A Sensible Girl.

"Some months ago." says writer,
81 met a young English woman who
came to this city to marry Il young
man to whom she was afiianced in
England, and who had come TO this
country two years previous to engage
in business. She was to marry him
at the home Of q friend of her moth
er's with whom she was staying.
During the time she was making up
her wedding outfit, he came to see
her one evening when he was just
drunk enough to be foolish. She was
shocked and panied beyond measure.
She then learned, for the first time,
that he was in the habit Of drinking
frequently to excess. She im,nedi-.
ately stopped her preparations, and
told him shs could not marry him.
He protested that she would drive

Early Education.

The time to educate comes with
the first conscious being of early in
fancy, and no portion of life can be
more favorable for education in many
important respects, than the first
seven years of life. All that one
sees or hcars-all the surroundings of
childhood leave their indelible i'm
press on the tenderest years of child
hood. If this be so, what can we
expect from the maturity of age,
where childhood is reared in rude
novels, amidsfilth, and if clad at all,
clad in rags and left without the ten
der caresses of fond affection, or
suitable food for body or mind? 1t
is true that mothers must be mainly
the educators of childhood, but how
can they teach. what,they never knew
themselves2 How can they care for
the immortal interests committed 70
their trust when obliged to work in
the field during the day in hoeing
cotton and corn to get bread for
themselves to eat? Many mother
in this section Of country works for
five dollars per month and rations.
We have heard of mothers Of the
great and good, but these mothers
were not left themselves without adj
vantages and opportunities to edu-
cate their children. Culture does
not come from careless neglect, nor

WASTED POWERS. - Among the
numberless marvels at which nobody
marvels, few are more marvellous than
the recklessness with which priceless
gifts, intellectual and moral, are
squandercd. Often have gazed with
wonder at the prodigality displayed
by nature in the cistus, which unfolds
hundreds Of thousands of it's starry
blossoms, morning after morning, to
shine in the light Of the sun for an
hour or two and then fall to the
ground. But who among the sons
and daughters of men-gifted with
thoughts which wander through eter-
nifty, and with powers which have
the godlike privilege of working good
and giving happinesss-who does not
daily let thousands Of these thoughts
drop to the ground and rot2 who
does not continually leave his powers
10 dragSle In the mold OF their own
leaves9 The imagination can hardly
conceive the heights Of greatness and
gicry to which mankind would be
raised, if all their thoughts and ener-
gies were TO be animated with a liv-
ing purpose. But, as in forest of
oaks, among the millions of acorns
that fall every autumn, there may,
perhaps, be one in million that will
grow into q tree-somewhat in like
manner fares it with the thoughts and
feelings Of man. What, then, must
be our confusion when we see all
these wasted thoughts and feelings
rise M in the judgment and bear wit
ness against. us!

A True LADY.-Beauty and style
are not the surest passports to respec-
liability. The best women that the
world has ever seen have presented
the most unprepossessing appearance.
A woman's worth is to be estimated
by the real goodness Of her soul, and
purity and sweetness Of her charac-
ter; and woman with kindly dispo-
sition, and we'll balanced mind and
temper, is lovely and. attractive, be.
her face ever so plain, and her figure
ever so homely. She makes the best
of wives and the trucst of mothers.
She has a higher purpose in living
than the beautiful yet vain, supercili-
Gus, woman who has no higher ambi-
tion than TO aaunt her finery in the
streets so to crafty her inordinate
vanity by extracting fattery and
praise from society whose compli-
ments are as hollow as they are in
secure.

Moral Courage in Daily Life.

"Moral Courage" was printed in
large letters as the caption of the fol.
lowing items, and placed in a con-
spicuous place on the door Of syste-
matte merchant in New York, for
constant reference, and furnished by
him for publication:
Have the courage to discharge a
debt while you have the money in
your pocket.
Have the coarage to do without
that which you do not need, however
much your eyes may covet it.
Have the courage to speak to a
friend in a seedy coat, even though
you are in company with rich one,
and richly attired.
Have the courage to speak your
mind when it is necessary that you
should do so, and hold your tongue
when it is prudent that you should
do 80.
Have the courage to own that you
are poor, and thus disarm poverty of
its sting.
Have the courage to tell man why
you refuse to credit him.
Have the courage to cut the most
agreeable acquaintance H0you have
when you are convinced that he lacks
principles friend should bear with
a friends infrmities, but not with
his vices.
Have the courage to show your
respect for honesty, in whatever guisc
it appears, and your contempt for
dishonesty and duplicity, by whom
soever exhibited.
Have the courage to wear Your
old clothes until you can pay for new
ones.
Have the courage to prefer COM
fort and propriety to fashion in all
things.
Have the courage to acknowledge
your ignorance, rather than to seek
for knowledge under false pretenses.
Have the courage in providing an
entertainment for your friends not to
exceed your means.
