WAITING FoR THE Spring.


As breezes stir the morning
silence reigns in air;
Steel blue the heavens shove. Ell
Moyeless the trees and bare;
Yet unto me the stiffness
This burden seems to bring
Patience the earth is waiting,
waiting for the Spring" 81
Strong ash and sturdy chestnut,
Rough oak and poplar high,
Stretch out their sapless branches
Against the wintry sky,
Even the guilty aspen
Hath ceased her Quiveripg.
As though she too were waiting.
Waiting for the Spring, rsH
/ strain my ears to listen,
If haply where stand
But one stray note Of music
May sound in all the land,
Why art thou mute, o blsckbird
o thrush, why d0st not singy'
ALL surely they are waiting,
Waiting for the Spring,
0heart thy days are darksomeI
o heart thy nights are dreaT;
But soon shall streams Of sunshine
Proclaim the turning year.
Soon shall the trees be leafy.
Soon every bird shall sing;
Let them be silent waiting, "

Caoup.-The season of the year has now COM
meuced in which this infantile disease is most
prevalent, the following extract from the Medical
Gazette Of Paris, is published for the benefit OF
those mothers who usually treat Group without
the aid of physician NJ. Manganterie, after
observing the effect of sulphur on the oridium
of grapevines was led to administer it in several
cases of Group. He mixes teaspoonful OF sui
phur in glass of water, and gives teas spoonful
of this mixture every hour. The effect is de-
scribed as wonderful. The disease is cured in
two days, the only symptom remaining being
cough arising from the presence of loose pieces
of false membrane in the treaches. NJ l.. says
he has followed this plan in seven cases, all be-
ing severe, especially the last, in which the child
was cyanotic, with protruding eyes and noisy
respiration.

| SLURs ON WOMAN.-At recent dinner in this
city, (says Packdrd's Monthly,) at which no la
dies were present, a man, in responding to the
toast on " Woman" dwelt almost solely on the
frallty of the sex, claiming that the best among
them were little better than the worst the chief
difference being in the surroundings At the
conclusion of the speech, gentleman rose to
his feet, and said: 81 trust the gentleman, in
the application of his remarks, refers to his orn
mother and sisters, and not to ours" The ef-
feet of this most just and timely rebuke wa1
overwhelming the maligner of women was covl
cred with confusion and shame. This incdenty
serves an excellent purpose in prefacing few
words which we have for a long time had it in
our mind to say. Of all the evils prevalent
among young men, know of none more
blighting in its moral effects than the tendency
to speak slightingly of the virtue of women.
Nor is there anything in which young men are
so thoroughly mistaken as the low estimate they
form OF the integrity of women-not of their
own mothers and sisters, thank God, but of 9TH
ers, who, they forgot are somebody elses moth
ers and sisters. As rule, no person who sur
renders to this debasing habit is safe to be
trusted with any enterprise requiring integrity
OF character. Plain words should be spoken on
this point, TOR the evil Is general one, and deep
rooted. If young men are sometimes thrown
into the society of thoughtless or even lewd
women, they have more light to measure all
other women by what they see of these than
they would have to estimate the character of
honest and respectable citizens by the develop
ment of crime in our police courts. Let young
men remember that their chief happiness in life
depends upon their utter faith in woman. No
worldly wisdom, no misanthropic philosophy, no
generalization can cover or weaken this funda-
mental truth. 1t stands like the record of God
hmself-for it is nothing less than ths-and
should put an everlasting seal upon lips that are
wont to speak slightly of women.

ALEXANDER T. STEwART.-He married, quite
early, Miss Clara Church, of New York, aban-
doned his literary pursuits and became trader
in a small way A little sum of money was left
him by relative in Ireland. He set up store in
a small room nearly opposite his present down.
town establishment. His shop was a little affair,
only twelve feet front. 1t was separated from
its neighbor by thin partition through which
all conversation could be heard. The store stood
on what is now known as 262 Broadway. He
tended shop from fourteen to eighteen hours
day. He was his own errand boy, porter, book
keeper and salesman. He kept house in the
humblest style. He lived over his store and
for time one room served as kitchen, bedroom
and parlor. His bed hidden from view be-
ing enclosed in chest or bureau. AS Mr..
Stewart attended to the store Mrs. Stewart
attended to the work of the house. The in
crease of business demanded assistants. These
he boarded and to accommodate them more
room was required. So he added to his single
room. He afterwards kept house in chambers
on Hudson street, his income not warranting the
taking of whole house. His style of living
was very plain in his furniture and table, Hardly
a laborer among US to-day would live as plainly
as Mr.. Stewart lived when he began his public
career. But Mr.. Stewart always lived within
his income whatever that income

