AMusEMENrs-We must set ourselves
to drive out the gross pastime of drink
ing, by enticing the people to amuse.
ments that are at least harmless, and
may be positively beneficial. 1t may
be doubted whether the wise and good
generally look upon amusement with
the respect it deserves. It is rather
borne with than sought out allowed
as better than low enjoyments, than
encouraged as being really a good
thing in itself. Now, the truth is, that
to a man who has been hard at work all
day, it is matter of much Importance
that he should be enlivened and cheered
in the evening by gentle excitement
1t is right good thing for him to have
social pleasure, to have his eye or his
ear Toasted, and if possible, that his
mouth should be filled with laughter
Indeed the fact that amusement is con
genial to man, is proof that it is in
tended for his good.

INFANCY AND AGE-No house, says
Hdy Ward Beecher, is complete
without two pieces of furniture-the
cradle and the old arm chair. Nc
house is full that hath not in it a babe
and a grandfather or grandmother.
Life becomes more radiant and perfect
when it's two extremes keep along
with it. The two lovers which watch
the cradle and serve the chair are one.
But how different in all their openings
and actions. TO the child the heart
turns with more tenderness of love.
To the aged parent, love is borne up
ona service of reverence. Through the
child you look forward-through the
parent you look backwards. In the
child you see hope, joys to come,
drave ambition, and a life yet to be
drawn forth in all it's many sided
experiences. Through the silver-haired
parent, you behold the past, it's scenes
enacted, it's histories registered.

AN IRON MOUNTAIN.

A correspondent of the Ohio States
man thus describes the famous Iron
MOUNTAIN 70 in Missouri
"1ron Mountain is situated in St.
Francis county. The land on which
it lies was a grant to Joseph Pratt,
by the Spanish Government, when
this portion of the Southwest was
in possession of that Government,
which grant was confirmed by the
Congress of the United States in 1886;
but on account of the difficulty OF
transportation, and Of the impression
that the ore could not be smelted, this
inexhaustible supply was permitted to
remain unproductive until 1915; when
the Iron Mountain Company was
formed, and proceeded to the erection
of furnaces. The mountain is a fiat
tened, conical-shaped hill, with an
average elevation above the surround
ing valleys of 22s feet, the base of
which covers an area of about 500
acres. The ore is the specular iron
ore and is remarkably pure; its average
yield in the furnace being fifty-six per
cent. From the surface indication,
and from all exploration made, the
whole Iron Mountain seems to be
made of Iron ORE Almost the entire
surface of the mountain is covered
with iron ore, the particles increase
in size as you ascend towards the top
until upon it's summit are found dis
connected masses, many tons in
weight, and often six or eight feet in
diameter. To what depth the iron ore
extends below the base of the noun
tain, has never yet been ascertained.
An Artesian well was attempted to be
bored by the Company, at the base of
the mountain, and after attaining to
the depth of $50 feet, most of the way
through iron ore, the work was aban-
doned. When the boring ceased, the
auger rested in a solid mass of ore;
so you see that there is some ore under
ground as well as above"

THE SUN.

The sun never can burn out, never
can perish, except by divine command.
1t is composed of matter that, in our
language is eternal. The sun is a
body of electron, and though it is per-
petually giving out its living prlncl-
pie and preserving powers, it, like our
earth, receives back all it gives So
far is the sun from being burning
body, that it possesses no heat at all.
This is evident from the fact, that the
nearer you approach the sun the cold
er it is: those who have assembled
high mountains, or risen to great
nights in balloons can testify to this.
Our sun supplies the entire system
with light and heat. The substance
it gives out, which is part of itself,
electricity pervades all space, and
is the principle of life to every thing.
All the worlds Of our system are, as
before remarked, lighted up and vivi-
fed by it. After it has performed it's
work among them it is returned to it's
original fountain by means OF the
comets which traverse our system :
thus the order of Providence is kept
up. The heat that is the result of the
SUMS rays, is the effect Of their action
upon our atmosphere and the earth it
self, which is also composed of com
bustible materials. The beautiful cor
ruscations of the aurora borealis are
produced by electric fluid passing
through the earth at the poles. This
spirit power is the originator of all the
phenomena of our earth-earthquakes
the rolling thunder, the lightning's
blaze, the rich tints of the horizon, the
fash of intelligence through the wires
of the telegraph, &c.

blood discharged from my mouth and bowels,
SO that all thought it impossible for me to live
through another chill. The doctors too did ali
they could for me, but thought must die
Nothing did me any good until got Rhodes
Fever and Ague Cure, which at once relieved
me of the distress and nausea at my stomach
and pain in my head and bowels, and produced
permanent cure in short time
II. NJ Conklin says 81 had been taking
medicine of as good a doctor as we have in our
county, and taken any quantity of qllinine and
specifics without any good result, from 25th
August to 18th December. But seeing how
nicely it operated on my brother, got bottk

A HAPPY HOME.

