A CHRISTMAS  STORY.
happy as a sammer day, with bat two loares and a herring in the house, and the laat coals on tbe flre.
Poor Flip sat on a low stool Itefore the grate,
his elbows on his knees, and bis faoe burled
in his hands.   He only anawered bis wife in
monosylables, giving Mr. Dorner an opportn-
{ nity to hear the prattle of Flip's little flook.
j Rosy and fat were they, bidding defianoe to
I want, from Master Tommy—who was forbid
•¦ den to enter the oonntiug-toom, having an
; intense desire to sit on one of the high stools
; and cross hia legs in imitation of Mr. Dorner,
' bnt being ao round and plump had so many
falls, contagions, and orles therefrom aa  to
¦ render his exile from the countiog-roomne-
I cessary to Mr. Domer*8 peaoe of mind—to
j Bobbie, still rounder and plumper, not yet -
\ attempting to walk, but blaok-balling himself
f throagh the world by a perpetnal rotundity
I into the aahes, over the coal tub, nnder the
; chairs, tables, everwheze but where he should
; be.
Bat tbe great charm to Mr. Dorner existed j in tfae person of a yoang girl with most at- I tractive face. Tbere waa a fragility in ber j pensive featnrea, betokening a brief life. A. I kind of weary, aad forboding rested on the j lender mouth—a shadow that whispered of i' aome aad fate in the years to oome. Her ; eyes were so very bright and cloudlesa that 1 it was long ere Mr. Dorner could reconcile i himself to the belief that she was blind. ! Aud now, too, for tbe first time he saw tbat I the hearth waa literally covered with minia' ; ture people—little fire-spirits in crimson robes , and silver wings, and long looks of golden I hair falling about tbem, sending a radiance

**I couldn't possibly, Flip; could'nt, with justice to myself."
And heavy Mr. Dorner opened his huge book, and ran bis eyes over the credit column, ab¬ sorbed in his calculations.
Poor Flip buttoning hia coat over his thin frame, seemed nerving hiras'elf to some great outbreak of feHling, but, wiiheld by a deeper under-cnrrent, walked quietly to the green haisedoor, paused with a shudder, aud passed out.
A cold onrreut of air crept into the conn- ting room. Mr. Dorner looked around twice, fancying some one behind him. The large chronometer ticked with fearful disttnctneas, and stared witb a pecaliar meaning in its one eye. The gasglim'oered, and rose and fell, as thongh takingaholiday; tbe fire crackled, and hissed and snapped, sending showers of indig¬ nant glances thiongh the two fiery eyes of the coal stove.
Mr. Dorner was a man of nerve, or rather imagined he had none; but on this eventful Christmas-eve, coutrary to his usual custom, be hurried bis books away, closed the desk, and looking the door, walked np the street with a huge brass key apon his finger.
"I think I was right," said Mr. Dorner, speaking confidently to the key. "To be sure Flip haa been a faithful clerkfor many a year; bnt that doesn't make it clear to me that I ahould advance him any more salary. He has been sick all summer—^but that's hia mia¬ fortune not my fault. If one has au attached dog, who has cared for his property seven¬ teen years, that is no reason why one shonld feed him npon geese livers. No,no; I should not have given it another thonght."
Mr. Dorner had now reaohed his own door, hla was an elegant establishment. He par¬ took of afine sapper; smoked in his easy chair in his dressing gown and slippers, and then prepared for a dose. But Mr. Dorner felt op¬ pressed, thonght himself a littln dyspeptic, enumerated the articles he bad eaten for sup¬ per, was astonished that it counted up so en¬ ormously, sighed, thongbt he should not live long, and cast a backward glance overtbe ac¬ tions of his iife.
Suddenly he paased in his walk across the carpet, drew his ohair before the fire, and gaz¬ ed fixedly upon it. The little fire apirits were at work, and radiant pictures glowed with a glorious Ught and darkened with an ashen shade. A bright face was imaged therein— the coquettish eyes were glancing, haU-play- fnlly, half-tenderly, iuto his; rosy lips, with a touch of acorn and dimples of sweetness upon them, seemed ready to speak to him.
Howmany yeara aince that bright, graceful head had plaoed its head olose to his—since it had laid its wealth of cnrla upon hie bosomi And Mr. Dorner sighed audibly.* He thought of the time when he had won a yoang wife, beautifni and coquettish, with a cloak of vanity covering adeeply loving heart. ¦Frequently bad he remonstrated with her npon her coquetry, and often not witbout reason; for she had been so accustomed to ad¬ miration that it was daily food to her, and how could she give it all up at once for one so grave and so maoh older?
