Fiiist Baiiies. ? A somewhat extended observation and a soii ary CXpei ieiioe, have convinced tin that first babies have a hard lime, l'arent* must have two or three children before they know what a baby is ; know how to treat it, and acquire patience suflicient to treat it properly. The p>cr little fellows that have the mi-foi tune to come along first have to educate patents to their tai-k, and in th*, process they get spank ed and shaken, anil abused. After a man has tluce or four children, he learns that whipping, or striking a child less than twin years of age,4 is barbarism. We knew one " paternal head " w ho struck his first child when only six weeks old. the ass actually believing that the child knew better than to crv. ami that he stopped crvitrg at that par ticu'ar time because he stiuck him. We carry cetjaiu notions of children ami of family gnvoinmctif, into married life, anil the first child is always the victim of these notions. Ami not nlone of these, for.the parents have not learned sell contfol, and a l?aby is whipped quite as often because the patent is mi patient sr angry, as because it is vicious or intractable. Wc inflict on onr first children 'he floggings we ought to have fur our own impatience or ftetfulness This pounding cliildtcn before they be come, in (JodV eye, morally responsible beings, is very strange badness.
