HOME INFLUENCE.

There is nothing that has a more
direct influence upon the human
character than the early associations
of home. When we go into some
houses, can we wonder, as our atten-
ton is drawn to the discoTds, cOnten-
tiOns, and inhaFmOniOus feeling that
abounds there, can we wonder, / re-
peat, that the children grow to ma
turity with characters and disposi-
tiOns totally destitute OF all refined
and loving qualities? The habits
they form by these associations fol-
low them to their grave; they grow
into their lives like so many evil
spirits that cannot be cast out. The
bad qualities many persons possess
are not born in them they are, more
frequently, the result of early expe-
riences. When we see the poor little
waif upor the street who has no home
bu6 the world, no mothers love to
guide or direct his youthful thoughts
to noble actions and high impulses, |
with no restraint placed upon him
and nought to curb his young reek- |
lessness-can we wonder-that he |
takes the direct road to the peniten-
tiary? Nothing short of u positive |
can save person of this char
acteI, and he who rises from the
street to a position of true manhood
is deserving of something greater
than human praise. There are no
that fix themselves more
closely in our hearts than the remem-
brances of childhood and home.
Their silent yet living influence is
ever acting upon our mental nature;
it is the source of refined and tender
feelings; it helps 3 greatly in over
coming the selfishness that is innate
with US, and thus it is that the in
iuences of home perpetuate them
selves. The gentle grace of the
mother lives in her daughters long
after her head is pillowed in the dust
If the earth and fatherly kindness

GOLDEN RULES OF LIFE.

All the air and exercise in the uni
verse and the most liberal table but
poorly suffice to maintain human
stamina, if we neglect other cO-opera-
i7es, namely, obedience to the laws
of abstinence, and those of ordinary
qualification. We rise with a head
ache and set about puzzling ourselves
with the cause. We then recoiIeet
that we hao a hard days fac, or that
we feasted over-bounteously, or that
we staid up very late; at all events,
we incline to find out the fault, and
then call ourselves fools for falling
into it. Now, this is an occurrence
happening almost every day; and
these are the points which run away
with the best part of our life before
we find out which is for good or evil.
Let any single individual review his
past life; how instantaneously the
blush will cover his cheek when he
thinks of the egregiOus errors he has
unknOwingly committed - say un-
knowingly, because it never occurred
to him that they were errors until
the effects followed that betrayed the
cause. All our sickness and ailments

There are thousands who practice
errors day after day, and whose per
vading thought is, that everything
which is agreeable and pleasant can
not be huTtful. The slothful man
loves his bed; the topper his drink,
because il throws him into an exhila-
rative and exquisitive mood; the
gourmand makes his stomach his god;
and the sensualist thinks his delights
So we go on, and at
last We stumble and break down. We

overheard the following conversation
between young lady teacher, who

gentleman who had always believed
he could speak the English language:
Old Gentleman-"Are there any
houses building in your village ?"
Young Lady-"No, sir, There is a
new house being built for Mr.. Smith,
but IL is the carpenters who are build
ing"
Gentleman-"True; I sit corrected.
To be building is certainly a different
thing from to be being built. And
how long has Mr., Smiths house been
being bdilt?"

then answers rather abruptly )-"Near-

it, and the new one being only being

pected, he eannot-D

FEMALE SMUGGLERs.
From the Detroit Free Press, Oct. al

| from the Detroit Free Press, Oct 2.
1t is a fact probably better known tC
| the Custom House officials than tC
outsiders, that at least every tenth
woman who crosses the Detroit river
carries smuggled goods. The goods
may be tea, coffee, socks, thread, rib
bons or something else of great value,
but the intent to smuggle is there, and
the success in bringing over a small
lot is nearly always an inducement
for the smuggler to try the game on
a larger scale. Men may and do
smuggle clothing now and then, but
1t Is the female sex which carries the
burden of guilt. The Custom House
officials at the ferry dock in this city
are as vigilant as officers can be, but
what chance have they against mon
ster hoop skirts and gigantic bustles.
They cannot stoop to peep under the
shawls, examine pockets, look into
baby carts and hold a crowd on the
boat, and so they must continue their
work with the knowledge that goods
are being smuggled, and that only one
grand and certain haul of their nets
can trap the guilty and frighten the
innocent SO that they shall never dare
10 pursue the business.
The net was drawn yesterday. The
officers commenced about two o'clock,
walking fifteen or twenty women up
stairs into the custom rooms, and |
handing them over to a woman to be |
searched. Every boat load which |
landed, for about three hours, was
treated in the same manner-that is,
all the female portion. Some were /
indignant, and appealed to their hus-
bands who vainly appealed to the /
custom officers. Others wanted to
faint away, but, after looking at the
planks and the dust, concluded not

pale, but none of them were permit
ed to escape. During the afternoon

Too Much for WhIskey Stills.

A certain town of Eastern Tennes-
see bOasted in having four whiskey
stills. The son of the man who start
ed the first one went into it one Sun
day morning and drank so freely as to
get drunk. He then went TO a dis
tant church, and made such a disturb
ance that they were compelled to turn
him out.
Going into the woods, he remained
alone until he got sober. He then re-
solved never to get drunk again, and
to work until the whisky stills were
all broken up.
Meeting with an active agent Of the
American Sunday School Union, he
secured his advice and assistance in
organizing a good Union Sunday
School near these four distilleries.
They have all since been closed. The
owner, as he shut up the last one for
want of business, said, ''That Sunday
School is too much for US. Anything
but this singing the Bible into folks.

THE GREAT AMERICAN DESERT,

One cannot help but speculate upon
what kind of men we Americans shall
! be when all these now desolate plajns
are filled when cities shall be found
where now only the lonely depot or
the infrequent cabin stands; when
the iron and coal of these regions
shall have become, as they soon must,
the foundation of great manufactur-
ing populations and when, perhaps,
the whole continent will be covered
by our stars and stripes.
No other nation has ever spread
over so large territory or diversified
a surfsce as ours. From the low sea-
washed shores of the Atlantic your
California journey carries you over
boundless plains which lie nearly as
high as the summit of Mount Wash
ington. Americans are digging silver
ore in Colorado, three thousand feet
higher than the highest point of the
White Mountains. At AtVirginia City,
in Nevada, one of the busiest eenters
OF mining, the traveller finds it hard
to draw in breath enough for rapid
motion; and many persons. when
they nrst arrive there, suffer from the
bleeding at the nose by reason of the
rarity of the air. Again, in Maine
half the farmers year is spent in ac-
supplies for the other and
frozen half; all over the Northern
States the preparation for winter is an
important part of our lives, but in San
Francisco the winter is the pleasant
est part of the year; in Los Angeles
they do not think it needful to build |
fire-places, and scarcely chimneys, in
their houses. And one people, speak !
ing the same language, reading the |
same books, holding q common re-
ligion. paying taxes to the same gov |
eminent, and proud of one common
dag, pervades these various attitudes |
and climates, intervisits, intercOm-
intermarries, and is, with
The potent help of the railroads, fused
more closely together as a
nation. What manner of man, think
you, will be the American of 1872, the
product of so many different climes,
If so various a range as to a latitude?

WEARING FLANNEL.-Them maJori-
ty of the people are not aware of the
beneficial effect of wearing flannel
next to the body, both in cold and
warm weather. Flannel is not so un-
comfortable in warm weather as pre-
judiced people believe. Frequent colds
and constant hacking coughs have left
me, since adopting flannel garments.
There is no need of great bulk about
the waist, which condemns the wear.
ing of flannel with those who prefer
wasp-waists to health, tor in that case
the flannel can be cut as loOsely-fitting
