Plough life's stern furrow, dig the weedy soil,
Tread with sad feet our rough and thorny way .

Sweet, starry twilight round our sleeping clay.
In the city of Hardford, Connecticut, lives
the hero of the true story I am about to re
late—but no longer "little," as the perilous
adventure which made him famous in his
native town
,happened several years ago.
Our hero was then a bright active boy of
fourteen—the son of a mechanic. In the
severe winter of 1835 the father worked in
a factory, about a mile from home, and eve
ry day he carried him his dinner across a
piece of meadow land.
One keen ; frosty day he found the 'snow
on this meadow nearly two feet deep, and no
traces of the little toot path' remaining.—
Yet he ran on as fast as possible, plunging
through drifts, keeping himself warm by
vigorous exerc is e' and brave, cheerful
thoughts.
When in the' midst of the meadow," fully
half a mile from the house, ho suddenly felt
himself going down, down ! He had fallen
into a well.
He sunk down into the dark, icy water,
but rose immediately to the surface, There
he grasped hold of a plank which had fallen
into the well as he went down. One end of
this rested on the bottom of the well, the
other rose about four feet above the surface
of the water.
The poor lad shouted for help until he
was hoarse and almost speechless, but all in
vain, as it was impossible to Make himself
heard from Buell a depth, and at such a dis
tance from any house. So at last he concln
ded that if he was saved at all he must save
save himself, and began at once, as be was
getting extremely cold in the water. So he
went to work.
First s he drew himself up the plank, and
braced himself against the top of it and the
wall-of-the-wall,—which—was—of—brick—and-1
quite smooth. Then he pulled off his coat,
and taking out his pocket knife he cut off
his boots. that he might go to work to a
greater advantage. Then with his • feet a ,
gains! one side of the wall, and his shoulders
'against the other, he worked his way' up by
the most fearful exertion about half the dis
tance to the top. - Hero he was obliged to
pause to take breath and gather up his en
ergies, for the work yet before him. Fat
harder was it than all he had gone through,
for the side being from this point covered
'with ice, he must cut with his knife, grasp
ing places With his fingers, slowly Ind care
fully all the - way,up.
It wan almost a hopeless attempt tut it,
was all that be could do. And here the lit ,

"AT TSB LAST.",

Ah! don't be sorrowful, darling,
And don't be 'sorrowful, pray ;
Taking the year together, my dear,
There isn't more night than day.
'Tis rainy. weather, my darling,
Time's waves they heavily run;
But taking the year together, my dear,
There's not a cloud more than sun.
We are folks now, my darling,
Our heads are growing gray;
And t•king the year all round, my dear,
You will always find a May !
We have had our May, my darling,
And our roses, long ago;
And the time of the year is coming, my dear
For the silent night of snow.
And God is God, my darling,
Of night as well as day,
And we fail and know that we can go
Wherever He leads the'vvay.
A God of the night, my darling,.
Of the night of death so grim;
The gate that leads to life, good wife,
Is the gate that liads to Him.

