READ THIS To YOUR SwEETHEARTS.
The character of the young men OF
a community depends much on that
of the young women. If the latter are
cultivated, intelligent and accom-
plished, the young men will feel the
requirement that they themselves
should be upright, gentlemanly and
refined; but-if their female friends are
frivolous and silly, the young men
will be found to be dissipated and
worthless. But remember always,
that a sister is the best guardian OF a
brothers Integrity. She is the surest
incubator of a faith in female purity;
As a daughter. she is the true light OF
the home. The pride Of the father
oftenest is eentered on his son, but his
affection is exI ended on his daughter;
She should therefore be the sun and
centre Of all.

y SENSIBLE FATHER.-SOme years
ago wealthy gentleman of Boston
gave to friend this narrative of his
experience, which is well worth re-
peating once year, in these days of
eXtravagant living:
He had an income of ten thousand
dollars a year Ia large sum then, but
not considered so now, a house in
town, and a country seat a few miles
out. He had several ehildren-a
coach, fine horses and q driver; and
he took pleasure in riding every day
with his children. One day, when
riding. the thought struck him that
each one of his children would expect
to have q fine house, and coach, and
horses, and u driver, as their father
had before them, and TO live as he
lived; if they did not, they would be
unhappy. He did not think that all
of them could have things as he had
them, or live as he was living; and he
rode home, sent his coach and horses
to market and sold them, bought a
cheap carTyaIl, and became his own
driver.
With emphasis he declared that no
amount of wealth cuuld induce him TO
return to his former mode of living I;
for if any of his children should hap
pen to be poor, as in all probability
some of them would be, they should
not suffer in their feelings by the re-
Election that their father rode in his
coach, while they had to rough it on
foot. The example he gave them
afforded him a satisfaction greater
than his wealth had 10 bestow.

CLEANING OF Classic clean a
glass thoroughly, and restore its orig
inal lustre, after the ordinary meth
ods have failed, recourse may be had
to hydrofiuoric acid, such as Is sold
by the chemical establishments in
small gutta percha bottles. This is TO
be diluted with four or five times it's
volume of water. A few drops of tie
solution placed upon wad of cotton,
and the surface of the glass thorough
rubbed over with it, and then washed
off with a good deal of water, the sur
face of the glass will be dissolved by
this application, and new one laid
bare. This process is well adapted to
restoring the brightness of lenses of
spectscles or spy-glasses, dimmed by
age. If concentrated solution OF
this acid be allowed to remain for
some time upon glass, a cavity will be
produced, remarkable for its brilliant
lustre.

Timely Hints oi the use of Coal.

A common fault is toa use too coarse wood for kinding, and too much of 1t. This, while it generally succeeds in light ing the coal, leaves bed of ashes below the coal which interferes with the draft unless raked out; an operation which al- ways retards the combustion of ignited coal. The wood should be of some rapid 1y burning variety which gives quick and high heat, and should be split fine. It should be so placed that the coal will re- main on the top of it, and not fall through the grate, leaving the kindling on the top of any part of the coal. The amount of kindling wood required depends much up on the size of the coal A common mis- take is to use too large sized coal. A good rule, where stoves or furnaces have good draft, is to use coal as small as can be used without inconvenience from its sitting too freely through the grate.
 Crates should have their bars closely set for stoves that are cleaned out daily, and have fires lighted in them each morning, while those which are intended to have fires kept in them continuously for days or weeks will not admit of fine grates, OR account of the accumulation of ashes and small s'clinkers." There is much differ ence in coal in regard to the formation of clinkers These are nothing but vitrified, or partially vitrided earthly matters, lc and only can form when high heat is main tained; they are too apt to be troublesome when there is too great draft. A coal stove or furnace should therefore be so construc- ted that it's draft can be perfectly control led. The bottom draft should admit of being closed air-tight, as nearly as is possible to make it, and there ought al- ways to be provision made for top draft. If, however, the draft of 8 chimney should be So strong that air in too great quanti- ties is drawn in at the bottom when the dampers are closed, damper the pipe which will close it partially must be em- ployed, though in sluggish chimneys such damper is apt to force the gases of com bustion into the, room, and, therefore, it ought always to be avoided when possi- ble. -s .r... a.....
 The practice of putting ashes on the top of fire to keep it, is very productive of clinkers, though it answers the purpose very we'll in other respects. Damp coal screenings are better, and may be econom- ically burned in this manner. If coal fire gets very low, the quickest way to ex- tinguish it is to rake it at the bottom. To preserve fire under such circumstances, Q little coal should be placed on the fire, and when it has caught more may be added, and the raking deferred until it has got we'll ignited. ,r.s.-.- .-.f,.;
 When the fire-bricks have become bur- dened with clinkers which have fused and adhered, they may be cleaned by throwing oyster or clam shells into the fire-box when the fire is very hot, and allowing the fire to go out. The clinkers will generally cleave off without the use of much force the next morning. From two quarts to half peck will be sufficient for most stoves, and the operation may be repeat ed if some of the clinkers still adhere Scientifc American. eS ,al.A.1o aa.sir

