I can never toll why country clergy men do not shut up their. .ckurches in summer, and selecting some lovely grove, there talk, not "preach," to their people. Where could be the harm of letting "the Jews" and the "doctrines" alone till cold weather? and giving now and then a natural "burst" horn of the woods, and hills, and streams? Every summer how I long, as I travel about, and these lovely calm sweet Sabbaths dawn upon us, to have an out-of-door church. Nor would it distress my sanc tity to see the liTtle children rambling round us—now listening to catch a word, now straying off to pluck a flow er, now spell-bound by the sweet hymn, as the leaves whisper to each other, "Glory to God in the highest; peace on. earth and good will to men." No ad monishing hand should be laid by me on their little shoulders with the petri fying announcement, so impossible for young childhood to understand, "You must not run—it is Sunday." "You must not play—it is Sunday." "You must not laugh—it is Sunday?' flow can a little child, of four or five years, keep from "laughing" because it is Sunday ? how can he keep his little busy, restless hands folded, while birds are singing and leaves are dancing, and the brooks are sparkling in the sunlight, and earth is as fide as his own sweet happy face. Oh, don't make him hate Sunday by this mistaken method of teaching him to keep it holy. Don't begin so early to make him a little hypocrite. You will soon find in his pocket strings and balls, and pins, and dead bugs, and every other surreptitious contrivance to relieve the horrid tedium of such a "Sunday." Do you never, my good sir or madam, get up later and go to bed earlier on that day than any other? Do you never sleep away its noonday hours because your mind gets weary with prolonged reading? Do you nev er, under the disguise of a ride, or a beautiful Sunday, think it best to go to a more distant church than sour own chosen one to hear preaching? Do you, who exact of your restless child such motionless propriety in those hours, never stray off yourself to discuss warm political questions, or vexed business matters, with your next neighbor? Look closely into these points before settling your children's programme for the Sabbath hours. Should not the Sabbath bo "a de light?" and is this the way to make it so? Will there not wino to children so man aged a terrible rebound of license and lawlessness when they are out of lead ing strings? / think so; and it is be cause I think so, because I have so of ten seen it, that I beg these well-moan ing but mistaken parents to consider a little if what I say may not be true. Any thing seems to mo preferable to this compulsory Sabbatism of young childhood. Any thing better than hear ing a little child so brought up say sor rowfully, "oh, dear, it is Sunday again." Oh, putdown that Scott's Commentary you are already half asleep over, and take that disgusted, Weary little child by the hand, and walk out into the fields with it, and show it God's won derful workmanship in the varieties of trees, leaves and flowers. Do you call that "wicked ?" I tell you it is much more wicked to make a sanctimonious hypocrite of a little creature, whose heart is so bursting with love and glee that you might as well try to stop the birds from singing till Monday as to repress its utterance because "it is 'Sunday." Sunday? why, on Sunday throw open all the blinds instead of closing them, as if joy lay coffined and shroud ed within, as truly it often does with these mistaken people. Sunday? why, on every mantel and table lay bright odorous flowers. Sunday? always have something very nice for the little pal ate to mark the day; prepared on Sat urday it you choose, but have it. Sun day ? why, give your children twdnty kisses on that day over and above every other day in the week. Look more smilingon that day. Speak more cheer fully. Devote yourself to happifying your house and your children instead of groaning over"Doddridge's Rise and Progress," and calling yourself "a-mis erablo sinner," as indeed you are Try to mend matters, if you are sincere, by active "piety" such as this. Lot your children look back from a serene old age upon happy—happy Sundays; instead of feeling even at that late day, when its light dawns upon them, an impulse to escape its rigidity and tedium. It is because I love the day and its sweet calm' hours. that I ask this. It is because I want' those chil dren to havo this home anchor to keep them from straying into We paths of lawlessness and license in after years. it is because God is love that .1 dread ' your teaching your children 10 run away from him instead of into his open arms. FANNY FERN. A Laughing Deacon. Beecher, in his now novel, thus do , lineates the character of a laughing Deacon. Some genuine model doubt less sits for the portrait : "flow they over made a Deacon out of Jerry Marble I never could imagine! His was the kindest :heart that over bubbled and run, over. Ho was tough, elastic, incessantly. active,• and ,a pro digious