HEALTH OF CHILDREN.

Early rising, is habit of high importance to fix
IN children and i'm forming it, there is far greater
facility than in other There is natural pro-
pensity in children, generally, to early rising, which
needs only to be gratifed and encouraged. They
usually retire to bed hours before their parents
and at daylight, at least sunrise, are generally
awake, aud anxious to rise. Many of them are
actually bred up with difficulty to the habit of taking
morning maps which, when once formed. general
ly prevail through life. Let the father deny him
self so far to retire early and become an early
riser also. His health enjoyments, and usefulness
he may depend upon it, will be perceptbly benefit
ted. Long lived persons have been found, after an
extensive inquiry, to resemble each other only in
this important practice. And this may be connec-
ted with another preventive Of disease-actye en-
poyment. The morning is the season for activty
the frame is nvigoratcd by repose is prepared for
exerlion, and motion gives pleasure. The pure at
nosphere, much bracing than at other
hours, much sweeter and exhilcrating than the
air of confined chamber, has been prepared 10 be
breathed and like all of natures medicines, it is
rising and early exercise, might more properly be
called food than medicine, they are designed for
daily use and to protect from disease rather than
TO remove it. Every thing except mere sloth, invites
us, nay, requires of us, to train up children to
use them. The morning is the most favorable sea-
son for exercising the frame, well for making
useful impressions in tie mind and heart, of impor
tant facts, moral principles, religious feelings
and whoever tries to conduct the education of his
child independently of this practice will lose some
of the most favorable opportunities.

A MAN CARRIED OFF BY ABEAR.

The grisly bear is an animal far formidable
than the common black bear of America. 1t is about
the size of its polar namesake, and much swfter and
more active, though its great weight hnders 1t from
climbing trees Ofall beasts of prey, 1t perhaps the
only one that fears neither fire nor the face of man.

CIRCUMsTANcIAL EVIDENCE.

In the year 1886, Mr Hayes, a gentleman of for
tune, travelling, stopped at inn in Oxfordshre,
England, kept by one Jonathan Bradford. He there
met with two gentlemn with whom he suppcd and
in conversation unguardedly mentioned that he had
then with him considerable sum of fmoney.--Hav-
ing retired to rest the two gentlemen, who slept in
double bedded, room, were awakened by deep groans
in the adjoining chamber. They instantly arose
and proceeded silently the room whence the grOan
were heard. The door was half open, and en-
tering they perceived person weltering his blood
in the bed and standing over him with dark
lantern i'll one hand and knife in the other They
soon discovered that the gentleman murdered was
one with whom they had supped, and that the man
who was standing over him was their host. They
instantly seized him, disarmed him of the knife and
charged him with being the murderer. He positive
y denied the crime, aud asserted that he there
with the same intention themselves; for that hear
ing noise, which was succeeded by groans, he got
up, struck light and armed himself with knife I'M

room before them.
These assertion were of no avail he was kept in
close custody until the morning, when he taker
before neighboring justice of the peace, to whom
the evidence appeared so decisive, that OIL writing
his mittimus, he hesitated not to say Mr. Brad
ford, either you or myself committed this murder"
At the ensuing assizes at Oxford, Bradford was
tried convicted; and shortly after executed, still
however declaring that he was not guilty of the
murder. This afterwards proved to be true the
murder actually committed by Mr.. Hayes

rifled his pockets and escaped to his own room
which was scarcely two seconds before Bradford 8

edge to a remorse of conscience Of the footman on
his death bed, eighteen months aficr the murder

Some love the sun, and some the Uoon
And some the deep, deep sea-
Some build their skies in others eyes.
And some will Stoics be:
Some two legg'd donkeys may be seen
Westward Of Temple-bar,
With high-heerd boots, and low-crowned hats,
Bush'd whiskers, and cigar.
Some love to range in search of change;
Some stay at home and die;
Some love to smile life's away,
While others love to cry:
Some are won, some sold, some worship gold;
Some rise while others fall;
Many have hearts composed of s,oue.
And some no heart at all.
Oh +! could find in life IS dark book
One clear unbo,ted page

VIRGINIA LEGISLATURES.

Ii will be seen, by our extracts from the Wing,
that Mr.. Leigh has ben reelected Senator, by n
majority of A votes-and that Peter V. Daniel has
been subjected to his.favorlte doctrine, of " rotation
in Office by n still smaller majority. The Rich
mond Enquirer is of course in nigh ~dudgeon, and
threatens the Wing menbers of the Legislature
with the vengeance of their constituents ut the
April elections. 1t did precisely the same thing
last winter bu, the result of the spring elections of
1884 proved it to be a false prophet, as it will do in
1885. if the Wings will cull out their strong men,
and do not divide among themselves. We are
willing TO leave it TO that issue.
