"Willie Winkle" is known to everybody; but so many pleasing associations are interwoven with it, and it has so many natural touches of beauty and simplicity, that we really cannot refrain from giving it entire:— Wee Willie Winkle Bins through the Lona, Up stairs and donor stairs In hie nicht-gown, Tiling at the window, Crying at the lock, Are the weans in their bed, For it's now ten o'clock?" " Hey, Willie Winkle, Are ye coming hen? The•cat's singing grey thrums To the sleeping hen, The dog's ape/deed on the Seer, And diens gie a cheep, But here's a waukrife laddie That winna fa' asleep." Onything but sleep, you rogue Glow'ring like the moon, Rattling in an airn jug W' an aim spoon, Rumblin', tumblin' round.about, Crewing like a 000 k, Skirlin' like a kenna-what, Wauk'nin' sleeping folk. " Hey, Willie Winkle— • The Ifealee in a creel! Wamblin off a body'e knee Like a very eel, Ruggin' at the cat's lug, Rav'llin' a' her thrums— Hey, Willie Wilkie— See, there he comes I" Wearied is the mither That has a atoorie wean, A wee stumple stousie, That oannie sin his lane. That has a battle aye wi' sleep, Before he'll close an e'e— But a kiss free aff his rosy lips Gies strength anew to me. Mr. Miller is peculiarly at home in the nur ttery ; his fluency and ease, together with the naturalness of his diction, cannot fail to make him a favorite at the Scottish ingle-aide. The following little song, entitled the i 4 Sleepy Laddie," is very happily expressed, and shows him in one of his most pleasing nursery moods ; though, in one or two stanzas there are indications of lame lines that might be easily remedied:— Are ye no gaun to wauken the day, ye rogue! Your parritoh is ready and cool in the cog, Auld baudrone sae gaudy, and Tam o' that ilk Would fain ha'e a drap ce my wee laddie's milk There's a wee birdie singing, get up, get up And listen, it says 4 . tak' a whup, tak a whup ;' But I' 11 kittle hie boele-a far better plan— Or pouther hie pow w' a watering can. There 'e clues to. wash, and the house to redd, And I canna begin till I mak' the bed; For I councit no brag to be olever as some, Wha while thrang at a bakin' oan coop the lum It's far i' the day now, and bravely ye ken, Your father has scarcely a minute to spell' ; But se blink o' his wife wi' the bairn on her knee, He says lichtens hie toil, tho' Bair it may be. 133 up to your parritch, and on w' your clues; There 'a afire that might warm the oauld Norian braes; For a coggie weel •fill'd and Akan fire•en' Should mak' ye jump up, and gae. akelping ben. We know no nursery poet who can go into the sacred chambers of a mother's heart and give expression to her feelings with such ease and afLbility as Mr. Miller. Our next extract— " The Wonderful Wean "—is characteristic of parental partiality, as well as the innocent won derings and conjectures of childhood:— Our wean'e tho most wonderfu' wean e'r I Haw, It would tak' me a fang Summer day to tell a' His pranks, free the morning till night shuts his e'e, Whezi he sleeps like a peerie 'tween father and toe. For in his quiet turns, eicoan questions he'll spier : How the moon can stiok up in the sky that's sae clear ? What gars the wind blew ? and wharefrae comes the rain ? Re's a perfect divert : he 'e a wonderfu' wean ! Or wha was the first body's father ? and wha Made the very first snaw-shower that ever did fa'? • And wha made the first bird that sang on a tree ? • And the water that sooms a' the ships on the , sea ?

