Prob-.bl- y no truer analysis of wo- - mau'6 chaifccttr has ever been given than in the following, by Mrs. Ann S. Stejilitns: 'Woman, woman ! truly thou art a miracle, Place htr amoDg flowers foster her as a tender plant, and ehe ha thing of fancy, waywardness, and folly annoyed by a dew drop," fret- ted by the touch of a butterfly wing, zephyrs are too rough, the showers too heavy, and she is over- powered bylthe ptrfume of a rose bud. But let real calamity come rouse her affections enkindle the fires of her heart and mark her then, how her heart strengthens itself how strong is her purpose. Place her in the heat of battle give her a child, a bird, anything that she loves; or pities, to protect and see her as in a relaSive instance, raising her white arms as a shield, as -- her blood crimsons her upturned fortbead, pray"u:g for life to protect the dark places of earth awaken her energies to action; and her breath becomes a heayng her presence a blessing. She disputes, inch by inch, the stalk- ing pestilence, when man, the strong and brave, shrinks away ple and frio-htene- Misfortune daunts her not; she wears away a life of silent endurance, and goes forward with less timidity than to her bridal. In pros nftritv she ia a bud full of imprisoned nrlnrs. ivai;in? but for the winds oft adversity to scatter them abroad-p- ure gold, valuable, but untried iu the furnace. In short, woman is a miracle, a mystery,' the centre from which radiatts the great charm of ex- istence." The Women of Pelacd. Thre, girls do not jump from in- fancy to young ladyhood. They are not 6ent from the cradle directly to the parlor to dress, sit still, and look pretty. No th-- are treated as children should b"e. During child- hood, which extends through a period of several years, they are phinly and Iqosely dressed, and allowed to run, romp, and play in the open air. They take in sunshine as does the flower. They "are not loaded down, girded about, and oppressed every way with countless frills and supera- bundant fiounces,so as to be admir- ed for their much clothing. Nor are they rendered delicate ani dyspeptic by continual stuffing with candies and sweet cakes as are the majority of American children. Plain, simple food, free" various exercisQ, and abun- dance of suushino during iho whole period of childhood, are the secrets of beauty ia after life. . I ... V t Military Force of Europe.

At Nashville, one Saturday eve- ning, fatigued by his long journey, a wagoner, with bis son John, drove his team into a good range, and deter- mined to pass the Sabbath enjoying a season of worship with the good folks of the city. When the time for worship arrived, John was set tc watch the team, while the wagoner went in with the crowd. The preacher had hardly announced b.'s subject before the old man feH sound asleep. He set a- - gainst the partition in the centre of the body slip; just against him, sep- arated only by the rvery low parti- tion, sat a fleshy lady who seemed all absorbed in the sermon. She1 struggled hard with her feelings until, unable to control them longer, she burst out with a loud scream, an shouted at the top of her voice, rous ing the old man, who, but half awake, thrust his arni3 around her Waist and cried, very soothingly: "Wo, Nance 1 Wo, Nance!

Story of a Dog- - We have a good story for the commencement of the season Tewcg, win kteps a restaurant on Willi m Street, has a lars;e New- foundland dog, a finer specimen of bis kind than is ordinarily m-;- t with. Among his other wonderful marks of intelligence, we witnessed this a day or two ago. ' A gentleman en tered the restaurant holding My a cord a dog which served as a watch on board a ship. While in the place, the gentleman soppos d the dog was safe, and released his hold upon the string. The door was open- ed while the parties were in conver- sation, and the dog made his esc.ipe. Mr. Tetves said to his Newfound- land, "Go bring him back, sir." The dog obeyed the mandate, and within a block or two overtook the fugitive.! He first proceeded to give the o! jret of his charge a slight reprimand forj his delinquency, by means of a smart shako or two, and then took the rope in his mouth to lead the dog back to h"i3 master. Some holding back was manifested, the string was dropped and another shaking was administer- ed. Finally by alternate chastise- ments and pullings at the cord, the runaway dog was brought into the restaurant, and Newfoundland, with a sly wink to his master, seemed to say 'there he is." The scene was witnessed by many, and created no little excitement. Taken all in all, we think it is about as good a dog story as usually finds its way iuto the papers, and has the advantage of be- ing true, too. ir. Y.

