cHTLDREN AND FLowEEs.

There seems close connection between
children and fowcrs-the children Of men and
flowers Of the earth. Flowers constitute their
great natural playthings, and the young heart
rrjoiees over the possession Of a bunch of
wayside flowers. And between the unstrained
mind Of the child and the susceptible nature
it the poet there is a strong likeness. As the
child loves, SO loves the poet; childhood and
genius are alike in admiring the grand and
beautiful in nature, and alike regardless Of the
pomp and vanities Of life. The child's pratt
tie and the musics tone speak the praises Of
flowers, rejoicing in their fragrance and color,
and touched with sadness when the color fades
and the odor has departed. The busy people
Of the world, active IN its hard reality, intent
on enterprise and speculation, have little sym
fathy with the childs enjoyment or the poets
sentimenti TO such primrose is yellow prim-
rS'se, nothing more; but.it is more to the child
and more to the poet.-LGdes' Treasury.

Tho Theiving Chivalry.

The rebellion in Virginia was inaHgurated
with even more trcachery and thieving than
that whicb distinguished the Gulf States
She kept her ordinance Of secession secret
while her brigands seized all the vessels that
relying OH her good faith arxI on the legal for
malities that were prescribed before an ordi-
nance of secession could be adopted, were en-
gagged in transporting Virginia products to
maI ket.
OF course these were Northern vessels
Who would ever expect Firginian to own a
ship? Civilized nations give notice of war by
declaration, and by giving foreigners warn
ing 10 remove their property. Virginia keeps
her war ordinance secret while she seizes the
private property of thesauTc nztio1. That is
the difference between Virginia and civil
lied nation. 1t is just about the same distiEc-
tion as that between an honest man and q
thief,
There was not the dignity of highway
robbery in it. 1t was the sneaking secrecy of
the shief. What had the owners of these YES
sells done? They were transporting Virginia
products to market. They were from their
residence supposed to be loyal 10 govern
ment to which Virginia pretended to be loyal
up to that moment. For this the property of
unoffending citizens was seized sfd confisca-
ted. And the Virginians exult like thieves
over the ''swag" that cost them nothing; but
Fthey must suppose the people of the North to
be destitute OF the usual human nature, if these
seizures do not cost Virginia dear before the
account is closed. . ---5..
What private property in Virginia, Of what
ever species or color, is not just as liable to
seizure, destruction or confScatiOn, as these
ships were which Northern men entrusted to
Virginia honor? Where will a war stop which
begins with the seizure Of private property
aggravated by such treachery? What must
be the madness of a psOple who inaugurate a
war against superior power which Justify any
retaliation upon Virginia property.
The Virginia papers describe the hcroisn,
Fof the chivaIrv in stealing on board the steam
ship jamestown, of New York. It has been
reported that two steamships of New York
and Richmond line have been seized The
6rst-ciass ship, Argoy Of maine, of 900 tons
was seized in tho same chivalrous manner.
Ehe Petersburgh Express states that Is ne
grOes Of hev crew were marched to the Rich
mond Jail. Where they will go thence may
readily be concluded A revenue cutter was
also seized m tAs' same manner. These are
acts Of mere piracy. Vipgiuip does NOT pre-
tend to have seeded. Her own,law yet bind:
her to the Union. We should iRe to know
what the Unien men of the Border States
who ago SO l'alcIs lest the defense Of the Gov.
ernment shall be an aggressiouuPcn the South
think of this piracy upon Northern' property
Whatever they think, these seizures will be
a dear bargain to Virginia.. aud to every State
which makes them,-T Cincinnati Gazette.

The natural man is disposed to InRTmuF at

a species of rebellion which ought to be alb
horrcd:
Never complain of your birth, your train

fancy that you could be something. il you Oh

God understands his own plan, and he knows
what you want great deal better than you
do. The very thing that yop most aePFecate
as fatal limitations or distractions, arc pro b
ably what you most want. What you call
hindrance, obstacles, discouragemonts are prob
ably Gods opportunities; and it is nothing new
that the prtient should dislike his medicines,

TIME-TTs IMPORTANCE..

The eloquent Robert Hall thus moralizes
upon this often repeated subject:
'3Fime is the most precious Of all oOF pos
sessions; by far the greatest deposit we have
received, in regard to what depends on its use.
There is nothing in eternity but what spr ings
out Of time. All the good which eternity has
in store, and all the evil, all the promises and
all the thrcatenings Of God in Scripture, oil
will be realized in consequence of, and in pro-
portion to the improvement or abuse of the
present time of our probation. Time is the
arcd of eternity. AT the Judgement the ques-
tion which will decide your destiny, will be no
other than this-how have you spent your
time? And the less there remains of this pre-
cious article, the more valuable it should ap-
pear. The narrower becomes the isthmus
that separates us from eternity, the more time
seems to enlarge itself in moral magnitude
In word, to squander time is to squander
