by B. S. DaokOirood-Street, Pittsburgh.
In the treatise before ike; the distinguished au
thor discusses the subject of Civil or Social Lib
erty. The entire doctrine presented is embraced
in the two following MaxiMSl'Sret,
," that the
individual itrnot aceountable' to society for his
actions, in sa far "as; these concern the' interests
of no, preen bid himself." Secondly, "that for '
suet lidtiorts'att are prejudicial tolitetinterests of ?
others; the individual is accowatabletl and may
be subjected either to social or to legal punish
ments,
if society is of opinion that the one or the
other is requisite for its protection." With the
essay in
. the main we are 'highly pleased. We
must take particular exception, however, to what
is suggested in regard to the incompleteness and
intidiqfairof the Sacred Scriptures la It. code of
morals. We dissent. entirely from "the author
when be says, I believe that other ethics than
:
any; which be can evolved` from exclusively
Christian sources, must exist aide by side with
Chriiittin n ethica to produce the moral regenera
tithrtpankind."

BY FREDERICA BREMER.
I have a little girl at my hearth, in my
home ; she is not mine—l wish she were
But she is my daily enjoyment, and I can
not but wish that every home in this, our
world, had such a little girl as its own !
Not that I think little girls in general to
be such precious rarities, for" there's plen
ty, of them in the world"--or ,a bit better,
for the comfort and' happiness of home,
than an old lady, with mild eyes and sweet
words of wisdom on her lips; and I know
more than one little girl who" - adds not a
whit to the comfort of home, but rather
something the reverse. But my little girl,
she whom I wish were mine, is the very
reverse of the uncomfortable one. Nobody
ever saw her surly or sour, or tiresome, or
asking, " What shall I do?" No, she
seems born with a peculiar clearness of
What she has to do in this World, and what
sheds here for. It is, therefore, perhaps,
that her eyes shine so cheerily and bright
every tiara' morning, and that ehe is up
and dressed almost as soon_ as she is awake.,
And then you mighty see her, washed, and .
nice'and rosy as '` a dewy rosebud standind
by her mother's knee, thanking the good
Father in' . *Veit for the repose of •the

for'all little girls. After this she goes to
work. She helps the maid to make fire in
the irien','"she likes to light the fire, and
the wocul seerrla to,burn all, the brighter
when it is
— the little girl "ivlies' lights it.
Thenr she helps mamma at the:breakfast

old granditrina are - ft sit—what Cups and
things they prefer, she pats everything
right.. Then' she starts off •for little broth
er; "the baby," :who is heard to'grumble
his cradle; and she ' wants to, prevent,
getting out of humor in 'the morning, for
which he has great aptitude. And just as
he is beginning to grumble, lo -there she;
stands by his cradle smiling over him, tak
ing him up, kissing him ,
„commiserating
and: ii
describable but melodious tones, of which
good little girls have alone the seeret, and
whichrmakelcabY forget that he intended
to quarrel withAbelVorld and his famiq,,"
and lets him give way to a joyous smile.
And now he nirst . be dressed—which is

"There, we' are ready 1" And now baby
is.taken up in little sister's arms, and car
ried out to say good-morning to papa, and
mamma, and grandutamma, and kiss and be
kissed all round.
After this he is to have his breakfast.
It is the little girl who gives it him—who
tastes the porridge, that it may not be too
hot—who breathes cooling over it until it
is just right, and carries it to. his mouth
with recommendations to open it wide grand

Lastly, she discloses her own little heart
in the bosom of the Good Father, telling
him her secret anguish if she has commit
ted some fault, or her most secret wishes
and hopes. She has some ambitious ones,
the little girl, for the time when she "shall
be great.' She has some ideas of building
a house for father and mother, and grand
mamma, but not for little brother, for he
shall also become "great," and earn to
help himself? And then, when she has
put everything right at home, she will go
out to the people of whom her father has
just spoken, and join those men who try to
make them better and happier ; or she may,
as Robinson Crusoe did, discover and cul

"I do n i t know what you mean," was the
simple answer.
"There, your honor," said the counsel,
addressing the Court, "is, anything farther,
necessary to demonstrate,the validity of my,
'objection ? This witness,should be rejected.
She does not comprehend the nature of, an,
oath."
" Let me see," said the Judge.

Assured by the kind manner and tone of
the Judge, the child stepped forward to
him, looking confidingly •Up in his face,
with a calm, clear eye, and in a manner so
artless and frank; that it Vent straight to
the heart.
"Did - You ever take an oath ?"
the judge. - -
The little child stepped back with' look
of horror, And the red blood mantled in a
blush all over her face and neck as she'an
" No, sir."
She thought he intended to inquire-if
she had ever blasphemed.
"I do =not moan. that," said the judge,
who saw her mistake;
" I mean were you.
ever a witness before?"
"No, sir; I was never in court before,"
was the answer.
Unhanded her the Bible, open.
" Do you know that bpok,-my.daughter
asked the judge,,
She looked at it, and answered, "Yes,
sir-; it is the Bible." ,
"Do you ever read it?" he asked.
Yes, sir; every evening."'

inquired the judge. "
"It is the worduf the•great . God i " she
answered. • •
" , Well, place your hand upon this Bible,
and, listen to what,' say ;" and hemepeated
slowly the oath usually. administered, to
witnesses.
"Now," said the judge, " you have been
sworn as a witness; , will you tell me what
will befall: you if you do not tell the
truth ?".
",I shall be shut up in the State Prison "
answered the child.
" I shall never go to heaven," She
plie.d

"How do you know this.?" asked the
judge again

asked

ments, and then we kneeled down together,
and she prayed that I might : understand
liow wicked it was to bear false witness
against_ my neighbor, and that God would,
help me, a little child, to tell the truth as
it was before him. And when I came up
with mother, she kissed me, and told me
to remember the Ninth Commandinent,
and that God would hear every word
"'Do you believe-thiti?P asked the l iudge,

In the preparation -of the site for an
orchard, thorough draining of the soil is
uniformly advantageous. This is now
admitted by all good cultivators to, be an
indispensable condition to perfect success
in the production of fine 'trees and hand
some fruit. Wherever there is an excess
of water, in the Soil, at any season of the year,
the' health of the trees; sooner or later, will
be impaired, and - their life - shortened.
Most or the . diseases which have affected
fruit trees'in onr region, such as the:Spot
ting of the' foliage,decomposition of the
bark,
,and the blasting and the cracking of
the' fruit .are :Attributable to uncongenial

pOST-GRADUATE CLASS FOR
The Rev. Dr. ALDEN, late President of Jefferson College
proposes to give a course of Instruction to a Clans of Yuan.
Ladies who have finished their School Education. He will
meet the Class one hoer a day, four days in the week, from
the first of November to the first of May. No text-books will
be used; but, in connexion with the discussion of topics
references will be made to the best anthore, for the benefit C.
those members of the class who have leisure for reading.
The course will be conducted in such a manner, that those
who can command 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 epcnt in
Matting, has convinced him that be 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 tbeexpremdon of thought
by word and pen.
It is presumed that the members of the proposed class
hive acquired, from the study of books; such a degree of
mental discimine and such a knowledge of facts as will ren
der them prepared fur the higher grade of instinct - lon suited
to the most advanced class in college.
The following subjects will receive attention :
7. INTELLECTUAL PIIILOEOPHT.
2. Nottar PRILOSOPHT.
3- PRINCIPLeiII OP RHETORIC AND CRITIONDI AND RIO:FLIER
LITERATURE. •

6. EVIDENCES OF CHRISTIANITY.
On these topies, the pupils will be•led, as, far as may be,
perceive truth for thetneeivee..
