Mr Wells and His office.

Congress was ready to continue the Office
Of special commissioner Of the revenue, and
a bill to that effect would probably soon
have been carried through both houses.
But there now comes the well authenticated
story from Washington. that Gen. Grant,
following the desire of Secretary Boutwell,.
does not want the office continued. This
means, of course, that they do not wish Mr.,
Wells to occupy it. for the Office is Mr.
Wells. and Mr.. Wells is the oeice. The
question comes up, thon. shall Congress
submit to this executive opinion, or shall i,
order the continuance Of the Office, and
leave with the secreta'y and president the
responsibility Of dlsplacing Mr. Wells hy
the appointment of somebody else to 1t? BY
all means the latter. We say. The otiice
has been ef great b>neft to the county
which fully appreciates Mr.. Wells labors
without any regard to his conclnsions,-
though these are hardly less popular than

THE CHILDR EN- .
BY CHARLES DICKENs.

When the lessons and tasks are all ended,
And the school for the day is dismissed,
And the little ones gather around me,
To bid me good night and be kissed;
Oh, the little white arms that encircle
NY neck in tender embrace
Oh. the smiles that are halos of heaven,
Shedding Sunshine of love on my face!
And when they are gone sit dreaming
Of my childho too lovely to last;
OF love, that my heart will remember,
Whom it wau es to the pulse oe the past,
Ere the world and its wickedness made me
partner of sorrow and sin,
When the glory of God was about me,
And the glory of gladness within.
Oh, my heart grows as weak as woman's,
And the fountai OF feeling will flow.
When think of the paths steep and stony,
Where the feet of the dear ones must 60 ,
OF the mountains OF sin hanging Ger them,
OF the tempest of Fate blowing wild;
Oh there is nothing on earth half SO holy
As the innocent heart Of a child!
They are idols Of hearts and OF households; /;
They are angels of God in disguise;
His sunlight still sleeps in their tresses,
His glory still glcams in their eyes;
oh, those truants from home and from
heaven,
They have made me more manly and
mild!
And I know how Jesus could liken
The kingdom of God to a child.
ask not life for the dear ones.
All radiant. as Others have done,
But that life may have just enough shadow
To temper the glare of the sun;
would pray God to guard them from evil,
But my prayer would bound back to my
self;
All a seraph may pray for sinner.
But sinner must pray for himself.
The twig Is so easily bended

edge,
They have taught me the goodness of
God;

shall leave the old house in the autumn,
To traverse its threshold no more:
All how shall sigh for the dear ones,
That meet me each morn at the door
shall miss the good nights and the kiss
es.
And the gush of their innocent giee.
The group on the green, and the flowers
That arc brought every morning to me.
l shall miss them at morn and at eve,
Their song in the school and the street;
| shall miss the low hum of their voices,
And the tramp of their delicate feet.
When the lessons and tasks are all ended,
And death says, "The School is dismiss
ed"
May the little ones gather around me,
To bid mo good night and be kissed.

THE RA BY.

The perfection of the providence for child
hood is easily acknowledged. The care
which covers the root of the tree under
tough busks and stony cases, provides for
the human plant, the mothers breast, and
the fathers house. The size of the nesiler
is comic, and its tiny, beseeching weakness
is compensated perfectly by the happy, pat
ronizing look Of the mother, who is sort
Of high reposihg Providence toward it. We'll
come to its parents the puny struggle, strong
in his weakness, bis little arms more ire
sstible than the soldierss, his lips touched
with persuasion which Chatham and Peri.
cles in manhood had not. His unaffected
lamentations when he lifts up his voice on
high, or, more beautiful, the sobbing child
the face all liquid grief, as he tries to
swallow his vexation soften hearts to pity
and to mir:hful and clamorous compassion.
The small despot asks so little that all rea
son and all nature are on his side. His ig.
norance is more charming than all knowl-
edge, and his little sins more bewitching
than any virtue. His flesh is angels flesh,
all alive. Infancy" says Coleridge, "pre-
sen,s body and spirit in unity; the body is
all animated" All dav. between his three
or four sleeps, be coos like a pigeon-house,
sputters and spurs, and puts on his faces of

Pharisee fails not to sound his trumpet be-
fore him. By lampight he delights in
shadows on the wall !; by daylight, in yellow
and scarlet. Garry him out Of doors-he
is overpowered by the light and by the ex-
tert Of natural objects, and is silent. Then
presently begins his use of his fingers, and
be studies power-the lesson Of his race.
First it appears in no graf harm, in archi-
tectural tastes. Out of blocks, thread
spools, cards and checkers, he will build
his pyramid with the gravity Of Palladio.
With an acoustic apparatus of whistle and
rattle he explores the laws Of sound. But
chiefly, like his senior countrymen, the
young American studies new and speedier
modes of transportation. Mistrusting the
cunning of his small legs, he wishes TO ride
on the necks and shoulders of all flesh. The
small enchanter nothing can wi,hstand-no
seniority of age, no gravity Of character !;
unces, aunts, grandsires, grandams. fall an
easy prey he conforms to nobody they all

and bahble and chirrup to him. On the

On lichcncd rail in orchard bowers.

Through deserts of the air and light.

Stretch wide around their utmost flight

And skies above tho sun hath dressed

Aud rush on fearless winds to taste,

ADorT HAIR DYES AND Srcl.-Profess,
or Charles f. Chandler, at the reques, Of
the New York board Of health, has been
lately engaged in analy4ing the composition
Of large number of cosmetics, hair washes,
etc, which are largely sold all over the
country. He has made an elaborate re
port. i'll which he shows that, with very few
exceptions, the hair tonics washes and hair
restora,ives contain lead in considerable
quantities. that they owe their action to this
metal, anc that they are highly dangerous
TO the health of persons using them, and
that the enamels arc composed of either
carbonate of lime oxide of zinc, or carbon
ate OF lead, suspended in water. The first
two classes OF enamel are comparatively
harmless as any otter white dirt when plas
tered over ,he skin TO close the po'es, and
prevents its healthy action. On the other
hand, the eualnels composed OF carbonate
0! lead are highly dangerous, and their use
is very certain to produce disastrous results
| TO those who pa.ronize them. The work Of
the board OF health is only half done by ma
king public the tact that the cosmetics and
hair washes are poisonous. They should
