Serenity.
"Friends," commonly known as Qua
kers, as a class live longer than any
other persons in the world. The very
name of Quaker brings `up before the
mind the personification of eqnanimity,
composure and quiet dignity. The se
'rene commands at once our confidence,
our respect and our love. The bravo
are serene, and so are the good. In
fact, serenity is our highest dignity; it
is godlike! And as we should aim to
be like Him in all qualities possible to
man, it is our duty to cultivate seren •
ity;not only because it promotes length
of days on the earth, and happiness,
but does much.toward preparation for
that after life, Whose duration is end—
less and whose quality is bliss I That
serenity of mind is a cultivatable char
acteristic, is demonstrated by the exis
tence of Friends' Society. Their fouls
. ders were,as other men in birth and
habits and propensities; but convic
tions of certain moral and practical
truths came upon them, and they
emerged into a new life; they "put off
the, old man with his deeds," and there
upon framed to themselves a new garb
a "moral dress," which made them
stand out in the world a distinct and
an admired people. Peace is a funda
mental faith of theirs, and peace is se
rene. Even handed justice toward all
of human kind is the polar star of
their practical faith, and justice is se ,
rene. By the practice of these sereni
ties themselves, and by their inculca
tion upon their children, they have, in
-a half dozen generations, made it an
almost inheritable virtue.
While we should cultivate serenity
of heart and mind, for the benign in•
themes which it cannot fail•to have on
ourselves and on those with whom we
associate, we should be deterred from
the neglect of cherishing a quality so
divine by keeping in mind the evils
which befall those who give a loose
rein to the natural man. The great
and good Washington is known to
have been an extremely irritable man
in early life, bat he schooled himself
'to become as calm as a summer's sea
in after years. Our children should
be taught to look calmly at all things,
to speak calmly of all things, and thus
avoid
_those habits of conversational
.exaggerations, affected ejaculations, of
hasty judgments and of ridiCulous prai
ses, and of demoniacal vituperations
which so commonly prevail, and which
are at once a disgrace to the head and
heart of the multitudes who are charge
able in this regard. The want of this
.self control, of this calm looking at a
trouble and a joy, lays us all liable to
death without a moment's notice I Mr.
1 1 -- died the other day in this city
From "some words with a gentleman
which excited him greatly. "He was
man of varied abilities, and held ma•
ny high and responsible positions," and
might have held them a long time had
lie possessed one other ability, that of
serenity. Mrs. "a lady of high
social distinction," on hearing that her
nephew had been elected to Farlia
ment, died under the excitement of the
gratifying intelligence. Let us then
practice' it ourselves, and teach it to
our children, to look at all things, to
think of all things, to speak of all
things serenely.—Journal of Healtk.

Deceiving Children.
I was spending a few days with an
intimate friend, and never did I see a
more systematic housewife, and what
then seemed to me, one who had so
quiet and complete control of her child.
But the secret of the latter I soon
learned. One evening she wished to
spend with me at a neighbor's—it was
a small gathering of friends, therefore
she was very desirous •of attending;
but her child demanded her presence
with him, and hearing him say his
prayers, she said :
"Willie, did you not . see the pretty.
kitten in the street to day ?"
"Yes, I did," he replied; "I wish I
had her; was'nt she pretty 7"
"Yes, very; now don't you want me
to buy the kitten for you. Perhaps
the man will sell her."
"0 yes, mother, do buy her."
"Well, then, be a good boy whilo I
am gone." Thus saying, she closed
the door, but he immediately called
her back.
"Don't go till morning, then I can
go with you,; won't yon stay ?"
"No, Willie; the man won't sell it
if I don't go to-night ; so be a good
boy."
He said no more, but quietly lay
down.
"Is this the way you govern your
child 7" said I after we had gained the
street; "if you knew the injury you
are doing, you would take a .different
course."
"Injury ?" she repeated, "what harm
have I done ? I did not tell him I
would see the man—l only asked him
if I should."
"But you gave him to understand
that you would. He is not old enough
to detect the difference now, but he
soon will be. Then I fear you will
perceive the error too late. You have
yourself grafted a thorn, so club the
point, to make it less piercing. On
your return he will not see the kitten,
therefore you will have to invent an-
Other falsehood to conceal the first."
We had now gained our friend's
door, which ended our conversation.
During the evening she seemed gayer
than usual; my words had little or no
effect upon her. She did not think her
little one was doing all he could to keep
awake to see the coveted kitten on her
return, wondering what made "mother
so long." It was late ere I reminded
her we ought to return. But little was
said during our homeward walk. She
went noiselessly into the room, suppo
sing her boy asleep; but he heard her
and said :
"Mother, is that you? Have you
brought the kitten; I kept awake to
see it and I was very sleepy 1"
"No, my dear; -the man would not
sell her."
"Why won't ho mother?" he asked
with quivering lips.
"I don't know; I suppose ho wants
her to catch rats and mice."
"Did he say so; mother ?"
"He did not say just that, but I
though he meant so."
"I did want it so bad, mother." The
little lips quivered, and the tears star
ted to his eyes. He rubbed them with
his little hands, winking very fast to
keep them back, but they would come;
at last he fell asleep with the pearly
drops glistening on his rosy cheeks.
The mother's glistened also. And as
she knelt to kiss them away, he mur
mured softly in his broken slumber, "I
did want it so had?' She .turned her
dewy eyes toward me, saying :
"You have led me to see my orror.
Never will I again, let what will be
the consequence, deceive my child too
please myself?'
Mother, you are practising the same
deception.? If you are, pause and
think of the consequences ere it is too
late. Does it not lessen your confi
dence in a person when you find out
they have been deceiving you.? Will
it not lessen that of your children in
you when they become old enough to
detect it. Besides it would be very
strange if they themselves did not im
itate you in things of more importance.
It is the pride and joy of a mother's
heart to gain and retain the entire con
fidence of her child, and it is in her
power to do so If she but exorcise that
power by precept and rule.

