passed away and are forgotten. You may give
bias to the character now forming, you may
make an impression on the mind of some com
panion, perhaps unknown to him and to yourself,
which will influence thousands yet unborn, for
their good believe it is Lockhart, the accom-
plished writer of Sir Walter SCOTS memoirs,
who mentions that in those days of mirth and
reveIry which came near being his ruin, the
room in which he and his associates met was
opposite that in which Scott was writing.-
While thus assembled he used to watch that uu.
known hand, turning off sheet after sheet--un
firing, unceasing. In the midst Of mirth anc
folly, he would turn his eyes and feel a pang o
severe reproofby that silent, unknown, everlasting
hand How little did Scott know that his dill

SOMETHING FOR THE CHILDREN

Mr. Cough tells an anecdote of a little girl
down east, who was very much engaged in the
temperance cause, but who at the same time had
rather more zeal than wisdom. Her father and
mother, and brothers and sisters, had all signed
the pledge, and she didn't know who in the
world to get next One day her mother was
doing some work about the house, when the lit
tie girl came in, putting and blowing, with the
old cat under her arm. why, what in the world
are you going to do with the cat I! asked hel
mother I'VE are all tee-totallers now but her
and she's got to be one too So saying, she
laid the pledge on the table, put pen in thu
cats paw, and guided it so as to make marks tina
looked like 'Puss.' Then she let the cat go
and went in the yard to play The next da,
her mother found her holding poor puss witt
one hand, and boxing her ears at terrible rat
with the other
why, what are you whipping the cat so for

THE PRESIDE.
A MOTHERS TEAR.

There is a sweetness in mothers tears when
they fall on, the face of dying babe, which no
eve can behold with the heart untouched. 1t is
holy ground, upon which the unhallowed foot of
profanity dares not encroach Infidelity itself is
silent and forbears her hooking; and here wo-
man shows not her weakness but her strength;
it is strength of attachment which man never did
nor ever can feel. 1t is perennial, dependent
on no climate, no changes, no soil, but alike ii
storms as in sunshine, it knows no shadow o.
turning A father, when he sees his child go
ing down the valley, may weep when the shad
ow of death has full come over him, and as the
last departing knell falls ON his ears, may say
81 will go down to the grave for my son in mourn
ing" but he turns away in the hurry of bust
ness, the tear is wiped, and though when he re
turns to his Preside, the sportive laugh comes u
to his remembrance, the succeeding day blunt
the poignancy of his grief, and it finds no perma
nent seal. Not so with her who has borne an
nourished the tender blossom. 1t lives in tn
heart where it was first entwined in the dream

THE PRAYING BOY,

A gentleman was not long since called upon
to visit dying female. On entering the hum
bic cottage where she dwelt, he heard in an adj
joining room, an infant voice. He listened and
found that it was the child of the poor dying wo-
man engaged iAprayer: 80 Lord, bless my
poor mother" cried the little boy, "and prepare
her to die! o God, thank thee that l have
been sent to Sunday-School, and there have

that when my father and mother forsake me,

that my poor mother is going to leave me; may
it comfort her, and may she go to heaven-and
may go there too! o Lord Jesus, pity poor
dear mother; and help me to say thy will be

door, approached the bedside the poor woman,

The Rev. DR. Beecher, in an article which he
recently furnished for the Young Reader, that de-
lightfu little paper for little readers published by
the New England Sunday School Union, tells the
following story
GA few years since, as the Rev. Joseph Da-
Wis, an excellent Baptist minister in London,w was
walking along the crowded streets Of that city
his attention was arrested by the circumstance
that a carriage with several horses was about tc
pass over little girl who was slowly crossing
the road. He strongly felt the danger of the
child and forgetting his own, he ran, snatched
her up in his arms, and fastened with her to
the side-path, when the thought struck him
what would the parents of this dear child have
felt had she been killed At this moment he
looked in the face ofthe little girl, which had
been concealed from his view by her bonnet
and imagine if you can, what his feelings were
when he discovered that it was his daughter

Moses went out to meet him. and received him

MORAL CULTURE.

In education, moral culture as far surpasses in
Importance, every other department, as eternity
exceeds in duration, time. The history of the
past is conclusive on this point "The people
of Athens" says popular writer, CONSTITUTED
one grand adult school, Orators, poets, and
philosophers we're their teachers. The facts Of
their history, the achievements Of their heroes,
the glorles of their ancestors, were all treasured
up in-ther memories, III the enduring forms OF
eloquence and poetry. The poems of Homer
and Eurpdes and Pindar, together with maxims
of philosophy and sentiments of virtue, were in
scribed on the living tablets of the Grecian mind
Yet Greece is no more. Science, art, genius,
taste, intelligence, could not save her. In the
days of her comparative Ignorance and barbarism,
she was free. Cultivated, refined, intelligent
Greece was enslaved Modern France affords
abundant proof, that intellectual light may blaze
with meridian splendor, without casting one ray
of hope upon the darkness of moral pollution.
If, then, we would shun the rock upon which
other nations have split, it becomes us early to
infuse into youthful minds a love of virtue and
holiness, How better, than by making the BIZ
bic a textbook in all our schools! In Prussia
the Bible is placed at the head of every course
of study, prescribed by the government. Shall
monarchial, Catholic Prussia manifest more love
for the truth, than Protestant, republican New
England! Let the teacher take from his Bible
his code of laws, his moral precepts Let him
go to the same unerring guide for motives to ac.
ton. Let the great law flove be the law ofthe
schoo-room; and we may hope for the happiest
results.
And why should not the Bible be admitted in.
to the school-room? A book which contains
more valuable moral precepts, more beauty ant
sublimity of thought and expression, more genu
inc poetry, more true philosophy, than all other
books combined
Most wondtous book! bright candle of the Lodi
Star of eternity only star
BY which the bark of man could navigate
The sea of life, and gain the coast of bliss
Securely! Only star which rose Time,
and to the hills of God,
The eternal hills pointed the sinners eye"
