Sf fittiftew (ttmUHtuq Make your Home Beautiful* Make your home beautiful—bring to it flowers; Plant them around you, to bud and to bloom, Let them bring light to enliven your gloom. Mske your own world—one that never has sorrowed, Of music, of sunshine, and gold summer air, A home-world whose forehead care never has furrowed, And whose cheek of bright beauty shall ever be fair. Make your home beautiful—twine round it* portal Wreath* of the jessamine, delicate sprays Of red-fruited woodbine, with joy immortal, That blesses and brightens wherever it stays. Varied verbena or sweet migoionette, Still may bring bloom to your desolate bower, Still may bo something to love and to pet. Make your home beautiful—gather the roses That hoard up the sunshine with exquisite art, Perhaps they may pour as your darkness clo- That soft summer sunshine down into your heart. If you can do so, oh! make it an Eden Of beauty and glad nets—remember ’tis wise, 'Twill teach you to long for that home you are needing, That Heaven of beauty beyond the blue skies. Call up your tittle ones: teach them to walk Hand in hand with the wandering angel of beauty, Encourage their spirits with nature to talk. Gather them 'round you, and let them be learning Lessons that drop from the delicate wings Of the bird and the butterfly—ever returning, To Him who has made all these beautiful things. Make home a hive where all beautiful feelings Cluster like bees and their honey-dews bring ; Make it a temple of holy revealing*, And love its bright angel with “abadowiog wings." Then shall it be when afar on life’s billows, Wherever your teropest-toss'd children ara flung, They will long for the shade ol the house weeping willows, And sing the sweet song which their mother had sung. fob25-ly CONFECTIONARIES.

We have seen many letters written by ladies, and many patriotic a*ntimcnl*and expression* uttered by them, breathing a spirit of patri otic devotion to ibeir country, that shed addi tional lustre on the women of ’76; but a sen timent uttered by a lady at our depot on Tues day of last week, when the Americus Volun teer Rifles were about to depart for the thea tre of war, deserves to be preserved in litters of Gold. Just before her son—a beardless, slender, delicate looking youth—stepped aboard the care, she addreseed him in these words, pla cing her hand upon bis shoulder: 44 Thomas, 1 thank my God that 1 have a son old enough and brave enough to fight for his oountry.— Go, my son, and prefer death to dishonor.
