O C J SJ, l1 "t RkaritT omer THK CHILDREN WE KhiEI. The children kept coming, one by one, Till the boys were five and the girU were three, And the big brown house was live with fun From the basement floor to the old roof-tree; Like garden flowers the little ones grew, Nurtured and trained with the tendered care Warmed by love's sunshine bathed in its dew They blossomed into beauty, like rates fair. 15ut one of the boys grew weary one day, And leaning his head on his mother's breast lie said, "I'm tired and cannot play ; Let me sit awhile on you knee and rest." She cradled him close to her fond embrace. She husheed him to sleep with her sweetest And rapturous love stiii lighted his face When his spirit had joined the heavenly throng. Then the eldest girl, with her thoughtful eyes, Who stood where "the brook and the river meet, Stole softly away into paradise Ere "the river" had reached her feet. While the father's eyes on the grave are bent The mother looked upward beyond the skies, Ourdarlings were angels in earth's disguise." The years Hew by and the children began With longings to think of the world outside. And as each, in his turn, became a man, The boys proudly went from the father's The girl's were women, so gentle and fair That lovers were speedy to woo and win ; And with orange blossoms in braided hair. The old home was left, new home to begin. So, one by one, the children have gone The boys were five and the girls were three ; And the big brown house is gloomy aud lone With but two old folks for its company. They talk to each other about the past, As they sit together in eventide. And say, 'AH the children we keep at last Are the boy and girl who in childhood died.' JOUS riUNGLE S AV1FE. Miss Maria Jane Brew9ter came into the sewing society with a set expression on her face, which plain ly told to those who observed it that something of more than usual weight was on her mind. A few, however. hail not observed it, in consequence of which the minute u. cripti-jn ci the trimm'ngs on Mrs. Squire Wright's ne v Boston made dress was rinished, when Miss Maria Jane availed herself of the first opening. 'I was in to John Pringle's as 1 came along.' 'Ah?' The pause had to be filled, as if every listener had not felt sure some choice bit ol criticism or gossip were to follow. One even went so far as to ak : 'Found them all well. I hope?' 'Oh, yes !' an upward of the yes. 'Found things about as usual. It is amazin', though, the peculiarities of. some folks. It beats me to see how John Pringle's a comin' out.' 'I5aby well? was ottered to till up the next pause, rather than witli an' solicitude for the health of that young person. Oh, yee, tound trie little nur?e gal a Cxin' things up to take it out doors, and she agoin', too, with that everlastin' porty folip of hers right after dinner, when most larmers wives have something else to do.' 'M, bi, m !' heads were shaken emphatically. And what do you suppose she did afore she went out?' hands hold ing needles were suspended in mid air. 'Well, M'lindy Jones is there; she's always there a sew-in' or a fuss- in over things that most farmers wives have to fuss over for them selves. Well, John Pringle's wife, she brought out a whole bundle of flannels, and nice flannels they be, too better'n John's mother had ev er laid out the money for reg'lar made, and solid, and all wool, though 1 think a little mixtur' of cotton stops 'em shrinkin'. Well, she just gives them to M'lindy to mend up and put away in tobaccer and camphir, her husband's flan nels!' The exclanaation which went around the circle was quite satisfac tory to Miss Maria Jane, so she re sumed: 'Soon they were ready to start, so we come out together, and I couldn't help a sayin' to her: 'Most of folks 1 know, 5liss Pringel, has to do that for themselves." 'What did she say to that?' 'Oh, she only laughed, and said she hadn't time for it, time, indeed ! and M'lindy seemed glad to do it. So she come along till she got to the grove, and then she turns in andsets herself down on a stool she took out of the baby's carriage, and begins to draw. I must say she looked as pretty as a picture, while the little gal went 'round with the baby and kep' a runnin' to her with bits of wild Mowers and such trash.' 'John Pringle's mother'd a' set down to her mendin after tbe ner dishes was washed, and din- took care of a baby, too.' 'Yes. I thought so myself, how she'd a felt to see the new fangled bay window goin' up outside her lest parlor, the kitchen was good enough for her to set in and have it used for every day, with a carpet looking like a posy bed, and an en try fire.' 'It seems to suit John well ! enough.' 0h, yes, she wind's him right 'round her finger, you see. He takas care of her just like a piece of Chiny.' 