in Vocal training, none.

WSUGAR, COFFEE AND TEA. —The present

' Ti-nltv the poorer class of people can indulge iu them, '
'fver necessary they may be to the convenience and
"afort of the household. Sugar, coffee and tea have ad

eded in our city or home markets, aud will have an

others to discontinue it altogether. Asa substitute

, , tMrcnt y seven cents per pound. While the j
!,,l! * ua ''y h'gh, the quality is inferior. Pre- j
" " a of the duty of five cents per lb , !
coffee could be purchased here (taking the difference of
grade into accouut) at fully ten cents per pound less than
the present rates. Now, while the great mass of people
would willingly pay the duty, for the sake of the Govern
ment, yet they refuse to submit to the additional tax of
five cents per poundlfor the benefit of speculators. Hence
the sales of coffee have fallen off immensely, aud'so long
as the present extortionate rates are demanded, the de
crease in sales will continue. The result will be a decline
in prices.
It may be proper here to rental k that our merchants
are not the parties who realize from speculations in cof
fee. The city dealers pocket the profits, and our grocers
realize less from this branch of their business than when
prices were low—the margin of profits being less, and
the sales being greatly diminished. It matters little to
the masses, however, who pockets the proceeds. They
are apt to blame the retailer, and investigate the matter
no further.
Although coffee has become a universal table beverage
and is used even to excess, a speculation in the article
has caused many to abandon its use altogether, while
thousands are using various substitutes and mixturers,
in order to lessen the cost. Corn, wheat, hurley, rye,
and other products are rested and substituted for coffee,
hut geuerallj with a mixture of the geuuinc article, to re
tain the llavor. Rye seems to he the favorite grain lor
this purpose. A lady states that the rye should be pie
pared in the following manner: "Scald it first, then
dry it, and afterwards brown it nicely, and to one third
coffee add one-third rye, and you will have as good a cap
of coffee as you ever drank."
Que would naturally suppose that the dccrase of con
sumption would be confined exclusively to the poorer
classes—those unable to pay the increased rates. Bnt
this Ls very far from the tact. Thousands of families in
moderate circumstances, including mechanics, farmers,
and others, are retrenching in ths way.
The sales of tea are also much diminished, inconse
quence ot the advance in prices. A chep and suitable
substitute for this article is perhaps m >re difficult to pro
cure, but at all events the sales will he materially dimin
ished.

Thus lovely was this infant's dawn,

He died before his infant soul
Had ever burnt with wrong desires
Had ever spurned at heaven's control,
Ur ever quenched its sacred fires.
He died to sin ; he died to care ;
But tor a moment felt the rod ;
Then rising on the viewless uir.
Spread his light wings and soared to God.
This blessed theme now cheers my voice ;

The " stone" that covered half my joys
