YOUNG MEN.

1t is the misfortune of every mind
that it commences existence in the
same state as that of our rude forefath-
ers and that the accumulated expert
ence of the past-the knowledge
gained while living by the mighty dead,
must be learned over again by the
youth who would strive to wear a
crown of immortal renown. It's only
then in civilized countries where men
can be properly educated and fitted for
the noble actions Of life of true use
fulness. But even in a civilized land
"a land of Universities and Bibles,
we too often find men committing
crimes worthy of the savage and not
of the intelligent virtuous man. The
great fountain that sends forth virtu-
Gus men and women. is virtuous ed
ucation. 1t is needless to say that
this begins at an early age and within
the walls of childhoods home. The
school and the college may draw out
and expand the powers of the mind,
the education of the family may be
sad to make the mind of a good OF
bad quality either to gather honey
like the bee or distil poison like the
wasp. True as this is, it is no less
true that many young men are educa-
ted and trained up in virtues ways
who forsake them when they come to
the years of maturity. This is par

Curious APpLE.-An apple has been
produced near Iiconderoga, N. Y, having
ne lther core nor seeds, by the following
me thod. The experiment is worth repea :
ing, as it may lead to important results !:
OF he top of a young tree was bent over
and covered with earth, which took root.
The tree was then cut asunder, whic h
stopped all connexion with the natural
root of the tree, and by sprouts which
sprang from the top of the body, a regular
top was formed, which produces this fine
fruit-a beautiful red, sized, very pleasant
table apple in the fall"

VELOCITY OF ELECTRICITY.

The immense velocity of electricity
makes it impossible to calculate it by
direct observation it would require to
be many thousands ofleagues long be-
fore the result could be expressed in
the fractions of a second. Yet, Pro-
fessor Wheatstone, Of London, has de-
vised apparatus for this purpose, a.
mong which is double metallic mir
ror, to which he has given velocity
of eight hundred revolutions in Sec
ond of time. The professor calcu-
lates, from his experiments with this
apparatus, that the velocity Of cleo.
tricity through copper wire one IF
teenth of ain inch thick, exceeds the
velocity Of light across the planetary
spaces, and that it is at least 2SS.OOO
miles per second. The professor adds
that the light Of electricity, in a state
Of great intensity, does not last the
millionth part of second but that
the eye is capable of distinctly per-
ceiving objects which present them
selves tor this short space of time.

that their only chance Of a permanent
