■ ETOg°tolE KEMMN®®. “Cotne, gnther round the blazing hearth, And with reflection temper mirth ” Natural Religiim. —Come quietly awny with me, and we will walk up and down the narrow path, by the sweet-briar hedge ; and we will listen to the low song of the black bird, and the fresh air will cool our aching brbws, and we shall find comfort. To these things, fresh air attd the bird’s song, and the fragrance of the lovely flowers, God has giv en a blessing; like sleep, they are his medi cines—“ balm of sweet minds !” We will walk to and fro under the shade of those elms, and we will he calm ; bitter recollec tions shall be made sweet by the thought of his mercies; and in the midst of the sorrows we have in our hearts, his comforts shall re fresh our souls; and our minds shall he stored with many thoughts, sweet, like the perfume of these flowers. Home Education. —There are two mis takes current in society, both of which have been incidentally touched upon, but which deserve to be placed more directly before the reader. The fiist is, that the whole du ty of a parent, so far as respects education, is discharged by sending children regularly to school; the second, that although parents must attend to the physical and moral cul ture of their offspring, that their minds, at least, may he left wholly to the school-mas ter. The reader may feel that the former of these propositions has been sufficiently noticed, and l therefore remark only that school instruction never can supercede the necessity of vigilant parental teaching at the fire-side. If a comparison were to be made between the two, I should not hesitate to at tribute greater importance to home educa tion than to school education ; for it is be neath the parental roof, when the-heart is young and melted by the warmth of fire-side affection, that the deepest impressions are made; it is at home, beneath parental influ ence and example, that the foundations of physical, moral and mental habits are laid ; it is at home where abiding tastes are engen dered ; it is at home where lasting opinions are formed. Exercise. —Why are not our ladies walk ing or riding these fine, braciug, autumnal mornings 1 The fresh breeze of our moun tains would bring the rose to their cheeks, and vigor to constitutions enfeebled by the excessive heat of the past summer. Ladies are too apt to confine themselves at home ; and, as much as we admire them in their do mestic spheres, we love to see them bound ing under the excitement of exercise and drinking in the melody of nature, “ music whose melody is of the heart.” What can be more buoyant and refreshing—what more calculated to fit us for the duties of the day, its toils, cares and perplexities, than a morn ing ramble ? And then, too, the coffee and toast relishes so much more at breakfast!— Do not mope yourself at home; exercise freely, and you will soon have a “ new con stitution,if you are not “ against the amend ments” we propose. Freedom of Mind —We call that mind free which is not imprisoned in itself or in a sect; which recognises in all human beings the im age of God, and the rights of his children ; which delights in virtue, and sympathises with sufferings whenever they ate seen ; which conquers pride and sloth, and offers itself up a willing victim to the cause of man kind. We call that mind free which, is not passively formed by outward circumstances; which is not the creature of accidental im pulse—hut which bends events to its own improvement, acts upon an inward spring from immutable principles which it has de liberately espoused. We call that mind free which protects itself against the usurpations of society ; which does not cower to human opinions; which feels itself accountable to a higher law than that of fashion; which res- | pects itself too much to be a slave of the ina- j ny or the few. I Lying. — Lying supplies those who are addicted to it with a plausible apology for every crime, and with a supposed shelter j from every punishment. It tempts them to rush into danger from the mere expectation of impunity ; and, when practised with fre quent success, it teaches them to confound the gradations of guilt, from the effects of which there is, in their imaginations, at least one sure and common protection. It cor rupts the early simplicity of youth ; it blasts the fairest blossoms of genius; and will, most assuredly, counteract every effort by which we may hope to improve the talents und mature the virtues of those whom it in fects. Idleness. —There is not a man, or a thing ulive, hut has tools to work with. The bas est of created animalcules, the spider itself, has aspinning-jenny and a warping-mill and ; power-loom within its bead, the stupidest of ! oysters has a Papin’s digester, with a stone and lime-house to hold it in. Howunnatu ral, then, is idleness! AN’ EPITAPH. His Morn was full of promise—bright with flowers: Noon’s burning zenith saw him passion’s slave; With Eve came, health-fraught.'penitence, late showers, I And Night fell chilly on a Christian's grave. Maxims of Bishop Middleton —Persevere j against discouragements. Keep your tern- , I>er. Employ leisure in study, ami always lave work oil hand. Be punctual and mo- ! thodtcal in business,and never procrastinate. Never be in a burry. Pteserve self-posses- ; sion, and do not he talked out of conviction. I Rise early, ami be an economist of time.— Maintain dignity, without the appearance of pride ; manner is something with everybo dy, and everything with some. Be guarded i in discourse ; attentive and slow to speak. Never acquiesce in immoral or pernicious opinions. Be not forward to assign reasons to those who have no right to ask. Think nothing in conduct unimportant and indiffer ent. Rather set, than follow, example.— Practice strict temperance; and in all your transactions, remember the final account. A correct habit of living is principle, with out which no one can be happy.

