Though he did not expect the storm, yet I know that he would be uneasy.” This was all that they could get the boy to say, so Mr. Burton was obliged to let him depart «iu the midst of the storm, after tarnishing him with an umbrella and a lantern, for the eveniug wan very dark, and the storm bid fair to last all night. After Mr. Bnrton came back to the room, he called Harry to him, and said: “Now, sou, that boy would sooner face this wild storm to-night than to distress his parents by remaining here. He has always, to my knowl edge, been a good son, but I dicPnot think life anxiety to save his father an anxious night ou his account, would lead him to take a long and dark walk of three miles in this storm.” “Won't the lightning strike him, father f” said Harr \ “No, my son; that boy is safe. God will take him caretally home, because ho honors and obeys his father and mpther. Here yon and Susie areetrembling with fear, close to us, and safely sheltered in a house; he walks through the dark forest to-night as calmly as though no wild storm was beating about his head, and as safely. 1 shall ate his father to morrow, and you will And my words true.” Sure enough, the uext evening, when their father returned home, Harry ran to meet him, exclaiming: ’ “Did Willie get home safely, fa ther F “Yes, my sou; God took him home safe and souud, as I told yon that he would.” “Would his father have been alarmed if he had stayed here F said Susie. “His father said that he knew Willie would come home, because he was so obedient aud tboughfnl of his parents’ wishes, but when the dark clouds came, and the rail} and thunder, he hoped that I would have detained him, though his mo ther said she knew Willie would not # stop.” That is an example for yon, my dear children, who read this (taper; au example which is true, and hap pened within my own knowledge. That boy never gave his parents an uneasy feeling ou his account. He was a good, obedient son, and he grew up to be a good man, and is now living to train his own children in the same path of obedieucc that he pursued. How many of the chil dren of this age would regard their parents’ feelings of anxiety to tho same extent that Willie did ? I hope a number would, and that many of you dear children are good and obedient to yonr parents. B.

Marsh’s Radical Cure Truu, A Baptist mission an in Greece furnishes the Journal aud Mfmaeuger of CiociaaaSJ the following state moot of tbe manner In which the elections for tbe Greek Parliament are condacted» “TVs candidates are self tiomina tod, but ao maa can be recognised as a candidate who does oot assure from out hundred of bis fellow-citi to th0 "agitation” af a distinguished uiooibor of tbs House of Lord*. Pinion do llootford, Bari of Lekr* tor, had a patty amoag the barons X known I Hereto or Bui reived the am of the mstti ut of this country, whs to recommend it tnthsMi king, but the king's party was strong- er than the earl’s. Out of the stmg fie h«t worn the two was bum the House of Commons. In lJfld, the earl had banu so fbr successful over Henry III. as to procure tbs passing of “The Provision of Oxford, 9 by which it was provided that ovary county should return two knights, aud certain boroughs one, some of them two burgesses, to aid tbe bar ons in carrying an the aflbirs of tbe kingdom. Karl Simon in leaded the knights and burgesses to not hi Air interest, but they, and especially the burgesses, soon showed bow well they understood their own. In UMU, the commons first assembled as a confirmed separate representation. Members were obliged to reside in the places they re|wesentod. Daring many years they received wages, being mere delegates or servants, aud boroughs became anxious to get rid of the honor of returning rep rcsentaftiven to whom they were obliged to pay salaries. The wage* was sometimes takes in kind, and a member retained in n maritime district would ooodeseeud to take in herrings what he could not get in the lawful coin of the realm. It was perfectly understood that nos attendance was met by nonpay ment. By degrees Parliament settled down to tbe two booses, aa at pres eut constituted: “Lords," in the up per ; “Gentlemen,* ia the lower boose. The head of the first may be said to be the sovereign, whose voice is beard there alone. Of the second bouse, tbe Hpeaker is the head, “Chrff Commoner” m the house m in England. At any period a man were bettor off an Mr. Speaker than as a monarch. “Mr, Speaker” ia certainly a most remarkable person. The only aaoin aly about him is supposed to be iu his title, as be never steaks, at least In tbe debates But, nevertheless, he is emphatically the Speaker when lie does open his month. He is the Sir Oracle, at whose voioe no dog dare bark. He speaks to exact pur- pose, and there is no api>eal against his derision. He is the ruler of tbe bonse when members are unruly. His qualification* include a thor oogh knowledge of all the laws, forms and customs of the assembly over which he presides He should haivc a noble preeonoc, a xmorou" voice, n dignified bearing, godlike impartiality, uninterrupted wakeful ness and heroic patience. He is tbe first commoner in England, which is a thousand fold higher dignity tliau that which is supposed to re side in the lowest order of peers. Hating performed his duties blame lessly, Mr. Speaker is never allowed to stand again on the floor of the house from which he had been raised to the chair. He is transferred to the House of I/ord*. aud becomes absorbed by that illustrious oorpora tion. Mind your huaimem. Be sure it to something nsnflil.

He gives his mode of cultivation and preparation of the ground in a subjoined rqiort of a crop which he entered for the premium at the Geor gia State Fair: , “Broke the land in March with a one horse torn plow, six inches deep. Hun off the rows three feet apart on the first of May with a turning shovel. Bedded with the same plow runniug the other way, and making the rows three feet apart. Made small bills with a hoe by drawing np soil light ly from the corners of the bods or squares between the fturows.

Prof. Daua, of Yale College, in bis new work on Corals, says that the chief source of coral Is the secretion of a living organism, occupying the lowest part of tbe scale of animal life, and which is known, in modem science, under the name of polyp. Coral to the stony frame which be longs to these animals as a skeleton belongs to an individual of tbe higher orders of the animal kingdom. “If we are astonished,” he remarks, “that so great deeds should proceed from the little and low, it ia because wc fail to appreciate that little things, even the least of living or physical existences in nature, arc, under God, expressions throughout of compre hensive laws—laws that govern alike the small and the great. It is not more surprising, nor a matter of more difficult comprehension, that a polyp should fbrtn stmetnres of stone called coral, than that the quadruped should form its bones, or the ntollusk its shell. The processes are similar, and so the result. The coral-made land is seldom more than ten or twelve feet above high tide. When first seen from the deck of a vessel, only a series of dark points appear just above tbe horizon. Soon after the points enlarge into the plumed tops of cocoa-unt trees, and a line of green is traced along the surface of the water. As you approach still rwAUCIC*. R.

There were causes for their popularity, among the chief of which were their great productiveneaa, and their safety from destruction by an j enemy making a raid through the j country. Daring the religious wars, ; which raged so loug in Ireland, thi*< j last consideration was a very itupor- | tant one: for while a field of grain ; could be destroyed in a few hours, by j turning cattle or hot sea into it, or | if dry, by simply setting fire to it, potatoes in the ground could be reached only by the slow process of digging. When first introduced into Scotlaud, it to said that the Puritans objected to it, liecause not mentioned in tho Bible, aud that it was not cultivated ss a field crop there before 1732.
