THEIR LIGHT SHINEs.-HeSsrs. Editors: Some
drawings, executed by Miss Anna V. Young
Miss Laura Jones, Miss Sallie w. Young Mas
ters Richard L. and John II. Maury, have just
been left at Mr.. Gray's, as an offering to patri-
otism and juvenile improvement. The ages of
the donors are thirteen, thirteen, eleven, ten
and eight years, showing improvement under a
course of four months instruction, highly cred
table both pupils and teacher. The energies
of hand, head, and heart have evidently been
enlistedin aid of each other, in work so credita-
BILE to oil. -".U.
gg The success of these juvenile efforts is ex-
planned, in part at least, by the remark of q
| highly skilful teacher in New York who said :
"My girls are very apt to grow careless in their
writing, drawing, and other exercises, unless
they are preparing specimens to send abroad
when they always do their very best" The
motive of executing work worthy>to go into the
hands of some Senator of the United States, n
Foreign Minister or some similar yadiatinq
agency, doubtless animated these generous young
spirits in high aims at excellence which aims
they most surely reached, to the qualification of
themselves, their teacher, and their parents
Giving light to others can probably, in no case,
fail of increasing light, most of all in the foun-
tain from which it issues. We indeed learn,
from high authority, furnished some time since,
that " it is more blessed to give than to receive"
That lesson fully understood and inculcated by
teachers, and parents too, could probably never
fail of securing good lessons on all subjects
from all pupils. Such, at least, is the conclu-
sion drawn from very long and very large expe-
rience, by III.

1t will be seen that the Democrats have q
clear majority in the above States of from six
to twenty-five, as we count the Democratic
Free-soilers for or against them.
The thirteen States which have not yet elected
members of Congress were represented in the
last House by twenty-eight Wings, sixty Demo
crafts, and one Democratic Free-soiler. 1t is not
at all probable they will do this at the ap-
preaching elections. Several of them, especially
Georgia, Mississippi, and Alabama, are merging
old party divisions. In these States, Union
and Disunion are the rallying points. In Vir-
ginia the same issue will enter largely into the
contest. How far they will alter the result is
now impossible to foresee
In the event of there being no election of
President by the people, the choice will devolve
upon the House of Representatives. Each
State through its delegation, will be entitled to
vote. AS there are thirty-one States, the
votes of sixteen States will be necessary to an
election. In the above eighteen States the
Wings have 1najorities; Vermont, Massachusetts,
Florida, Michigan, and Missouri-5; the Demo-
Gratis, in Maine. New Jersey, Delaware, Penn
sylvania, South Carolina, Illinois, and Iowa..
The Free-soilers have Wisconsin, New
Hampshire, Rhode Island, and New York have
equally divided delegations; and in Connecti-
cut and Ohio the Free-soilers appear to hold
the balance of power. ..-
OF the thirteen States which are yet to elect
the Wings had majorities in the last Congress,
in the delegations of North Carolina and Ken
lucky, two; the Democrats in the remaining
States, with the exception of Maryland, whose
delegation was equally divided. 1t is obvious
that the Wings must carry eleven of these thir-
teen States to have the control of the Presden-
tial vote of the House. The Democrats must
also carry nine to be quite sure 1t is, however,
by no means improbable that the States of
Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, and California,
will elect divided delegations In that event.
the Wings having the control of three of the
remaining delegations, it is difficult to see how
the House will be able to make IN election

LOVE, AND LOVE-KNOTS.
BY JOEL AUSTIN.
Love is heat, full of coolness;
A sweet, of bitterness full
pain, teeming with pleasantness-
Shrewd and discerning, yet dull. ..
Loves a chameleon, and feedeth
But on the air it inhales;
The tongue, alone of the body,
1t nourishes, where Love prevails
This Love is the mother of HOPE
But her favorite child is CARE;
And she sometimes tiirts with the monster
a But never could wed him-DEspAR.
Love is the light of the lowly, aNi &
And shines where the pine-knots burn
Makes warm the halls of the stately,
And sings from the silver urn.
Love-knots are tangled with glances-
Can not be united with tho hands
Are made fast with thoughts, and fingers
Have never yet loosened Loves bands.
Love is sure killed by assembling
Ingratitude burieth Love;
One has the choice to begin it,
But who has ceased loving that strove2
