Women In the middle rank are
brought up with the idea that If they
engage in some occupations, they shall
lose "their position in society" Sup
pose it to be SO; surely it is wiser to
quit . position we cannot honestly
maintain, than to live dependent upon
the bounty and caprice Of others bet
ter to labor with our hands than eat
the bread of idleness or submit to feel
that we must not give utterance to our
real opinions, or express onr honest
indignation at being required to act q
base or unworthy part. And in al
cases, however situated, every female
ought to learn how all household AZ
fairs are managed, were it only for the
purpose of being able to direct others
There cannot be any disgrace in learn
ing to, make the. bread we eat, to cook
our dinners, to mend our clothes, or

When preaching in Chapel neaE y
don, on one occasion, the Rev. Thomas
Binney remarked experimentation in
allowing persons to stand in faptace
of worship where there was room
near at hand in the pews. He would
cite, he said, AN instance fromshis own
experience. He was preaching ina
chapel not over-crowded, and in one
of, the aisles of the chapel stood9ai
young woman, apparently not too
strong or robust, leaning upon apew
in which were only two young men
"and would you believe it?" said the
preacher, "there they sat, and never
opened the pew-door for that young
woman; there was no occasion for
them to vacate their seat, although that
might not have been too much in q
crowded chapel, had they been gentle
men, and had she been a servant girl
mol moi there they sat. How strange,
the coincidencew continued the
preacher; ait was just such chapel
as this-the aisle was just like yonder
aisle-ay, it was just this day of the
| week, too-just this day of the month
yes, and this very year-and In this
very place-it is this very night-there

FLOWERS,


How the universal heart of man
blesses flowers! They are. wreathed
round the cradle, the marriage alter,
and the tomb. The Persian in the far
east delights in their perfume, and
writes his love in nose-gays, while the
Indian child of the far-west claps his
hands with glee as he gathers the
abundant blossoms,-the illuminated
scriptures of the prairies. The Cupid
of the ancient Hindoos tipped his ar
rows with flowers, and orange BIOS
SONS are a bridal crown with us, a
nation ofyesterday. Flowers garland-
ed the Grecian altar, and hung in votive
wreath before the Christian shrine.
All these are appropriate uses. Flow-s
ers should deck the brow of the
youthful bride, for they are in them
selves q lovely type ofmarriage. They
should twine round the tomb, for their
perpetualIy-renewed beauty isa SYM
Dol of the resurrection. They should
festoon the altar, for their fragrance
and their beauty ascend in perpetual
worship before the Most High.-Mrs.
Child. sr- asi y5 s4saz

ANoTHER of those terrible shock

messed at the execution OF Rufas B.
Anderson, in Nevada. The usual
crowd surrounded the gallows, and
the usual military force and attendant
clergymen had been employed. AZ

er calmly addressed The spectktors.-
Having finished, he stepped forward
to the railing, and requested that the
Deputy Sheriff should put the moose
around his neck, and then shook hands
with those on the platform. He then
took his position on the trap, and his
hands and feet were bound, and the
moose slipped over his head and the
cap drawn over his 'face. AT the sig-
nal the trap fell, and the wfetehed
young man lay stretched on the ground
the knot having given way. There
was wild cry and rush forward OF
the crowd, but the people were kept
back by the guard. Anderson was
carried on the platform, and the moose
again adjusted atound his neck, and
the trap fell. The knot gsxs way
again, and Anderson was prostratsd
insehsible. He was carried up the
steps OF the platform and seated In Z
chair, his face wearing the palloF OF
the grave, from which he had becn

GENIUS.

