house for revenge; they are not Civ
en- for spite, nor even in anger; they
are given partly for punishment, bat
mainly by way of impressive remind
or. and protector against q repetition
of the offense. The interval between
the promise of q whipping and its
lpfliction is usually an hour or two.
By that time both parties are calm,
and the one is judicial. the other re-
ceptive. The child never goes from
the scene of punishment until it has
been loved back into a happy-heart-
edness and joyful spirit. The
spanking is never cruel one. but is
always an honest one. It hurts. II
it hurts the child, imagine how il
must hurt the mother. Her spirit is
serene. tranquil. She has not the
support which is afforded by anger.
Every blow she strikes the child
bruises her own heart. The mother
OF my children adores them-there
is no rilder term for it; and they
worship her, they even worship any
thing which her band has made ga
cred. They know her for the beet
and trnest friend they ever had, or
ever shall have; they know her for
one who never did them any wrong.
and who cannot do them y wrong;
who never told them o lie, nor the
shadow of one; who never deceived
them by even an ambiguous gesture,
who never gave them an unreasona-
Bile command, nor ever contented
herself with anything short of per-
feet obedience; who always treated
them as politely and considerably rs
she wonld the oldest and best in the
land, and has always required Of
them gentle speech and courteous
conduct toward all, Of whstever de-
gree, with whom they CHANGED TO
come in contact; and they know her
for one whose promise, whether OF
reward or punishment, is gold, aud
always worth its face to the utmost
fartbiug. In word they know her,
and know her. for the desres. and
best mother that lives = and by a
long. long way the wisest.
You perceive that l have never got
down to where the mother in the tale
really asks her questions. For the
reason that cannot realize the si,a-
alton. The spectacle of that trench
erously raised boy, aud that worsly.
namby- pamby father, aud that weak.
silIy. namby-psmby mother. is enough
to make one ashamed Of his species.
And, il l could cry, would cry for
