as a store, and the latter part of the
time as dwelling house, he having fit-
ted it up for that purpose 1t does
not appear that he did much business
as a physician after his removal to st.
Adams, but limited his attention TO
the druggist business for a while,
but subsequently extended it to dry
goods and groceries. Some years Ia
ter he was apartner of n. w Kingman
in the mercantile business During
the existence of the partnership they
built tho "Gleaner," the first boat that
passed through the Champlain canal
to New York, as we have before men
toned. He was very attentive to his
business, remarkably prudent in all
his contracts and engagements, lived
economically, and steadily advanced
il property and responsibility. For
some years before his death, he in n
great measure, retired from the mer-
camille business, and employed his
time in experimenting farm lying
near his residence, on which his son
now lives. He died in 1852 in conse-
quence Of a cancer on his face. His
last illness was painful; but he bore
his sufierings with christian patience
and resignation.
Dr. Hoyt was a very moral END
temperate man, and very conscien.
tious in his notions of right ano
wrong; honest and fair in all his deal
ings, and pupctihous in the perfor
nance OF his religious duties. IL
was not reputed to be very public
spirited in matters which related t.
the prosperity of the village; bu
manifested no unwillingness to do hi
part in the support OF the poor, an'
in contributions for what be deemed
strictly religions objects Indeed, h,
was 10y no means illiberal in the sup

Rules for Home Education.

The following are worthy of being
printed in letters of gold, and being
placed in a conspicuous position IN
every household:
l. From your children's early his
tory inculcate the necessity of instant
obedience.
,. Unite frmness with gentleness.
Let your children always understand
that you mean exactly what you say.
3. Never promise them anything,
unless you are sure you can give them
what you promise.
4. If you tell a child to do anything
show them how to do it and see that
it is done.
5. Always punish your children for
wilfully disobeying you, but never
punish them when you are angry.
6. Never let then perceive that they
can vex you or make you lose your
self command.
7. Never smile at any Of their ac-
tons of which you do not approve,
even though they are somewhat
amusing.
s. If they give way to petulance and
temper, wait till they are calm, and
then gently reason with them on the
improperly of their conduct,
8. Remember that little present
punishment, when the occasion arises,
is much more effectual than the
threatening Of great punishment
should the fault be renewed.
10. Never give your children any
thing because they cry for it.
II On no account allow them to
do at one time what you have for
hidden under the same circumstances
at another.
II. Teach them that the only sure
and easy way to appear good, IS to be
good.
10. Accustom them TO make THEN
little recitals the perfect truth.
IA Never allow tale-bearing.
1G. Teach them that se.f-denial, M
self-indulgence, is the appointed anC
sure method of securing happiness

THE DIFFICULTY-The Montgom-

white (fgures) the reasons of its
strenuous opposition, frsttos the Con-
stitutional amendment, aud now to
the reconstruction law. OF the fifty
two counties in Alabama, sixteen
have negro majorities, and in the
whole State it estimates that if all the
whites voted they would exceed the
blacks BY only II 1, 1872. but the new
law, it reckons, will exclude at least
$1,000 white voters, giving the colored
voters majority of nearly 5000 in
the State. And though they win not
all vote one way, the Huntsville Con-
vention has proved that neither will
the whites all vote together. The
Radicals and loyal leaguers in Ala
bama claim 10000 white votes. Even
If they have 10000, the bill insures
