RECORDS OF I'HE BErOLUTIOS.
THE WIDOW'S DAUGHTER.
Frotn autbentic sources, we learn that the
I lioping,«»en againat the prompting" of her I jndgment, to indnos him to make the only_ reparation posaible, that of marrying her be¬ trayed ohild.   How she snooaedea we ha*e already seen.
An hour or so after the aoene jast recorded^ Mrs. Serrell sallied froinherlittledomioil, and took her way farther np town. She moved qniokly add determinedly, and evidently had some important pnrpose in view.
Finally, she paosed before a dwelling hoose, not mnch, If any, larger than her own.— Withont knocking she entered. " Wataon 1" aaid she, abraptly addressing ] a fine looking, mascnlar built youth, of not over twenty yeara, who was sitting by a table, reading ; " Watson, do yon want to do me a service to-night ("
" Of conrse, Annt Jane I" waa the reply. We will here atate that the young man's name was Wat90nBradley,andthathia mother was Mrs. Serrell's only sister.

"Anything, Wataon!" waa the really wild reply.   "Ruinand dishonor t"
" Rain and dishonor!" repeated the young mi „   man, throwing down bis book, and starting up from tha chair aa he spoke ; " those are ; dreadful terms, Aunt!"    After tLe paose of
tiou of one Arthur Douald^iuu, a captam lu the Highlanders. DonaMsou was a young mau of au *»xcKediui5ly prHp»s5e3siui? appear¬ ance and fascinating uiauuers. His family was one of wealth and con^jr'queuce; aud, Uke all Englishmen—for, though of Scottish de¬ scent, England was bis birthplaoe—he was exceedingly proud ofit and of himself; which, in a measure, was correct enougb—the ex¬ treme of the case being all that aenaible peo¬ ple would coudeiiiu. It is needles,-) ta assert that most of the aristocratic Britiah officers want to the extreme; aud Donaldson, with the otheas looked down contemptuously upon all the poorer colonists. StiU, he was a refiueil, accorap\iaUei, aud tolerably well eiiucated man; aud in his capacity of soldier, brave as most meu, with nothiug, however, in that respect remarkable.
The beauty of AUce Serrell soon attracted his wautou attentiou, and he courted her so¬ ciety; not, however, as may well be inferred, from any honorable motives.
Thus matters progressed for some time, much to the discomfort of the widow, who felt greatly pained at Donaldson's visits, and yet feared to offend hira by forbiflding Uim the house. She was too ol<i and experieuced not to know that little good was meaut, and that little good would be likely to come of the intimacy.
With AUce, however, it was different.— Fascinated by the Captain's prepossessing appearance aud apparent goodness, she read¬ ily yielded to him ber heart's first affection. His blaodishiueuts blinded her to the differ¬ ence of their social positions; and, in fact, to everything but the love sha bad so grown to feel for the artful aud anpriaofpled man; for, thongh he and those like him looked upon the poor as devoid of feeling, and treated snch matters as affairs of no moment, honest people, whether rich or poor, high or lowly, esteemed them in a different light altogether. Let us now pass over several months, and then let us draw your attention to a sceue which was transpiring iu the widow Serrell's humble home.
The time was I'vening, aud the dramatis persona the widow, Alice, and Captain Don¬ aldson.
Alice was lying prone upon the floor, pale and insensible; tbe widow Serrell was stand¬ ing over her agonizingly wringing her hands, and Captain Donaldson was posted a few paces distant betweeu the window, Alice, and tbe door. A scornful look rested on his re¬ ally flue face, and taken witb tbe rest of the picture, it told the whola of the miserable tale—explained everything at a siugle glance. "Then you will not marry my daughter, and make her an honest woman?" eaid Mrs. Serrell, looking up from Alice to the Captain, "I have said before that I cannot and I again repeat it!" was Donaldson's reply.
" I Uke Alice very well, but, when I look for a wife, it mnst he from among those who are my ennals."
"Proud Englishman!" cried the widow en¬ raged by his words, "my daughter fallen as she is, is as far above you as the sky above the earth. Innocently, lovingly and confi diugly she h.as committed a great wroui.-, but you, with nothing to excuse you led hor un¬ wary feet into the dark pit It is houor that raises one being above another, and your heart does not beat with such a feeling. You may look down upon your poor victim —the innocent beiug yon have fiendishly ru¬ ined—but, as surely as the Lord God liveth, that surely is her soul whiter than yours— that surely have you yet to answer for the wrong you bave doue her!" j
"Why, madam, I offer to you all that is in ! my power!" said Donaldson, augrily. "I will give her a sum sufficient to to keep her from want, and what more can you ask?"
