Reading.

A taste for good reading has long been OBJ
served as one of the most efectual safeguards to
young men against vice and crime. In the first
place it serves 10 give employment in those
hours of leisure and freedom from work which
would be likely otherwise to be worse than
wasted. To the young man who has no taste for
reading the evening hours become loaded with
temptation. 1t is tiresome to sit moping by the
stove, and he naturally drifts to the tavern, the
saloon or the billiard and card table. There he
finds others like himself, with vacant hours to
vile away, and thus grow upon those habits and
associations which soon eventuate in dissipation
or lead to crime. We doubt if one instance in a
thousand can be found of young man. making
shpwreck of hopes and character who was ac-
customed to spend his evenings at home reading
good books and say to any parent that
well-stocked library and an abundant supply Of
newspapers and magazines, with the habit Of
reading on the part of your boy, is worth more
to keep him out of mischief, and to make man
of him, than any other single influence at your
command Again, the habit Of reading confcrs
positive strength and elevation of character.
The well-read man is usually the well-informed
man. Reading is the great stimulus of thinking.
The instances are of great writer and
thinker who was not himself great reader.
There is no stimulus of the mind so powerful as

and trading classes, need this mental excitement

The Farm Home Of my Youthful Days.

Between broad fields of wheat and corn,
In the lonely home where / was born,
The peach trees lean against the wall,
And the woodbine wanders over all;
There is the shaded doorway still,
But strangers foot has crossed the SILL
There is the barn-and still as Of yore
l can smell the hay from the open door,
And see the busy swallows throng,
And hear the pewees mournful song,
But the stranger comes-oh painful proof
His sheafs piled to the heated roof,
There is the orchard-the very trees,
Where my childhood knew long hours of ease.
And watch the shadowy moments run,
Till my life had imbibed more shade than sun;
The swing from the bough now sweeps the air,
But the stanger's children swinging there.
There bubbles the shady spring below,
With its bulrush brook where the hazels grow;
Twas there / found the calmus root
And watched the minnows poise and shoot,
And saw the robin leave his wing
But the strangers bucket is at the spring.
Oh We who daily cross the sill,
Step lightly, for like it still
And when you crowd the old barn caves
Then think what countless harvest sheaves
Have passed within the scented door,
To gladden. eyes that are no more.
Deal kindly with those orchard trees:
And when your children crowd your knees,
Their sweetest fruit shall they impart,
As if old memories stirred their heart
To youthful sports still leave the swing,
And in sweet reverence hold the spring.
The barn, the trees, the brook, the birds,
The meadows with their lowing herds
The woodbine on the cottage wall
My heart still fingers on them all;
le strangers on my native soil,
Step lightly, for 1 love it still.

KIND WoRDs.-They never blister the tongue
nor the lips. And We have never heard of any
mental trouble arising from this quarter.
Though they do not cost much, yet they accom-
plish much. They help ones own good nature
and good WILL Soft words soften our own soul.
Angry words are fuel to the flames of wrath,
and make it blaze more iercely. Kind words
make other people good natured. Cold words
freeze people, and hot words scorch them, and
bitter words make them bitter, and wrathful
words make them wrathful. There is such q
rush of all other words, in our days, that it
seems desirable to give kind words chance
among them. There are vain words, and ldis
words, and spiteful words, and silly WORDS auu
empty words. and boisterous words, and war
like words. Kind words also produce their own
image in mems souls. And beautiful mag ,,,s ~
is They soothe and quiet and s;s e0mUr' os aos
hearer. They shame him out OF MS sour, n'o-
.o.n m,L;nd faeInos. We have not yet begun
to use kind words in such abundance as they
ought to be used.

Upon examining the papers connected with the
collection Of these sums last mentioned it became
apparent that the sum paid in on account OF the
delinIuencies of 1864 should have been appor-
toned and Paid in under the separate heads Of
STATE and County Taxes and OF additional 10
per cent. for delinquency" and that those for the
years 1865 and 1856 should, i'll each case, have
been paid in Ms accounts separately derived from

Tax and additional 10 per cent. for delin-
qUency.''

Treasurer hrs been compelled TO view the entire
sum fIr each year as derived from the delinquent
STATE and County taxes, and therefore to ZAP
pot ion the sum derived solely from that source
in el;h year.
The Auditor might have been justified by the
face of the receipts. in following the same course
but having official knowledge, that portions Of
each of the amounts SO paid in, came from two
three separate sources Of revenue, and which
were to be apportioned on different principles,
he has thought it best not to apportion those
amounts upon his books until it can be done cor
rectly, and which Can only be done after eful
examination Of the several delinquent lists shall
show how those aggregated amounts should be
sub divided ding TO the proper heads of
enue from which they were derived.
The withholding of these sums from apportion-
Inenr at the present time by the Auditor necessa-
rialy produces deficiencies in the Treasures and
Auditors books as to the appor iionments, and rs
the balances in the several funds, for the first
time since they have been in Office but these dis
crepances will cease and the books of the two Of
fcps will be made To agree again, SO soon ap-