worker,, He. seemed not to tire, but after. the longest day's toil he sprang up tho moment he had done with work, as if ho wore a fine steel spring. A few hours sleep sufficed him, and lie saw the morning stars the year round ? .11is weezeneeface was leath er color, ,but forever dimpling and changing to keep 'some sort of congru ity bet Ween itself and his eyes that winked and blinked and split all over with merry good nature. Ho always seemed afflicted when obliged to keep sober. He lied been known to laugh in meeting on several occasions, al though ho ran• his face between-his handkerchief and coughed, as if that was the matter, yet nobody believed it. Once, on a hot summer day, he saw Deacon Trowbridge—a sober and fat man of groat sobriety—gradually as cending from the bodily state into that spiritual condition entitled sleep. Ho was blameless of the act. lie had struggled against the temptation with the whole virtue of a deacon. Ho had stirred himself up and fixed his eyes on the minister with intense firmness, only to have them grow gradually nar rower and milder. If he held his head up firmly, it would, with a sudden lapse, lid( away over backward. If ho loaned it a little forward; it would drop suddenly on his bosom. At each nod, recovering himself, ho would,nod again with his eyes wide open to impress, upon the boys that he did it on pur pose at both times. In what other painful events of life has a good man so little sympathy as when overcome with sleep in meeting time? Against this insidious seduc tion ho arrays every conceivable resis tance. Ile stands up a while; hopinchos himself or pricks himself with pins. Ho looks up helplessly to the pulpit, as if succor :night possibly come from thence. He crosses his legs uncomfortably, and attempts to recite catechism or the multiplication table. He seizes a lan guid fan, which treacherously leaves him in a calm. He tries to reason, to notice the phenomena. Oh, that one could carry his pew to bed with him ! What tossing wakefulness ! what fiery chase efter.somnolcncy ! In his law ful bed a man cannot sleep, and in his pew he cannot keep awake ! Happy man who does not sleep in church ! Deacon Trowbridge was not that man. Deacon Marble was ! Deacon Marble witnessed the con flict we have sketched above, and when good Mr. Trowbridge gave his next j lurch, recovering himself with a snort, and then drew out a rod handkerchief and blew his nose .with a loud imita. tion, as if to let the boys know that ho had not been asleep, poor Deacon Mar ble was brought to a sore strait. But I have reason to think that he would have weathered the stress if it had not been for a sweet faced little boy in front of the gallery. The lad had boon innocently watch ing the same scone, and at its climax laughed out loud, with a frank and musical explosion, and then suddenly disappeared into his mother lap. That laugh was just too much, and Deacon Marble could no more help laughing than could Deacon Trowbridge help sleeping. Nor could he conceal it. Though he coughed, and put up his handkerchief and hemmed—it was a laugh, deacon !—and every boy in the house know it, and liked you better for it—so inexperienced were they! SLEEPING EQUALITY.-The Enter. prise . (Miss.) Star tolls a good story of Rev. Mr. Talley, of the Methodist Church, who recently began in his pul pit ministrations the doctrine of the perfect equality of the negro and the white man. As a result, ho was lion• ized by the "darkeys." An old gentle man of the white persuasion, rehiding in the neighborhood where this inis• sionary of equality was laboring, saw proper to doubt Mr. Talley's sincerity, and told a favorite boy—an old Limo house and body servant, who had im bibed great confidence in Mr. Talley as a sincere confidence man—that ho had as well keep his money, if lie in tended to give Mr. Talley any, until he could test his sincerity. A new idea struck Jack. Mr. Talley was to stay all night at Jack's master's. When he retired to bed, Jack accompanied• the reveremi gentleman to his room and held him in long conversation on the equality doctrine, until Mr. Talley was fully committed to it, and thoroughly sleepy, ho took off his coat ready for bed; so did Jack. Boots came nett; so did Jack's. Talley's pants off; Jack's ditto. In jumped Mr. Talley into bed, pulling the drollery of his couch Itround- "Look hero, Jack, what era you up to ?" quoth Mr. Talley. "Nuffin 'tall, sir. rso gain' to be 'dowu to' sorne4n, dot's all," replied Jack. "What's that you aro going to be 'down to' ?" saith his reverence. Well I'so going to bed wid you, dot's all dar is about it. I is jests gocd as you is acording to de Lord's gospel by you, and I is tired of sleeping wid myself in the shuck pen. So I is gwine to sleep wid you in toaster's bed," said Jack. Mr. Talley took a deliberate, indig nant survey of Jack from bead to foot, jumped out of bed, and irreverently Said what the soldier always says of mule, and skedaddled ! • CREDIT-A wise provision by which dheriN nod CODHLIbief3 got a living.

