(Wd I tnrn heck ihv hand*
To fchere they indexed at my boyhood’s
prime.
And rpdTd I gather np life’s scattered sands.
And change the now for then,
I would not startle at the solemn chime
That strikes the years three store and ten.
0. clock, nnnh thy dial-p'ate
The ceaseless bunds go round and round,
Noiseless ns if mi wheels of fate,
W iihnut a second t eat or sound—
Aronnd and 'round forevermore
Still as the waves that lash oblivion’s shore
Oelwck of time'
I'm listening to Ihv solemn chime
On this mv seventieth natal dnv.
Dreaming and dreaming the shadowy past—
away.
Far hack to flat primeval nr rn.
When I. a frail and helpless child, was born,
And launched on life’s tempestunns sea.
With germ of mind, and will, and soul’s
dread mystery.
Thou dread nnknown,
Before whose presence my.iad years have
flown.
Vouchsafe to me.
The hungering soul’s dread mvstery.
Are these fond hopes in vain ?
May not the old be yonng again T
“0 child of immortality, take hope, take
hope ;
Tbon canst not always grope
Thy way in darkness, when to thee
Thy father’s voice fills all eternity ;
Door wandering, erring child come, coma to

What if ’tie so ? Then these fond hopes are
not in vain, •
For death it life, and age is ynnth again.

Wooiid’i Needs.
BY MRS. VIOLA JACKS'Iff.
The great revolution in the tide of affairs,
brought abont by the late war. necessitates a
corresponding revolution in the education,
work and general pursuits of woman.
What is her first need ? A thorough ed
ucation—education in its fullest and truest
tense. Not merely a superficial knowledge
of a few text hooks, a peep into the musical
and drawing departments, or a smattering of
Fieneh and the graces—in a word, not
merely to dress, dance and adorn the parlor.
These fal-e ideas, so poisonous to the very
germ of imp womanhood, and as destructive
1«> the sex as was the rain of fire and brim
atone npon Sodom and Gomorrah, have
been, during the last decade, rapidly explod
ing ; and parents and guardians have awak
ened from that fearful educational slumber
and are beginning to realize the true needs ol
daughters and wards. Educate woman as
you do man. Give her not only the accom
plishments, hut a knowledge of the sciences.
Give her broad and liberal views; fit her for
the counting room as well as for the heaith
atone ; for the school-room as well as for the
d'awiiig-roGtn. Neither of these should be,
nor need be, neglected iu this day of public
schools, or even when parents have only the
mean* of a meagre support. (Alas! too
many parent* do not see this matter in its
true light.)
Why not educate woman as you do man,
as far as if is possible for her lo make prac
ticable use of such an education ? Oertninly
women urn at once physically and morally
unfilled to go into the field with ehoin and
compars. Nor do we desire especially to
have her a scientist and the like. But the
emergencies upon us demund for her a wider
score for employment and usefulness, and
ehe must too frequently emerge from the
sweet retirement of the’ hearthstone, which
Goti design'd her to adorn, and go upon tbe
street to compete with man in tbe great
struggle for a support True, woman, like
the modest violet of tbe wood, derives her
awfetnese from the shade, and it ia a matter
of regrat that she must be forced from her
biding place and push her frail barque out
opon the great seelhirg sea of life. And
unless she has been framed to meet these
emergencies when they must come, the barqne
will sink with its cargo—a clinging, helpless,
timid woman
Admitting that the training of the mind
depends e.ntiiely upon the teacher, and that
heart-culture depends partially upon him,
there is a work, a great work for the parents
to do. A teacher con train successfully (if
he has even ordinary material npon which to
woik.) the child of illiterate parents But
he may toil and strive ad infinitum without
success to train the heart if the child is de
prived of proper home influences. This
duty, so peculiarly binding upon the parents,
they need not hope escape through tbe me
dium of tuition bills. They may sit in slug
gisb lethargy, unmindful and unconscious of
the daughters’ mental needs and advance
ment. but they cannot shirk the moral re
sponsibility of training the heart. They
cannot pay this debt in dollars and cents.
God iolrusted the young plants to you, and
whether the bod expatais into a sweet, pure
fliiwer or a noxious weed you, parents, aie
individually responsible. While the teacher
does bis work of mind-training and a partial
heart-culture, tbe home-work should be go
ing on.
