Each pretty hand
Can stear a ship becalmed but he that will
Govern and carry her TO her ends, must know
His tides his currents; how to shift his sails
What she will bear in foul, what in fair wcathers ;
Where her springs are, her leaks, and how to
stop en-;
What sands, what shelves, what rocks do threat
en- hers
The forces and the natures of all winds.
Gusts, storms and tcmpcsts when her keel

And deck knocks heaven then to manage her
Becomes the name and office of pilot"

NILEARITY.

We would guard the young against
every word that is not perfectly proper.
Use no profane expressions-allude TO no
sentence that would put the blush to the
most sensitive. You know not the ten
dency of habitual using indecent and pro-
fame language. 1t may never be OBJ
liberated from your hearts. When you
grow up YOU will find at tongues end
some expression which you would not use
for any money. 1t was one you learned
when quite young. BY being careful You
will save yourself gread deal OF trouble,
modification, and sorrow. Good men
have taken sick and become dellrious.
In those moments they have used the most
vile and indecent language imaginable.
When informed of it after restoration to
health, they had no idea of the pain they
had given TO their friends, and stated they
had learned and repeated these express
sions in childhood, and though years had
passed since they had spoken bad word,
the early impression had been indellbly
stamped upon the heart Think OF this
We who are tempted 10 use improper Ian
guage, and never disgrace yourselves.

Thn Realities of Life.

The seeds of great empires, like the
germs of all true greatness, in both the
natural and moral world, are imperfectly
sown. The acorn is blown about for
months, the sport of every ftful breeze,
before it finally takes root in the soil and
the season must follow season, and fashion
ebb and flow for many years, before the
mature oak spreads its branches TO the
skies, and bids defiance to the wlntery
blast. Myriads of little shell-fsh die, and
for centuries the water rolls above them
before the coral reef is formed; but 1t is
formed, and slowly, yet surely, rises lis
head above the waves.

AT Evening Time it shall be Light
Walk with the Lord at morn
While every scene is fair,
While opening buds the boughs adorn,
And fragrance fills the air.
Before the rosy dawn awake,
And in thy beings pride,
In the young blush of beauty, make
Omnipotence thy guide.
Walk with the lord at noon,
When feryid suns are high,
And pleasures with treacherous boon,
Allureth manhood's eve;
Then, with diamond shield Of prayer,
Thy souls opposers meet,
And crush the thorns of sin and care
That binds the pilgrims feet.
Walk VI ith the Lord at eve,
When twilight dews descend,
And nature seems a shroud to wear
As for some smitten friend.
Or slow the lonely moments glide
On mournful wing away,
Press closer-closer TO His side,
And he will be thy stay.
And should'st thou linger still,
Till midnight spreads her pail,
And age laments, with bosom chill,
Its buried earthly all
Thy withered eye, signal bright
Beyond the tombs shall see
For He who was the morning light
Thy GoD--shall walk ,oith thee.

New Series-VOi. G-No. 20.

The subject of regulating election districts,
naming election houses, which annually oc-
cupies much of the time of the Legislature,
and many pages of the Journal and statute
books, might be safely confded to the COM
mlssloners of the respective counties The
subject of divorces should it seems to me, be
left entirely with the courts, as well, also, as
the whole subject of selling real estate by
trustees, guardians and those acting in a rep
resentative capacity. These measures, toge-
ther with few more general statutes on the
subject Of corporations, would, think. have
most salutary effect on legislation. AS far
as possible our laws should be general and
those that are so should be sternly maintain
ed against special innovations.

A Traveller was lately riding on horse
back where the mud was SO deep that his
feet touched the 'lob-lolly' on either hand.
The struggles Of the poor horse to draw
his feet out Of the soft clay were of course
desperate, and he could not make more
than about mile and half an hour.

was standing on the fence, without coat

The Mysterious Tracks, which have
given rise to so much speculation, have
not been confined to Coventry, or TO
Kent county. They have been seen in
other parts of the State. We learn, upon
reliable authority, that they were seen
around the Butler Hospital, on Christmas
morning. and they have been seen in many
other places. The description corresponds
in all the cases. The tracks have every
appearance of those made by colt; yet,
TO fulfill all the apparent conditions, the
animal should be able to pass through
holes that would not admit large sized
cat, should be winged, and should be OF
such weight as TO press the foot into
the ground as deeply as the hoot of
an iron shod horse. We learn from
friend in Coventry. who has seen the
tracks, that letter has been received there,
stating that similar tracks have been OBJ
served in Ohio, but we have seen no
mention of this in the papers. The
track is not cloven. so it cannot be made
by the devil, as was at first apprehended.

A backwoods Judge thus clearly defines
the crime of murder:
Murder, gentlemen, is where a man is
murderously killed. The killer in such
case is a murderer. Murder by poison is
as much murder as murder with a gun.
1t is the numbering which constitutes mur-
der in the eye of the law. You will bear
in mind that murder is one thing and man
slaughter another. Therefore. it is not
manslaughter, it must be murder. Self
murder has nothing to do with this case.
One man cannot commit feiO de Sc OH an
other-,hat is clearly my view. Gentle
men, think you can have no difficulty.
Murder. say, is murder. The murder
Of a father is fratricide but it is not fratri-
eide if man murders his mother. You
know what murder is and | need not
tell you what il is not! | repeat that mur
der is murder. You may retire upon it if
