Grass.

"Grass is the forgiveness of Ma
ture-hsr constant oenediction.
Fields trampled with battle. satur-
ated with blood, torn with ruts of
cannon, grow green again with grass,
and carnage is forgotten. Streets
abandoned by traffic become grass
grown like rural lanes, and are
obliterated.
"Forests decay, harvests perish,
flowers vanish, but grass is immor-
tai. Beleaguered by the sullen hosts
of winter. it withdraws into the i'm
pregnable fortress of its subter-
ranean vitality, and energies up on
the first solicitation of Spring.
Sovn by the winds. by wandering
birds, propagated by the subtle hor-
ticulture of the elements which are
its ministers and servants, it softens
the rude outline of the world. Its
tenacious fibers hold the earth in its
place. and prevent its soluble
components from washing into the
wasting sea. II invades the solitude
of deserts. climbs the inaccessible
slopes and forbidding pinnacles of
mountains, mcdifies climates, and
determines the history, character
and destiny of nations.
"Unobtrusive and patient, it has

HOME HAPPINESS.

Probably nineteen-twentieths Of
the happiness you will ever have.
you will get at home. The indepen-
dence that comes to a man when his
work is over and he feels that he
has run out of the storm into the
quiet harbor of home, where he can
rest IN peace with his family. is
something real. 1t does not make
much difference whether you own
your house or have one little room
in that house, you can make that
little room a home to you. You
can people it with such moods. you
can turn to II with such sweet fan
cies, that it will be to you the very
perfection of home. Against this
home none OF you should ever trans
gress.
Make your homes pleasant to
your children and there will be no
armies Of unemployed marching
through the country. In America
every sober, Industrious, honest
young man can find employment.
He may have to accept Of an hum
BILE calling. but will rapidly climb
the ladder. GAS the tvig is bent
the tree is inclined" and it is the
homes without pleasures or happiness
that sends the children upon the
streets in search Of more congenial
atmosphere than they find beneath
the parental roof. There are none
of US so poor but we can train a few
roses on the humble wall. and their
scent and beauty will long be re-
membered, and many a boy. instead
of going to loaf upon the public
will linger at home among
the flowers. Moral degradation
always begins at home. Honesty is
never gained or lost suddenly, or by
accident. but idleness feeds upon 1t
and will, in time, use up the last
vestige. The happy home. be it a
cottage or a mansion, furnishes no
recruits for any army of unemploy-
ed.

MOTHER.

OF all the words cherished in the
recollection of man-of all the names
held sacred in his memory, that OF
mother falls upon his heart with the
most sublim. influence. How sweet
the recollection in after years Of
mothers tender training, and who is
there that finds no relief in recurring
to the scenes of his infancy and
youth gilded with the recollections
Of mothers tenderness. And how
many hav. nobly owned. that to the
salutary influence. then exerted,
they must ascribe their future sue
cess, their avoidance Of evil. when
no eyes we're upon them. but which
rested on the heart, the warnings,
prayers and tears Of a mother.
Others may love as fondly, but
never again while time Ia ours,
shall any ones love be to US as fond,
as tender. as devoted, as vas that
of our dear old trembling mother.
Through helpless infancy her throb-
bing heart was our safe protection
and support. and through the ills
and maladies Of childhood, her gen.
tie hand ministered and soothed as
none other could. We feel ami
mated to struggle more manfully
in the great battle of life, when We
remember our mothers holy counsel
to US in childhood's early dawn
and in the slippery paths Of youth.
All ! those words of tenderness
those pious precepts softened by
mothers love-too much unheeded,
then disregarded--live now bright
ened in memory, and constitute our
sweetest reeollections. Her prayers
for US in childhood-her sparkling
crystal tears-made an impression
on our young mind as durable as
time. and even now they bid US walk
in the paths Of rectitude.
But alas I how little do a majority
Of us appreciate a mothers tender
ness while living How needless
are we in youth Of all her anxieties
and kindness But when she is
dead and gone when the cares and
coldness Of the world come wither-
ing to our hearts when we experience
how hard it is to find true sympathy.
how few will befriend US 10 our mis-
fortune, then we think OF the mother
that loved us and to her our hearts
turn yearningly.