Then train yonr daughters to he true, no
ble, ptne women—the lovliest flow-er that
bloc ms about the parents’ or bo-ihand’s
heart. Train her mind, heart and hands to
®e» < 'i e not ty, in all its varied phases—to
realize that
“Life is real, life is earnest.”
Most women take opon themselves the
Bweetly Facied vows of wifehood. To win
tbe love of men is an easy matter when com
pared with tbe keeping of that love. To
keep the husband a lover should be one oI
the chief aims of tbe wife, and to do this
svcass/ully is no small matter A cultivated
mind alone will rot do it ; a knowledge ol
bousewilry alone will not do it; a pure and
gentle nature alone, or fascinating manners
will not do it But if she possess all ol
these qualifications, and is careless and un
tidy in her dress, she will, I fear, fail in hold
ing captive tbe husband’s heart. Then, in
View ol this fact, togitber with tbe degrad
ing <Sects ol untidiness, we should consider
dress—genteel BDd tidy dressing—an impor
tant part of the girls' education. Teach her
to dress neatly, io a becomiof style, and
■uiud to berpei»oi) and purse.
Should she bp so eitnated as to be re
quired to perform only the duties of n wife,
then she is blessed indeed in filling the holiest
position allotted to woman. But should the
fates decree otherwise, and the .strong and
tender arm of fathfr or hnsband, upon which
she leans wiih such beautiful trust, ha re
moved. let her be able, from the influence of
her education, to riae to majesty and gran
deur—to bi'U'h aside her tears, hide her
bruised and bleeding heart away benea'h a
sweet and hopeful smile, gird about her a
mantle of modestv and purity (woman’s best
shield) and g<* bravely out to meet li'e..
Then train her for any vocation which she
i«, by nature, fitted to follow, and spare nei
ther pains nor money to do this. Let this
be vour legacy to your dangbttrs.
Women must now do what they can, not
what they would. In going upon the street
she need not, n 9 many suppose, become un
womanly The tme woman will, by reason
of her delicate sensibilities, shtink from a
life ol publicity while she meets it with a
calm face and firm stop, seldom betrßy : ng
the wildly throbbing heart wbirb longs ao
for tbe retirement of the hearthstone.
Spring.
The retnrn of spring has many pleating
and grateful associations It brings us from
among the desolations which winter has
made, to the life and joyousness of a new
season Tbe fields that were bound in fet
ters of frost and ice throw off their chains
and pnt on their robes of green Silence
reigned among the naked trees or the bleak
winds whistled through their branches. Now
they are alive with birds singing tbeir matin
songs, and the buds are beginning to shoot
forth Where the school-boy wheeled in
aniic sport and left his traces on the frozen
pond, he new launches his tiny vessel to the
southern breeze or throws the fatal hook Hnd
line. The soft showers, tbe o|>ening buds,
the land breezes, and the warm sunshine re
mind us that the season is come greeltd by
tbe poet in the following strain :
“Spirit of love—of life and light,
Kacb year we hail thy birth ;
The day star from the grave of night,
That sets to rise in skies more bright,
To bless the sons ef earth.
With leaf, and bud. and blushing flower,
Still deck the barren sod ;
In thee we trace a higher power,
In thee we claim a brighter dower,
The day spring of our God I”
At this season the morning smiles with
the goodness of God The evening is lit np
with flis glory. His hand has touched the
plants and they revive, each opening bud
demonstrate* his benign and mysterious
power. The animal creation feel as though
they had escaped what Thompson calls “the
ruflinn blasts of Winter they no longer
seek the hovel and the fold, but lie down in
the copse *r the meadow where they have
grazed.
Whence, mortals, comes this agreeable
change? whose hand touches the secret
springs of this machinery? who breathes
upon tbe icy rivers and they dissolve? who
raises to life the sleeping vegetal ion and
clothes all nature in a new dross? Look up
to the bended heavens above you ; see that
exhaust less lountaiii ol light and beat as
luminous, as abundant in its supply as when
first it came from the plastic hand of God.
