“ THE APPLE IX THE BOTTLE,” NO. 2.
Fr n JlarlvuU
I pot in your last issue au article on
the yielding nature of the young apple,
cucumber, etc. I bin was ft beautiful
article, nnd id hopefully and fearfully
suggestive of the way in w hich the infant
mind may be improved or ruined. A
child may be brought up in bad com
pany and soon he will tall into the bad
habits with which he is surrounded, just
ns naturally as u stone falls to the earth
when thrown into the air. 1-iota boy
become a familiar intimate of those that
swear, and he will soon think it “gay
nnd grand,” “ large and luminous” to
swear as heartily, heavily and hugely,
ns nny of his “ comjieers.” Let him fre
quent those who roam at will through
orchards und melon-patches,and he will
soon steal as stealthily and as effectually
as the most expert of his company. 1 In
human mind is so susceptible of Impres
sions that a few “wrong visits" will
instill into the young mind more fool
ishness and mischief than the strict pa
rent can eradicate in a year. N\ hen a
child visits those who use spirituous i
liquor, ami is insisted on to partake, nnd
docs so a few times, his mind has recciv- j
ed a terrible bent, perhaps for life. 11l
tnc case of the ‘scucumber" mentioned
in the article alluded to, when the cu
cumber was cut oir it had to be closely
stopped up in the bottle to preserve it;
but when a child becomes poisoned by
a pestiferous atmosphere of bad com
pany, it does not need the precaution of
stopping up (unless it be in jail,) to keep
hisdevilish disposition at its highest pitch,
but you may then break the bottle, and
do all yon can to correct his deformity,
but too often is it the case that all appli
ances, all admonitions, and all efforts to
restore the mind and actions to their
proper standard are throughout life
fruitless.
On the contrary, give a child correct
impressions continually, and on all suit
able occasions portray to him the sad ef
fects of bad company and bad habits,
and he will, perhaps, in nine eases out
of ten, fall into the right channel and
form habits of honesty, sobriety and
virtue. We ouce knew a teacher, wliose
little son went with him occasionally to
the school house, the path to which led
through a peach orchard. The owner
of the orchard had not told the teacher
to take any fruit. The liitle bov said :
“ l*a, here are some nice pearlies, and I
want some of them.” “.No,'’ s-uid tin
teacher, “ they are not ours, and we must
not take any of them.” “ But, here
are some on the ground.” “No matter,
the ground is not ours, nor the peaches
either, and we must not take a single
peach.” The teacher very well knew
that tiie owner would not have cared
had he taken dozens of them ; hut h<
wished to impress, at an early age, tin
the principle of honesty on the mind o
his little son. The lesson was powerful,
pungent and effectual. The sou stil
lives, and has never been known t(
swerve from the path of honesty, and it
he is ever so unfortunate as to he put
in jail, or the chain-gang, we judge ii
will not he for stealing. Moral lessons
on almost every subject should he taught
to children very early. What is tin
cause of so many being lodged iujai.
and in the jicnitentinry ? One ven
fruitful cause is the absence of propei
early training. Our townsnredeafened
and their modesty shocked on publii
days by a lawless, Godless crowd o:
drunken, illbred, clownish men, drink
ing, swearing and lighting. Now, had
these drunken wretches had proper
training, they would have been in tin
pulpit, in the school-room, in the legis
lathe halls, in Congress, or at lea t tluv
would have been quiet, peaceable, sober,
industrious citizens.an honor to their pa
rent--, a blessing to their country, and in
general, bcneliictors of the human race.

The Oglethorpe Echo gays that then
once resided in that county a lady who.
at the age of sixteen years, from sonu
cause or other, stopped the use of hei
tongue, and until just before her death,
twenty years after, she was never heard
to utter a word. As her last hours wen
drawing near, she sent for some friend,
and dietated her will in a manner that
proved her sound in mind and fluent in
language. She spoke of many things that
o, c trred in the country during the appa
rent dumbness, but gave no reason fm
her conduct. An attempt was after
wards made to break her will ou ac
count of insanity, but it failed.

