to work by reward or kindness than by

that as q race they will not do at least as

YOUNG MEN.

Our young men are painful study. As
they lounge about the street with bold,
leering faces, poisoning the air with oaths,
or whirl madly along behind lashed hor-
ses, or loom up dimly amid the smoky
glare of the haunts of folly, sin and
shame, it is sickening to think that with
them rests the future Of the country, and
in them lies its hope 1t is no wonder
that the hearts Of fathers and mothers
and sisters are filed with dread and griet
No wonder that the perpetual and earn
est advice to the young man is to go into
g ladies society" The advice is good -
There is positive safety for him in the So
ciety Of modest, gentle, kindly and SEN
sible girl, There is comparative safety
for him in the company of a vain, gig
Cling, trifing girl. The most empty-head-
ed and empty-hearted of coquettes is a
more harmless companion for him than a
cursing, tipplirg fellow, who thinks all
manner of Stiffness and sin manly, and
will travel fast, although hell yawns at
the end of the road Yes, your young
mans salvation is in the sweet smile and
voice, the beautiful graces and accom-
plishments of some fair creature, attrac-
tive alike in mind and body.
But your young man dare not go and
see a young woman he fancies, and make
friend and companion of her.
Will not all the MRS. Grundies think
and say it means something, and imned-
lately and vigorously set to work to whis-
per their suspicious loud enough for the
world-including the respective families
Of the young persons-to hear them Is
not your young man firt, a desperate
fellow in whom there is danger, if he is
known to go to see half dozen girls at
the same time Has not this propriety
which pervades our fine modern life some
thing to do with terrible outlawry and
viciousness Of the young men? Has not
rigid, ghastly etiquette driven them from
the parlor to..the rnm-shop and worse p

A rebel paper in the interior of Mis-

An instance of filial affection among the
Pinto Indians we find recorded in Ne

Lost Time.

=
How much do young ladies learn at
school for which they never find any use
in after life, nor is it possible from their
circumstances they ever should. Let the
hours spent on music by those who have
no ear, upon drawing by those who might
almost be said to have no eye, upon Ian
guage by those who never afterwards
speak any but their mother tongue, be
added together, year after year, and an
aggregate Of wasted time will present it
self sufficient to alarm those who are SEN
sible of its value, and of the awful re-
sponsibility of using it Alright.
When we meet in society with that
speechless, inanimate, ignorant, and use
less being called "a young lady just
come from school," it is thought q suffi-
cient apology for all her deficiencies that
she has, poor thing, just come from school
This implies that nothing in the way of
domestic usefulness, social intercourse, or
adaptation to circumstances, can be ex-
pected from her until she has had time to
learn it. g Poor thingi she has just come
home from school-what can you expect2"
is the best commentary can offer.--Mrs
Ellis.
