THE NEWS.
I In.- Hoitec (if Representatives alone did
not transact any legislative business during
j the week ending Wednesday of last week.
In the Court of Impeachment, the trial was
\ resumed on Wednesday, at which time our
previous report closed. Mr. Sumner then
j submitted an order setting forth that though
| the • requires a two-thirds vote
j for conviction, that a majority vote only is
; needed to determine the judgment of the
j Court. Mr. Butler obtaiued leave to make
| a statement in reference to his connection
with the Alta Vela case, lie stated that
j the opinion he had given in regard to that
I was written in February last, before
j the commencement of the impeachment pro
• veeilings, and this draft of his opinion had
j then no date. It had since been published
by the President, bearing a date after the
I commencement of the trial. Mr. Butler al
! so stated that neither himself nor any other
on of the Managers had any connection
>vitli or int rest in the Alta Vela claim. Mr.
Nelson replied in a vulgar and excited man
tier, censuring his colleagues of the Presi
-1 ii lit - counsel for not having more warmly
| defended him, and was going on to indulge
in personalities toward Mr. Butler, when
: he was railed to order, and apologized for
his behavior. After this episode, Mr. Evnrts
j commenced his argument.
The Washington correspondent of the
Springfield RrpuhUm* says: "Mr. Chase
-a;. - he never has had an idea of'charging
site Senate ujion the law on iuqicachiucut
before tliey retire for consultation. The
precedents ate all the other way: but he
! adds if this were the first impeachment trial.
I he should consider it an open question
j whether he had the right to instruct as to
| the law."
Immediately after the organization of the
Court on Wednesday, Senator Sumner in
j trodueed a preamble and resolution quoting
a portim of the language used by Mr. Nel
son. of the President's counsel, iu reply to
Mi . Butler oti Tuesday, in which the lan
| gunge in question, was pronounced as disor
derly and discreditable, calculated to bring
|on a duel, and justly deserving of'the disap
probation of the Senate. Mr. Butler said
; he hoped that, so far as he was concerned,
there would IHJ no further action taken in
the matter by the Senate. Mr. Nelson sta
ted that he had intended no offence by what
he had said, and asked permission to ex
plain. After considerable discussion. .Mr.
Nelson began reading certain letters con
cerning the Alta Vela guano island, but ols
jection was made by several Senators, and
lie was not allowed to proceed. The con
sideration of Mr. Sumner's resolution was
p -tponcd. Senerator Cameron offered a
• resolution proposing that night sessions of
| the S i late be "held until after all the argu
! tm-iits have been concluded, but Senator
John.-on objected thereto, it.- coii.-ideruttmi
ua postponed until to-day. Mr. Hearts ro
-ntucd hi- argmuent for the defence, occu
pyinu tire entire day in its delivery.
It i- reported from Washington that the

His speech or argument appeals to take in

NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S HANGING
GARDEN.
* Mr. Jacob Abbot contributes an interest
ing Memoir of Babylon to the last number
of Hurpn 's Nebuchadnezzar, the ruler of
that famous city, had a wife who came from
a mountainous district, and who was dirsat.
i.-fiod with the level prospect everywhere
about her, as she looked forth from the pal
acc of her husband, In order to gratify
her, ho reared the garden that is described
below:
The vast structure built by Nebuchadnez
zar, which has been celebrated in all ages
as one of the wonders of the world, under
the name of the Hanging (raidens of Baby
lon, was really an artificial mountain—or
meant to be such. It was built to gratify
the de.-irc of a wife of Nebuehadnazzar,
naiusd Amytis, who having been a native
of a mountainous country North, soon grew
tired when she came to Babylon, of the lev
el monotony of the country there, and, as
young brides on the Western prunes of
America often do at the present day, when
they remember the green declivities and
.summits, and the secluded and romantic
dells of their native New Kngland, she
said to her husband that she longed for the
sight of a hill. Her hm-band therefore un
dm took to build her one.
