"The Boys ROOm.'

A friend recently took me through
her children's apartments. First, we
were shown the a." girls room," pleas
ant back chamber in the upright part
Of the house. A new rag carpet COW
cred the floor, the beds were furnished
with pretty patchwork quilts, while
wash-stand, mirror, and chairs complet-
ed the furniture. 1t looked quite inyit.
ing, though vases of flowers, pictures,
and books would have increased its at
tractiveness.
Then my friend led me through the
"boy's room," which was IN theawing.
"Quite contrast" was my mental
comment as we entered the low un-
carpeted apartment-no mirror, no
bathing convenicnces, nothing save two
beds with faded quilts, unpresentable
elsewhere, and one ei.air forthree boys.
And this is not solitary, excep-
tional case. Almost universally among
farmers, Gndeed among families gener-
ally,) little or nothing is done to render
boys rooms pleasant and attractive to
them. True, they spend few waking
hours there, but even going in and out
of pleasant, tidy room every day has
n great influence upon the character.
Boys are more careful not to litter a
carpet than floor, therefore carpet
will tend to cultivate in them order and
neatness. They will have more self
respect and be more respectful to others
if they come down in the morning with
hair neatly brushed and clean teeth,
than with sleepy, unwashed eyes, and
hair Ia porcupine, therefore furnish
there rooms with toilet appliances.
Mothers, buy some pretty prints to
hang in their rooms; give them a table
with neat cover, mt least chair each,
and in summer it will be trifing trouble
to cut fresh glass of flowers every
two or Three days. The boys may
scarcely seem to notice these things,
but they have their good influence.
Almost imperceptibly the surround
ings modify the character. / doubt
not the influence, from early years to
maturity, of pleasant room with q
few well chosen books and''picturcs
would be more beneficial would tend
more to enncble, to cultivate both in
tellcct and moral nature, than the year
or two of" schooling" at ah academy,
which farmers are so generally ambi-
tious to give their sons. People think
to little of the daily and hourly cduca-
tors of children. The house, the flow
cr-garden,the yard, the family, the in
innate friend, arc all teachers; take
care, mothers; that the teachers be pure,
true, ennobling. -"

The Coperhead Praycr.

O Lord Of Hosts. Thou'rt we'll aware III
We seldom bow the knee in prayer.
'Tis only when in trouble sore
That We thy mercy do impiore;
IT'S but when out Of office, we
Ask any odds. o God. Of thee,
And such being our condition now,
We feel constrained to humbly bow,
And will our many crimes confess,
If thou Wilt only deign TO blesa,
We do confess ourselves most base
And servile o: the human race;
That we delight in deeds Of knavery,
Treasonable acts and human slavery;
Are seret foes and midnight cliquers,
Loud mouthd drawling office seekers;
And even worse than this are We
We are secret foes TO our country?
Still we shall act the part more wise,
And cloak ourselves in loyal guise,
Till we can hail the happy hour
When we again shall have the power.
Then we can lay aside disguise.
And do much more than sympathize
With rebels, who are bound 10 sever
The Union IA it was, forever,
When out of office, were persistent
In evil abuse AMI inconsistent;
At everything we rant and rail.
And, with invectives vile. assail
Our honest rulers and defenders,
And brand them all as base pretenders.
Striving from motives foul and blse,
To bring them into foul disgrace.
IT'S by this course their power we sunder,
And thereby get the public plumber,
OF which we have handy had ration
Under this cursd Administration
'Tis this that makes them growl
And bout the war make such howl.
For, Lord, thou knowest how strong we feel
Inclined the public funds TO steal.
To gain the next administration,
o Lord, Thou knowest is our salvation.
Therefore. do Thou hear our petition,
And aid us in our hellish missionl
Assist. . Lord oil our stump-speakers,
Bar-room brawlers and office seekersl
May they en extra gift receive,
And honest men their lies believesl
Help every Copperhead and traitor,
Whether soldier or speculator.
May they not cease their evil doing.
To plunge the country into ruin;
For thereupon our hope depends
Ia accomplish our unholy ends.
Give power to rebels in the field,
Ahd grant that they may never yield
A rod of soil to Northern knaves
Except it be to make them grayesl
May they resist the armed host;
That doth invest by land and coast,
Their sacred homes and their fire sides!
And drive them back with rapid strides
And may they thus hold out until
OF war the people get their fill
And raise aboud their voice for peace,
And swear this wicked war shall oeasel
All these will aid us in our tolls
And give to us the power and spells.
Now Ltrl, we trust that thou viii hear
And TO this prayer bow DOWN thine ear.
'1is asking much Of Thee, tbs true.
But what in thunder can we dol-Amen.

FEMALE RIoT IN GREENFIELD ONO

FEMALE Riot IN GREENFIELD ONO
-PUTTING Down RUM,-Too much
rum was "put down. the throats of the
young men of Greenfield, Ohio, so the
ladies thought, and therefore few
days since they resolved to put down
all the rum there was in town, cat one
fell swoop," as Macduff said of his
chickens. They held n meeting on
Mouday-washing day-7and passed
resolutions denouncing intemperance;
and in the afternoon of the same day
they sailed forth, some dozens strong,
armed with hatchets, axes and bright
eyes, and called at Newbeck's saloon.
Newbcck was valorous man, for dis
cretion is the better part of yalor; he
had shut up his saloon; but the ladies
opened it in short order They smash
ed in window; then one of them got
in, in the most graceful manner, and
unbolted the doors, when the ladies
made descent on the kegs and bot
ties, and the way old mother Earth
drank beer and "f; rty rod" was enough
to make her stagger ifanyyhing would.
Then the ladies" smashed in tho doors
Of Einn's drugstore, near by, and split
all its liquors. The Mayor came on
the scene at this juncture, and made
quite a pretty figure in the performance
dramatically considerably reading
the riot act; after which he went home
and the ladies went on with their bigh
old bust" After having "bursted" all
the rest Of the liquor in town, they re-
tired OF their laurels. The whole Will
age has smelt of whiskey ever since
Shortly after, suits for damages were
comrhenced against the ladies blythe
despoiled, and forty-seven of the dear
creatures, were accordingly arraigned
and held to trial in sums Of from 800
to $4OO to answer in the Common
Pleas i'm October.
