TOyE SONG.

Oh, haste thee. dream. on thy wings light,
Away to my true loves bower,
And bear my vows OF love 10 night,
And kiss on this dewy flower.
When she roams with thee through sunny isles
or recIines BY the limpid stream,
Let me be there to share in her smiles
Oh, be kind TO me, gentle dream.
Tell her the storm will vet be past
Which darkene our hopes 50 fair
Then point to a blissful home at last,
And days uushaded by care.
So haste thee, dream, on thy wings Of light,
Away to my true loves bower,
And bear her my vows oflove to night,
4 nd kiss on this dewY flower.

Tho following exqpisitely beautiful efTusio,
is from an old number Of Backwood,s Edin
burgh Magazine:
HOPE.
IF Hope be dead-why seek to live?
For what besides has life to give?
Love, Life, and Youth, and beauty, too.
II Hope be dead-say what are youl
Love without Hope il cannot be
There is a vessel on yon sea,
Becalmed, and sail-less as Despair,
And know-'tis hopeless Love floats there.
Life without Hope O that is not,
To live; but day by day, 10 rot,
With feelings cold and passions dead;
To wander der the world and tread
Upon its beauties; and 70 gaze,
Quite vacant, DER its dDwery maze,
Oh think it this be Life! then say
'Who lives when Hope has fled away"
Youth without Hope! And endless night,
Trees which have felt the cold Springs blight,
The lightning's flashes, and the thunder's strifs
Y Ct pine away a weary life
Which older would have sunk and died
Beneath the strokes their youth defied-
But curst with length Of Gays are left
10 rail at Youth of Hope berelt.
And Beauty, too, when hope is gone
Has lost tie ray in which II shOne;
And seen without this borrowed light,
Has lost the beam that made il bright.
Now what avail the silkcn hair,
The gentle smile, the gentle air,
The beaming eye and glance refined
Faint sembIance of the purer mind
4 A gold dust, sparkling in the sun,
Points where the richer strata run!
Alas! they now Just seem to be
Bestowed to Mock at Misery;
\ Trey speak OF days long, long gone by,
Then point to cold Reality,
And with deathhke smile they say
.sohl what arc we when Hopes away!'
Thus Love, Life, Youth, Beauty, too.
Vixen seen without HoPE' frightening hue,
, All sighs in Misery's saddest tones,
, "Why seek to live if Hope be gone!"

AN OLD PRISONER "A Client Journal
states that there is among the convicts
in the prison in that city, man who,
half century since, was pardoned, and
10 whom liberty has been offered MANY
times. He, however, is SO much accns-
toned to the life Of the prison, that he
requested as a favor to be allowed TO re
main there until the time Of his death
IIe is now about so years old. He has
lost all his relations and friends long
since, and has no desire 10 mix again in
4 world IN which he knows nobody
He IS very kindly treated in the prison.

For Farmers WIrcS ana
Daughters II have few words
for the farmers wives. HoWev-
er skilfuI. industrious and pru-
dent your husbands may be, their
success in money making de-
pends as much upon you as them
Economy and skill On your part,
in turning every thing to the best
account, are essential to profita-
bic husbandry. Perhaps there
is scope for study, experiments
and improvements in your de-
partments. All are not equally
successful in the management OF
tic dairy. Poor pastures, poor
cows, poor cellars, arc the al
legged reasons for the difference
in results These things undonbt-
edly are often the causes Of fail
ure to obtain butter in large
quantities and Of good quality.
But may not the fault lie some
times with the dairy woman? Is
her business so simple as to be
always understood? You begin
to suspect that | doubt whether
some of you perfectly mastered
the art Of butter making. 1t may
be an ungaIiant doubt. but listen
to the particulars of one case il
point, and then Judge whether
can help doubling. AS stated tc
me, the facts are these: One O.