Alexander Hamilton said to an inti-
mate friend: "Men give me some
credit for genius. All the genius 1
have lies just in this: When 1 have
q subject in hand, study itprofound-
Iy. Day and night it is before me. I
explore it in all its bearings. Ny
mind becomes pervaded with it. Then
the effort which I make the people
are pleased to call the fruit of genius.
1t is the fruit of labor and thought"
Mr.. Webster once replied to gen.
tleman who pressed him to speak on
subject of great importance: gThe
subject interests me deeply, but have
not time. There, sir,s pointing to a
huge pile of letters on the table, :" is
a pile of unanswered letters to which
Imust reply before the close of the
session (Which was then three days
off, 1 have no time to master the
subject so as to do it Justice"
"But, Mr.. Webster a few words
from you would do much to awaken
public attention to it." ....fs7 ....-
"If there is so much weight in my
words as you represent it is because L
do not allow myself to speak on any
subject until my mind is imbued with
it."
Demosthenes was once urged to
speak on sudden and great emergen-
'cy. "I am not prepared" said he,
and obstinately refused.
The law of labor is equally binding
on genius and mediocrity.

HABIT.-"I trust everything, under
Cod" said Lord Brougham, " to hab-
it, upon which, in all ages, the lawgiyL
er as we'll as the schoolmaster, has
mainly placed his reliance; habit,
which makes everything easy, and
casts all difficulties upon deviation
from wonted course. Make sobriety
a habit, and intemperance will be hate
ful; make prudence a habit, and reck-
less profigacy will be as contrary to
the child, grown or adult, as the most
atrocious crimes are to any of your
lerdships. Give child the habit of
sacredly regarding truth; of carefully
respecting the property of others; of
scrupulously abstaining from all acts
of improvidence which involve him
in distress, and he will just as likely
think.of rushing into an element in
which he cannot breathe, as of lying,
or cheating, or stealing"

A Cheap Icc-House.

A correspondence of the Western Rd-
raj gives the following bit of practical
experience, which may be valuable
just now as this is about the season
for securing this great luxury. a.r
tLast January drew one large load
of sawdust and spread it on the ground
on the north side of my horse barn.
then drew. the ice (sawed in square
cakes) and built up a square pile some
eight by ten feet and seven or eight
feet high, filling up the spree between
the cakes with pounded ice. I then
set up scantling and built a board
house around it, two feet larger each
way, than the ice; then filled in saw
dust around, and two or three feet on
top and covered with boards and slabs.
We have used freely through the sea-
son, sold to picnic parties, given away
to sick neighbors and have plenty of
ice yet" ,tts-'

THE BEAUTHUL RIVER,

BY BENJ. p TAYLOR.
Like fondilng in slumber, the summer day lay
On the crimsoning threshold of even,
And thought that the glow through the azure
arched way
Was glimpse of the coming of Heaven,
There together We sat by the beautiful stream;
We had nothing to do but to love and to dream,
In the days that have gone on before.
These are not the same days, though they bear
the same name,
With the one shall welcome no more.
But it may be that the angels are calling them
DER,
For Sabbath and summer forever.
When the years shall forget the December they
wore,
And the shroId shall be woven, no, neyeri
In twilight like that, Jennie June for bride.
Oh! what more of the world could one wish for
beside,
AS we gaze on the river unroll'd-
Till we heard. or we fancied its musical tide
When it flowed through the gateway of gold.
Jennie june then said "Iet us nnger no
more
On the banks of the beautiful river;
Let the boat be unmoored, and muffied the oar,
And. we'H steal into heaven together,
If the angel on duty our coming describes,
You have nothing to do but throw on the dis
That you wore while you wandered with me.
And the sentry shall say, Welcome brck to the
skies,
We have long been awaiting for thee"
Oh! how sweetly she spoke. 'ere she uttered
word,
With that blush, partly hers, partly even's,
And the tone, like the dream of song we once
heard,
As she whispered, az That way is not Heavens,
For the river that runs by the realm of the
blest aEe
Has ne song on its ripple no star on its breast
Oh! that river is nothing like this,
For it Glides on in shadow, beyond the worlds
West,
Till it breaks into beauty and bliss''
am lingering yet, but linger alone,
On the banks of the beautiful river;
'Tis the twin of that day, but the wave where it
shone
Bears the willow trees shadow forever.

To get rid of your troubles, says an
exchange, stop thinking of them.
Whether you are as lively as cricket
or as dull as rain depends, less on the
sire of your pocket-book than on the
of your mind,
