A hake la the Glass: A Homily.
BY JOHN G. BAX
Come listen awhile to me, my lad,
Come listen to me for a spell
Let that terrible drum
For a moment be dumb,
For your .unole is going to tell
Mutt befell
A youth who loved liquor too well
A clever young man was he, my lad,
And with beauty uncommonly blest,
Ere with brandy and wine
He began to decline,
And behaved like a person possessed;
I protest
The temperance plan is the best.
Qne evening he went to a tavern, my lad,
He went to a tavern one night,
- And drinking too , muoh
Rum, brandy, andauch,
The ohap got exceedingly " tight ;"
And was quite,
'What your aunt would entitle a "fright;"
'The fellow fell into a snooze, my lad;
'T is a horrible slumber he takes—
He; troioiblet With fear,
And acts very queer ;
; eyes! how he shivers and shakes
When he wakes,
4rtd raves about, horrid great snakes !
'Pis a warning to you and to me, my lad,
A particular caution to ali—
t Though no one can see
The riper but he—
To hear ;the poor ` lunatic birwl,
I , How they crawl!
All °var. the floor and the wall!"
Next morning he took to his bed, my lad,
.Next miming he took to his bed;

To dine or to sup,
Though properly physloked awl bled;

medicine, to pronounce upon its merits. We
love to read, but somehow we never have been
willing to turn Doctor." When anything se
rious seems to be the matter, we invariably call
in a regular physician. And to do so, is the ad
vice we give to all. Men who make medicine
their one study, under the best of - teachers, and
who devote themselves to its practice, and who
are ever gaining knowledge, both from reading
and experience, are the only persons to whom

It was a 'pleasant dayin that particularly
pleasant part of Summer-time which the
boys call " vacation," when Lion and Tom
walked slowly down the street together.
You may think it'strange that I mention.
Lion first, but I assure you Tom would
not have been the least offended by the
preference. Indeed, he would have as
surred you that Lion was a most wonderful .
dog, and knew as much as any two boys—
though this might be called rather extrav
.
agent.
Nearly a year ago, on Tom's birth-day,
Lion arrived as a present from Tom's un
cle, and as he leaped with a dignified bound
from thecarriage in, which he made his
journey, Tom looked for a moment into his
great wise eyes, and impulsively threw his
arms around his shaggy neck. Lion, on
his m
part was pleased. with. 'l''s, bright
face, andi most affectiOnately . licked
smooth cheeks. So the league of friend
ship was complete from that-hour.
Tom soon gave his school-fellows to un
derstand that Lion was a dog of superior
talents, and told them that he meant to
give him a liberal education. So, when ;
Tom' studied` his lessons, `Lien too as fur- -
nished with, a book, an w
, sitting. by Tones
side, he_ would' pore over the pages with an
air of great profundity, occasionally grave
ly turning a leaf with his paw. Then
Lion was taught to go to the Post Office, and
bring home the daily paper. He cmild also
carry a basket to the baker's for Cfackers and
cake, and putting his money on the counter
with hie mouth, he would wait patiently
till 'the basket was, filled, and then trot
"faithfully home... Added to allthese graces