the females. Either mothers or
daughters must resort to some
thing else by which to contribute
a share in the support of the fam
ilv. 1t is too commonly the case
that the daughters resort to some
occupation that is not sufficient
y active and Inyigorating. The
needle is taxing the bloom from
many OF their cheeks and vigor
from their frames. The evil is
augmented by that mode of dress
(E ought to use a harsher tdrm)
which obstructs the natural aud
healthy developments of lungs
and chests; also by avoiding ex-
posure to the weather; and too
effeminate reliance upon the
horse for services for which hca-
ven intended should be rendered
by their own limbs! The lamen-
table consequences will not be
confined to them, Nchildren will
inherit the feeblen1ss of their
mothers, and a sickIy race will
come after us.
Useful as the needle is, and
beautiful as are It's contributions
to our show, | appeal to mothers
to forbid its excessive, its con-
stant use by the daughters. / en-
treat them us they value the well
being Of their children, to give
daughters daily and thorough
training in the cares and labor Of
the dairy and all household af-
fairs. It were WeII-well for
them and a future race, that they
should revive he acquaintances
which their mothers had with the
milking stool, the garden, and to
some extent the ficld-for then
bl 1od would flow in fuller tides
through all their veins, they
would acquire vigor Of body and

COMMON ScHooLs OF THE STATE OF New
YORK message Of Governor
Wrght.to the Legislature Of New York,
states the number Of common schools in
the State al lO,990. from ten thousand
eight hundred and fifty Of which reports
we're received during the past year. The
whole number Of children between the
ayes Of five and sixteen years residing
in the State was 696 .5l8; and the whole
number OF children actually taught in
The district schools was 700, ls6, being
more than $4,000 beyond the preceding
wear, The whole amount Of money dis
tributed from the Treasury for the use Of
common schools for the year was S275,-
600 and the amount actually paid during
the year for the wages Of common school
teachers was S9O2, ,222 The number Of
volumes reported as being in the school
district libraries was ,O38, 1896. Ii is also
estimated that, besides the large aggre-
rate taught in the district schools there
are, including 1851 in the city Of N.
York, $4,000 children in attendance
upon private and select schools.

a Whisper 10 d WIe.-Srudy your
husbands temper and character; and DO
u your pride and pleasure to conform 10
his wishes. Check at once the first ad>
vance 10 contradiction, even Of the most
trivial nature. Beware Of the first dis
pute. Whatever might have been con-
cealed as defect from the lover, must
with greater diligence be concealed from
'he husband. The most intimate and
friendly familiarity cannot surely be
supposed TO exclude decorum. Let your
husband be dearer and Of more conse>
quence to you than any other human be-
ing; and have no hesitation in confsssing
those feelings 10 him.

A Dr0uer log. The editor Of the
New York Sun, noticing a specimen Of
the cattle or drover dog, says that this
animal, with the assistance OF one man
on horseback, will drive and control the
movements OF five or six hundred cattle
in drove. II perfectly understands
its business, and seems TO like it very
much. The stories told Of these drover
dogs are very curious They are very
easily trained, and, what is very singu-
lar, soon learn TO divide drove into soc.
tions, which they drive into differ
ent directions, as required. Il any
Individual Of the drove gets into the
wrong section, the dog will find it out
and bring the animal back. In sheep
driving, the dogs will never bite the SKIN
or even tear lock of wool. They have
peculiar way OF communicating their
/ object by their bark. The drover's dog
never attacks the throat Of the animal It
! is seiz.ng. Il invariably snaps al the
heels, and at one or the other according
Ito the direction it wishes the animal to

TRUTH. The inquiry Of truth,
which is the love making or WOO
ing OF If and the belief of truth,
which is The enjoying OF il, is The sove4
reign good of human nature. The first
creation Of God in he work Of the days
was the light Of sense, the last was the
light OF reason-and his Sabbath work
.eve- since is the illumination Of his sPiD
rit. First he breathed the light upon
the face of matter. or chaos; then he
breathed light into the face Of man; and
still he breathes and inspires light into
the face Of his chosen. Certainly it is
heaven upon earth ID have a mans
mind 10 move in charity, rest in provi.
dence, and turn upon the poles OF truth.
