From Lift, IHttxtraled How to Earn a Home. The other evening I anno home with nn extra ten-dollar bill in my pocket?money that Iliad earned by f?ut-of-hours work. The fact if, I'm a deik in a down-town store,nt a salary of $000 per annum, and a pretty wife and baby to support out of it.

"Why, Rothschild himselt isn't a circiunetancc to mc! Well, I came homo with my extra bill, and showed it triumphantly to Kitty, who of coursc was delighted with my industry and thrift. 'Now, mv love.' said T. 'init n?l.l iliic ir. ? J our account at the bank, and with interest at the end of the year' Forthwith I commciich] casting interest and calculating in my lirain. Kitty was ftilent, and rucked the cradle musingly with her foot. ' I'vo been think inc. Ilari-v.* sbf? if. tera moment's pause, 'that since you've got this extra money wo might afford to buy a new rug. This is getting dreadful shabby, my dear, you must sec.' I looked dolefully at the rug; il was worn and shabby enough, that was a fact. 4I can gel a beautiful new velvet pattern for seven dollars,' resumed my wife. 'Velvet?seven dollars !' groaned I. 'Well, then, a common tufted lug like this, would olny cost three,' said my cautious betterhalf. who, seeing she couldn't carI - iy uer iirsi amoiuous point, wisely withdrew her guns. 'That's more sensible,' said I. 'Well, we'll nee about it.' 'And there's another thing I want,' continued my wife, putting her hand uoaxingly on my shoulder, 'and it's not at all extravagant, cither.' 'What i? it?' I asked, softening rapidly. 'I saw such a lovely silk dress-pattern on Canal street, this morning, and I fan gut it for six dollars?only six dollars. Iiarry ! It's ii.. -I.. * ? * uucn|>vsi iiuiig i ever saw." 'But haven't you got a very pretty green) eilk dress ?' 'That old tiling! Why, Harry, I've worn it ever since we've been married,' 'Is it soiled, or nigged ?' 'No, of course; but who war.ts to wear tlio same green dress forever? Everybody knows it is tho only silk I have.* 'Well, what then }' 'That's just a man's question,' pounled Kilty. "And 1 suppose you have not observed how old fasbioued my bounet is get ting!' 'Why, I thought it looked very neat and tasteful binee you put on that black velvet winter trimming.' Of course?you men have no taste in such matters.' \V e were silent for a moment; I'm afraid we both felt a littla cioss and out of humor with one another. In fact, on my journey home, I had entertained 6erious thoughts of exchanging my old silver watch for a more tuodem time-piece of gold, and had mental]y appropriated the $10 to furthering that purpose. Savings-bank relied ions had come later. As we sat before our fire, each wrapped iu thought, ottr neighbor, Mr. Wihnot, knocked at the door. He was employed at the same store as myself, aud his wife was an old family friend. *1 want you to congratulate me,' he said, taking a scat. 'I have purchased that little cottagc out on the Bluomingtou road today.' 'What! that beautiful little wooden cottage with the piazza and lawn, and fruit garden behind !' exclaimed Kitty, almost enviously. 'Is it possible V I cried. A little cottage home of inv own. iiisf. 111?* T "ft? ^ J J ...... * IIIIU until admired on tlie Bloomingdale road, liad always been the one crowning ambition of my life?a distant and almost hupelcss point, but no less earnestly desired. 'Why, Wiltnot.'said I, 'how did this lisppen I You've only been in business eight or ten years longer than I, at a salary but a trifle larger . than mine, yet I could as soon buy up the mint as purchase a cottage like that.' 'Well,' 6aid my neighbor, 'we have all been working to ^thia'etijl for year*. My wife has darned, patched, mended, and saved?^we have lived on plain fare, and done *itli the cheapest things.

Tbe autho's plant i embraces biographical notices of disinguish; ed ministers of the leading denomination* : of Christians in the United Slates, from tbe ' early settlement of ih?* country to the close J of the year 1855. Prefixed to each Dei nomination is a historical sketch of its rise I and progress; and in connection with the name of each clergyman i? a biographical i sketch by Dr. Sprague, which introduces i notices written, written, whenever practica| l?le, by personal friends of the deceased, giv! ing prominent characteristics, anecdotes il! lustrative of mental peculiarities, or impor* i tant facts and events in the lives of the per! sons commemorated. These biographical I notices are chronologically arranged. ll is obvious Hint H general design of this kind, if properly executed, would give to the public a portrait-gallery of tlio highest interest and value. A reference to the volumes before us will satisfy every one that no pains have been spared to make the execution perfeet. The pens of the most eminent living men, laymen ns well ns clcryvm**n, ha%re been put under contribution From several independent sources, in most instances. biographical notices of a man dis*-tinguisheil for ability or usefulness, have befin collected, nnd thus, his character is pre^euted in a variety of aspects, and fifcm separate points of view. The taut and delicacy of a line catholic spirit are maintained throughout: so that, a <r<*i.nrut ? - ? e? ; "?jiside of particular denominational enclosures, and independent of considerations of suet-, has full scope for its exercise.