The structure consisted of a series of plat
form- or teiraces, supported on arches of
masonry, placed one above the other, and
raised so high that the upper one was above
the walls ot the city, so that the spectator,
standing u pen if; -could not only look down
upon a.l the streets and squares of the town,
but could also extend his view beyond the
walls, anil surrey the whole surrounding
eouiitiy. The several terraces were sup
ported on immense arches of masonry. The
laterual thrust of tin sc arches was resisted
by a solid wall twenty two feet thick, which
bounded and enclosed the structure on every
side. The platforms covering the arches
and forming the terraces, were constructed
ol immense flat blocks of stone, cemented at
the joints with bitumen. Above this pave
ment was a layer of reeds, and then another
of bitumen, upon which, at the top of all,
was a flooring of brick, which formed the
upper surface of the platform. On this
Inundation was laid a thick stratum of gar
den mold, deep enough to afford support
and nourishment fur the largest ttees. The
gardens made upon these terraces were laid
out in the most costly and elegant
manner, and were provided with stat
ues and fountains, and with the ehoi
cist fruits, and the rarest and most
beautiful shrubs and trees, and parterres of
brilliant flowers, and -cats, and bowers, and
ornamental arbors—with every thing, iu
short, which the horticulturist of the day
could d vise In complete the attractiveness
of the scene. The .. cent from each of these
terraces to the one above it was by a broad
and b autiful flight 1 f -tops, and visitors
who ascended from one to the other on each
successive platform new and ever changing
beauties, in the varied arrangement of walks
and trees and beds of flowers, and in the new
views of the surrounding country which be
came of course, wider and more commanding
the liiulii r they ascended.
There were spacious and airy apartments
built among the arches below, which opened
<mt noon the successive terraces. These
apart incuts commanded very lxrantiful views,
1,-orh of the gardens before them and of the
country U-youd. The interior of them was
splendidly decorated, an I they were fitted
with all lieivy coiivioiiiaiices for serving
rcfrcshim nts to guests, and for furnishing
them with Bimismuents and entertainments
of every kind, (hi the npjier platform was
a reservoir of water, supplied by vast en
gines concealed within the structure. Pipes
and oilier hydraulic machinery conducted
this water to all the lower terraces, in order
to sii| pb the various fountains, and to irri
gate. the ground. In fact, so vast was the
extent, and >o magnificent the decorations
of thi artificial hill, that as long as it en
dured. it was considered, by common con
sent, as oiio of the wonders of the world.
IVOIIUS TO WOMEN.
Gail Hamilton gives-the following moth
crly advice: Be content to strive for noth
ing le-s (loin all a woman uiay beconip.
Cease to think that pettiness, and frivolity,
and in-ipidity are feminine accompli-h
--mcot-; cc.isc to think it. a beautiful, a grace
ful, a womanly thing tube a fool. Strength
en the mind by study, and the body by ex
erci-e. Store your memory with facta, and
cultivate your judgment by reasoning. Fit
yourself for the place which you select or
arc i't. Be wife, mother, teacher, nurse,
what you will, but be your best; and be al
ways a woman first; be always higher than
your work. Remember always that you
must IH- before yi u can do Snorn to contract
your powers to the narrow circle of your per
sonal contact,, but comprehend with your in
terest, all that touches welfare. Consider
nothing human as foreign to you. Make
home, so far as you have or can have
power, a centre of com hilt indeed, hut of
light, of intelligence, of humanity as well,
and count the whole country your home
and the whole world your country. Dis
dain to affect or to cherish an ignorant in
nocence, but wear an aggressive and all
conquering purity. Remember that the
perfect is nobly planned; not only to warm
and comfort, but to command. Learn to
think nobly, to love nobly, to five nobly,
and demand and en fore- by your own no
bilitv, linon oil who sect roar friendship
or companionship, the same outstretch for
ftoble I bought, and love and life.

BEDFORD, fAm Fftl DAY. MAY 8, I NGN.
IIOU TO BECOME A YOUNG'OLD
MAN.
This is certainly a question of interest to
all of'us, and especially to thv uiinistry.