Niterarg THE PENINSULAR CAMPAIGN IN VIRGIN IA; or, INCIDENTS AND SCENES ON THE BAT TLI6•FIXIMS AND IN RICHMOND. By Rev. J. J. Marks, D.D. 12m0., pp. 414. Philadelphia.: T. B. Lippincott 4. Co. For sale at Presbyte rian Book-Rooms, Hand Street, Pittsburgh. We, last week, brought this work to the notice of our readers, as a new publication, and we made a remark on the Preface. We have since read the book through. As an account of the Campaign, it is very meagre. Comparatively little is said about military transactions. There are "Incidents," however, well narrated, and 66 Scenes " described in a manner deeply inter esting. There are also soma contributions to bi ography. The Story of Matson Yerly, a negro, is admirably told. Dr. Marks is a vivacious writer, and carries his readers with him without weariness. I.it-esftrt....gtakii g . Train up a Child in the way He should Go, and when he is old he will not Deparkfrom it." Such are the words of God. Do we be• lieve them ? The very simplicity of the. Bible is to many minds a great stumbling block. If there were more of argument and less assertion, more doubt and less certainty, it would better suit the tastes of such. But we are to take the Bible as it is. Whatev er it asserts as truth, that we are to receive. Its promises and its treatenings are to be believed. In this spirit we are to take the words we have quoted. No matter about the appar ent exceptions to the rule. With them we have nothing to do. Ten thousand cases may be cited which seem to conflict with the promise, but they are not to disturb or weaken our faith. Either God has made a promise which he is unable or unwilling to fulfill, or else every such case is capable of a satisfactory explanation. Let God be true, should be the spirit and language of every Christian. How plain the direction, how positive the promise ! Let us consider each. To train up a child implies that unceasing care and attention be bestowed, It admits of no in difference or neglect; it is a ceaseless work. But the child is to be trained up in the way be should go.. How much of love, wisdoni, and firmness are required to do this ! Many parents love their children dearly, but they are neither wise nor firm in their manage ment of them. Their care is sleepless, but there is no"discretion. Precisely here is the point of failure in so many cases. Chil dren are not trained up in the way they should go. Not at all. They are allowed to have their own way. To cross the wish es, to resist the desires, and to enforce obe dience, are unpleasant duties for any parent to perform. They shrink from the respon sibility. And yet the duty is ari unmis takable one. But these very persons won der why their children do not turn out better. Let it be impressed on our minds that the promise is based upon the com mand. If the command be neglected, the promise cannot be claimed. But when the command is complied with, the promise can be claimed as absolute and final. The child that is properly trained will not for get or depart from that training in after What an encouravement is this to fidel ity on the part of parents I If they are faithful to their children, they have the promise of God that those children shall be the comfort of their age and blessings to the world. Christ died to redeem our children. The Holy Spirit has come into the world to con vert, sanctify, and save them. All things were provided which infinite wisdom and Jove could devise. It remains for parents to see that their children are so trained as to receive these blessings.—Parish. Visitor. Doing God's Will I suppose most of the readers of this pa per attend Sabbath School. I know some who are very punctual in their attendance, and always recite their lessons correctly without prompting; they seem to under stand what they. learn; but from their con duct through the week I am afraid they stop at this point, and do not remember that they should learn God's word in order that they may make it the rule of life. . The object of the Sabbath School is that children may learn what God has command ed in order that they may obey him. If a father shouldsay to his son in the morning, " John, I want you to go to school, study all the time, learn your lessons perfectly, and come home at noon without loitering by the way "—what would you think of this boy if he would just repeat over his father's words two or three times, and then, instead of going to school, should play all the morning? You would say, " What a strange boy ! Doesn't he know that , his ' father wants him to do as he said, and that he will not excuse him from obeying be cause he can repeat without any mistake all that he told him ? He will deserve the more to be punished, because he knew what was required of him and did not do it." Thus it is with children who go to the Sabbath School and learn what their Father in heaven has told them to do. If they do not obey him they are like this boy, and God will certainly call them to judgment for this, for he has said, " The servant that knew hie Lord's will and did it not, shall be beaten with many stripes."