'I don't see that Mrs. Pringle's to blame for wanting to have things nice about her,' said one of the younger ladies, if her husband can afford' it' 'Thats just it, he can't. That farm of his aint going to stand many Brussels carpets, nor servants' wag es without end, to say nothin' of sewin' girls doin' the mendin.' 'It's a great help to Melindy, I though, I know, said the younger lady. 'Since she's lame, she told me Miss Pringle's kindness was a real Providence to her.' 'She must a been out in that grove afore this spring,' went on Miss Ma- j na Jane, tor, as I came lartner on, I found this ; see, this is the kind of work she does.' 'It's pretty, anvways,' 6aid the younger lady, as a scrap of paper on j which appeared a delicate tracery of j a sprig of maiden hair fern, with a : violet laid against it, was passed) around the circle. ' set ESTABLISHED, 1827. SOMERSET, PA., WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 14, IS83. 'Pretty way to spend one's time, I should say. But I'm going to car ry this back to her, and 1 think I shall just speak a little of my mind. I'm really kin to John Pringle, you know, second cousin to his father's first wife, so it's my place to speak to her.' 'Of course, it's your place.' 'And your duty.' Mrs. Pringle had committed griev ous 6ins in the eye9 of the farming community in which she had ap peared as a bride about three years before. In the first place she was in a measure held accountable for John Pringle's sin in turning his back on the country lasses who waited on the glance of his handsome eyes, to bow before a maiden in whose supe rior refinement he rejoiced with loy al md proud appreciation, she nev er for a moment considering that it placed her in any way above his sterling qualities of mind and heart. She had brought her own ways with her to the farm, and her ways were so different froin the ways which had been handed down from genera tion to generation of farmer's wives, as to keep up a constant small agita tion among them, of which she, be ing absorbed in her own pursuits, was provokingly unaware. She had brought a trusty servant to assist in the work of the house, which, the farm being a dairy farm, with a good deal of work for women, was acquiesced in by those who so kindly concerned themselves in her business, although it was soon whis pered that Mrs. Itingle left things too much to her, in order to pay at tention to drawing, which every body knows ought to be left alone as soon as a girl is done school. The disturbance which had been caused by unnecessary repairs and adorn ments of the old house, because what was good mough for John's mother ought to be good enough for John's wife, increased, as thesewina was turned over to hired hands, and arose to position of excitement when a little girl, was taken into the family to assist in the csre of the orby. 'Though I'm free to confess, as I don't want to do an injustice to a living soul,' said Maria Jane, 'that she hardly ever lets that baby out of her sight. But. I take it, a wo man as lias to be everlastingly fool ing over bits of paper and dauby paints, ain't no call to be a wife and mother.' 'I come to bring this to you, Mis' Pringle, s'posin' it to be your'n,' said the worthy spinster as she was shown into the room of the posy bed car pet, where she found its mistress seated at a desk, apparently absorb ed in a few flowers which stood in a glass of water. 'Oh, I thank you very much, Miss Brewster. It is one of a set of little) wild flower drawings, the wind blew it awav from me and Sarah couldn't find it? It was fully two hours after break fast, and the pretty room was still in all the disorder of the previous evening. Mrs. Pringle might have noticed the comprehensive glance with which Miss Brewster took in this fact, for she said with a little smile : 'You've caught me a little too ... T. . T 1 1 t . soon. .Miss isrewster. jonn orougui me those lovely little spring beau ties just after breakfast, and they fade so soon that I left things go while I sketched them.' In Mi?s Brewster's opinion this was treating the sacred obligations of thrifty housewifery entirely too lightly. "Most of folks I know, Mis' Prin gle,' she said stiffly, 'thinks duty ought to be attended to afore friv olities. Now, John Pringle's mother-' 'Yes, I know,' said John Pringle's mother's daughter in law. quite un abashed, 'only you see a room can be swept one time just as well as another, but these flowers would not wait' Miss Brewster was indignantly casting about for Fome expression which could delicately conAey her idea of the shittlessness of such a principle, when an interruption oc curred in the person of John Prin gle coming up the walk outside. 'Ha! ha! ha ! my lady,' said the visitor to herself.