ed . fervently for help; fearing that he coulti
never get out alone.
Doubtless the Lord heard his voice, e:
ing from the deep, and pitied him. He
wrought no miracle to save bun, but breath
ed into his heart a yet larger measure of caltn
ness and courage strengthening him to work
out his own deliverance. It is in this way
that God often• answers our prayers whetave
Call on him in the time of trouble.
After this the little hero out - his - way - up: -
ward inch by inch.. His wet stockings froze
to di doe_anilkept-his_feet-from-slippingi
but-his shirt was quite worn from his shoul
ders, ere he reached the top.
He did reach it at last—erawle3 out into
the snow, and laid 110WII for a moment to
rest--:panting out his breath in little white
clouds on the clear frosty air.
He had been two hours and a half in the
well! ~
His clothes soon froze to his body, but he
no long er suffered with cold, as full of joy
and thankfulness he ran to thefaetory, where
nis father was waiting and wondering.
The poor than was obliged to go without,
dinner that day, but you may, be sure he
oared little about that, while 'listening with
tears in his eyes to the thrilling story his
son had to relate to him.
He must have been proud of the boy that
day, as he wrapped him in his own warm 0. ,
vercoat, and took him home to "mother "
And how that mother must have wept
and, smiled over the lad, and kissed him and ,
thanked God for him!
I have not beard of the "little berg" for
two or three years, but I trust lie is growing
up into a brave, heroic man, and I hope he•
will never forget the heavenly friend who
did not forget him in'the hour of his great
need.
There is an old saying that truth lies at
the bottom of a well.
I trust that this. brave boy found and
brought up limn there this truth:—God helps
those who help themselves.
Dow Discovering a Thief
After Lorenzo Dow had retired to bed af
ter a hard days travel, in the western part
of Virginia, a number of persons collected
in the bar room to enjoy their usual revel
ries,-as was custom in that part of the
country. At a late hour in the night the
alarm was given that one of the company
had)ost his pocket book, and a search was
proposed, whereupon the landlord remarked
that Lorenzo Dow was in the house, and if
the money was there, lie knew that Lorenzo
could find it. The suggestion was at once
reiceved with approbation and accordingly
aroused from hi a slumber, and brought
forth to find the money. As he entered the
room, his eyes 'ran through the company
with searching inquiry, but nothing appear.
,ed that could fix guilt upon any one. The
loser appeared with a countenance expres
sive of great concero,'and besought Mr. Dow
for Heaven's sake to find the money.
'Have any' left the company since you,
lost the money?' said Mr. Dow.
'None,' said the loser, none,'
- 'Then,' said Lorenzo turning to the land
lord, 'go bring me a large dinner pot.'
This created no little surprise. But as
supernatural powers were universally con
ceded hi s directions were unhesitatingly
obeyed. Accordingly the pot was brought
forward and set •in the middle of the room.
'Now,' said .Lorenzo, 'go and bring the old
chicken cock from the roost.'
This was also done, and at Lorenzo's direc
tions, the cock was placed in the pot and
covered over with a board or lid.
' 'Let the doors now be fastened and the
lights extinguished,' said Mr. Dow, which
was also done.
'Now,' said he, 'every person in the room
must rub his hands hard,against the pot, and
when the guilty hand touches •it the cock
will crow.
Accordingly all came forward, and rubbed
or pretended to rub against the pot.
'But no cock crowed.
'Let the candles be lighted,' said Lorenzo,
there is no guilty person here. if the man
had any money ho must have lost it some
where else. But stop,' said Lorenzo, when
all things were prepared, 'let us examine the
banns.'
This was the important part of his arrange
ment. For on examination, it was found
that one man had not rubbed against the pot.
The other hands being black with soot from
the pot•was a proof of their innocence.
'There,' said Lorenzo, pointing to the man
with clean hands.-'there is the man who pick;
ed your pocket.'
The culprit, seeinglis detection, at once
acknowledged his guilt.
CURE FOR DYSENTERY.—Dr. Paige of
Washington, communicates to the RepuU i
can of thecity the following simple remedy,
long known in family practice, and which
was rntly tried in the camp of ths New-
York twenty second regiment, where there
were from eighty to one hundred cases dai
ly, and with rapid cures in every case:—ln
teacup half full of vinegar, dissolve as
much salt as it will take up, leaving a little
excess of salt at the bottom of the cup --,
•Pear - ' :. b - eiling water upon the -solution tit
the cup is two-thirds of three-quarters full.—
A scum will-arise to-the surface which ',must
be removed, and the.solation allowed to cool,
Dose, a teaspoonful• three times a day until
relieved. The rationale of the operation • of
this tdmple medicine will readily occur to the
pathologist., and in • many hundred trials I
Have never known it to fail and iu dysentery
or I retracted dierrhccal
Peaple talk of the jays of youth But
are they. not balanced by the miseries of
youth? Sorrow to the experienced is sor••
low; but sorrow to the inexperienced is des.,
pair. The man or woman who has seen
much.of life knows, that however bitter the
'grief ;t must pass, but youth knows nothing
of this.

