TINE FOR GRATING TIE APPLE.
The best time is the spring when the
buds are beginning to swell, the scions
for grating having been cut few weeks
previously, and kept in a moist, cool
place, or in box Of damp moss in cool
cellar, so as to be neither shriyeled or
watersoaked. Crafts may be cut and
inserted the same day, if the buds have
not swollen much. Crafts arc sometimes
set much later, but starting SO late they
do not make so good a growth during the
summer.

A Word to Mothers,

Each mother is historian. She writes
not the history of empires or of nations on
paper, but she writes her own history on
the imperishable mind of her child
That tablet and that history will remain
indelible when time shall be no more
That history each mother will meet again,
and read with eternal joy or unutterable
grief in the far coming ages of eternity.
This thought should weigh on the mind
of every mother, and render her deeply
circumspect, and prayerful, and faithful
in her solemn work of training up her
children for heaven and immortality.
The minds of children are very suscep.
tible and easily impressed. A word, a
look, frown, may engrave an impression
on the mind of a child which no lapse of
time can efface or wash out. You walk
along the sea-shore when the tide is out,
and you form characters, or write words
or names in the smooth, white sand which
has spread out 80 clear and beautiful at
your feet, according as your fancy may
dictate; but the returning tide shall 10
few hours wash out and efface forever all
that you have written. Not so the lines
and characters of truth, or error, which
your conduct imprints on the mind of your
child. There you write impressions for
the everlasting good or i'll of your child,
which neither the foods nor the storms of
earth can wash out, nor Deaths cold fin.
gers erase, nor the slow-moving ages of
eternity obliterate. How careful, then,
should each mother be of her treatment Of
her child. How prayerful, and how seri
Gus, and how earnest to write the eternal
truths of God on his mind---those truths
which shall be his guide and teachers when
her voice shall be silent in death, and her
lips no longer move in prayer in his be-
half, in commencing her dear child to her
covenant God. t3 lN9lt

1t is not a poetical subject we propose
now to discourse upon, bat it is prac-
teal one and disguise it as we may, to
ourselves and to the world money is the
subject, at times, of every reasoning be-
ing's meditations and aspirations. We
know Milton describes "Mammon" as
1.-THE least erected spirit that fell
From Heavn; his looks and thoughts
Were always downward bent admiring more
The riches of Heaven pavement, trodden gold,
Than aught divine, or holy, else enjoy'd
In vision beatfc."
Yet Milton exemplifed in his life how
much he priced those Injuries which only
money can furnish to the man of taste
and refinement. The picture Hume paints
Of the theft Milton committed, in appro-
priating to himself the works of art found
in the palace of that martyred King,
Charles l sufficiently refutes any suppo-
sition that the great poet did not value
"6lthy lucre."

With it we can purchase copy of "Para-

with it we can travel to the city, when
wearied of our rural life. Therefore this
dollar is not to be despised for, SO far as
it goes, it is talisman, resembling "Al-

you can, the poaoer of money. Well does
the poet say,
''For 'Greenbacks' provoke the world to arms"
And again,
money and men mutual f,lsehood show;
Men make false money--money makes men so J"
IL Is well also, TOT US TO reflect, when
our covetous ct is on, what money cannot
do. 1t cannot change our natures, and
make the vile man honorable, or the mean
man generous. Money cannot obtain for
us true and disinterested friendship. Sol.
ONION says, eff a man should give all the
substances Of his house for love, it would

king, who was ssthe richest man that ever

houses; planted vineyards, and orchards,
and gardens; got servants, and had great

the heroine it is almost unknown; no
pen has ever traced the story. We pause
not to inquire into the principles that in

with most of her stamp, she beheld the
struggle as one in which liberty warred with
tyranny. Her only son had been taken
in the act of rebellion, and was condemned
by martial-law to death she followed the
officer on whose word his life depended,
to the place of execution, and besought
him to spare the widows stay she knelt
in the agony of her soul, clasped his knees,
while her eyes with the glare of a maniac,
fell on the child beside him. The Judge
was memorable, the transgressor must die.
But taking advantage Of the occasion, he
