The voice of freedom. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1839-1848, 1839-04-20

Let all the members of your family be regular
~ washed and combed before breakfast never
permit them to treat you with so much disrespect
as to appear at your table in sloveny condition.
1t should ever be remembered that the highest re-
spect which a child can pay is due its parents
This respect may be insured by forming correct
habits in youth,
Resist in tme--all medicine is but play
When the disease is strengthened by delay
Never overload the plates OR stomachs of your
children give them sufficient and suitable food
Recollect milk is for babes," and "strong meat
for men,"
Watch against the practice of leaving portions
of food on the plates or throwing them about,
which begets habit of wastefulness highly per-
nicious. Waste not, want not" is good PROV
erb, and should be kept in mind.
Be yourself the Judge, both of the quality and
quantity of food your children should eat There
are many things which may appear to the eye Of
a child, pleasant and good for food" which, new
ertheless contain the seed of disease and DEATH
Entirely refuse them sweet and rich cake.
Let neatness and order regulate all your own
movements, and then you can insist, with preprie-
ty, that your children have proper place for ev-
cry thing, and that every thing kept in its place.
Read to your children as often as practicable, IA
miliar stories, and explain and illustrate what you
read. This P an will both amuse and improve
them.
Encourage the natural curiosity of your chill
dren This will, at very early age, develope
the peculiar traits of their character.
Always take care to blend instruction with
amusement without instruction.
Be methodical in all your domestic arrange
ments This adds most essentially to the COM
forts of a family.
Let the hours devoted in family devotion be held
sacred suffer no visiter Or company to put them
aside.
Never allow your authority, as parent, to be
disputed be firm, dgnifed, mild and composed.
Be careful to decide justly between your chill
dren, when disputes and difficulties occur. Re-
member the many colored coat of Joseph.
Never compel your children to commit portions
of Scripture to memory punishment This
practice has ruined many youth.
Always impress the minds of your children
with this truth that allowing them to learn is a
favor
Never treat as matter OF indifference dispo-
sition to practice cunning or equivocation, which
S the first Development of disposition that if
will form most degraded character.
Never threaten without furnishing ; never
promise without performing.

POE It R Y

The following lines written by the late MARCIA
RET MILLER DAVIDSON, when she was only twelve
years
Invocation to Spring.
Bend down from thy chariot, oh beautiful Spring;
Unfold like standard, thy radient wing,
And beauty and joy in thy rosy path bring!
We long for thy coming sweet goddess of love!
We watch for thy smile in the pure sky above!
And sigh for the hour when the wood birds shall sing
Aud nature shall welcome thee, beautiful spring near
How the lone heart will bound when thy presence draws
AS if borne from this world, to lovelier sphere
How the fond soul to meet thee, i'll rapture shall rise,
When thy first blush has tinted the earth and the skies
Oh! send thy soft breath on the icy-bound stream:
Twill vanjsh-'twill melt like the forms in dream
Released from the chain, like a child in its glee,
Twill flow on, unbounded, unfettered, and free!
Twill leap on in joy, like bird on the wing
And hail thy sweet music, OH beautiful spring:
But tread with thy foot on the snow covered plain
And verdurc and beauty shall smile in thy train!
But whisper one word with thy seraph-like voice,
And nature and earth shall rejoice! shall rejoce
Oh spring!-lovey goddess! what form compare,
With thine SO respendent, so glowing, so fair?
What sunbeam bright as thine own smiling eye.
From whose glance the dark spirit of winter doth fly,
garland of roses is twined round thy brow
Thy cheek with the pale blush of evening doth glow:
mantle of green over thy soft form is spread,
And the light wing'd zephyrs play round thy head
Oh! could but mount on the eagles dark wing,
And rest ever beside thee Spring! beautiful Spring!
While the thought of thy beauty inspireth my brain,
shrink from the terror of cold Winter reign
Methnks behold thee-I hear thy soft voice
And in fullness of heart I rejoice! rejoice!
But the cold wind is moaning, the drcar doth fall,
And nought but the shrieking blast echoes my call.
Oh! heed the fral offering infant bring!
Oh! grant my petition, Spring! beautiful Spring!

Whitefield, a Hundred Years ago.

A friend has furnished us the following extracts
from journal of the celebrated Rev George
Whitefield, which appears to have been written in
1739.-Pastors Journal.
London, Jan. 3. Staid at home, to receive
those who wanted to consult me. Blessed be God
from seven in the morning till three in the after
moon, people came, some telling me what God
had done for their souls and others crying OUT
What shall we do to be saved 2" Preferred sew
eral till Thursday. How does God work by un.
worthy hands His mercies melt me down.

Major General Scott.

Int recent number of the Emancipator, Mr..
Birney thus speaks of this veteran soldier.
In my last, you will remember told you, that
in coming to Boston fell in with General Scott,
who was on his way to Maine,-that he had Civ
en- me pleasant history of the emancipation of a
large number of slaves in Virgnia-and that |
made something like promise to tell it you. Be-
fore doing so, however, let me say-judging from
this interview in connection with his public life
he is among the most interesting men, with whom
it has been my fortune, at any time, to meet. His
views are large -comprehensve--such as are found
only In statesmen of a superior order. He hears
patiently-impartaly; answeres without haste,
and, apparently, without prejudice. When, in the
course OF our conversation, saw, that he rightly
understood the influence of the religious principle
in men-that he had clear perceptions of Justice
of right, as rules of action binding as we'll on gov
ernments as on individuals, and heard from him
that, in discharging his late delicate & critical official
duties along our northern frontier, he had appealed
to his felow-ctizens through these great orincipzes
the secret of his eminent success was fully reveal
ed.
Whilst General Scott cannot be called an aboli-
ZIONIST, neither can he STAKEHOLDER. He has not
had leisure, since the anti-slavery movement at
tracted much of the public attention, to give his
mind to its examination. But should he, at any
