According to a Cincinnati
paper, there are now about
1000 in the Penitentiary Of
of Ohio, two-thirds of whom
are under thirty years of age.
This, says the editor, is owing
entirely to the neglect of pa
rents to have their children
properly educated, and says {:
"Boys are permitted to roam
the streets at night, and visit
billiard and drinking saloons,
and girls patronize dancing
schools and parties, where the
first steps are taken to that
road which ends in the ruin of
character, body and soul. If a
reform of real substantial char
acter is to be inaugurated, par
ents mnst lay the first stones of
the edifice. If they will make
home a school of dicipline,
rather than a boarding house
for "Young America or the
"Girl of the PERIOD" there will
be fewer inmates for houses OF
refuge and the penitentiaries. /"

The Parting Hour.

The following exquisite poem, says the
Portland Evening Commercial, was written
by the late Edward Pollock, the gifted Cali
fornia poet, on the 9th of January, 1857
and has never been published. 1t was given
by the poet to friend who was about to de
part on steamer for Oregon, Pollock say
ing, Take this; you may perhaps, read and
appreei ate the sentiment after have ceas
ed to be among the living
There's something in the ''parting hour
viii chill the warmest heart
Yet Kindred, comrades, lovers, friends,
Are fated all to part;
But this I've seen-and many a pang
Has pressed it on my mind
The oneiwho goes Is happier
Than those he leaves behind.
Nomatter what the journey be
.,.AdYenturOus, dangerous, far
To the wild deep or bleak frontier,
To solitude, or war
Still something cheers the heart that dareS
In all of human kind,
And they who go are happier
Than those they leave behind
The bride goes to the bridegroom's home
With dOubtings and with tears,
But does not Hope her rainbow spread
Across her cloudy fears?
Alas! the mother who remains,
What comfort can she tind
But this-the gone is happier
Than one she leaves behind7
Have you a friend-a comrade dear
An old and valued friend?
BE sure your term of sweet coucOurse
AT length will have an end!
And when yon part-as part you will
o take it not unkind,
If he who goesis happier
Than you he leaves behind
God wills it so-and so it is
The pilgrims on their way,
Though weak and wern, more cheerful are
Than all the rest who stay
And when, at last, poor man subdued,
Lies down to death resigned,
MAY not still be happier far
Than those he leaves.behind.

How Marbles are Made.

The chief place of the manu-
facture of "marbles," those lit
tie pieces of stone which con-
tribute so largely to the enjoy
ment of "Young America" is
at Oberstein, on the Maize, in
Germany, where there are large
agate mills and quarries, the
refuse of which is carefully
turned into good paying ac-
count by being made into the
small balls employed by ex-
perts to knuckle with, which
are mostly sent to the Ameri-
can market. The substance
used in Saxony is a hard calca-
rious stone, which is first brok-
en- into blocks, nearly square,
by blows with a hammer
These are thrown by the hun
dred or two hundred into a
small sort of a mill, which is
formed of a fiat stationary slab
of stone, with a number of con-
centric furrOws upon its face.
A block of oak or other hard
wood, of the same diametric
size, is placed over the stones
and partly resting upon them.
The small block of wood is kept
revolving while water flows
upon the stone slab. In about
fifteen minutes the stones are
turned to spheres, and then,
being fit for sale, are hence
forth called "marbles." One
establishment, containing only
three of these mills, will turn
out fully sixty thousand "mar-
bles' in each week. Agates
are made into "marbles" at
Oberstein by first chipping the
pieces neatly round with a ham
mer handled by a skillful work
man, and then wearing down
the edges upon the surface of a
large grindstone.

UNGRATEFUL CHILDREN
An Eastern proverb which de-
clares that there are no un-
grateful children, is nearer the
truth than it appears. 1t is
but another version ofthe Bibli-
cal maxim: "Train up q child
in the way he should go, and
when he is old he will never de-
part from it." The pare Mt who
does really train up a child in
the way he should go, is the
parent who really deserves the
gratitude Of his child, and he
is the only parent who can
hope to receive it in full meas
+ure. How many parents there
are who, after indulging their
children's every desire, are sim
cereiy astonished to find them
making no return of love and
gratitude. Gratitude For
what should they be grateful?
For an impaired digestion?
For a will uncurbed? For a
mind empty? For hands I'M
skilled? For a childhood vast
ed? For the chance of forming
a noble character lost? These
are. poor claims upon the graft
tude of a child. Bring up your
child so that, at mature age, he
shall have a sound constitution,
healthy desires, and an honest
heart, a we'll formed mind,
good manners, and q useful
calling, and you may rely upon
his making you such a rich re-
turn of grateful affection as
shall a thousand times repay
you for your toll and self-deni-
al which such a training costs.

CURIOUS PREACHING TO
RAISE THE WIND.-Rev. DIR.
Patton said, in Chicago, recent
ly:
erich men who did not give
anything to the cause OF Christ
were recreant to their duty;
and God permitted burglars to
invent tools, including glycer-
inc, to burst open the safes OF
men who would not give mon
ey to God" g
After this, we may expect
burglars and other pickers and
stealers to be buster than bees
in prosecuting their avocations;
and if anybody blames them
or fights them, they can thank
this DR.. Patton for saying they
are acting "upon the Lords
side" IN. Z. Express.
