[From the German.] co, marvellous and deep, s the world in p'aceful sleopl ods alone all trembling sigh, spirit passed by. life within mo rlso, I'ixioua sorrow swiftly flies tin dayspring’s glorious light, ill darkest shades of night., >pe- sure fixed on heaven my home, in through the world I’ll roam; * in it o'er time’s stream to be dgo which leads, uiy God, to thoe. •uld my harp forgetful praise fleeting joyB with traitor lays, 1 its chords, anil evermore Iding silence I’ll adore! —Golden Hours il uni i Ii suit Exercise. Up to the nge of eight or ten years I do not soo that there need bo great dif ference in the training of both sexes. I’lenty of playground space, uimplo drill exorcise and rope-skipping, swings, and ho on, should be provided and enoour* aged h.h lunch as possible). It is after this period that tho great mistakes in tho phy sical education of girls aro likely to oo- cur,and do still occur,notwithstanding all that has been said and written on the subject. At many ladies’ schools the humdrum daily walk, and only then when tho w eather is fine, is almost the only kind of exorcise in which tho girls are allowed to indulge. It is quite true that nowadays wo hoar a good deal about cal isthenics, hut I very muoh fear that, like a good many other items in the Bhowy prospectuses of ladies’ schools, they do not amount to very muoh in the long run. Unfortunately, too, the tyranny of dress and fashion interferes to a very serions extent with many forms of active exer cise, which, while they aro seemly enough in themselves, would mako growing girls more graceful and certainly muoh more vigorous iiuil healthy than many of them are. Long dresses, tight dresses, tight lacing (although that is fast dying out), high-heded boot s and othor vagaries of fii.siieoi, urc all of them calculated to im pedo free movement of tho limbs, and to prevent full and equable bodily devel opment. There is good reason to hope that the teaching of physiology and the laws of health in girls’ schools, which happily is now becoming more general will assist very much in demonstrating tho many and grave errors which have been committed in Ibis direction. Mean while, iUcaunot bo too strongly enforoed that, in order to become healthy women, and, above all, healthy’ wives and moth ers, tho physical education of girls must reeoivo a far larger share of attention thau it lias hithorto done; and amongst suitable exercises whioh specially oom- moud themselves, I may mention battle, (hire au.l shuttlecock, light dumb-bell ex orcise, rope-skipping, lawn tennis, Bad minton croquet, and, last of all, dancing, To quote tho eloquent words of the late Canon Kingsley: ‘’If the promoters of higher education for women will oompel girls to any training analogous to our public school games; for instance they will insist on that most natural and wholesome of all exercises, dancing, in order to develop the lower half of the body; on singing, to expand the lungs and regulate tho breath; and on some games—ball or what not—which will in sure that rmsed chest, upright carriage, aud general strength of the upper torso, without which full oxygenation of the blood, and therefore general health, is impossible; if they will sternly forbid tight stays, high heels, and all which in terferes with free growth and free mo tion; if they will consider carefully all whioh has been written by Mr. Chadwiok and others: and accept the certain physi cal law that, in order to renovate the brain, thut day by day the growing crea ture must have plenty of fresh air and play, and that tho child who learns for four hours, will learn more, and learn it more easily, than the child who learns for tho whole eight hours; if, in short, they will teach girls not merely to understand tho Greek tongue, but to copy somewhat of tho Greek physical training, of that music and gymnastio which helped to make tho cleverest race of tho old world the ablest race likewise; then they will earn the gratitude of the patriot and the physiologist, by doing their best to stay the downward tendencies of the physique and therefore ultimately of the morale, in the coming generation of women.” There can bo no doubt, whatever that the delicate health from which number* of grown up girls suffer is, in large meas ure, owing to tho utter want of any ade quate amount of exercise, calisthenics notwithstanding, during the period of their school life; and tho aversion to ac tivity of any kind—exec-pt perhaps it be to dancing—which has thus been foster ed becomes habitual to them, so that in after years they become more or less in- validish, and are seldom out of the doc tor's bauds. Any now game, therefore, such as lawn tennis and Badminton,which tempts ladies to take active exercise, should be hailed as a national benefit;and the latest novelties, “rinking,” possesses special advantages in this respect,because it can be practiced in all weathers, I have been informed, and I believe it to be quite trne, that since the rinking mania set in, the practices of some of the lead- ing physicians and doctors, in a cetain fashionable town, have fallen off very considerably, and though one cannot help sympathizing wilh these professional gentlemen. I think we may fairly con- gratulate the patients.