Heavy with the woes of Tim*—

In your chorus sob and groan t
Ah. ye always seemed to me

Something softer let me find—
Tlirilling bird or joyous wind?
These are soothing, these are sweet,
Where they in the woodland meet,
Tet why any question make ?

PARENTS.
. To Parents.
Parents can never know nor fully
appreciate, in this world, the power
and influence of their example on
their ’ children. It becomes all pa-
reuts to ponder well and pray much
over their duties to their children.
The following is suited to excite
reflection in the paternal bosom:
The intrinsic mine of every child
invests the parental relation with
surpassing interest. Immortality Ls
the birthright of every child; and it
is a birthright of which he can never
be defrauded. Man can make him a
cripple; a lunatic; a slave; a cor]wo;
but, in his nobler nature, he can
never make him mortal. It is in the
power of hnmnn selfishness to inflict
sickness, and poverty, and madness,
and servitude, and death; but anni
hilation is beyond its reach.
The glories of creation, which
have given us so mneh delight and
rapture, we weep to think that they
must all pass-away. Yonder tree lias
stood in the forest since the days of
the flood, and drank its nourishment
from the dust of a thousand genera
tions; but the hand of death is on it,
and the next blast will bring it to the
earth. And those stars too, which,
“scattered like flowers through the
bine fields of heaven,” have bloomed
and gladdened us so long, must fade,
and droop, aud fall. And that great
king of day, who has looked down
so lorig npon onr sorrows and joys—
l«is eyes most grow dim, his hour
must come, death si.nil cast a pull
over hia burnished throne. Bnt the
noul—when shall it die, when Shall it
be carried to tlie tombf After ages
. liave passed away, countless as tlie
leaves of the forest, countless as the
sands on the shores of eternity, that
hoy will still be alive, and will either
be a seraph or a fiend, a glorified
saint or a damned spirit. My soul
is overwhelmed within me, when I
think of the height of glory or the
depth of shame to which each child
in every family is destined. Take a
child from a hovel and put him on a
throne, and how greatly you have
exalted him! how- wonderful tlie
change! You can only stand still
ami lift your hands in dumb aston
ishment. And yet, what have you
done for himT Will he weep less
than other nient Will he suffer
less ! Will he live longer than other
men ? Crowns can keep away
neither sorrow, nor pain, nor death
—those may have th«?in who want
them. Bnt that boy—Oh! that boy
shall be a priest and prince where
tears, apt! groans, and knells are not
known. The crown which he shall
wear will be an eternal diadem.—
That boy may be a king—ah! he
may be a fiend! His career may
end in heaven—alas! it may end in
hell! Instead of a crown, he may
pillow his naked head on the rocks
of perdition. And, father, mother,
uincli of the responsibility of this
alternative is cast on yon. Y'ou may
settle the question: “What manner
of child this shall be f” Yonr faithful
ness or unfaithfulness may make
him a peer of angels or a companion
of devils. God give yon grace to
appreciate yonr responsibilities, and
be faithful to your trust.—Mother’s
Magazine.
YOUTH.
Seeking a Situation.
In these “times which try men's
souls,” Uow many are there in our
fair Southern land, which were raised
in affluence, who are now earnestly
seeking situations, where they may,
by honest industry, obtain the moans
of supporting lift. Even in ordinary
times riches, often very unexpectedly,
“take to themselves wings uud fly
away,” how much more iu these days
of revolution. Sadly true it is that
there Is little Wealth now left in the
“Sunny South” to “fly away.” It is
very important then that all mtr
beloved youths should endeavor to
fit themselves for some ixmition in
which they may gain an honest
and respectable living; not only for
themselves, but, if need be, for oth
ers. Tlie heart of many a promising
youth in onr land, beats high with
the purpose of being, ere long, the
stay and support of a widowed mo
ther and helpless little brothers and
sisters. Aud nutuy a refined and
gentle maiden is even now toiling
for the same noble eml.
Now, iu order to secure a gin si
situation, it is necessary for a young
man to produce, from those who
know him, testimonials of his pre
vious good character, and of his |hw
sensing such attainments as are req
uisite for the desired ]K»st. Bnt how
are these recommendations to Ik*
procured !
“I)r- , will yon recommend
me t" The gentleman addressed was
at the head of an iiii]M»rtunt educa
tional institution. The speaker was
a recent graduate of the same, who,
not being in many of the ITnfideut’s
classes, hail not come mneh under
his personal observation. Before re
plying, the doctor o]>ew*d a book,
which lay on the table before him,
and turned to the pages on which
were marked the grades of the class
to which the young man , belonged.
