As Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron is the only

cork of every bottle. The very fact that others
are attempting to imitate this valuable reme

its favor.

Beams the ether deep above, ,
Where all' day the floating eloudltits
Like frail , barges silent move ;
While afar where the horizon
Blendeth with the mountains bight,
Fleets of argosies seem atehored
In a sea of golden light. '
Like a dream o'er vale and •woodlald
Resteth low the silvery haze— ,
Hushed the bird-notes from their bo ders,
Withered dead tbe flowery maze ;

Tenderly its sad refrain,
As though lulling wearied nature
To her long, deep slumbering.
Musing in the rustling forest, . • -
With the dead leaves scattered r, und,

From the verdant tasselled pine
Low mysterious sighs and sobbings
Whispered voices half divine.
Indian summer ! how like magic •
Memories cluster at the name 1
Memories of a race long blighted
Of a wild yet princely fame;
Fancy views the lonely wigwam—
Dark-eyed maidens of rare charms—
Sable chieftains imgrave'counsel—
Dusky warriors clad in arms !
Dreamy days of waning autumn,
Loveliest, saddest of the year !
Many a lesson, mystic poem, ,
Read we from thy leaves so sere !
Though life's June e'er soon is vanished,
As glad music's answering thrill
Yet may sound its drear November . ,
Light and beauty linger still.
asr One -night General , of
Sherman's army, was out on the line,
and observed .a light on.-the mountain
opposite. Thinking it was a aiinal
light of the enemy, he remarked to hut
artillery officer that a hole could ef.sily
be put through it. Whereupon the
officer, turning to the corporal in charge
of the'gun, said : "Corporal, do yon see
that light ?" "Yes, Sir." "Put a Lole
through
.it," ordered the captain.
The corporal sighted tha gun, and when
all was ready, he looked up 'and
"Captain, -that's the moon." "D. ii't
care for that," was the captain's ready
response,: "put a hole through : it aay
how."
sir At the Brandy House, Harris
burg, a few days since, twojrienda were

The Management of .Boys.
How greatly do parentsand pre cep

torserr in mistaking for mischief or
wanton idlenesti, all the little inanceuVres
of young persons, which are frequently,
practical inquiries to, confirm or refute
doubts passing in their minds. When
the aunt of - James Watt reproved the
boy kir •his.idleness, and desired him to

little was she aware that he was inveSti
gating a problem which was to lead, to
the greatest of ntnari "inventions.
It has been said that we are indebted
for the important invention in the steam
engine' termed hand gear, by
. which its
valves or cocks are worked by the ma
chine itself, to an idle boy of the name
of fluinphrby Pottei,'Whobeing employ
ed.
to stop and open a valve, saw that he
could save himself the trouble of atteAd
ing and watching it, by fixing a plug
upon a part of, the machine which came
to the place at the proper times, in con
sequence .of the general movement. If
this anecdote he true, what., does it
prove? : That Butophrey .Pater might
be very idle, but that he was, at the
same time, very ingenious. It Was
contrivance, not the result of mere acci•
dent, but of some obsertiOn and sue
cessful experiment.
The father of Eli Whitney on his re.
•
turn from a journey which' necessarily
compelled him to aNent himself from
home for several days, enquired, as was
his usual custom r into the, occupations
of his sons during his, absence. He. re
ceived a good account of.all of them;ex-.
cept Eli; who, the housekeeper reluct
antly•confessed. Aad been ..nngageil in
making a fiddle, "Alas I" says the
father, with-a sigh-and ominous shake
orthe bead," 'I fear that Eli will hays
some day to'take his portion out in fid
dles," To haie anything to do about a
fiddle, betokened; the father thought,' a
tendenCy to engage in mere trifles.
How little aware was the father, that
this simple occupation, far from being
altogether a mere fiddle-faddle, was th,e
dawning forth of au inventive genius to
be , ranked among the most effective and
useful in respect to, arts and manufac
tures.
It is related of Ohantry, the celebra
ted sculptor, 'that when a boy he was
observed by a gentleman at, Sheffield,
very attentively engaged in cutting a
stick with a penknife. He t6ked the
lad what he was doing. "I am cutting
old Fox's head." Fox was the school
master of, the village. On this, the gen
tleman asked to see what he had, done,
pronounced it excellent, and presented
the youth with a sixpence. How maey
would have at once characterized the
occupation of the boy as it mischievous
or idle one, losing sight, for the time ; of
that lesson. which every parent should
know Now to put into u se,: "Never de. ,
spise small beginings." .
Of Edward Malbone, the painter,
is said, the "intervals of his school
hours were filled by indefatigable indus 7 ,
try in making experiments, andipdeav
oring to make discoverie,s." One of his
greatest delights was found in blowing
bubbles, for the ple'asure of admiring
the fine colours they= displayed; Thus,
it appears, that even' the soap-bubbles

No doubt the question often engaged,,
the attention of his : parents, as to hoW
little Neddy Should be broken of the
habit'of sketching so much on' almost
everything about the house. The father'
finding; howciverl•thatlislove of draw

When young West, firstbegan to dis
play skill.in drawing, and .learned from
the,roaming jndiansthe method of pre
paring colours, he was at a less to con- .
ceive how tolap these colours, skilfully
on. A neighbor ...informed him that
this was done with brushes fobnied of
camel's hair ; there were no camels in
America, and he' had recourse to the
cat, from whose back au4.tail he suppli
ed his Wan'ts. The cat was a favourite,
and the altered condition of her fur
was imputed to disease, till the boy's
confession explained the cause, much to
the amusemeritof his father, whO rebu
ked him not rashly, but . as- becbmeth a
wiseparent, more in. affection than- in
anger. To rebuke ertch.an• act wisely,.
required on•theii patti-.of the_ parent, a

Yes, Compositions we are to have
twice a month. This we think a very
hard task; yet it is a duty imposed upon
us for our good. It teaches us to give
expression to our thoughts on paper for
the benefit of the whole school instead
of uttering them tcrone or two, which
we are apt to do at improper times much
to the sorrow of our teacher. When we
are requested to write our thoughts we
think, - Oh, here comes 'the tug of war"';
yet whenlve•take our slate and 'pencil,
