AUTUMN AND WINTER.
DY FRANCIS GAGE,


The Autumn going with its beauty so
glowing,
pail;
The rose tree is fading, no longer 'ls shad
ing
The arbor of love or the brigh, water fall.
The dahlias are looping, the ripe fruit is
dropping,
The corn.leaves are wilhered and dry on
the stalk,
The rng-dove is sighing, the grasshopper
dying,
The FREELY no onger enlvens The walk
The forests ale changing, the wild birds are
ranging,
To hun, ont hole where the skies are more
The stream deeply flowing, the chilly winds
blowing,
And tells us that Winter, cold Winter is
near
Summers sweets while we're tasting away
all are hasing
The days of the peach and the melon are
o'er;
Then let us be trying while Autumn is dy-
ing,
To lay up for Winter plentiful store.
Work freer and harder, Gil the barn and the
larder,
Then give TO old Winter, when;er he shall
come
A welcome most willing we'll heed not his
chilling,
If there's warmth round the hearth stone
and plenty at home.
But while we are cheerful-no cause 10 be
fearful.
Let US think Of the children OF Sorrow and
Wrong,
And give from our treasure, with no sIinteJ
measure,
OF the good gifts Of Heaven 10 help them
along.

WASHING MADE EAsY.-The "crazy folks"
in the asylum al Hartford, Ct., mix a gill of
alcohol with a gallon Of soft soap, Just as
they are going 10 rub 1t on the clothes, which
they then soak two or three hours, and then
merely rinse out in clear water, and in all
dirt is out as effeclualy as good sense is out
of fellow after drinking the same quantity
of the tpoisonous stuff" Just tell the wo-
men that this is the easiest way to make
washing easy, and urge them 10 try it, and
you will thereafter have no reason to run
away on washing day. In washing stairs and
passages, always use a sponge instead OF
cloth when washing the space between the
carpet and wall, and you will not soil The
edges. Sponge is cheap, and this information
is cheap, but it is valuable 10 all housekeep.

WEBSTER's HEAD.

He was a great man, man OF The largest
mould, grea, body and great brain ; he
he seemed made TO las, hundred years.
Since Socrates, there has seldom been
head so massive, huge. Since the stormy
features of Michael Ang9o,
"'rhe hand that rounded Peter;s dome
And groiued tha nses Of Christian Rome"
He who scul ptured Day and Night into
such beautiful forms-he looked them in his
face before he chsseled them in stone. Du-
puytren and Cuvier are said TO be the only
men in our day that have had brain so
vast. Since Charlemagne, | think there has
not been such grand figure in all Chris,en.
dom. A large man, decorous in dress, dig
niied in department, he walked as if he
felt himself a King. Men from the country
who knew him not, stared al him as he pas
sed through our streets. The coal-heavers
and porters of London looked on him as on
a King. In the Senate of the United States,
he looked an Emperor in that council. Even
the majestic Calhoun seemed common COM
pared with him. What a mouth he had
1t was llon's mouth. Yet there was a
sweet grandeur in his smile, and a woman's
sweetness when he would. What a brow
it was! what eyes,-like charcoal fire in the
bottom of deep, dark well. His face was
rugged with volcanic fires, great passions
and great thought

An eye like Mars, to threaten and command"
