young lives, who gave them both care
and justice, both love and guidance
Such a manner of life has forced her to
forget herself when her child lay ill,
perhaps dying, she had no heart and no
time to think of her own appearance, and
whether this dressing-gown was more
becoming than that; and what did the
doctor think of her with her hair pushed
back from her face; and what fright
she must have looked in the morning
light after her sleepless night of watch
ing. The world and all its petty plea
sures and paltry pains faded away in the
presence of the stern tragedy of the hour;
and not the finest ball of the season
seemed to be worth Il thought compared
to the all absorbing question of whether
her child slept after his draught, and
whether he ate his food with better ap-
petite. And such life, i'll spite of all its
care, has kept her young as well as un-
selfish. As she comes into the room.
with her daughters her kindly face un-
polluted by paint, her dress picturesque
or fashionable according to her taste, but
decent i'll form and consistent in tone
with her age, it is often remarked that
she looks more like their sister than like
their mother. This is in harmony with
her age, and has not therefore put her
self i'll rivalry with them and harmony
is the very keystone Of beauty. Her
hair may be strcaked with white, the
glrlish tlrmness and transparency of her
skin has gone, the pearly clearness of.
her eye is clouded, and the slender grace
of line is lost, but for all that she is
beautiful, and is intrinsicaily Young
What she has lost in outside material
charm, in that mere Jeame dw diaJle of
youth-s she has gained in character and
expression; and, rot attempting to simu-
late the attractiveness of girl, she,
keeps what nature gives hcr-the at
tractiveness of middle age. And, as
every epoch has its own beanty, if wo-
man would but learn that truth, she is
as beautiful now as n matron of fifty,
because in harmony with her years, and
because her beauty has been carried on
from matter to spirit, as she was when
q maiden of sixteen. This is the ideal
women Of middle age, met with even yet
at times, in socicty-the woman whom
all men respect, whom all women envy
and wonder how she does it, and whom
all the young adore, and wish they had
for an elder sister or an aunt. And the
secret Of it lies in truth, in love, in puri-
ty, and in unselfishness.

Almost at the Top.

The following beautiful extract from a
speech of Gen. Woodford, ut public
meeting in Brooklyn, N. Y, shows how
the Union soldiers regard Seymour:
You can now understand how we sol
iiers feel toward his Excellency, Horatio
Seymour. In the hour of our sorrow
and weariness, he had no encouragement
for us, no faith in our courage, and no
faith in tie final victory. Now, in our
triumph, when the flag streams ON every
breeze, and all our land is one again, we
have no need for thee, Horatio Seymour
Let Southern rebels shout thy praise :;
let the burner of asylums, and the desert
eI, and the skulker from the draft, twine
lairrels for thy brow; we will stand by
the old flag, all battle-scarred, but glo-
rious in victory, while we follow the
great captain of our armies, our own
Ulysses Grant. At the battle Of Look
out Mountain, as, following the line of
fire, our surgeons climbed up the hilly
steep, they met four soldiers coming
down, they asked the doctor to look at
their wounded Color Sergeant. His
shoulder and forearm had been torn a.
way by she'll. The surgeon knelt, and
putting the hair back from his manly
brow, asked, "My brave fellow, where
were you hit" His eye unclosed for a
moment, and he family answered, " al
most at the top" "No, my good man,
whereabouts are you wounded ?" Again
his dying eyes opened, and again his pale
lips moved as he whispered, 6 l was al
most 1T the top, sir, bearing the flag,
when the shell struck me. One moment
more, and L should have been clear up"
lie gave me one grasp, and his brave
spirit was gone forever. And, SO, dear
friends. it is with us to-day. We are al
most at the top. In faith and love, we
have carried the dear old flag for four
long years of struggle, until We are
above the clouds, fighting, as Joe Hooker
fought, up in the clear sunlight Of abso-
lutte justice and right. Only once more
close up the ranks; only once more press
up the mountain slope, and we shall
plant our dear old flag up on the noun
tain top OF Il final victory for liberty and
the rights OF man. sf d..

What Family Government is.

1t Is not to watch children with sus
plelous eye, to frown at the outbursts OF
innocent hlarlty, to suppress their joy
Gus liugnter, and to mould them into lit
tie models of aged gravity.
And, when they have been in fault. it
is not simply to punish them on account
of the personal injury that you may have
chanced to suffer in consequence.
Nor is it to overwhelm the culprit
with angry words; to stun him with a
deatening noise; to call him by hard
names, which do not express his mis-
deeds; to load him with epithets which
would be extravagant if applied to a
fault OF tenfold enormity; or to declare
with passionate vehenence that he is the
worst child in the world and destined
foS the gallows.
But it is to watch anxiously for the
first risings Of sin, and to reppress them :;
to cOunteract the earliest workings of
seltishness; to repreSs the first begin
nings of rebellion against rightful au-
thority; to teach an unquestioning and
cheerful obedience to the will of the pa
rent, as the best preparation for Il future
allegiance, and the laws of the Great
Rqler and Father in Heaven.
1t Is to punish fault because It is Il
iahit; because it is sinful and contrary
to the commands of God, without refer
ence to whether it may or may not have
been productive of immediate injury to
the parent of others.
1t is TO reprove with calmness and
composhre, and not with angry irrita-
tation; in few words, fitly chosen, and
not with torrent of abuse to punish
often as you threaten, and threaten only
when you intend and can remember to
perform to say what you mean, and in
fallibly do what You say.
1t is to govern your family as in the
sight OF Him who gave you authority,
who will reward your strict fidelity with
such blessings as he bestowed on 1Abra-
ham, punish your criminal neglect with
such curses as he visited on Eli.
