what Hope Did.

II stole on its pinions Of snow to the bed
of disease; and the sufferers frown became
a smile, the emblem of peace and endu-
rance.
1t went 70 the house of mourniDg-snd
from the lips of sorrow there came sweet
and cheerful songs
1t laid its head upon the arm ofthe poor,
which was stretched forth at the command
of unhOly impulses, and saved him from
disgrace and ruin.
1t dwelt like a living thing in the bosom
of the mother, whose son tarried long after
the promised time of his coming; aud saw
ed her desolation, and the care that killeth.
1t hoVered about the head Of the youth
who had become the Ishmael Of society;
and led him on to works which even his en-
emies praised.
1t snatched a maiden from the jaws of
death, and went with an old man TO Hea-
ven.
No.-hopel my good brother. Have it.
Beckon it on your side. Wrestle with it
that it may not depart Itmay lessen your
pains. Life is hard enough st best but
Hope shall lead you over its mountains
and sustain you amid its biIoWs Part
with all beside-bul keep thy hope

sixty feet of Daughters.

In the Half Century Sermon by Rev.
DR.. Brace, of Newington, CT, We find a
fact respecting the Edwards family, which
we do not remember to have seen else
where stated. Speaking of Mr.. Backus.
one of his predecessors, he says: "His wife
was one of ten daughters, every one Of
whom has been said to be six feet tall
making sixty feet Of daughters. and all of
them strong in mind-children of Rev.
Timothy Edwards, of East Windsor."-
That man who had sixty feet of daughters,
and besides them one son who had more
than sixty feet Of intellect, must according
to the Psalmist's views of things, have
been happy man.

EE What an abomiable fashion is that
now prevailing of combing back the hair
from the forehead of children in order to
give the face fullnes as It's said II is q
species Of domestic torture productive of no
good, and ought TO be discontinued. A
high forehead is not mark of beauty, de-
scsnt as we may upon the phrenology of
full perceptive and reflective facultes.-
The most beautiful women are those whose
lace gives not the impression of boldness
but rather of sweetness and repose and the
effort to draw the hair away from the face
as it naturally grows is to give that face an
unfsminine and male expression. This ap-
plies to those who, to attain "high fore
head" torture their scalp by circular comb
which, drawing the hair straight backward
makes the unfortunate wearer not more
beautiful but more bold Let the hair
grow in its native grace and the child will
be more beautiful and natural than the arts
of false taste and the fortunes of fashion
can possibly render her.
ApropoS is this rather rude reminder
from the Boston Post, whose editor. evil
IDENTIFY, is not one Of the most devout wor-
shippers at the shrine Of unwomaniy Wo-
man:
"The notion that high foreheads, in wo-
man as well as men, are indispensable to
beauty, came into vogue with phrenology
and is going out with the decline of that
pretentious and plausible science" Not
long ago more than one "fne lady" shaw
ed her head to give it an "intellectual" ap-
pearance, ard the custom of combing the
hair back from the forehead, probably orig
mated in the same mistaken ambition
When it is considered that great expanse
of forehead gives bold masculine look
that from irons forehead comes the
word "afrontery"-it will not be wondered
that The ancient painters, scul ptors and po-
cts considered low forehead "a charming
thing in woman" and indeed, indispensable
to female beauty. Horace praises Lycoris
for her low forehead tenuis trOns. aud
Martial cOmmends the same grace as decid-
edly as he praises the arched eyebrow"

The winter Of the Heart.