The Importance of Learning a Trade, We do not intend, under this bead ing, to speak of the iinportance. of be coming an apprentice to any mechan ical business, but of the importance of learning—acquiring—a trade, of be coming-a workman at the business chosen. It is not enough that a young man goes into a shop,and works for a longer or a shorter period as a neo phyte, but that he becomes master of the' rudiments: of his business. The country is filled with unfinished me chanics, every trade is overburdened with the miserable hange'rs on who, professing a knowledge of a business, bring it into disrepute by their incom petency., : There is.no bond in this country, by which a master can control the time cif an apprentice - for a period sufficient to remunerate the employer for tho losses sustained-in the early stages of the apprenticeship, or to give the apprentice a proper knowledge of his business. The apprentice is free to leave his master and employment, whenever, in his' opinton, he has col lected scraps enough of superficial knowledge to set up as an independ ent worker. He becomes dissratisfied with the character of his work or the amount of compensation, and finding other tPork and largo pay; he quits his master's employment just when his servicog have begun to be valuable, thus committing a fraud upon his em ployer and doing a great injury to him self'. In no case is the term required to learn a trade too long. According to the value and difficulties of the busi ness, it varies from three to seven years, and the most, faithful and obser vant apprentice, after having filled his full term of apprenticeship, finds he has much to learn before he can hon estly claim to be entirely and thorough ly competent. For at least a few months the apprentice is a constant source of anxiety and expense. From want ex perience, or from heedlessness, or dis like to the particular job given him, ho breaks tools and ruins work enough in a week to cover all the profits of 'his work for months. The employer bears with this, patiently or impatiently as the case may be, in the hope that dur ing the last part of the novitiate's ap prenticeship he may reap some return from the profits of his work. Under such circumstances it must be very vexatious to have an apprentice leave just when ho is becoming, in some measure, useful. Yet it is a common occurrence in this country. Apprenti-. ces seem too often-to be devoid of con science and wanting in the principles of common honesty. Nor is such conduct of any real, per manent advantage to the apprentice. Ho becomes the Bohemian of the workshop, a waif driven hither and thither, having a smattering of knowl edge and yet understanding no ono thing thoroughly. ILis services aro not sought ; ho is only a "Sack-at-a-pinch," to be used merely to fill a space other wise empty. Scores of such half-back ed mechanics'ean bo picked up any day ; they infest shops, torment em ployers, and disgrace the business they falsely profess to understand. They are industrial vagrants, if such a term is pormissable, to be shunned and des pised by every honorable workman. "Unstable as water, they cannot ex• eel." The ambition of the approntioo to bo ranked among journeymen is a lauda ble ono when properly directed, )ut it can only be realized by an honest and persistent sticking to his obvious and plain duties. If ho ever expects to teach ho must first be taught; if he desires to direct ho should submit to direction. What this country needs in the indus trial arts is finished workmen. They are scarce and always in demnd. A competent and intelligent workmen is seldom wanting a good job. When business is slack the incompetents are first discharged, while the valuable workman is kept often at a serious pe cuniary loss to his employer, simply because it is difficult to fill his place. These considerations have nothing new in them, but because they aro so triteand hackneyed they are not enough considered by apprentices. We Earn estly invite their attention to the sub ject, believing it will be to their pres ent and prospective advantage to deal honestly in this as well as other re spects.—Scientifie American. trk_Women are more like flowers than wo think. in their dress and ad ornment they express their natures, as the flowers do in their petals and colors.