tnotlufs garden, and was all ready for a
little amusement. do the two went up to
gether and enjoyed themselves highly for a
long time. But at last arose one of those
trifling disputes in which little boys are
apt to indulge. Pretty soon there were
angry words, then (0 how sorry I am to
say it 1) Tom's wicked passion -got the
mastery of him, and he beat little Dick
severely. Lion, who must have been
ashamed of his master, pulled hard at his
coat, and whined piteously, but all in
vain. At last Torn stopped from mere ex
haustion.
" There, now !" he oried, ".which is
,
right, you or I ?" ...
"I am, " sobbed Diek, "and you teat a
Tom's face flushed crimson, and darting
upon Dick, he gave him a. Sudden push.
Alas! he was too near the open door.
Dick screamed, threw up his arms, and in
a moment was gone ! Tom's heart stood
still, and an icy chill crept over him „ from
head to'foot. At first he could not , ,stir;
then—he never knew how he got there, hut
he found himself standing beside hii little
friend. Some men were raising him care-,
fully from.tlae.hard sidewalk.
".Is he .dead?" ; almost screamed Tom.
" No,” replied, one,," we hope not. , How.
did :he fall out ?"
"'He did 't fall out," grOaued Tom, who
never could• be so mean as to tell a lie • " I
pushed him out."
"You, pushed him,. you wicked boy,"
cried a .rough voice. Do you 'know you
ought to be sentstd jail; and irlindies, may
be you'll be hiing!
Tom grew aa, white as Dick, whom he
had'followed into the store, and he, heard
all that passed as if in a dream
" Is he badlY hrirt ?"`crielf some One::
" Only his hands,". was the answer.,
"The rope, saved him. He caught hold
.of the rope and, slipped down; but his
hinds are dreadfully torn—he has fainted
from pain!'
just _then- Torn's, father-. came in-,- and
soon understood the case. The look he
gave his unhappy son, full- of sorrow,
not unmingled with pity,:was hie much for
Tom, and he stole out, followed by the
faithful Lion. He wandered to the woods.
and threw himself upon the grouod. One.
hour ago he was a happy boy, and now
what a terrible change ! What, had made
the difference ? Nothing; but the
gettee of this wicked, violent temper,- His
mother had often warned him of the fear
ful consequences. 'She had told 'him that.
little boys who would not learn to'goVern,
themselves, grew up to. be very ' wicked
men,, and often became - murderers iv some
moment of passion. And now Tom shud
dered to think he was almost a murderer I
Nothing but God's great mercy in putting
that rope in Dick's way, had saved . him
from carrying the load of .sorrow and guilt
all the;rest of his life'. I , l3iit poor Dick,• he
might die 'yet,--4tow pale' he ' looke&--how
! Tom fell'-upon his knees,' and
'prayed to God to . spare Dick's life, and
from that time forth, with God's help,. he
promised that he: would' strive to cofiqUer
this wicked passion.
Theo ~as he could no lonotr bear his ter
rible suspense he started for widow Ca
sey's cottage. AS he appeare4 at the hum
ble door, Mrs. Casey angrily ordered ,
him away, saying, " You have made a
poor woman trouble enough for one day."
Nit Dick's feeble voice entreated : " 0
mother, let him come in; I was just as bad
as he." •
Tom . gave a cry of joy when he heard
these welcome tones, and sprang hastily
in. There sat Dick with his bands bound
up, loolcinc , very pale, 'but Torn thanked God that lie .s was alive.
"I should like to know how I am to live
now," sighed Mrs. Casey: " Who' will
weed my, garden, and carry - my vegetables
to market?. I •am afraid• we shall:suffer
for bread beforuthe Summer is over," and
she put her apron on her eyes.
Mrs. Casey,' . ' cried -Tom, eagerly,." I
will do everything that Dick did. will
sell the potatoes and beans, and will even
drive,Mr. Brown's cows to pasture.
Mrs—Casey shook her head. incredulous
ly, but, Torn bravely kept his word. For
the nest few weeks Tom was at his post
bright and - early,
,and the garden was never
in better order. And every morning. Lion
and Tom stood faithfully in the market.,
place with their
,baskets, and never gave
up, DO matter how warm, the, day, till the
last vegetable was sold, and, the
~money
placed faithfully in Mrs. Casey's hand:
'
Tom's -father often passed through the
market and gave bialittle son an encour
aging smile, - but he aid not offer to help
him out, orbis diffibUlty; Jro he knew if
Tom 'struggled on alone it would be`a Ics
con he would never forgot. Already he
was becoming so gentle and patient 'that
every one noticed the change, and his
mother rejoiced over , ttie sweet fruits of his,
repentance and self 7 saerifice. - -
After a few , .weeksthe banda.geS were 're
moved from Dick's hands, but , they had
been -unskilfully treated; and were , drawn
up in very stranger , shapes. ' Mrs. Casey
could, not. conceal her grief. He will

