THE EVENING PRAYER.

We can scarcely imagine . scene more full
of meaning than that presented by the little
child who kneels at his mothers knee to ask
Gods blessing on the sleep into which be is
about to enter. There is great deal ofsig-
ni6cauce in the nightly prayer. II records
the past to-day. and it reminds US Of the
future to morrow leads us to feel how much
to- days words and deeds will affect to- NOR
rows; aud, above oil, to teach us that the
greatest physical or moral power which we
may possess is not our own, but lent to us by
a kind Creator. Sir I. Browne says that
"sleep is deaths younger brother; and so
like him dare not trust him without my
prayers" Who will deny that the nights
rest is swecter for having received Father s
blessing9 Received, We say. for does not
every one that asks receive?

An enslayei press is doubly fatal it not
only takes away the true light, for in that
case we might stand still but it sets up a
false ore that decoys US to cur destruction.
But in the liberty of the press we must un-
derstard the liberty Of discussing the propri-
ETY. Of public measures and political opinions.
not the base liberty Of abusing one another.
Properly educated, however. the public will
rectify that, and those Journals not guided
by truth and right will fall.

DarT The beard movement in England is
one of the most rapid on record, even in these
fast times. Whole towns and classes go in
to it at once. The daily Neus strongly rec
ommends the clergy to abandon smooth sha-
wing, and return TO the manly and majestic
beard as worn BY the glorious reformers of
the sixteenth century. 1t says nothing
would be surer preventive of clergymen's
sore throat than for natures covering to SUI
perscede cravats. The Rev. Peter Bar
low, Incumbent of Cockfeld, has acted on
the advice. Some of his people were SO
highly offended at his resemblance to Crane
mer and Latimer, that they left the church.
The great body of the Congregation, howey-
err, were sensible enough to remain. - Church

now TO AVOID A nAD HUSBAND.

/. Never marry for wealth. A woman's
life consistent not in the things she possess
eth.
2. Never marry a fop, or one who struts
about, dandy-like, in his silk gloves and ruff
flcs, with silver cane, and rings on his EN-
gers. Beware there is a trap.
8. Never marry aniggard, or close-fsted,
mean, sorded wretch, who saves every PEN
ny or spends it grudgingly. Take care lest
he stint You to death.
4. Never marry stranger, or one whose
character is not known or tested. Some fe-
males jump right into the FIRE with their eyes
open.
5. Never ppry NOPE or drone, one who
drawls and draggies through life, ono foot
after another, and lets things have their own
course.
6. Never marry sloven, a man who Is
negligent of his person or dress, aud is filthy
in his habits. The external appearance is
an index to the heart.
7. Never marry man who treats his
mother or sisters unkindly, or indiferently
Such treatment is sure indication Of mean
and wicked man.
s. Never on any account marry q gam
bier, profane person, orone who in the least
speaks lightly of God or religion. Such a
man can never make good husband.
8. Shun the rake as snake, viper, a
very demon.
10. Finally, never marry man who i
addicted to the use of ardent spirits. De-
pend upon it, you would be better off alone,
than you would be, tied to man whose Vi
tails are being guawed out by alcohol.
In the choice of wife, take the obedicnt
daughter Of good mother.

Little Eddy ,on his way to school frequent
ly loitered by small stream which he was
obliged to pass, to witness the gambols Of
his playmates while bathing--the water be-
ing of sufficient depth in some places for that
purpose. Fearing some accident might be-
fal him, his mother had told him never to
venture near, and in strong terms not to go
into the water. One day, however, being
overcome by temptation, and the urgent So
icitation of boys older than himself, he yield
ed to their opportunities and his own wishes
and for an hour entered into their aquatic
sports right heartily. But as i'll luck would
have it, while dressing himself, by some mis-
management he put on his shirt wrong side
out entirely unnoticed by him at the time;
but the quick eye Of his mother detected it,
and OWNED the reason at once. Before re-
firing for the night it was customary for the
little boy to kncel by her side and repeat his
little prayer. While on his knees she took
the opportunity to reproye him for disobey-
ing her commands.

ton, as he thought soon occurred. With a
triumphant look and bold voice he replied /:

principally from wheaton flour. The inven-
tor, who has not taken out q patent, but keeps
the process to himself, asserts that the ooon-
omy is in the process, and ID not obtained BY
the admixturu Of inferior substances. Indeed
there is no farinaceous substance sufficiently
low-priced now for bread to be made from Il
at one sou per pound. 1t is possible thas
there may be less gluten in the bread made

kers but, judging from the taste and ap.

THE HEARTS FLOWERS.

The human heart is ike garden hedged
With thorns. You must pass through the diff
ieult enclosure before you pluck its blossoms.
As one win take more pains to secure violet
that hcurishes in dangerous plaee--for we
are surally fond Of hazard. and prize the
treat res according to its cost; SO the
growths Of the heart, when gained after much
seeking, become Of exceeding value. They
are worth striving after--for where are the
flowers. with tints SO exquisite, with odors SO
transporting. as those which spring from the
rich soil Of the human bosom.
II is proper that each one should cultivate
bis own domains. lie who neglects bis house
hold is worse than an iu6del--and be who
neglects his land shall came to want. But
we may bestow all necessary attentions upon
our own fields and still have leisure to Inspire
and assist others. We may riase blossoms
that has been beaten down by the storm we
may train the vine that has become mis- shaped
we may reive the plant that Is choked
by weeds, and direct the tendril that is look
ing for support. There is work to do fol
others as well as ourselves.
There may be hearts in which such aid
seems useless. There are. We can call
them before u.s. There is no dew that can
revive their blighted blossoms = no sun that
can warm to life their dead fruitago. But
yet the attempt is not wholly useless, for there
may be one blossom and one plant that have
survived the general ex- Grafton.
They have fable in the East. that .
maiden's tears, falling on the lips Of dead
soldier, recalled him to life again. And thus
may it be with hearts whose Vegetation is
withered and dried up--for tears are mighty,
and We may reckon their Influence.
Shall we not then husband our time--and
while we give good heed to our own hearts,
extend our sympathy and aic to others. 1t
is glorious and satisfying labor to work
among the blossoms Of the heart--a labor
which shall make sleep sweet, life beautiful,
aud the future mellow as May morning.

NEVER TREAT RELIGION LIGHTLY.

Impress your mind with reverence for all
that is sacred. Let no wantonness Of youth
ful spirits, no compliance with the intempe
rate mirth Of others. ever betray you into
profauc sallies. Besides the guilt that is
thereby incurred. nothing gives more odious
appearance Of pctulance and presumption to
youth, than the reflection Of treating religion
with leyity. Instead Of being an evidence Of
superior understanding, it discovers pert
and shallow mind, which, vain Of the first
spatterings Of knowledge, presumes to make
light Of what the rest of mankind revere
AT the same time. you are not to imagine
that, when exhorted to be religious, you are
called Upon to DC more formal and solemn in
your manners than others Of the same years,
or to erect yourself into supercilious reprov-
ers of those around. The spirit Of true re-
ligion breathes gentleness and kindness. 1t
is social, kind, cheerful-far removed from
that gloom and illiberal superstition which
clouds the brow. sharpens the temper, de-
jects, aud teaches men to fit themselves for
another world by neglecting the concerns Of
this. Let your religion, on the contrary,
connect preparation for heaven with an hon.
orablo discharge Of the duties Of this life. OF
such religion, discover on every proper occa-
sion that you are not ashamed; but avoid
making any unnecessary ostentation Of it be-
fore the world.