"What more?" exclaimed the widow with deep emphasis.
"Exactly, madam! aud, I assure you, not mauy would bave noticed the affair eveu that much."
"Wbat more, mao!" replied the widow sternly. Do you come bere, iuto the bosom ofa happy family, wautonly scattering ruiu aud desolation, and then, wheu your work is done, dare olfer money to those whom yoa bave blasted, and ask what more can be ex¬ pected of you? What more? Keep your mouey, sir, aud save my child by giving her the name of wife, even if it be only the namo."
"It is out of the question, madam! I cannot dn it!"
"You will not, you mean! was the widow's indignant exclamation.
"Well, I will not! aud if you dont like my offer, say so, aud I'll take my leave, for I'm about tired of tbis scene,"
"First, hear me!" aaid the widow; aud, as she spoke, she fell down npon both knees and raised ber hands and eyes npwards; "bear the widow's curse, wicked man, upon the destroyer of her child."
"Curse away, if youhave a miud to! but you are mistaken if you thiuk I shall atay to liaten!" cried the Captain, as he dashed ont of the honse.
The widow watched his retreating form until it disappeared from her sight; and then with a low "Godhelp yoa, maul" she tnrned her attention to her danghter, who now be¬ gan to display eome syptoma of reviving.
Here lot us make a brief pause while we go baok a little for esplanatioBs.
For some time previons to the night in question Mrs. SerreU had noticed quite a change in her daughter. Aticegrew low-spir ited, nervous and repining ; lost her ruddy complexion ; was,aU at ouce, given to sighing; at night she would moan in her sleep; and, thongh she evideutly straggled to concealher feelings, the chauge could not escape the watchful eyes of her mother. On two or three occasions, also, the widow surprised AUce in tears; and, at length, she took the young girl to her aide and kindly but reso¬ lutely questioned her. Thestoryponredinto the mother'a ear waa one of love and loving confidence, aud—ruin.
Almost frenzied with ter grief, the widow Bent at onoe for Captain Donaldson, vainly
whom
" Alice, Wataon," was the broken reply. !     The youth knitted his eyebrows, and drew ', his breath with a whistling sound. j     " Who caused it ?" be inquired, at length. " Captain Donaldson, of the Highlanders." " A British oppressor!" said Bradley, bit- : terly ; aud, as he spoke, he clenched his hands ; and gritted his teeth.   " God I that the hated tyrants were all driveu out of the country J ] Bnt, toll me all ahoat it, aunt!"
" I will, Watson, for I've a taak to accom- I pHsh, aud I want yoa to assist me." I For a half hour, probably, the widow and nephew conversed together, and then botb j started out of the house. Atthe door they parted company, one going one direction, and the other auother.
Prior to going out Bradley armed himself with a pair of pistols, wbich he carefnlly ex- j amined before patting them away iu his pook- lets.
j    After a few low spoken words outside, they i parted, as we have already stated.
For a few moments let us follow the widow. Onward she trotted for several squares, halting, at length, at the door of another small dwelling. Again, withoat knocking, sbe en¬ tered. Several females were iu the apartment engaged in an animated conversation. At the wiiftw's entrance the talking was sus¬ pended.
"Plotting treason, my friends, that yoa stop off so suddenly ?" said Mra. Serrell.
" Well, sister Jane," responded one," some people would think so, uo doubt." '* Well, I'm not a spy, so talk away!" " We know that, Jane Serrell, and only stopped to mafee sure wbp it was,'*aaid an¬ other.
" Bnt, how pale yon look, and, how flurried yon seem, sister Jane!" said the first speaker, anxiously.   " Is anything the matter ?"
"Well, yes," responded the widow, aa calmly as possible. " But, I haven't time to tell it now. I want you to put on your bon¬ net and come along with me. Watson said I should flnd you here, so I locked np the house and came right along after you, that we mightn't lose too much time."
" I'll be ready in a moment, sister Jane I" was the response, as the speaker bustled around and began to array herself. Iu a very few minutes she was all prepared; and tben, bidding the other women good nigbt, she and the widow sallied forth. Immedi¬ ately after they had gotten fully started, a deep aud earest conversation was hegun, and it is fair to presume that the rain of Alioe SerreU was the object of their discourse.
After proceeding a few squares farther yet, they halted at the door of a house of consid¬ erable more pretension than either of their own. Their kuock brought a domestic to the door; and when a few words had passed, they were shown inside. After the lapse of a little time tbey agaiu issued forth, accompanied by a well, but plainly, dressed, fine looking old man.
