School-Room Etiquette.

Manners react upon the mind that produ-
Co.'S them, Just as they themselves are reacted
upon by the dress in which they appear. 1t
used to be saying among the old school gen.
tlemen and ladies that courtly bow could
not be made without IL handsome stocking and
slipper. Then there is connection more sa-
cred still between the manners and affections.
They act magiially upon the springs Of feel
ings. The spinal cord is a Geographic wire
of a hundred ends. But whoever imagines
legitimate manners can be taken up and laid
aside put on and off, for the moment, has
missed their deepest law. Doubtless there
arc artificial manners, but only in artificial
persons. A French dancing master, Mon
seur Turveydrop, can manufacture deport-
meDt for you, and you can wear it, but not
till your mind has condescended to the Tur-
veydrop level and then the department only
faithfully illustrates the character again.
A noble and attractive everyday bearing
comes Of goodness, Of sincerity, Of refine
ment, and these are bred in years, not mo-
ments The principle that rules your life is
the true posture-master. Sir Philip Sidney
was the pattern to all England OF a perfect
gentlemen, but then he was hero that, on
the f=ld Of Zutphen, pushed away the cup of
cold water from his own feyered and parched
lips, and held it out to the dying soldier at
his side. II lofty sentiments habitually make
their home in the heart, they will beget, not
perhaps a Fictitious and finical drawing-room
etiquette, but the breeding Of genuine and
more royal gentility to which no simple, no
qou1sq heart will refuse its homage. Chill
dren are not educated till they catch the
charm that makes gentleman or lady. A
coarse and slovenly teacher, a vulgar and
and boorish presence, munching apples or
chesnuts at a recitation like squirrel, pock-
citing his hands like mummy, projecting his
heels nearer the armament than his skull, like
a circus clown, and dispensing American sa-
Iva like member Of Congress, inficts
wrong upon the school-room, for which no
scientific attachments are an offset. An edu-
Gator that despises the resources hid in his
personal carriage, deserves, on the principles
of Swedenborgs retributiOn, simi1i0 simih-
bus to be passed through pandemonium OF
Congressional bullying.-ReU. f. L. HIM.

Life.

How truly does the journey of single
day, its changes and its hours, exhibit the
history Of humane life We rise up in glo-
rious freshness Of spring morning. The
dews of night, those sweet trees of nature, are
hanging from each bough in the refreshing
morning Our hearts are beating with hope,
and our frames are buoyant with health
We see no cloud, we fear no storm, and with
our chosen aud beloved companions cluster
ing around us, we commence our journey
Step by step, the scene become more lovely :.
hour by hour, our hopes become brighter. A
few of our companions have dropped away
but in the multitude remaining, and the beau
ty OF the scenery, their loss is unfelt Sud-
denly we have entered upon new country.
The dews of the morning are exhaled by The
fervor OF the mid day sun; the friends that
started with US are fast disappearing. Some
remain, but their looks are cold and estrang.
ed others have lain down to rest, but no
faces are smiling upon us; and new hopes
are reckoning us on. Ambition and fame
are before US, but youth aud affection are be-
hind u.s. The scene is more glorious and
brilliant, but the beauty and freshness OF the
morning have faded, and forever. Onward
and onward we 60 the horizon of happiness
and fame recedes as we advance to it, tho
shadows begin to lengthen, and the chilly
airs Of evening are usurpiug the MONDAY.
Still we press onward the goal is not yet
won, the haven not yet reached The orb
Of hope that cheered us on, is sinking 10 the
west our limbs begin to grow faint, our
hearts to grow sad we turn our gaze upon
the scenes that we have passed but the shad-
ows of the twilight have interposed their vale
between us; we look around for the familiar
faces; tho companions Of our travel, but we
gaze in vain to find them; we have out
stripped them all in the race after pleasure
and the phantom has fed and caught, in
land Of strangers, in sterile and inhospita-
bic country, the night time Overtakas us;

STATE OF VERMONT, In Probate Court, held at
WASHINGTON DISTRICT, S. Montpelier, in and for said
District on the 8lst day of July A. D. 1860
RA lDE, Guardian of Orion A. Pearce, minor residing
in Calais in said District makes application to said
Court for license sell all the real set out to said
ward heir of Stephen Pearce late of said Calais de-
ceased, representing that the sale of said estate and
the investment of the proceeds of such sale in
real estate would be conducive to the interest of his said
ward.
Whereupon is ordered by said Court that said appli-
cation be referred to the 2lst day of August A. D. 1862
at the Probate Office in Montpelier for hearing and decis-
ion thereon and is further ordered that all persons
terested be notified hereof by publication of notice of
this application and orders thereon three weeks