Saturday Night.
One by one the days go out. Sat•
urday night comes.
One by one the hopes go out. Eterni
ty comes. Like hailstones, the days
drop from the clouds of time, to fall
cold and dreary into the fathomless
past. Each day is a life—is a history.
The hopes of the morning are tears by
night—the air castles of. Monday are
the graves of Saturday night, alas, too
oft. God gives us sun, life, rain, health,
friends and that which is more blessed
than all, golden Hope. All the rest
desert us, but Hope, twin sister of fin.
mortality, is ours through the week=
into and beyond Saturday night—into
the grave to bear us dry and happy
through the Stygian flood and on to
God. Blessed be Hope, and blessed
be the nights which call us to kneel at
her altar.
Changes have come during the in
terim between this and last Saturday
night. Many a mound in the church
yard or cemetery marks God's bruises
on the desolate human heart. Many a
heart joy has boon dipped in sadness.
Many a dress which ono week since
was white is now the deepest mourn
ing. Some mourn. Some wear mourn
ing while the heart rejoices. Some
there are whose hearts are , darker than
the grave, for the lamp of love is bro
ken and the joy of years has gone
home. Scarlet buds and sombre blos
soms. Such is life.
Who of us all is nearerileaven than
one week since? Who of us have laid
up treasures above? Who of us have
mellowed the earth in which all must
rest? The account is for or against
us I Wo all thought and vowed one
week since to do right, but alas for
temptation I All of us have argued
with the subtle reasoner—few of us
have come off victorious. Prayers
have been uttered since last Saturday
night. Curses have been invoked.
The record has been perfectly kept,
and some day 'twill be opened to our
eyes. Let us rest from labor and re
new our vows. By the family fireside
—by the family altar—by the cot and
the couch . there is much to do this
night. Look back down the dark lane.
See what a wreck is there strewn.
HopeS which have died. Promises
badly broken. Good intentions and
noble resolutions lie bleeding and torn
as far back as the eye can reach. Hard
words lie where soft ones would have
been better. There are disappoint
ments and betrayals, bitter words and
wicked acts strewn thick over the
ground. • Ruins—ruins—ruins l Here
and there a fragrant flower lifts its si
lent voice and reats its pearly leaf to
gladden the debris around. Here and
there a blossom. Here and there, but
too far apart can be seen the beautiful
in strange contrast to the ruins and
wrecks. Life is a dark lane. Would
to God there were more flowers and
fewer ruins I Would there were more
loves and fewer hates. More white
and less red.
How the cbinges come over us!
What gave joy is now a pile of ashes !
The lips we lovedito kiss a week since,
now have no nectar! The hand which
once thrilled in rapture at tho slight
touch of love, now forgets to answer
back ! Tho eyo has grown cold or
worse than indifferent ! -Who is to
blame ? Some one. And why ? None
but God can tell truly ! As the sun
goes down and the- Sabbath rises, let
us strive again I Mother I clasp still
closer to your heart the pledge you
now caress, for God may want it back
before another Saturday night is yours.
The pet you kissed and caressed ono
week ago, has been taken away—who
will go nest? Deal gently with those
Who have erred. Heaven is forgiving.