—Chgcl at .Home. A Cup of Cold Water. "Mother,"said little Eunice, thought. fully, " hould love to do good as Jesus did, to the poor people around us here. She had been reading a cliapter in her little Bible, and understood it well, because she thought long over each verse before she went on, and tried to understand it. The Bible is a very clear book if people try to understand it. " We are co poor we cannot do much, can we, mother 7" "We nannot give away much money, Una, for God has not given it to us, but such as we have we can give , as freely as the richest! " But, what have we, mother, that would be of use to anybody 2" " Nobody need be any richer, than we in kind words, and these are worth a great deal to people, especially when they are in need of them. Then, too, when we can help people with our hands, or in any way, we may do them great service. If we even give a cup of cold water to a child, because we love Jesus, he will not let it go unre warded. He notes it down in heaven." 4 ' It pleases Jesus when my little girl is willing to leave her play to help. a poor PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.---WEDNESDAY, neighbor as she did yesterday, by keeping Mrs. Brown's baby while she went to the store. It saved her time and strength, which are both money to her, by not having to carry the heavy child all the way there and back, beside her heavy basket." I am sorry I did not feel willing at first, mother. I think I always shall after this, if it pleases Jesus." "That is the best motive you could pos sibly have," said her mother. "It pleased Jesus, too, when you gave that pretty clus ter of roses you prized ao much, to lame Margaret, who stopped at the fence to look at them whenever she passed. They did her a great deal of good, I am sure, in that close little room of hers just on the street. I saw them in her window a week after wards." Does Jesus notice little flowers, moth er, and he so great, with so meek greater things to think of?" " He notices everything, daughter, in 111 l the universe, for he is God. Not an insect moves its wing without his notice and di rection. Even the hairs of your head are all numbered. There is not an atom of golden dust floating in that sunbeam there but he knows it. And God does not remem ber anything, for it is all now to him. Ev erything that ever has been done, is doing, or ever will be done, is present to his mind always. Oh, what a wonderful God he is I Yet he is our Father, and we may come as near to him as we please, through Jesus Christ, and he will fold us lovingly to his bosom, because he loved his Son so well, and he has redeemed us, if we will only give our best love to him. S. Times. We learn from a correspondent of the Rural New-Yorker, that the farm of Mr. M. L. Sullivan% in Champaign County, 111., is seven miles long, five and a half wide, and contains 22,000 acres. Mr. Sullivant, we understand, has occu pied this 22,000 acres personally but two years. In May last he had 11,000 acres enclosed with board fence, in lots large enough for half a dozen Eastern farms each, and was in a fair way to have the whole so enclosed soon. The surrounding fence, it can be seen; would require to'be something like twenty-five miles long, or 8,000 rods, costing, at $1 a rod, $B,OOO. If we take into account the partition fences, It will appear that Mr. Sullivant must be a large customer to the Chicago or other lumber dealers. The buildings also are very ex tensive, and are becoming more so. Of the 11,000 acres enclosed in May last, 1,800 are devoted to corn, 300 to Winter wheat, 40 to oat, and 1,500 to meadow. The rest is in pasture. It is well enough to estimate that 1,800 acres of corn, at fifty bushels to the acre, would give 90,000 bushels; three hundred acres of wheat, at twenty bushels to the acre, 6,000 bushels; forty acres of oats, at thirty bushels to, the acre, 1,200 bushels; 1,800 acres of guss, at two tons to the acre, 3,600 tons. Mr. Sulli vent sold 22,000 bushels of corn last Spring for upwards of $9,000, and five hundred tons of timothy at $5,000. Besides a little army of men, he employs on this farm, sev enty-five span of horses, seventy-five yoke of oxen, and many mules. Five thousand head of cattle graze his pastures, and at the time our informant visited him, 4;000 government horses were resting in them to recruit from the severities of the war. A blacksmith's shop and a carpenter's shop are employed in the repair of imple ments and farm machinery. An army of men are fed in a great dining•hall, which is said to be admirably arranged. The gar dener grows vegetables for them in immense quantities. On the `fieldsforty plows are going nearly the• whole season, superin tended by a man always on horseback, to ace that each plowman performs hie ap pointed labor in the proper time and man ner. The most perfect order and regularity is•said -to prevail, each overseer reporting to the general superintendent daily, he con densing their reports and submitting his owo, made from them,•to Mr. Sullivant ev ery evening. Everything that transpires ie made a matter of record; and such is the accuracy and care of making up the ac counts, that the profit or loss on each field, every animal, and each particular crop, may be seen at a glance. The books thus be come a history of the past, and in no small degree a directory for the future.