to manipulate a portion or all Of the

the determination of this Office to

PARENTS AND CH1LDREN.-Dr Wayland,
in his work on Moral Science, makes use OF q
remark capable of much wider application than
he has given it, "a parent who assiduously
follows his children throughout the various
steps of their education will find his own
know Enowledge increased, and his own education
carried forward vastly beyond what he would
have conceived possible. There are very few
things which child ought to learn from the
study of which an adult will not derive great
advantage, especially it be goes, through the
process Of simplfcation and analysis, which is
50 necessary to communicate knowledge to the
young. A parents superiority cannot be re-
tanned, if, as soon as he enters upon active bu-
sness, he desist from all effort after intellec-
tual cultivation, and surrenders himself a slave
to physical labor, while he devotes his child to
mere mental cultivation, and thus renders in
tellectual intercourse between himself and his
children impossible"

RECIPE FOR MAKING NATURAL
BREAD.-Bread, light, sweet, delicious
and eminently wholesome, may be made
by mixing good unbolted wheat meal
with cold water, making paste of prop
er consistence, which can only be de-
termined by experiments, pouring or
dropping it quickly into a heated pan,
(that with concave departments is best,)
and placingit quickly. into hot oven,
and baking as quickly as possible with
ont burning The heat of the oven and
pan suddenly Goa gulates the gluten of the
outside, which retains the steam formed
within, and each particle of water being
interspersed with particle Of -four, and
expanded into steam, separates the par
ticles into cells, and being retained by
the gluten, which is abundant in this
natural flour, till it is cooked, the mass
remains porous and digestible, and, con-
tanning no carbonic acid gas, is whole
some when eaten Immediately, and of
course equally so on becoming cold.


But for family bread, if not eaten till
it has stood in pure air till the carbonic
acid gas in the cells is exchanged for the
oxygen of the air, there is no important
objection to bread made from good un-
bolted wheat meal, with fresh yeast. 1t
contains all the elements necessary for
feeding the muscles and brains, and for
producing all the fat and animal heat
required, and contains no materials es-
sentially deleterious; and bread thus
made from good superfine -four is only
negatively deleterious, having lost its
food for muscles and brains and it
need not, therefore, be discarded if at the
same meal these elements are supplied
in lean meat, fish, or cheese, or other
food containing similar elements; but
if eaten with butter or sugar only, and
nothing else, would soon make of US

THREE GOLDEN RULES. Industry,
honesty and economy, are three prin-
ciples which. if strictly adhered to by
any young man, will, sooner or later,
place him in independent circumstan
ces. They are entire strangers to the
world-fail. Industry and honesty are
two great stand-points, which give a
man a high reputation among his fel-
low creatures. They at once possess
the power of winning him friends-not
such as vanish when a cloud appears
but true, honest friends, Who are aware
of the great, invaluable service man
who possesses these qualities is to any
community. The next essential point
to advance his progress is economy. A
man may be getting a large salary, and
vet at the end of the year have nothing
left. This in itself shows the vast i'm
portance of practicing economy, if any
honorable and lucrative object Is sought
after. A spendthrift is a man with no
determination of character. He must
buy all that meets his gaze; his will to
resist is not brought into action, if in
deed such a will exists within his heart.
Therefore, he moves onward through
life until the end is exactly the same
as The beginning. This should induce

ONE OF THE WORLDS WREcKs.-A cor.
respondent in Paris writes: II have
myself seen a poor old woman, long
crazed, feeble in body, going about the
streets with an old guitar which had
lost all its strings bat one, and singing
in q horribly cracked voice some
snatches of old songs of forty years
ago. She was once, they tell me, re-
nowned singer in Paris, and sung more
than once before old King Charles X.
in the Tuneries; had led dissapated
and reckless life; had lost her high
place in her profession, and with It her
reason; and now imagined herself stili
the favorite of the multitude, and the
songs she sings the delight of all who
hear them. People give her a sou here
and there, and pass pitying on; and
the moving wreck still fails to warn
the other thoughtless ones from the
rock on which it shattered"