'O, John, dear,' she said, 'I would not have left my room untidy, if I had known you were coming, but it has taken me ever since to draw these.' 'Good morning, Miss Brewster,' said John. 'Never mind the room, Janet, business lvefore pleasure, you know, eh, Miss Brewster? Look here, Janet, I came all the way back home to bring you these.' Business before pleasure, indeed. Miss Brewster was speechless as the two bent over a few anemones he held in his big hand. She had no intention of including John in the setting down she had come to give his wife, but she now felt nerved by the sight of such 'fool nonsense' to say her say to both. 'They're as natural as life, ain't they Miss BrewsteJ ?' he said show ing her the tiny drawing with great pride. 'I suppose so,' said the lady stiff ly, 'but seems to me, John Pringle, not to say its any concern of mine, I know, but most of ns neighbors has our opinion, I'm only meanin' it in all kindness, you know, that is, well,' Miss Maria Jane found her own and her neighbor's opinion more difficult of expression than she had anticipa ted, 'that it aint going.to pay in the long run to have everything going to sixes and sevens, I mean, that a farmer's wife can't afford to spend all her time over such light doings. Now your mother, John, I hope you know'l only mean to suggest to Mis, Piingle here, that your mother was the greatest hand in the ountry for bucklin' down to real solid work, no fine arts about her. I don't mean no inference, you know,' she hesita ted, seeing a" look in the faces of both her listeners which led her to imagine her suggestions might pos sibly be looked upon as an interfer ence. 1 only mean inai most w folks thinks that year lather would not a been as forehanded a man as he was if it hadn't a been for his wife's helpin' hand.' 'Miss Brewster," said John, grave ly, 'to my eyes there never was such a woman as my mother, and like wise there never was such a woman as my wife. If I had known the neighbors were so concerned over the rather unusual way in which her helping hand is as strong for me as my mother's was for my father,' he kissed the small, white hand which hid so excited Miss Maria Jane's contempt as being unfit for any use, 'I should have asked her to be more open about it simply because I don't want her misjudged among my old friends. Now, Janet, will you pleasti tell Miss Brewster how much you earn in a year by your drawings ?' 'Oh, nonsense, John. Go and at tend to your steam plow.' 'I don't want my wife to be a money maker, as she knows and you know, but if she is happy to turn her talent to account, and others are happy in doing the work she would do if she didn't make a thousand dollars a year more or less by her drawing ' 'What,' exclaimed Miss Brewster in such' astonishment that John laughed. 'Yes, ma'am. She furnishes illus trations for different publications and designs for China and Chintzes. Every improvement on the place hac been made by her; she earns more in a week than pays her servant hir for a month, and is piling up a little account which will make that little fellow out there ' he pointed to a baby in the carriage outside the window 'good for a better farm than his father's, long before he needs it' 'All by them little scrawls !' John was watching his wife as she laid among a few blades of grass one or two of th violet tinted anemones which shed through the room the daintiest, faintest odor of spring. Miss Brewster quietly took her leave with a very subdued feelingtli.it she had mud e a total failure in her ef fort at convincing these two that one of them was a 'a right up and down shiftless no account sort of a wo man.' But she was comforted by the re flection that the wonderful thing she had learned would create a pro found sensation when fully reported by her at the next meeting of the sewing society. Iict ihr Flirt beware. The following article has been sent us for publication by a victim of the indiscreet and character blight ing pastime of flirting : There are a large number of our young girls, I will not say ladies, in this and every other city who are never happy unless they are occu pied in carrying on a frolicsome street flirtation. They are not satis fied with the smiles and favors of young men whom they have met at their homes or in a proper way when out in society, but they persist in attempting to acquire acquaintances upon the streets by the most quest ionable methods. Street flirts are looked down on as bad characters whether male or female by all 'true ladies and gentlemen, but since a young girl has most to suffer and lose by such an indiscretion in hav ing her name brought into unenvia ble question, she ought to beware of the dangers of her folly in time and not incur the bad repute or suffer from the evil influences that always follow the street tlirt. Many a girl has been started on the downward road to a lifeof shame and misery by a street flirtation, innocent enough, perhaps, at first, but later on, surely criminal. When a girl consents to flirt with a strang er on the street, even)though she be long to a respectable family and may be pure in fact, she is on the high road to ruin. She may be proud and self reliant in character, but she occupies a position between respect ability and abandonment, with a strong but unseen tendency to in cline toward the latter. All girls who flirt are not abandoned wo men, but one thing is certain, all bad female characters are flirts of the most accomplished sort. Such be ing the case, as every intelligent girl ought to know, I cannot understand why respectable girls whose good name is more dear to fathers and mothers than priceless jewels, should be willing to bring suspicion upon themselves by amusing the male street masher. A girl who will be come a victim of such folly is both to be pitied and censured. Charity txorts to pity, but the facts impel one to condemnation. The unfort unate woman who has become an outcast from society is sometimes forced t her condition by necessity, and walks the streets to catch and fascinate sinfully disposed men to earn a miserable living. They fol low their degraded calling with many a heartburning and pang of regret, and in their misfortune can be pit ied ; but the majority of young girls who flirt on the streets degrade themselves from no ofher motive than to have a good time, as they call it, as if lowering their standard of womanhood was having a Rood time. Oh, girls, take warning before it is too late, for true modesty is one of the finest adornments that has been vouchsafed to women, and no one can resist admiring a girl thus arrayed ; but none respect those who put it away and take on brazonry as does the street flirt. Girls who en gage themselves in this simple but ugly habit should see themselves as others view them and they would never again be guilty of this unpard onable misconduct of street flirting, or if they could only see the sad, miserable future that lays before them and hear the sad tales of some abandoned woman, how she fell from her perch of respectability, and know the miserable, wretched lifeof the writer of this who is now beyond recall, they would certainly abandon the disgusting habit of becoming the toys of evil disposed men by street flirting.

