RELIGIOUS INFLUENCE. ''-
There is a neat aud convenient little
chapel connected with the school, where
every morning ut halt past six O'Clock,
pupils and teachers assemble for worship,
which is conducted by the Superintend-
cnt.
The Sabbath is choice day for the
pupils, though very faliguing one Tor
the teachers, Super eintrudent aud Mat
ron. they have morning prayers as on
other days, except they are half All hour
later. AT ] | A. NJ, all meet for public
worship, and some from neighboring
families meet with them. The services
are substantially the same AS in any of
our churches. DIR. Nichols gives the
address or sermon, unless there is some
preacher visiting the school; if 50 he, is
invited TO preach. At 3 2. NJ, all meet
again in the chapel as "a Sabbalh-school,
and l doubt whether you can find more
Interesting SunIay.school anywhere
The exercises close with brief but clear
and instructive review of both the preyi-
Gus and the present lesson by Dr. Mich
OILS.
Throughout the day the girls are dress
ed III tben best; ; an certain ones are seen
wearing badges, indicating that their de-
partment has been such as to entitle
them to that special honor.
AT the time Of my visit there was an
unusual degree of religious interest in the
school, and large number, especially of
the older girls, expressed d determination
to consecrate themselves to the Savior,
and hoped they should leave the school
and 60 out into society to work for
Christ, and exert a Christian influence
wherever their lot might be cast.
PRAY FOE THEM.
Will not Christians remember this
school, and pray especially for those
young men who are just beginning the
new life, but whose age is such that the
law will permit them to enjoy the pro.
lection of that institution but few
m n hs longer The past history of
sUme of them shows that, when they
leave the shelter and loving sympathy Of
that home at th, Spri 'gs, they will great
ly need the prayers oi Gods people to
shield them from the snares of those who
lie in wait TO deceive and destroy. Then
let Christian fathers and mo,l ers Try
for those young women as they woul,i

How TO BEAUTiFY YovR Itonns.-Tbe
first condition of success in furnishing
either large or small room is that there
must be no over-crowding. This is ab-
sdlute. When outline is lost, beauty, as
matter Of tact, is lost also. We must
all know many drawing rooms, in which,
perhaps, the worth aud beauty of each
individual thing is Indispuiablr, on enter
ing which the first thing that strikes one
is Il sense Of incongruity. What might
have been an art collection is degraded
Ia the level Of an old curiosity shop.
Most women are born with a love Of
beauty. But generally, unless this love
Is cultivated aud trained, it runs to

wings of light aud shallow, but the
scene which | have portrayed still comes
over me at times, with terrible distinct
ness. The oak yet stands at the base OF
the precipice; it's limbs are black and
dead, and its hollow trunk, looking up

for drink, is an emblem Oi noiseless de-
cay. A year ago, | visited the spot, and
the thought OF by-gone years came back
TO me-thoughis of the little Innocent