Iu regard to it the Pittsburg (iiristwn A<b
vocolc says:
If one would become a young old man,
he must ever be a growing man. The great
law of God in the natural intellectual and
moral world is, grow or die. The intellect
tial powers must ever grow or die. This
fact unlocks the secret of the success of the
noble old men we have mentioned. They
were growing men to the last. Their intel
| lect was kept under a constant stimulus.
They were constantly seeking knowledge.
Hven after the almond tree was in its fullest
; bloom, they were as hard students and as
close thinkers as ever before, and it was
this constant close thinking that preserved
them to the !a>t their vigorous intellect.
And in this we have the explanation of the
intellectual differanco between the ministry
and these othuc professions.
The sermon we prepare at one time may 1
be of that general character as to have an
adaption to all congregations. Thus the
: sermon well prepared this year may answer
for every year of our m.iiistry. Its prepa
ration may have eo-t ss much reading, HO I
uiueh close thinking, an' thereby secured
us an intellectual growth, but its subsequent
use though perhaps equally valuable to all
the congregations to whom we preach it,
will be of little intellectual profit to the
: preacher, and in the ministry there is great
i liability in after years to fall hack on the
preparation of previous years; thus the in
tellect, for want of the stimulus of hard
study and new thought, becomes enfeebled.
Failing to grow it dies. Not so with the
lawyer or statesman. Almost every case
the lawyer pleads or argues is in many of its
features a new one. Thus with him the
well prepared speech for to day's suit can
not ati-wer for to-morrow, nor for coming
; years, because each additional ease has new
testimony to weigh, and new principles of
. law to apply, so that every speech the law
yer makes must he greatly a new one.
Thus, too, of the statesman. Every year
brings out new phases of politics. N'rw
questions are constantly arising, and old
speeches, however perfect at the time of
their preparation, would be sadly deficient
in their adaption to the altered condition
of things. Therefore the statesman, as
well as the lawyer, must be constantly pre
'! paiing new speeches. Another circum
stance which greatly tends to stimulate
them to mental activity is tlie fact that their
speeches are to fie replied to, and they have
an ambition not to be beaten. These tilings
quite force upon them activity of intellect,
thus securing to them the conditions of
| mental growth. The minister on the con
i trary lacking this measurable compulsory
stimulus, allows himself to fall into mental
inaction, and thus for the want of growth
die-.
There are two things which, carried out.
can scarcely tail to make one a young oid
man. The first is the subsoiling or plowing
deep the mental field. The thoughts of a
superficial thinker, when the sun is risen,
soon wither away, "because they have not
much earth." We may read much with
intellectual profit. It is not enough to
pluck the flowers of others and transfer
them to our minds as to a vase, but we need
to take them up and transplant them, and
this requires eluse thinking.
WHO OWN THE BONOS.
< >f the five richest men of the metropolis,
only two hold, individually, any I'nited
States stocks, at all and those to a very in
con-idcrable amount.
These bonds besides the three or four
hundred millions held abroad by ottr friends:
principally in Germany, constitute the in
vestm ints of savings banks, marine lire
and life insurance companies, and the tru-t
e-Uttes. In this State the savings batik
aloue hold nole.-s than forty-nine millions
of dollars; in Massachusetts, twenty-five
million.-; iu Rhode Island, thirteen millions,
and so ou of many of the otber States. In
thi- city the surplus funds of the life in.-ui
ance companies, to the amount of twenty
millions are invested iu the same way. The
marine and fire insurance companies hold
no le-s, or in the aggregate, about forty six
millions of dollars. In other words, again,
the saving- batiks and the insurance compa
nies doing business in the State alone hold
one hundred miiiiuns of tbe United States
stock. In this, ttust estates, which we
have no means of getting at, are not inelu
del.
In the State of New Y'.rk alone the de
positors in the savings banks who own this
£411,000,000 of United States stock arc no
tes-than 4-5,.">0l in number. In the State
of Massachusetts they are no less than 410,-
000 in number making in ail, iu two States
alone, nearly a milliouof persons who arc
vitally concerned in the permanence and
appreciation of our national securities.
