XS XT WELL TO BE SAD I
Buiqiit, sweet hope, dispel the shadows
That are gathering on ray brow ;
"Will they always filler darkly
O'er my hearty as thoy do now I
Will the stormy cloud* that gather
tne voua^ soul which dreams in the
smiles nitvi laughing oven of the little
cherub; to teach it its lirst lessons of
i>ve, gentleness, and gratitude; to unfold
in a thousand ways, by words of
love and looks of tenderness, which
nly a parent's heart can devise, those
little feelings of right and wrong,
which must be so moulded as to form, j
in latter life, those nice and delicate j
perceptions which mark the upright
and conscientious being, on whom |
Heaven smiles approvingly: to eradicate,
or rather to give a direction and '
coloring to the euibrvo passion which
beautify or mar the character and ties-1;
tiny of every individual being?this is 1
an office which angels mignt delight 1
to be engaged in.
Here is where education begins?1
in the mother's arms?in the cradle?i
in the nursery. We speak of it as if it
were the work of our schools and acad-'
eiuies solely?as if ir began with the;
herd, How absurd! It is the heart
?the heart, wliuiiCv. are the issues ut
life ? whence all evil proceeds?where
ail good is received?that is the soil ,
where the seeds oi education should tirst
be sown?sown with a skilful, gentle i
hand, and voting germs, watched o- er, |

jirtiuuu, icaruu wiiii parental teuiler- I
ness, watered with a iaether's tears !
uud nurtured by a mother's prayers.
(J ye .parents! t'allil this mission I
well. Ye are sowing seeds which will
produce happiness or misery, life or
death.
How beautiful is infancy! Behold j
it in its cradled slumbers! Beautiful t
as a dream of heaven, is the angelic ex-!
preasioii of that little face. A smile I
plays uroutnl that dimpled mouth,'
<alni, placid, holy, as if the little sleep- ;
or wore listening to an angel's whisper.1
Though there is alas ! even here, the i
fatal acrui which we all inherit, it,
has not as yet developed itself in actual
transgressions.
No malicious temper has inflamed
that litre heart, no unkind or bitter
words has passed those innocent lips.
The blush of shame has never tinged
those Idlv chucks ; that little hand was
never raised in anger; that tiny foot
never spurned even the meanest reptile
that draws its existence from the
great source of life and power. It
knows nothing of the cold hearted, led
low prolusions ot a vain, deceitful |
world, it has never tele the chill ot
disappointment, the sorrow of bereaved
ati'ection, the misery of confidence
betrayed. The poisoned arrow of suspicion
litis never touched that guileless
heart, the breath of siaudor has
never east a blight upon that fair brow.
Would 'that it might ever bo thus;
but it cannot be. Sin is in the world.?
The cup of lite cannot be dark without
failing its bitter waters, and the heart;
w.ll feel and know their influence.? |
The tempter will woo wi;h fascinating |
O'er ray pathway hover still ;
Can I not quickly dispel them,
]iy a tinu undaunted will2
la it well to brood in badness
,0'or every little ill and care,
To make o'licr foiks unhappy
I5y t!ie dismal face we wear.
No ; this world is what we make it?
Then let's make it bright and fair ;
Let us make each other happy
J?y the pleasant smile wo wear.
Lei's forget by 'our endeavors,
lu cheering other's care and wo
All our little petty troubles
Stroking flowers where'er we go.
Not for self aione we're living?
The hand of friendship we'll extend
To the grief and sorrow laden,
And kindly aid we'll ever lend.

