power in The formation. of character
4 young lady that has seen nothing of
real life. and only knows what she has
heard and read, is greatly astonished
when she meets the distinguished men
and women Of any country They are
not equal to her standard. Young peo-
ole NAV be made Letter by contact with
that which is not so good. Instead OF
falling themselves, they Should tly 10
make the bad good. To be thrown in
early life among all classes and cond.-
tions Of people ought to be esteemed
an advantage rather than a misfortune
The people from whom We can obtain
the most sensible, the truest and viscSt
views Of life, are found among those
WHO struggle for existelce No one can
truly understand life unless they have
suffered. OF this we may be certain.
A truly wise mother might Justly be
distressed if her child never knew grief.
There are plenty Of people who think
thsv have trouble; but to feel what
trouble Is, we must be as others are.
To be really good. one must have seen
life in al its phases. \ poor little lme-
footed girl looks upon the elegantly
dressed lady and thinks her happy She
has food and clothing, and Of course
plenty of Sriends She knows what
comfort, what Joy is. But She could
better understand and would better
comprehend What happiness or what
virtue is if she knew with how little
envy, indeed with what pleasure, her
ill-clad and suffering observer sazes
upon what we receive as evidences Of
her happ;ness. The grefs are fancled.
The Others are real. But often the real
happiness is where the poverty IS and
the wealth is not. We are sometimes
surprised that poor people behave so
well. How many wrongs they might
commit, which are never done A
poor mother goes out 10 beg bread for
darling, perhaps her dying child; She
is the suffering witness of overfiowlng
wealth and luxury, but she dares not
interfere. 1t is her sense Of justice.
The justice of her people, that protects
her. She has sulierings, but she has
also protection that wealth does not
give. God is wise. lie deals lastly.
Is it not well for US to see and to know
ior ourselves such sufferings and such
virtue, that we may fully comprehend
his goodness and his wisdom?
1t is best that children should moi be
loo strongly governed. 1t is the same
in families as with nations. Too much
government defeats the object we wish
to to accomplish 1t is the duty of parents
TO be what they desire their children to
be. A mother example should be her
daughters constant guide 1t is uu-
wise to observe too closely slight laults.
How few there arc that can bear rigid
ross-examination There is nothing
mother should so much covet and SO
much prize as the unreserved confidence
of her daughter But to gain and re-
tain this confidence, We must live the
life we profess. Nothing does d child
,aare harm, nothing can impart to
mother greater grief, than the loss of
this touching and tender relation which
brings tie daughter to the mother in
confession of her error, or which would
prevent her return, even upon repeti-

HOW SHE KISSED ME THE
FIRST TIME.

She stood below me, where the vines
Half hid the face SO wopdrous fair;
The glanelng sunbeam left ray
OF glory on her golden hairl
Her sweet brown eyes looked up to
With all a childs simplicity;
Yet In their depths fain had read
More than a passing thought for me
The tiny hands AID soft white arms
Closely the trellis-w entwlne;
The rosy lips held richer feast
Than amber clusters from the vinel
l stopped and whispered soft and low,
So sacred seemed the words to Inc,
kiss me ~ | shook with sudden fear,
And then L waited trustfully!
Quick, like the glow of early morn,
The bushes spread DER cheek and
- brow; ielt.. #l.i $4,000
She bends chat fair and graceful head
Those brownest eyes are dewy now
And then she raised to mine the lips
That should be mine forever more; 4
And all the earth and air, and sky,
Was glorious as le'er beforel ~
Through all my life, In good or i'll,
Till hushed In silence of the grave,
My lips with glad delight will feel
That first warm kiss my darling gave.

A Pitiable Case---A Child horn
.. in the Streets, -

III the streets. .tHf
On Thursday last our city
was startled by an episode o.
an unusual character, which
resulted in bringing to the
light of the world an innocent
child of shame. The story
briefly is this: An unfortunate
girl named Sarah Glickenkamp,
evenly years of age, went be.
fore Esq. Kricker last week and
had a young man named Bar
thel arrested as being the faith.
er of her illegitimate child. She
subsequently, settled the mat.
ter for a triaing sum. On Sun.
day she was driven from the
place she had been stopping at,
and being in a delicate situa.
ticn was unable to obtain ad-
mittance elsewhere, and for
several nights had, we learn,
been sleeping in out-buildings.
Desperate at last, she started
for the Mayors Office on Thurs.
day, to obtain refuge and as.
sistance. She reached the en-.
trance but was unable to pro-
ceed farther and seated herself
upon the steps. Attention was
shortly attracted to her, and
her condition becoming known,
medical attention was hastily
called in.
Preparations were made to
remove her, but before it could
be done the crisis came. The
frcnt doors were closed, to shut
out the eyes of curious passers-
by, and there, at MONDAY, a
female child was born. This
unexpected event caught the
city officials unprepared, and
for want of swaddling clothes,
the youthful stranger was
wrapped in a newspaper until
aneighbor furnished some nec-
cssary articles. The mother
and child were soon removed
to the house of a kind hearted
lady, who offered to take care
of them for the present.

Visit to MT. Vernon.
The Fourth of July coming
on Sunday this year, the good
and patriotic people of Wash.
ingtOn, celebrated this great
anniversary of our national in,
dependence oh Monday, the
9Th. At 81 o'clock in the
morning, we joined a crowd of
some two hundred fair women
and brave men at the foot of
Seventh street, in the city OF
Washington, and going aboard
of a beautiful little steamer,
glided softly over the bosom of
the smooth and wide Potomac,
down to Mt. Vernon, stopping
a few minutes at the landing at
Alexandria, Fort Foote and
Fort Washington.
The day was auspicious, be-
ing a little hazy and cool, and
the breeze from off the water
invigorated every one aboard
with feelings of delight and
pleasure. The scenery on eth.
or bank of the Potomac was
picturesque and romantic and
the surface of the river, dotted
on every side with little steam.
ers, brigs and smaller craft,
with their white sails set to the
breeze, altogether presenting a
scene at once interesting and
beautiful. i ~f-.n
On arriving at the landing at
Mt. Vernon, we assembled a gen.,
tie declivity along good road
for a fourth of a mile, and ar.
rived at the tomb of Washings
ton, just at the top of the hill.
Each one passed in front of the
iron grating and looked silent.
ly on the beautiful white mar.
BILE sarcophagus placed over
the dust of the great hero and
patriot. Scarcely a word was
said by any one, and if one
spoke, it was in a subdued,
tone as if impressed with the
sacre5ness of the place. Thus
the visitors passed, the fore i;
most moving on, giving place
to others, until all had passed
in front Of the tomb and gazed
silently and reyerently for a
few minutes. Here rest The
mortal remains of the great
and good man-the hero and
the patriot, Washington. il
Although there was no -four.
ish of music, nor display ofban-
ners, no eloquent orations Of
stirring words, yet all felt i'm

trIotism and veneration for the
dead. Yes, they felt the fires

and their hearts swell with
thankfulness to Almighty God
for the blessing of liberty, pur.

fathers of the revolution and
preserved through the late SAN

their noble and worthy sons.