Finding then* the evidence that his
record, for both eoudiiet and scholar
ship, was high throughout his entire
course, he turned to the applicant
and replied. With emphasis :
“JVs, J trill,"—and immediately
wrote him a strong puper. Two
other graduates stood by, who looked
as if they too would like to be n*e-
ouuuended ; but they did not venture
to ask it—and why T Because they
kuew that their record would not
bear inspection; and, as tliey had,
while at school and college, sowed
the seeds of idleness aud neglect to
duty, so now they must reap tin*
fruit—no capital to start iu life ; for
a good character is the best capital
a young man can have.
We heard the gentleman alluded
to s]H*aking of the n*s|M>nsibility he
felt in having such cases to deal with.
He said he did not feel, as many do,
that it was a fa ror he was bestowing
npon n yotuig man, when he gave
him such a paper, lie held thut* if a
youth hail attended faithfully to his
duties us a student, and hud made a
fair record, he had a right to the
certificate of his character, upon
starting out iu lift. On the other
hand, faithfulness to truth, and to
employers, imbued him to lie scrupit
lously careful to recommend only
according to merit. Bo well was this
known, that a strong recommenda
tion from Dr. was almost cer
tain to secure the fortunate possessor
the desired situation.
Now, beys ami girls, what we wish
to impress ujsjii you, is that yon an*
now writing your diameters for
future life. As you go to m*1ioo1
your teachers are, day by day. taking
notes (whether they do it with jien
and ink, or only in their own minds,
makes little difference) ft your con
duct, your studiousnesa^iwtr relia
bility. We do not wisli any of our
young readers to have to take up, a
few years hence, the lamentation so
often heard—“I did not appreciate
iny privileges when I was at school,
and did not improve my time ns I
onght to have done; and now it is
too late to remedy the evil.” As you
move about among yonr ncqttain
tanees, the eyes of men of iiitclligem-c
and influence are upon yon, and they
too, when yon least think of it, an*
“taking notes." This is especially
true of yonr pastor, and your teach
ers.
Even among .voting yourplay-inatoK,
yon are niak i n g vonr record. 1 u a few
years they will be the men and
women of the land. Many of them
will rise to jMisitions of influence,
where it may lie in their power to
serve yon. It may then be an im
portant matter to you to have in
their memories the record of the
diligent, faithful, earnest student;
the kind, pleasant and reliable friend,
the honourable, npright, and courte
ous playmate.
Said a gentleman, who was enquir
ing for a suitable person to fill a
position in his employ : “I want one
who is reliable. I want to feel that
when I order a thing to be done,- it
will be attended to without my
having to think any more about it.
I don’t want a clerk that will have to
be looked after to see that he attends
to hifiS duty. Now, there is H.; I
can rely ujsjn him. He has been
with me a year, and I have never
caught him in a blunder yet.”
Such a character as that is above
price to a young man. This is what
every employer wants above every
thing else—reliability; in other words,
faithfulness in the discharge of every
duty, however irksome; and this, to
be genuine, must bt founded on
Christian principle.
Young readers «lo yon uot wish to
gain such a character t Thou begin,
while you are young, to be faithful
in little things; for our Saviour tells
us that he thut is faithful in that
which is least, is fuithftil also in
much ; and he that is unjust iu the
least, is also unjust in much; a truth
which we daily see illustrated.—Ex
change.
CHILDHKN.
Taught by the Bee*.
l.ittle Lottie Millwood was suit! to
haw* a “good heart.” I will tell you
how she earned that reputation.—
She, like n vast number of jssiple,
Imd two sets of manners. One wet
sin* employed when from home, the
other she used when In her own
family ciivle. She has a very bright
fat-**, much grace, a pleasant manner
and flue natural abilities. These
features favorably impressed all
strangers anil won her many frit-mis.
If she was invited nut to h|m*ii,1 an
afternoon or eve, she niudc every
effort to gain the love of those shout
her. Indeed, her eunuitig hud too
mueli of hypocrisy—one of the most
hateful of sins. She would insist on
willing the dishes, nursing the Imliy,
ironing, sewing |mteli work or enrjs*t
rugs—in fine her fit of industry
prompted her to do anything she
could perform. Kcmcmlier all this
was for “other folks,” and tliese
“other folks” said that she was
lovely, charming, gotsl, industrious
or that she was a “good girl."