Now, let us n-k. arc these all capital
ists, are they all aristocratic bondhold
ers, are they even of the easy classes?
Let us take a li.-t of one of the batiks now
before us, and trati.-cribe some of'tbe princi
pal occupations to which the depositors be
long: Artists, bankers, butchers, bar-tend
ers, blacksmiths, boarding-bouse keepers,
boatmen, boiler makers, book-binders,
cartmeii, coaehtnen, carpenters, clerks, do
ine.-tics, engineers, farmers, fishermen,
gardeners, hatters, hucksters, junk dealers,
laborers, masons, milkuitn, milliners, nur
.-us, osilors peddlers, porters, plumbers,
soaiustressers, shoemakers, soldiers, tailors,
tanners, washers, waiters, weavers. Ot
these several classes the largest in its num
bers arc, Ist, domestics; dd,' laborers; 3d.
seamstresses; 4th, clerks; sth. tailors; tith,
waiters, and 7th, cartmen. These are the
"aristocratic," who the politicians, in un
ignorant and vulgar notion of playing upon
a supposed feeling of jealousy against
wealth, would drag to the ground. Rich
men who hold bonds have other means, al
so, but these have nothing t.i trust to but
their little economies invested ii} the faith
of the nation.
They are the poorer classes, then, who
avail themselves of the benefits of these
institutions, and whose little means accu
mulated make up their capitals. The
savings hanks alone in this State have a
constituency of no less than fouV hundred
thousand persons, poor men, widow.-, or
phans. sailors, sewing girls, teachers, and
others who art thrifty enough to put by all
they have earned against the day of ill-luck,
or disease, or old age. These are the "aris
tocratie bondholders" we repent, whose
property the political).- arc aiming at, whose
-ceurities they would render worthless,
whose very means of subsistence in their
darker hours they would turn into worthless
rags. —A'. J*. Ucoumj Poof.
Is there any gentleman who has been in

The last time the writer saw th • "Beau''
lie remarked that he was "now taking o.V

limped a little, and that a hole had been cut
in his shoe. We asked the cause, and hoped
it was not gout.
"Ah. no. said Beau; "it's not that. If

AMERICAN BOYS.
Frotably in every age, since the time of '
poor Adam ami Hvo's trouble with their
will til sou, the world has been supposed to
be near its end, on account of the naughti- !
rie.— of boys. We have sometimes been !
tempted to that supposition, and certainly
we c >uld not much wonder if Young Amer
ican furni-hed more food for the Prophet's i
avenging bears than Young Israel supplied.
Yet the world lias continued to be, and gen- 1
erati in after generation has risen from pet- ■
licoats to jackets and trousers, ami from
! icki ts and trou.-ers to coats and pauta
lootip, without anv extinction of the line of
masculine succession. That succession will I
probably be kept up in this hemisphere, aud
here, ns of old, tlie folly of youth will, in
dm- time, be übdued by th- wisdom of age. •
r)ur daughters are constitutionally more
mil- ke-i by sensibility, and our sons are more !
uifiked by wilfulness. The consequence is,
thnt wc are more anxious what will happen
to our daughters, and what will happen
from our sous.—the daughter's sensitive
lies- exposing her to receive harm, and the
-oil s wilfulness exposing him to do harm.
We are not wi.-e to quarrel wirli nature,
and we must expect that boy- will be more
noisy and mi.-cheviou- than girls; nay, we
uiay count it u good sign of a lad's force of
afc-wfiaa in omu-o sad (ban force
or^wiiT perverted to base uses, and the
sti iigth of manhood sunk into the service
of hi.-e lu-t or fiendish pn-sions? What is
ti.oii -ad than the sight presented everv
(lav in our streets—the scores of precocious
tiianik n-, with the wor.-t vices of nun writ
t ti over features almost infantile in their;
mould.—boys who are hardly oid enough to
be lieyond their mother'.- .watch, now swag
gcring with all the airs of experienced
bloods, and polluting (he air of God's heav
en with the vocabulary of bell? How
many a -triplii g among us seems to think it
the very iii.t proof of manly spirit to break
the Divine law which gives the home its

A GOOD tAIt.X.
