simple one-one which have tried with such entire
success, that when succeed in getting my wlfe'S hear

have and amiabe that bachelor, rusty crusty
old one will not be able to visit my family CIRCLE
without being led TO abhor his condition, and try 10
get married right off The remedy is this Let the
Child always lose instead of gain by crying. when
YOU refuse the child don't ed afterwards because II
cries-even if you have changed your mlnd' don |
change your conduct till it has got in good humor
don't tell it if it stops crying 1t shall nave n-ooh
nromise some equivalent condition OF Its stopping
in word let the child know that crying and frettlnS
never does anv good that you will and must govern.
Men and women too, are but children OF larger
growth. If the parent by calmly telling the cnlio IL
could not have wha it wanted. giving the ch'd the
certainty that it could not get it, just absolute feel-
ing of certainty as the one we have That we cant 20
to the moon, or can't change lead into gold or do any
other impossible thing the child would no more mourn
over his impossbility. than we mourn over ours.

He bowed with more than Difference to the person

on his.ear the same angry exclamation, ait is

shooking soene at an Rxeoution.

On the 2Stli uIt., Thomas BoaTd was hung at
Phillippi, Barbour co. Va, for having, on the 9Th
of February last, murdered Strckler j. h. Chris
liph, his nephew, aged 6 years. 1t IS understood
that he died under the deluson that he could COM
nit no sin, and that it was ono harm for him TO kill
a hundred men," He was about 25 years of age,
and had grown up in ignorance and ldleneSs.-
These considerations, perhaps, induced number
of citizens. of Barbour county 10 petition Governor
johnson for Communication of his sentence, which
however, was of no avail. We extract from The
Baltimore Sun the following account OF the exc
cution:-
BY doybreaS the people began TO assemble, and
notwithstanding 1t ralned all day, no less than OF
5000 persons, among whom whom were not less
than 600 women, witnessed the execution. The
salIows was erected about half mile ttom town,
and consisted Of rough, unhewn trunk OF tree,
about nineteen feet high, with horizontal arm OF
about five feet in length. Under this was the seal
fold about twelve feet from the ground. The
prisoner dressed in plain white shIoud, reaching
10 his feet, was carried from the jail in wagon,
attended by John X. Williamson, the High Sher-t
iif and several assistants, guarded by the Barbour
Blues. E.
Arrived at the place of execution, the prisoner
assembled 10 the platform with apparent aiacrlty,
and. was seated in chair and covered with a blan-
ket TO piOtect him from the rain, which iel lnces-
sanity. Rev. Henry Stevens, ofthe Nj. E.Chutch,
then addressed the immense throng for about 20
minutes, in a slow and impressive manner, well
calculated TO move tie hardest heart The ser
vices ended, commenced ole OF tue most hoLrld
and appalling tragedies that ever diSgraced the an
nails of public executions. The prisoner stepped
upon Tie trap, the rope was adjusted around his
neck, and secured to the arm of the gallows; the
Sheriff then asked him il he was ready 10 des He
nnsweredhe was; he touched tue trigger, the trap
fell, and the prisoner dropped TO the ground, the
Tope breaking atthe amfof the gallows. shud-
der suppressed cry of horror ran throughthe vast
multitude, which was not lessened by hearing the
poor wretch cry out in agony: "oh, Lord! Murderl
Murderl' b ifrzs 1 b.r- sa'l'a
The Sheriff Immediately loosened the rope about
his neck, and then, might have been heard the
gurgling. srangling sound, made in the effort tore
gain his breath He was carried to the scaffold,
and seated in the chair, and while the sheriff was
endeayonng to Te-adiust the rope, the prisoner,
with a convulsiye effort with his feet, which we've
tied together precipitsted himself to- the ground,
with the intention of breaking his own neck, and
thus ending his suGerings. For while life SEEM
ed extinct butthe vital spark returned, aud he was
carried up to the scaold, and the rope being again
adjusted, The drop again fell, and the prisoner in
his white shroud covered with mud and dirt, hung
apparent TO all by his struggles, strangledto
death.

The SIxPESNY SAVINGS BANK.-The utility OF
this newly conceived institution is every week fur
iher developed. The deposits already amount TO
more than twenty three thousand dollars, and they
nromise TO swell 10 much larger sum. It is Gu
fous to witness the anxious little faces THE de-
positors in placing their reserved funds here for
safe keeping. The congregated gatherings OF SIX
p.nces wiIiin the course of time, make reSpec-
liable capital, and the mosal effect upon the lower
classes will be of the best order. 1t has been

Il is unnecessary to call the attention oil the

FRosr AND THE CoTroN cRoF.-It is now quite
certain that the cotton crop has sustained serious
injury from the late frosts. Accounts from Middle
and West Tennessee all agree that in the fresh and
in the rich bottom lands, the top crop of bolls
have been so bitten as efectualy to p'evrnt their
maturing. They have in fact, to a very great ex
tent become sodden, and are rOtting on the stalk,
The same is true in regard to the plant IN Georgia
and South Carolina, and we may add, in Missis-
sippi, as far as we have heard. In the Memphis
appeal, we find letter from Yazoo City which
states that the frost onthe oath ult was followed
by cold. heavy rains, and the destruction of the
ton crop of bolls, the main reliance Of the plan.
tiers in that section, has been very great. There
can be no doubt of the present crops falling, at
the least calculation, quarter of amillon OF bales
short of the last crop. The probability is that
the difference will be even greater than that

Law AND Love; or Money rs. MatrtMOny.- Eli.
zabeth Eberts is a pretty young German widow,
who works at the tailoring business, and has a
snug pile of money, to set of the beauty OF her
Rhrewd, good-looking countenance. Lewis DattsJ
bachelor friend from the +fader-land,'' has had
tender regard for him., Some months since there
was mutual promise of marriage between them,
and portion of the money of the woman was lent
10 the firm of which Lewiswas partner. All the
time she Tad sharp look out tot the affairs OF the
firm, and about month ago, under suspicn that
affairs were not prosperng with her INTENDED, she
got the better Of her attachment for Lewis, and at
the same time procured an attachment upon his
propertJ.r Other creditorsimade strike, and the
firm was found unable to pay twenty cents on each
dollar of their debts. Lewis saved about $3.50
hich he put into the hands OF lady to keep Tor
him, while affairs were being settled, suppolng
thatit would all he made right by their marriage.
No sooner,had she got the money into her possess
sion than she determined to appEprate it towards
the payment Of the debt due her and at the same
time began to talk Of postponing the ceremony and
finally declined the honor of giving him her hand.
He took a friend and called TO see her, but was
told that he was not smart enough TO be her hus=
band. He then demanded the nancy, but she was
in no hurry TO pay over, postponing that as She
lad formerly done the nuptiSl ceremony. This
angeTed him. and he told her thai she must either
nav him themoneyo or many him, orSuheEthe con-
SEQUENCES. She chose the latter alternative, and
yesterday was token before the the Pollcd Court
10 answerto hchafge OF larceny. Lewis and sew
eraI friends testified to the facts in the case, and
she was held in $500 for trial at The Municipal
Court. She appeared modes.ly upon the stand
and seemedto e.but little forthe charge against
her; probably she knows that she can at any time
stop the proceedings by accepting the hand OF heE
accusei when all other means of escaping from the
accusation fail.-BostOn HerdId.
