The RlsIsG GENERATION. - We
have often deprecated the system
Of training which multitudes Of
children receive. We turn in vain
for q spot where childhood 10 pro-
porly trained; where il il respect
cd AZ childhood and allowed to be
childhood. In solitary instances,
perhaps, we might find families who
understand what is due TO infancy
and the wants Of nature demand for
the growing child. But they arc
few and far between. Children,
now q days are looked upon az 80
many puppets on which to display
lace, je wells, gimcrackery, and the
last new modes In hounce and
whalebone. Corsetted, be starched,
be furbelowed, and bidezened of,
they look like 80 many men and
women grown down, until even in
face and conversation they lose the
freshness and simplicity of child
hood in the monkeyisms Of grown
up folly. What of childhood may
be left in them-these miniature
cards Of fashions crushed out Of
them by the idea Of being little
bellies and beaux, by miniature fir
tations, among which their time is
spent in vieing, to the utmost par
ticular, with the afcctations, rival
ries, jcalousies, and appointments
making of their elder, though not
models.
Turn where we will, childhood is
abused. They are allowed their own
way; they become men and women
before they have passed the thresh-
hold Of youth; they have no respect
for seniors, and are as mannerless
as bears. They have indoctrinated
into them false views and false no
tions of society; they are pulled up
with pride and conceit; they are
trained into fops and dolts by fash
ionable mammas and indulgent
pappas, as animals are trained by
show masters-for exhibition. What
then are we to look for from the
coming age? Naught elese but
the follies, extravagances, debau-
cherries and depravities Of the pres
emit age will be increased to a four
fold degree. The next generation
will truly illustrate the visiting
the sins Of fathers upon their chill
dren.'

TALKING AND WRfrfna.-A man
may never know that he has read
until he has either talked about IL or
has written about II. Talking aud
writing are digestive processes which
are absolutely essential to the mental
constitution Of the man who devours
many books. But IL is not every man
that can talk. Talking implies FIRST
of all readiness on the part of the
speaker, and next sympathetic list
eper. IL is, therefore, a digestive
process, the most difficulty, if il is the
most rapid in its operation.
Writing lisa different affairs man
may take his own time aud do IL, aud
not require a reader--be cau be his
own reader. II issp easier, although
more farmal process Of digestion than
talking. II is 10 everybody's power
and everybody who reads much makes
more or less use Of IL, because, as Ba-
con says, IL he does not write then he

Jews of France, who number in that
country more than one hundred
thousand. For months there has
been great movement among them
which has issued in a printed APP
peal and the formation Of an associa-

for the general emancipation aud
moral progress Of Israelites 2. To
give effectual support to all who
suffer because they are Israelites /;
3. To encourage publications for
the foregoing objects. This ap-
peal is made not only TO the one

but to the scattered millions of Is

of it's aims is to encourage agricul-
ture and all manual arts, as well
as many other objects that are, or

A FiRsr.RArR NorrcR ron AMERICA.
The Liverpool Times, in a review Of
tho commercial relations between
Great Britain and America, says:
The commerce Of America now ex.
tends TO every country, and il possesses
a commercial marine which falls short
only Of that Of the Old Country, and
far exceeds that Of any other nation.
Like the country from which Il sprang,
America offers a safe refuge for the
political exile and an asylum for the
oppressed Of every nation, and the
ample shield Of its protection extends
over the humblest citizens in the most
distant region Of the earth. The To-.
dundaut labor aud capital Of the Old
World find profitable employment
with this young aud prosperous com.
munity, and adventurous spirits from
all countries, impellej by the desire
for wealth, and crowds flying from
the poverty and tyranny OF their ma
tive lands. merge their political and
natural differences in the proud title
Of citizen of the United States. The
dense forests which in the time Of our
grandfathers were unbroken solitudes,
and the wide prairies which were the
hunting grounds Of savages, arc now
waving corn fields, the capitals of
tlourishug States, and the crowded
seats Of native manufactures, or tho
busy marts Of trade.

A WHALE ATTACKED ny A Sworn
rrsH.-A remarkable scene was wit.
messed by n boats crew belonging to
the island Of Westray about fortnight
ago. IA Gavin Mowatt and his boats
crew, were engaged fishing for cod,
about ak miles from land, TO the East
ward Of Noup Head, they observed n
largo whale Of the sort commonly
known 10 fishermen as the herring hog,
running rapidly toward their boat.
In little time was n violent commo-
ton. The whale leaped about six
feet clear out Of the water, when they
observed that a sword-6sh had struck
its letbal weapon into its body just
behind the large fin. The hugo ami
NAL continued in the greatest distress,
loaping out Of tho water, but obvious
ly getting more feeble, while the
sword-fsh chung closely in spite Of all
lis contortions. During NIL this time.
also, thresher continued to strike the
whale on both sides near its sides
near its middle, and the wounded AMI
NAL continued to bleed profusely
The three creatures passed at some
little distance from the boat, but the
eddies were 80 considerable as to
make it sway not little, though tho
sea was perfectly calm. When it
passed, the whale was putting 40 fee
bly, that he seemed literally gasping
for breath, and the men felt certain
that it must have died in short
time.- Orkney Herald.

Death of s. r. Adams, Esq.

We are panied to announce the death Of
Simeon R. Adams, the widely known editor
and proprietor of the Eastern Clarion newspa-
per. The melancholy event occurred in
Paulding, the place Of his residence, on the
night of the Sd inst.
Mr.. Adams was about fifty years of age.
He was native of Ohio, we believe, but had
resided in Mississippi for more than twenty
five years. We believe he published paper
for a short time at the commencement of his
journalistic career in this State, at Yazoo City,
but afterwards established and remained con-
nected with until his death, the journal with
which his name was so intimately associated
in the public mind. This paper he built up
by his tact and energy, under the most ad-
verse circumstances, until it attained wide
circulation and expanded to the proportions Of
a Weekly of the largest class. His columns
contributed largely to the development and
progress of the region Of the State with which
he became identified, and every measure hav-
ing its aim this important end found in him
a willing and efficient friend. His untimely
death will he source Of general and Of deep
regret.
