- Little Eddio will not answer,
lie hears not my anguished call, -v.-
A dread silence hath, come o'er him,
- A silence over all. -
I hear no more his young foot-steps
" Come lightly through the hall ;
J His hat and feather hang unworn,
Against the parlor wall.
- " His little brothers quiet are,
They miss him in their home ;
And I, oh, how shall I stay here,
I am so sad and lone . . .

Through all the long, lung day,
, And when I lay me down at night,
Ah, then too he's away.
Away? O, tell me where that I

But life and peace and joy.
There's another flashing crown put on

Another golden harp is struck
There s another angel now.

ple English words in speech and writing is an-
evil. Plain words are symbols of character,
They penetrate depths which artificial words
skim over. They are the natural vehicles of
trne wisdom. Whatever may choose to affect
to be such, will take a more pompous convey
ance.
Men do not ride on horseback as aforetime
" they take equestrian exercise ; women are
not married like their grandmothers they are
led to the hymenial altar. A bookseller, for
sooth, becomes a bibliopole ; and a servant is
converted into a niancipe ; barbers do not sell
tooth-powder and shaving-soap as their fathers
did, but odonto, and dentifrice, and rypopha-

If it has a signification at all, we will guaran
. tyto find half a dozen Saxon monosyllables
expressive of the same idea. Medical gentle

it has some connexion with blood-letting, and,
for our own part we always associate the term
with a night we once spent between sheets, all
alive O Jin an Irish hotel. Who would be
lievo that "cpistaxis," means simply bleeding
at the nose; or that "taxidermist" means a

his fist, and telling another to "look out for

Common Schools. An exchango gives the
following hints on the duties of pareuts to
schools which will be found worthy of atten
tion :
1. Parents should send their children to
school constantly and seasonably.
2. They should see that they are decently
clothed, and cleanly in their persons.
3. They should encourage them to respect
and obey the rules and requirements ot the
school.
4. And they should encourage them to be
orderly in their deportment and studiously to
regard right.
6. They should encourage them to be studi
ously manifesting an interest in their lessons.
6. They should' have regard for the charac
ter of tho Books their children read, and seo
that they read nnderstandingly.
7. They should cultivate in their children
habits of true politeness and courtesy.
8. Besides visiting the school, and co-operating
and sympathising with the teacher, they
can do much for its improvement and success,
by manifesting at all proper times and in all
proper places an interest in its welfare, and a
deep solicitude for its rsputation, by speaking
well of the teacher and of bis judicious plans ;
by palliating or excusing bis faults or tailings,
(of which every teacher must be expected to
have some,) and inducing bis neighbors to
visit the school and take an interest in its ex
ercises, thus showing to their children in the
most convincing manner, that their present
employment is an important one, and that the
duties of school are not to be regarded as of
little consequence.

Ilu Great Library Offer. Agents Getting Rich !
The union of EMERSON'S MAGAZINE and
PUTNAM'S MONTHLY has given to the consoli
dated work a circulation second to but one similar
publication in the country, and has sccurod for it
a combination of literary and artistic talent prob
ably unrivalled by any other magazine in tho
world. During the first month, the sale in the trade
and demand from subscribers exceeded 90,000 co
pies, and tbe numbers already issued of the con
solidated work are universally conceded to have
surpassed, in the richness of their literary contents,
and the beauty and profuscness of their pictorial
illustrations, any magazine ever before issued from
tbe American press. Encouraged by these eviden
ces of favor, the publishers have determined to
commence the new volume in January with still
additional attractions, and to offer such induce
ments to subscribers as cannot fail to place it. in
circulation, at the bead of American raagasines.
With this view they now announce the following
splendid programme. They have purchased that
superb and costly steel-plate engraving,
"THE LAST SUPPER,"
and will present a copy of it to every three-dollar
subscriber for tho year 1&03. It was engraved at
a cost of over 56,000, by the late celebrated A. L.
Dick, from the original of Raphael Morghen, after
Leonardo Da Vinci, and Is the largest stccl-platc
engraving ever executed in this country, being
three times the size of the ordinary 53 engravings.
The first impressions of this engraving are held
at 510, and it was tbe intention of the artist that
none of the engravings should ever be offered for
a less sum than $5, being richly worth that amount.
Thus every three-dollar subscriber will receive
the Magazine one year cheap at $3 and this
splendid engraving, richly worth 55 ; thus get
ting for S3 the value of Eight dollars.
We shall commence striking off tho engravings
immediately, yet it can hardly be expected that
impressions of so large a plate can be taken as fast
as they will bo called for by subscribers. We shall,
therefore, furnish them in tho order in which sub
scriptions are received Those who desire to ob
tain their engravings early, and from the first im
pressions, should send in their subscriptions with
out delay The engraving can be sent on rollers,
by mail, or in any other manner, as subscribers
shall order.
SS20,000 IN WORKS OF ART.
In addition to the superb engraving of "THE
LAST SUPPER," which will be presented eo eve
ry three-dollar subscriber for 1858, the publishers
have completed arrangemente for tho distribution,
on the 25th day of December. 1858, of a series of
splendid works of art. consisting of one hundred
rich and rare Old Paintings, valued at from 5100
to 51,000 each. Also, 2,00i magnificent Steel-plate
Engravings, worth from 53 to 55 each, and 1,000
choice Holiday Books, worth from 51 to 55 each,
making, in all, over THREE THOUSAND GIFTS,
w. rth TWENTY THOUSAND. DOLLARS.
Incloie $3 to the publishers and you will com
mence receiving the Magazine by return mail.
You will also receive with the first copy a num
bered subscription receipt entitling you to the En
graving of "THE LAST SUPPER,-' and a chance
to draw ono of these ''Three Thousand Prizes.''
reasoxs whv vow should srbscribe for
EMERSON'S MAGAZINE FOR 1858.
First: Because its literary contents will, during
the year, embrace contributions from over one
hunJlrnl different writers and thinkers, num
bering among them the most distinguished of A
merican authors.
Seeoiirt: Because its editorial departments. '-Our
Studio," ''OurWindow," and -Our Olio," will each
be conducted by an able edisor and it will sur
pass, in the variety and richness of its editorial
contents, any other magazine.
Third : Because it will contain, daring the year,
nearly six thousand original pictorial illustrations
from designs by tho first American artists.
Fourth : Because for the sum of 53 you will re
ceive this splendid monthly, more richly worth
that sum than any other magazine, and the superb
engraving of 'The Last Supper," worth 55.
Fifth: Because you will" very likely draw ono
of the three thousand prizes to be distributed on
the 25th day of December, 185i perhaps one
that is worth One Thousand Dollars.
Notwithstanding that these extraordinary in
ducements can hardly fail to accomplish the ob
jects of the publishers without further efforts, yet
they have determined to continue through the year

four subscribers, either at one or more post-offices,
we will present a splendid Library, consisting of
