'Upon the appearance of the two former

pression -of our high opinion of its accuracy,
irondeilitl research, and importance to the schol
ar Ind - general reader. The third volume is
fully equal to the two that preceded' it in
every particular. The translation is elegant;
and the notes and appendices illustrating the
history and geography of Herodotus, from the
most recent sources of information, and embody
lug the chief results, historical and ethnographi
val, 'which. have been obtained in the progrese of
cuneiform and hieroglyphical discovery, are a

For several years, frequent mention has been
made by those interested in commercial matters,
of the opening presented in Northern Asia to
trade and civilization. And the Russians, ever
to . seize upon every faloroble point for the
'e'itetision . Of 'their -influence, took -possession of
; theAmoor . Country. and formed a settlemenU at
th'd . thotitlf or tie 'river in 1854. The Amoor
the river by Which the whole -of Northern
Asia is &wined, and is the great channel by which
it is expected' "American trade and manufactures
will be introdtibed to that. country..
The author of the book before us traversed
'the :entire Russian. Empire. from West to East,
drinised'Siberia, entered Tartary, and descended
the Amoor from its source to its mouth, a dis
tance of two thousand miles. Re has here liven
us a' tidnute . description of 'the whole country
washed by that river, in' ft clear and vigorous
style. Re visited every city on its banks, noted
the peculiarities, character, and manners of the
people, the condition of trade, industry, and so
- and. the comparative wildness or cul
tivation of the adjacent countries.

Some seven or eight years have elapsed since
anything new has appeared from Mr. Haw
thorne's pen; and consequently his admirers will
hail these two volumes with an unusual degree
of interest. Nor will their gratification be les
sened by discovering in-this work a harmony and
beauty of expression, wwarrath of coloring, and
a healthfulness of-sentiment, -that can be found
in none of his previous productions.
The scene is , laid in Italy, where the author
resided a number of years, and its most delight
ful pagetrare a record of the impressions made by
the master-pieces of ancient and modern art in
liome;.'and by Itttlian scenery and climate. This
peculiarity gives to the narrative much of the
living interest that springs from a book of travels
of. the'highest order. Two of the characters are
American artists. Only four personages are
brought into prominent notice ; but great in
dividuality is given to them, and their characters
are' drawn with more skill than is usual with
even 14r. Hawthorne. These volumes possess
wonderful' fascination, both as a work of
,imag
ination and as a picture of Italian life.