The eume moon, and the same myriad ol
stars, bestud the firmament, as those that
decked the evening uf the first hallowed
Sabbath. Watch the spring-shower and
hear the rolling thunder; see the return of
tbe same species of birds and plants and in
sects, lbat bade you adieu when the late
Autumn scowled and the fierce winds blew,
aud if you cannot recognize an all-powerful,
changehss Maker, and Ruler, “then sink
into thyself and be a fool." The unvarying
changes of the year, spring succeeding win
ter, and so on jn regular Ruecession, the
car h changed, as it were from death to life,
and each alternate season clothed with in
numerable beauties to regale the eye, and
yielding food lor man and beast, are all evi
dences, as well of the being as the unchang
ing goodness of the Almighty.
Long Courtships.
There is a great deal to be said against
long engagements, particularly by the lady
interested, as it is ahe who must hear all the
small annovances caused by gossiping (riends.
“Why doesn’t John marry Sarah ?” a«ks
Mrs. Grundy. “They’ve been engaged these
five years. Fvldently he’s in no hurry to
give up his freedom ” These and other
remarks come to Sarah’s ears, and she find*
her position a trying one. Indeed, many of
fbe difficulties and quarrels of lovers arc the
results ol a protracted betrothal. The state
of the engaged can never be thoroughly sat
isfactory to them. They are kept in an ex
acting mood which often breeds unfounded
jealousies. They enjoy the bliss of loving
and being loved, yet they are not quite sure
it is going to last. Somebody else may
come along and capture the heart they so
highly prize. Therefore, engaged people are
apt to exchange their vows frequently, both
for the pleasure of listening to what they
know already and to gain new assurances
that they are first in each other’s affections
and immovably fixed there This period of
joy and trial may he extended for a reasona
ble time—for months, and even a year or
two—but alter that there is the danger of a
break in the engagement which may be be
yond healing. It is best for all parties con
cerned that marriage should lollow an en
gagement as soon as possible. Bat if for
any good reason an early marriage is not
practicable, engaged people must be very
patient with eaeh other. If they are too
exacting, and so much pre-occupied with
their sentiments that they neglect their
ordinary duties, they are apt to get into a
morbid state, which will resu't In their
estrangement. A long engagement, to leach
a happy ending, must Bow an in a peaceful
coarse. Numerous quarrel* will Boally sep
arate tbe most tender ol lovers.— London

LIVER
Thi» important organ weighs but about three
pounds, aud all the blood in a lining person (about
three gallons) passes through it at least once every
half hour, to nave the bile and other impurities
strained or filtered from it. Bile is the natural
purgative of the bowels, and if the Liver becomes
torpid it is not separated from the blood, but car
ried through the veins to all p-*ns of the system,
and in trying to oecape tl.rough the pores of ti.e
skin, causes it to turn yellow or a dirry brown
color. The stomach becomes diseased, and Dys
pepsia, Indigestion, Constipation, Headache, Bili
ousness, Jaundice, Chills, Malarial Fevers, Biles,
Sick and Sour Stomach, ar.u general debility fid
low. Merrill's Hepattnk, the «re?.t vegrt4ble
discowery for torpidity, eauscs the Liver so throw
off from one to two ounces of bile each time the
blood passes through it, as long as there is an ex
cess ot bile; and the effect of even a fi w doses
upon yellow complexion or a brown dirty looking
skin, will astonish all who try it—th< y being the
first symptoms to disappear, ihe cure ef all bili
ous diseases and Liver complaint is made certain
by taking Hhpa rnrß in accordance with directions.
Headache is generally cured in twenty minutes,
and >o disease that arises from the Liver cuu exist

Sewing Machine
I* now generally conceded lo be the best in
use. and thousands have been sold to delight
ed purchasers all over the country. It has
a vertical feed, runs at a high rate of speed,
which, combined with its peculiar feed,
enubles the operator to turn the work at any
angle while the machine is in full motion,
without changing the tension or length of
stitch, consequently it can easily do in a
given time one-third more work than any
rotary or four motion feed. It excels in
hemming, felling, tucking, braiding, cording,
binding, quilting, ruffling, etc , and for all ol
which it has attachments especially adapted.
It uses a shnttle which holds a large amount
of thread, and which gives an even tension
in the most simple manner. For sale by