Now, my little renders, let us take
it view of 1 sit tie Millwood as she
up|M*nrvd at home, ller |Nireuts
were ill moderate eirmiiistanees uud
could not ufford to'liin- a servant.
Her mother hud spinal disease ami
daily suffered from great deliilit.t.
What ditl (pttie dot Dili sin* show
a very strong desire to render service
to tfuit kind amt sickly mother t
Not she! Tlu* coal hod might stand
empty all day for ull site rared.
\*oti never found her offering to go
into the tellur for rual. (Hi! tsi—
••mother will do that if I don't.”
Tlie net of that tmithcr almost erased
her with |uiiii. Du you say Lottie
was “gotsl hearted f* I ilo not.
How sltout tin* dish waslirtfg at
home? This undutifVd child would
manage to give her unit her the sli|t.
Hhe would pi into the field or lam*
to play, uud the labor was is-rfornietl
by out* who should have Urn in Iter
lied. There was a little laibv in this
house, but Lottie seldom Hunted it
although she wns eleven years okl.
l’uor Mrs. Millwood might rout-
plain ami even weep, but Isittte was
like stoue. If she rocked the cradle,
it was tltine with an ill until red kick
that gave her mother sorrow.
Do you say site wns “pitst heart
ed r I do not. If slit* was, w hy
didn't she show it when it was most
needed: Then* wen* many waya
Lottie could have relieved her moth
er, lint her idea wits to let her
imnnita wait on her.
“Good hearted P I any away
with such a heart! No child Inis u
good heart w ho does not try to tin
those simple acts of duty.
Y'ou may ask why her parentis
did nut whip her. Indeed sis- often
deserved it, bnt the mother hud not
the strength of body to cope with
her stout daughter. Then she, like
many parents, was so easy that she
preferred what she called “pence”
to any family trouble. Tlie futln r,
at work nil day, saw hut little of his
child, and that little Uittie mnnnp-d
to have of a lietterunalitv.
I know the girl mn a good face in
tlie pietnre, bat really I must say
she was lmd. That is just what she
was—bad.
(hie <lay her ppor mother thought
she would do something to enn* her
of her laziness nnd indifference.. An
idea stmek her.
“My child,” said she, “I wnnt you
to go into the yanl nnd stand by the
beehive. But use caution and do
not approach too near, or the bees
will sting yon.”
“Why do yon wisMMne to do that r
said she.
“Isittie," replied her mother, “yon
oblige me by doing us I request, and
I will explain my motive after yon
retnm. Now observe whnt I ask.
Stand near the hive, anil for some
mtnntea, watch the bees. After you
have done so, (mine and tell me what
you thnnght and then ! will give my
reason for the request.”
Lottie complies). While on her
way to that hive, yon see in the
picture, mid she to herself, “I
wonder what mother means! I
never heard of such an otld wish.
However, I will look for some min
utes. There is one thing certain-
while looking, I will not be* work
ing.”
The hive was approached by Lot
tie with a basket on her arm. For a
long time she seemed absorbed by
the steady labor of the industrious,
little honey makers. She saw there
was no idleness in their residence
After a While an idea struck this
way ward girl.
“I have it now!” she exeluimed.
“I have it uow! 1 clearly sec why-
mot her wanted me to watch the
bees.”
Theu site thought and thought
again, ller conscience w u» beginning
to iustruct her. .After u jionse she
left, say lug, “I will now pi to mother
aad see what she meant.”
“Well, mother, I watched tin*
lies**.”
“What did you see, my dear T”
“I saw them at w-ork making
honey.”
“You saw them at what f cried
the parent, anxious to impress her
lesson.
“I saw them at trork making
hooey."
“Tell uie, Lottie, did they try to
shun their work! Did uny seem to
lie luzjj f”
“Not one!” replied the girl.
“Theu, my child, tlie bees ”
“Mother, dear motlu-r,” cried site,
throwing her arms ulsiut tlie uerk
! of her iinn-nt, “I see it all. 1 know
, shut you will say. Yon will tell uie
that the lives an* more industrious
than 1. I have learned a lesson uud
I tliuuk yon for it. Believe me you

The First Thousand Dollars.
Tlie first thousuud dollars that a
young man, after going isit into the
world to act for liimarlf, earns and
•ares, will generally settle the quee
tion of bmuucas life with him. Then-
may Is* exception* to this statement,
yet for a rule wr think that it will
liold true.
