An Idiot.


We have seldom read anything more touching
than the following account Of an idiot, taken
from one of Dr. Howe's Reports to the Massa-
chusetts Legislatures
One poor idiot who had as will be seen, sew
eral faculties in working order, but no sense
as we should say and some vexatious habits
was punished for his misbehavior, from his in
fancy upwards The aoggngs and railing natu-
rally reused violence in him; and by degrees,
one after another of the household became un-
able to cope with him in physical force, till the
father was the. only person strong enough to
drub him and to him it was becoming hard ex-
ercise. The poor fellow initiated what he saw,
and inflicted what he experienced. He broke
the cows leg with an axe, and smashed the
farming tools, when they would not do what he
liked One blessed evening member of the
Peace Society was at the house and saw the
drubbing, and the fathers difficulty in accom-,
plishing it. He advised other methods and per-
suaded the family to ihflict new punishment,
as punish they wouA The poor creature was
rebuked, shown that if he misbehaved, he should
have only bread and water for his supper, and
should lie on the floor on little straw. He
was not very slow in learning thus much The
next time the COW offended him; he demonstrated
gravely with her, led her into the yard, got
crust of bread and some water, and spread a
little straw on the bare ground, Another day,
he hurt his foot with rake in the field and he
proceeded as he had done with the COW. After
being duly scolded, the rake was laid on hand
full of straw, with a crust of bread and mug Of
water beside it. The last report of the poor
fellow is, he is growing less violent and more

GF THE distinguished Governor Morris, Of
Morrisania, near the city of New York, who was
a gentleman by birth, education, and the most
lofty bearing, on being asked for his definition o
gentleman, replied, in the words of the psalm
ist:--
"'ris he whose every thought and deed
BY rule of virtue moves;
Whose generous tongue disdains to speak
The thing his heart disproves.
Who never did SANDER forge,
His neghbOr's fame to wound
Nor harken to a false report,
By malice whispered round.
WhU vice in all its pomp and power
Can treat with just neglect;
And piety, ,"uusi clothed in rags,
RegiOusly respect.
Who to his plighted words and trust
Has ever firmly stood
And, though he promise to his loss,
He makes his promise good.
Whose soul in usury disdains
His treasure to employ;
Whom no rewards brbe
The guess to destroy"
This Psalm was copied by Mr.. Jefferson, in
the smallest hand and neatest manner, in his
commonplace book.

Our Flag in a French Home.

I'VE copy the account of the experience of
our national flag from letter of the foreign
correspondent of the Erpress-)
81 young American lady presented small
United States flag to gentleman who ascends
every Sunday with M. Poitevin, in his monster
balloon, the Globe. This the gentleman has
taken with him in all his flights A fortnight
ago, however, they made their descent in the
neghborhood of rich propretor's chateau, who
received them with the utmost kindness and hos.
pitality, The family were so much pleased with
the star-spangled banner, which they had of
course never seen before, that the gentleman
felt compelled to make present of it to the la
dy of the house. 1t now hangs upon the wall
of the dining room, with the following words
underneath it,