The path they now begau to trace was in the direction of Mrs. Serrell's abode; and, here we will now leave them, tuming our at¬ tention to the doings of Watson Bradley.
After parting with his aunt, Bradley direct¬ ed his steps tow. rd the old barracks near the widow's home. Arrived there, he made in¬ qniry for Captain Donaldson, bnt was informed that the latter named personage was, most probably, at his boarding house, which was Mrs. Graydon's, corner of Second street and Norris alley.
According to Graydon's memoirs, Mrs. G's. estabUshment was of quite a fashionable character.
Thither Bradley next directed his stepa.—
I A grinning darkey responded to his knock,,
;     '' What'll massa hab ?" inquired the latter."
"Iwisli to see Captain Donaldson," was
the reply.
" Berry well, sar. De Captiu's in his room, an' if de gemblemau will walk into de paw- law, I'll faum de Captin dat he's wanted down stars."
"I'd prefer going to his room, if yon'U show me np," said Bradly.
" Couldn't tink ob doin' dat, sar, noways, De Captin am one oh de most Hicklar men I ebber saw in all my hom days, an* he'd jest gib me funder if I done any sich ting as dat. Ye see, sar, dese red coata am de debbU on sich pints as dat, doe, 'tween you an' me, ear —now, I guess yon won't saylioffin to nobody ef I spoke vay mind?"
"You may rest easy on that poiut," rejoined Bradley, forced to smile, notwithstanding the serious nature of his busiuess,
"WeU, den, now, 'tween you an* me,sar," went on the negro, lowering his voio'> to a whisper, "I done tink dar a bit better den anybody else; an' by golly! it am my private 'pinion dey ain't jest half as good."
"Well, show me into tbe parlor and hring the Captain down," said Bradley. "Walk dis way, sar." After conducting yonng Bradley into the parlor, the negro directed his stepa up stairs. A few memenla subsequent the parlor door was thrown open, and the black visaged con¬ ductor again made his appearance,
"Captin Arfnr Donelson!" he shouted at the top of his voice.
At the aame time Arthur Donaldson, bril¬ liant in his Highland plaids aud golden trap¬ ping, walked into the room.
A glance appeared to satisfy him in regard to the poaition of his viaitor^for Bradley's clothes though clean aud neat, were of a coarse quality—and he drew himaelf up &is- daiufully.
Meantime the negro withdrew and olosed the door.
" WeU, sir, what business have yon with me?'* inquired Donaldson, with nataral over¬ bear in guess.
" A matter of importance to some, Captain Donaldson,*' was tbereaponae. "You have deeply wronged an Innocent and confiding young girl, and it is no more than right that yon ahoald make her aome reparation."
" Ohl yon oome then on behalf of the Ser¬ reU girl?*'
"I come, sir, in behalf of Jlfis« SerrelU'* responded Bradley, Ms eyes flashing at the instilting manner of the Briton.
Donaldson lifted bis eyebrows, and stared at hia visitor; then, after a moment, he said: " WeU, all I oan say la, that I have already offered to make ber all tho reparation that is In my power. Marry her,! oannotl bo, like a gentleman, as I hope I am, I offered to pre¬ eent ber with a snm of money that to one in her biroamatanoeB shonld be a little for¬ tane."
" Good Heavens, give me patienoe I" was Bradley's mental exolamation,
"Her mother indignantly and angrily rd- faaed my offer," continued Donaldson, " and would hear of nothing leas than that t ahould many her danghter. Marry her, indeed!" he added, aapercilionaly ; "no, not for, though in form, faoe and manners the girl is rather above her station, yet abe'd scarcely be the wife for Arthur Donaldson to take home to England."
The heart of Watson Bradley swelled in¬ dignantly aa the insulting words of the hangbty Englishman feU npon hia ears. For such a crime aa Donaldson had been gnUty of he wonld have hated and despised his own brother, so trne and nprlght were his own feelings, and how much more he hated and despised the despicable Briton for it, we feel that our power of description is almost inade¬ quate to express. Chokingdown bia feelings, however—for he had an object to acoompUsh —he aaid.
" I have no doubt we shall be able to agree and settle thinga properly."
" I thonght the old woman woald come to, notwithstanding all her flne heroics; bat, egadt I hardly expected so sadden a change," said Donaldson, with tbe air of a man who was uttering something remarkably olever. "The money, I suppose, waa too powerfal to resist," he added.
" I suppose so," rejoined Bradley, turning his face away to bide the fiery glow tbat motinted to his brow. The next moment he added, aud with all the air of a man makiug a oommon business arrangement. "Will yon accompany me up to.wn this evening, aud have the disagreeable affair finally settled?"