In the village of W., lived a man who had
once been a .fudge of the coußty and well
kn nvn all over it by the name of Judge L.
He kept a -tore and saw milland was always
sure to have tlie best of a bargain on bisside.
by lvfi:-!i mean-he had gained an ample
f irtatm: and some did not hesitate to call
him the higgest rascal in the world, lie
was very conceited, withal, and used to brag
of his business capacity, when any one was
near to listen. One rainy day as quite a
number were seated around the store, he ;
began as usual, to tell of his great bargains,
and at Ju.-t wound up with t-he expression :
'Nobody has ever cheated me, nor they
can't neither.'
'.Judge,' said anold man of tbe company.
I've cheated you more than you ever did
nir.
Tlow so,' said the Judge.
"if you will promise you won t go to law
bnnt it. nor do anything. I'll tell you; or
else I won't, you're 'to much ofa laweliarac
tor for me.' 'Let'- hear!' cried half adozen
voices at once.
I il promise,' said the Judge, 'and treat
in the bargain if you have.'
'Well do yon remember that wagon you
lobbed me 6f?
'I never robbed you of any wagon I only
got the best of the bargain.' said the Judge.
'Well, 1 made up my mind, to have it
back, and —
'You never did' interrupted the cute
Judge. _
'Yes I did. and interest too.
■How so? thundered the now enraged
Ju-icc.
'Weil, you see, Judge. 1 sold you oneday
a wry nice pine log. and bargained withvou
tor a "lot mure. Well, that log f stole off
your pile down by the mill the night before,
and the next day I sold it to you. The next
night 1 drew it. back home, and sold it to j
you the next day, and so 1 kept on until
you innl bought your own log of me twenty
-even times!'
Thai t a lie!' ox claimed the infuriated
Judge. running to his book and examining
his log accounts; 'you never sold me twenty
seven logs of the same measurement."
i know it,' said the vender in logs, 'by
drawing it back and forth, the end wore off, :
and a-it wore, I kept cutting the end off,
until it was only ten feet long —.just fourteen
feet shot tor than it was the first tunc I ,
brought it. and when it got so short, I drew
it home again and worked it up intoshingles, ;
and the next week you bought the shingles,
and I concluded 1 had got the worth of uiy i
wagon back —and -towed away in mv pocket- j
book."
The exclamation of the Judge was drowned
in the shouts of the bystanders, and the log
drawer found tho door without the promised
■ treat.

TIIII EFFECTS OF TOBACCO.
Dr. Dixon had very decided opinions with
reference to tobacco, and indeed all stimu
lant*.
"A\ hat., then. he ask*, "is tobacco ?
, Why, simply a narcotic—that is (see the
dictionary,] "a stupefier—h demeanor of ner
vous an muscular energy!' If any uiau dis- i
putes this, and asserts that he finds himself j
; more capable of intellectual or muscular ef- ;
' foil when he has a quid in his inouth, we
congratulate him on his improved astute-;
ness. We may betray our own want of the
precious intellectual quickener, but we will '
venture the question: How much did it
sharpen your logic-chopper when you took
the first quid? And how majestically did '
j you stand on your legs when yoit first felt
its effects?
"Our remarks apply in a much more for
: cible manner to smoking than to chewing,
j Some people are so silly as to suppose. Is:- |
, cause they do not spit while smoking, that
no harm can ensue; but they should remem
ber that the oil of tobacco, which contains
the deadily NICOTINE 'equally deadly and
almost as ropid in its action as strychnine,)
is volatilized, and with the smoke
through the delicate lining membrane of the
! mouth at each whiff of the cigar, and is afs
sorbet! by the extensive continuation of this
j membrane that lino the nostrils, and acts
u|>on the whole body. The smoke of to
. banco is indeed much more rapid in its stu- j
| jiefying effect, as every professed smoker,
| knows. It is usually called 'soothing' by ;
its votaries; but this is. of course, only the
| first stage of stupefaction; it acts precisely I
| as opium or other narcotics do.
