Domestic, Duties.

A knowledge Of domestic duties, says
Mrs. Child, is beyond all price to wo-
man. Every one Of our sex ought to
know how TO sew, and mend, and cook
superintcnd a household. In every sit
uation of life, high or low, this sort
Of fknowlcdge is Of great advantage.
There is no necessity that the gain.
ing Of such information should inter
fere with intellectual requirement or
elegant accomplishment. A well-regu.
lated mind can find time for all. When
a girl is nine or ten years old she should
be accustomed to take regular share
in household duties and feel response
BILE for the manner in which her part is
performed, such as her mending, wash.
ing cups and putting them in place,
cleaning silver, or dusting and arrang-
ing parlors. This should not occasion
ally be neglected whenever she feels it
convenient; she should consider it her
department. When older than twelve,
girls should begin to take turns in su
Pcrintending the household, making
puddings, pics, cakes, etc to learn ef-
fctually to do these things themselves,
and not stand by and sec others do
them, "g. H ..

a number Of little morsols of paper,
upon which he inscribed various sums,

in the general rally around the old

Governor, John Brough, was a life long
Democrat, and both in that State and

break down the barriers of party, and
induce men Of all creeds to unite in
one solid phalanx for grand struggle
for tho Union.
To the honor Of the loyal Democratic
