management of household. IA their

The FIRE -SIDE.-The frs-side is sem
mary Of Infinite importance. It is import
ant because it is universal, and because the
education it bestows, being woven in with
the woof of childhood, gives form and color
to the whole texture of life. There are
few who can receive the honors of college.
but all are graduates of hearth. The learn
ing of the university may fade from the
recollection, its classic lore may moulder in
the halls of m emory; but the simple lessons
OF home, euamellad upon the heart OF
childhood, defy the rust Of years, and out
live the more mature but less vivid pictures
of after days. So deep, so lasting, indeed I,
are the impressions of early life. that you
often see a man in the imbeclity of age
holding fresh in his recollection the events
of childhood, while all the wide space be-
tween that and the present hour is blasted
and forgotten waste. You have perchance
seen an old and half obliterated portrait,
and in the attempt to have it cleaned and
you may have seen it fade away,
while a brighter and q much more perfect
picture, painted beneath, is revealed to
view. This portrait, first drawn upon the
the csuvass, is no inapt illustration of youth;
aud thought may be concealed by som 8,
after design, still the original traits will
shine through the outward picture, giving it
tone while fresh, aud surviving it in decay.

INDIAN SUPERsTITIoNs.-The Indians be.
lievs tn at the thunder is huge bird, with
green back and gray breast, and that the
Tapping of his wings causes the thunder

birds of Jovs, who carried the thunder in
their claws) They imagine that the hea-
vens are supported by four large poles. re-
milling large trees; that the big bird lives
in the west, and is only heard when flying
east. This is easily accounted for by the
fact Of their storms almost invariably com -
ing from the west. They have super
stitious fear of the aurora borsalis. which
they call the medicine fire. They believe
that it has the power OF rendering them
