Drinking among Young Men.

The Philadelphia Sun says truly that
indiscriminate drinking among young
men, eventually makes its mark upon
the population of our cities. We can
see it already betraying itself in the
rising generation. 1t is impossible for
any man to drink even pure liquors six
or seven times day without suffering
severely in constitution. This love Of
drink and bar rooms is every day in.
creasing. Every day sees our youth
becoming more and more the victims
of this habit, and nine times out of ten
it is our best intellect and most prom.
ising young men that gets into the
habit, for we really think it is more .
habit than passion. 1t is no love OF
joviality that tempts them, except in q
few cases. 1t is not the hot exhuber-
ance of the youth. 1t is not the eva.
nescent impulse of the gay young fel-
low who is sowing his wild oats. 1t is
as has been said, a cold, deliberate
habit. No atmosphere of recklessness
surrounds the drinking groups, except
on occasions; and no peals of merri.
ment atones for the act by proving th at
it is at least unusual. A grim and
melancholy air prevades each counte-
nance. The drinks are poured out,
glasses are touched with . loathsome
air OF custom, and each man swallows
his portion with the same impressive
countenance he would wear if he were
drinking a glass of plain water. All
tie concomitants that partially redeem
or excuse drinking, as far as it can be
redeemed or excused, are wanting in
this sad and formal ceremony.

The Little Boy that Died.
BIZ JOSHUA d. ROBINSON.

am all alone in my chamber now,
And the midnight hour is near,
And the fagot's crack and the clocks dull tick
Are the only sounds hear;
And over my soul, in its solitude,
Sweet feelings of sadness glide:
For my heart and my eyes are full when thinl
Of the little boy that died
went one night to my fathers house
Went home to the dear ones all,
And softly opened the garden gate,
And softly the door of the hall.
My mother came to meet her son,
She kissed me, and then she sighed,
And her head fell on my neck and she wept
For the little boy that died.
And when gazed on his innocent face,
As still end cold he lay,
And thought what lovely child he had been,
And how soon he must decay
"Oh Death thou lovelest the beautiful
In the woe of my spirit cried,-
For sparkled the eyes, and the forehead was fair
Of the little boy that diedl
Again will go to my fathers house
Go home to the dear ones all,
And sadly Pn open the garden gate.
And sadly the door of the hall.
l shall meet my mother, but never more
With her darling by her side;
But she'll kiss me and sigh and weep again
For the little boy that died
shall miss him when the flowers come
In the garden where he Played
shall miss him more by the fire-side
When the flowers have all decayed.
shall see his toys and his empty chair,
And the horse he used to ride;
And they will speak, with their silent speech,
Of the little boy that died.
| shall see his little sister again
With her playmates about the door,
And I'll watch the children in their sports,
As never did before
And if, in the group, see child
That's dimpled and laughing-eyed,
I'll look to see if it may not be
The little boy that died.
We shall go home to our Fathers house
To our Fathers house in the skies,
Where the hope of our souls shall have no bligh
And our love no broken ties;
We shall roam on the banks of the River of Peact
And bathe in its blissful tide;
And one of the joys of our heaven shall be
The little boy that died!
And therefore, when am sitting alone,
And the midnight hour is near,
When the fagot's crack and the clocks dull ticl
Are the only sounds hear;
Oh, swete DER my soul, in its solitude,
Are the feelings of sadness that glide;
Though my heart and my eyes are full when thinl

Beautifying your Homes.

Every man should do his best to own
home. The money which he car
spare ought to be invested in dwell.
ing where his family can live perma.
nently. Viewed as = matter of econo-
my, that is important not only because
he can ordinarily build cheaper than
he can rent. but because of the expense
caused by frequent change of resi-
dence. A man, who, in early life,
builds home for himself and family,
will save thousands of dollars in the
course of twenty years, besides avoid
| ing the Inconvenience and troubles of
removals. Apart from this, there is
something agreeable to our better ma
ture in having home that we can call
our own. 1t is form of property that
is more than property. 1t speaks to
our heart, enlists the sentiments, and
ennobles the possessor. The associa-
tions that spring up around it as the
birthplace of children-as the scene
of life's holiest emotions-as the sane
tuary where the spirit cherished its
purest thoughts, are such as all value,
and whenever their influence is exert
ed the moral sensibilities are improved
and exalted. The greater part of our
happiness of to-day, is increased by
the place we were happy on yesterday,
and that, insensibly, scenes and cir
cumstances gather up \ store of bless
edness for the weary hours of the
future
=.
On this account We should do all in
our power to make home attractive
Not only should we cultivate such tenn
pers as serve to render its intercourse
amiablo and affectionate, but we sho'd
strive to adorn it with those charms
which good sense and refinement SO
easily impart to it. We say easily,
for there are persons who think that
home cannot be beautifed without
considerable outlay of money. Such
people are in error. 1t costs little to
have neat flower garden, to surround
your dwelling with those simple beau
ties which delight the eye far more
than expensive objects. IT you will
let the sunshine and dew adorn your
yard, they will do more for you than
any artist. Nature delights in beauty.
She loves to brighten the landscape
and make it agreeable to the eye. She
hangs the ivy around the ruin, and
over the stumps Of the withered tree
twines the grateful vine. A thousand
arts she practices to animate the scenes
and please the mind. Follow her ex-
ample, and do for yourself what she is
always laboring to do for you. Beau
ty is divine instrumentality. 1t is
one of Gods chosen forms of power.
We never see creative energy without
something beyond mere existence, and
hence the whole universe is teacher
and inspirer of beauty. Every man
was born to be an artist, 30 far as the
apprehension and enjoyment of beauty
is concerned; and robs himself of one
of the precious gifts of his being, if
he fail to fulfill this beneficial purpose
of his creation.

Advice.


We must feel ere we can pity,
We must long before we pray,
We must know the need of comfort
Ere we cheer another's way. 1fT
Art thou then the only mourner?
Throbs no beating heart but thine?
Does the earth's green surface never
Hide deed and wealthy mine? A'e
Know ye not what wonderous structures
Grow beneath the rolling seas!
Coral reefs, in hidden natures,
Rise as silently as these
May be that thy strength of purpose
Might uplift some sinking heart,
And the ray, to thee returning, no
A refracted light impart.
For tits strange we should have power
Oft to give another peace,
While We vainly bid the anguish EagH
OF our own vex'd spirit cease.
