the land Of beauty beyond the river
and the peace Of the spirit within
is mirFored on the features without.
It is interesting TO observe the
different expressions given by the
play Of emotion and passion on the
face the smile Of joy, the tear Of
grief, the scOwl of hate, the beam
ing of love, the sparkle of hope, and
the gloom Of despair, all are there
in unmistakable characters. As
the constant drip Of the water wears
the rock, so the habitual expression
Of that within is stamped on the
countenance In characters never to
be efaeed BY the finger Of time.
The education OF these muscles
of expression is of primary impor-
tance. The facial muscles should
be trained no less than those of the
hand and foot; the grace embodied
in these members by skillfal culti-
vation is certainly less to be desir-
ed, if necessity directs a choice,
than the highest degree of grace
and beauty-that Of expression.-
Some faces, possessing all the ele-
ments of beauty existing in fine col
or and shapely feature, are yet OBJ
jectionable to the eye Of the critical
observer from lack of harmonious
expression.
Addison's remark that "nO one
can be handsome by the form of
feature alone, any more than one
can be witty by the help of speech
alone" is undoubtedly just.

DURING his days Of youthful en-
thusiasm every man promises him
self a career Of perfect happiness
of stainless respectability-mateh-
less honor. We fiatter ourselves
that the world viii reform itself for
our sake. We anticipate a fault
less partner in our future bride and
cheat ourselves with the expecta-
ton that the even current of desti-
nies win flow over sands of gold
Alas! the first self-deeeption we are
compelled to resign becomes q bit
ter trial TO our foFtitade; but, one
after another, we see these cherish
ed visions fade away-we inure our
selves to the degree of mediocrity
which is our allotted portion-and
finally learn to be contented with
such dirty scraps as the charity of
fortune throws in our way.

Babies.


A baby in the housei How ma
ny hearts are gladdened by the
strange appearance. How quickly
and gladly the mothers heart beats.
She feels its gentle breath, and then
its little eyes peep slyly out. What
a thrill of joy is awakened. It's
head is nestled wafmly upon its
mothers bosom, and she dreamily
sees its womanhood ripening into
beauty and intelligence, virtue and
love, or its bOyhood, animated by
lofty ambition, glide into the stern
er duties of manhood, and the ac-
tor upon the stage of life becomes
the child of fortune and fame-Sen-
ates bow to his eloquence, nations
tremble at his war-like name. He
will be known and honored when
his parents are gone ''to that bourne
from whence no traveller returns"
He will honor their last resting
place. She will plant flowers upon
the narrow mound, and come at eve
and bathe their memory with her
teers.
God bless the baby! Around it
a thousand hopes cluster. It is
blessed light in the household.
But, ah! how sad the hour when
baby gets sick. Its little cheek
grows paIe-its eyes are dimmed-
its lips grow Ivid. Disease, a fear
full monster, to attack so weak be-
ing. Go seek the strong and fear
less-go lay thy hand upon stern
warriors-but spare the innocent,
helpless babe!
Our heart was touched with sym
pathy a few days ago by friend
who related to us the scene Of the
death and burial of an infant in the
City Cemetery. A beautiful, intel
igent boy of six rosy summers
the only hope and comfort of a wild
owed mother-became iii. The
physician came and did all within
the power of his profession to stay
the disease. The distressed moth
er clung to hope. ''Come and kiss
me, mama," he said, calmly and af-
fectiOnately. The warm kiss was
placed upon the cold and hvid
cheek. The mother had scarcely
raised her form bended over the
sick boy before the last struggle
was over. Death had finished his
conquest!

Advice to Girls.


Somebody gives the following
advice to girls. We think the ideas
are correct
Men who are worth having want
women for wives. A bundle of
geWgaws, tied together with string
Of fat and quivers, sprinkIed with
cologne and set in carmine saucer
this is no help for man who ex-
poets to raise a family Of boys on
veritable bread and meat. The pi-
ano and lace frame are good in their
places, and so are ribbons, frills and
tinsels, but you cannot make din.
ner of the former or a blanket of
the latter-and awful as such an
idea may seem to you, dinner and
blankets are necessary to domestic
happiness. Life has its realities,
as well as its fancies; but you make
it all decoctions remembering the
tassels and curtains but forgetting
the bedstead. Suppose a man of
good sense, and, Of course, good
prospects, to be looking for a wife,
what chance have you to be chosen?
You may cap him or you may trap
him, but how much better to make
it an object for him to catch you.
Render yourself worth catching,
and you will need no shrewd mo-
ther or brother to help you find a
market.

Dress and Annearanee.

A coat that has the mark of use
upon It is a recommendation to the
people of sense, and hat with too
much nap and too high lustre, de
rogatOry circumstances. The best
coats in our streets are worn on the
backs of penniless fOps, broke-down
merchants, clerks with pitifal sala-
mes, and men who do not pay up.
The heaviest gold ehsins dangle
from the fobs of gamblers and gen.
tlemen Of very limited means; cost
ly ornaments on ladies indicate to
the eyes that are well opened, the
fact Of q silly lover or husband
cramped for funds. And when a
pretty woman goes by in plain and
neat apparel, it is the presumption
that she has fair expectations and a
husband who can show balance in
his favor; for women are like books
too much gliding makes men sus-
piciOus that the binding is the i'm
portant part.

The relations of matter and spirit
have probably caused more discus
sions and differences among learned
men of all ages than any other sub
ject whatever.
The union of matter and spirit as
exhibited in a living human crea-
ture is certainly the wonder Of crea-
ton. As spirit is the motive power
of the body it is no less the sculp-
tor of fashioning the crowning part
of the body-the face. Day by
day, month by month, year by year,
the process goes on, until finally
there is given to the eye of the be-
holder a model Of the soul within.
In infancy there was probably no
material difference between the IA
ces Of George Washington and Hen
ry VIII. but compare the portraits
and character Of the two at maturi-
ty, and you are compelled 20 admit
that the spirit is responsible for the
external manifestation ofgood and
evil there represented.
The mysterious sympathy OF the
facial nerve in communicating the
purposes Of the viii to the muscles,
and calling them into action, is not
more wonderful than the emotion
