come of you when the money was all
gone o. The little fellow did not exactly
understand the philosophy Of such con.
illusions, but as he grows older he viii
view the matter In a proper light. After
all said, much depends on the good cohn-
sci Of mothers in laying the foundation for
sound superstructure in the minds Of
their sons. Let a widow, left only in
moderate circumstances, have four inielli.
gent, well educated boys, who have hon.
orally and successfully served out their
times in some mechanical business, and
see how much more comfortable are her
prospects in old age, than if she had four
boys depending on precarious profession
al pursuits for a living.
This reasoning partially applies to
daughters, who are by far less trouble
some and difficult to manage than sons.
Il is Incredible how many avenues 10 com.
fort and employment are opened to girls,
if they are industriousIy disposed. There
are three young ladies, daughters of are
spectacle but moderately circumstance
family, remarkable for neatness Of dress.
and a reserved manner, attr buted by ma
ny TO pride. Calling in at rather an unu-
sual visiting hour, found the mother and
daughters employed in making muslin
shirts, for which they received only a shil-
ling piece, and they frankly informed
me that they clothed themselves entirely
by their needle. The cause of their pride
was thus explained--it was the pride of
conscious independence.

BY PATRICK HENRY.


My DEAR DAUGHTER You have just
entered into that state which is repiete
with happiness or misery. The issue de-
Ponds upon that prudent, amiable, uni
form conduct, which wisdom and virtue so
strongly recommend, on the one hand, or
on that imprudence which want of re-
Fiction or passion may prompt on the
other.
You are allied to man of honor, OF
talents, and Of an open, generous DISPOSE
ton. You have, therefore, in your pow
or, all the essential ingredients Of domes-
tic happiness +: 1t cannot be married, if you
now reflect upon that system Of conduct
whichyou ought invariably to pursue-if
you now see clearly, the path from which
YOU will resolve never to deviate. Our
conduct IS often the result of whim or
caprice, often such as will give us many a
pang, unless we see, beforehand, what is
always the most praiseworthy, and the
most essential to happiness.
The first maxim which you should i'm
press deeply upon your mind, is, never to
attempt to control your husband by your
opposition, by dlsplcasure, or any other
mark Of anger. A man of sense, o.
prudence, of warm feelings, cannot, and
will not, bear an opposition Of any kind.

A NEwSPAPER.-The newspaper is the
chronicle of civilization--she common re-
serroir into which every stream pours its
living waters, and at which every man may
come and drink. II is the newspaper that
gives to liberty its practical life, its con-
slant observation, its perpetual vigilance
its unrelaxing activity. Tue newspaper
informs Legislation of pubic opinion, and it
informs the people Of the acts Of Legislation.
And this is not all. The newspaper Teens
with the most practical morality in its
reports of crimes and pit nishments, you
find daily warning against temptation /;
not a case in police court, not single
trial Of wretched outcast or a trembling
felon. that does not preach TO US the awful
lesson how imprudence leads 10 error,
how error conducts to guilt, how guilt
reaps its bitter fruit of anguish and degra-
dation. The newspaper is the familiar
bond that binds together man and man
no matter what may be the distance Of
climate or race. The newspaper is a law
book for The indolent, a sermon for the
thought;ess, library for the poor. Ii
may stimulate tie most Indifferent, it may
instruct the most profound. BulDer.

THE BOWL.


BY LIEUT.. G. w. PATTEN, o. 8. ARMY.
Oh! shun the bowl 1.-THE draught beware
Whose smile but mocks the lips Of man;
When foaming high with waters rare
OH never touch the goblet then.
With friends we love, tho sweerto sip
The nectar'd juice at close Of day,
Yet trust We not the syren lip
That wins to cheat, and lures to stay.
Oh shun the bowl, aud thou shalt know
A deeper spell than swins in wine;
Though bright its hours of sunset glow,
Their crimson clouds 40 briefly shine.
A few short days in madness past,
And thou wilt sink unknown to years
Without hope beyond the blast,
Which means above thy grave Of tears.
Oh leave the bowl--f thou art wise
Toshun the path Of guilty fame
The burning road where anguish lies,
And periured honor weeps for shame.
In after years some cheering ray
From Virtues smile viii Ger thee spread,
And thou wilt bless the better way
Thy erring steps were loth to tread.
Oh shun the bowl-as thou would'st leave
The poisoned spot where reptiles tread,
Lest widow'd hearts for thee should grieye--
For thee, untimely tears be shed,
Yea thine may be the fearful lot
Toprove, ere Time hath dimm'd thy brow,
A sire-Gnd get the auitne$S mol
Of them who weep his broken vow.
Hast thou bride whose every sigh
Deep trembes with the Joy it gives
Hast thou child whose meek mild eye
Lines IN the light its Fa.her IireS 2
Then, shun the boWI-the draught beware,
Whose smile but mocRs the lips of men;
When foaming high with waters rare,
Oh [! never touch the goblet then.
The following pretty song is published TO
the benefit of all the pretty girls IN creation
to be played or sung just as the whim may urge
them, or convenience permit. We hope the
sentiment embodied in the lines will be applau
,ded and appreciated as it Picay
une.
AIR" There's nae luck about the house"
Hurrah hurrah for laughing love,
"a fig" for those who sigh
Hurrah hurrah for the bounding heart,
And the bright and sparkling eye!
There's care enough to darken still
Lies path where'er we roam;
Though melancholy brood not DER
The festive board at home,
Hrrah hurraL!
The stately form, the naughty brow,
And the cold majestic air,
May awe the slaves who worship them
The pomp they cannot share.
But the smile that parts the rosy lips,
And the look of artless glee,
That speaks the warm and cheerful heart,
., that's the love for me!
Ilurrah hurrah for laughing love,
"a fig for those who sigh;
Hurrah hurrah for the bounding heart
And the bright and sparkling eye!