One night at a fan6y party, he imagined her more than coquettish—artfal and untrue to him—aud when he followed her into her cosy sitting-room, the storm of his pent-up wrath burst into a shower of bitter words upon her sunny head. Heretofore abe had mocked him, laughed at his counsel, and defended herself so spiritedly, yet so loving withal, that he had been vanquished; but ou this night he was more stern, and she less laugh¬ ing, even hnmble aud tender; aud when, in an unguarded moment, be accused her of trifling with his honor, sbe sapplicated him to believe ber, trtiat in ber. And when he disbelieved her, all her woman's spirit was aroosed, and drawiug the folds of her satin cloak about her, with the shepherdess* hat shading her pale face, she turned and left him —alone 1 Never since that moment had he seen her. Twice had he met some of her good, kind acts—two of her gracefal footprintt upou the path of time, by which she conld be traced to tbe shore of eternity.
Saddenly tbe picture changed, aud poor Flip's thin figure replaced tbat of the last love. He waa wending his way homeward through dark and narrow streeta. When he stepped upon the bridge over tbe dark and rushing river, he stopped, and, leaning over the parapet, aeemed to medidate upon the dis¬ tance it might be to the river below. So long did he remain thus, as though transfixedi and started ao suddenly with a dizzy move¬ ment over the railing, that Mr. Dorner Instinc

bnrning fate; and as the coals blackened they turned and returned tbem, ever leaving tbe bright aide viaible. Some, in a scarlet glow, hovered about the mother rather anx- ionsly and gently. But the purest and youngest clustered, with the little flock, about the blind girl. They nestled iu her hair, bang about the white neck, played with her slender fingers, drew faint shadows of her graceful figure npon tbe wall, and beamed and lingered and radiated over her until the entire light of the room seemed to emanate from her.
The little onea were pouring into Cberry'a liateuing ears their hopes of-Kriss Kringle's advent. Tommy wonld bave soldiers—"Ame ricans aud ludians, and the Americans ahall whip," said Tommy, boastfully, Mark must have a horse aud whip; one a "roly-boly like Bobbie;" another a tea-set aud doll; and when all had finished, there was a general cry of," Cherry, Cherry, what will Cherry wish.*' And Cherry placed her hand over ber eyea, and said earnestly, aa thougb it were more a prayer than a wiab, " Money."
Poor Flip looked up quickly, the ohildreu stood diaappointed; even the fire-apirits were shocked aghast at such a wish from so pnre a aonl.
"Tea, money," continued Cherry, "tben we could have a cheerful Christmas; and fatber would not be so qniet, nor mother sigh BO often; and you conld all have snch pretty thinga, and Bobbie a gnm-rattle."
Then Flip raised his head, and tried to tell his ohildren " that he was poor this year, and no Krisa Kringle will come to their chimney—" Here poor Flip broke down, and bis wife took np the thread of his discourse.
" Papa haa been aick, Tommy, a long while, you kuow, and he couldn't expect Mr. Dorner
to trust him to more, and so "
Here Flip's wife broke down; and, amtd Tommy's bitter ejaculations of Mr. Domer's "meanness and hardness," Flip's daughter Cherry spoke—spoke like herself, bright and cheery:
" Don't cry, dearest mother; don't despair, dearest father; thank God that we are all here, and well and happy. Tommy is a man, and can do withont his soldiera; Mark can drive the baker's horse, and snap hia whip.— We have much to be thankful for; f'ud those that are thankful for the little tbey have are never left in need."
And Flip's wife aaid Cheny was right, and Flip put one arm aronnd his wife, and the otber around his danghter, and said Cherry waa right, too; they had many blessings for wbich to be thankful. Aud Bobbie rolled In a circumference of glee; and the children re¬ joiced in the prospect of gingerbread horses which the baker's boy bad promiaed Cherry; and the fire snapped and glowed aa thoagh it had gone mad and thoaght the family mad¬ der; and so many fire-spirits filled the air round about Cherry that ahe seemed a pillar of light—glorionaly beaatified.
Mr.Domersaw that it was Christmas morn¬ ing; and Flip's house was in a great state of commotion. A grand fire burned on the hearth, and pies and puddings smoked in the ovtrn. A roast waa before the fire, and a neat table in the middle of the room; and Flip's wife, with ber face all aglow with pride, satis* faction, and the kitchen fire, bustled in and oat of the room, Flip was yoang looking, helping Tommy to arrange his soldiers on a rickety etand. Each child enjoyed in its wished-for plaything—even Bobbie, in his desire to eat hia rattle, forgot to roll.
