A Child's Prayer.
I. ask the Lord, who died,
To pardon all the past;
To bless the future with his grace
So long as life shall last.
I ask - the Spirit, too,
To come as gentle dove !
To teach me Jesus! precious name,
And.4ll my heart with love, .
I ask the Father's hand
To guide nay steps aright;
To lead me safe through every snare
To his own home of light 1
There may I joyful meet .
My friends and teachers blest,
And sing with countless hosts his praise,
Whose cross has given us rest!
Nothing to Thank Cod For.
A little girl did not want to pray when
she retired to rest. I do not like to tell
-you her true name, so I will call her
Helen.
Have you nothing to thank God for ?"
asked her mother.
" No," said Helen, " you and papa give
me everything."
" Not 'for your pleasant home r asked
mother. , .
• ie my papa's house; he lets me live
in it
-" Where did the wood come from to
build it ?" asked mother.
" From trees," answered Helen, "and
they grew in big forests."
Who planted the big forests ? Whogave
'rain to water them ? Who gave the sun to
warm them'? Who did not allow the Winter
to kill them, or the lightning to blast them ?
Who . kept them growing from little trees
big enough, to build houses with ? Not
-papa, not man ; it was 'God."
Helen looked her mother in the eye, and
then said, "Papa bought nails to make it
with."
" What are nails made of ?" asked
mamma. -
"Iron," answered Helen, " and mon dig
iron out of the ground."
"Who put iron in the ground, and kept
it there safe till the men wanted it ?" asked
mother. "It was God."
"We got this carpet from carpet men,"
said Helen, drawing her email, fat foot
aoross it.
" Where did the carpet men get the wool
to make it from ?" asked mother.
"From farmers," answered Helen.*
" And where did the'farmers get it ?"
ft From sheep and lambs' backs," said
the little girl.
" And who clothed the, lambs in dresses
good enough.fbr us ? for .your dregs I see,
is mafp of nothing but, lamb's woof. The
best 'thing 'we can get is their cast-off
dresses. Where did the lambs get such
good' stuff
" God gave it to them, I suppose," said
the little girl.
" It is you that gives me bread, mother,"
said she quickly.
‘ liar said her mother, " the flour we
got from the store, and the store Vaught it
from the miller, and the miller took the
wheat from.the farmer, arid the farmer had
it from the ground; did the ground grow
it all itself ?'
" No," cried Helen suddenly, "-God grew
it. The sun, and the rain, the wind, and
the , air are is,.and he. Bent them to the
cornfield. The earth is his, too. And so
God is at the bottom of everything; 'isn't
he, mother?"
" Yes," said blather ; " God is the origin
of every good and perfect gift which we
enjoy.'
The little girl looked serious. She looked
thinking. " Then, mamma," she -said at
last, "teart.'t-anake a prayer long enough
to thank God for.every thing."
" And have =you nothing to ask his for=