SrRPICULTURE.-The Circular, the official Or
gan of the Oneida community, formally an
nounces the abandonment of the doctrine which
has made these communists distinctive. The
Malthusian theory gives place to the Bib
lical command and practice, and the leaders are
reported to have recovered the old Jewish
eagerness for offspring" Considering the sup
preston of this " eagerness" for twenty years
except in what are assumed to De accidental or
in few permitted instances-this sudden re-
covery," affecting the whole community, sur
passes anything claimed in the most extravagant
advertisements. But this abandonment of what
has been assumed TO be principle is announced
in such manner as to show that it never a
principle at all, but only practice for the same
prudential reasons which DR.. Storer assigns in
part for the universally of Melthusian practices
in Massachusetts,. The community has been too
poor, in times past, to indulge in the luxury of
propagation it is rich now, and proposes to
build nursery and to proceed in stirpiculture
upon scientific principles. The Circular accord.
ingly calls upon "all who love God and mankind
to pray that they may succeed" in an effort
where all previous efforts of the community have
endeavored to make success impossible.

Lines to q Skeleton.

uthor Of the following is unknown, although rewa
guineas was offered for his or her discovery. Tn
und on Q skeleton in the museum of the Royal G,
'urgeons, uncoln's Inn, London:
Behold this ruiui Twas a skull,
Once Of ethereal spirit full;
This narrow cell was life's retreat,
This space was thoughts mysterious seat,
What beauteous vision filled this spot
What dreams Of pleasure long forgot
Nor hope NOR joy, nor love nor fear,
Have left one trace or record here.
Beneath this moldering canopy
Once shone the bright and busy eye;
But start not at the dismal void;
II social love that eye employed.
If with no lawless fire 1t CLEANED,
But through the dew Of kindness beamed,
That eye shall be forever bright,
When stars and sun are sunk in night.
Within this hollow cavern hung
The ready, swift and tuneful tongue,
If falsehooFs honey it disdainsd,
And where it couldinot praise was chained;
If bold in virtues cause it spoke,
Yet gentle concord never broke,
This silent tongue shall plead for thee
When time unveils eternity.
Say, did those fingers delve the mine
Or without envied rubies shinei
To hew the rock or wear the gem
Can little now avail to them.
But If the page of truth they sought,
Or comfort to the mourner brought,
These hands o richer need shall claim
Than all that wait on wealth or fame.
Avails 1t whether bare or shod
These feet the depths of duty trodi
If from the halls of ease they fled
To seek affliction's humble shed;
II grandeur's guilty bribe they spurned,
And home to virtues cot returned,
These feet with angels wings shall vie,
And tread the palace Of the sky.

When have subject in hand | study it pro-

pore it in all its bearings. Ny mind becomes
pervaded with it. Then the effort which | make
the people are pleased to call it the fruit Of
genius. 1t is the fruit of labor and thought"
Mr.. Webster once replied to gentleman who
pressed him to speak on subject of great i'm
portance "The subject intetests me deeply, but
have not time. There, sir" pointing to a
huge pile of letters on the table, &C is pile Of
unanswered letters to which must reply before
the close of the session (Which was then three
days of): have no time to master the subject
so as to do it justice" "But Mr.. Webster,
few words from you would do much to awaken
public attention to it." &c If there is so much
weight in my words as you represent it is be.
cause do not allow myself to speak on any SUBJ
ject until my mind is imbued with it." Demos
themes was once urged to speak on sudden and
great emergency. " | am not prepared, said
he, and obstinately refused. The law of labor is
equally binding on genius and mediocrty.

Its flavor is said to resemble turkey, though the
color is considerably darker. This animal is a
very clean feeder, cheap, hardy, and subsists
easily at little cost and it seems within possi-
bility that donkeys may be reared on the poorest
commons, not only as beasts of ourthen for the
use of the poor, but as luxurious addition to

WATER PURIFIEs AIR.-Set pitcher OF water
in q room, and in q few hours it will have abb
sorbed nearly all the respired gases in the room,
the air of which will have become purer, but the
water utterly filthy. The colder the water is
the greater the capacity to contain these gases.
At ordinary temperature pail of water will con-
tain pint of carbonic acid gas, and several
pints of ammonia. The capacity is nearly
coupled by reducing the water to the tempera-
ture of ice. Hence, water kept in room for a
while is always unfit for use. For the same rea-
son the water from pump should always be
pumped out in the morning before any of it is
used. Impure water is more Injurious than inn
pure air.