Mr. Dorner heard a slight rap upou tbe door; all sprung up aa if in expectation of something; tbe door opened, and a lady stood in tbe room, and said "Jean;" for the coquettish face and sunuy curls Btood con¬ fessed. And Flip and his wife blessed her; and the children vociferously displayed their toys and thanked ber; and Cherry knelt down and kissed the hem of her robe, calling her tbeir good angel; and all the fire-spirits olns- tered npon her brow—crowning her with su¬ pernatural glory. And a voice said softly, sadly to Mr. Dorner, "Not for you are these praises and thanks—this intense gratitude— causing your heart to thrill with intenser joy; not for you the reward of well-doing—the happiness in a good aotion that bringa man nearer to the angles, but wrapped np in self and seinshness, remain thou alone."
And Mr. Dorner, aronsing himself, saw the last sparks fly upward from the hearthstone- leaving that hearth in ashes and desola¬ tion.
Tbe Christmas momlngreally oame to Flip's dwelling with sonshine joy. And the roast, and the table, and Flip's wife were there.— And tbe martial Tommy and the horse-jockey Mark realized their heart's wishes; and tbe Uttle cnehiB "roly .boly," and Bobble his rat¬ tle. And Flip's daughter, Cherry, was there —only ahe was not blind, bat as good, bright tively stretched ont his hand to drag him l and pretty a girl as any father wonld be prond from' hlsperilouB situation, in fear that he i of.   Mr. Dorner found himself the donor of
meditated snicide. Bnt at the same moment poor Flip said, with deep voiced feeling: "Ohi Thou, who sayest ante the troubled waters, 'Be still 1' calm Thon my sonl I" and strode resolntely away. Soon he reaohed the called home—a poor port in which to oast anchor; bnt none the less dear to him for all that.
Mr. Dorner did not endeavor to enter with Flip, but contended hiroBelf by peeping inat the window. There was a fire npon the hearth, composed of miserable enoiigh zoater- ia!S|' heaven knows, and amall enoagh in coinpHSB; hnt'it shone and latighed^ aad aaiiaed'oWilhsohriglita glow in'-idT@z:^ OOa],
all this; and as he atood in the centre of the room, Flip wrung hia band and said, " Ood blesB you, sir; but for you thia day would have been a aad one."
And Flip's wife ooald not thank him at all, for laughing and ory ing—all ina breath. And then, as the flre-apirits had piotnred, the door opened, and alady entered, throw;- ingbaok her veil; and Mr. Doxner started,' and said "Jean," and the lady walked calmly,! proudly to the window. Then iix. Dorneri took Cheiry 17- the band, and led her to the lady, saying; i

Good Manners in Boys.—^Yon can scarcely give a boy a worse name than to aay he is ill-bred, fiaaoy and impadent. Every bo^f avoids each boya as much aa posaible. Sen¬ sible people are annoyed by his impertinence, and give him a " wide berth." They regard them very muob aa they do a musquito—a pert and illmannered'intruder, wbose little¬ ness alone saves him from' the doom his attaok deaerves. Some boys have their man¬ ners so plainly marked npon their faces that yoQ oan see them. The bold stare, the im¬ pudent leer, and the brazen air of assurance, tells us their oharaoter very plainly, before they bave opened their mouths.
If full-bloomed impudence ia so unlovely a flower, il ia certainly wortb your while to avoid witb oare whatever wonld tend to its growth. The habit, like others, is formed slowly and by degrees. It naually commen¬ ces with rudeness and incivility toward par¬ enta. Tbe boy begins, perhapa, by replying with a blunt yes or no to the questions of his parents; or by contradiotiug them, or "answering baok," wben rebuked for a fault. He soon grows disrespectful toward his teach¬ er, and finally oom^s to treat his eldera generally as thongh they were no older, wiser or better tban himself. You see, therefore, the importauce of nipping this fault in the bnd.
The rule of good manners may be thns stated: To your elders and superiors be re¬ spectful. To your equals be civil. To all be courteous.

Bad Temper is oftener tbe result of unhappy oircamstanoes than of an unhappy organiza¬ tion ; it frequently, however, haa a physioal cause, and a pseviah ohild often needa dieting more tban correcting. Some children are more proue to show temper than others, and sometimes on account of qaalities which are valaable in themselves. For instance, a child of active temperament, sensitive feeling and eager purpose, is more likely to meet with constant jars and rubs, than a dull, pas¬ sive child; and if he is of au open natnre, bia inward irritation is immediately shown in bursts of passion. If you repress these eballitiona by scolding aud puuishment, you only increase tbe evil by changing passion into sulkiness.