The first condition is that the
.vising uiun actually earns tlie, thou
sand dollar* iu question, lie does
not inherit this sum. It does ms
issue to him by a streak of past luck,
as the remit of a fortunate venture in
tin* puivli4.w aud sab* of a hundred
dm res m stock. It is the fruit of
I* rson" industry, lie gives bis
time ami hi* hdmr fur it. While hr
is thus earning ami sating it, he
must rani two or three, or |wrha|i*
four time* as much, to |u\ Ins cur
rent ex|M>nar*. He is ruuarquenlly
held sternly t« the task of industry
Air a very rnii«iih*r*Wi- |s*rind. The
direct rutisrqocner to him is a steady,
eisitinmnw, and solid discipline in
| the habits of industry, in |sstieut, per
sistellt, forecasting uitd self denying
efforts, breaking up all the tendencies
to indolence and frivolity, and mak
iug him a w atchful economist of time.
He not only learn* how to work, lKit
lie also acquire!-- tin* love of work ;
and nun cover, be learns the value of
the sum which In* has thru saves! out
of liis earnings. He has toiled for it;
lie lias iiliamesl its slow iurresuw*
from linn- to time; anil in his esti
mate it nqm-aent* so many months
or years of |irartical labor, ills ideas
of life ore shaped, by his own experi
ence.
These natural effect* of earning the
first tlMKiaund dollars we hold to la-
very large iM-nefit*. They at4 just
the qualities of mind and lusty which
an* most likely to secure business
' success la after yefirs. They consti
tnte tlu* I test practical education
which a man can have as a worker
iu this warring world. They an*
gained in smijkui for lift’s purism*,
at the o]ieniug i**ri<*l. Just when
they are wunted, when foolish notions
an* most likely to mislead an inexpe
rienced liniin, nnd when, too, then* is
a Ail! op|*irtnnity for their expansion
und development in later years. Men
have bnt one lift .to live, and hence
they start from opening manhood but
once. And (be manner in which they
start, the pnr|Mmrs they have hi view,
and the habits they form, will volun
tarily determine the entire aeqnel of
i their rnrecr on earth. To succeed,
men most hare the elements of anc
cess to themselves. (hie great reason
why tlierc an* an many useless, ineffi- 1
eient and poverty- stricken men on
earth—or, rather, boys seeming to
j be men—K-onnist* ill the simple fact
they- did not tOprt right. A promi
nent remain why tlie children of the
rich so frequently amount to nothing i
may be found in the luxury, ease, and
indolence which marked the com
meneeuient of their lives. It is the
luw- of God that we should be work
ers on earth; and no one so well
consults the Iws^evelopmcut of his
lieing as whan hWRnfomm his prac
tice to this law. Tlie workers in

Starring Finns Going Round the
Mom.—ThP Russiun Government has
derided npon assisting the starving
Finns by sending them out bodily to
colonize the A moor regions. An old
German vessel has been bought for 1
this purpose at the price of 30,000
roubles, and the emigrants will be !
curried by installments from Bremen. ’
What as Old Experienced Farmer earn
Said.
That to aow foul seed, is as !uid as
to get the itch or measles; ami much
worse to get rid t*f them.
That stork nml seed must he re
newed ; or like land withmit manure,
they will rnn oot.
That a man innst take to the
gnmml that he tills, or the ground
will take him.
That it is gore) to make mistake*
■nun*time*, s* that will whip you in
to avoid them.
That ashes see good on meadows
when the season is dry ; also on pota
toes. root* nnd other things that
require moistuix*.
That it is always good to be up
early, not only to work, but to see to
things, that all is right—fences up
ami cattle in their* places.
That it in s good thing to lisve
your work done early In the spring;
and it very good thing to have it
done early in tbe foil, so that you sre
ready for tbe first foul weather.
That it is good to keep an aeeoiuit
of things, and know where you stand.
Tlmt it is a very good plan to treat
yonr boys like your boys, and not
like strangers, this will keep them at
home.
That to sbttne a “erittur," is to
abuse s member of the fomily.
That it is m>t humbling yourself to
go to a neighbor and ask his advice,
especially when he surpasses you In
his crops. And so you must act in
return. Get light wherever you can;
and communicate it: that is the
doctrine. To he humble like the
earth you work—that is a good way
of living. It prp|mres you to go tu
that earth again when you die.—Cbf
