Children a trial to their Mothers.
Said a friend to me not long since, "the
children of Mrzi.—are a great trial to
he. ; she can do nothing with them; they
will not mind her, and they will soon be
beyond her control."
1:pon hearing this, I asked myself, why
is it that some parents have so much
trouble with their Children, while °them
in the same circumstances of life, F.-ern to
be almost exempt from these peculiar tri
als ? I cannot satisfy myself but that a'
great share of the blame comes upon the
parents.
God has not given children to parents
to be a mute tv them. Doves not his de
sign that they should be a curse, to them
through life. They were intended to be
a comfort, support and Messing, and such
they will be, if trained up in the way of
truth. They are hound together by ties,
which nothing but death is •to sever.
When we do not see such results, may we
out infer that the first wrong was on the
part of the parent ?
I happened to be present one day, when
I thought I bad ample proof that her
children were a trial to her. She at

One ?teemed to he beyond all control.: The
youngest seemed to yield for a time to her
method. When, in one of his frolics, and
at hiSt fits of passiOn and crying and noth
ing seemed to check him, she said, "come
here dear, :1114 see the trainers—come to
the window quick, and. see them before
they, are gone." The child was quiet in a
moment, and hurried to the window.
" Where, where are they ? I don't see
'ern." said the. child, looking in every di
rection. " Don't von. dear? nor do. I,"
said the mother at the same time. giving
the child a hearty kiss. Now, there Wall
nothing to be seen at the window the
mother - Inew it'; . and how long did it
take the child to hid it out ? How iong
before the child will know that there' was
downright deception? ~What more effec

to lie . ? In the nest fit of crying and
madness, " come here and see the train-.

perhaps more injurious. . What can a
mother expect but trials, by treating her
children in this way ? She may send

them - and for them. but her bad manage;
