Children have LllngS.

This fact is either not known to parents,
OR very little regarded. The first thing II
baby wants is fresh air, and plenty Of it.
From the moment child is born, it should
have air and light and neither b, shut up
in dark cold room nor have its head cover
ed up in blanket.
The other morning, making my first call
on lady with an infant, saw heap Of
blankets lying in rocking chair beside the
bed, but there was no baby in sight When
[ inquired for the newly arrived, the nurse
came, and after taking off fold after fold,
;hcre at last was the poor little half-smoth-
cred baby, gasping for breath. Mother and
muse got lecture that time
Returning in an omnibus, u woman got in
with her baby completely enveloped in its
blankets. Perhaps it was none OF my busi-
ness but think it was The baby had as
good Il right to breathe and have the purest
air to lie had as anybody; and as there was
nobody else TO take its part, did.
Madame" said |, "you arc smohering
that child"
She smiled, and shook her head. She did
not believe a word Of it.
You are making it breathe its own breath
over and over ag in ; and no air is fit to breath
but once. [ am physician and can't let
you make your child sick"
She uncovered the babys head. 1t took
a long breath, and if it had been old enough
to talk, and been up in its manners it un-
doubtedly would have said THANK you,
DOCTOR"

Civility is a fortune itself, for courteous
man always succeeds well in life, and that
even when persons of ability sometimes fail.
The famous Duke of Marlborough is a case
in point. 1t was said of him by one contcm-
porary, that his agreeable manners often con-
verted an enemy into friend and, by an
other, that it was more pleasing to be denied
a favor by his Grace, than to receive one
from other men. The gracious manner of
Charles James Fox preserved him from per-
sonal dislike, even at time when he was pc,
litically the most unpopular man in the king
dom. The history of our country is full Of
examples of success obtained by civiity. The
experience of every man furnishes, if we but
call the past, frequent instances where con-
ciliatory manners have made the fortunes OF
physicians lawyers, divines, politicians, mer-
chants, and indeed, individuals of all pure
suits. L. being introduced to stranger, his
affabiity or the reverse, crates iustaniane-
ously prepossession in his behalf, or AVA
kens unconsciously a prejudice against him.
To men, civility is in fact what hearty IS
to woman it is general passport to ia
vor letter OF recommendation written III
language that every stranger understands
The best ofmcn have often injured themselves
by irritabiity and consequent rudeness, as
the creates scoundrels have often succeeded
by their plausible manners. Of two men
equal in other respects, the courteous one
has twice the change for fortune.

A CANDID MIND.-There is nothing sheds
so fine light upon the human mind as can
dor. 1t was called whiteness by the aucents
for its purity; and it has always won the
esteem due to the most admirable of the vir-
tues. However sought for or practised all
felt the power and charms of its influence.
The man whose opinions make the deepest
mark upon his fellow man, whose influence is
tho most lasting and efficient, whose friend
ship is instiuctively sought where all others
have proved taithless, is not the man of bril-
liant parts, or fatterng tongue, or splendid
genius or commanding power; but he whose
lucid candor and ingenious truth transmit the
hearts real feelings pure and without refrac-
ton. There are other qualities which are
more snowy, and other traits that have
higher place in the worlds code Of honor;
bat none wear better, or gather less tarnish
by use, or claim deeper homage in that ST.
lent reverence which the must pay to virtue.

on her emerald robe; when the trees array
themselves in their rich drapory, and buds
and blossoms spring up from earth's cold
bosom when the air is bland and gentle

Study.