—[ English Physi cian. Faith the Huree of Love. Faith is one of the best friends of love, as jealousy is its wont enemy. It has been said, and with some truth, that no one loves who finds it impossible to be jealous. Yet it is also trne that one does not love well without feeling an almost perfect faith in the objeot of hi* loft. While love is in its earliest stages, while there is no fixed assurance of affection, a look, a word, a whisper, will fire the anx ious heart with the most jealous flames; “trifles light as air” will be as “proofs of holy writ,-’’ and he is always ready to say, “she is flirting with me,” and she is only apt to believe, “that, after all, he does not love me.” But when once two peo ple understand each other, when they have exchanged the vowa of betrothal, or are actually married, faith should fold herwiDgsin their hearts, and neither should dare to doubt the other lightly. It is rarely that a man does doubt a woman. Our lives are spent under the protecting shadow gof home. Only a few of the many maids and matrons whom we know have any secrets in their lives. In re spectable society women are almost all good, and men know it. But men go out into their world, leaving ns to guss at their whereabouts. Rumor accredits them with “ways that are dark and tricks that are vain,” and women tell each oth er dreadful tales about them, as children tell each other ghost stories in the twi light. So, if a woman’s love be a slight thing—a compound of admiration and tickled vanity, as it sometimes is—let a whisper he breathed, a shadaw cross her path, and away goes faith, and jealousy sits yellow-eyed upon the threshold of her heart and drives out love. But if she loves well—if it is the man himself whom she holds dear, and not his outward seem ing—if she knows that he loves her as well, and there is more between them than flattery and kisses—why, then wo man is more Btrong of heart than man, and she needs only the assurance of his lips *0 believe him true, though the whole world whispered slanderous false hoods to her, and a host of jealous wo- men strove to poison her happiness. Faith is nurse to love; without her he starves to death; and the moment one really doubts another it is only a memo ry of affection that lingers—not the af- feotion itself. That is banished, and on ly when doubt departs will it return again. The world is full of slandermon- gers, and there are many who hate to see others happy. Only with the shield of perfect faith upon her bosom can the wife guard herself from those enemies who would drive love from her home, and I think that if true love has bound her to her husband, ahe will find it there without seeking for it, and will wear it all her life.

Life is the jailor, death the angel sent to draw the unwilling bolts and Bet free.—[Lowell. The happiest of pillows is not that which lore first presses; it {is that which death has frowned on and passed over.— [Landor. In sadness then I ponder how quickiy fleets the hour of human strength and action, man’s courage and his power.— [Bryant. There is a time, we know not when, a point we know not where, that marks the destiny of man to glory or despair.—[Ad dison Alexander. There is no flock however watched and tended, bnt one dead lamb is there! There is no fireside, howe’er defended but has one vacant chair.—[Longfellow. We know that we are endued with ca pacities of action, of happiness and mis ery; for we are conscions of acting, of enjoying pleasure and suffering pain. [Butler. If our Creator has so bountifully pro vided for our existence here, whioh is but momentary, and for oar temporal wants which will soon be forgotten, how much more mnst he have done for our enjoy ment in the everlasting world.—[Hosea Ballow. No men deserve the title of infidels so little as those to whom it has usually been applied; let any of those who re nounce Christianity write down fairly in a book all the absurdities they believe in. stead of it, and they will find that it re quires more faith to reject Christianity than to embrace it.—f Col ton. To Bbown Floub.—Spread it npon a tin plate set upon the stove, or in a very hot oven, and stir continuously after it begins to color until it is brown all throngb. Keep it in a glass jar covered closely and it will be always ready for use. ^ How to Brown Butter.—This is a very simple receipt, bnt a very useful one. Put a lump of batter into a frying pan according to the amount of gravy desired. When it is melted dredge browned floor over it Bnd stir to a smooth batter until it begins to boil; use it to color gravies, and in fact, it can be made into a sauce for almost an} thing; and if the sance is required to be strong and good, celery, onion, vinegar, brown sugar, cayenne or a glass of wine may be added, bat that will be aooording to the purpose required for. Collabd Sprout*.—Pick over careful ly, lay in cold water slightly salted for an hour, shake in a cullender to drain and put it into boiling water, keeping at a fast boil nntil tender. A piece of pork seasons them pleasantly, bnt in this case put the meat on first, adding the spronts when parboiled and cooking them to gether. Boil in an uncovered vessel; drain very well; ohop and heap in a dish, laying the meat on top. Died Bread.—Put three quarters of a pound of loaf sugar into a saucepan with a quarter of a pint of water, over a steady fire until it is dissolved; beat six eggs with a whisk in a pan; when the su gar boils, pour it gently on the eggs, keeping it W9ll beat till cold; then stir it into three quarters of a pound of fine sifted flour; have your frames prepared, fill them three parts full with the batter, sift sugar over them, and bake them in a steady oven. Orange Tabts.