SOMETHING WRONG., It was Saturday evening; and Mrs. Ainslie, flushed and tired, was work ing busily on a little white sacque, while a . similar' garment, evidently just finished, and two pretty hats newly trimmed with white rosettes and feathers, were on the table be side her, and two dainty dresses of light summer silk, ruffled up to the little; waists, hung over a ebair back. The wearers of these tasteful gar ments, aged respectfully eight and ten years, were sleeping • the deep, healthful slumber of childhood; while the w eary, mother sat toiling far into the night, and cheering her self-im posed task with the thought of the pretty picture that would greet her eyes on the morrow. "Come, come, Mary," said Frank Ainslie, as he threw down his book and approached his wife,. "do you know that, you are fairly encroaching on the Lord's Day? It , wants only a quarter to midnight." - "I can't help it, Frank 1" was the somewhat impatient reply. " This sacque must be finished, that the children may appear-in their Spring things to morrow. There is not mach to do it now. Look is it not pret ty!"

She began to suspect that there was something wrong in the existing state of things, and she set herself to thinking vigorously.

That day's 'ex- - experience had pained her ; the holy service had brought her no comfort, because she was " careful and trou bled about many things." "I do so like the way in which you dress your children," said a new ac quaintance to Mrs. Ainslie a few months afterward ; "they always look as fresh and sweet as pcissible— but there is not a ruffle; nor tuck, nor a ribbon too much. In these days of furbelowe and extravagance, it is really refreshing to see so much good sense." - - "It took me' some time to learn it,"- was the frank reply.

At a tune so near the close of the year it is profitable and plea& ant to'reflect en the seasons that are so soon almost to be forgotten. It is our purpose townite a feat =thoughts about 'them as they may occur to us, beginning with the Spring. With reference to this season I may safely say, that, the cornine of Spring is universally bailed with pleasure and delight by all. And this is because there is something about it that is -really refreshing to our senses. After the usual disa greeable, rainy %weather is over, the sun shines forth, imparting light and heat; and soon the tender blades of grass appear, to gladden our sight, as well as for other equally useful purpose& In a little time the first flowers enliven the earth with - their beauty, and the little birds sing for joy. When this season comes, the independent firmer is no longer lim ited in his farm inspections; and he ieels glad that the time for work has come; and he is indeed more truly " the lord' f all he surveys." - How enjoyable it is for any one to go on the hills and t..ke a view of Nature's wondrous works. The mountains. hills, valleys. fields, churches and houses are a fine sight to those who are admirers of Nature. This beau tiful season is often referred-to as type of that life after this, which the good are to realize when God - shall come' with judgment and say, " Well -done, thou good and faithful servant : enter thou into the joys of the Lord." Briefly and apprbpriately, we quote -from a gifted poet to close this ,part of the subject : "Forth in the Spring Thy beauty walks, Thy tenderness and lore." , All changes in nature are usually very gradual, and there is no special variation in this great law when we come to observe the seasons. The changes in the temperature of the air are not often marked in-any arbi tiary manner, to indicate the close, or approach, of any of the yearly so called divisions of the seasons. How One.season blends into the next in order, by a nice adaptation of the great Creator. When we speak of the Summer; we refer to that warm time of the year in which plants make the most of the genial powers of nature, by just growing as fast as possible. The leaves on the trees have attained their full size, and their fruit is hastened to .perfection. All things green, seem to be in a strife to see which can exemplify best the meaning of the word grow. The birds become more numerous, and they exert their powers in like man *tier; some of them swelling their lit tle throats in song as though they. were not afraid of bursting them. The face of nature is also more exu berant with flowers, and they by their fragrance and beauty seem to conspire in a silent but expressiv jubilee, to the Maker of all things. In Autumn, as it• is well known, the various productions of the earth come to maturity. The golden grain is gathered into barns. The fields have already been shorn of their crop of grass; and quite a contrast is seen, from the effects of the mower. .The stubble remains after the reaper, and a fresh crop of new clover comes on for pasturage to the cattle. In the orchards, the luscious yellow and red-cheeked apples are seen hending from the trees, " Gently oscillating in the Autumn breeze." Later, the leaves of the maple assume their gorgeous colors of yellow and red; and with the leaves of other trees, return to mother earth. The falling of the leaves teaches us how soon we, too, must pass away. Amid the desolation and cheerless ness ol,the fading th ings of‘earth, it is very cheering to look up at, the blue sky, which is remarkable at this time. Vie vegetation becoming dry and juiceless, is often - food for the destructive fire-fiend, of- . which we have heard so much during the Au tumn of this year. But enough, we will not contemplate the destruction which fire has made; but hasten to a few more thoughts on the closing days of the year. With what joy the boys view the snowflakes coming down, covering the earth with a white fleecy mantle.

But what shall we say of the poor and almost houseless persons in' our large cities. It cannot be a 'time of rejoicing to them, for they .know too well that. Winter is a stern and pitiless master. The people who have supplied them selves with the comforts and necessa ries of life, - ; sash as plenty of fad. woolen clothes, and- furs, can laugh at the tyrant with impunity.