"Well, I guess ao, Mr. by the by, what
did you say your name was?"
" I believe I forget to mention it. Excuse me.   Watson Bradley, at your service."
"WeU, Mr. Bradley, I have an engagement thia evening, bnt, as I wish to get this affair off my bands, and always endeavor to act honorably, I will pat it off to auother time and go with yon."
"Thank yon," aaid Bradley, as affably as posaible, and, at tha same time, be inwardly congratulated himself npon the easy manner in which the heartless, aelf-conceited English¬ man fell into the toils.
"Excnse me," added Donaldson, " whUe I get my bonnet."
As the Captain disappeared from the room, Bradley fell into a mental soliloquy.
" Is it not strange," be thonght, "that men oan be fonnd who entertain such widely sep¬ arated, antagonistic feelings? Now, that high¬ born villiau rains an artless, virtuous woman, and then offers money to heal tbe crimson wonnd be has made ; and tbat he calls acting honorably. Well, in the light he views it, I sappose it is; for many would but have laughed at tbe hnmble colonist, and not even have offered to part witb their mouey. Yes, he ia an honorable gentleman—very honora¬ ble; but. Heaven grant there are not many anch honorable gentlemen in the world,— Here ba comes again," added the yonng colo¬ nist, as a slight noise ontside warmed bim of the approach of some one.
"Now, sir, I am already!" said Captain Donaldson, as be entered the apartment.
"Let ns set forward, then," responded Bradley, as he arose to bis feet.
A moment afterward tbey left the house and bent their steps np town.
In dne time they arrived at the bome of the Serrells. Bradley then knocked, and the door waa instantly opened.
Upon entering tbe room ihey fonnd tbere tbe widow Serrell, ber siater, Alice and the old gentleman whom we have already aeen in company with the two first mentioned.
At first Donaldson looked somewhat con¬ fused, but immediately afterward he recover¬ ed hia superciliona manner.
Tbe rest neither moved nor spoke, but sat like marble statues.
Even Alice, thongh for an instant ber white face glowed with the deepest crimson, sat immoveable.
" Watson," aaid tbe widow, at length, " Alice leaves her wronga entirely in your hands. Yoa know what we want, and what she is entitled to."
"X do, aunt; aud, if I know the strength of my own beart, ahe shall have aU that is rigbt."
Bradley spoke flrmly and deliberately ; and, at the aame time, he tarned to the front door and locked it. The windows were already olosed and secured.
" What is tbe meaning ofall this?" deman¬ ded tbe Captain, suspiciously.
•* It means. Captain Donaldson, that yon are here in our power, and that we intend to make you do what we see best, and that is what is rigbt and proper, and what an honor¬ able man would have done without the least compulsion. It is needless to say to you, or any one present, that a great wrong has been committed ; almost, if not qnite the greatest that man can be guilty of. You have proven yourself a   vllUan, Arthur Donaldson; and
" In other worda, T'Bald BradlBj," yon look apon her as not good enough for yoa." "Weltff yoD like the language' better,
yes."
" She was good enotigh for yoa to deceive and rain,"
" Ob, wbat yon call deceiving and raining
her, and marrying her, are vastly different"
"Yon are a bad man. Captain Donaldson,"
said the minister unable longer to control
himaelf,
" Bad I There are none worse 1 He*s a vil¬ lain I a villain! oried the widow indignantly, "WeU, he's pretty much like the rest of them I" said her sister. "They all of them have mighty big notions, and think they oan treat na poor oolonists-jnet aa they please."
"Stop, my friends 1" said Bradley peremp¬ torily, " Leave me alone, tf yon please. Now, Captain Donaldson," he added, taming a firm front to the person named, " onoe for all will yoa make Alioe SerreU yonr lawful wife?" "No, I will not I" waa tha rapid reply; I'nor will I stay here tobe badgered by you?" Aa be spoke the Captain atarted toward the door.
" The door ia locked. Captain Donaldaon, and the key is In iny pocket,'' said Bradleyi coolly. " You seem to forget tbat *'
The Captain stopped sbort, betraying some marks of confusion, mingled with qnlte a sbow of choler. He bad indeed, forgotten that he was aotnally a prisoner.
"Resistance woald be uselesa," added Bradley,firmly, "foryou are unarmed, and cannot possibly escape from tbia room ; while on the contrary, I am fatty prepared for any emergenby, no matter how deaperate. Yon oan see I speak the truth."
