PROPER EMPLOYMENT OF TIME.-Re-
deeming your time from such dangerous
waste, seek to fill it with employmcnts
which you may review with satisfaction.
The acquisition of knowledge is one. of the
most honorable occupations of youth Tho
desire of it discovers liberal mind, and is
connected with many accomplishments and
many virtues. But although your train of
life should not lead you to study, the course
of education always furnishes proper en-
ploymcnt to IL well disposed mind. What
ever You pursue, be emulous to excel.
Generous ambition and sensibilty to praise,
are, especially at your age, among the marks
of virtue. Think not that any alucnce of
fortune, or an elevation of rank, cxcmpts
you from the duties OF application and in
dustry. Industry is the law of our being;
it is the demand of nature, of reason, and Of
God. Remember, always, that the years
which now pass over your heads leave per-
manent memorials behind them. From tho
thoughtlcss minds they may escape, but
they remain in the remembrance of God.
They form an important part of the register
of your life. They will hereafter bear tes-
timony, either for 'or against you at that
day when for all your actions, but particu-
larly for the employments of youth, you
must give an account to God. Whether
your future course is destined to be long or
short, after this manner it should commences.
and if it continue to be conducted, its con-
clusion at what time soevcr it arrives, will
not be inglorious or unhappy.

CONVERSATIONAL talent for converse
ton has an extraordinary value for tho
common, every day uses of life. Let any
one who has the gift enter the social circle
anywhere. How every ones face brightens
at his entrance. How soon he sets all tho
little wheels in motion, encouraging tho
timid, calling out unostentatiously the re-
sources of the reserved and shy, subsidizing
the facile, and making everybody glad and
happy. To converse we'll it is not necessary
to do all the talking. 1tisnot necessary to
talk with great brilliancy. A man may talk
with such surprising power and splendor as
to awe the rest of the company into silence,
or excite their envy, and SO produce no
warmth and sunshine. He should seek tho 70
art of making others quite at home with him,
no matter how great may be his attainments
or reputation, or how small may be theirs
they then find it insensibly just as natural
and pleasant talking to him as to hear him
talk. The talent for conversation, indeed,
almost more than any other talentin life, re-
quires tact and discretion. Itrequires one to
have most varied knowledge, and to have IL
at instant and absolute disposal, SO that he
can use just as :Iuch, or just as little. an
the occasion demands. 1t requires the
ability to pass instantly and easily from one
subject to another, from the playful to the
serious. from books to men, from the mere
phrases of courtesy to the expressions Of
sentiment and passion.

We found great variety in the apparent
circumstances and condition in life of these
households. There were persons of all
Kinds and descriptions, from the filthy
dalayeur, to the young .feuriste in. mauve,
who was paying for her child to be gentecly
n9rsed nf rs, i, in the country. There were rooms
tirely destitute of paint, white wash, soap,
or water, to gracefully papered and fur
nished apartments, with neat prints hang

IL VIII be seen that there is consider
able difference between the English and
French methods of relieving the poor. In
Great Britain, relief claimed as legal
right, and hence the almost universal
break down of self-rcspcct and self-reli-
ance; while i'll France, relief is more in the
character OF charity. administered ON a
centralized system. What strikes us as an
impressive fact in both cases, is, that {.
high state of civilization, as we call it, pro-
duces somehow or other masses of poverty
and misery in all large seats of population,
which no known contrivance is able to
subdue. France with its alleged irrefigion;
England with its wealth, its intelligence,
it's poor-laws, and it's enormous charities
Scotland with its high sounding religious
and educational prctcnsiOns-arc all alike.
If there be any difference, it is in favor of
France. No abjectness in any city in Eu-
rope sinks to that dismal level of rags and
wretchedness observable in the ftetid alleys
of Edinburgh and Glasgow. What scope
for grand discovery in social economics!

IRISH SOLDIERS IN ABYss1NIA.-With all
her bluster, England is constantly indebted
to Irish valor for her victories. A cotem-
porary says:
The accounts of the storming of Magdala,
which some of the American papers publish
from their special correspondents, show
that the capture of that rocky fortress was
effected by Irish soldiers, who fought with
the headiong valor of their race. Even
some of the English papers condescend to
praise them. The Hants Telegraph states
that the three men who first forced an en-
trance in Magdala were Irishmen-namely !:
No. 3691, drummer Michael 'Nfagner; No.
949, private james Bergin, and ensign
Connor. Magner is described as sa " dimin-
utive" Irishman, who has been in the army
fourteen years. During the assault, he
cleft his regiment, ran up the hill, and
made a clear breach through the stockade,
followed by Bergin, and subsequently by
ensign Connor." How many victories has
Irish valor inscribed on the banners OF
Englapdf How many wrongs, outrages,
and insults has England inflicted ON Ireland