To expose the Mistakes of content ed ignorance is hopeless. There is no cure for, these but a general in= provement in eduCation. There are, however,errors which well-instructed persons sometimes fall into, from mere thoughtlessness: Such errors, like the "Jeers of the brave and fol lies of the wise," have only to be brought home to the consiousness of those who commit them, to be- dis carded at once. A very common mistake. even for good writers and speakers, is the substitution of had for would, before the adverbs rallwr„. sooner; .biller, 'and some-others. "I had rather stay than go," instead of " I would' rath er." " I bad as lief takeone is the other," instead of "I would as lid" The origin of the error is .evident enough. The two . lords, had and would, have the same contracted form when Combined with pronoun. " I'd` rather" may be a contraction of ei ther "I would rather," or '1 bid rather." This contracted form is that which we almost alwayS use in com mon speech. Everi when we are in clined to lengthen it; we rarely give the full pFonunciation. We say. "I 'ad rather," leaving the verb doubt ful to the listener's ear, and perhaps to ourselves., When drivenio. write it; we feel naturally inclined to take the shortest word, without much re gard to the strict frammatical mean ing of the phrase. That the expres sions "I had rather," and "I had as lief," are incorrect, will be made evi dent by simply converting , rather into its more willingly, and /i(f into the corresponding gladly. - Yet it'must be admitted that these moor- . Beet forms are warranted by such high authorities, from Shakspeare to some of the test writers of our day,' that they are entitled to be regarded, if not as established idioms, at least as tolerated solecisms, The confusion of lay with lie, and of set with ' sit, is among the . most common errors of speech, though well-educated persons area usually able to avoid it in, writing. Every one who is familiar with the idioms of our language knosir% or ought to know, thatiay and set are what are called transitive verbs, and that lie and sit are intransitivg. In other words,' the two former can take, a noun after them in the objective case, and the two latter cannot. We Say "Ley 'the book down," " set the post up." To say "Lie .the book,' or 'lSit :the post," would be ridiculous. The error usually committed'iS in the op posite direction—the transitive verbs being used in an intransitive sense. luny persons, not deficient in edu cation, would say "Some of the dill dfen are laying on the grass, and the others are .setting in the .pa ; lor." That the error prevails in the 'very highest circles of society and of schol-. arship cannot be doubted; when we find it allowed to mar the effect of one of the' finest versos in Byron's well known apostrophe to the ocean:— "Aten'esteps are not upon thy radii; thy fleas Are not a spoil for him ; thou doat arise And shake him trom then ; vile strength he wields . . . . For Earth's destruction then Boat all despise, .pruning him frl•m thy bosom to the skies, And sen(rat him. shivering in thy playful spray, And howling to his gone, where haply lies IIi• petty ho. e 11:1 some near port or bay, And dash. d him again to earth ;—there let him lay." Next let us note the persistency with which many well-educated, as well as most uneducated persons use the objective pronouns' me, her,' him, them, after the various lenses of the substantive verb to be, in spite of the injunctions of - grammarians. The habit of saying "It is me," "It was him," - instead of "It is "It is he;" is so universal and so faed,that some modern writers on English philology have been disposed to regard it as al lowable. Possibly to the same cause we may, ascribe the general disuse, in ordina ry speech,of whom as in the' objective case of who. Instead of ilthe mail whom I taut," almost every nno would .say " the man that I met," 'oar, more briefly, " the man h Met." Both of these modes of expression are in_ ac cordance.' with grammatical rules. Not so is the equally common form of interrogation, " Who did , you meet ?" "Who are yon speaking to?" Here *horn would be correct, - and yet would seem so stitllhat many who knew the right would yet prime the wrong„ way deliberately. _A little al teration of the phrase, in such - a elute, will often make it more satisfactory in every way; as, for example . , "Who was the person yon were speaking tor A IfAstir houswite —All honor to the blay who cannot he laughed out of doing right.

It so happened that one of the rlayers was called out. "Come,"said the others to their companion, "it is too bad to have the game stop here in the middle: Come and take his place."

The following I find in my Scrap book, placed there five-and-tWenty years ago, and I regard the lesson contained as worthy of - being printed in letters of gold, and reflected upon the conscience orrery man. • The late celebrated John Trumbull, when 'a boy, resided with 'his father, Governor Trumbull, at his' iusidence in Lebanon, Cianiecticut, T in the neighborhood.of the Mohegans. The government of this - tribe was heredit ary in the- family'of the celebrated Micas. Among the heirs to the chief-' tanship was - an Indian name& Zach ary, who, though a brave man, and an excellent hunter, was as drunken and worthless an Indian as could well be found. By the death of in- 1 terviewing heirs, Zachary found him self entitled to the 'royal power. In this moment the better genius of Zachary assumed sway, and he re flected seriously. "Now can each a drunken wretch as I am aspire to b 6 chief of this noble tribe? what will my people say ? How shall the shades of my glorious ancestors look down upon' such 'a successor? Can I sac, teed to the great Uncti.s ?-1 Dana: so stoat!' And , he solemnly resolved that lieneforth he would drink nothing stronger than water; and be kept his resolution. Zachary succeeded - to the rule of his tribe. It was usual for - the Gov. einor toAttend at the annuaT election in Hartford, and it was customary for the Mobegan chief also to attend, and-on his way to lA%) and dine with the Governor. John, the Governor's I son, was but a boy, and on one of these occasions, at the festive board, occurred a scene which I will give in Trumbull's own words: "One day the mischievous thought struck me to try the sincerity of the Old man's temperance.
