DON'T SHOOT THE BIRDS.

Don't shoot tho birds the warbling birds,
That cheer you with their rsong,
That fll the air with melodies
A bright and happy throngi
That carol forth their native lays
From shrub and lofty limb,
And gaily sing their tuneful strains
From morn till evening dim.
Don't shoot the birds, tho harmless birds,
That come with buds ami flowers,
That soothe tho farmers weary toll
Through summers sultry hours;
That build their nest aud brood their younl
Beside your cottage door,
And linger near from early spring
Till outumn's golden store.
Don't shoot tho birds, the sportivs birds,
That Il DER bill aud plain,
That leave when chilling winter comes,
But soon return again;
That warble out their hymns Of praise
With many gleerul voice,
Which calms the daily cares Of life,
And bids the heart rejoice.

A Delightful Baby.

Lady Tyrawlay, who was very short
sighted, being on a christening visit,
waited for a considerable length of time,
with very much impatience, to see the
child, which was to be brought down to
her. The maid servant in the meantime
entered the apartment, with coalscut
tie, and approaching the fire, near which
her ladyship was seated, she immediate

Of complimenting the family with a

Choosing @ wife.

Manford's Monthly Magazine gives
some advice to young farmers, on the
selection of a wife, worth needing:
Choosing a wife is more important
than choosing a farm. In all its bear
i1gs there is no more important step in
life. There is none that requires more
judgment To be a judge Of a good
horse, COW or farm, is what every farmer
should seek to be. But how much bet
ter to be a good judge of a good wo-
man. How few, even of the married,
properly appreciate good womanly quail
tiles. There are some things the farmer
should consider especially, The first
of these is heaHh. The farmer with a
sickly wife is half undonc. Health and
strength in the farmers wife are as i'm
portant as in himself. Let this be con-
sidered Let the young farmer learn
the conditions Of health, the signs Of
health, and the essentials of health, and
then choose his wife accordingly"

family lived so near us. But on,
Spring it happened that his littl,
daughter Kate had an illness, and fol
many weeks afterward was too delioat,
to 60 out Of doors or play with Other
children. In this state the little in.
valid evinced a singular and persis.
tent desire to have Wish with her
One day Paula took the child in with
her to Mrs. Lethbys, and Kate would
with difficulty be persuaded to let her
60 again; and the next morning came
a petition that Wish might be suffer
ed to 90 and spend that day witch the
ailing little girl, "who frettod after her
continually"
When she returned to us in the
evening we both thought the visit had
done her good. There was more vi
tality in the little face; and its usual
paleness had given place TO delicate
color that we liked to see. But she
was very quiet and silent. and. as she
sat on Paula's knee for half an hour
before her bedtime, she replied chiefly
by gestures to our questions concern
ing her visit. We gathered that she
had been very content there and would
like to go again.
Presently Paula took her away. She
had wished me good night. Her sweet
child-kiss still fingered on my lips. I
resumed my book; but, after ten min
utes' abstracted poring over it, some
memoranda to make, some authorities
to consult from the book-ca in our
room, led me up stairs The room
communicated with the smaller cham
Der where Wish slept The door was
open between the two, and the light
streamed through went and lit the
lamp by the bookcase, and commenced
my search for the needed volume
Paulas voice occasionally sounded from
the inner room, where she was undress-
ing the child. Then I was startled by
the sweet, clear, little voice Of Wish
herself.
"Mamma-I know l'
w hat do you know, darling?"
81 know i'll 1 know who made the
Howers-and the birds-and the sky
''''N bAD + lNsas
She stopped, as if breathless, though
she had spoken slowly, as usual. There
came no answer from the mother. The
silence was again slightly stirred by the
child's voice:
"Why did yoa never tell me Of God?"
Again there was a pause. "Kate asks
God to take care of her, and her mamma
and papa. I will too"
mo, no; not at my knees-not thsre!"
1 heard Paula mutter.
"Is it wrong? Is Wish wrong? Is
God a wrong thing?"
"Hush-hushl Nay, my own darling;
it is not wrong Look up, look up
Mamma cannot bear to see Wish crv."
But the passion Of weeping, so rare
in the child, was not so easily assuagod
Mamma, mammal I thought YOU
would be glad. Wish was so glad. 3"
For a long time I listened to Paula,
as she strove to soothe and console her.
Then I went down, my book in my
hand, and waited for her coming. She
entered the room with the look on her
face that L was prepared to see-the
look that had not rested there for many
years. 1 met her outstretched hands.
and answered the look; and then she
dropped by my side and hid her face.

