THE LITTLE 0NEs.-Do you ever think
how much work q child does in a day ?
How from sunrise till sunset the dear lit
tie feet patter round-to us-so aimlessly.
Climbing up here; and kneeling down
there, running to another place, but new
er still. Twisting and turning, rolling,
reaching and doubling, as iftesting every
bone and muscle for future uses. 1t is
very curious to watch it. One who does
may understand the deep breathing of
the rosy little sleeper, as with one arm
tossed over its curly head, it prepares for
the next days gymnastics. Tireless
through the day till that time comes,
as the maternal love that so patiently &C
commodities itself hour after hour, to its
thousand wants and caprices, real OF
fancied.

The Shasta Courier, edited by a loyal
kish American, is not afraid of being out
stripped by the negroes. He says: "If
God has given the power to the negro to
become the equal of, or superior to the
white man, just so sure that superiority
will be recognized by all; and in our opin-
ion, he has not far to 60 to become the
equal of those who are so tender-footed
in refusing equal chances to all in the
race. The negro has been handicapped
long enough. Give him an equal chance,
weight for age and a fair field. We
arn't afraid"

I~srEREsTgNG ExPLoRATIoNs.--Two French
gentlemen have recently explored the
island of SpitzbSEgea in a very com
plete manner. They have measured the
mountains, mapped the coast, examined
the geological formation of the island, its
vegetable products, and its meteorologi-
cal phenomena. They found that the
long day in summer, extending owe sew
eral months, became intensely hot on
account OF the unceasing heat Of the sum-
and that during this period vegetation
sprung UP with luxuriance. The North
Pole is but 600 miles from Spitz6ergen,
and these explorers, with many other
scientific men, think that the pole itself
and the sea supposed to surround 1t can
be reached without much difficulty from
Spitzbergen. Large quantities of float
ing timber cover the waters of the bays
and creeks of the island. With regard
to the great heat of the sun at Spitzber-
gen during the summer, it may be re-
marked that when the French scientific
expeditions were sent out to find the
length of a quadrant of the meridian
upon which the French system of meas
urement is based, the party went to the
Artic circle complained of extreme heat,
whilst the party that visited Quito, I'M
der the Equator, complained of extreme
cold.

Miss MARGARET HowITT, in her last
work, Twelve months with Frederick

illustrating the simplicity of the lower
orders in Sweden. Thus, two servants
were given tickets to 60 to the theatre,
to which they went, and from which they
500 returned. "You were surely not
there 2" asked the mistress. 80, yes"
they answered, 1--WE went to the theatre,
and sat there till suddenly a curtain drew
up and some ladies and gentlemen began
talking together, but as it was on family
matters we felt we were intruding, and
so came home"

are health, comfort and durability. The felt being
