Hunter says that there is not
a swallow that falls to the
ground without the notice of the
Almighty. Now, the bible teaches
us that not sparrow falls with
out His notice. If he can subsh-
tute swallow why not substitute
a turkey-buzzard or some other
bird Of prey? The difference in the
bird makes all the difference in the
world with the jury in this case;
hence, | insist upon the correc-
ton" The crowd and the jury
were laughing by this time, and
the spell Of Judge Hunters mas
terly eloquence was broken. He
attempted to go on, but gave it up
in despair, and the jury gave Kin
ney a verdict for five thousand
dollars.

0re,.Govarnsa children.

A girl that is never allowed to
sew, all Of whose clothes are made
for her and put on her, till she is
ton, twelve, fifteen, or eighteen
years of age, is spoiled. The mother
has spoiled her by doing everything
for her. The true idea Of self
restraint is to let the child venture.
A ohild's mistakes are often better
than its no mistakes; because when
a child makes mistakes, and has to
correct them, it is on the way
toward knowing something. A
child that is walked up every morn
ing, and never wakes himself up,
and is dressed, and never makes
mistakes in dressing himself; and
is washed, and never makes mis-
takes about being clean; and is fed,
and never has anything to do with
its food; and is watched, aud never
watches himself; and is cared for,
and kept all day from doing wrong
such a child might as well be i
tallow candle, perfectly straightand
solid and comely and unvital, and
good for nothing but to be burned
up,