Tom was hurrying off-when he turned, and
cried, in a choking voice:
" You will be kind to him, Major White,
wont you ? Don't whip him, I never did,
and he's the best dog—"
" No, no, ehild," said Major White, kind
ly, " I'll treat him like a prince, and if you
ever want to buy him back, you shall have
him."
Tom managed to falter " thank you," and
almost flew out of hearing of Lioll' . B eager
stretching on the barn door.
I am making my story too long, and can
only tell you, in a few words, that Tom's
sacrifice waa accepted. • A friend took little
Dick to the city free of expense, and Tom's
money paid for the necessary operation.
The poor crooked fingers were very much
improved, and were soon almost as good as
ever. 'And the whole village loved Tom for
his breve, self-sacrificing spirit, and the
noble amendment he had made for his mo
ment of - Passion.
A ,few_.days after Dick's return, came
Tom's birthday, but he did not feel in his
usual spirits. In spite of`his great delight
in Dick's recovery, he had so .mourned over
the matter, and had taken. Lion's loss so
much to heart that he had grown quite
pale autfthin. So as he was permitted to
spend the day as he pleased, he took his
book and went to his favorite haunt in the
woods. 1"
" How.different from my last birthday,"
thought Toro. "Then Lion had just come,
and I was so happy, though I didn't like
him half as well as I do now."
TOlll sighed hea.vily, then added more
cheerfully " Well, I hope some things are
better than they were last year. I hope. I
have begun to conquer-myself, and with
God's help never' give up trying
while' I live. Now if I can only earn
money enbugh to buy back dear old Lion"
But Tom 'Was thinking, and gazing
up into tho blue sky through the delicate
green leaves, he heard a hasty, familiar
trot--there was a crashing among the bush
es, and with a quick bark of joy, Lion him
self, the brave Old dog, sprang into Tom's
armsi
" Lion, , old'fellow," cried Tom, trying to
look Fierce, tficiligh he could scarcely keep
down -the: tears, ". how came you to run
away, air ?
Liontetonded by piekingnp . a letter he
had dropped in his first joy, and laying.it

Toni pp'e - ikerl it, and read, in Major White's
tremblirio• hand— -
" ;dear child : Lio`is pining, and `I

to have a good master, and 'knowing that

And then Tom read, through a mist of
tears
P. s.—l.know the whole story. Dear
little friend, be not weary in well doing."'

Preserving Eggs.
The difference in the price of eggs at
one period is so great as to make it advisa
ble to keep them as fresh as possible. Im
mediately when laid, rub them all over
with fresh butter, then pack them in a cask
in regular layers, with the round ends up
permost, and fill up all the vacancies with
wood ashes, covering the layers about two
inches deep with the ashes—they will
come out as fresh six months after as when
newly laid; or the crevices may be filled
up with lime water,•' but in this case must
be used immediately when taken from the
cask. The crevices are sometimes filled up
with the following mixture, viz.: To five
quarts of cold water add one pound of salt
and one ounce of saltpetre; boil together
for about twenty-five minutes, and when
nearly cold, add four table-spoonfuls of
pounded quicklime ; let it stand three days,
stirring it twice a day.—Scientific Amer-
Jewels in Sheep! Ears.
• Mr. H. G. White, of New-Hampshire,
has published his mode of marking sheep,
which is quite a novel plan, but, we think,
a pretty good one. His method is to make
a hole in the lower margin of one of the
ears, and near the-head. In this hole he
suspends a copper or zinc label, with a
number or anything else be wishes stamped
upon it. The label is circular, three quer
tors of an inch across, and is suspended in•
its place by means of the common split
steel rings used for carrying keys on or
galvanized wire may be used for the ring.
This mode may not he quite so cbeap as
cutting or slitting, and there is a possibility
of its being lost or taken off; but where
you wish to number the sheep with refer
ence to a register, or other purpese, it must
be very convenient. —Maine Farmer.
Hay and earighrinkage, by Drying.
The loss upon hay weighed July 20th,
when cured enough to put in the barn, and
again Feb. 20th, has been ascertained to be
27i per cent So that hay at $l5 a ton in
the field is equal to $2O and' upwards when
weighed from the mow in Winter. • The
weight. of cobs in a bushel of corn in No
vember,-ascertained:to be 19 pounds, -were
only pounds in May: The cost of grind
ing a bushel of dry cobs, countinghandling,
hauling, and miller's , charges, is about one
cent a pound. -Is the meal worth- the

