The Prophetic DeW,drODS,

A delicate child, pale and prematureIy wise,
was complaining on hot morning, that the poor
dew drops had been too hastily snatched away,
and not allowed to glitter on the flowers like
other happier dew drops that live the whole night
through, and sparkle in the moonlight and
through the m ornng onward to MONDAY. "The
sun, said the child, "has chased them away
with his heat, or swallowed them up in his wrath.
Soon after came rain, and rainbow, where
upon his father pointed upwards; "See," said
he, ''there stands the dew drops glorious roset-
glttering jewelry-in the heavens; and The
Clownish fool tramples on them no more b.
this, my child, thou art taught that what wither
upon earth blooms again in heaven" Thus thu
father spoke, and knew not that he spoke pre-
figuring words; for soon after, the delicate child
with the morning brightness Of his early wis
dom, was eShaled, like dew drop into heav

THHE FBRE-SHDE.
A Happy Home,

In happy home there will not be lault-hnd-
inc, overbcarlng spirit--there will be no pee
yshncss nor fretluncs Unkndness will not
dwell in the heart nor be found on the tongue
o the tears, the signs, the wasting of life and
health, and strength, aud ime-of all that is
most to be desired in happy home accustomed
merely, by unkind words! The celebrated Mr.
Wesley remarks to this effect, namely, that fret
ting and scoding seem like tearing the flesh
from the bones, and that we have co more right
to be guilty Of this sin, than we have to curse
and swear and steal,
In a perfectly happy home, all sel6shness will
be removed. Even as "Christ pleased not hnl-
self" so the members of happy home will not
seek first to please themselves, but will seek to
please each other.
CheerIuness is another ingredient in a happy
home. How much docs sweet smile, emana-
ting from heart fraught with love and kindness,
contribute to render home Joyous and happy
How attracting, how soothing is that sweet cheer
fitness that is borne on the countenance Of
wife and mother. How do the parent and child,
the brother and sister, the mistress and the SER
want dwell with delight on these cheerful looks,
those confdng smiles that beam from the eye,
aud burst from the Utmost soul of those who
are near and dear. How it hasens the return
of the father, lightens the cares of the mother,
renders it more easy for the youth to resist
temptations, and, drawn by the cords of adec-
ton, how it induces them, wilhoving hearts, to
return to the parental roof
0 that parents would lay this subject to heart
that by untred effort they would so far render
home happy, that their children and domestics
shall not seek for happiness in forbidden
paths

temperance Anccd0tc-An old lady residing
not many miles distant, kept very large family
of turkeys, perhaps sixty. She like great
many other people, thought great deal Of her
turkeys, and consequently valued them very high
ly. Opposite her door was West India Goods
Store. The man who kept it ore day emptied
his casks of cherries, intending to replace them
with new. This old lady, being very economi-
cal thought it great pity to have all those cher
ries wasted, and in order to have them saved she
would drive over her turkies and let them eat
them. In the course of the day the old lady
thought she would look after them and see they
were i'll no mischief
She approached the yard, and 10 in one cor
ner lay her turkies in one hinge pile. dead Yes,
they were stone {" dead" What was to be done?
Surely the coed matron could not lose all the
feathers She must pick them She called
her daughters, and picked them, intending to
have them buried the next morning. Morning
came and behold there were her turkies stalking
about the yard teatherless enough, las may be
supposedly crying out "qut, quit, feeling no
doubt, mortified that their drunken fit had been
the means of losing their coats. Poor things,
if they had quit before they begun they would
not have got into this &c bad thing"
| would advise all young men who are in the
habit of drinking, to leave off before they get
picked; and to those who do not, let every
young lady say, " quit. Star Of Bethlehem.

Coed Advice 10 Young Women.

Trust not to uncertain riches, but prepare
yourselves for every emergency in life. Learn
to work; and not be dependent on servants to
make your bread, sweep your floors, and darn
your own stockings Above ALL do not esteem
too lightly those honorable young men who sos,
tain themselves and their aged parents by the
work Of their own hands, while you carcss and
receive into your company those lazy, idle pop
mays, who never lift finger to help themselves,
as long as they can keep body and soul together

useful in the cure Of Bilious Fevers, and
are particularly adapted to the climate Of the

E Mr. NJ. Greene, oe Henry county. has u.ed
them in his own family and among his neigh

superior to any family medicine now offered
TO the public. He believes that to his own
knowledge more than q dozen Of his neigh
bors have been cured Of bilious fever during
the past fall, by the rise only Of Reads Ca
thar,ic Pills.
James p, Smith, Of lee county, will nave
no other cathaitic pills in his house, and use
