"Speak to child-any child-in a
calm, positive, clear voice. and he will be
sure to obey you, if you speak once, and
only once. Mrs. Sigourney.
This is true, and if it were observed in
family government there would be few dis.
obedent children. Every parent has one
particular tone, orc particular voice,
which every child, il j. be not entirely
spoiled, will obey. Let any child cry for
the moon TO any parent, he will be refused
always with that voice. What is the con.
sequence? The child stops crying. A
child cries for razor, a looking glass, or
a teapot, full of boiling water. He will
generally be refused in such u voice
with such preemptory look, that he will
not venture to ask again. Il is pity pa.

Let them refuse any thing precisely as they
do refuse what is impossble-as they do
refuse the moon, the mirror and the wa

FESTIVAL OF LANGUAGES.

On the 18th of January last, celebra-
ton of this kind was held at the College OF
the Propaganda at Rome, at which seve.
raj of our countrymen distinguished Them
selves, as will be seen by the following
account of il extracted from Galignani's
| Messenger.
Four cardinals, one of which was the
celebrated lingulst Cardinal Mezzofanti,
were present at the ceremony, as was al
SO Don Miguel. The festival opened by
prologue in Latin, spoken by an lllyrlna.
A young man of New York then recited
poem in Hebrew, and was followed by
two Chaldeans, who kept up dialogue in
the same language. A native of the Lii
banus delivered some verses in Syriac,
and young man from Bethlehem spoke
in the ancient Samaritan dialect. Tive
Chaldeans afterwards read an eclogue in
their sacred language, and terminated IT
by kind Of chant. A Persian, pro.
nounced discourse in Chaldee, and a ma.
tive of Washington one in Italian. Some
compositions in Turkish, Armenian dead
aud living dialecis,) and Persian, were
next read and two Indians from Pegu,
the youngest of whom was only IL years
old, spoke dialogue in the Birman Ian
guaSe, and were much applauded for their
animated delivery. Some Armenlans read
u variety Of elegies in Latin, and some
verses written both in the ancient and
modern Greek while Curd spoke some
verses in his own dialects, and a native OF
Nova Scotia read an idyl in Celtic. Sew
eral poems in Albanian, Georgian, lily
rian, Bulgarian, Polish, German, Dutch,
English, and French were then read. A
negro from Godscand made speech in
the Abyssinian vulgar tongue, another in
Ethiopian, and two young Egyptians in
Coptc. An inhabitant Of California sung
chant in his own language, accompany
ing it with castagnettes and then some
Chinese spoke, one in the dialect of Ho-
nan, another in that Of Canton. and two
others in that Of Scian. These were
dressed in their national costume, and
sung one Of their native songs, which was
judged to be exceedingly harmonious. A
great number Of distinguished visiters, who
were present, loaded the young pupils Of
the College with warm and unanimous
congratulations"

RECIPE FOR THE LADIEs.-Ladies who
cultivate flowers in their parors will
gratefully receive the following recipe for
destroying very troublesome reptile /:
Worms in pots may be easily destroyed
simply by watering the soil with lime wa.
ter, which may be made by putting a
piece Of lime weighing about two pounds,
into pail of water when the whole is
Stacked and well stirred up, it should be
allowed to settle. The clear water may
then be turned off, and the soil in the pois
should be literally watered with it. The
worms will soon leave the premises by
crawling upon the surface, when they may
be taken off and destroyed. If any re.
main, another watering may be applied.
We have never found any difficulty in
destroying them by this method.

II should be remarked here, That the
day was very warm and the course in the
most capital order. Ii is TO be re.meas-
ured tomorrow morning, and will ap.
prize you of the result. No doubt il is
something over mile, measuring three
feet from the inner railing. regret to
add that upon taking him to his stable Il
was discovered that Grey Medoc had par
TALLY given way in both iorelegs--that is,
that the smaller tendons Of both legs were
sprung, so that he never will again appear
upon the turf. But he has done enough;
his performance to-day is GROWING glo-
ry to career Of unusual brillancy. l
close with the remark with which COM
menced, that have seen to-day The best
race ecer run IN America.

?. s. Since the above crude report wos
penned, ! am pleased to hear that the ia.
juries sustained by the gallant Grey, are
less serious than was anticipated. His
legs are still much infamed, and it is al
together probable he will never again APP
pear on the Turf. Yet every friend Of
the turf and indeed every admirer Of the
Blood Horse, will be gratified TO hear
that, in ar unhopeI for degree, Rich
ards himself again" The remarkable
time made by Grey Medoc, having sug-
gested doubts as to the length Of the
course, we are happy to state that il was
measured on the morning following the
race, Yesterday and found to be oUer a
mile in lsagth--as the following certificate
will show:
Length Of The Louisiana Course.-The
undersigned, having been appointed a
Committee by the President Of the Club,
at the request OF James S. Garrison, Esq.
the proprietor, this morning proceeded TO
measure the louisiana Course, under the
personal direction Of Louis Bringier, Esq.
The Surveyor General of the State OF Lou
isiana, and certify that upon measuring
the two straight parallel sides of the
course three feet from tho posts, and tho
two selni-circles four feet from the posts,
they find il to be two feet three inches
and half over full mile in length.
