This only in another degree, can make kitchen work and bed room work and parlor work bearable to the housekeeper and their results agreeable to the house- hold. Without a hearty interest and a degree of zest, the greatest work must fail ; with it the humblest labor must succeed. The gratification pro- ceeding from an achievement is: not in proportion to its elevation in the scale of importance or its conspicuity in the eyes of the world, but in pro- portion to the doer’s consciousness of having done what was attempted. These thoughts are suggested to the housewife who feels that her lot has been cast in uninteresting places, who feels that her work is humble and unimportant, and consequently, being a person of spirit, goes at it dreading- lv. o6s through it mechanically, and accomplishes only poor and uncom- fortable results. To such we say, shake your self, rub the mist of habit from your eyes, and look at the world —a place where a good thing done well, is done nobly; a place where only things of good results Among mighty works of man the Pyamids [of Egypt are nothing in comparison to the immense stone fence built to keep out the Tartars from China, and both are, quite enough to bring low our exultation, and silence all boasting concerning the progress of modern science. Mr. Unthank, an American engineer en- gaged in surveying for a Chinese railway, lately took measurements of the great wall in many places, and gives the height as 18 feet, width on top 15 feet. Every few hundred yards there is a tower 25 feet high. The foundation is of solid granite. Mr. Unthank brought home * brick from the walls, supposed to have been made years before the time of Christ. The builders never attemepted to avoid mountains or chasms; for the distance of 1,300 miles the structure goes over hill and plain, every foot of it being solid masonry, upon solid granite. In some places the wall is built smooth up against the bank, or cannons, or precipices, where there is a sheer descent of 1,000 feet. Simtill streams are arched over, but in the larger streams the wall run to the water’s edge, and a tower is built on each side. On the top of the wall there are brenstworks, or deuses,| facing in and out, so the defence ing forces can pass from one tower to another without being exposed to any | enemy from either side. To caleu- late the time of building or sir this wall is beyond human skill. - far as.the magnitude of the work is upon a loving heart. >1 They who marry for traits of mind and heart will seldom fail of peren- nial springs of domestic enjoyment. Never reflect on a past action which was done with a good motive, and with the best judgment at the time.

There is a variety of opinion as to what is the most important employ- ment among mankind, but there is 2 class of philosophers, who are by no means wild, who declare there is nothing more important to the wel- fare of society than a well conducted household—a properly furnished ta- tie and a comfortable and invting fireside. We join them with the assert- tion that a well made pot-pie is ot more importance than an act of Con- gress; that delicate dessert pudding touches as consequential a nerve as a speech of Burke or Webster, and that a light, cheerful, purring family cii- cle is worth more than the greatest social success of the world. : 1.