A cheerful, good tempered tone of your own, a sympathy with his trouble, whenever the trouble has arisen from no ill-condnot on bis part, are the best antidotes ; but it would be better atill to prevent beforehand, as mnch as possible, all sources of annoyance.— Never fear spoiling ohildren by making them too happy. Happiness is the atmospbere in which all good affections grow—the whole¬ some warmth necessary to malce the beart blood circulate healthily and freely ; nnhap¬ piness,-the chilling pressure whicb produces here an iufiammation, there an excrescence and, worst of all, " the mind's green and yel¬ low sickness—ill temper."
Toughening Infants.
A writer on physiological subjects in Black¬ wood, give tbe foUowing advice toBmolbers on tboabove subjtict:
" Maternal instinct has in all ages and in all climates tanght t^omen to keep tbeir infants warm. Philosophers have at various times tried, by logic and rhetoric, to thwart this in¬ stinct. Philosophy haa been eloquent ou the virtuo of making infanta 'hardy,' and bas de¬ clared tbat cold baths and slight clothing muat be as 'strengthening' to cbe infant as to the adult. Listen to none of these philo¬ sophers, ye mothers ! Tbey are to be suapec¬ ted wben they are talkiug physiology, for ander circumstances they are the worst of guides, deceiving themselves and yon by tbal fatal facility which intellectnal power gives tbem of making ignorance look like knowl¬ edge, and of so speciously arraying absurdity that it looka like plain common sense. It is bad, very bad, to listen lo grandmothers, mothers-in-law and nurses, for their heads are mostly tner^ lumbar rooms of crotchets aud absurdities ; bni it is better sometimes to listen to them than to philosophers who inspire more respect, and caunot irreverently be treated as 'old women.' Maternal instinct must not be perverted by sucb nnpbisiologi- cal teaching aa tbat of'hardening' infants.— It is true that stroug infants oan endure this process, but it is certain tbat in all cases it is more or less iDJnrions; for the universal law is that the younger tbe animal the feebler its power of resisting cold, in spire of its posses¬ sing a higher temperature than the adult."

*    Order in Teaching.
Many teaobers seem to have no regnlar order of exercises in their sohools. Some of these appear to be ^tty sncoessfal in their teaching. How they can be so aucoesBfal and have no programme of exeroise may be a lit tie unacountable to tboae wbo bave been ao- onstomed to follow a regular course of recita¬ tions. It may, however, be explained by considering their love for their occupation, and their Interest in the ohitdren's advance¬ ment, being BO strong as ,to overcome ina great degree thn disadvantages arising from a want of order.
We will notice a few of the results arising from a want of a regular time for eaoh recita¬ tion. 1st. Classes tbat do not know wben they will recite, are apt to fall iuto a careless way of preparing their lessons. They aoon bave a great many other thinga to read or attend to. They get at aeveral of their les¬ sons changing from oue to another, aa they get tired of looking at each. Thns the lessons are bnt snperfioially looked over instead of being thoroughly learned. 2nd. The teacher leaving it to the impulse of the moment what clasa to call oat to recite, baa not the same opportunity to be prepared foran explanation ofthe lesson should it be reqnired. This pu¬ pils may excuse themselves from knowing the lesson by the plea that they did nolknow that the olass was going to reoite just tben ; or they may excuse themselves from reciting when first called on, as they did not know it qnite well enough yet, they had not been all over it. Tben tbe Teacher must call upon some other class, aud if they decline, tben upon another; and thus continne nntil he aucceeda iu finding a olass wilUug to recite, or make an attempt at it. 3rd. And last bnt not least, the teacher is apt to devote the most time to those classes that atudy such , branches as are the favorite studies of the teacher. The other branches are consequent¬ ly often much neglected. Grammer, Arith¬ metic or Geography as the oase might be which ever beat anited the taste of the teacher^ would receive bia speoial and particular at¬ tention, while the other would receive the special go-by. The scholars soon fall in with it and neglect thoae branches that are not favored by tbe teacher.
Although some may succeed pretty well in teaching without any system, yet it can hard¬ ly be denied that with a regular systematic courae of teaching or recitationa tbey will accomplish mnch more. The pupils will then know when their respective classes are to re¬ cite If there sbould be no clock hanging in the room, they will know the order and that wben snoh a olass is done, tben oomes their turn.
