About the best comment on the custom of clicking
children for slight offences that we have heard OF
lately, was a remark made by little girl, who was
told by her mother to retire to bed. She was usually
chastised each day about shutdown regularly, but on
this occasion her mschievous pranks had been unac-
counably overlooked and she could not understand it,
Accordingly when her mother told her to go to bed
she fingered. ''Why don't you go to your chamber,
Laura'' asked the parent. "Why, mother" said the
child, looking up with arch expression, yeu hGpet

THE SLAVE MOTHER.

10 leave this darling child to mel
Its form is in my heart
know too well that shall die
II we are doomed to part.
Thrice have we torn my loved away
o God what scenes I've passed
NV blood runs chill, my brain grows wild,
o. leave me but the last "
She MIGHT rs well have poured her prayers
On the cold ear Of death
The hammer falls, and dearest ties
Were sundered at a breath :
NIGHT came, and through the forest dark
A frenzied woman sped;
She needed not the thorns beneath,
The beating storm o'erhead
But how she gained Olios stream
Through dreary swamp and dell,
And how she crossed the cracking ice
o, none but God can tell
And when she trod on Freedoms SOIL
Safe with her infant boy,
Her throbbing heart tumultuous Dent
In wild, delicious joy
But bark the hunter q on his way;
His hounds have crossed the wavei--
But hetet shall that dark proved boy
Become the white mans slave.
One parting kiss-and quick she dashed
Her idol in the stream;
Then turned and hed-but fell,
As pierced her heart its dying scream
God help that chdes' mother now;
Not one free foot Of ground
To save the painting fugitive
In all the Nation round :
NOT one brigh, blade leaps from its sheath
10 free those shackled hands,
Whose veins shall pour their purple tide
On Alabama's sands.
They bound her to a withered treei
Fast fell the lash's stroke,
Until she felt its power no more
Than did that bloody oak.
She howled her curses on her foes:
With arm uplift and bare,
In tones that shook the stoutest heart
She cried II II meet We there "
Was there no ear above to hearT
10 see. no pitying eyer
Methoucht the harps of Heaven grew mute
As svelled that dying cry
Nhv tell not then the bolt Of death
On that God-mocking band?
Re still. my soul-a bitterer cup
Was in the Avengers hand.
A strong man on his sleeplcss bed
Writhed, tossing to and fro;
His life had been a oathsome thing
Since that dark scene of woe.
Forever in hi, dreams form
Came fitting darkly by;
And quiverug flesh, and bloody cash,
Were ever in his eye
An old man on his dying bed
Wri'hed, tossing to and fro;
One voice was sounding in his ear
One tone of mortal wo.--
The lash and scourge were in his SOUL
A dark eyes dying glare
And with a shrek Of agony
He went ''to meet her there"

NEW KIND OF WooL.-The French scientific
world is making great stir about pine wool, or
forest wool, as it is called This is something new
in France, though it has been known for many
years in Germany. Mr.. Pennevitz, of Bres-
lau, first discovered that the acicuary leaves of
pines, frs, and conerous trees generally, are COM
posed of fibres extremely fine and strong which
are surrounded and kept together by resinous
substance. Mr. Pennevitz was not long in seeing
all the utility that this discovery might be to the
industrial world, and he invented a chemical pro-
cess by which fine, thread-like substances contain
ed in the long leaves of the pine, can be drawn
out. He called it forest wool, for it curled and
could be carded like ordinary wool. When, by
detection, and by the employment of certain re-
actves well known in chemistry, the resinous sub
stance has been dissolved, it is easy to seperate
the fbres from each other, 10 wash and clean them
perfectly. The first use which was made of for
est wool was to substitute ii for cotton and ordin-
AIRY wool in bed-clothes A few years ago the
hospital of Vienna bought five hundred of these
covers, and after long and trial it has just re-
newed the provision.
What makes the wool invaluable for beds is,
that no kind Of insect ever approaches bedstead
thus furnished, and though the aromatic odor of
the wool is strong enough to brighten away insects,
it is said to be very pleasant and healthy to per-
sons occupying the beds 1t costs much less than
hair and is much better in every way for stuiiing