OLD AGE WITHOUT RELIGIoS.-Alas
for him who grows old without growing
wise, and to whom the future world
does not set open her gates, when he Is
excluded by the present. The Lord
deals so graciously with US in the de-
cline of our life, that it is shame to
turn a deaf ear to the lessons which he
gives. The eye becomes dim, the
tongue falters, the feet totter. all the

thine house in order, for the term OF

Nor APPRECIATED.-An exchange
says it is q wholesome fact that a man
having any truth in him, important to
be given to his generation, need not
much concern himself as to where to
speak it. How often are we sickened
with the twsddle that genius is not
appreciated. Young men part their
hair in the middle, roll down their
collars, indulge in exeesses until they
grow POLITICALLY pale, and 60 whining
among weak school misses about the
cold, cold world; and others dream
that if they had such position in such
city, such a professional mans prac-
tice, such o theatre of display, they
would make their mark. How true it
is that many a young poet, preacher
and student goes into this log. But 1t
is all a mistake. It is a shrewd old
world with which we have to deal, and
it generally knows the price of things.


An eminent divine once remarked,
and truthfully, too: There Is little
unappreciated genius, little worth
keeping that the world allows itself to
lose, and no uttered sentence worth re-
membering has ever been forgotten.-
The world may appreciate some things
too highly for a season, but in the long
run the value of ali things comes to be
.ascertained. If you have on your slate
a poem that is live vOieS, hath appre-
ciable articulate speech for the human
heart, you may print an edition of only
one copy on brown grocer's paper, and
give it to a bOot-black and go your way,
and live or die, but that true musical
thought of yours will surely get itself
repeated TO the generations to come
GO, walk up and down in the wilder
ness, and say your say and cry your
cry, and Just as sure as the truth is IN
it, it will empty the city and fetch the
people to your voice. Away with your
talk about not being appreciated

about his talents being neglected, We
may be sure that they deserve to be

al DEss You FoRDor ME.n-A certain
minister had promised little boy of hi.
that he should accompany him to church
on the following Sabbath. The little fel.

MENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PREsr-
DENT. S. b." the Washington corresDon-
dent of the New York World, gives the follow
ing description of Mr.. johnson in his commu-
nieative moods:


In those hours when the voice of the politi


cian Is silent in the halls Of the White House


ana there IS an interval OF peace and rest, he


VINO happens to sit alone with the President


can discern something of his unmasked nat


ural SELF Then he discloses what boiling
cauldron OF emotion, heated by a steady patri-
otto flame, his heart is. Then his attachment


to principle is revealed in the discussion of
Whatever grave subject may arise. Absorbed
in an interesting theme he often quits his
seat and walks rapidly to and fro across the
room. de talks quickly and spasmodically.


1t is curious to remark that while the main


idea iu his mind is as clear TO il as daylight
the process of reasoning from the idea is slow
and fitful. He seems to find it dificult- first


to define his thought and its relatives based
on or radiating from the idea perfectly to him
sell, and next, to condense his thought into


concrete sentences, He perseveres until he


has succeeded at last in making it plain to


his hearer. This inaptitude tor condenslng into
lew words on the instant the thought that he


desires to express is probably the chief reason


why many OF Mr.. Johnsons extemporaneous
speeches are so open to criticism. Give him
time, and his brain, whic IN tolls by itself sys-
temaucaily like powerful machine, will
evolve an argument pointed, condensed, and
admirable. Witness his state papers, which
are conceded by several OF his most preiudiced
enemies to be specimens of logic and diction
worthy TO be compared with those of Madison
and Jefferson. = I
The last suggestion loses something of Its


force from the well-known fact that Mr.. john
son does not write the messages which appear


with his signature.

A Coon MINING CoUNTRY.-The miners
about GAINESVILLE, Roaring River and Ar

this winter than usual Each mining season
tends to establish the truthfulness of the
theory that the mines on Cottonwood, about
GAINESVILLE, are of permanent character,
such as will require years to work out or
exhaust. 1t is also the belief of many expe
rienced miners that the branches of Cotton
wood Creek will pay most of the way up to
their source. From Janesville to the head of
the branches of Cottonwood is distance OF
forty to fifty miles, and the streams are lined
with fine gravel bars and flats, some of which
are known to contain gold, but have been but
little prospected. All the streams putting
down from the opposite side of Trinity Noun
tain have paid, or are now paying ricL, such
as Indian Creek, for instance. One reason
why the country about the head waters OF
Cottonwood have not been more thoroughly
being infested by bands of desperate Indians,
who had been driven to the mountains by the
settlers, and who retaliated whenever oppor-
tunity offered. Now that these Indians have
been pretty efectually cleaned out, the atten.
ton of miners begins to turn that way, and
we hear of plan being on foot to organize o
