How To EDUCATE CHILDREN.-Hall's Jour
nal of Health contains the following sugges-
tive paragraph, which ought to be remem-
bered and acted upon by every parent and
guardian in the land. The writer says:
"Had / the choice of only four things to
be taught my children, they should be: To
sing we'll, to read well, TO write well, and to
sketch well. Protection in these will earn
their possessor maintenance in any coun-
try, and will enable him to amuse himself
or entertain company, whether it be under
rock in the desert or upon crag in the
sea-"

olive FOR suMETlilNG.a

Live for so,nehine;" lerthy purpose
Be as broad as yonder sky
Place the staniafd-speak the watchward,
Point the golden arrows high
Daring souls have gone before thee,
, Making smoother still the way;
Face the daugef--meet The tempest,
Crarea hearts alone delay.
"Live for something" though the Father,
Gave thee not the graspiug mind,
Fill the measure OF thy talent, ...
! Spuinns not the task designed
They are worse than decd, who basely
Leave The field as yet unwon;
Bend thy ear aud uerve thy spirit
Though il be the signal gun.
Live fcr somelhing,n hold no treaty
With the demon of despair,
Keep thy forehead TO the sunlight,
Thou shalt see "the promise" there,
Thus The oklen prophets struggled,
Through the flames lha, upward rolled,
Thus The great men OF the present,
Have their glowing names enrolled.
Fear not towards may be near thee,
With their tongues TO poison faith,
Lend no ear but face thy duty,
Even unlo chains aud death.
Bc,er far to die relying,
On some truth the crowd had sputned,
Than TO live forever sishihg,
Tha, To stone is leil unutned,
"Live for something" make thy mission,
Worthy OF noble soul,
Stand not trvmbline lest the life bark
Strike against the fatal shoal.
Spread The sails, and tavoriug breezes,
Yet shall wait thee safely on,
Till the "ls.ands OF the blessed"
Lift their green shores TO the sun.
"I.ivc for something w--from the ages
Comes deep prophetic tone,
Speaking through times mouidy caverns,
"Make the hidden things Thy own"
Grasp and give with hands unspar,ng,
For the future hath lis store;
Aud The world like hungry children.
Cries unceasing "Give me more J"
olive for somethng," though Newton
Sent his great thoughts round the sphere:
Learned their secrets, found their motions,
Stored them up Tor future yeats.
Though with simple Kite Franklin
Drew the iishlning to his side
They are richer pearls urgalhered,
Greater power yet unapplied.
"Life for something" win garland,
That shall stand the blasts OF time
Mid Tho shrinking forms around thee,
Fearless tread the path sublime;
Then, though but seeming cypher
In the long Eternal sum,
Thou shalt sit beside The Father,
In The Kingdom vel to come. ."

T Lorenzo Dow, the celebrated itinerant
preacher, once came across man who
was deeply lamenting that his axe had been
stolen. Dow told the man If he would come
to meeting with him he would find his axe.
Atthe meeting, Dow had on the pulpit, in
plain sight, big stone. Suddenly in the
middle of the sermon, he stopped, took up
the stone, and said Gan axe was stolen in
this neighborhood last night, and if the man
who took it don't dodge, l will hit him on
the forehead with this stonep at the same
time making violent effort TO throw it. A
person present was seen 10 dodge his head,
and proved TO be the guilty party.

Ere broke ont about 3D. o'clock this morning,
in two story brick building, in rear of Johnson s
new Hall. which communicated to and rapidly de-
stroyed that and the adjoining building. The
buildings burnt, only separated from the beau
tful and spacious Hall lately erected by Wm. John
son, Esq, by six foot lane, aud many fears were
at one time entertained for the safety of that I'M
mense building. The houses burnt were connect
ed with and in rear Of the large clothing store of
A. Seldner Co.. whose stock was considerably in
tured by being removed. Seldner was sufficiently
insured to prevent loss The two buildings were
insured in the Mutual. The fire was the work of
an incendiary.
The stores under Johnson's Hall are all occI-
pied-one by the "Bee Hive" for dry goods, the
other two by c. Schwsrzkopf rs a Fancy, and J. J.
Foster as Dry Goods store, and present magnif-
cent appearance. This hall is situated upon the
site Of the old City Hotel used during the fever of
1856, as a hospital, and subsequently burnt.
1t is needless to say that our fremen were out
and done their duty on the above occasion, for the
efficiency Of the Norfolk lremen Ia too well known