Harper’s Magazine: A friend of the
Drawer was a sojourner iu Ireland du
ring the past summer, and of course
\ i-sited the Lakes of Killarney. He
set out for the Gap of Dunloe,
which is a wild mountain pass, intend
ing to w alk through it to the upper lake,
which is the usual mode of approach
for the tourist. \V bile thus proceeding,
the little hut or cabin occupied by a de
scendant of the far-famed Kate Kear
ney, that dangerous beauty of long ago.
and situate at the base of a mountain,
was passed. As our friend approached
it. the guide—a genuine specimen of a
race which springs green and vigorous
from the " first flower of the earth and
first gem of the sea”—began his le
gends about the locality:
“ Do ye see that mountain ?” said he,
•• behind the cabin there ?—I mam
Kate Kearney's descin- hint’s) cabin.
Well, it's no less nor two thousand five
hundred feet high, and it is well known
that whin Kate Kearney from ttie top o!
it unloosed her hair, it touched the base
there fornintye.”
“Is it, possible ?” said our friend.
“ Indade, thin, it is, Sir; but shure
l see that you're from America, and as
for stories it’s not worth while to be
tellin’ tliim to one of your people.
Didn’t I come wid some gintleniin from
the State to this place a short time ago
and the tlivil such stories I ever heard
mmy life n3 they gave me. I wondber
if they could be tlirue ? And wondher
i:ig I have been, ever since I heard
thim, what wondherful places and things
ye must have there! I wondher if the
stories w'ere tlirue ?" again said the
guide, as if carried to the depths o<
doubt and reflection.
“What are the stories?” said our
friend.
“ Shure,” said the guide, “ I couldn’t
he tellin’ all the stories in a short ride
like this ; but one of thim has struck
my heart and soul, and I’ll niver forget
it—niver, niver! 1 wondher if it can
bo thruc!”
“Well, let us hear it," said our friend,
“ and we will decide.”
“ Well,” said the guide, “ afther 1
old them some of my tales, shure they
hegnn to <nve me back the wondhers,
and one of thim —a very decent-lookin'
man lie was, and not given I should
liink, to coorting’ the divil by lyin'—
b g.m to tell of the splindid hotels yez
have in America, and—l'll niver forget
it—told me that there was one in New
York called the Fifth Avenue Hotel,
.ind that it was three miles and a half
'vmj ; not only that, Sir, but that the
'Caitlurs rude round on ponies sarvin
he c/uests! I wondher if that was
tlirue!”
The Chronicle and
says: There is no bulldozing in Mas
sachusetts worth talking about, but
when the day of election came employ
ers told their employees in the kindest
manner imaginable that if they voted
for Butler they need not return to work.
Phis, according to the average New
England idea, was not intimidation,
but information. Culcha suggests many
heat little distinctions that never o;-
•urred to the southern barbarians when
they tried the same game with their la
borers.
The thermometer at Bloomington, 1 -
linois, during the recent severe weather,
reached about as low a [mint as in any
other section of the west, sometimes go
ing down as low as 1 ay-five degrees
b >low zero. A late dispatch from there
says: “Thecold is playing havoc with
game. Quail are picked up by the
bushel in the fields and rabbits are found
with their ears entirely fmzeu off. Hun
dreds of fat hogs have been smothered
by droves piling up for heat.”
The husband of a beautiful wife upon
returning home one day, was met by
one of his offsprings, all smiles, clap
ping his hands, and saying : “ l’a. Mr.
B. has been here ; he’s such a nice man ;
he kissed us all round, an 1 mother too !"
Give me kisses, darlint! Let them
be laid with power on me lips—wid a
report like heaven's tnnder whips, or!
the explosin' gun—ocb, let me have j
that wav. iverv won!
