ETC, Sing boy I for cauldron of boiling oil, Aucl a basin of stollen lead, Where this obdurate sinter may simile and boil And lropioally soak his head. Who says to hie brother in sweltering stew, With u gurgle of fervid glee, "Is it torrid enough today for you ? We not warm enough for mo. lxfay be sing and toast and simmer) and roast, And ober and kindle and burn, And search and singe and ever cringe And his body to cinders turn. Then the blistering heat of a furnace lira Shall accomplish hie just °remotion, And fagots and peat be his funeral pyre To hoist his incineration. And thus this felon we'll ardently kill, And listen with joy to his moans; And when ho has earbonizod)all that he 1011, b'e'll eneh take one of his bones. And waving the calcined remains of him, A Pareeeen dance we'll do; And shoat this jocular requiem, "Is it hot enough now for you." 13E CAREFUL WHAT YOU SAY. In speaking of a person's faults Pray don't forgot your own, And those that build it house of glass Should never throw a stone. If you have nothing else to do , But talk of others sins 'Tie better you should look at home, And from that point begin. You have no right to judge a man Until be's fairly tried, Should we not lilrehis comrany We know the world is wide. Ile may have faults, and who has not ? The old as well as young, Perhaps, for anything I kuow, Has fifty for his one. I'll toll von of a better plan, I flue. it works full well, To try your own delude to cure Before of other's tell. Although, sometimes I hope ne is No worse than some I know My own shortcomings bid mo let The faults of others go. Than lot us all, when we commence To slander friend or foe, Think of the harm one word may do To these we little know. Remember that a ourso sometimes Like ohiokens roosts at home, Don't speak of others' faults until You have no faults at home. Mns. Janus Cone, Brussels. A YOUNG MOTHER'S- DEATHBED. Comet thou leave the fair earth with its joy. fwl light, With its music, and scones so bright— To tenant tho dark lone grave? Comet thou enter the portal of the tomb? ()snot thou see Jesus amidst its gloom, And trust hie power to save ? Carat thou leave Shy sorrowing friends and go? Leave thine aged parents borne down with wee—= Leave thy weeping husband's side And without a murmer, a fear, n groan, Tread the dark valley of death alone In the name of the Crucified? Oh I youthful mother I last year a bride 1 Comfit thou cast all shy earthly hopes aside? And leave them withontregret— Will thy God support, in an hour like this? Thou trusted thy Saviour in days of bliss— "0 yes I and I trust him yet." "My spirit e'en now would mount to my God Through the merits of Jesus, although the road Through the valley of death may be, My Saviour the bands of the grave bath broke, • Ile extracted death's sting while Be suf. fered the stroke He bath said, I shall,:never die," "What is earth, with the prospect of Heav- en in view ? My Mende, and clear parents will follow me too, Very Boon to the mansions of joy. When my Husband by faith hasthia wilder- ness trod— When ho enters the valley, then up to his God— / may wait to escort him on high." • "But niy babe—my first-born) my only onol • Oh God I can I leave him exposed—alone To the withering breath of sin? Who will train his young steps in the nal'. • row way ? Who will teach his infant lips to pray, And instruct him the crown to win ?" "Let your prayora ascend with ming this hour— Dear friends, for a gift of Heavenly power To sever this tender tie ; To lay my swoot babe on my Saviour's breast, Then meekly, quietly sink to rest, To moot Hint in the sky." Then the prayer of faith aeoende;above, And the powor omes clown from the throne of Lova,o And the babe unto Christ is given. Tho triumphant spirit now wings its night To dwell with her Cod in transcondaut light And enjoy her reward in Heaven. Mao, D. BMW. Brussels. 11'ut. Id intern.

IMOORTANOE OF OLEaNLIN11ee.—•Keep• ing the pores of farts animals open is ae essential to their thrift as bathing is to our health. The akin. performs an oflioe more essential to life and health than even digestion ; and it is more important that tho horse be thoroughly groomed than that he be fed. Thorough grooming does nut mean only the removal of mud and manure from the hair with the comb ; it means that thorough brushing and rubbing which will clean the hide, re- moving all obatruolion from the pores. It ie wore necessary to groom the horse titan any other farm animal, because he is the last to groom him self. Cattle will groom themselves to a certain extent ; yet there call be no more profitable work than brushing and rubbing them, though It is so rarely done. The hog, reputed to be the dirties of farm animals, is really tho most cleanly, and if allowed to do to will keep his hide clean. This he scratches off and with it removes the empurities which have adhered to his hide and which the wet earth has loosened. Wallowing not only con- tributes to the comfort of swine, but is of the utmost importance to their health. AaAR Hoene IN ENGLAND.—Wilfred Blunt, of °rabbets Park, a large land- ed estate in the south of England, and who married the grand -daughter of the celebrated poet, Lord Byron, in travelling with his lady through Arabia several years ago, selected quite a number of the finest horses to be found there. These he placed on his estate to be bred pure by them- gotves, for t}is purpose of seeing whether any increase could be made in the sine of their progeny, their speed accelerated or other improve- ment, yet retaining all their line style, graceful movement, good tem- per and docility. Some of this prog- eny at three years old have attained a height of fifteen to fifteeu and a half hands, and it is expected when full grown they will reach another half hand—say sixty-two to sixty-four inches. When they Dome to this, it is his intention to train and race them against the thoroughbred Engltsb horses. Tho pure Arabian, being usually not over fourteen to fourteen and three-quarter hands, Se not able in a race to take the great stride of the Lc nglsh horse, standing loom fif- teen and one•half to sixteen and one- half hands, or an occasional one of seventeen hands; and in doing this they still gather, for their jumps are about as quick as the more diminu. tive horse. Arab stallions imported into Amer- ica for many years past have not ad- ded to the speed of our race horse, but what is much more commendable, crossed on the common mares of the country, their progeny has been found a great improvement in finish, grace and spirit, and consequently in value.