Good night, and pleasant dreams be thine, How o ft, in accents soft and low, When round us quiet moonbeams shine, And night winds wander to and fro, We list from lips we love full well, These words that charm As like a spell ! Good night, and pleasant dreams be thine; 'Twas in the far off long ago, When home, and much loved friends were mine, And joys that now I nev er tnow, That first 1 felt the myst ic might, To cheer the heart, of this good night. Good night, and pi easant dreams be thine; Those words were, oh ! how sweetly said, By her, whese love must ever twine Around my sonl, when I am laid In the col d ground: Ab, then we'll meet And know love is divinely sweet ! Good night, and pleasant dreams be thine; The simple words can only thrill The heart round which affections twine, And where there trulj lingers still, Some memories of the hopes and joys. That filled our hearts w hen we were boys. Good night and pleasant dreams be thine ; Oh that throughout life's stormy 'way, Some friend whote thoughts and loves are mine, May always at the close of d.iy. Whisper with hope, this fond good night; My dreams must be fair and bright Good night, and pleasant dr earns be thine, And when through Death's drear clouds I see Life's latest 6tarlight dimly shina, Ayo. when my soul is bursting free From all Earth's cares, I fain would hear These words, from lips I love most dear. 1 I H I I 33E FAITHFUL.

And trusts thy promise sweet, And faithful thou should'st ever bo Then hasten her to meet. The world may never hold for thee, Again, so great a prize; First love, so guileless, from doubts free, And free from All disguise.

Time is spoken of under various technical and familiar terms, as ab- solute and relative time, Apparent nine, fciaenai lime, Astronomical time of day, Local time, &c. Ot these, mean or local time, which is determined by clocks, is used in some; almanacs; and apparent or sun time in others. Modern almanacs gen- erally use clock time, which is al-- i ways light, while sun time is subjec ted to continual variations. The for- mer indicates the time at any place, according to the meridian at that place, and thus the local cr clock time is made tp conform very neatly tc the apparent or sun time at all places in tho same latitude. So when it is noon jt New York, cr when the sun is on its meridian, the feun at that instant at Washington, is east of the meridian of that place; btcausetbe meridian of New York is east of Washington. Therefore the clock at Washington will be slower I reeding, we of of who to - and - had whipped j Y-a-- s. you cl, , to ... L ! !. .'

Thre, girls do not jump from in-

fancy to young ladyhood. They are

not 6ent from the cradle directly to

the parlor to dress, sit still, and look

pretty. No th-- are treated as

children should b"e. During child-

hood, which extends through a period

of several years, they are phinly and

Iqosely dressed, and allowed to run,

romp, and play in the open air.

They take in sunshine as does theflower. They "are not loaded down,

girded about, and oppressed every

way with countless frills and supera-

bundant fiounces,so as to be admir-

ed for their much clothing. Nor are

they rendered delicate ani dyspepticby continual stuffing with candies

and sweet cakes as are the majority

of American children. Plain, simple

food, free" various exercisQ, and abun-

dance of suushino during iho whole

period of childhood, are the secrets

FAYETTE VILLE,

A Sister in a tight Place.

At Nashville, one Saturday eve-

ning, fatigued by his long journey, awagoner, with bis son John, drove histeam into a good range, and deter-

mined to pass the Sabbath enjoyinga season of worship with the goodfolks of the city.

When the time for worship arrived,John was set tc watch the team,while the wagoner went in with thecrowd. The preacher had hardlyannounced b.'s subject before the oldman feH sound asleep. He set a- -

gainst the partition in the centre ofthe body slip; just against him, sep-

arated only by the rvery low parti-

tion, sat a fleshy lady who seemedall absorbed in the sermon. She1

struggled hard with her feelings until,unable to control them longer, sheburst out with a loud scream, anshouted at the top of her voice, rousing the old man, who, but half awake,thrust his arni3 around her Waist andcried, very soothingly:

"Wo, Nance 1 Wo, Nance! Wo!here,John,, calling his son 'cutthe belly-ban- d, and loose the breech-

ing, quick, or she'li tear everythingto pieces P

It was all the work of a moment;but'the sister forgot to shoot, thepreacher lost the thread of his dis-

course, and the meeting came prematurely to an end; while, deeply morti-

fied, the poor old man skulked away,determined not to go to meeting a-g-

UDtil he could, manage to keephis senses by remaining awake.