In the month of July, 1S24, the body of Lord Byron was brought from Missolonghi to England, and on being landed from- the Florida was removed to the house of Sir Edward Knatchbull, who then resided in Great George street, Westminster. ' Were I to live a thousand years,' says a well known writer who went to see the deceased lying in his cof- hn, 1 should never forget my leel ings as I gazed upon the face of the illustrious dead. The body was at tired in that most awful of habili ments a shroud. It was wrapped in a blue cloth cloak, and the throat and head were uncovered. The for mer was beautifully moulded. The head of the poet was covered with short, crisp, curling locks, slightly streaked with gray hairs, especially over the temples, which were ample and free from hair, as we see in the portraits. The face had nothing of the appearance of death about it. It was neither sunken nor discolored in the least but of a dead, marble whUenesa the expresa'o l was that of stern quietude. How classically beautiful was the curved upper lip and the chin. I fancied the nose anneared as if it was not in harmony with the other features, but it might possibly hf ve been a little disfigured by the process of embalming. The forehead was high and broad in deed, the whole body was extremely large it must have been so to have contained a brain of such capacity. But what struck me most, was the exceeding beauty of the profile, as I observed it when the head was lifted for the purpose of adjusting the fur niture. It was perfect in its way, and seemed like a production of Phidias. Indeed' it far more resem bled an exquisite piece of sculpture than the face of the dead so still, so shapely defined and so marble like in its repose. I caught the view of it. hut for a moment, yet it was lone enough to have it stamped upon my " memorv as a thing of beauty, which noor Keats tells w is ajoy foreyer.' An l'li tor's I) roam.