What England Pays in One Year for Manure.
It is estimated• that :England pays •annu
ally three hundred 'millions of dollars for
manure; more than the entire commerce of
that country. The total:value of a year's
crop was reported to Parliament, sometime
ago, as being about three thousand millions
of dollars; the crop-includes-the animal as
well as, the vegetable. The turnip crop has
been estimated, •.in_ that kingdom, to be
worth -fifteen hundred-millions of dollars.

posT-GRADUATE CLASS FOR
LADIES. •
The Rev. Dr. ALDEN, late Pr aident of Jefferson College,
proposes to give a course of Instruction to a Class of Young
Ladies who have finished their School Education. Ile will
meet the Class one hour a day, four days in the week, from
the first of November to the first of May. No that-hooka will
be used; but, in connexion with the discussion of topics,
references will be made to the best authors for the benefit of
those members of the class who have leisure for reading.
The course will be conducted in such a manner, that those
who can commend one hour daily, can secure all its advan
tages. Dr. A. will endeavor, by questionings and oral dis
cussions, to lead his pupils to perceive truth for themselves.
An experience of more than a quarter of a century spent in
teaching, has convinced him that he can best benefit his pu
pils by placing them face to face with truth, without the
agency of books. Words cannot, then, be easily mistaken
for things.
Special attention will be given to the expression of thought
by word and pen.
It is presumed that the members of the proposed class
have acquired, from the study of Woks, such a degree of
mental discipline and such a knowledge of facts as will
der them prepared for the higher grade of instruction suited
to the most advanced class in college.
The following subjects will receive attention:
1. Inrsti.sornar. PHILOSOPHY.
2. MORAL PHILOSOPHY.
3. PRINCIPLES OF RHETORIC AND CRITICISM AND BSOL IBU
LITERATURE.
4. POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY, including
PRINCIPLES or Govrartanurv,
PRINCIPLES or LEGISLATION,
CONSTITUTION OP THE UNITED STATES,
POLITICAL ECONOMY,
INTERNATIONAL Law.
5. NATURAL TRECIWOY.
6. Evmswora or Cruusrsextre.
On these topics, the pupils will be led, as far as may be, to
per
:rceive truth for themselves.
At the close of each exercise, Dr. A. will remain to criti
cise an essay prepamd by a member of the class Re will
also be ready, at all times, to give advice as to reading and
other departments of mental effort.
TEEPdS--$lOO for the Course; payable On November let,