—Grate a little of the ontside of an orange, squeeze the juice into a dish, put the peel into water, and change it often for four days, then put it into a saucepan of boiling water on the fire; change the water twice, to take out the bitterness, and, when tender, wipe and beat them fine in a mortar; boil their weight in doable refined sngar into a syr up, and skin it, then pat in the pulp and boil all together until clear; when cold, put it into the tarts, squeeze in the juice, and bake them in a quick oven. Con serve of orange makes good tarts. Minced Fowl.—Take the remains of a cold roast fowl and ont off all the white meat, which mince finely, without any skin or bone, bnt put the bone, skin and etceteras into a stew pan with an onion, a blade of mace, and a handful of sweet herbs tied up; add nearly a pint of water; let it stew for an hour, and then strain and pour off the gravy, putting in a tea spoonful Worcestershire sauce. Take two hard boiled eggs and ohop them small; mix them with the fowl, and salt, pepper and mace, according to taste; pnt in the gravy, also half a teaspoonful of very fine- minced lemon-peel, and one table- spoonful of lemon-juice, two tablespoon fuls of flour, made into s smooth psste with a little cold water, and let the whole jnst boil. Serve with sippets of toasted bread. Some persons prefer cayenne to oomnion white pepper. The summer fly that in July stung you on the end of your nose at meal times seventy times in a minute, is now ready to crawl under your blanket* at night and call yon man and brother. —Only a few years ago a man nssd to put the seal of affection on her lips. Now be had to put it on her back, and if it isn’t trimmed with otter she makes trou ble. The new style costs more, bnt it can't compete with the other kind for real comfort. Clerical Anecdotes. A Scotch minister, who was famed for his dryness in the pulpit, called on one of his aged hearers, and, as usual, par took of a cup of tea. He remarked to the guidwi.fe that her teapot ran slowly. “Deed, ay,” quo’ the guidwife, “it’s like yersel; it has an unoo bad delivery. ” A tale is being told of one the ablest Congregational ministers in England, and a thorough Englishman, bat whose com plexion is very dark. He delivered an eloquent and most effective speech at a missionary meeting. At the olose a lady said to the Secretary, “I gave up sub scribing to the Sooiety because I did not think the missions did good, now I see what the graoe of God has done for that poor heathen I will begin again.” Learned Sermons and Stuped Hkab- ebs.—The biographer of the late Dr. Bloomfield relates that on one oooasion, while yet a curate, he preaohed in a Suf folk village church from the text, “The fool hath said iu his heart, there is no God;” and having, as he supposed, made himself very intelligible, and wishing to ascertain the effect of his disooarse, he ssked one of the intelligent hearers, as he left the ohnrch, what he thought of the sermon, receiving for answer, “Well, Mr. Bloomfield, after all you have said, I do believe there be a God.” The Archbishop of Canterbury's Fru gality.—The frugal habits of that emi nent Scotchman, the Archbishop of Can terbury, have given ocoasion to a char acteristic aneodote. During the fonr days’ meeting of Convocation the Right Reverend members of the Upper House consumed a daily lunch which involved the registrar in a charge of £47. The registrar presented the account to the Arohbishop for the payment of his pro portionate share of the £47. “My share!” exclaimed his grace—for so the story goes—“I had no ahare. I brought my own lunch—you know I always bring my own lnnoh.” The registrar explained that vianda for lunch had been consumed to the amount of £47—that he had paid the bill, and that he was collecting an equally apportionate quota from each of their lordships. His grace replied to this ef fect: “Well, I did not taste the lunch, and I onght not to pay for it; bnt as yon have paid the money for my share, I mnst reimbnrse you for this time; but mind I will not do so again, for yon know that I always bring my own lunch wherever I go, and there’s the silver lun cheon box I’ve carried it in many years; so you will remember next time." New Brooks Sweep Clean.—“You bad a good congregation last Sunday, sir.” said a loquacious local to one of his mih- isters, as he referred to the first service of the latter in the town chapel. “Yes,” was the quiet reply. “It will be very different,” continned the loquacions local, “before three years are over.” Small people will still continue to say such nice things, bnt ws have often found them to be false prophets. A vioar onoe told his bishop how he oonld preach without preparation; just a few minutes before the service he could get ready in the vestry, and think noth ing of it. “That’s just a hat your people have thought of it all along,” said the bishop. Dr. W. M. Taylor, in his fifth leoture on “Preaching,” to the Yale Btndents,de clared that the clamor for brevity in ser mons is a bad omen for the churches. “No great theme,” he Baid, can be treat ed in fifteen minutes. Therefore brevi ty means the banishment of doctrinal in struction and systematic exposition—and, as a consequence of that, spiritual dwarfs and a piety from which manhood has dis appeared.” STOVES AND TIN WARE.
