Almost. captain-don't give up; for
the love OF our dear little ones al home
don't give up, captain
The oars flashed as the blades turned
up to the moonlight The men who piled
them were fathers, and had fathers hearts;
the strength which nerved them at that
moment was more than human.
Suddenly Mr.. Larkin stopped pulling.
and my heart for moment almost ceased
its beating; for the terrible though. that
he had given out crossed my mind. But
was quickly treasured by his voice:
Gently, captain, gently--a stroke or
two more-there, that Will do'-and the
next moment the boats side came III con-
tact with something. and Larkin sprang
from the boat with his heavy feet upon
the ice. [ started up, and calling upon
the men to make fast the boat 10 the ice,
followed.
We ran to the dark spot in the centre
OF the mass, and found two little boys
the head of the smaller nesting in the bo-
som Of the larger Both were fast asleep.
The lethargy. which would have been
fatal but for the timely rescue, had over
come them MIR. Larllin grasped one OF
the lads. cut of isshoes, tore of his jack

the skin, placed the child in contact with
his own warm body, carefully wrapping
over him his greatcoat. which he pgocur-
ed from the boat | did the same with
the other child and We then returned 10
the boat, and the men, partially recovered,
pulled slowly back.
The children, as we learned when we
subsequently had the delight of restoring
them to their parents, were playing OH
the Ice, and had ventured on the cake,
which had jammed into the bed OF the
river, ten miles above New York. a
movement of the tide set the ice in mo-
ton, and the little fellows were borne

A WORD To MARRIED MEN.-Do we
not underrate the cares and anxieties of
our wives Absent from home all day,
we do not see the many troubles which
beset their paths. In our opinion there
would be less grumbling aud fault -inding,
if husbands would weigh well the veX.
atious responsibilities Of their wives
The care Of a house, the superintendence
of servants, the management of children.
are not light duties, and yet most men
seem 10 regard them with indifference.
W e can tell those who do not know it,
that vast deal o. patience and philoso-
phy are requisite to the conduct of the
adair Of household i'll an economical.
pleasant and blameless manner. Let us,
then, if matters should go wrong'occasion
ally exercise reasonable foYbearauce. Ii
we cannot counsel aud encourage, let us,
at least, not censure. That man is but
a degree removed from the brute, who is
forever fretnng and scolding because this
OF that Is not right. And yet there are
such in the world, to the shame of hu-
mauity be it said They look for the
woman of the experience of forty wears
in the girl Of twenty, and are disappoint-
ed and sourred when they do not ind it,
We greatly pity the poor girl who hap
pens TO fail into such unworthy hands:
" Better lead apes, you know where"
girls than get one OF these wretches for 4
husband.
There are cares and troubles enough in
the married state, without the agglava-
ton OF bad temper. GentIeness is be-
coming III Z woman but it is grand in a
man, and society would be much happier
if tins beautiful virtue predominated TO a
greater extent. DR.. Fuller very arpro:
pfately SAYS. Deceive not thyself by
ever expecting happiness in the married
state. Look not therein for couteutment
greater than God will give, or creature
III this world can receive, namely, 10 be
free from all iuconveniences. Marriage
is not like the hill of Olympus, wholly
clear without clouds.

Coop ADWcE.-John Il Prentiss, in
his recent valedictory on retiring from the
editorial chair, which he had filed for
f0/ty-Dns gears, has the following:
mo man should be without a well
conducted newspaper; he is far behind
the spirit Of the age unless he reads one
is not upon equal footing with his fellow
man who enjoys such advantage, and is
disregardful OF his duty to his family, in
not aiording them an opportunity of ac-
curing knowledge of what is passing
in the world, at the cheapest possible
teaching. Snow me a family without a
newspaper, and | venture 10 say that
there will be manifest in that family Ii
want OF amenity of manners and indica-
tons of ignorance, most strkingly IN con-
trast with the neighbor who allows HIM
self such rational indulgence. Young
men, especially, should read newspapers.
If were boy, even of II years. would
read a newspaper weekly, though had
to work by torch-light to earn money
enough to pay for it. The boy who
reads well wilt learn TO think and analyze,
and if so, he viii almost be sure to make
a man of himself, batting vicious indul-
gencies, which reading is calculated TO
beget dlstaste for."
