YOUTH AND SUMNER.

From Fishers DraVing-room Scrap Book.
Summers full Of golden things!
outh 1t weareth angels wings!
Youth and love go forth together,
In the green-leaved summer weather,
Filled with gladness
Summer, rich in Joy it is,
Like poets dream Of bliss;
Like unto some heavenly cline,
For the earth in summer time
Doth not wear i shade of sadness.
Radiant youth, thou art ever new
Times the light, the roses hue;
Flowers perfume, and winds that stir,
Like stringed dulcimer,
All the forest!
Joyous youth thou art fresh and fair;
Wild as widest bird of air!
Thou, amidst thy ringing laughter,
l.ooks't not forward, looks't not after,
knowing well that JOY is surest!
Brighter than tho brightest flowers;
Dancing down the golden hours
Thus it is in every land,
Youth and love 90 hand in hand,
Linked forever
outh! thou never dost decay;
Summer! thou dost not grow grey!
We may sleep with death and time,
But sweet youth and summer prime,
From the green earth shall not sever

SoMETHING WORTHY OF NoTIcE.-When
was In Berlin went into public prison, and
visited every part of the establishment. At
last l was introduced into very large hall,
which was full of children with their books
and teachers and having the appearance of a
Prussian schoolroom. ''What!" said |, sis
1t possible that all these children are impris-
oned for crime ?'' 80 no, said my compan-
ion, smiling at my simplicity, shut if parent
is imprisoned for crime, and on that account
his children are left destitute of the means of
education and are liable to grow up in igno-
rance and crime the government places them
here, and maintains and educatcs them for
useful employment" This was new idea
TO me. know not that it has ever been sug-
gested in the United States but surely it is
the duty of the Government, as we'll as its
high interest, when 4 man is paying the pen
alties of his crime in public prison, to sec
that his unotIending children are not left TO
suffer and inherit their fathers vices. Surely
1t would be better for the child and cheaper
for the State. Let it not be supposed that a
man will go to prison for the sake Of having
his children taken care Of, for those who 90 to
prison usually have little regard for their
children; if they did, discipline like the Ber-
lin prison would soon sicken them of such a
bargain.-Protessor .Siotc's Report.

PROFANITY is nothing in our esti-
nation SO degrading to the character of a
man as the habitual use Of profane oaths.-It
lessons his dignity in the eyes of all who
may come in contact with him, and is indie
alive of a coarse and vulgar mind. ssTo
swear is neither brave, polite, nor wise,'' is a
true adage, and should be borne in mind by
such as are addicted to profanity. 1t is heart
rcnding to the virtuous and moral part of our
community to hear the blasphemous express
slons that emanate from the mouths of men
who wear the exterior of gentlemen, but
more whitening it is to hear the llorrid oaths
that spring from the tongues of many of the
lads who perambulate the streets. There is
want of care somewhere, and parents and
guardians she6ld be admonished to look well
to the morals oftheir children and apprentices.
Ii mild reproof will have no effect in check
ing the formation of the evil habit, let it be
done by austerity, but at any rate put stop
TO 1t by some efficient means. Let not our
ears be assailed and insulted, and our feelings
shocked, by the oaths of those who have not
yet arrived to the age of puberty.
And If these views be correct as to this de-
grading practice, with the youth of our
country, how deeply is it to be deplored to
hear profane language from the heads of those
whose grey hairs invite respect and venera-
ton but who yet seem not to realize that they
are blossoming for eternity. Most Of all it is
source of grief that heads of families offend

Dr. Jayne.-Dear Sir.-I feel that | can
nardly say enough to you in favor of the Hair
o 9' prepared by you. My hair had been
railing oil about two years, and had become
very thin, threatening speedy badness, when
L commenced using this remedy. In about
one week 1t ceased to fall of.
L have used 1t now about three months. and
nave as full and thick head of hair as | can
possibly desire. have recommended its nse
10 number of my friends, who all speak
well OF 1t. If faithfully employed, | have
no doubt Of its general success. may add
that before using the Tonic, had tried al
most all the various articles employed for the
hair, such as the Macassar Oil, all the differ
ent preparations of Bears Oil, Vepetable
Hair Oil, &c. &c. without experiencing much.
If any benefit.
