The German Soldiers Mt Drill.

The Berlin correspondent of the New
York Eoening Post, who was himself a SOL
dier in the late war for the Union, writes
as follows:
"The discipline and daily routine Of ex-
ercise for the Prussian army is, to all for
egners, a source of never-ending wonder.
The early morning is devoted to cleansing
the quarters, and correcting any Irregular
tiles which may have ariSin out of the pre-
vious days duties. Later in the forenoon
the hours are given to study-arithmetic,
geography, geometry, theory and practice
of military science; and even singing is not
neglected. Great importance is attached
to the studies of the soldiers, and, by at
tanning a certain advancement in know
edge, each one, after satisfactory eXamina-
ton, can shorten his term of service from
one to two years. In the afternoon of each
day the bodily culture is attended to, and
this consists not only in purely military
drill but also of every variety of physical
exercise, calculated to add either strength
or suppleness to the human form-running,
leaping, vaultng, balancing, bayonet exer
else, lifting, shooting, bending, altogether
such an innumerable variety of movements
that no muscle of the body is without its
daily exercise. These squad drills are fol-
lowed by company and regimental parades,
and at short intervals by grand field move
ments of brigades and divisions, and these
once or twice a year by grand army move
ments with mock battles. | have not been
fortunate enough to witness any of their
grand tactics, but the exercises in detail by
company, battalion, squadron or battery,
and in particularly the artillery movements,
seem to me to be rs near perfection as
patience and practice can make them

Protect Your Eycsight.

Millions blindness was the result of over
work and dyspepsia. One of the most en-
inent American divincs, having for some
time been compelled to forego the pleasure
of reading, spent thousands of dollars in
value, and lost years OF time, in conse-
quence of getting up several hours before
sunrise and studying by artificial light
His eyes never got well.
Multitudcs of men and women have made
their eyes weak for life by the too free use
of the eyesight, reading small print and
doing fine sewing. In view of these things
it is well to observe the following rules in
the use of the eyes:
Avoid all sudden changes between light
and darkness.
Never read by twilight Or moonlight or
on very stormy day.
Never sleep so that on waking, the eyes
shall open on the light of window.
Do not use the eyesight by light SO scant
that it requires an effort to discriminate.
Never read or sew directly in front of the
light OF window or door.
1t is best to have the light fall from above
obliquely over the left shoul der.
Too much light creates glare, and pains
and confuses the sight. The moment you
are sensible of an effort to distinguish, that
moment cease, and talk, walk, or ride.
AS the sky is blue and the earth green,
it would seem that the ceiling should be a
blush tinge, the carpet green, and the walls
of some mellow tint.
The moment you are instinctively promr-
ted to rub the eyes, that moment cease using
them.
If the eyelids are glued together on wax
ing up, do not forcibly open them, but ap-
ply the saliva with the tinger-it is the
speediest dlucnt in the woodland then
wash your eyes and face in warm water.

John Browns House and Grave.

The house is implanted and plain, though
equal to the ordinary farm-houses of the
region. 1t stands well up the hills, sepa-
rated from the wilderness by few cleared
fields, commanding a majestic view of the
mountain world. A few rods in front a
huge boulder, surrounded by plain board
fence, is the fit monument of the fierce old
apostle of liberty. At its foot is the grave.
The headstone was brought from an old
graveyard in New England, where it stood
over the grave of his father, Captain John
Brown, who died in New York in 1776
The whole stone is covered with the family
inscriptions : John Brown, executed at
Charlestown, Va, Dec. 2, 1859; Oliver and
Watson, his sons, both. killed at. Harper's
Ferry the same year; and his son Freder-
lex, murdered in Kansas by border ruffians
in 1856. Aboye the little grassy enclosure
towers the mighty rock almost as high as
the house, and on its summit is cut, in
massive granite characters, the inscription,
"John Brown, 1850" Standing on the top
of this monumental rock, for the first time
| felt that | comprehended the character of
the man whose name it commentaries.
could well understand how much n man,
formed in the mould of the old Scotch Cow
enanters and English Puritans, brooding
over the horrors of slavery, foreseeing the
impending struggle for liberty, maddened
by the murder of his sons and friends in
Kansas, with the mighty northern hills
looking down upon him, the rush of strong
rivers, and the songs of resounding temp
ests, and the mystery of the illimitable
wilderness all about him, should easily
come to think himself inspired to descend
like a mountain torront, and sweep the
black curse from out the land. | reverently
raised my hat and sung, "John Browns
body lies a-mouldering in the grave; his
soul is marching on"
My singing brought out two men, who
seemed exploring the uninhabited place.
They took me in their blackboard, and we
.iolted down to the valley. They told me
the estate was nearly all sold, and the
family removed to California; that the man
who owns the house would sell it, with a
hundred and sixty acres of land, for fifteen
hundred dollars, wishing to move to Kan
sas. Gerritt Smiths negroes have all left
town, and lie is still the possessor of miles
of this wilderness. Last autumn the home
stead was purchased by an association of
gentlemen in New York, and will doubtless
be preserved-perhaps to become a famous
place of pilgrimage for our children. My
blacksmith friend, with whom l RODE said:
Everybody in North Elba wanted to sell
out and go away. For his part he didn't
see why people come up there to climb
them thunderin' mountains" There are
probably less than four hundred people now
living in this large township of eighty
thousand acres.-From sold and Ner."

Children's Parties.