"If we have used a moderate share of in- :
j teUect and very extensive observation
aright, we can find no cause of sufficient
! power except tobacco capable of producing i
j the wrecks of manhood that often comes un- :
der our professional notice. The dull lead- j
en eye. the trembling hand, and insecure i
and unmanly step, the vacillating purpose ;
and incapacity to reason correctly on the j
| most simple subjects, are too often seen con- ;
netted with the aroma of the deadly weed, ;
; as the victim unfold* in trembling accents
] his tale of blighted prosjx-ets and chilled j
affections.
So far are we from doubting its power ;
over the moral and physical welfare of the
race, that we have not a doubt that it has
infinitely more to do with the physical im- j
I perfection and early death of the children
|of its votaries, than its great associate,
drunkenness itself. Hie deficiency of virile
; power in many instances of long-continued j
smokers is very marked. Every surgeon of j
experience must have observed it. The lo
cal surgical and medical treatment most ef
fective in these cases, proves conclusively j
that it is to the debilitating and exhausting j
j influence of tobacco that these sad conse
! quences arc due.
"One would think that a man's —more j
esjK'cially a young man's—natural instincts :
would awaken hint to the discovery that
I some horrid vaiupire was fanning him from j
| mental sleep to physical death; ne has be-j
fore him every lay the bright eye. the elas- ;
! tie step, and the lithe limbs of his compan
ions; he sees, but seems not to understand,
| the quickly averted eye, the expressive and
scornful face of iusulted woman, as she re
fuses to take his offered but defiled seat in
the omnibus or railway ear; he permits her
' to open the window and expose her health
to the chill air. to get a little air untainted
: with the loathsome aroma of his foul breath, i
" A person who is saturated with tobacco, i
or tobacco poisoned, acquires a sodden or !
dirty yellow hue; two whiffs of his breath i
will -cent a large room; you may nose him i
la-fore he takes his seat. Of this he is en- i
t i rely unconscious; liu will give you the full
force of hi* lungs, and for the most part
such people have a great desire to approach
and annoy yon. AVe have la-en followed
round a large office-table by them, hacking '
1 continually to escape the nuisance, till we
had made a revolution or two Itefbre our
motive was perceived.
"If there be a vice more prostrating to
the body and mind, and more crucifying to
all the sympathies of man's spiritual nature,
we have yet to be convinced of it."
TIME.
The following eloquent paper on Time, is,
we believe, from the pen of Paulding :
I saw a temple reaxed by the hand of
tnan, standing with its pinnacle in the dis
tant plain. The streams beat about it, the
Hod of nature hurled his thunderbolt
against it, yet it stood firm as adamant.
Revelry was in the halls ; the gay, the hap
py, the young, the beautiful were there. 1
returned—ana lo ! the temple was no more.
Its high walls lay in scattered ruin; moss
1 and grass grew rankly there; and at the I
midnight hour the owl's long cry added to j
the deep solitude. The young and gay
who bad revelled there had passed away.
I saw a child rejoicing in his youth, the
idol of his mother and the pride of his
father, f returned—and that child had
become old. Trembling with the weight
; of years, he stood the last of his generation,
a stranger amid the desolation around him.
I saw an old oak standing in all its pride
upon the mountain; the birds were carol
ing in its boughs. I returned —and the
oak was leafless and sapless; the winds
were playing at their pastimes through its ;
branches.
"Who is this destroyer?" said I to my j
guardian angel.
"It is Time," said he. "AA'hen the morn
ing stars sung together for joy over the new
made world, he commenced his course;
and when lie had destroyed all that is beau- j
tiful on the earth, plucked the sun from his ;
sphere, veiled the moon in blood, yea, j
when he shall have rolled the heavens and j
earth away as a scroll, then shall an angel
from the throne of God come forth, and
with one foot upon the sea and one upon
the land, lift up his hand toward heaven
and swear, by Heaven's Eternal, Tiuie js,
Time was, hut Time shall be no longer."