Story of a Dog- -

We have a good story for thecommencement of the seasonTewcg, win kteps a restaurant on

Willi m Street, has a lars;e New-

foundland dog, a finer specimen of

bis kind than is ordinarily m-;- t with.Among his other wonderful marksof intelligence, we witnessed this aday or two ago. ' A gentleman entered the restaurant holding My acord a dog which served as a watch

on board a ship. While in theplace, the gentleman soppos d thedog was safe, and released his hold

upon the string. The door was open-

ed while the parties were in conver-

sation, and the dog made his esc.ipe.Mr. Tetves said to his Newfound-

land, "Go bring him back, sir." Thedog obeyed the mandate, and withina block or two overtook the fugitive.!He first proceeded to give the o! jretof his charge a slight reprimand forj

his delinquency, by means of a smartshako or two, and then took the ropein his mouth to lead the dog back toh"i3 master. Some holding back was

manifested, the string was droppedand another shaking was administer-

ed. Finally by alternate chastise-

ments and pullings at the cord, therunaway dog was brought into therestaurant, and Newfoundland, witha sly wink to his master, seemed tosay 'there he is." The scene was

witnessed by many, and created nolittle excitement. Taken all in all,we think it is about as good a dogstory as usually finds its way iuto thepapers, and has the advantage of be-

ing true, too. ir. Y. Neics.o c

Pleasant Dreams be Thine.Good night, and pleasant dreams be thine,

How o ft, in accents soft and low,When round us quiet moonbeams shine,

And night winds wander to and fro,We list from lips we love full well,

These words that charm As like a spell !

Good night, and pleasant dreams be thine;'Twas in the far off long ago,

When home, and much loved friends weremine,

And joys that now I nev er tnow,That first 1 felt the myst ic might,

To cheer the heart, of this good night.

Good night, and pi easant dreams be thine;Those words were, oh ! how sweetly said,

By her, whese love must ever twineAround my sonl, when I am laid

In the col d ground: Ab, then we'll meetAnd know love is divinely sweet !

Good night, and pleasant dreams be thine;The simple words can only thrill

The heart round which affections twine,And where there trulj lingers still,

Some memories of the hopes and joys.That filled our hearts w hen we were boys.

Good night and pleasant dreams be thine ;

Oh that throughout life's stormy 'way,Some friend whote thoughts and loves are

mine,May always at the close of d.iy.

Whisper with hope, this fond good night;My dreams must be fair and bright

Good night, and pleasant dr earns be thine,And when through Death's drear clouds I see

Life's latest 6tarlight dimly shina,Ayo. when my soul is bursting free

From all Earth's cares, I fain would hearThese words, from lips I love most dear.

To misery and woe;

She's loved thee long, and ne'er forgotVows spate so long ago.

She trusted thee through seasons lonAnd never dreamed of chango,

And often sings thy favorite song;O! why thy heart estrange?

Forgotten! 'tis so hard to feelAll this word implies,

When memories fond across us steal.And hope within us dies.

O! leave her not! sheadings to thee.And trusts thy promise sweet,

And faithful thou should'st ever boThen hasten her to meet.

The world may never hold for thee,Again, so great a prize;

First love, so guileless, from doubts free,And free from All disguise.

Far happier sho will make thy home,Than wesith or beauty rare

Then ct ast thy yearning heart to roamFor oiher maids more fair.

Add not another to tho Iwt

Of maids who've loved in va'n;Look where thon wilt, there's none, I wist,

Will love so weil again.She loves thee still; oh! teach her not

That lesson world-renown- ed

But few escape 'tis woman's lot,While false hearts so abound.

TIME.Time is spoken of under various

technical and familiar terms, as ab-

solute and relative time, Apparentnine, fciaenai lime, Astronomicaltime of day, Local time, &c. Otthese, mean or local time, which isdetermined by clocks, is used in some;almanacs; and apparent or sun timein others. Modern almanacs gen-erally use clock time, which is al--

i ways light, while sun time is subjected to continual variations. The for-

mer indicates the time at any place,according to the meridian at thatplace, and thus the local cr clocktime is made tp conform very neatlytc the apparent or sun time at allplaces in tho same latitude.
