Seasons
O the cheerful budding time !
When thorn-hedges turn to green,
When new leaves of elm and lithe -
Cleave and shed their winter screen;
Tender lanibs life born and'"" bar,"
North winds find no atftrw to bring,.
Vigorous Nature laughs " Ha,, ha,"
In the miracle of spiing.'
O the gorgeous blow: om days !
Wheriliroad flag-flowers drink and blow,
In and out in summer blaze
Dragon flies flash to and fio ;
Ashen branches hang-out keys,
Oaks put forth the rosy shoot,
Wandering herds wax sleek at ease,
Lovely blossoms end in tru.t.
0 the shouting harvest weeks !
Mother earth grown fat with sheaves,
Thrifty &nuer finds who seeks; I
Russet golden pomp of leaves .
CroWns e the woods, to fall at length ; •
Bracing winds are felt to stir,
Ocean gathers up her strength,
Beasts renew their dwindled fur.
O the starving winter lapse 1
Ice-bound, hunger-pine . hed and . dim
Dormant roots recall their saps, •
Empty nests show black and grim,
Short-lived sunshine gives no heat,
Undue buds are nipped by frost,
Snow sets forth a . wiuding sheet,
And all hope of life seems lost.
A MIXIS' or BABIES —An exchange
gets off the following funny row among
the babies and their mothers ; Some
time ago there was a dancing party given
up "North ;" most of the ladies present
had little babies, whose noisy preversity
required too much attention to - permit
the mothers to enjoy the dance. A num
ber of gallant young men volunteered to
watch the young ones while the parents
indulged in a "break down." No sooner
had the women left the babies in charge
of the mischevious imps than they stripp
ed the infants, changed their clothes,
giving the apparel of one :to another.
The dance over, it wits time to goe home,
and the mothers hurriedly took each --a
dress of her own and started some to
their home, ten or fifteen miles off and
Were far on their way before daylight.
But the day following. there was a tre
mendous row in the settlement ; mothers
discovered that a single night had chang
ed the sex of their babies—observation
disclosed physical phenomena, and then
commenced some of the tallest female
pedestrianise. Living miles apart it
required two 'days to uumix the babies,
and as many mouths to restore the wom
en to their sweet dispositions. To, this
day it is unsafe for any one of the baby
mixers to venture into the territory.
olar A good wife is one who puts her
husband in at the side of the bed next

boots for him ; never , scolds, never .suff

The following toast was given at a
printer's supper :
"The Printer—independent as a wood

as Job's turkey, and the personification

A -widow lady, sitting by a cheerful
fire in a meditative mood, shortly after
her husband's decease, sighed out: 1 ,-Poor

