Fathersl plead as you will, that you
are full of care and labor to support
your families. Say it over and over till
you really believe it yourself, if you
please, that when yau come home tired
at night, you cannct be crazed with the
clatter of the children's tongues. You
want to rest and be quiet. So you do,
and so you SHOULDN'T have you any
right to be so perfectly worn out with
business, that the voice Of your own
child is irksome to you? Try, for once,
little pleasant, quiet, instructive chat
with him. Enter for a few moments
into his feelings, and pursuits, and
thoughts-for that child has feelings
that need cherishing tenderly, for your
own future comfort He has pursuits,
and you are the one to talk with him
about them, and kindly tell him which
are useful, and which he would do bet
ter to let alone. He has thoughts, and
who shall direct the mind Alright which
must think forever, if not the author Of
his being? Ask of his school, his play
mates, and see if your own spirit is not
rested and refreshed, and your heart
warmed by this little effort to win the
love and confidence, and delight the
heart of this young immortal, who owes
his entrance into this weary world to
you, and whom you are under the most
solemn obligations to strive to prepare
to act well his part in it. Do not say
this is his mothers business. Has the
Bible laid any command on mothers?
Would it not seem that He who formed
her heart knew that she need be told to
labor in season and out of season for
her beloved offspring? But to you is
the strange command, "Fathers, pro-
woke not your children to wrath, but
bring them up in the nurture and ad-
monition of the Lordi''
Mothers, do you not reap a rich re-
ward for curbing your own spirits, for
every self-denial. for untiring devotion to
the immortsls given to your care, with
souls to be saved or lost? Oh! neglect
them not, lest conscience utter the fear
full whisper, Mother, you might have
saved that soull'- Christian ChrOHiele.

Warning, of Essex county IVA. who
was killed by an insane man. The Sen
tinel says:
As DR.. W. was entering the town of
Tappahannock, in company with anoth-
er gentleman, both being in a buggy,
they were told by some boys that de-
ranged man, by the name of Fisher, had
stationed himself on the roadside with a
gun, for the purpose of shooting the
gentleman who accompanied DR.. War
ring. He, to avoid the man, got out of
the buggy and walked into the village
by another way. DR.. Warning not sup
posing himself in danger, drove on, and
when he reached the spot at which the
man was stationed, he told him not to
shoot, that he was his friend, but the
wretch fred upon him, all the shot took
effect on his head and side. He lived
but few hours, and died amid the re-
grets and lamentations ofkindred, friends
and neighbors.

walked up to the bar of second-rate

quarters for two weeks. During this
time he lodged and breakfasted at the
hotel, but did not take either dinner or
supper, saying his business detained
him in another portion of the town. At
the expiration of the two weeks, he
again walked up to the bar, and said:
"S'pose we settle that account-I'm
going in a few minutes" The landlord
handed him his bill: 1.-TWO weeks board

THE EDIToR's ADVISER.


Saws one your subjects are too grave
Too much morality you have
Too much about religion;
Give me some witch or wizard tales,
With slip-shod ghosts, with fms and
scales,
Or feathers like pigeon.
Hove to read, another cries,
Those monstrous fashionable lies
In other words those novels,
Composed of kings, and queens, and
lords,
Of border wars and gothic hordes,
That used to live in novels.
Mono, cries one, we've had enough
OF such confounded love sick stuff,
To craze the fair creation;
Give us some recent foreign news,
Of Russians, Turks, the Greeks and
Jews,
Or any other station.
Another cries, 1 want more fun,
A witty anecdote or pun,
A rebus or a riddle;
Some long for missionary news,
And some, of worldly carnal views,
Would like to hear fiddle.
Another cries, want to see
A jumbled up variety
Variety in all things;
A miscellaneous hodge-podge print
Composed Il only give that hint
Of multifarious small things.
/ want some marriage news, says Miss,
1t constitutes my highest bliss
To hear of weddings plenty;
For in time of general rain,
None suffer from drought, tits plain
At least not one in twenty.
I want to hear of deaths, says one
OF people totally undone
By losses, fire or fever;
Another answers, full as wise,
I'd rather have fall and rise,
Of raccoon skins or beaver.
Some signify secret wish
For now and then savory dish
Of politics to suit them;
But here we rest at perfect ease,
For should they swear the moon was
cheese,
We never would dispute them.
Or grave or humorous, wild or tame,
Lofty or low, tbs all the same,
Too naughty or too humble;
And every editorial wight
Has nsught to do but what is right,
And let the grumblers grumblel

HusBASD.-The etymology of this
word may not be generally known. The
head of family is called husband from
the fact that he is, or ought to be, the
band which unites the house together
or the bond of union among the family.
1t is to be regretted that all husbands
are not house bands in reality, as in name.