peer before said time of hearing, that they may appear

ATTENTION TO LITTLE THINGs.-Mr, Trv-
ing, in his life OF Washinton, says that great
and good man " was careful of small things"
bestowing attention on the minulest affairs of
his household as closely as upon the most inn
portant concern Of the Republic The edit
or of the Merchants Magazine, in speaking
of this fact says: mo man ever made a
fortune or rose to greatness in any depart
ment, without being " careful of small things"
As the beach is composed of grains of sand,
as the ocean is made up Of drops of water, SO
the millionaire's fortune is the aggregation of
the profits of single adventures often inconsid-
cradle in the amount. Every eminent mer-
chant, from Girard and Astor down has been
noted for his attention to details Few dis
tinguished lawyers have ever practisd in the
courts who have not been remarkable for q
similar characteristic. 1t was one of the most
striking peculiaritios Of the first Napooon's
mind. The most petty details of his house.
hold expences, the most trivial facts relating
TO his troops, were, in his opinion, as worthy
OF his attention as the tactics of battle, the
plans OF campaign, Of the revision of code.
Demoshenes, the worlds unrivaled orator.
was as anxious about his gestures Of inton-
atons as about the texture of his argument
and its garniture of words. Before such
great examples, and in tho very highest
walks Of intellect, how contemplate the con.
duct of the small minds who despise small
things"

Home.

Home: it is little word it has its own
interests, its own laws, its own difficulties
and sorrows, its own blessings and joys. II
is the sanctuary of the heart, where the al
iections are cherished in the tenderest rela-
tons, where heart is joined 10 heart, and love
triumphs over all selfish calculations. 1t is
the training school of the tender plants,
which in after years are to yield flowers and
fruits to parental care. 1t is the fountain
whence come The streams which beautify and
enIiven social life.
If any man should have home, it is the
man of business, He is the true working
man Of the community. The mechanic has
his fixed hours, and when these have run
their course, he may, ere the day closes, dis.
miss all anxiety as his labors ends, and seek
the homo circle. Comparatively little has
been the tax on his mind, and not much more
on his physical system, as he learns to take
all easy. But the man of business is under
a constant pressure. His is not a ten hour
system, with an interval of rest but he is
driven onward and onward early and late,
without the calculation of hours. He must
be employed. In the earnestness Of compe,
tition-in the complexity of modern modes
of businoss-in the fluctuations which fire..
quenty occur-in the solicitous dependence
on the fidelity and integrity Of. others he
has no leisure moments during the day.
With mind necessarily under exciting en-.
gagements, and body without its appro
pirate nutriment, he may well pant for home
and hail the moment when he may escape
from his tolls to seek its quiet, and its affec
ton and con6dence.-Ls Ferris.

Christ's Sorrows.


CHRIST had his sorrows, when he shed
His tears, 0 Palestine for thee
When all but weeping women fed,
In his dark hour of agony.
Christ had his sOrTows-so must thou,
If thou wilt tread the path be trod-
O then like him, submissive bow,
And love the sovereignty Of God!
Christ had his ioys-but they were not
Thejoys the son of pleasure boasts
u no twas when his spirit sought
Thy will, thy glory, God of Hosts
Christ had his joys--and so hath he
Who feels his spirit in his heart
Who yields, o God his all to thee,
And loves thy name for what thou art
Christ had his fricnds-his eye could trace
In the long train of coming years,
The chosen children of his grace,
The full reward of all his tears.
These are his friends--and these are thine,
If thou to him hast bowed thy knee;
And where these REASONED millions shine,
Shall thy eternal mansion be

Noble Sentiments.

This is an agreeable world, after ALL IF
we would only bring ourselves to look at the
Subjects that surround US in their true light,
we should see beauty whero We behold de-
formity, and look and listen 10 harmony
where VIC heard nothing but discord. To be
sure, there is a great deal of vcxation and
anxiety to meet--we cannot sail on a sum-
mer sea forever, yet, if we preserve a calm
eye and steady hand. we can SO trim our
sails and manage our helm, as TO avoid the
quicksands and weather Storms that threaten
shipwrcck. We are members of one great
family; we are travelling the same load and
shall arrive at the same goal. We breathe
the same air, are subject to the same duty
and shall lie down upon the bosom of our
common mother. 1t is unbecoming then
that brother should hate brother; it is not
proper that friend should deceive friend it
is not right that neighbor should deceive
neighbor.
We pity that man who can harbor cnmity
against his fellows; he loses half the enjoy.
ment Of life he embitters his own existence
Let us tear from your eyes the coIored me-
dunn that invests with the green hue of jeal.
ousy and suspicion; turn deaf car to scan
DIAL; breathe a spirit of charity from your
hearts; let the rich gushings of human kind
ness swell up as a fountain, SO that the gold
en- age will become no fiction, and the is
lands of the blessed bloom in more than Hy.
pernian beauty.