Children's parties are among the many
pcculiarities of our present social life
Doubtless, children have always more or
less had their parties. They assemble in
the evening, and stay well on toward mid
night. We shall leave to others the con-
sideration of the moral consequences to
the juvenile mind of this early acquaint-
ance with all the forms of fashionable sOci-
ETY., and shall confine ourselves to "a consid-
Grafton of the physical consequences, which
we take to be injurious and undesirable
Children are excited beforehand, and still
more at the time. They are dressed insult
ticiently, they dance themselves into great
fatigue, they eat and drink at late evening
hours, what would try their digestion badly
enough in it's midday vigor, and, worst of
all, they lose from two to six hours sleep.
The Interior consequences of this entire
disarrangement of their habits and their
functions are paleness, languor: and the
development of various other ailments, ac-
cording to the constitutional peculiarities
of the children. BY all means, let children
have their own gatherings, but let them be
within reasonable hours. Let food be sim
pie, dress sufficient and warm, and, above
ALL let not the precious hours of sleep be
curtailed just when, by reason of excite
ment and exhaustion, they need most to

COrnS.

Hard corns are caused by too much pres
sure of the shoe, or by its being 50 loose as
to slide back and forth on the spot where
the corn afterwasd shows it. Medical
books record several cases where pairing a
hard corn has caused bleeding which no
known means could arrest, and death en-
sued Nothing harder than the finger
nail ought ever to be allowed to touch a
corn, which can be always cured or kept
from causing inconvenience by simply
bathing the part in warm water for half an
hour for several days in succession; often
a single bathing will accomplish the object
of so softening the parts adjacent to the
actual corn that it can be picked out with
the finger-nail, and the shoe can be in
stantly worn without discomfort, which an
hour before gave pain; it may return in a
week, Or month, or year, but the same
treatment will always avail Pairing them
causes them to spread and take deeper
root.
Soft corns arc very troublesome, but are
sometimes removed by patiently bathing or
soaking them in strong alum water night
and morning.
1t is so much better to know safe and
inexpensive way of doing things, that it
is really worth while to teach these meth
DDS to every child in the household.

Whitherl

All spanglcd are the becch-trees with
notes Of autumn gold,
And meath their spreading rcd leaves is
many love-tail told:
O'erclouds the sky with shadow, the tlIun-
der showers fall,
And fade away the sunbeams-away be-
You'd recall.
The babbling brook o'er-ripplcs the peb-
bles smooth and white,
The water-lilies culver and tremble in the
light:
Arise the wind and tempest, from whence
we may not know,
The brook becomes torrent, away the
lilies flow
The prisoned lark is strainng his little
throat to raise
The song that once on green turf he sang
to Heavens praise;
His shrill sweet notes ascending, in melody
uprise,
Re -echoing till their music is lost amid the
skies.
All whittier 60 the gold notes, and where
the lilies white,
Borne onward by the torrent, resistless
from our sight?
And whittier goes the brooklet, and where
the BRIDES lay
Is it unto that Hereafter, whittier all must
pass away?

In STATU Quo.-An African boy, some
seven or eight years old, Dan by name, was
set to learn words in an old spelling book
that had been tossed about the house. lie
soon became interested in watching a race
between small boy and Time, as repre-
scnted by an engraving in the book, and
every spare moment of the day that he
could find was devoted to the contempla-
ton of the Ito himO exciting chase. Night
finally compelled the young African to lay
aside the book which his race at the present
day manifest so much pleasure in studying,
and to retreat to his pallet, where, no
doubt, he dreamed of 'dat big fellow wild
lie mowin' scyve," as he called him in pur-
suit of the poor frightened boy. Dan was
up with the lark next morning. and the
first thing he did was to get the Speller
and look for his heroes of the race. He
gazed intently for an instant at the picture,
and then, with a wild scream of delight,
exclaimed as he danced all about the old
kitchen, ale amt cotched i'm yit! he ain t
cotched i'm yit-GoNy! he amt cotched
i'm yitr'-Editors Dracer, in Harper

KossUTH.-A Boston traveller, having
been commissioned to ask Kossuth to come
to this country and lecture, writes: "In a
retired quarter of the royalty-forsaken city
of Turin, over a humble wine tavern, l
found the lonely Magyar mild, delicate,
rather igniied-looking gentleman of ap-
parently sixty years of age, whose de-
meanor, though grave, exhibited much
affability and courtesy. He expressed his
deep regret that it was beyond his power
to entertain my proposition, averring that
lie had retired entirely from public life and
was now recluse from worldly affairs. Il
dislike giving you, said he, "a cold mega
tive, but am not the man l was; l have
had heavy domestic affections; l want
nerve; and as for addressing number of
deople, I have almost forgotten what pub
lie speaking is. l am i'll truth a change
ling. Were 1 to go anywhere, it would be
to America. But he AIDED, why want me;
are you not nation of orators p"

To MAKE HOME HArry.-Nature is in
dustrious in adjoining her dominions; and
man, to whom this beauty is addressed,
should feel and obey the lesson. Let him,
too, be industrious in adjoining his domain
in making his home the dwelling of his
wife and children, not only convenient and
comfortable, but pleasant. Let him, as far
as circumstances will admit, be Industrious
in surrounding it with pleasant Objects
in decorating it, without and within, with
things that tend to make it agreeable and
attractive. Let industry make home the
abode of neatness and order-a place which
brings satisfaction to every inmate, and
which in absence draws back the heart by
the fond associations Of comfort and con-
tent. Let this be done, and this sacred
spot will become more surely the scene of
cheerfulness and peace. Ye parents who
would have your children happy, he in
dustrious to bring them up in the midst of
| a pleasant a cheerful, and happy home.
Waste not yonr time in accommodating
wealth for them; but plant in their minds
and souls, in the way proposed, the seeds
! Of virtue and prosperity.
