Mother! watch the little feet
Climbing Ger the garden wall,
Bounding through the busy street,
Ranging cellar, shed, and hall;
Never count the moments lost;
Never nina the time it cost;
Little feet will 60 astray,
Guide tkcm, mother! while you may.
Mother. watch the little hand
Picking berries BY the way,
Making houses in the sand,
Tossing up the fragrant hay;
Never d are the question ask,
"Why to me this heavy task?'
These same little hands may prove
Messengers of light and love.
Mother! watch the little tongue
Prat,liug eloquent and wild;
What is said and what is sung
By The happy, joyous child;
.SCatch the word while yet unspoken,
Stop the vow while yet unbroken;
This same tongue may yet proclaim
blessings in the Sayiour's name.
Motherl watch that little heart
Beating warm and soft for you;
Wholesome lessons now impart;
Keep. oh!keep that young heart true;
Extricating every weed,
Sowing good and precious seed;
Harvest rich you then may see,
Ripening for eternity

ABOUT BEDBUGs. According TO an
article in the last nnmber Of Harper s
Magazine, bed-blgs are an American
invention, and have been exported
from this country to all parts of
Europe, excepting Ireland, where a
bed-bug is never to be found. The
insect msdo lis appearance in En-
gland as early as 1903, when t4o
noble men were "punctured" by them,
and the physicians called in grent
haste. The bug is parasite Of the
bat fam lily, and is SO tenacious of life
that Do degree of cold or beat can
affect it. Fieeze one until you can
break il in two; tbaw the pieces and
they will revive. Freeze the eggs
until CONCEALED in ice; LET them tbaw,
and they will hatch again as usual
Boil both insect and egg and they
will revive again as soon as cool. If
they can get nothing to eat they
will live and propagate on what nour
isbment they NAV derive from the
atmosphere.

1t is a part Of The revolutionary

our Continental contingency is full;

Whatever mems convictions may be- and how
ever honestly they may entertain them, the open
declaration of them, under Northern rule subjects
them at once to the charge of treason Any impu-
taton upon the incorruptible integrity and patri-
otism of Mr.. LINCoLN's Cabinet we have been ad-
monlshed, aemi-officially, is equivalent to treason
against the country. To doubt the proprety of
slaughtering our Southern brethren is a beinous
crime whilst to assert that the war is unholy and
fratrieida and that its prosecution will inevita-
bly, tend to permanently disunite the two sec
tons, is, in the eyes of tire authorities at Wash
ingt0u, an atrocity to be dealt with in the most
rigorous manner. The new code of political ethics
which the LINCOLN Administration has undertaken
to enforce, and TO which no opposition will be
allowcd By the radical Republicans at the North,
not only seeks to place 4 seal upon the lips of
every man who dares to express opinions adverse
to those held by the dominant faction, but ex-
acts of him, at least TACT sanction of measures
that he knows TO be evil, and which, from his in
most soul, lie abhors. Acting upon the theory
that the government is absolute, and that dlssen.
tents must necessarily be traitors g, all the macbi
merry Of despotism has been brought to bear unon
them TO overawe them into silence. Ia one Of his
last speeches, the late Senator DOUGLAS declared
that war was ''disunion," and the only inference
to be drawn from that truthful proposition is
that those who urge vigorous and uncompromis-
ing prosecution of the war are the very men who
are in reality fdlsunionists, and that those only
are sincere patriots who advocate measures of con-
Citation and peace. If war be ndisunion" and
If disunion be treason as the Republicans as.
sure US that it is, then the term "traior" if is
to be applied at all, is justly applicable to every
man who supports the government in its war
measures. This war has led already to the most
Migrant violations Of the Constitution; it hiss