Infancy.
If i ..... - -
now noamiiui is infancy! Its!
rounded limbs, its tiny lingers, its i
dimpled inoutli mid rosy smiles, are all i
beautiful?beautiful as the realization
of a poet's dream. When the little'
innocent, jumping and springing in its [
nurse's at itis, iisps, in its baby glee,
the sacred names, ''Papa," ''Mamma," (
a new thnil of joy is awakened in i
cueli parent's heart. They hear the
lir?t audibio expression of' intelligence I
i.oni that embryo mind?that mind so |
plastic as to receive the impress of their
slightest touch. How pure and holy
now is their oflice! To watch those
faculties, as they exp.md in the sunlight
of parental arlbction as flowers
bloom in spring-time; to bend thein to
the sublime influences of truth ; to nourish
them with the pure precepts of
the gospel, and strengthen them in its
glo.ioiia light; in short, to draw out
smile, artfully concealing beneath the
flimsy garb of pleasure the misery ami
guttering that follow his pathway.
O! how soon, then, should that
young heart be taught to pray, in sincerity
and in the truth. "Lead us not
into toiutpntion 1" God's Spirt alone can
subdue these unhallowed influences,
tame all ' ' unholy passions, ail unlawful i
desires." That and that alone, can
calm the troubled waves oflil'o,sweeten
its sorrows, and hightcn its joys.
MIGNONETTE.
Three Birds With one Stone!
jL young man who boarded at a
house in the country where there was
a several coy damsels, who seemed to
imagine that the men were terrible
creatures, whom it was an unpardonable
sin to look at, was one day accosted
by an acquaintance ami asked what
he thought of the young ladies with
I whom lie hoarded. Herenlied that
jtliey were very shv ami reserved.
4So they are,' replied the other, and
so much that no gentleman could get
near enough to tell the color of their,
eyes.'
4Thnt may be so,' said the boarderj
quickly,'but I will stake a million I.
can kiss them all three without any j
trouble.'
'That you cannot do?it is an achieve-,
inent which neither you nor any one|
else can accomplish.'
The other was positive, and invited,
his friend to the house to witness the'
triumph.
They entered the room together and
the three girls were all home, sitting
beside the mother, they all looked as:
prim and demure as John Itodgers at'
the stake.
Our hero assumed a very grave as-!
pecteven to dejection and having looked
wistfully at the clock, breathed a
s'gli us deep as algebra as long as a
female parting dialogue at a street!
dour. liis singular deportment now
of course, attracted the attention of
the girls, who east their alow opened
eyes upwards to his countenance.
Perceiving the impression he had
made, lie turned to ins companion and
said in a doleful voice?
'It wants three miumes ot the time.'!
'Do you apeak of dinnerV said the
old lady, laying down her sewing|
work.
'Dinner?' said ho with bewildered
aspect, and pointing as if unconscious-;
ly, with curled Ibrdiuger at the clock. |
A silence ensued during which the!
female portion of the household glared
at the young man with irrepressible
en riosity.
Von will see me decently interred,'I
he said, turning towards his friend.
His triend was as much puzzled as,
any person present and embarrassment:
added to the intended effect; but the old i
lady ,being no longer able to contain
herself, cried? . I
Mir (J , pray \V4/at* do you.
apeak off' h
'Nothing,' answered ho in a lugu-. <
briou * tone, kbut that last night a spirit!
appeared to me'.'
ilero the girls rose to their feet)
and drew near.
4And the spirit gave tne warning j
that I should die exactly at twelve o'clock
to-dav and you see it wants but
halt'a minute of that time!*
The girls turned pule, and their hidden
sympathies were at. once awaken-J
ed for the doomed and departing one, j
they stood chained to the spot, looking,
alternately at the clock and untortu-!
nate youth.
lie walked to the oldest of the girls,
and taking her hand, bade her a sol-|
emu tare well, lie imprinted a kiss on
her trembling lips, which she did not
attempt to resist'
lie bade the second and third faro-1
well in the same tender and affection- j
ate manner, ilis object war achieved,1
and that moment the clo -k struck j
twelve.
Hereupon lie looked around sur-'
prised and ejaculated?
4Who would have believed that an
apparition would tell such a lie! It1
was probably the gbost of Aununias
and Sapphiro.'
It was sometime before tlio sober
maidens understood l.<e joke, and when
tliov. did they evinced no resentment.!
The first kiss broke the ice, and thanks
to the 4glioat,' they discovered there
wa> some pleasure in contact with a
boarded cheek.
Thk Kitciik.v.--We will give to intellect,