The lejan Daughter
. PROV. xu : 10-" The tender mercies Of the
wicked are cruel." .
• " In certain .parts of India a great num
ber of girls are still murdered, immediatcly
after their birth; and indeed this horrible
custom is found not only tmOng p3orfami-
lies, but in rich and, very noble houses.
The wife of an Indian rajah had had, five
daughters, and all immediately after, birth,
at the father's command, and in conformity
to custom, were put to death. At length
the mother's love prompted her to lay some
plaa by which the next might be preserved,
and accordingly, with the' help of a trusty
servant, the sixth child, also a girl, was kie.
crctly rescued. The father gave the usual
bloody order, but without his knowledge it
was not fulfilled, and the child was reared
in secret. True, the mother never dared
to see it for fear of betraying it, and she
died without ever having tasted the mother's
inward joy of pressing her child but once
to her bosom.
In India the, girls are remarkable for
their beauty. Their eyes- are black =and
brilliant, their-features arc , soft and full of;
expression. This maiden, too, grew lip to
the full measure of youthful beauty, and
her nurses and relatives consequently be
lieved that they might now
,present her
boldly tuber father ; : if they could not rely
on her father's heart - yet her beautiful in
nocence, they thought, would secure her
her life; the more so, as she was the perfect
image of her deceased mother. A favora
ble_mement was ehOsen to introduce to the
father his child. Richly attired she ap
proached the astonished chief, fell down at
his feet and exclaimed : "My father 1"
And the father ? For a moment love strug
gled in his bosom with his usual proud,
hard feelings ; but be drew his sword from
its sheath, and with a blow struck off: the
head of the lovely child !
" Oh, mamma ,`I am so sorry about that
death-watch. Vo you think it is really
true ?" •
"- What do you mean, Annie ? Ido not
understand you."
"Oh, did you not know, mamma, that
there's a death-watch in the nursery ? And
we hear it every night, and Jane says it did
come true in the last place that she lived at,
for the eldest young lady died before the
Year was ended."
" What .did came true, Annie ?"
" The sign that the death-watch gave
was a true one, I mean."
"Do you know what the death-watch is,
Annie?"
"It is a straw;•sound mamma."
"But you know there must always be
some cause for a sound. It is either pro
duced by some living creature, or caused
by the action of the air upon some object
not living; as, for instance, the rustling of
the leaves, or the noise that is made upon
the window'when a cart passes the house."
" Then is - the death-sound made by any
thing that is alive, mamma ?"
" Yes, it is, my dear. Would you like
to hear something about it'?"
" I should like to hear all about it very
much, and to see it too, if I could; though'
I think I could not •help disliking it, be
cause it brings such a gloomy message."
" That would not be quite right, to dis
like the messenger because of the message
—would it ? But now, first of all, tell me
what is this sad message which has dis
tressed my little girl ?"
"Oh, mamma, Jane says that whenever
the death-watch is heard in any house, it is
a sign that , ,some one belonging to that
house will die before the end of the year,
and I can't bear to think of it; it
.makes
me quite sad."
—Lutheran
"Do not distress yourself, my child.
Let me - explain to you the cause of this
noise, which has caused you so much pain.
It is made by a little insect—a kind of
beetle—which makes its home in the walls
of old houses; and this tickina. b sound,
which has brought so much terroi to - many
a mind, is only the call which this little
beetle gives to its companions, and which
it keeps repeating till the companion
answers in the same manner. lam afraid
I shall not be able to give you an opportu
nity of looking at one, because these in
sects love to live inside walls; however, I
dare say you would not think it very beau
tiful. A long time ago some people who
could not see anything to cause this tick
ing, and who did not understand much of
the habits and nature of insects, said that
this unusual sound must be the sign of
something dreadful, and concluded that it
was come to tell them that there was soon
to be a death in that house, and there, was
a death there before many months had
passed away, and so it came to be believed
that this sound was always the sign of a
- death in the place where it was heard, and
thus the insect which caused it got the
name of the death-watch. And even now,
though people are not so superstitious as
they used to be, yet many, who do not
know any better, alarm themselves' very
much when they hear this simple sound ;
and yet the same people can, hear the true
word of God spoken to them, saying, 4 Ye
know neither the day nor the hour whefein
the Son of Man cometh,' and feel unmoved.
This shows us how foolish the 'heart of
man 'is."
There are twenty thousand song birds of
different kinds sold yearly : in the eity.of
NeW-York.' Most of these are canaries.
The bird merchants go -to Europe about
the first of August, and buy their. stock of
canaries, linnets, finches, blackbirds; and
thrushes, of the Germans, who raise them
for sale. They come back in September
and October. The pure golden-yellow ca
nary takes the highest price, and they are
sometimes sold as high as twenty-five and
fifty dollars a pair.
Affectionate intercourse with the young
is - a considerable help against the too rapid
invasions of old age. A gentleman of my
acquaintance is accustomed to repeat the
saying of a distinguished man, "If you
would avoid growing old, associate with the
young," assigning as a reason that the old
are so apt to increase their .own and each
other's infirmities by talking them over;
while the cherfulness of the young will do
something to enliven the failing spirits of
our declining years. ' There -is sense and
wisdom in the rule thus suggested.
The pythoness, which was more than a
nine days' wonder last year, is dead. She
had refused all food for twenty-four weeks,
and in the afternoon of last Wednesday
week she quietly' expired. On opening
her.she was found full of eggs; some were
of the size of a hen's egg, and extremely
like it in appearance. It is probable that
her efforts to deposit these eggs was the
cause of her death, but it is pretty certain
that she never completely recovered from
her illness last year, when she performed
the operation of incubation for a long time,
and abstained from food fore thirty-five