SEWARD AND STEVENS. —The Washing- 1
ton correspondent of the Cleveland Lender
writes: William H. Seward sat on the floor
of the Senate on Friday. His small figure,
and slim head, the latter covered with
-mooth gray and white hair, attracted all ;
attention. Simon Cameron graciously gave j
him a chair, and Mr. IliDgham addressed |
hiui with the words of welcome and assur- '
enee as to his health. Then Thaddeus St.e- |
vens engaged in conversation with Mr.
Seward. Two physiques ripe for death '
were they, but Seward looked the oiler, ,
having not the advantage of a dark wig, like j
Mr. Stevens. The latter is a grand looking
old man always, but on this occasion his
film month, strong brows, and habitual
firmness of cynicism, gave him great advan
tage over Seward's irregular and weak face, ;
which showed many facile lines, as of ready ,
wit, but not of deep principles. Seward
has always scented to me to be a literary :
man, intrusted with statesmanship. _ His ;
weaknesses are all those of a professional ;
writer. He is fond of talk, of sentimental!
zing, of good wine, and frequent rich food,
of riding, flattery and company, and he al
ways has his leading speeches and State pa
pers written out, manifolded, and forwarded
to the press in abundant time to print them ;
without error or abridgment. It was in this
way that he lost position in politics, loving
the dream of empire more than the abstract
truths of freedom, artd too indolent at his
age (nearly seventy) to join an aggressive j
party again.
A rich old lady, ninety years of age, has

Kxcni RAGE THE YOUNM.—.John Ruskin
lias said, il' a young man deserve praise, be
! sure you give it him, else you do riot only
run a chance of driving him from the right
road by want of encouragement, but you
deprive yourself of the happiest privilege
you will ever have of rewarding his labor.
; Fur it is only the young who can receive
much reward from men's praise; the old,
when they are great, get ton far !wvond and
above you to care what you think of them.
1 ou may urge them with sympathy, and
i surround them with acclamation, but they
will douht your pleasure and despise your
! prai-e. Vou might have cheered tliera in
their race through the asphodel meadows
of their youth; you might have brought the
proud, bright scarlet to their luces, if you
had hut cried once. "Well done " as they
! dashed np to the first goal of their early
ambition. Hut now their pleasure is in
memory, and their ambition is in heaven.
They can be kind to you; you can never
more be kind to them.
PROMPTNESS. —Promptness is a cardinal
, virtue. Nothing noble in life can be achic
; ved without it. With it all things ae pos
sible. Before it all difficulties vanish, all
i ob.sunolcs disappear. The prompt man i.
the successful man, He takes time by the
forelock The opportunity comes and be
seizes it. Luck is on his side. The forces
, of nature take his part and act with him.
Promptness is not rashness. It never acts
i blind y. It does not waste its strength in
random blows. It strikes at the right mo
ment, and in the right place. It is a wiJe
| awake faculty. It sees clearly, and acts a
wise decision. It does not put off till to
: morrow what ought to be done to-day.
WANTING FRIENDS.—"I wish that 1 had
j soum good friends to help me on in life."
| "flood friends! Why you have ten," re
! pled his master.
I'm sure I haven't half so many, and
; those 1 have are too poor to help me.
"Count your fingers my boy."
Dennis looked at his large strong hand.
"Count thumbs and all."
"I have; there are ten," said the lad,
"Then never say you have not got ten
good friends to help you on in life. Try
what those true friends can do before you
begin grumbling and fretting because you
do not get any help from others."
RECIPE FOR HAPPINESS.
J u-t wealth enough to keep away
()f' want the direful scene;
Just health enough to gild the day,
And made life's course serene;
Virtue enough to act that part
Which is devoid of sin;
Courage enough to ask the heart,
"Art thou secure within?"
CHRISTIAN TRAINING FOR THE
CHILDREN.
