Looking Up.
Mr. Astor, it is said, when once fordtg the
Susquehanna on horseback, found himself
becoming so dizzy, as to be about to lose his
scat. Suddenly he received a blow on his
chin from a trapper who was his companion,
with the words, "Look up.". Ho did look
up, and recovered his balance. It was look
ing on the turbulent waters that imperiled
his life; the blow he received and the look-
ing up saved it.
A parallel anecdote, in reference to a car
toon painter at St. Peter's, is familiar to many
of our young readdrs. He was working on
a temporary platform, so constructed as to
enable him to touch the lofty dome with his
pencil. In order to give the last touches to
a figure above him, he was gradually backing
until he reached the edge of the platform.—
In a moment he would have been precipita
ted on the marble floor that lay at art im
mense distance beneath. One of his associ
ates saw his peril, and with great presence of
mind threw a brush of paint upward against
the almost finished painting. The painter
sprang forward to arrest, if lie could, the in
jury. He was tao late; the picture was
ruined, but the painter's life was saved.
It is so often with ourselves under God's
discipline. A sudden shock comes to our
own persons, or death descends on one of our
friends. At the moment, with our eyes fixed
on. self, or on some object of earthly idolatry,
weinay be nigh ruin. Then God's-provi
dence comes and disfigures the idol, or forci
bly withdraws our eyes from the path in
which we were seeking destruction. In
earthly relations we would see in such inter
positions the presence not only of a wise but
a. loving friend. Shall we not, when we con
sider the relations of the soul, after the same
thing from God's chastening providences?
"I Dare Ref It o Fight."
After school at night; eorge joined some
boys who were amusing themselves by sliding
down hill on their sleds. George had drawn
his sled up to the top of the bill, and was
riding down again, when one of the boys, to
tease him, drew his sled directly in the path,
so that when George's sled came in contact
with it. he was thrown off into the snow.—
George was inclined to be angry at •first ; but
he soon recollected himself, and thought " if
/ do not get angry now, Otis will be a tri
umph, I am sure."
All the boys gathered around him and said,
" Give it to him, George ; give it to him. I
would pay him well for that."
"No," said George: "if be has done wrong
that is no reason why I should do wrong toe."
" It is because you dare not fight me, that
you have grown so wonderful good all at
once," said the boy who had thrown him from
his sled.
George felt his spirit begin to rise at this
taunt ; but he knew he was in the right of
it and he answered calmly; •
"I dare refitse to fight, notwithstanding
your sneers; and I leave you to judge which
requires the greatest courage."
All the boys knew that George was right,
and had displayed the best and most difficult
kind of courage, so they urged him no more
to fight, and even the boy who had thrown
him from the sled could not help feeling
ashamed of his conduct.
JUDGE BY THE COMPANY YOE' Kim'.—Young
persons cannot be too guarded in respect to
the company they keep, for, however errone
ous the conclusions may be in certain cases,
it is a fact not to be lightly considered, that
the character of a man is judged by the com
pany in which be is seen ; and this on the
known law, that like has an affinity with like.
Many a young man has lost a golden oppor
tunity because, in a single instance, perhaps,
he has been seen in company of those who
.are known to have bad. habits and corrupt prin
ciples, and been judged as like them. To all
young persons we would say, be exceeding
careful as to the individuals in whose compa
ny you are seen. Your experience is small,
your knowledge of character is limited, your
principles of life only in the foming state ;
and the inference of your case will be that
you incline to the known habits of your sup
posed associates.
WHAT AM I GOING TO Do?—One afternoon
a boy saw a person drop his purse. Ile pick
ed it up and put it in his pocket, and was
walking off with it. " What am I going to
do 2" came into his mind, and the answer fol
lowed :—" I am going away with a purse of
money that does not belong to me. This is
not honest ; I shall be a thief if Ido so. God
has said, " Thou shalt not steal." In anoth
er moment he ran after the person, and gave
up the purse.
" What am I going to do ?" asked a boy
who took his fishing tackle instead of his
books and was stealing out of the back door
of his father's house. "I am going to play
truant deceive my parents, neglect my school,
and go in the company of bad boys." The
case looked a bad one, he turned about, put
away his fishing-tackle, found his satchel and
ran off to school.
These boys were saved from much evil by
stopping to think. Solomon says, "Ponder
thy path of thy feet."
It L q-j- A little boy returning from the Sun
day School said to his mother,—"Ma, ain't
there a kittenchism for little boys? this cate
chism is so hard,"

2VC2V Styles—Prices from $5O to $125. Extra
Charge of $5 for Hemmers.
405 Brontlway,
730 Chestnut street,
These Machines sew from two spools, as purchased from
the store, requiring no re-winding of thread ; they Hem,
Fell, Gather, and Stitch in a superior style, finishing each
seam by their own operation, without recourse to the
hand-needle, as is required by other machines. They will
do better and cheaper sewing than a seamstress can, oven
if she works for one cent an hour, and are, unquestionably,
the beet Machines in the market for family sewing, on ac
count of their simplicity, durability, ease of management,
and adaptation to all varieties of family sewing—executing
either heavy or fine work with equal facility, and without
special adjustment.
As evidence cf the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the GROVER & BAXER SEWING MACHINE CompANy
beg leave to respectfully refer to the the following
TESTDIONIALS

which it is designed—Family Sowing."—llfrs. Joshua
Leavitt ; wife of Bev. Dr. Leavitt, Editor of Indepen

"I confess myself delighted with your Sewing Machine,
which has been in my family for many months. It has
always been ready for duty, requiring no adjustment, and
is easily adapted to every variety of family sewing, by
simply changing the spools of thread."—Mm Elizabeth
Strickland, wife of Rev. Dr. Striel.land, Editor of N. Y.
Christian Advocate.
"After trying several different good machines, I pre
ferred yours, on account of its simplicity, and the perfect
ease with which it is managed.'as well as the strength and
durability of the seam. After long experience, I feel com
petent to speak in this manner, and to confidently recom
mend it for every variety of family sewing'—Airs. E.
B. Spooner, wife of the Editor of Brooklyn Star.
"I have used a OnovEn & BANT:n_ Sewing Machine for

bined qualities of beauty, strength and simplicity, are in
valuable."—J. 1K Morris, daughter of Gen. Geo. Morris,
Editor of the Home Journal.

Wales, dated January 12, 185 S:
"I iad a tent made in Melbourne, in ISs3,in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewingdone with
One of Grover S. Baker's Machines, and a single seam of that
has outstood all the double seams sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine."
"If Homer could be called up from his murky hears, he
would sing the advent of Grover & Baker as a more be
nignant miracle of al t than was ever Vulcan's smithy.
He would denounce midnight shirt-making as 'the direful
spring of woes unnumbered.'"—/W/f. NOrth.
"I 'take pleasure in saying, that the Grover & Baker
Sewing Machines have more than sustained my expecta
tion. After trying and returning others, I have three of
them in operation in my different places, and, after four
year.' trial, have no fault to find."—.T. IL Hammond, Sen
ator of South Carolina.

"I use my Machine upon coats, dressmaking, and line
linen stitching. and the work is admirable—far better than
the best hand-sewing, or any other machine I have ever
seen:'—Lacy B. Thompson, Nashville, Tenn.

Grocer & Batter Machine as one of 'the greatest blessings to