The OnOndaga Giant.

The latest from the Cardiff stone man shows that his giantship was @ man oi means. He laid down to rest (how many years ago with his pockets full of specie.
 The Syracuse Journal tells the wondrous tale. Here it is:- 1-5L .3L55 L4ai
 T On Saturday last, Matthew, son of Df.
 Alexander Henderson, veterinary surgeon,
 of this city, while visiting the Cardiff gi-
 ant, picked up from the surrounding de-
 bris thrown out of the excavated resting
 place of this huge work of stone something
 that seemed like blackened scale of brass or rusty old button. Thinking that if
 might possibly have some affinity to the
 wonderful statue he had rubbed the dirt
 and rust from it's surface between his fin ger and thumb, and burnishingit a little
 by rubbing it in the folds of his coat skirts it showed evidence of being an old copper coin, and he accordingly placed it careful Iy in his pocket and brought it home. Dr. Henderson. the lads father, applied some acids to. it, when an ancient coin of nearly the eleventh century revealed itself.
 2 On the obverse side of the coin is the head of the Emperor Festyn, with full flowing beard from the chin, and the sa- cred heart strung from the rosary in the shape of shield or breast plate around the neck. Beneath the $ Emperor is the date, sss1091." Around the edge of the the coin is the following inscription: :G Iestyn-Ap- Gwrgant, Tywysog- -Morganwg, The interpretation of this, as rendered by a competent Welshman, means lcIestyn, son of Gwrgant, Prince of Glanmorgan. 5 On the reverse side is the fgure of the Goddess of Commerce, seated on the wheel at her side, the pillar and ancient crown wreathed with the national emblem, the oak, the shield and spear, supported by the left hand, and the right pointing to . ship on the distant sea, with full sails set, which she seems intently gazing at The inscription around the circle isin the Welsh language, and reads as foliows:--. ". Brenhin ar Gyfraith, 7 the interprets- ton of which is, 'rhe King and the Law. :" The coin is 778 years old-over seven and ls half centuries and on the edge of the i'm can be distinctly seen sGlanmorgan Half Penny. with representations of leaves The denomination of the coin is imprinted in raised letters, and ev- erything connected with it shows it to be B coin of the reign of the Emperor whose name it bears. Further; in connection viii, the r,nearthing of the stone giant, its discovery in the loose dirt thrown up from the bed of the excavation where the statue was found and yet lies is certainly unite interesting, and seems to add to the general interest that attaches to this great md unexplained mystery of the nineteenth century. s5la1

: Miss Dickinson chose to call her lecture
 of last night, ""Whited Sepulchers," 7" and to introduce it by g description of the evils of
 polygamy, as she witnessed them in Utah,
 last summer But in truth the key note of
 what she said in her hour and half, was
 her remark that the discontent of women,
 and of society in. it's relation to marriage grow out of "the man of the present and
 the woman of the past."'1 She showed, with
 powerful touches and apt illustrations, that the progress of civilization has not been equally great with women and with men, that the model woman of society and the pulpit, and the press, is the woman of c period that is passing away, while men seek and wilInot be content without c companion in the thought and life of to-. day. . To change this, Miss Dickinson de- mands equality of rights, education, free- dom, and respect for women as for men, 90 that they may become truly heocompan- ions, and not the mere possessions or in- of the men they marry Springfield Republican, Noo. 4 s.''
