On the 23d of June Prim**
Frederick Charles crossed the
Austrian frontier, and six dsya
later he was joined by the Army
ol the Elbe. They were at Gitts-
chin. On his left the crown prince,
with his army, was at Koenigin-
gof, a day's march away, while
the Austrians had retired in Koe-
BiggraU, leady for battle. The
plan of attack was very simple.
Prince Frederick Charles, wuh
his three corps, was to assault
Bcnedeck with his five, while Bit-
tenlicid was to fall upon the left
flauk of the Austrians and the
crown prince attack their right
But the crown prince was twenty-
five miles away, anil it was 4 in
the morning before Col. von Frank

The battle began at 8 o'clock

and Bismarck being on Ilia field.
1'he needle gun worked terrible
havoc among the devoted battal

their ground, and for a long lime
' the scales of battle hung pretty
evenly. For a time it seemed in

From Home and Farm.
A Scene la Serwaj.
Editor Home and Farm.
Could the children seattered
over the broad prairies of the
West, or the plains of the South,
to which Home and Farm maken
its way. see a farm ia Norway
they would, to nay the leant of it,
have new ideas of the possibilities
•f the soil. Some useful lessons
might also be learned- First, let
me give vou a glimpse of the situ
ation. Dwelling houses and oth
er necessary farm buildings are
closely huddled into one grasp.—
I uese ate hemmed iu on all •
by mountains in such close prox
iaiily to the homestead as act to
admit of a small field or lot lying
between. Where then, you would
naturally exclaim, is the farm?
Well, glance up the rugged mow3
tain side aud lieie and there on
level rot k tops which may he cor
ered with a few inches of soil, and
between the recks a spontaneous
crop of grass tuay be seen which
constitutes the hav field.
Between the opening* in the
dwai f birch you may chance in wee
au object moving at a distance of
scteral hundred feet up the moun
laiu side. It is tbe farmer cut
ting hi* hay crop. Not a blade - f
grai* will be left. Bui after so
reftiMy harvesting it, youjask
w will he transport it to bis
•lock stable. Well, the ingenuity
of this stalwart mountaineer j*
equal to the emergency. Bv ex
amining the scene more closely,
you will observe a wiie running
f o*n the sleep mountain wide to
the level below. The hay bales
aie slipped on this wire, down
which they *!ide to the desired
place below. Next you would
ptubably inquire for lliv'cornfield.
Here. too. you must let your eyes
wander ia a winding direction—
something like the meandering
course of s streamlet, here aod
there, between the boulder* and
rocky ledges, which form so great
a pail of the farm.
Oat* and barley are planted,
sometimes only a few grains iu a
place, wherever there is a posse
bilily ef their taking root. One
is considered lucky to have a level
spot of twenty yards square, for
cultivation. A liiangulur shaped
field, twelve feel on each side, er*n
stitutes a potato patch. A field
of three acres is the only one of
its size in a considerable extent
of space.
Hence the necessity of cullival
ing every foot of ground between
rocks of the mountain side or rav
ine. Rugged indeed must Ire this

himself upou treading the same
paths, cultivating the same fields,
aud even drinking from the same

surely more luviling homes than
those just described, and yet how
few desire to keep the old home
stead in which they were reared.
Tbe tree* planted by [nreaL.nl
band, the fields they cultivated,
tbe wells they dug. the houses
they built should endear the old
home.to the hearts of the children
in future years. If the iababi

homes, surely there is an cause
for the American to despise hie
patrimony. M. E. C.

leads to heaven.
-Mother.” What music in that
word! The chords of every heart
] vibrate to its sound. Wbat bead
dues not bow down with rever-
i ence at the thought of a mother's
; love? Even the haul hearted crim
iual, in his dismal cell, although
be may curs naught lor God or
man. bows his head with shame,
aud tears of guilt will fill his eyes,
and blushes of remorse cover his
face at the mention of his mother's
name. The thoughts of the past
come vividly before his mind.
He thinks uf her who sacrificed so
much and toiled so hard lor bis
sake. His hardened nalare is
softened, and with tears of repeu
tauce lie erics aloud, "Mother,
forgive me.” The dying soldier
ou the battle f'elil, amid strife and
the roar of the cannon, utters a
deep sigh al the sound of -Moth
er” uttered by the parched lips of
a comrade.
What sacrifices are like those a
mother makes for her children?
Brothers, sisters and friends may
forsake the erring one, but tbe
mother finds some redeeming
trait in her child and strives to
correct its waywardness, to which
all nature is inclined, and like a
star, guides him back to the path
uf truth aud morality.
The influence of tbe mother
mny be felt upon the whole world.
Well may she be called the "Evan
gel of Goodness.”
The memories of youth may
fade from our minds, as the flow
ers in the garden wither and die;
age, with its icifirmilies, may creep
U|H>n ns to take the place ofyoulb's
pleasure; but the recollection of
a mother’s love still remains a
precious jewel to brighten the
darkness of declining years.
An ideal home is where love,
joy and peace hann iD'Ze. where
dear relations mingle to unite
their sympathies Home without
these sympathies is but a name.
Unkind words and frowning
glances are borne’s bilteiest ene
luics.
A true character cannot be de
veloped without the sunshine of
love. How comforting to llir
wear}* one when his daily toil is
over to return to his bright ami
peaceful fireside at evening.—

A Serious error.
Young men arc apt to lose sight
of the fact that the fortunes sf
u>en Tar advanced in life had a be
ginning. ftom which they hava
grown unto their present propor
tions. The truth of what Benja
min Franklin wrote, that the first
five bundled dollars was tlie moat
difficult to acquire, has been ac
centuated bv the experience ol all
who have begun at the bottom and
built the foundation of a fortune.
But lliu law of compensation oper
ates to reward him who experi
ences the greatest difficulty in
laying the foundation, by inculca
ting iyssoDs ol economy and fix
ing habits ol persistent labor that
serve to con.ribule to his futura
success. These business habits
serve in two ways—they inspire
others with confidence which ior-
nishes opportunities fur the exer
cise or ability. Little things go
to make up the sum of all big
ones, and time is an clement of all
grow Hi. therefore, a young man
should early realize the impor
tance of economy aud of saving
small amounts to which ha must
habitually add, if he would lay tha
foundation of a torluuc. Ji will
involve a sacrifice for a few yeara,
when, after the success of inteili
gent efforts, be can then gratify
iiis taste. It will lie found that
the habit of econnmy, implanted
by early restraints, will cling to
one, and thrniigh a frugal bnt
comfortable life accumulations
will increase. The great mistake
that the young |>eople of the pres
ent day and geneiqlion make ia
by lo'dowing the dictates of a falsa
pride, and living Iwyond their
means. This is the sin of the age,
and by it comes the death of cber
ished hopes of independence at
the lime of lite when one should
indulge his ease. How much bet
ter it would be for a young couple
to begin tile by tigid economy,
making it tiieir aim to accumulate
al tbe expense of every other wish
or gratification, thaa, by spending
first their own. anil then other
people's money iu extravagant
living, be brought to reulixe the
hardships of poverty ie old age.
There is a set ions error that so
ciety makes; it encourages tbe
young to reckless extravagance
instead of selling the example of
economy and thrift. Thrift never
followed the fawning of society.
The whole fabric o! society ahonld
be reconstructed on the one idea
o! the gentility of economy.—Al