--Evan gelist. Hints on Gathering, Fruit The following useful hints are from the Gardener's Weekly Alagazi:ne: - Most people are disposed to gather the Autumn fruits. too soon. They hear the trees creaking in the wind, and they find the, ground strewn with windfalls; from these premises they jump at the conclusicin that the fruit ought to be gathered. Bat a certain per ventage of a crop may fall, from various causes before the crop is ripe. The diseased portion will low its hold, or the wind may dislodge what is sound, long before the portion which remained firm is fit to gather. A rule is generally adopted by gardeners, that if the pips of apples or pears are turning brown, the crop may be taken; but we should rather say that a de cidedly dark and settled hue of , the seed is a safer criterion. As to the objection that waiting late into the Autumn- causes a. loss of the fruit by falling, it has little weight; because it is by this process th&t the weak er and less sound fruit is got rid ot, while the best remains: Taking the crop too early will not only injure the good fruit, by causing it to shrivel, but will also render frequent removals necessary, in order to separate from the stock the rater) ones, which would of themselves have fallen from the trees if more time had been given. A most important matter is gathering the fruit without bruising it in the slightest degree. Apples and pears bought in the market are generally much specked, by which their beauty is spoiled; and most of this is occa sioned by: blows received both in gathering and in rolling the fruit from one basket to another. This can scarcely be avoided When orcharding is carried on largely; but ama teur gardeners cannot well give too much attention to gathering their fruit. Any falling should be obviated, and what does fall should be placed separately. A coat, with deep side-pockets, is better than basket hung to the ladder: and such• re ceptacles being quite under command, may be made to hold a good deal. The kind .of weather during, which the gathering is per forthed is a matter of importance. The trees should be thoroughly dry, and a wit;tdy day chosen if possible." Paring and •Burning Sod Land. This is an operation quite common in England, but almost unkown in this country. We have recommended this practice to some tof our - horticultural friends but they regard - the idea as not feasible.' They think it would cost too muth, - and'that it- would Agricultural. A Large Farm. injure the land instead of benefiting it] The cost is comparatively sligt, and the benefits to be derived from it are so great and so numerous that the subject merits the attention of every gardener and fruit grower in America. The sods are not burnt---they are simply charred. The " ashes" that are left are mixed with the charred remains of the grass roots and other organic matter in the soil. These ashes constitute one of the best fertil izers that a gardener can use. They are free from insects and fungus, and, when mixed with the soil, make it very mellow and porous. Were we going to plant out'a pear orch ard, and the laud was in grass, we woald pare and burn the whole before setting out a tree. It is not easy to give directions how best to conduct the burning process. A little experience is needed. The dry sods are placed around a little straw and 'wood, and the fire started. More sods are added as the fire burns. The fire must not be al lowed to burn through; and it is this point that tests the skill of the operation.— Gen eses Farmer. FORM OF A DEVISE OR BEQUEST TO.

Wunans.s, Many of our churches do not con tribute to our benevolent enterprises, and where as, it is desirable to test the power , of simultal' necius effort; and whereas; an emergency has arisen, requiring the cooperation of all our churches to save our Boards from serious em barrassment; therefore, Betrayed, 1 i That this Assembly earnestly re quest all our churches that have no fixed times for the purpose, to take up annual collections as follows, viz.: For the BOARD ON DOMESTIC MISSIONS on the Finer SABBATH or NOVEMBER. Fur the BOARD OF FOREIGN MISSIONS on the FIRST SABBATR OF jAMMIMY. For the BOARD OF EDUCATION on the FIST SABBATH OF MAME. For the COLPORTAGE FUND of the BOARD OF PUBLICATION on the FIRST SABBATH or MAT. For the BOARD OF CHURCH EXTENSION OD the FIRST SABBATH OF JULY. For the DISABLED MINISTERS' FUND on the FIRST SABBATH OP SEPTEMBER. Resolved, 2. That when the annual collections cannot be taken up on the days above designated, it be recommended to take them up as soon . thereafter as possible. DEW T 'l . S T ;/1. Y.