The teaoher abonld however be careful to go strictly by his watch. It is better to have a programme drawn up on paper, divi>ling off the time in proportion to the importance of each study tben call up each class by the ringing of a small clasa bell, and diamissing tbem exactly at the momeut allotted for that recitntion has expired; using the same bell. ' The pupils will very soon become acquain¬ ted wilh the order, and obey tho ringing of the bell as orderly and quietly as clock-work. The pupils knowing wben they will have to recite will feel the imperativeness of being prepared at the proper time. There will be better lessons and fewer excuses. The teacher will thns give just attention to each respec¬ tive brancb and his partialities have less control of hia time and attention, giving each its propor share.
Some may suppose that because their school is small it is not necessary, but we would say that if the school consisted of but one pupil, system would prove itself effectu¬ al. Our greatest men who accomplish the most, are tbose wbo have a time for each and every thing. And in no place is this more neoessary and effectual tban in tbe school room.

PICTTJKES.
A room witli pictures in it, and a room witbont pictnres, differ hy nearly as mach as a room with windows and a room withont windows. Nothing we think, is more melan¬ choly, partlcalarly to a person who has to pass mnch time in his room, than blank wails with nothiDg on tbem; for piotarea are loop¬ holes of escape to the seal, leading it to other soenes and otber spheres. It is snch an expressible relief to a person engaged in writing, or even reading, on looking np, not to hare his line of vision chopped offhy an odions white wall, bnt to find his sonl escap¬ ing, as it were, throngh the frame of an ex¬ quisite piotare, to other beaatiful and perhaps heavenly scenes where the fancy for a mo¬ ment may revel, refreshed and delighted. Thus pictures are consolers of loneliness; they are a sweet fiattery to the sonl; tbey are a relief to the jaded mind; tbey are win¬ dows to tbe imprisoned thonght; they are histories and sermons—whioh we can read withoat the trouble of tnrning over the leaves.
TxK True Gentleman.—He is courteous and affable to his neighbors. As the sword of the hest-tempered metal is most flexible, so the traly generons are most pliant and coarteooB in their behavior to their inferiors.
It is with books as with women, where a oertain plainness of manner and dressing is more engaging than that glare of paint and airs and apparel, whioh ma7 dazzle the eye, bat reaches not the affeotions.
THE SMACK IN SCHOOL.
The following incident, in a District School, described by WiUiam Pitt Palmer of New York, Fresident of the Manhattan Inaurance Company, in his address before " The Liter¬ ary Society," in Stockbridge, Mass., his na¬ tive bome, will take many whose heads are now streaked with silvery hairs, a journey back to boyhood and early life:
A District School not far away. Mid Berkshire hills one Winter's day Was hamming with Us wonted noiae Of thr6e.acore mingled glrla and boys- Some few npon thetr tasks intent, Bnt more on fartlva mischief bent; The while tbe Uaster's downward look Was fastened on a copy book.

THE MISTAKE.
We were at the State Fair at Centralia, in horticaltnral hall examining and taking notes of frait, when the crying of a boy seven or eight years old, attracted oar attention. He was standing alone between the fruit stands, rabbing hia eyes and sobbing as if hia heart would break.
" What is the matter, my boy f" asked Mr. Ellsworth.
No answer was received bat sobs, when he was aaked if he wonld have one of the fine apples before him.
" No, he doea not want an apple," aaid a gentleman standing by, evidently his father.
" Stop yonr crying, right off I"
" What ails him ?"
" Oh, he wants to go among the maohinery. ^e have been.down there all the moming, and he cries when we come away."
*'I woall take him baok, then," aaid Ella- worth.
" We want to see something else besides machinery, and are not going to atay there all day," and taking tbe child's hand, they moved off toward the cattle.
"There, did yoa see that?" aaked Ells¬ worth, " that boy will be satisfied with nothing else bat machinery. Were he my child I would go with him and stay until he was satisfied. That man is uot fit to be a parent|; he does not understand the natare of that boy.
We assented, and following the ooarse taken by them, sometftaie afttir, both from sympathy for the obitd, and to study more olosely the oharaoter of the parent. We found them in the north-west part of the Fair gronnds, examining the atock—the boy still sobbing. The father drawing him along in no very oarefal maaner. We predict that boy will leave hia father before he is of age, and if the father lives he will one day wish he had known the hoy better.—Emery's Journal..
