cd the plan of introducing tie reading of Newspapers among his larger schol- I,Ts5 aid with viii beneficial effect Lt Is pleasing, he observes, 10 sec how fast and with what interest they acquire in-
 formation in this way. Care is taken
 to exclude party and sectarian Princl- pies; and no paper introduced but such as is provided by the parents. We should like 10 hear of this plan being more generally adopted. Whilst chil- dren are learning to read, they can also
 be learning something abont the world so that when they enter upon it, they will not be altogether so ignorant ol what is going on, as when contrary course IS pursued.

SELECTED POETRY.
OUR COMMON MOTHER.

When art thou fairest. Naturcl When her hood
Pale Twilight dOns, and Ger the quiet vale
Fares forth, to hear within the silent wood
The plaintive story of the nightingale;
And, in the dim and drowsy light of eve,
The spider loves it subtle snare to weavs.
Or art thou fairest in the morning hour,
Then daylight dances on the daisied lea;
And birds sing forth their mathis from the bower,
And blossom banners float from every tree:
When sunshine sparkles from the stream. and all
The jocound earth seems one bright iestal halls
Nay, thou art ever fair! in every mood,
Through every season, and at every hour!
IT'S but the heart where sinful thoughts intrude.
That doubts thy beauty, and rejects thy power:
Why-why should evil U,ingle with our blood,
Since only they are happy who arc goOd'
Thine is glorious volume. Nature! each
Line, Ieaf, aud page are filled with living lore:
Wisdom, more pure than sage could ever teach,
Aud all philosophy divinest store;
Rich lessons rise wheeler thy tracks are trod-
The book of Nature is the book Of God.

their reason and humanity Take the following
as sample:
"Mr. David Bal!ou, Jagged eighty five years.
was On journey from Ohio to Cumberland, T.
|. his native town. From New York, where he
tarried one night, he took passage in steam boat
Tor New Haven. After leaving the boat, he
took seat IN stage for Providence. During
this ride. he was taken sick. The stage passengers
were alarmed, and attempts were made to leave
him at some house. but nobody would receive
hun, for fear of the Cholera. In this critical 81
tuation he was denied seat inside the stage
was taken out and dashed on the top, and in this
way was brought into Providence. But the old
mans cup of calamity and suffering was not yet

shelter, aud the next morning he was found on
the market house steps. At length he prevailed
ON a person, for the sum OF five dollars, to carry
him to his brothers., IN Cumberland. BY this
time he had become SO exhausted that he was IN
able to sit up, and was supported by the driver.
His brothers family were no less alarmed than
his former companions. He was refused admit
lance into the house, but was conveyed to the
barn to be nursed, while messenger was de-
spatched to Woonsocket Falls for physician
who had Just returned from New York. Before
he arrived, Mr. b. was dead"

sent home with hickory rod. We moved not a
step from the place, for the squirrels were so nu.
merous that it was unnecessary to 60 after them.
Boon pointed to one Of these animals which had
observed US, and was crouched on branch
about SO PAGES distant, and bid me mark we'll
where the ball should hit. He raised his piece
gradually until the head THAT being the name
given by the Kentuckians to the sight of the
barrel was brought to line with the spot which he
intended to hit. The whip.like report resound-
ed through the woods and along the hills in re-
peated echoes. Judge my surprise when per-
ceived that the ball had hit the piece of the bark
Immediately beneath the squirrel, and shivered
it into splinters, the conclusion produced by
which had killed the animal and sent it whirl-
Ing through the air, as if it bad been blown up
by the explosion of powder magazine. Boon
kent up his nring, and before many hours bad
eIarsed. we had procured as many squirrels as
we wished; for you must kno~, kind reader,
that to load rifle requires only moment, and
that If it is wiped once each shot, 1t will do dnty
for hours. Since that interview with our vete-
ran Boon, have seen many other individuals
perform the feat.