IMPROVED ESSEX PIGs.-Of this breed Sand
ford Howard writes as follows, in the Wool Grow
err and Stock Register:
This is one of the most valuable breeds now
known. The establishment of the breed is gem
orally accredited to the late Lord Western. 1t
OF late years been extensively know.,o s &c
Marx MARK Ct a, n sse3 It has, perhaps, carried
more prizes at Smithfeld within the last ten years,
than any other breed. As before mentioned, it
was derired from a cross with the Neapolan, and
nherits the color of that race, with more sze finer
symmetry, and much better constitution. Ste
phens author of the book of the Farmers Guide,
says AS to the breed which shows the greatest
disposition to faten together with due portion
of lean, never saw one equal to that which was
originated by Lord Western in Essex. They
were essentially gentle, ndsposed to travel far,
not very prolific, however, but could attain if kept
on, to a great weight, and so compact in form and
small Of bone and ofal, that they invariably yield
greater amount of pork than was judged of be-
fore being slaughtered. The offal was small, and
more delicious ham was never cured than they af-
forded."
Martin says: "These animals grow rapidly,
fatcn quickly, and yield very superior meat The
hogs when fattened, will sometimes weigh 2G or
28 stones ga lbs), often Is or 20.'
The only ANIMALS OF this breed IN this country,
within our knowledge, are in the possession of L..
G. Morris Esq, of Fordham, Westchester County
N. Y, or of persons who have obtained the stock
of him. His first importation was made about a
year since and his last was the past autumn
Some of these animals were procured directly of
w. Fisher Hobbs, and were of that gentleman s
best stock.
A variety of the Sussex breed is closely allied
to- and NAV be identical with the Essex Some
Of this variety were introduced into this country
several years since by Mr.. Henry Parsons, now
of Gulep, Canada West. The writer of this ari-
Gle obtained stock from Mr. Parsons, and from the
experience of several years, can say that he never
had swine that gave any more weight of carcass,
in proportion to the food consumed, and never any
which equalled them in quality of meat.
There is a white, or nearly white variety of
Essex. Specimens were imported by the late
Mr. Stckney, a part of which are now in the pos
session of Mr. H. III. Williams of Roxbury, Mass.

The ToMATo.-To many persons there is
something unpleasant, not to say disgusting, in the
flavor of this most excellent fruit. 1t has, howev-
err been used for culinary purposes, in various
countries in Europe and has of late years been
extensively cultivated in this country. 1t is one
of the most powerful deobstruents of Wdterid Med
lea and in all those affections of the liver and o.
Their organs where calonel is indicated, it is prob'
ably the most effective and least harmful agent
known in the profession. A chemical extract
may be obtained from it, that will altogether SUE
persede the use of calomel in the cure of diseases
When used as an article of diet it is almost So
vereign remedy for dyspepsia and indigestion. 1t
is, also, most powerful Alternative. Eaten as
/ fruit or as common food, it is a most excellent
article and as a sauce, pickle or preserve, equal
if not superior to any and may be prepared and
eaten in as many different forms. have often
used it in complaints of the liver and other organs
with the happiest success.
The method commonly adopted Of preparing
the fruit is TO cut them in slices, and put them IN
salt and vinegar like cucumbers.
To stew them, take them ripe from the vines
slice them in pot over a stove or fire, without
water; they will cook in their own juices stew
them slow, and when DONE put in piece Of but
ter, and eat them like apple-sauce.
To preserve them in imitation Of figs, to which
they probably are equal, cut them in slices, lay
them in stone pot with alternate layers OF goot
brown sugar. Surprising the method OF raising
them to be generally understood, it is probably
not necessary to describe it here.-N. b. Farmer

Woven like cloth, it can be used for rugs, housings

which remains after the washing and filtering, can
be dried and made into bricks, which are excel
lent for fuel, and which produce gas that can be
used for lamps, and which gives very brilliant
and soft light The water in which the leaves
are washed is admirable for baths and can be bot

Potelfdtes at pdrid7ice.-In conformity with bull
from the Pope, the Archbishop of Treyes has ordered
that Sin all cases of marriages between parties of differ
ent confessions, that the Evangelical PROTESTANT
bridegroom shall take oath to the bishop, or any
one OF his clergy whom he may appoint, by which he
shall bind himself to devote the children he may have
to the Roman Catholic Church." Otherwise, the
marriage is forbidden The King of Prussia has Just
issued general order declaring that he will dismiss
from his service any officer who may take the stipu-
lated oath, degrading to the man and to the Evan
gelcal Confession" In this state of affairs, il is
evident that there will be but little mixing of religious
connubiality.
