ToucH Nor. The writings and sayings
of Dr. johnson are replete with good sense
and sound morality, and it is not without
propriety that he has been termed the
"great English Moralst. THE follow
ing anecdote in relation to this celebrated
man, taken from one Of the late Biogra-
phies of Hannah More, is now going the
rounds ofthe papers :" Dining one day
with DR.. johnson, whose spirits the com
pany were anxious to revive, Miss Han
nah More urged him TO take l,ttie wine
His reply was" | can't take a lille,
child, therefore never touch it.. Absti-
nencc is as easy 10 me as temperance would
be difficult"

FAMILY GOVERNMENT.
Keep yoMrBoys IN Tie house evenings.


This is duty which many parents seem
almost to overlook. Iftbey can get rid Of
the noise Of their boys, and be left to pur-
sue their avocations in peace, they do not
stop to inquire where the children are, or
easy, as they nre only in the next street
playing with oiaer boys. But o how Of
ten is it, thatih this way is laid the foun-
dation of vices which mar the future char
acter, which III their progress destroy both
body and soul. Here away from parent
alrestraint, often commences the first oath.
once asked boy who was cOnversant
in these scouts, but who had not gone so
far IN evil as some OF his companions,
whether there was much s,oearing among
the boys in the streetsl He replied,
" Some" asked further, is there the
most swearing in the day time, or in the
evening Without hesitation he an
swered, {" Inthe evening"" This was as
| had suspected. l asked him why 1t was
50 He replied, he did not know. /
presume it was subject on which he had
not reflected, and only spoke the fact as it
was recalled to his mind by my question.
But could not help thinking that the
darkness of evening, the greater number
which collect together, and the feeling
that they are then more secure from the
observation ol others, Is the cause and
that these evrn,pg gatherings are particu-
lar v uniavorabfe to the morals Of our
youth.
How can parents who have the least
regard to the morals of their children, suf-
fer them to be exposed to such baneiu in
fuences Better would it be for their
own families, and for tho community at
large, if they would devote their evenings
to their children, though other things
should be neglected. We have spoken OF
the vice OF swearing only but this stands
not alone. The evil practice of smoking
tobacco, is sanoiher thing extensively learn
ed by boys thus congregated together in
the street evenings. This is a practice,
which in time usually leads TO intemper-
ance. Cpll watsr has vapid and disa-
greeable t,ssse t. those who become estab-
Iished in csgar-smoking land something i.
sought asss to satisfy this corrupt taste
He that would spare, himself the pain o
beholding his son, when full grown, the
victim of intemperance and profaneness
would do well to plsce an early restraint
on his acquiring love Of tobacco, and a
frequent sn,nglirg with siuful companions
in the street evenings. o that parental
obligation may be more deeply felt, and
that one parent may help and not hinder
another in the great work.

TOUCHING CIRCUMsTANoE.-We have
rarely read an incident more thrilling to
the feelings of parent, than the follow
ing, related in the hhica Journal -
On the afternoon of last Sabbath, an
accident occurred to an only son of MIR.
A. g. Marsh, merchant of Groton, Tomp-
kins county, which, for its fortunate re-
suit, is almost without a parallel. The
circumstances were as follows - Mr..
Marsh, while passing from his house to
his barn. distance ol eight or ten rods,
noticed his little son, abouttwenty months
old, near the well ut play but On return
ing and not seeing the chld, he supposed
he had gone in the house. On making
inquiry, he found the child had not been
IN the house for some time, aud the pain
lul suspicion occurred to him that the
child might have fallen intc the we'll He
fastened in search, with feelings that none
but parent can even feebly appreciate.
lie soon discovered the dreadful certainty
The child had stepped upon the end Of a
loose board, and was precipitaled to the
bottom OF the well, "A distance oithirty nine
icct there being Lat about three feet Of
water IN The well at the time, it could have
relieved the force Of the fall but in a small
degree. MIR. Marsh, with presence OF
mind which too often forsakss us in the
moment of danger, prepared instantly to
descend /; but here he was interrupted by
the boards over the mouth of the well he
ing so firmly fastened as to resist the Ut
most force Of his hands to remove them.
The object was, after some minutes delay,
effected by prylng up and splitting off a
piece at time, $50 firmly were they
naiIed,) until an opening was made sutiic-
lent to admit him to pass, when he hurried
down in search Of the body Of his son,
supposing that the fall must have produced d
instant death. lie soon discovered the
child by its clothing, near the top of the
water. He seized it, and Immediately
commenced, with an aching heart, to as
cend with it in his arms aud though in a
debilitated state of health from frequ ent
attacks of asthma, had accomplished near
ly half The distance, when he perceived
the feeble gasp Of his child. AT this rao-
ment, he found himself beginning to fail,
aud had nearly lost his hold. He called
to those at the top Of the well, aud inform
ed them that his child was not dead, and
requested help, when three of his neigh
bors descended, and passing the child from
one to the other, soon restored the still
apparently lifeless body to its ANXIOUS
mother. Medical aid was Immediately
called, which, together with the assiduous
care of its anxious parents, soon restored
the little sufferer to state of conscious
ness. The next morning no traces could
be discovered in the child Of an accident
having occurred, other than two or three
small bruises on the head.

WEARING FLANNELs. As the genial
sunshine of sprIng advances, those accus-
toned TO wearing flannel under garments,
are too much disposed to lay them sudden
ly aside. This is an error of great mag
nitude. Keep them on till the east wind
is no longer elaborated till the flowers
are blooming in the fields, and uniform
atmospheric temperature established. A
multitude annually, in the very meridian
OF life, are hurried to an early grave, in
consequence Of not understanding or by
ncglecting, this simple though important
advice. Medical Journal.

THE TRUE SUBLIME.

A gentleman was once engaged in 9
controversy with clergyman, and decla.
red that no writer, ancient or modern
rivalled Homer in the subimity of his
conceptions. To prove this assertion, he
cited the following passage
"Jove frowns, and darkness more than
half the skies" There, cried he, what
passage will you find equal to this a
ir0wn from the brow of my heather Om-
Impotence, overshadowed half the skies
with darkness.
The clergyman did not ruminate long
for an answer. He opposed by the fol-
lowing quotation of the Goth chapter oI
Revelations, verse 18th
"And | saw great white throne. and
Him that sat on il, from whose face g.,
earth and heavens fled away, aud there
was found no place for them" Your
tabled God, he remarked, could only put
half the heavens in a ierment by the dis
tortion Of vissge. At the bare appear

trembles, and seeks annihilalion for shell