If you have a friend draw him closer
to your heart. If you'have a life in

response; and the stock of colors was
shown to the customer, who fumbled
them over, and then, with a gesture of
contempt, turned away with the re
mark that they were not the kind ho
wanted. "What kind do you want ?"
queried tho shopkeeper. "We have
most every kind." "Well, it's secesh
collars; them's the style for me
"Walk right this way—we have that
style, too," was the response, as the
shopkeeper unrolled about eight feot of
hempen cord, and quickly twisting it
into a loop, held it up before the aston
ished gaze of the "socesher." He had
no more to say, but quietly took his
departure.

Waste and Want.
Mrs. Haskell, in her "Household
Encycloptedia," enumerates a long list
of small household leaks, which we
commend to the careful attention of
every housekeeper:
Much waste is experienced in the
boiling, etc., of meats. Unless watch
ed, the cook will throw out the water
without letting it cool to take of the
fat, or scrape the dripping-pan into the
twill-pail. The grease is useful in
many ways. It can bo burned in
lamps, mixed with laid ; or, when no
pork has been boiled with it, read° 'in
to candles. When pork has been boil
ed alone, it will do to fry cakes, if
cleansed. Again, bits of meat are
thrown out, which would make hash—
ed moat or hash. The flour is sifted
in a wasteful manner, or the bread-pan
loft with the dough sticking to it.
Pic crust is left, and laid by to sour,
instead of making a fow tarts for tea.
Cake batter is thrown out because but
little is kit.
Cold puddings aro considered good for
nothing, when oftentimes they can b 9
steamed for the nest day, or, as in the
case of rice, made over in otherforms.
Vegetables are thrown away that
would warm for breakfast nicely.-
Dish-cloths are thrown where mice
can destroy theM. Soap is left in wa
ter to dissolve, or more used than is
necessary. If Bath brick, whiting,
rotten-stone, &c., are used, much is
wasted uselessly. The - scrubbrush is
loft in water, pails scorched by the,
stove, tubs and barrels left in the sun
to drfand fall apart, chamber•pails
lowed to rust, tins not dried, andiron:
1 1 ware rusted; nice knives usedfor cook
. ing in the kitchen ; silver spoons. used
to scrape kettles, or forks to toast
bread. Rinsing of sweetmeats, and
skimmings of syrup, which make good
vinegar, are thrown out; cream is al
lowed to mould and spoil; mustard to
dry in the pot, and vinegar to corrode
the castor; ton, roasted *coffee, pepper,
and spices, to stand open and lose their
strength.
The molasses jug loses cork and the
flies take possession. Sweetmeats are
opened and forgotten. Vinegar is
drawn in a basin and allowed to stand
until both basin and vinegar are poll%
od. Sugar is spilled from the barrel,
coffee from the sack and tea from the
chest. Different sauces are .made too
sweet, and both sauce and sugar wast
ed. Dried fruits have not been taken
care of in season, and become wormy.
The vinegar on pickles loses its strength
or leaks out, and the pickles become
. soft. Potatoes in the cellar grow, and
the sprouts are not removed until they
become • worthless. Apples decay for
want of looking over. Pork spoils.for
want of salt, and the beef because the
brine wants scalding. Hams become
tainted or filled with vermin, for want
of the right protection. Dried beef
becomes so hard it 'cannot be cut;
cheese molds, and it is oaten by mice
or vermin: lard i• not well tried in the
fall, and becomes tainted; butter spoils
for want of being well made at first.
Bones aro burned that would make
soup; ashes are thrown out carelessly,
endangering the promises and being
wasted. Servants leave a light burn
ing in the kitchen when they are all
out of an evening, Clothes aro whip.
pod to pieces in the wind, fine cam—
brics rubbed on the board, and laces
torn in scratching. Brooms aro never
hung up, and good ones are spoiled.
Carpets are swept with stubs hardly
fit to scrub the kitchen, and good new
brooms used for scrubbing. Towels are
used in place of holdors,good shoots to
iron on, taking a fresh one every week,
thus scorching nearly all in the lions°.
Fluid if used, is left uncorked, endan
gering the house and wasting the
colic)]. Caps aro loft from lambs, ren.
Bering the fluid worthless by evapo
rating. Table-linen is thrown careless
ly down and oaten by mice, or put
away damp and is mildewed, or the
fruit stains aro forgottoe and the stains
washed in.
Table-cloths and napkins are used
as dish wipers; mats forgotten to be
put under hot dishes; teapots molted
by the stove ; water forgotten in pitch
ors and allowed to freeze in winter.;
slops for cow and pigs never saved;
china used to toed eats.and dogs on.;
and in many othorways a careless
and inexperienced housekeeper will
waste, without heeding, the hard.earn
ed wages of her husband; whenshe
reaJly thinks—because - she, buys no
fine clothes, makes the old'ones last,
and cooks plainly—she is a most su
perior housekeeper. Tho next time

