THE FLIGHT or TIME.
Fainily flow, thou falling river,
Like dream that dies away;
Down the ocean gliding ever,
Keep thy calm, unruf11ed way!
Time with such silent motion
Floats along on wings Of air,
To Eternity's dark ocean,
Burying all its treasures there.
Roses bloom, and then they wither;
Cheeks are bright, then fade and die;
Shades Of life are waited hither,
Then, like visions. hurry by;
Quick as clouds at evening driven
Ger the many colorcd west;
Years are hurryng us on 20 h9asen,
Home Of happiness and rest.

In reading, the fundamental error a.
mong US consists in endeavoring to do TOO
much at once. No sooner is a child set
TO reading the simplest sentences than he
is required not only to pronounce each
letter, word and syllable correctly. but he
is also expected to attend to proper loud
ness of voice, dis,inctness, emphasis and
cadence, aud 10 observe the pauses and in
f1ictions.
Now this is about as unreasonable as
that of requiring the beginner in writing
to attend. at the very outset, to position Of
the body, the paper and the hand; to the
cut, slope and size of letters and 10 ali
those minu,ia Of art which belong 10
more advanced PROGRESSES. And the reason
is the same in both cases-it is found in
the violation Of we'll known and highly
important principle, especially in early in
struction-' Do one thing at ,ime."