The Gkeen Eyed Monsteb.?The
Boston Gazette relates the following
case of the green-eyed monster who
mukes the meat he fecdeth on."
,lA newly married couple arrived in
our city recently, and took lodging at
ono of the fashionable hotels, to pass
away that propitious season ? alas 1
too brief?known as the honeymoon.
Their happiness was the cause of envy
among many, for not & cloud appeared
to over-shadow tlio enjoyment of the
passing hours, until a doctor was sent
for in great baste, to relievo the lady
of a dose of laudanum which threatened
to terminate her lite. The skill of
the doctor saved the wife, and after
the bride returned to consciousness,
she was asked what motive could have
induced her to commit such a wicked
act. She ret died: "/ saw a lady
wink at my nwsband at the table and
Id'uVnt want to live!"
Gkneuous.-A writer intho Burlington
Sentinel says that in one of the hack
towns of a neighboring State, where it !
is the custom for the district schoolteacher
to 4l?onrd around,'the following
incident occurred, and is vounched for
by high authority.
A year or two ago, an allotment being
made in the usual manner for the
benefit of the school-mistress, it happened
that the proportion of one man
was just two days and a-half.
The teacher sat down to dinner on
the third day and was beginning to
eat, when the man of the house addressed
her as follows:
'Madam, I suppose your hoarding
time is out, when you have eaten half
a dinner, but as I don't want to hu|i
mean, you may eat, it you choose, about i1
as much as usual.* j'
_ . .. I (
Faik Bi.ay.?At the moment when,
on the 11th of October, I7i?7,the British !
licet under Admiral Ducan, and the
1 hitch licet commanded by Do Winter,!
wore about to engage, two sailors passing
by Admiral 1).lean's cabin, saw
him on hi* knees. I
"My eyes, Jack!'* exclaimed one,,
"what is the Admiral aliout there?" j
"Braying to Heaven," replied the <
oilier.
"Braving for what ?"
"That the Lord nun* give us victo-j I
J ? I'
"Wei! mow, that's a blasted shame. '
? We are well ai>le to lick them oat*- !
selves. Besides, give t!ie beggars a I

Tough.?The Boston liee, a paper
notorious tor its veracity, says that a
man up in New Hampshire went out
running--lie day this spring?he saw
a ilock !' pigeons sitting on a limb olh
an old pine, so he dropped .a ball into |
his gun and tired. The ball split the !
limb, which closed up and caught the h
toes of all the birds in it. lie saw
that he had got them all, so he fasten- ,
ed two balls together with wire and i
tired, cut the limb otf, which fell into
tho river; he then waded in and j
brought it ashore. On counting them 1
there were over three hundred pigeons,
and in his boots wore two barrels
ofshad.
Speak Kindly to the Ekking.?No
bad man is ever brought to repentance
bv angry words, bitter and scornful
reproaches. He fortifies himself againt
reproof, and hurls back foul
charges 111 tlie tace of bis accuser.?
Vet guilty and hardened as he seems,
he has a heart in his bosom and may
be melted to tears by a gentle voice.?
Whoso, therefore, can restrain his disposition
to chide, and can bring hiinselt
down to u fallen brother, will soon
find a way to better feeling within.?
Hity and patience are the two keys
which unlock the human heart.
A bill to punish drunkenness
hits been introduced into the Legislature
ot' Massachusetts. It provides as
follows:
"Section 1. Any person who shall
bo guilty of the crime of drunkenness,
by the voluntary use of intoxicating liquors,
shall for thejirst offence be punished
by a lined not exceeding five dollars,
or by confinement in the house
of correct ion for a term not exceeding
thirty days.

are curious to know how many feet in