After which he arose, buttoned up his surtout, and leisurely walked to the bar, said to the host, “ well, here I am, I’m ready.” “ Ready for what, sir 1” “ Ready to receive my kick, sir, that’s !/•” . , , , “ Kick ! wliat do you mean ?” said the surprised host. “ Why, I have got no money, sir.” “ Why did you not say so in the first place V’ “ Ah, my dear fellow, I’ve tried that once too often.” The excessive impudence so pleased mine host, that Jeremy was easily let off. Improved, Cookery. — To make a match. — Catch a young gentleman and Italy, the best you cun. Let the young gentleman he raw, and the young lady quite tender. Set the gentleman at the dinner table. Put in a good quantity of wine, and while he is soak ing, stick in a word or two now and then about Miss. This will help to make him boil. When getting red in the gills, take him out into the drawing loom, set him by the lady, and sop them both with green tea; then set them at the piano and blow the flame till the lady sings. When you hear the gentleman sigh, it is time to take them oil’, as they are warm enough. Put them by themselves in a corner of the room or on a sofa, and there let them simper together the rest of the evening. Repeat this three or four times, taking care to place them side by side at the dinner, and they will be ready for marriage vvheneveryou want them. After marriage great tare must be taken, as they are apt to turn sour. Lord Ashburton. —Some of our exchanges record the following “ extraordinaras,” by way of burlesquing the toady propensity of a class of persons or thigus who reside among us. “ Lord Ashburton took dinner at Forge town on Friday ! ham and eggs, with ginger pop.”—“ Lord Ashburton, dressed in gatn broon tights and gingham coatee, went on a fishing excursion at C'rnbsbiirg ; caught two eels and a catfish.”—“ Lord Ashburton gra ciously -condescended to kiss a bar-maid at the Blue Tiger, in this village on Saturday afternoon. The girl has since been admit ted into the first circles.” —“Lord Ashburton, the pacificator and friend of Amercia, dnied with Col. Stone, Mr. King, ourself, and other gentlemen, at Weehawken, yesterday. All were delighted with him.”—“ Lord Ash burton visited the custom-house, this mor ning, and shook hands very familarly with the officers, who were evidently pleased with the honor of a presantation to his Lord ship.” Paddy and the Surgeon. —A celebrated English Surgeon, finding a large pile of pav ing stones opposite to his door, on his return ing home one afternoon in his carriage, swore lustily at the pnvior, and desired him to remove them. “ Where shall I take them to V ’ asked the Hibernian. “To b-11!” cried the choleric surgeon. Paddy leant upon bis rammer, and then looking up in his face, said with an arch smile, “ Hadn’t 1 better take them to Heaven ? sure they’d he more out of your honor’s j way.” Tremendous Shaking. —An editor out west apologizes for the late appearance of his paper, by affirming that his jour., while j in a fit of the ague, shook so tremendously | as to throw down all the type in his office ! j The inhabitants for several miles around, felt, nr thought they felt the trembling of a young earthquake ; and every fourth pane of glass of the village windows, was thrown gingling into the streets ! “ Don’t you think my eyes look quite kill- j ing this morning 1” said a country dandy to a smart girl ; and he twisted his leaden vis. ! ionarios in the most cruel and fascinating manner. “ They remind me,” replied the i damsel, “ of a codfish dying of the tooth ache!” Be always as merry as ever you can For no one delights in a sorrowlul^iian. 3CD XT ii'lllt it SB IHB aIB&& ASI 7.* AOWEKTOBIEMIEMT®.