There are taoo methods of study; the one
is the studying an author, the other may be
called studying the subject. In the former
case the student proposes to make himself
master of the whole contents of book he
diligently peruscs it, and becomes familiar
with the style, and language, and the septi-
ments Of the writer. By the other method.
he follows up any particular branch of knowl-
edge through all the books in which it may
be found searches in them for every passage
that s TO his purpose, and collects everywhere
the scattered particles Of information. OF
these two methods of seeking knowledge, tho
first is UGH to be preferred. BY diligently
fixing the the mind upon one book at a time,
the intellectual faculties in the three branches
;of apprehension, attention and memory are
exercised, disciplined and improved; whereas,
by the other practice when subject is pur-
sued by the help Of indexes through multi.
tude Of authors, and writers are consulted
only as books of reference, 'uperfciaI, dis
cursive habit of study grows upon the mind,
and the student will be SO far IRON IMPROVING
the three faculties above mentioned, that he
is in danger Of impairing them. Aud no
man of letters can safely trust himself with
with this plan Of study, till he shall have
first diligently wrought into his mind from
habits of accurate attention, by long pratice
of the other.

G?h , Roses Of Earth.

Eve, the mother of mor,als, walked one da L
alone and sorrowfu, on the dcsecratel soil OF
this sinful earth. Suddenly she cspied a
rose tree laden with expanded blossoms, which,
like the blush of dawn, shed a rosy like
upon the green leaves around them. "Ah
cried she, with rapture " is it u deception, or
do | indeed behold even here the lonely ro-
ses of Eden? Already do l breathe from
alar their paridisacal sweetness! Hail gen
tie type Of innocence and joy! Art thou Il
silent pledge that even among the thorns OF
earth an Edcns happiness may bloom e
Surely it is bliss even to inhale the pure fra
GRANGE Of thy flowers! Even while she
was speaking. with her joyous gaze bent upon
the profusions of roses, there spraug up a
light breeze which stirred the boughs Of the
tree; and 10. the petals Of the fall-blown
flowers silently detached themselves, and sank
upon the ground. Eve exclaimed with a
sigh, ALAS! ye also are children of death !
| read your meaning types of earthly joys"
And in mourniul silence she looked upon the
fallen leaves. Soon however, did gleam
of joy tighten up her countenance while she
spake saying, "Still shall you blossom, so
long as they are embodied in the bud be unto
,ne the types Of holy innocence. So saying,
she stopped down to gaze upon the alf;cosed
buds, when suddenly she became aware Of
the thorns which grew beneath them, and her
soul was sore troubled. "Oh," cried she,
:" do yc also need some defence? Do ye in
deed bear within the consciousness of sin
and are these thorns the sympt, ms of your
shame Nevertheless, bid you welcome,
beauteous children Of the spring, as an i'm
age of heavens bright and rosy dawn upon
this thorny earth From the German.

The Old Year.
By CELIA

We stand by the bed of the dying Year,
Watching his breath as it comes and goes
He hath marked his circle hath filled his sphere,
And is looking his last on friends and foes,--
We will bind his brow with fadeless crown,
And with words of peace we will lay him down
We know the old Year hath taken away
Full many treasure from home and hearth;
Hath robbed raven locks or changed to gray
Hath stolen the dimpling smiles of rnirth;
The light of sweet eyes hath dmmed in tear
And fond hopes die with tn. parting Year
The rose he hath blanched on many check
Hath marred the beatty Of many brow
Hath taken the staff from the poor and weak,
And forced the naughty in dust to bow;
He hath borne from our bosoms the loved and dear
And we have not sigh for the dying Year.
But roproach him not in this last sad hour,
For the cloud that darkeued the summer day
If he brought the storm he opened the flower.
And hath given us more than he took away;
There are flowers still left our hearts to cheer,
And To deck the grave of the kind old Year.
He brought us gfts-he hath given us joy
Hath crowned us with plenty, peace and love,
Ills darkest shadows could never destroy
Our trust in the Blcs ed Father above;
And blessings shall hover around the bier
That bears from US the departing Year.
The faint, slow pulse, has ceased to beat
The taper fickers, and pales, and dies
The midnight clock doth the knell repeat
The watch is DER for our weary eyes -
There are partings sadder than this, we fear,
Ere we watch by another dying Year.