Anonymous Let',era.
Is IL ever proper to write anonymous
letters? Does any good end sanctify such
meanti e l It is sometimes done inconside
rately and withobt thought of the aeri-
ons consequerMes that may result. In
such cases there is perhaps leis guilt,
especially in yang and thoughtless pee
sons, than when the offence is committed
by older. persons. But is it ever right?
e
It is occassionally done playfully_as
practical joke ; sometimes even n friend •
ship, to Warn an innocent person of im
pending danger; sometimes to prevent
the perpetration-of a wrong ; but, most
frequently the whole thing is the off
spring of malice, revenge, envy, jaalousy,
or some equally evil passion.
Somstimes this is, as we have said ,
begun simply from the hive" of fun and"
mischief. But'inthat case, though it
May seem fin to the writer, it may not
be so to the receiver; and it is impossi
We to calculate the injury to sensitive
feelings and the other evils it may and
does occasion. In such case what is,
written is generally untrue, or,..worse
still, a perversion of some partial truth.
It was a good caution to his son by a
wise old man, who was himself very fond
of fun, never to write a joke, as it might
so easily get into the wrong bands, or
come at a wrong time, when the eye of
the joker could not see the mischief done
nor his tongue repair it. But to write a
perversion of facts, even for fun, often
produces results that no gentleman would
willingly be guilty off. More quarrels
and duels have eventuated from the poi
son thus insinuated into the mind than
can be well conceived.
One of the best anecdotes recorded of
George IV., when' Prince of Wales, was
his kind manner of defeating a trick of
the kind referred to. A very vain man
received a card off' invitation to dine with
him. it was so regularly drawn up,
though a hoax, that it secured him ad
mission. But When the Ptincecame to
see his guests, he discovered that "there
was one mistake ;" and on producing his
card this was still more clear. But the
Prince insisted on his remaining. on the
ground that every gentleman was wel
come to his house, and so the trick was
defeated. Even in cases of, this kind
there is more or less of envy, .jealousy
or malice, and frequently not a little
cowardice at the bottom.
But when the anonymous communica
tion assumes the character, not of a joke,
but of seriousness, it is a much more rep
rehensible matter. Even if what is said
is all strictly true, a question at ace
suggests itself as to the motive - -why be
ashamed to avow authorship, unless it
is something the writer has no right to
communicate ? Perhaps it is told only
to wound in a most dastardly. cruel man
ner. But they who will do this seldom
confine themselves to the truth. They
cannot if they would. Their jaundiced
eyes will discolor everything, and the
person written to has no means of prov
ing or 'disproving for himself what is
said. If the. recipient is a wise man,
therefore, lie takes no notice of it in ac
tion, although ,ft may and must torment
hiaP with suspicions of many of his
friends.
Sooner or later the author is almost
Certainly to be detected. No one can
in disguise even their own handwriting
but that the crossing of et - t_or the dot of
an i, or some such trivial peculiarities
may afford a clue. Much less can a per
son disguise circumstances. • When Pro
fessor Webster was tried for the murder
of Dr. Parkman, a considerable portion
of the evidence that brought home the
: crime to him, was the various anonymous
attempts he had made to divert the
search into wrong directions.
The only plausible case of justifiable
anonymous communication is vhsere the
party writing ants lronfdeep friendship,
to pot some indecent person on his guard
and further justice, having no-malignity
against any one. But this will, rarely
be believed, and then why not avow au
thorship ? Nothing but some great
personal danger to the author could jus
tify a concealment by an honorable man.
The want of an authority ought general.
ly to prevent such a communication re
ceiving the attention the truths it con
tains would naturally dernand : Even
iu war friendly information so conveyed
ought to be of facts, all easily,and clear
ly ascertainable, their own vouchers—not
inferences or reasoning or surmises, With

suspected. lie who receives it knower
that some one did it, and may suspect
l twenty of his best friends; really become
ryarn any of theni. or tovhingo
himself on the wrong man. In fact the
community is barraged, insulted, divided,
and justice defeated, perhaps by a little
want of candor and courage on the • part
of one'person.
But there is one description of evils
that should be always-borne in mind by
the person who sits down deliberately •
to write an anonymous letter intended
to make trouble.. It- may deltroy the
love and confidence existing between
parent and child or husband and wife.
It may utterly destroy the -happiness of
whole families, and break up homes that
were peaceful . and joyful until the per
nicious anonymous letter was rebeived.
The circle of mischief,-discord and trou
ble is always widening in such cases,
and it is thus impossib!e for the writer
to calculate all the evil and crime which
-their malicious letter may set in motion.
The lines that run so glibly from their
pen may have for their final catastrophes
such fearful events as suicide or murder.
How the writers of such epistles would
shrink back in alright if they could fore
see such results ! Therefore we say that
no person should write anonymoue let
ters under any circumstances; certainly
no good, brave or wise man or woman
should descend to such work. In almost
all cases where such secret communica
tions are usually made from proper mo
tives, a frank and avowed disclosure of
what ought to be known is the best mode,
and where that is but of the question
the true policy is silence.
Wait !
Wait a moment, young man, before
you throw that money down on the•bar
and demand-a glass of brandy and water.
Ask yourself if twenty-five•cents_cannot
be better invested in something else.
Put it back in your pocket ? and give it
to the little cripple who sells matches
on the corner. Take our word for it
you will nut be sorry !
Wait,.medame—think twice .before,
you decide on that hundred•dollar shawl
A hundred dollars is a great deal of
money ;. one dollar is a great deal, when
people once consider the amount of
good it will accomplish, in careful
hands. Your husband's business is un
certain ; there is a financial crisis close
at band. Whci knows what that hun
dred dollars may be to you yet?
Wait, sir, before you buy that gaudy
amethyst breast pin you are- surveying
sb earnestly through the jeweler's plate
glass windows. Keep your money for
another piece of jewelry—a plain gold
wedding-ring made to tit a rosy finger
that you wot of. A shirt neatly ironed,
and stockings darned, like lace work, are
better than gilt, brooches and flaming,
amethysts. You can't afford to marry ?
You mean, you can't afford not to mar
ry ? Wait, and think the matter over !
Wait, mother, before you speak haish
ly to the little chubby rogue who has
torn his apron and soiled his white ar.
seilles jacket. He is only a child, and
"mother" is the sweetest - word =in all
thu world to him.- Needle and thread
and soapsuds will repair all damages
now, but il you once teach him to shrink
from his mother, and hide away his
childish faults, that damage cannot be
repaired !
' Wait, husband, afore you wonder
andibly.why yo,ur wife don't get along
with family cares and household respon
sibilities "as your mother did." She is
doing her best—and no wcman can en
dure that best to be slighted, Remem
ber the nights she sat up with the little
babe that died ; remember the love and
care she bestowed on you when you,had
that long fit of illness •, do you think
she is made of cast iron? Wait—rwait
in silence and forbearance, and the light
will come back to her eyes, the old, light
of the old days ? . •
Wait, wife, before you speak reproach
fully to your husband when he comes
home late,'aod weary, and "out of sorts."
Ile has worked for you all day long; Le
has wrestled, hand to "hand, with Care
and Selfishness and Greed, and all the
demons that follovi in the train of mon
ey-making. Let home be anbther at
mosphere entirely ;.-let him feel that
there is one place ie. the world where
he eau find peace, and quiet, and.perfect
love !
Wait, bright young' girls, before you
arch your pretty eyebrows, and whisper
"old maid" as the quiet figure ideals by,
with silver in, its hair and crows-feet
round the eyes. It is hard enough to
lose life's gladness and elasticity—it is
hard-eaough to see youth drifting away,
without adding to the bitter cup one