Drowning. the Squirrel,

morning,.going
~to school,.a -ground .squir
rel.- ran into his 'hole in the ground before.
me ; as - they like to dig holes in some open
place, where they can -put out their hands
'to see if any 'danger 'is near. I.thought
now I will have , fine fun. As there was a
stream of water just at hand, I determined
'to pour water , in the hole till it would be
full, and 'force the little animal up, so that
I might 'kill it. I got a trough beside a
sugar maple, used for catching sap, and was
soon pouring the water in on. the squirrel.
I could hear it struggle to get up, and. eaid,
"Ali, my fellow,' I will soon have you 'out."
Just then 'I heard a voice behind me,
"Well, my boy, What have you got there ?"
I turned and saw one of my neighbors,
azood old man, with long white locks, that
had seen sixty Winters.
" Why," ; said I, ".I have, a ground squir
rel in here, and am going to drown him
out."
Said' he : " Jonathan, when I was a little
boy, more than, fifty years ago, - I was en
gaged one day just £L . 9 • you are, drowning-a
ground squirrel, and an old nian came along,
and said to me, 4 You are alittleloy'; now
if you were down in a narrow hole like
that, and I should come and pour water
down, upon you, would you not think I was
cruel? God made the little squirrel, and
life is as sweet :to it as you; and why will
you torture to death a little innocent crea-
Ute.that God las made ?'"
Said he: "1 never: have forgotten that,
and .never shall. I never,have killed any
harmless creature for fun, since. Now, my
dear boy, I want you to remember this
while you live, and when tempted to kill
any poor little innocent animal or bird,
think of this, and mind, God don't allow
us to kill his creatures for fun."
More thane forty years have since passed,
and I have never forgotten what the good
man said, not have killed the least animal
for fun since that advice was given, and it
has-not lost its influence Yet. How many
little creatures it has saved from being tor
tured to death I cannot tell, but I have no
doubt a great number, and I believe my
whole life has'been influenced l'y it.
Cleaning the Lips.
No' feature in the face of a child is love
lier than the lips, with rows of pearly teeth
playing hide-and-seek behind them. But
ah, sometimes mouths ;which look like rose
buds, send forth words unfit for a mother's
ear—unfit for the Ear in heaven ! Some
boys who would not dare 'to take God's
name in d iain, Eay what is coarse and im
pure, foygetting that this, also, is sin.
We knew a dear old lady who many
years ago taught a little private school iu
NeW-England town. Her heart was pure,
and therefore her words were: sweet. She
loved the blessed Saviour, and cared most
tenderly .for the lambs of his fold.' She
seemed to live in the little children's world,
rejoicing and suffering with them. She
had always something pleasant to say,-abd
a flower ora kiss to give; so that the schol= ars loved the , sehool-house next best to
" mother's room " at home.
They'-neVei. had to be sent, to. School, but
ran off cheerfully before nine o'clock, that
they might speak to her before the little
bell rang. She believed what Solomon
said'about the "Tod of correctibn;" but,
in some way, she got along without using
it very often. Once her heart was deeply
wounded by hearing that a little fellow had
spoken unclean .Iverdi When out at play.
- When forced to punish very little ones, she
used to take them on her lap ; but as Mas
ter Charlie was nine years old, she called
him to stand' before her. Taking: both his
hands between her own, and looking into
his blue eyes, she asked, " Have you been.
using wicked words to-day, my dean?"
I did - n't -swear," whimpered Charlie_
"Are'you willing to go; home, and 'rel
peat all you have said in your mother's
presence ?"
Charlie hung.his head and colored deep
ly, and whispered, "No ma'am; because it
would grieve her."
"And have you forgotten, my dear boy,
that One who is far holier than she, has
heard in heaven the naughty words which
came from those little lips to-day ? I am
afraid there is something Unclean in your
heart; but, as I cannot reach that myself,
I will ask Jesus to do it; I can reach your
lips; and as I'm sure they are not fitto
give yeur mother the 'good night kiss,'
nor to say your prayers, I will cleanse them
for you. She then took -from her desk a
bowl;-of water, a tiny bit of Soap, and a
small sponge, and, bidding Charlie open
his mouth, she washed it, welf—teeth,
tongue, lips and all ! She then wiped
them 'clry with a soft napkin, and bathed
his tear-stained face, on which she preSsed
the kiss of forgiveness. This simple pun
ishment and the real sorrow of her who
inflicted it, made a deep >impression on the
minds of her scholars. Charlie is now
almost a Man, but never, since that day, has
an impure word escaped his lips. At the
very thought of such, a word, he. fancies
that he'tastes soap; and that he hears again
the gentle rebuke of his first teacher.
Finding Fault with lour Children. "
It is-at-times necessary to, censure, and
punts_ut very much more may be done
by encouraging children when they do well.
, Be, therefore, more careful to express your
approbation of good conduct, than your dis
-approbation of ;bad. Nothing can more
discourage a child, than a spirit of inces
sant fault-finding on the part of its parent.
And: hardly anything can exert' a:more in
jurious influence-upon the disposition both
of the parent and the child. There are
two great motives influencing human ' ac
tions 3 hope and fear. Both of these aie 'at
times necessary. But who would not pre
fer to have her Child infhienced to good
conduct by the desire of pleasing, than by
the fear of - offending. If a mother
,never
expresses her gratification• when her chil
dren do well, and is always censuring them
when she sees anything amiss; they are dis
couraged and unhappy. Their disposition
becomes hardened. and soured by this cease
less fretting, .and -at last finding that
whether they do well or ill, they are equal
ly found fault with, they relinquish all
ciforts.to :please, , and.become heedless of re-:

the press, for, our fellowcitizeos, jnet what we dcifor Calvary
ti
congregaon every Sabbath; that is, to eirpouud,.explain and
preach to them the Word of the Living God. We would, if
possible, furnish sermons to be rend on the Lord's day, in the
lonely place of our valleys and mountains, where there is no
pastor or evangelist to open his mouth and chow the way of
ealvation; and Into the crowded village of miners, farmers,
and travellers, where as yet there is no house of worship, we
, desire to send the Farotterott, to roam to them the Scriptures,
inidlireach unto them Jesus. It, is well known that a largo
number of the half million of souls that tiro on this coast do
not attend any church or meeting-house; many thousands of
them never hear a sermon Preachetifrom year to year. We
Would furnish them with such reading se would remind them
of their•early training—the home of their youth—and -cause
them to seek and serve the (led of their fathers, with n per
fect *heart and a willing mind. Wo hope to make the
EXPOSITOR 'Missionary, that Inity preach even where the
colPoiteur and the evangelist de not go.

We believe a general record like this, to which every one

of great convenience,' not only to clergymen anil otherehurch
