a Marshal Of. tho unitod states.

Among the Americans who attended
the late ball given at the Hotel dc Vile
Paris, was Jack Spicer, Of Kentucky
Jack rushed the dress somewhat strong
and sported epaulettes on his shoulders
large enough to start four Major Gene
rails in business. Jack was tho observe
ed of all observers and got mixed up
with party that his friends could not
account for. Wherever tho marshal of
France went, there went Jack; and
when the marshal sat down. Jack did
the same. always taking tho post Of
honor. The day after tho ball Jack
called on his old acquaintance, Mr.. Ma
son. our minister to France. who started
up conversation i'll the following man.

For which you're indebted, l sup

"How? by virtue of my oflice-they

"By right of your Office; what do you

Here Jack presented Mr.. Mason with
whitey-brown paper, with seal big
enough for four pound weight.

"You don't mean to say you travel on

Converts and rSunneries.

The Christian Secretary of March Sd
says: The question has been raised in
the Massachusetts Legislature on the
proprety of making laws to compel
Converts and Nunneries and Roman
Catholic schools to be open and free to
pubic visitation and inspection as Pro-
tostant denominations in this country
to establish converts, fill them up with
young girls, aud then close their doors
upon visitors, or only to certain rooms
under the eye Of the Lady Superior,
when it was known thatth were 9TH
Ell rooms and cells in the building which
they were not permitted to seo-when
it was believed that there arc inmates in
those rooms who wore not detained
there against their wills---that to many
of these buildings there were under
ground passages for the admission of
priests at any hour of the day or night
public indignation would at once be
aroused, and laws would be enacted to
suppress them. But Romish priests APP
pear to be licensed by public opinion
to keep those dens Of darkness, and it
hardly seems possible to screw public
courage up to point high enough to
legislate upon such nuisances."

"I'M GOING HoMH!"

Such was the reply OF brlght-eyed
young girl to u chance acquaintance,
us she was entering the cars. The
thought seemed to light up the lovely
face with tho sun beams of additional
loneliness, as she uttered the words.
"Tm going home," TO cheer my fa-
Their amid the perplexities of business;
to support my mother in the down-hill
journey of life; to rescue by loving adj
vice, brother from the devious path
of vice; to point my young sister to the
bright path of virtue and usefulness,
and to lead the way myself by my OK
ample. What noble thought! What
q glorious destiny!
'I'm going home!' What u delight
full vision to be contemplated! Within
that hallowed circle there are joys that
the worlds frivolity cannot create;-
there are blessings to be found nowhere
else this side the great home of heav-
en-! How bright the scene that rose
to her Imagination! Smiles, appear
ing the more lovely, because the faces
that beamed with them were furrowed
with wr.nkles--smiles, not the less
touching, Tor shining through the dewy
moisture of the eye; welcome, that
came from the trcasure-house of the
heart, new coined from the old, longtri-
cd gold of purified affection. Was not
the anticipation worthy the gladness
that Suffered around the dimpled
nscuth, and bathed itself in the pure
s'-g'enl of those eyes.
lm going home! Alas! all can
not utter it, that cheering thought
20 some, home is but the furnacehouse
of trials and affection; an escape from
it. even for moment, tho green oasis
in the burning desert Of life. "Going
home" to such, is return to prison,
chains, torture, and lifelong DEATH
Couri c, brave heart! The furnace
purifits while it tries; the torture siren
gthen- while it racks: the prison has
blessing amid its gloom. Duty stands
craven in living characters on every
instrument of torture. Work on thou
brave heart! The home may yet be
anade paradise by your efforts.
"I'm going home!" There are some
who can never utter the exclamation
There are those, young and tender, u
beautiful, to whom the word is unknown
There is no paradise to them, of cen
tired joys, where love can meet them
with it's bliss, or the sacred pleasures
of the family fill the affections. Let
such have the sympathy they need, all
the assistance that the virtuous can
give to support their steps, and draw
them away from vice.
'I'm going homc!' tits sometimes
The last words we hear from the dcpar-
ting spirits. Earth, with all its fami.
ly bliss and all it's rational joys, is not
our home. The properly disciplined
heart knows that earth is but a pilgrim.

ate. Such heart rejoices that there
is q permanent home, made happy by

turning maiden, and with q heavenly
brightness of eye, far outshining hers
that he exclaims 'I'm going home"

washing Windows.

A correspondent of the American .H.g-
riculturists gives the following improv-
ed method Of washing windows, which,
although not wholly news to us, may
be of use to some Of our readers:
The incest article for washing win
dows is deer skin, as no particles come
off to adhere to the glass and make it
look as washed with feathers. There
is no need of any thing larger than a
hand basin for washing windows. The
great splashing some people make in
the exercise Of their art is entirely use
less, and is moreover deleterious.---
When the water is permitted to run
down in great quantities upon the glass
it dissolves the putty and soon looscns
the panes from their setting, and also
stains the glass Two peices of wash
leather and bowl Of suds are all that
arc necessary. Wipe the glass first with
the wet cloth. and it will look clear and
far more so than if rinsed in dozen
pals of water.