Wait; 'sir, takers' yton' kdd 8 mum-

horse that Black and White and all the
rest of the "fellows" covet. Wait, and
think whether you can afford it—wheth
er your outstanding bills are all paid
and your liabilities fully met, and all
thi-chabces and changes of life dull
provided for. Wait, and ask yoursel f
how you would like, ten years from now
to see your fair wife struggling with
poverty, your children shabby and want
stricken, and yonrself.a miserable hang
er-on round corner groceries and one
horse gambling saloons. You think.
that is impossible ; do you remember
what Hazael said to the seer of old : "Is
thy servant a dog, that he should do
this thing;?
Wilt, merchant, before you tell the
pale-faced boy from the country "that
you can do nothing for him." Yon can,
do something for him ; you can give him
a word of encouragement, a word of rd
vibe. There was a timb once, when' you
were young, and poor, and friendless I
Have you forgotten It already ?''
Wait, blue-eyed lassie ; wait awhile
before you say "yes" to the dashing
young fellow who says he can't live
without you. Wait until you have as
certained "for sure and for certain " as
the children say, that the cigar and the
wine-bottle, ancf the card table are not
to be your rivals in his heart ; a little
delay won't hurt him--just see if it will !
And .wait, my friend in the brown
moustache ; don't commit yourself to
Laura,Matilda, until you are sure that
she will be kind to your old mother, and
gentle with your little sisters, and a true

For many years the awful evils of in
temperance have been published, able
writers, eloquent speakers have been en
gaged in portraying the evils, but still
it continues, blasting the hopes of par
ents, tilling our jails, hospitals and alms
houses, causing the bitter tears of wives
and children, once happy, to flow, with
awful groans and aching hearts. The
cause of Temperance has, in many in
stances, made happy homes that was
once gloomy and sad. But a great deal
is yet to be done, and who is willing to
lend a helping hand to overturn this
"mass of sin ?" I call upou children to
come to the rescue. They can tear up
the "Upas tree" by the roots. Let the
little hands go to work, and then with a
" long pull, a strong pull and a pull al
together" the tree of death must come
out, and , lay before the public grave a
withering curse ; showing what united
little hands do. Hear what a "reformed
drunkard" once said before a " Band of
Hope Temperance Society": " I have

friends, I have seen more of the world

and has never returned. My young
heart's idol,-my beloved and; linffering

image I seem to see in the beautiful

heart's fervent gratitude to my heavenly
Father, that I have been snatched from
the brink of the drunkard's grave. I
live to be a sober man. And while I
live, I shall struggle to restore my
wandering brethren again to the bosom
of society. This form of mine is wast

just blooming into lifr ; the places of

it will not be long before the darkness