It never tail§ to Wake an unfaterable inT=
:ion on our mind when we. hear, as` we
:them do, patents- ,complain of their
children, as rough, disorderly, ill-mannered
and - disobedient. -Becititse-in-the-first-place
if children are Stich, it Mast to a great ex
tent be the fault of the parents, who ought
'better to have trained them. And besides,
we think there_must_be_something 7 radically
wrong in a father or mother who willexpose
and gossip over the faults of their children.-
he sensiblitty — i - O as parental affec
tion will hide the faults' of a child, unless=
honor or rectitude require that they shall be
exposed. And then if they Must be confes
sed,,it will be with shame and a sincere sor
row, as for a misfortune in which the parent
is implicated. We cannot think well of any
person who.trill make corifidents of strangers,
for the purpose of revealing_to, and discuss
ing with them, the faults of their own fami
ilies and relatives. We receive their state- ,
wants with caution, and . qutrtion whether
they themselves are -not, in' part at least, the
cause of the faults which they 'condemn.
But as to disorderly children—and we
know there are many suck—we have obserV
ed this, that to' some extent at least they had
disorderly parents. 'We do not intend to
charge everything to parental neglect or mis
management - But w h en you see children
rude about the henge t noisy, with loud voices
and harsh words, do not the parents puisue
the same course ? Has not the father or
mother, or both, been accustomed to boister
ous:conversation, reproving and blaming in a
threatening manner; harsh and headlong in
their general deportment ? How can chil
dren be expected to be other than disorder
ly, if disorder and confusion prevails in the
family ? And the way to cure the evil in
the children, is not by blaming or threaten
ing, but by changing, the whole system' of
domestic management _to _one_oLself_con trol.
calmness, and orderly government. This
cannot be done at once nor easily; but it can
be done. Parents must themselves become
orderly and self-controlled. Children will
soon follow. Disorderly children cannot be
corrected in any other way.—[Mother's
Journal.
Good Advice.
Dow, Jr., in his sermon of last week, gives
the following very excellent advice to the
young ladies of his flock:
The buxom, bright-eyed, rosy cheeked•
lass—who can darn a stocking, mend trou
sers, make her own frocks, command a regi
ment of pots and kettles, feed the pigs, milk
cows, wrestle with the, boys, and be a lady
withal in "company," is jest the sort of a girl
,for me, and for any worthy man to marry—
but you, ye pining, moping, lolling screwed
up, wasp waisted, putty tared, consumption
mortgaged, music murdering, novel devour
ing daughters of Fashion and idleness—you
are bo more fit for, matrimony than a pullet
is to look after la, family of fourteen chick
ens. - •
The truth is, my dear girls, you want, gen
erally speaking, more liberty.aud less fash
ionable restraintsmore kitchen and less
parlor—more exercise and less sofa—more
pudding and less piano—more frankness and
less mock modesty—more breakfast and less
bustle. Loosen yourselves a li.ttle; enjoy
more liberty and less restraints- bs, fashion—
breathe the pure atmosphere of freedom, and
become as lovely and beautiful es the God
of nature designesd.

wespeak the truth when we affirm that tire
principle of life-in one, 'is the principle of
life in the other... Yon towering and. stately
oak that has successfully, withstood the storms
of a hundred winters, was once contained sin
the narrow cell of the acorn. Gindually and
successively were the different parts of its
organization unfolded and• developed , by. the
kind law of nature until it stands Perth, now
in its full strength and glory,--the monarch
of the forest. That - mighty 'intellect that
has moved the world:by its . philbsophy and
science ) was once the undeveloped mind of
the infant child. Gradually. and by the same,
law, were its powers expanded and strength
ened until it occupies the first' rank in the
world of thought. ,
The 'arborator may make the shrub he is
cultivating an upright and beautifully form
ed tree, or he may make it a deformed and
unsightly thing. So the teacher, following
the law of intellectual and. physical develop
ment in the child, may mould and fashion
its intellectual and morallintfire,and strength
en its physical organization- -until it comes
forth in manhood the presonification of intel
lectual and physical beauty and loveliness..
Much has been done in the last few years
toward effecting a reform in the education
of the young.
_Maxi's nature is complex, and
- in - order that - his education may be complete
it is important that all the parts of his or
ganization be properly educated. The fact
is being recognized—hy --- el true educators,
and accordingly we find io our best colleges
and academies means for the educating of the
body as well as of the mind. This fact will
also have to be recognized sooner orlater by
all controllers of • public schools. Houses
better adapted to the comfort and health of
children will take the place of those pens of
disease and torture that all over the land dis
grace the name or school-houses. Play
grounds supplied with gymnasiums and means
of education for the physical organization of
children should be attached to every house.
But by far the most important consideration
is the Teacher. In order that the'child may
be educated in all the parte of his 'complex
being, the teachermiust know how to educate
him. If I were building a barn or a house,
and having gathered the material together I
would not give the work into the hands - of
one who I thought did not posses the knowl
edge of putting the parts of the' edifice to
gether, leaving it to blind chance whether
it arose a beautiful and well formed Struc
ture, or an ill shaped and unstable thing that
would be overturned by the-first storm that
roared against it. And yet how many will
entrust the dearest interests of their children
into the hands of one who does not possess
any more knowledge of his business than does
our supposed mechanic.
"The first years of man must make provi
sion for the last," and the first years of the
child's education must be the basis of his
whole education; and would you, parents,
who love your children, and-hold dear 'their
best interests entrust, perhaps, their useful•
ness and happiness in time and eternity into
the hands of those, who, us Wordsworth says,
with their
Misshape the beauteous form of things?" .
We believe that the majority of teachers
of the present day are far superior as teach
ers to their predecessors of•a quarter or half
a century ago; but yet they lad far short iu
some things of what the true educator aright
to be. The teacher should be a man of su
perior attainments and qualifications, and
possessing a wide range of general intprma
don. lie should be one who understands
thoroughly all he attempts to teach; one Who
understands the principle of the intellectual
and physical being of his pupils,•that he may
know how to adapt his instructions to the
various wants of their complex nature, that
he may strengthen where the plant is weak,
and prune where the vegetation is too ex
cessive, thus giving to each part that proper
care and training that it may grow up into
a properly developed and harmohious and
'healthy whole.
In order that this end may be accomplish
ed it is necessary that the , teacher have a
knowledge of Physiology and hygiene, and
of Mental Philosophy. A knowledge of
these subjects will give him new power and
new strength; they will be a lever in his
hands more powerful than that of Archime
des, for he will lift education from a dull
matter of fact, and place it on a true practi
cal, and natural basis; his pupils will be
taueht not; merely as children, but a
chil
dren that will ono day be men and women;
hey_will be taught how toilive and to act,