STORING ROOTS TOR' WINTEIL—Mr.
.Editor:—l have been raising roots ; fora
number of years and hays tried various_
ways for keeping them in winter, and
have found that by burying them in the
field they will come out better in the
spring than any way I have ever-tried.
If there is no danger of water getting in
the heap, I make a long one in the mid-
dle of my patch of roots; after pulling
a few rows I take the horses and plow,
and make trench by throwing a furrow
each way. The roots can be wheeled
in from' each way or hauled with a
cart.—After topping the hoap to the
requisite height, I put a little straw
on, and then about six inches of earth—
this is spanked down ; about every,
eight foot I stand a wisp of straw up.
right for chimneys to let the dampness
escapo,as they will sweat. Before freez
ing weather, I haul some long manure
and put it on the heap.
A long hoap has this advantage
you can work at each end and cover
the middle; and when you take them
out, open one end only, and after fak
ing out what you want, throw some
of the manure on to prevent them
freezing. Should there be danger of
water, put the. heap on top of the
grounil ; this takes a little more time
to Cover them. I have bad as much
as five hundred bushels of turnips in a
heap of this kind. Carrots and rata
bagas I bury in the same way.—

WHEN TO BELECT SEED POTATOEB.-^
The beat time to select seed potatoe.s
is; when they are - dug. As soon
they are brought to the surface and .
lie spread on tbo ground, the best can
be selected with less difficulty than at
any other time. Those that are per
fectly matured and of good shape, have'
the marked characteristics of the va
riety, and good average size, should be
selected for seed, in preference to those
of any other qualities. They should
then be placed in boxes or barrels, and
kept where they will not, be injured
by freezing or by warmth. If seed
potatoes are saved in this mannerfor
a few years in succession, we have no
doubt a decided improvement. Will be
observed in the yield per acre, as well
as in the quality of the erope:. And we
think this , practice will also be• found
an effectual security against - small ones
and a good defence against rot. When
potatoes first como from the ground
the skins have a clearneSs which they
soon lose.
OamrAuns.—A Connecticut corres
pondent of the Rural - New:Yorker rec
ommends pasturing orchards with
sheep. lie says : "I consider the
best way to treat an orchard after it
has been seeded to grass is 'to pasture
it with sheep. They seem to be just
fitted for the purpose, as they remove
very little from the - soil that is not re
turned; they cat what apples drop
early because of: worms, togdther with
the pests themselves, and keep the
grass down short, making it good pick
ing up the fruit. I know by my own
experience and ttio testimony of ob.
serving, practical men, that trees will
thrive and bear larger crops of fruit,
almost free from knots "and worms,
when sheep are alloWed to run among
them until the fruit . begins to ripen,
while other orchards that have been
mowed will make only a small growth
and produce only second or third rate
fruit."
LICE ON STOCK.7-oalOb Canfield, of
Livingston county, : Michigan, writes
the Rural, that he has no such thing
about him as lice on cattle, horses,'
hogs, hens, geese, neither ticks on
sheep. His remedy is sulphur. To
an ox, or; cow, or hen, ho gives a ta-,
blespoonful in their feed ; to sheep less.
Ile puts it in the coops of the fowls in
small lumps. Feeds it once a month
in winter, but not in summer s except
to hogs. He gives his horned cattle,
and horses a spoonful of pulverized
saltpeter in the -month of March or
April, and again, without fail, when be
turns them out to grass. He also
feeds his cattle and horses about a pint
of flaxseed once a month in winter.
USE LIME.—We are surprised that
few farmers use lime as a means of pro
moting the health of their domestic ani
