Letter to n Young Man.

Ny Dear 4 We received photograph
yesterday, which seems perfect, and reminds
Us that we have a grandson. We take de-
light in looking at it, because we see through
it one whom we love, and in whom We feel a
deep intorcst-an interest we cannot feel in
boys out OF Our family connection and yet,
| confess, we should ever feel great solicit
tude for all young men Of your age. Per-
sons Of mature and advanced age, who have
Travelled over the ground you are now on, can
see more easily than you the numerous and
fascinating temptations that bcsct you al
every step As yet, you have not had the
experience in matters Of this world, so
necessary 10 an honorable and useful life.
Many older than yourself are base enough to
rejoice could they see you, or any other
worthy young man fall and thus come down
to q level in disgrace with themselves. But
what can | say TO induce You to start in the
"strait and narrow path2" A good start
in running the race is necessary TO success
in winning the crown"
II is quite difficult for the young to see
the importance of forming good habits, and
only good, in early life. As ! have often
said, the use of tobacco and alcoholic drinks
should never be allowed, (except as a medi-
ciue,) as their nse strongly tends to weaken
"a uiNht" anu lH. 7lDh l""Ni0, ''iN Nt''il
wholly destroys both. 10 see the truth Of
this, you have only to look at the thousands
who have made themselves and their friends
miserable for life, by the use Of those poi
souous articles.
To these few lines Of advice we add,--
remember the Lords Prayer, Lead us not
into temptation" and ask God 10 keep you
in the way of life aud truth Your dear
mother, now at her heavenly home, most
earnestly prayed for you, and could you feel
as anxious for yourself as she felt for you,
we think You would soon become all your
friends desire--a useful Christian.
Your affectionate j.. ". 7.

Being accustomed TO walk out before
breakfast with my two sky terriers, it was
my custom to wash their feet in tub, kept
for the purpose in the garden, whenever the
weather was wet. One morning, when | took
up the dog 10 carry him to the tub, he bit
me so seyerly that | was obliged to let him
go. No sooner was the dog at liberty, than
he ran down to the kitchen and hid himself.
For three days he refused food, declining TO
go out with any member of the family, and
appeared very detected, with distressed
and unusual expression Of countenance. On
the third morning, however, upon returning
with the other dog, found him sitting by
the tub, and upon coming towards him he
Immediately jumped into it and sat down in
the water After pretending to wash his
legs he JUMPED out as happy as possible, and
from that moment recovered his usual spir-
its. There appears in this instance to have
been a clear process of reasoning, accompa-
MED by acute feeling, going on in the dogs
mind from the moment he bit me until he
hit upon plan OF showing his regret and
making reparation for his fault. Itevidently
occurred 10 him that attached great import
ance to this foot bath, and II he could
convince me that his contrition was sim
cere, and that he was willing to submit to
the process without a murmur, ! should he
satisfied, The dog, in this case, reasoned
with perfect accuracy, and from his own
promises deduced legitimate conclusion
which the result justified. London Spectator.

SHOCKING SPECTAcLE.-Last evening,
about sunset, when the sky was black with
an impending Storm there were seen ON the
steamboat dock at the foot of State street,
no fewer than sixteen children, between the
ages of four and eight years, all drunk.
They had obtained access TO some of the
vile liquor of the dram-shops, and drank
enough TO set them crazy drunk, or helpless.
Some were weakly trying 10 stab each other
with such weapons as they could reach. The
sight was whole sermon against liquor
drinking, and shown on the very spot where
the Good Samaritans hold their meetings.
The police were not in that neighborhood at
that time, and we do not know what was
done with the children. Indeed the whole
affair seems a strange one, but we give it just
as it was related TO us.-hWJord Times,

A Brussels Love Story.

There is very pretty love story told in
connection with the introduction of the
manufacture Of fine laces into Brussels. A
poor young girl, named Gertrude, was dying
for love Of a young man, whose wealth pre-
cluded all hopes of marriage. Ono night as
she sat weeping, lady entered her cottage,
and, without saying a word, placed in her
lap cushion, with its bobbins filed with
thread The lady then, with perfect silence,
showed her how to work the bobbins and
how to make all sorts of delicate patterns
aud complicated stitches. As daylight ap-
preached, the maiden had learned the art,
and the mysterious visitrcss disappeared.
The price Of the maiden's lace soon made
her rich on account of its valuable patterns
and she was able to marry the object of her
love. Many years after, while living in lux
ury, with her numerous family about her,
She was startled by the mysterious lady en-
terirg her comfortable house-this time not
silent, but looking stern. She said Here
you enjoy peace and comfort, while without
are famine and trouble. helped you you
have not helped your neighbors. The angels
weep for you, and turn away their faces"
So the next day Gertrude went forth with the
cushion and bobbin in her hand, and going
from cottage to cottage, she offered to teach
the art She had so mysteriously learned So
they all became rich, and their country also.

NOBLE UrTERANcEs.-A Pennsylvania
woman thus discourses in the New York
Tribune. We trust and believe there are
many like her. How glorious to be a wo-
man-the mother of mem to understand
ones prerogatiyes and be able to seize them
without noise; TO have husband who
counts you in value above rubies, and whose
heart doth safely trust in you; TO have as a
heaven appointed task the moulding of the
hearts andconsciences of sons and daughters
to feel that by Gods grace you will be able to
do IL; to know that you have leftn womanly
endeayor undone to found the principles Of
your children upon the pattern of the Rock
that is higher than us ALL Six sons have /,
two of them men; four daughters are mine
two just budding into womanhood they
are my companions, yea my unwilling in
structors in the law Of uprightness. Do
have TO seek for an affinity Not /. Am |
lonesome Never. Do | sigh for the in