In happy home there will be no
fault finding, no overbearing spirit
there will be no peevishness, no fret
fulness. Unkindness will not dwell
in the heart or be on the tongue. Oh,
the tears, the signs, the wasting of
life, and health, and strength, and time
of all that is most desired in hap
by home, occasioned merely by unkind
words. The celebrated Mr.. Wesley,
remarked to this effect, namely, that
fretting and scolding seemed like tear
ing the flesh from the bones, and that
we have no more right to be guilty of
this than we have to curse or swear
or steal. In perfectly happy home
all selfishness will be removed. Even
as "Christ pleased not himself" so the
members of happy home will not
seek first to please themselves but to
please each other.
Cheerfulness is an ingredient of a
happy home. How much does sweet
ness emanating from heart fraught
with love and kindness contribute to
render home happy. How attracting,
how soothing is that sweet cheerful.
ness that is borne on the countenance
of an affectionate wife and mother
How the parent and child, the brother
and sister, the mistress and servant,
dwell with delight on those cheerful
looks, those confiding smiles, that beam
from the eye, and burst from the Utmost
soul of those who are near and dear.
How it hastens the return Of the
father-lightens the care of the mother
renders it more easy for youth to re-
sist temptation! and drawn by the
cords of affection, how it induces them
with living hearts to return to the pa.
rental roof. Oh, that parents would
lay this subject at heart, that. by un-
firing efforts they would SO far render
home happy, that their children and
domestics shall not seek for happiness
in forbidden paths.

BOOKS.

A learned writer says of books -
They are masters who instruct us with
out rods Or ferules, without words or
anger, without bread or money. If
you approach them, they are not
asleep: if you seek them, they do not
hide if you blunder, they do not scold !;
if you are ignorant, they do not laugh
at you. Few things are more enter
tanning than to pore over book-stall.
There are few here as they. have them
in Europe, in the open street, where a
passer-by may saunter, look at the va
rious titles or dip into volume. This
is rather to be lamented for loungers
aye, even for book worms, as great
lovers of books are called. The latter
person often seeks works that are not
to be found elsewhere, and is Otter
treated with novelty amid old musty
rubbish that no one could ever sup
pose contained any thing new. AnG
then you are smitten by the cheap
ness, or what you think is cheapness
for be it known that whenever you
see book you like, and are determin
ed to buy, it is always cheap. A
book does not come to you as an in
truder. You seek it; and by reflect
ing as you read, you hold converse
with new acquaintance you COM
pare each others minds without dan
ger of violent collision. If you do not
approve of what he says, you turn
from him quietly, without hard words
passing. If you approve, you dwell
upon the expressions and read them
over again. Here is at once a double
pleasure. La Bruyere says: "When
q person of feeling and discernment
reads book, and it excites in him ell
evated thought, he may be sure the
work is good, and he needs no Other
mode of proving it."

My New-England Home.
ny @. T. BARsrow.


The verdant plains of the fertile West,
In rich luxuriance spread:
The streamlet gently murmuring
Along its rocky bed;
The boundlcss forests, in whose shades
The wild deer fearless roam;
Are glorious but prize them less
Than my New England home
What though her bleak and rocky hills
Unwearied toll demand?
What though the harvest which they yield
Scarce fills the reaper's handf
What though her cold and cherries coast
Beats back the oceans foam?
More dear than fairer climes to me,
Is my New England home.
For there my merry youth was passed,
NY childhoods home was there;
Twas there knew sisters love,
A mothers constant care;
And wheresoe' er my lot is cast,
Wherever may roam,
Still may turn with love and pride,
To my New England home.
And when the tolls of life are DER,
And slowly fade away
All earthly joys and earthly woes,
Before brighter day;
Then let me sleep where in the wind
The elm's long branches wave,
Protecting with leafy arch
My own New England grave.