At a late meeting of the Wapping (Mass.)
Farmers' Club, the neglect of home pas
tures was the subject of discussion. One
thought no branch of, farining was negleet .
ed so much as pasturing, and no part of the
farm would produce a greater profit. Far
mers began to realize the - importance of
.this and great improvements had been
made within a few years. He knew of a
pasture which ten years ago, was valued' at
$lO per acre, but by cutting the brush, and
sowing plaster and ashes, it is now 'veiled
at $4O per acre. Another pasture has been
greatly improved by the application of sev—
en bushels of ashes, eight bushels hen ma.
mite, and 700 lbs. of plaster, thoroughlY
mixed, and sowed in May; on 14 acres, and
the pasture would keep twice the number
of cows it would before this method was
adopted. It seems to be the general epin:
ion that plaster was the principal renova
tor, but some thought the - beneficial effects
of plaster depended very much upon the
soil. One member had applied it to light,
stony soil, with but little benefit, but on
clay soil its effeet was lasting. One stated
an instance of plaster being sown on' a clay
side bill, and the effect; was perceptible -at
quite a distance and for several years.
With all that has been said upon the
ue of this substance for manure, the last
ten years, it is not half appreCiated. The
majority of our farmers have never. used i t,
and few of them.who use it, conduct their
operations so carefully as to knOwhow muck
it is worth. I am writing in Sight 'of a
clover field dressed With muck, which blos
soms all over in praise of the article. Lu
bin never sent out mich perfume as comes
up from this muck plastered meadow. The
general convietionis ' that muck is good`on
hungry, gravelly soils, and loose sands. It' ,
is, for I have found it thus and seen the re
sults. It may not be known that it is also
good on muck lands. That meadow now so
luxuriant with clover, good for three tons
to the iore, is a reclaimed swamp, and the
manure , was simply dried muck and fish'
pomace at the rate of
,not over five dollars
to the acre. We have repeatedlytried Sta
ble manure composted with muck, upon
the same meadow. with similar results.
The popular faith that it is best for grav
elly, soils, is undoubtedly correct, but is
about good enough, when composted, for
even reclaimed muck ,swamps. And =this
fact is not without its analogies. It is well
known, that soils made up in part „from,
lime rock, are much benefited by applica
tions ot• ' .and granite soils which are
supposed to ,be. rich in potash from, the, de
composed feldspar, show, at once, the effects
of wood ashes.
The muck is ameliorated by the manure,
or ashes with which we have mixed it, and,
it shows its good effect Upon . the grass in a .
powerful manner. After using muck for
ten years and more, we shoUld hardly know
how to farm on sois withmit `The pres

ploposes to give a course of Instruction to a Class of Younx,,
Ladies who have finished their School Education. He wilt
meet the Class one hour a day, four days in the week, from
the first of November to the first Of laity. No text-books wi
be used; but, in connexion with the discussion of topic ,
references will be model° the best authors, for the benefit of
those members of the class who have leisure • for reading.
The course will be concluded 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 dia.
Clash:lns, to lead his pupils to perceive truth for themselves.
An experience of niiire than a quarter of a century spent in
teaching, has convinced him that he can best benefit his pn.
pits by placing them - face to- face' with truth, without the
agency of books. Words cannot, then, be easily mistaken
farthings:* ` •
Special attention will be given to the expression of thought
by wordisnd pen: . •
It. is presumed that the members of the proposed class

to the most advanced class in college.

my approbation, as ex - tactilely calculated to prepare the
young ladies, to whom it refers, for the highest usefulness and

highly qualified to work out the plan he has proposed, with
success. - ' STEPHEN TYNG.
I airs glad 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 moat advanced
stage of education, and iniabiing principles by which ques
tions relating to the most imp,ortant 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 clearness and facility of communication,
and his kindly mannerscare iinalificationa of a high order;
but be adds to these one of 'inestimable value: that of takzug
a profound, interest in the task of instruction, and placing
hie ambition in the skilful and successful inculcation of knowl
edge. The opportunity of:beiug taught by, such a man—so
well endowed, so experienced, and so distinguished in his
vocation—is not often presented to young ladies anywhere,
and I cannot doubt that Many will snake baste to take ad
vantage of it. It will be a favornble symptom of the date of
elligence and the love of useful knowledge in this commu
nity, it this class should be immediately filled npl

Dr. Alden proposes to form and instruct a Class of Young
Ladies, who, having passed through the elementary parts of.
education. mardesire to proceed to some higher culture.
Dr. Alden is thoroughlxospable—han the bet/eat of much
experience as a teacher—and the-enthusiasm in his" vocation
which begets enthusiasm, and so mums success.
From Rev. Isaac Ferris ; LLV, Chancenor of the
Uninersily af,ihe City' of New-York.
I regard it he one or the most important events in the de
partment of education, that a higher t nurse 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 my acquaint
ance is better fitted than. be to accomplish what he proposes
in his circitlar. His past success is a sufficient guarantee of
what ho will do in this,.altogether new, effort in our city.
I do most heartily commend the matter to my lady friends.

carried out under the personal supervision of Dr. Alden, one

may enjoy. the advantages of his instruction.

where lie has been eminently succesifnl in all relatiene, be
