LAYING UP FOR CHILDREN. PARENTAL az
lection naturally inquiries what it can best do
for the welfare of its children in future years,
and when the bosom which now throbs with
love to its offspring shall be cold in DEATH
Many plans are laid, and many days and hours
of anxious solicitude are spent in cOntrlvlng
WAYS and means OF rendering children PROS
perous and happy in future life. But parents
are not always wise in the provisions which
they seek to make for their children, nor do
they always seek direction and COUNSEL from
God in this matter. The best inheritance Tor
children, beyond all contradiction, is true
piety towards God-the salutary truths and
principles of religion, laid up in the hearts OF
children-a good education-good and virtuous
habits, unloading principles OF moral conduct,
the fear OF God, and the hope of heaven. This
is the best inheritance for children, which all
parents should be most anxious to lay up for
them.
Many an unwise parent works hard, and
lives sparingly all his life, for the purpose OF
leaving enough to give his children start IN
the world, as it is called. Setting a young
man ahoat with money left him by his relative
Is like tying badderS under the arms OF one
who cannot swim; len chances to one he Will
lose his bladder and go to the bottom. Teach
him to swim, and he will not need bladders.
Give your child sound education. See to
it that his morals are pure, his mind eultva-
ted, and his whole nature made subscrvient to
the laws which govern man, and you have
given what will be more valuable than the
wealth OF the Indies. You have given him
start which no misfortune can deprive him of,
The earlier you teach him to depend upon his
own resources, and the blessing of God, the

\ very peculiar cG7o has been
submitted TO General Spinner, Uni

II seems that litigation is going
on in one Of tho Prussian courts,
where the question Of consideration
turns upon the genuincncss OF Ger.
tain Confederate treasury notes.
One party holds that they ayo couu-
terteit, whilo the other maintains
that they genuine, and therefore, 3
consideration according to the terms
OF the contract. \ specimen of the
notes has been submitted to General
Spinner through Baron Gcrolt, tho
North German ambassador. for u
decision as to whether they are
genuine or not. llo is Of opinion
that the specimen submitted isn
genuine issue of the Confederate
treasury but lie declines to have
his opinion considered rs evidence
in the matter. The question now
arises, who can give evidence OF the
gcnulncness OF these notes, and if
genuine, what is their market
value? We have no opinion to or
press with regard to this question.
II strikes me as being somewhat
peculiar at this time that any per-
son or persons should attach any
Importance TO the Confederate debt.
II the foreigners are willing to go
to law and Quarrel over it, possibly
there may be more in the mattcc
than strikes US Americans at tho
first blush. We are now so much
interested in the payment Of our
own debt that we may have lost

sibly, pay the Confederate deLt.