M. Jackson, of this city, because I was prehadiced against them for many years, under the impression that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture. I am indebted to my friend Robert Shoemaker, RM., for the removal of this prelndlhe by proper tests, and fon encourage ment to try them, when suffering from great and long , con tinued debility. The , use of three bottles of these Bitters, at the beginning of the present: year, was followed by evident relief, and restoration to a degree of bodily and mental vigor which I bad not felt for six months before, and bad almost despaired of regaining. I therefore thank God and my friend for directing me to the use of them. J. NEWTON .BROWN. PRIIADELPHId, June 23,1861. BEWARE OF 00IINTERF.E11%. See that the signature of "C. M.

He wil meet the Claaa one hour a day, four days In the week, from the first of November to the find aridity. No text-books will be used; but, in connexion with the discussion of topics references will lie made to the best authors, for the benefit GI those members of the clans who-have leisure for reading. The course will be conducted in such a manner, that those who can command onetotirdaily, can secure all its advan tages. Dr. A. will endeavor, by questionings end oral die• coseione, to lead his pupils to perceive trash. for themselves. An experience of more than a qugmer of a century spent in teaching, has convinced him that be can beet benefit hie pu pae by placing them face to face with truth, without the agency of books. Words cannot, then, be easily mistaken for things. Specia:l attention will be given to the expression of thought by word and pen. It is 'trammed that the members of the proposed claw bate acquired, from the study or books, such a degree of Mental discipline and such a knowledge of facts as will ren der them prepared for. the higher grade of instruction malted to the most advanced class in college. The following eubjects will receive attention: 1. INTELLECTUAL PHILCEOPHT. 2. Moses PunosoPEr 8. PHI2MPLEB OP RHETORIC AND Cscruccors AND BINGLIL 4. immix.

On these topics, the pupas will be led, as far la may be, perceive truth for themselves. At the close of each exercise, Dr. A. will remain to arid. clue an essay prepared by a member of the class.

Dr. Alden is about to un• dertake the instruction, in this city, of a class of young la. din in' certain branches belonging' to the moat advanced stage of education, and Involving piincipice by which Nees tions relating to the Most important 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 elootness of his attainments, hie clearness and facility of -- communication. and his kindly manners, are qualifications of a high order: but be adds to these one of inestimable value: that of taking a profound interest hi the task. of instruction, and placing his ambition inthe skilful and successful inculcation or knowl edge. The opportunity of being taught by inch a man--ao well endowed, so experienced, and so distinguished in his vocation—is not often presented to young ladies an here, and reannot doubt that many will make haste to take ad- vantage of it. It will be a favoratde symptom:Lot the state of inielligence and the love of useful knowledge in this commu nity, if this Ole . a should be immediately filled up. • - WM. C. DRYAx-T. Frela Char.

The plan is an excellent one, and, carried oat under the personal imperviXion of Dr. Alden, one of the most philosophic dad distingniehed educate= in this country, cannot fail of prating highly beneficial to those who may enjoy the advantages of his instruction. HORACE 'WEBSTER. Prom • Reo. aim:emir D.D., Senior Editor of the Ifeco-York' Obserier. 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. He comae friim the presidency of Jefferson College, where he has been eminently eucceesfal in. all. relations, be ing compelled by the health of the family to change his resi dence. In his professorship at Williams, and his presidency at Jefferson, he aoluired a wide and well-earned reputation as a teacher, combining with thorough and varied scholar ship, a peculiarly facile, genial and pleasing method of im parting knowledge, making the mysteries of science easily intelligible to the young, and rendering the abstruse studies .of the higher departments of learning a pleasant pursuit. The plan that he now proposes, will not fail to be appre ciated by parents who desire to give their daughters the ad v‘auices of the highest finish In intellectual culture, under 'u Cumetances peculiarly favorable to their improvement and enjoyment. - S.