\\ e take the following able article on the
: training of children from the Philadelphia
Lulger. In the remarkable paper on the
Unman Catholics in the May number of the
Atlantic , it is well said: "The best man is
| he who can rear the best child; the best wo
| man is she who can rear the best child.
| The whole virtue of the race, physical,
I moral, mental, comes into play in the most
sweet, most arduous, most pleasing, most
difficult of all the work done by mortals in
this world." But how is this work to be
accomplished? The formation of right
| principles, ofa truly Christian character in
! the rising generation, is not only the most
important work before aU, buf it is the work
: sooner or later each good parent mils "TO %•
I the highest work of his or her life. How to
j perform it most successfully is the great
problem. All our modern zeal for education
; common schools, high schools, colleges,
\ public institutions or denominational ones
is but the modern exhibition of this desire.
But in the very earliest portion of the Bible
the Pentateuch, the same desire is bieathed
j and plans are arranged for accomplishing
the work. There Jehovah says: "The
first-born of thy sons shalt thou give unto
me." And this consecration of the first
born, thougli extended by Christianity to
ail a man's children and circumstances, has
never been repealed, only enlarged. It lies
at the foundations of all the future hope.- of
this nation, and of all the nations of the
globe. The formation of a true and pro
gressive religious character is the hope of
the world. This grest movement, which
began before the slaying of the first-born in
Egypt, and before even the call of Abraham
has steadily advanced those families and na
tions which have most favored it, and will
continue to do so while time shall last. In
fact, the great object of the 'laws of grimo
geniture was to make the first born the
teacher, the guide, the inheritor of all the
wisdom and knowledge of the past, only that
they might be most securely banded down
to the future.
The laws of inheritance in regard to char
acter are far more vital to the welfare of any
community than the laws for the transition
or property, for character is more etheriai,
pervading and vital. The formation of a
good character, which is a propensity to act
rightly in the future from all the experien
ces of the past, is one of the most priceless
of inheritances which a good man bequea
thes his children. A good reputation is a
great treasure, but that is but the gilding,
while a good character is the solid gold. A
man of a benevolent character or nature is
one in whom the habit of considerate giving
has been so cherished that no matter how
much he may give, you always feel that
there is something more than the mere gift,
namely, a desire to do good with what lie
bestows. And so a man of pious character
is one in whom religious activity is always
an earnest tendency of the soul. 1> >es any
one a.-k how a truly religious character is
funned? How is all characters formed?
Emotions or desires ripen into choices.
Choices lie at the foundation of all our ac
tions, while actions repeated from habits,
and that tendency of all habits, to repeat
themselves in the individual, and reproduce
themselves by education, is character.
It is thus easy to perceive how much the
right training of the tirst-hom bears upon
the formation of the religious character of
the entire family, What a peculiar feeling
of mystery, wonder, awe, trust and love is
woke up in the heart of Conscientious,
thoughtful parents, by the cries of their
first-born. The novelty, the responsibility
of so new and strange a charge as a young
immortal life committed to their care, is a
divinely arranged and purposed feeling—one
that never can be iorgotten, and rarely, il
ever, can reeur again in its full force. The
Great Creator, who saith "all- souls are
mine," draws near to those parents, and
puts the nurtuie and destiny of a gem of
deathless character into the charge of those
young parents, and say, as Pharaoh's
daughter said to the mother of Moses,
"take this child and nourish it for mc, and I
will give thee wages."
The first-born educates the parents often
more than they educate it. The rest of the
family come, are treated and are educated
much after the pattern of the first, modified,
! perhaps, a little by experience. But what
watcliings, cares, fears and hopes cluster frP
stinctiveiy around the first-born. Many of
these anxieties are needless for the firstborn
alone, yet most needful for the family
I though vicarious as to the individual. They
■ all teach the parents how to educate the
rest. The first born is often spoiled. Anu
i vet that concentrated wealth of affection
foolishly lavished often gives x condenser
experience that moulds the wuv-c am
training of the rest cf the family, and edv
nates them valuably by au experience game
n a first failure. But where the parcsti
:flections are consecrated from the first