GOOD ADVICE.

IN reading authors, when you find
Bright passagss that strike your mind,
And which, perhaps, you may have reason
To think Of at another season,
Re not contcnted with the sight,
Buttak them down in black and white:
Such respect Is wisely shown,
That makes another's sense ones own.
In convctsation, when you meet
With persons cheerful and discreet,
That speak or quote In prose or rhyme,
Things or iacetiOus, or sublime,
Observe what passes, aud anon,
When you como home, think thereuponi
Write what occurs, forget % not
A good thing saved g a good thing got
M0les and Qneriel.

Education Of the Idiotio and I'M
beetle Youth of Ohio.
We presume there is not a citizen o f
Ohio that does not feel proud of her
Benevolent Institutions-of the ample
means and facilities provided, by Legis-
latiVe enactments, for tho comfort and
benefit Of the Deaf and Dumb, the
Blind and the Insane. In this feature
perhaps no State in the Union can boast
Of greater munidcence or moro com.
mendable success
The late Legislature amplifed this
munifcent system of benevolenco and
care Of the unfortunate, by providing
for the establishment, on a permanent
foundation, Of an Institution for the ed
ucation of the Idiotic and Imbecile
Youth of Ohio-following in the wake
Of New York and some of the older
Statos, where the system has been thor
oughly tested and found to be of great
practical benefit Gov. Chase was prompt
in tho duties required of him under the
law, and Immediately appointed Hon
Mr. Dennison, Hon Asher Cook and
MS. Townsend, NJ D., as Trustees
and the superintendence has been given
to Dr. r. j. Patterson-a gentleman in
every way eminently qualified for the
responsible position.
The design and object Of this Inst.
tuition, as established by legislative ac-
ton, are to furnish special means of ed
ucation to that portion of the youth of
the State, not provided for in any Of its
other educational institutions. Those
can therefore be received who are Of a
proper attending age, and who are in
other respects suitable subjects as con-
templated by tho law; and for such time
only as shall, in the estimation Of the
Board Of Trustees, suffice to impart all
the education practicable in each partic-
ular case, and in conformity with the
regulations hereinafter specified.
Children between the ages Of six and
fifteen, who are idiotic, or so peculiar,
or deficient in intellect as to be incapa-
BILE of being educated at any ordinary
school, and who are not epjhpt.c, insane,
or greatly deformed, may be admitted by
the Superintendent, with the advice and
counsel of the Executive Committee. ~

SoRRows.-Jean Paul says: "Sor-
rows gather round great souls as storms
DO around mountains; but, like them,
they break the storms and purify the
air Of the plain beneath them. Every
heavy burden of sorrow seems like a
stone hung round our neck, yet they are
often like the stones used by poarl-di-
vers, which enable them to reach their
prize and rise enriched. A small sor-
row distracts; a great one makes us col
teected, as bell loses its clear tone when
slightly cracked, and RECEIVERS it when
the fssure is enlarged"

THE WIFE

On earn to man there is but one
His bsart can love-his soul can own;
Thcdgh myriads Ait before his view,
There is but ono to whom he's true
Jhat one can sway him to and rroi
Can make him drain tho cup Of woe;
Can give him joy or blast his Iilei
And that ones name is simply WIFE.
But in that name a world Is sphered,
A world by all beloved, revered,
Who have the sense to know its worth,
And spurn the gaudy joys of earthi
For that full heart in her dear breast
IL rightly prized-eternal rest
Is not with blisBful sweets more rife,
Than that pure heart a loving wife.