Let it never coma upon you. Live SC
that good angels may protect you from this
terrible evil-the winter of the heart.
Let no chilling influence freeze up the
fountains Of sympathy and happiness in it;
depths; no cold burthen settle over its
withered hopes, like snow on the faded
flower, no rude blasts of discomfort moan
and shrek through all its desolated cham
bers.
Your lfe-palh may lead you through
trials, which for time seem utterly to i'm
pede your progress, and shut out the very
light of heaven from your anxious gaze.
Penury may take the place of ease and
plenty; your luxurious room may be ex-
changed for single lowly room-the soft
couch for straw pallet-the rich viands
for the coarse food of the poor. Summer
friends may forsake you. and the uupity-
ing world pass you, with scarcely look or
word of compassion.
You may be forced to toll YEARLY, stead
lily on to earn a livelihood; you may en-
counter fraud and the base avarice that
would extort the last fartbing till you well
nigh turn in disgust from your fellow beings.
Death may sever the dear ties that bind
you to earth, and leave you to fearful dark
ness. That noble, manly boy, the sole
hope Of your declining years. may be taken
from you while your sphit c.ings to him
with wild tenacity, which even the shad-
oW of the tomb cannot subdue.
But amid all these sorrows do not come
10 the conclusion that nobody was ever so
deeply afflicted as you are, and abandon
every anticipation of ''better days" in the
unknown future.
Do not lose your faith in human excel
lence, because your confidence has some
times been betrayed, nor believe that friend
ship is only delusion and love bright
phantom which glides away from your
grasp.
Do not think you are fated to be misera-
bic because you are disappointed in your
expectations, and bafled in your pursuit.
Do not declare that God has forsakeu
you when your way is hedged about with
thorns, or repine sinfully when he calls
your dear ones to the land beyond the
grave.
Keep holy trust in heaven through
every trial, bear adversely with fortitude,
and look upwards in hours Of temptation
and suffering. When your locks are white,
your eyes dim, and your limbs weary ;
when your steps falter on deaths gloomy
vale, still retain the freshness and buoyancy
of spirit which will shield you from the
winter of the heart.

IIoIy Water--Amu.lng Aneeaote

A friend Of nine (says Mr.. Lambert, in
bis Trayels,O was once present at the
house Of French lady in Canada, when a
violent thunder storm commenced. The
shutters were Immediately closed, and The
room daikened. The lady Of the house,
not wiling to leave tlie safety Of her com
parry TO chance, began to search her closet
for the bottle cf holy eafsr, which by
sudden flash Of lightning, she fortunately
found. The bottle was uncorked, and its
contents Immediately sprinkled over The
ladies and gentlemen. Ii ras most
dreadful storm, and lasted considerable
time: she therefore redoubled her spfiDk.
lings and benedictions at every clap Of
thunder or flash Of lightning. Al length
the storm a5ated and the parties were
'proydeniially' saved from its effects, which
the good lady attributed solely TO the pre-
cious water. But when the shutters were
opened. and the light admitted, tho com.
pany found, TO the destruction Of their
~hiie gowns and muslin handkerchief.
their coats, waistcoats, and pantaloons. that
instead Of holy waller, the pious lady had
sprinkied them with ink.

The Hand.

Lavater told Goethe, that on a certain
occasion when be held the velvet bag in
the church, as collector of the offerings, he
tried to observe only the hands; and be-
satisfied himself that in every individual,
the shape Of the hand and of the fingers,
the action and sentiment in dropping the
gift into the bag, were distinctly different,
and individually characteristic. =
There are hands Of various character: the
hand to catch, the hand to hold the hand
to clasp and the hand to grasp: the hand
that has worked, or could work, and the
hand that has never done anything but
hold itself out to be kissed, ike that Of Jo-
anna Of Aragon. in Rapbael's picture. Let
any one look at the hands in Tilian's por-
trait of Old Paul "; though exquisitely
modelled, they have an expression which
reminds US of claws; they belong to tbs
face Of that grasping old man, and could
belong 10 no other.

OIdAge.

1t is not well that man should always
labor. Ills temporal as well as spiritual in.
terest demand cessation in the decline oI
life. Some years of quiet and reflection are
necessary after life of industry and activ-
ity. There is more to concern him in life
than ineessant occupation. and its product
wealth. He who has been drudge all
his days to one monotonous mechanical pur-
suit, can hardly be ft for another world
The release from toll in old age, most men
have the prospective pleasure of, and in the
reality, il is as pleasing as it is useful and
salutary, to the mind. Such advantages.
however, can only be gained by prudence
and economy in youth we must save, like
the ant, before We can hope to have any
rest 10 the winter Of our DAYS.