' What do you wish ?' ' Let those persons again come forth,' replied the editor ; and Peter this time made their, all con;e through the gate and stand out side.

Here's the bill,' said the editor. 4 Why did you spell my name wrong in the programme?' groaned the local talent. 'Take a look at this manuscript for yourself,' said the editor with a grim smile. The rest of the company yelled their comnlaints in unison, and the editor calmly sorted out a series of bills for unpaid subscriptions, and presented each with one, and it was so that when they received them thev tore their hair and rushed vio lently down a steep place into the sea, and Peter, taking the editor calmly bv the hand, led him within the gate. X. Y. World. Save the Cokx FonDER.-.There will be as good a crop of cornfodder this year as in most years, hence it behooves every farmer to look to its careful preservation, which is not alwavs done as it should be. It is true the fodder is a heavy article to handle, UDles the husking is deferred to a period when the fodder becomes somewhat dry, sometimes a little mouldy, and then it is frequently left in the field until the latter part of November or beginning of Decem ber, greatly to its injury. The corn itself, when the hulking is deferred, frequently becomes mouldy, and its value deteriorated. It is better to husk it as soon aftr the stalks are cut, and the grains have become hardened, and crib at once. This allows the air to pass through the mass freely and dries it gradually and safely. All farmers, who have any expe rience in feeding good cornfodder, must admit that cattle prefer it to the best clover hay, and it is fully as milk producing, and more so when the stalks are slightly salted. They will then eat up all that is thus pre pared for them and thrive upon it We know this as well from our own experience as the experience of oth ers. Cornfodder is not, therefore, merely worth being cured in the best manner, but it should be an object of real concern with all who keep cattle, equally as much as with clover hay. It is not pleasant, then, to see so many fields of fodder every where over the country moulding and spoiling late in November, or even the fore part of December, merely for the sake of a little addi tional" labor to preserve it as it should be, by storing it away to helr out the wintt r stock of cattle food.

Two hundred and seventy years ago the good ship Tiger, command ed by Captain Adraien Black, was burned to the water's edge as she lay at anchor, just off the southern end of Manhattan Island. Her crew, thus forced into winter quar ters, were the first white men who built and occupied a house on the land where New Yerk now stands ; "then," to quote the graphic lan - guage ot mts .umo, m ner nistory of the city, "in primeval solitude, waiting till commerce should come and claim its own. Nature wore a hardy countenance, as wild and as untamed as the savage landholders. Monhattan's twenty-two thousands acres of rock, lake and rolling table land, rising at places to a height of one bund red and thirty-eight leet, were covered with somber ferests, and old, decayed and withered limbs contrasted with the younger growth of branches; and wild flowers wasted tneir sweetness among the dead leaves and uncut herbage at their roots. Tbe wanton grape-vine swung carelessly from the topmost boughs of the oak and the sycamore; and blackberry and raspberry bush es, like a picket-guard, presented a bold front in all possible avenues of approach. The entire surface of the isknd was bold aud granitic, and in profile resembled the cartilagious back of the sturgeon." This prime val scene was the product of natural forces working through uncounted periods of time, the continent slow ly rising and falling in the sea like the heaving breast of a world asleep; glaciers carving patiently through ages the deep estuaries, seasons in numeiable clothing the hills with alternate bloom and decay.

It is remarkable that among real ly educated people the art of reading aloud thoroughly well is so rare.

It is asserted that a celebra ted English judge once gave a lucra tive appointment to a gentleman who had been clerk in a metropoli tan police court. The appointment caused considerable surprise, and with some embarrassment the chief justice confessed that he had heard the nominee administer the oath to a witness in a way that brought tears to his eyes. 'I had never.' said he, 'heard the oath read as hf read it, although I hat! heard it read often enough." Everybody in court was impressed.

For two days and nights a party of three of ns from the North were quartered with a log cabin farmer while we explored the battle field of Shiloh.

J. (J'mtf. fit.riii(j Potatoes). There rrc three methods of stor- nig m gen-r.il use, each of which i"8" champions. Three general . Principles underlie these sevt-ral ! methods, viz: Protection against i ,rm, anu temperature, ireraom irom j isture ar' avoidance of beating ica,u'e(1 b? storing too deep. The ! advantages claimed for storing in I barrels are tiiat the roots are easily 1 bandied, do not SUffe from abrasio can be easily exani'ied, and if dis ease appears it can be readily e!:ecked and removed. The chief objection to this method is the time and expense involved when the crop is a large one. Bins are largely corning into use, especially in loca lities near large cities, for the pota toes can at any . time be readily reached and prepared for market. A cold, dry. well ventilated cellar, with the light excluded, is an admi- ' ra' place in which to store pota- i toes. j The argument in favor of storing j potatoes under ground is tht there l is little if anr loss by evaporation. Objections to the plan are the labor involved in opening the banks when the roots are required and the risk involved from the extremes of too close or insuffieent covering.