A rich old widower in Canada in said to
have practiced a very artfull scheme to pig
e hand of thij( belle of a village.'• He got
an old gipsy to.tell the young lady's fortune
in words which he dictated, is follows:-
6111 y dear young lady, your star will soon be
hid for a short time by a 'veiy dark cloud,
but when it re•appears it. will continue to
shine with uninterrupted splendor until the
end of your day's. Before one week a weal
thy old widower, wearing a suit of black and'
a fine castor hat, will pay you a visit and re
quest "bin hand in marriage. You will ex
cept his offer, become his wife; and be left
a widow in.the possession of all his property
before the close of this year. Your next
husband will be a young man of whom you
think most at present' Three days after
ward the old gentleman, dressed ia r the man
ner described by the gipsy, .presented him
self to the young lady, and the •marriage
followed.
OUR NEW PRESIDENT.—We have bad a
President' aylor, and now we have a tailor
President. Little •did the present incum
bent think, when following the peaceful pro
fession of his yOuth, that his goose would
one day hang so high, and that ho, wbo
once aided in dressing up his Southern pa
trons, would, one day, be called to assist in
dressing down, the same individuals, and in
giving particular fits to so many rebellious
customers. ~
The kingdoms of this world rise and fall
like the ever-ebbing and ever flowing tides
of the sea, but the testimony of God remains
as the rot:lc—unseen to-day amid the froth
and' foam of the.• waters, but visible to-mor
row, strong in its foundations, and unscath
ed and undiminished from the collision.—
In the presence of . all created things, God
rises above them in majesty and glory, - and
in their decay lie . remains.—Orionntings.
God knows what key in the human soul
to touch, in order to draw out its sweetest
and most perfect harmonies. They may be
the minor strains of 'sadness and sorrow;
they may be the loftier notes of joy and
gladness; God knows where the melodies of
our natures are, and what discipline will cull
them forth. Some with plaintive• songs
must walk in the lowly vales all of life's
weary way; others in loftier hymns shall
sing of nothing but joy, as they thread the
mountain tops of life; but they all unite
without a discord or a jar, as the ascending
anthem of loving and believing hearts finds
its way into the chorus of the redeemed in
heaven.
He who -would become distinguished in '
manhood, and eminently ,useful to his corm- .
try and the' world, must be contented to
puss his boyhood and youth in obscurity'
learning that which lie is to practice when he
enters - upon the stage of action.
DOUBTLESS CORREOT.—Mrs. BQggins says
it is impossible for women to satisfy men in
their style of dressing. A while ago•the
pa
pers ( were abusing women beCause their
dresses were too large; now they, make fun
of their new style of sacki because 'they are'
so short. •She believes some'rtien 'would be
pleased to see the women wear nothing at
-all.
RELIABLE..—FqinaIo correspondents I n
Europe are thought more reliable, as they
never miss the Milli awl are never tight lit
cept when laced.