Applications can be made to Dr. Alden, No. 31 East-22d
or to W. L. Alden, Esq., 48 Pine Street.
The following will shim the estimation in which the enter
prise is held by distinguished citizens of new-York
From Rio. Stephen R. iyng, D.p., Rector of ,St Giorge's
The abovi'plan and course ernineatly deserve and meet
ray approbation, as extremely calculated to prepare the
young ladies, to whom Ureters, for the highest usefulness and
the most rational; happiness of life. T believe:Dr. Alden to be
highly qualified to work out the plan he has piopmed, with
success..:,::. .STEPHEN: T.TNG.
Proih . Wm. C. Bryant, Es 4
I am clad to learn that the Rev. Dr. Alden is about to un
dertake the instruction, in this city, of a class of' young' la
dies in certain branches belonging to, the most advanced
stage of education, and involving principles by which ques
tions relating to the nioarimportant interests of society are
decided., I have a very high opinion of Dr. Alden,, both as a
man and as an instructor.. The extent and exactness of his
attainments; his clearnesi and facility of communication.
and his kindly,inannens, are qualifications of a high order;
but he adds to these one of inestimable value: dilator taking
a profound interest in the task of instruction, and placing
hisambition intheskilful andeuecessful inculcation of knowl
edge. The opportunity of being taught by such a man—so
well endowed, so experienced, and ao distinguished in his
vocation—is not often presented to young ladies anywhere,
and I cannot doubt that many will make haste to take ad
vantage of it It will be a favorable Symptom of the state of
big elligence and the love of useful knowledge in this commu
nity, if this class should be immediately filled up.
WM. C. ftRYAi T.
Prom alas. Ring, LL.D., President of Columbia College.
Dr. Alden proposes to form and instruct,e, Class of Young
Ladies, who, having passed through the elementary parts of
education. may desire to proceed to' some higher culture.
Dr. Alden is thoroughly capable—has the , benefit of much
experience as a teacher—and the enthusiasm in his vocation
which begets enthusiasm, and so ensures Success.
'CIEf. WINO.
From Rev. /mac Gl:ancetlar of the
University' * of Me Gay of New-York,
h. regard it as one or the most important events in the de
partment. of education, that a higher t onrse of mental train
ing is about to be offered to young ladies, who have comple
ted the usual Academic studies, by Dr. J. Alden, President of
Jefferson :College: No man within the range of myncquaint
anon is better fitted than he to accomplish what he proposes
in his circular. His past success is a sufficient guarantee of
whit he will do in this, altogether new, effort in our city.
I;do most heartily commend the matter to my lady - friends.'
, • : ISAAC PERRIS:
From Frorace Trebster, LL.D., President of the'NetO-York
Free Academy. ' .
I have examined, with pleasure, a plan proposed by the
Rev. Dr. l Iden, for aposbgraduate course of instruction for
young ladies of tide city.- The plan is an excellent one, and,
carried m e et - under-the personal supervision of Dr. Alden, One
of the most philosophic and distinguished educators in this
country, cannot fail of proving highly beneficial to those who
may enjoy the advantages of his instructio n. ..... . .
Prom Rev. Sc . frerasela Senior _Editor of the
New-York Observer
It has given me much satisfaction to hear that the Rev: Dr.
Alden is about to enter upon the work of Education in this
city. Di comes from the presidency of Jefferson College,
where he has been eminently successful in all relatiene, be
lug Compelled by the health of the family to change Ma resi
dence. In his profeasouship at Williams, and hispresidency,
at Jefferson, he acquired a wide nad . well-earned reputation
as rkteaeher, dialibirting with thorough and varied scholar
ship, a peculiarly facile, genial and pleasing method °rim: ,
parting knowledge, making the mysteries of science easily
intelligible to the young, and rendering the abstruse studies
of the higher departatents of learning a pleasant pursuit.'
The plan that he now proposes, will- not fail to be appro.;
dated by parents who desire ta give their daughters the. ad
vantages of the highest finish in intellectual culture, under
circumstances peculiarly favorable to their improvement and
enjoyment.- ' * . S.JANICEI:IB PRIME.
Prom Rev ...Udward Bright, Editor of the Examiner.
I very, cordially subscribe to all that my friend Prime .ltes
here said of the Rev. Dr. Alden and his enter-prise.
From 'Wm. Adams, D.D., Pristor of the Madison !Ignore
Presbyterian Church.
Having great confidence in Rev. Dr. Alden a' a auccessful
teacher, I cheerfully commend to the notice of my, friends
his project as stated above. APANIS

From Bev. Thos. B. Verrnitye, D.D., „LL.D., one of the Pas
tors of the Cbttegiate Dutch 6hurch. .
I have long been acquainted with Dr. Alden, and have long
regarded hum•is Oneuf nut mostable and thorpugh instruc
tors. In the department to which he has devoted himself, as
President of Jefferson College, he is, I think, nnanrpassed,
perhaps uorlialled; The plan for a Young Ladies' Post-
Graduate Claal covers that department; and' I can have no
doubt that it will be carried out wittrefbeiency, and will be •
of singular advantage to those. who may:avail themselves of
it. THINS. B. P.P.RMILY.E.
