The following is the experience of q
mechanic concerning the benefits of q
newspaper:
Ten years ago lived in town in In
diana. On returning home one night,
for am a carpenter by trade, l saw a
little girl leave my door, and asked my
wife who she was. She said Mrs. Harris
had sent her after their newspaper. which
my wife had borrowed. As we sat down
to tea my wife said to me, e o.. E,.,
II wish you would subscribe for the
newspaper; it is SO much comfort to me
when you are away from home" i3'i'
Il would like to do so" said /, "but you
know | owe payment on the house and
lot. 1t will be all can do to meet il"
She replied '.If you will take this pa
per, will sew for the tailor to pay for
it." 3
l subscribed for the paper it came in
due time to the shop. While resting ono
noon and looking over it. l saw an adyer-
tisemcnt of the County Commissioners to
let bridge that was to be built. l put
in a bid for the bridge, and the job was
awarded to me, on which / cleared $500,
which enabled me to paJ for my house
and lot easily and for the newspaper. II
[ had not subscribed for the newspaper |
would not have known any thing about
the contract, and could not have met my
payment on my house and lot. A me-
Charlie never loses anything by taking q
newspaper.

Man loves the mysterious. A cloud
less sky, the full-blown rose, leaves him
unmoyed, but the violet which hides its
blushing beauties behind the bush, and
the moon, when she emerges from behind
a cloud, are to him sources of inspiration
aud pleasure. Modesty is to merit what
shade is to figures of pointing-it gives it
boldness and prominence. Nothing adds
more to beauty than modesty; it sheds
around the counteranue halo Of light,
which is borrowed from virtue. sBotanists
have given to the rosy hue which tinges
the cup. of the white rose the name of
maiden blush" This pure and delicate
hue is the only paint Christians should
use it il the richest ornament. A wo-
man without modesty is like faded flow
er, which diffuscs an unwholesome odor,
and which the prudent gardener will throw
from him. Her destiny is melancholy,
for it terminates in shame and repentance.
Beauty passes like the flower of the albo,
which blooms and dies in a few hours !;
but modesty gives the female character
charms which supply tbeplacc of the tran
STORY freshness of youth. 4sayE4 sfse

tFrom the Bristol Cotricr.l

II iOH tuC DTIStOi COuTtCT-l
About three months ago a white man
by the name of Hurt was missed from his
accustomed haunts in Russell county, Va,
but as there was a warrant in the hands
of an ofhcer for his arrest, nothing strange
was thought of it-people suppssing he
was keeping out Of the way for awhile
On the morning of tho 21st ult.,
HIS REMAINS WERE FOUND
in a deep sink-holc (some thirty feet
deep on MIR. Stuart's farm. Some young
men were out hunting walnuts, and were
attracted to the spot by the smell. Two
negro men were arrested on suspicion
Ham -, and Arch -. The former
was not implicated in the murder, but as
there we're other charges against him, he
was sent on for further trial. Arch was
FOUND GUILTY OF THE MURDER.
1t seems that some three moath. AGO.
Hurt one night went to the house of
negro. and in short time Arch came in.
After some pleasant conversation, Arch
picked up Hurts gun, which he had laid
in chair. and told him he had better be
going. Hurt turned to look at him, and
the same moment the contents of the gun
was shot through his body
KILLING HIM INSTANTLY.
Arch made the negro, at whose no Use the |
murder was committed, help him wrap the
in a quilt and convey it to the
sink where it was found. Three witness
es, who were present when the murder
was committed, all testified to tho facts
above stated. and offered as an apology
TOR having kept the matter secret, that
Arch, at the time of the act. had threat
sned to kill any of them that ever reveal
ID it in any way. As soon as he was ar
rested they promptly come forward and
estifed. Arch was sent to Abingdon foi
confinement, and will be taken back to
Russell next week for trial.

Our best friends are at home. Those
who love us best, who would do most for
us. who are most interested in our lives
and would weep the bitterest tears were
we to die-dwell under our own roof, eat
at our own table and sleep under the
shadows of our own protection. How,
then, should we feel towards them and
treat them? IF they are our best friends
we should be theirs, and If we are their
friends we should show it. Concealed
friendship does not do us much good.
If a mine of gold is on our farm and
we know it not, we are not much better
off for it. Many people have strange
way of showing their friendship to the
members oftheir own home CIRCLE. They
are exacting, cross, surly, fretful in many
ways, and all this to friends they really
love. They mean no harm, they mean
not to break the cord of friendship. or
mar its sweet symphonies-but somehow
forget that home, friendship should be
treated more dclicatcly and kindly than
any ethsr, because Il is better. and more

Tenching.

Teaching is imparting instruction or in
formation to others. Those who are I,
receive benefit by oral instruction must
of course, be present with the teacher
both in body and mind. The attention
must be given. The ac,U must be in q
proper frame. The pupils must give
their consent to be instructed. The,
must believe that they can learn, that the
teachers is competent to instruct them
But more than this they must have a de.
sire to learn now, aud to learn the par
ticular subject under consideration. That
this state of things may exist, the atmos-
phere of the school room must be pure
and Of a suitable temperature. the body
must be in comfortable position, the
mind must be unoccupied by other sub
jccts, the attention undiverted, and the
minds desire to know must be thoroughly
aroused. -ra.f -. rrFt
From these remarks we may sec the
propriety of the following fundamental
conditions of success which are commen-
ded to the consideration Of every teacher
L. 1t is utterly useless to attempt to
communicate information, or give in
struction to scholars, unless you can Sc
cure their constant attention.
2. To secure the attention, .he teacher
must train the pupil to control his senses
the eye must be kept upon the teacher,
that there may be opportunity for that
intercourse Of mind with mind, which can
take place only through the medium of
the eye; and the car must be intent to
citeh. not only the words, but those into
nations and modulations of the voice
which convey relation Of ideas and shade
of meaning too subtle for words to ex
press.
8. An earnest desire to learn, and to
learn that which you are attempting to
teach, must be awakened in every pupils
mind, or the teachers effort will be with
out avail.
A. The instruction given must be on
level with the capacities of those for whom
it is intended I: it must be adapted to their
present stage of mental Advancement, and
to the cultivation of the faculties in their
natural order
5. The amount of information commu-
nicated at any one time must be proper
tened to the capacity of the scholars.
Enough should be given at each lesson to
call invigorous exercise the faculties Of
every pupil but not enough to overtask
and discourage.
6. The time occupied by any lesson or
exercise should vary with the age and ad-
vanccment of the class. The attention Of
young children should not be closely con-
fined to an exercise more than ten to fif-
teen minutes. intermediate grades may
occupy from twenty to thirty minutes
the more advanced classes in grammar and
from thirty to forty-fve
z. The teacher should always endeavor
TO call out from the class oil the knowl-
edge possessed by them on tho subject,
before presenting anything new.
s. He should never do anything for the
pupil which the pupil can be led to do
for himself. by judicious and suggestive
questions, lead the scholar to that which
be desires and needs to know.
o, Never explain q difficult point in
lesson if there is single scholar in the
class who has mastered it. DO not lose
sight of the necessity of through reviews.