Of all articles of dress, says the Boston I Courier, none basso much influence upon I tlie opinion ot the public as tlie hat. A ! "sohckiug bad hat" is the expression of the ' extremes of disapproabation of tin* Ulan who : wears it. We do not think an opinion of i character founded upon a fact of tins kind, | I is absolutely lo bo relied upon. \V<j can I ! conceive of a man's wearing a bad hat and . ! being a good citizen, and cxetnplaiy father j | of a family all honest man, and even a Chris- ! j tain. Hut we admit the prima facie evi ' j deuce is against it. Look at the criminals ; in the dock : they are without a single ex I ception persons distinguished by the bad- ! I 11ess of lheir hats. Tlie liist step towards j j reforming a convict is to give liiin a new ! ! hilt. A hat excites in the first place, the ! emotion ? it may be a deceptive one?of | respet lability. The man who pills il on, I t teds liken gentleman; it may be a mistaken , feeling. lie walks tin: struct with the eon- ; : suiousncssuf seeming virtuous if not of being ; so. Ail gru.it philosophers know that iiotlij ing has a more poweifui tendency to make I a man good, limn to consider and treat him : as such : and universally, the man who wears | a good hat is held to be a good man, until | the opposite is proved. A constable would < ; never arrest a well hat ted man on mete sua- j pieiott. lie would require the oat It of at j j le:i->t two respectable witnesseH. This ease : against him must be ll igrant, or heavy j j damages would be the consequence ol so ! i ra?>li an act. | On the other hand, the wearer of a bad hut; \ one knocked in at. the sid<>, jumped down at i tile top ; tilled with dust, because it is iniio- < | cent of tiic hiiish ; wont in the rim down . to tlie smooth ; such a person is a just oh- , i jeet of public suspicion.

If he , I carries ahont a subscription paper, in behalf j nfthe must licseiviiicr chaiitv, the greatest . , ? . j philaiithopisls snub ant! refuse liiin. Who j would venture into the presence of his mis- j Ircss, in such a hat, ami not expert an in- | slant dismissed ? Who would dare lo put j the question to (he idol of hi* idolatry, in , such a hat? W hat woman of proper sennibililv would not reject, without a m<>ni'-nts ; hesitation, the suitor at her feel, whose hat: was open to anv one of the above criticism, j Mr. l'eter Magnus was <piite right to be ' anxious about tile hat, of which he said that ; money would not buy such another, w hen | on his way to make proposals lo the j middle aged lady. A great moral tru'.h is ! | illustrated in the story of this gentleman's ; j wooing and its rc.-ults, so well tol<l in 1 *n:k- j ! wick. It becomes then, a social and ! j moral duty nut only to give heed to our i ways but. to our hats. 1 ?<T' ? - ? The Mother Moulds the Man. The following is a practical illustration of this ttnth : "When I lived among the Choctaw In1 ilians, I held a consultation with one uf their chiefs ic.-|iecling the huccit-sivi! stages of their progress in the arts ol civilized life; and among other things lie informed me that, at their $lart, they fell into a great mistake?they only sent their hoys to school. These boys came home intelligent men, hut they married uneducated and uncivilized wives?and the uniform result was the ! children wete ail like their mothers. The i | lather soon lost all his interest in both wife | I and children. "'And now,* said be 'if we could rdiwnti. i but one class of our children, we should I j choose the girls for when they i mothers they educate their sous."' This i.| tu the point, and it is true. Nu nation can I become fully enlightened when its mothers j are not in a good degree, qualified to discharge the duties of the home work of edu- j cation. This is a truth, says the Richmond Dis- I patch, so fully understood among civilized people, that it needs no enforcement. Hut there is another truth, that is not generally remembered, and that is, t at the mother ! raoi.I Is the man physically as well as rnorI ally. The medical journals of the day, and j observant foreign travellers, speak often of j the physical degeneracy of the American ( people. They say thai w? do not live out half our days, and are a cadaverous, dyspepJ lie and consumptive race, far inferior in : | vitality and stamina to the early settlers of' I Amcricfl and tu the deep chested and sinewy ; 1 English stock, from which we sprang. We j cannot help thinking that this is, in some measure, the fault of the ladies, whose ti>in | shoes anil in-door life, sap the foundations of health and strength, and thus enervate' j and enfeeble their offspring. The physical ' education of girls is almost as important as ; their intellectual culture, and might be adI vantageously substituted for much that goes ! | under the name of female education. In England it is customary for women of the highest rank to be great pedestrians, and take rugular out-door exercise. Ttie subject is one of great practical importance, and the example of their fair English cousins is not beneath the attention of the ladies of America.? Chronicle & Sentinel. Support Youii l'ai'Eit.?