While ha was speaking he drew forth hia pistols, laid one down upon the table, and oocked tbe other:
"Besides," he added, "it would take me bat a few moments to raise a bnndred indig¬ nant men, every oue of whom would stand by me to the death. Yon know enough of the prevailing feeling to feel qnite certain tbat I speak the trntb. Now, listen to met sir. Witbont marrying Alice Serrell, so help me Heaven 1 yon ahall never oross yonder door-sill alive. Death is tbe only alternative I give yon, and, as there is a just God wbo hears my solemn asseveration, I will fnlflU my threat to tbe very letter. I give yoa ten minutes to deoide, and warn yon that roy resolution is aa immovable as a rock."
Bradley fixed his flashing, penetrating eyes npou tbe Englishman, and, at tbe same time, placed tbe muzzle of his pistol within a foot of the latter's temple.
An oppressive silence ensued; for, all hut one there preaent knew tbat tbe yonng mau would oertainly keep hia word. And, eveu the Captain could not bnt feel tbat Bradley was not to be tiifled witb. Tbere was uo mistaking hia nnflinohlng determination.
During tbe next five minutes Donaldson weighed every chance, and he was at lengtb compelled to admit that he was every way cut off from escape—that he had nothing to do bnt to submit with tbe best grace pos sible.
"Well," said he, finally, "I'll marry the girl; but by Heaven ! I'll never acknowledge ber as my wife."
"We oare notbing for tbat?" responded Bradley ; " and, doubtless, she will be a hap¬ pier woman witbout you than sbe wonld be with you. Our object is something different. We only wish to eave your victim's name, and, that, accomplished, care for notbiug more."
" Perhaps not I" returned the Captain, sneer¬ ingly. " And, now, if you pleaae," he added, " I'd thank yon to take tbat pistol from my head."
"When tbe ceremony is over, Captain Donaldson, not before 1" was the firm reply.
Tbe Englishman ground hia teath, and, ev¬ idently, was about to make an augry retort, bnt, the next moment, changed his mind.— Probably he saw bow little good it was likely to do.
"Come friends, get ready!" saM young Bradley.
" We have no need of preparatioas, and, therefore, bave no occasion to delay," said the widow. Taking her danghter by the hand, sbe added, '* Come, Alice "
Quietly the parties arranged themaelves in front of the minister, wbo had now arisen to bis feet. Alice was weak, trembling and agi tated, and leaned upon ber mother's arm for support. The widow, too, was nervous, but it was witb joy at the success of ber plana.— Women who have children will he fully able to appreciate her feelings.
The momentous ceremony began, aud, in leas thau ten minutes, Alice Serrell, in the sight of God and man, was the wife of Arthur Donaldson, the latter being compelled to utter the responses which nnlted him to tbe wronged being by his side.
"Thank God, my child!" exclaimed tbe widow, aa ber daughter, at the end of tbe ceremony, sank weepingly npon ber bosom. " Now, sir, you can go 1" aaid young Brad¬ ley to tbe Captain. " But, hereafter, respect the name of yoar wife, or it may be much the worse for you. I have said it, and I mean it, sir."
The door waa then unlocked, and with a curse upon all preaent, the Captain fairly dashed from tbe room.
It is only necessary for na to state in con¬ clusion tbat AUce and tbe Captain  never
MU gmil^ €mk.
Two ways of correcting a Fault.
"Well, Sarah, I declare I yon are the worst girl tbat I know of in tbe wbole country I" " Why, mother! what bave I done I" "See tbere! how yon have spilled water in my pantry I Get out of my sight; I can¬ not bear to look npon you—you careleas girll" ." Well, mother 1 I couldn't help it." Mrs. A., tbe mother, is a very wortby wo¬ man, but very ignorant of tbe art of family government, Sarah, her daughter. Is a heed¬ less girl of about ten years old. She is very much accustomed to remove things ont of proper places, and seldom stops to put them in again. On the occasion referred to above, ahe had been sent to put water into the tea¬ kettle, and had very carelessly spilled a con¬ siderable portion on tbe pantry floor. After the above conversation, which ou the part of the mother, sounded almost like aacceasive olaps of thunder on the ears of her daughter^ Sarah eacaprd, in a pouting manner, into an adjoining room, and her mother wiped np the slop in the pantry.
WeU, thought I, my dear Mrs. A., if tbat is the way you treat yonr daughter, you will probably flnd it necesaary to wipe after her a great many times more, if you both live. Sncb family government as here set forth, seems to me to be Uable to several aerioua objections.
The reproof waa too boisterous. Children oan never be frightened into a kuowledge of error, or Into conviction of crime. It ia their judgment, and their taste for neatness aud order, which need training, aud uot their feara. It was too unreasonable. Tbecbild waa, indeed careless; but ahe had done nothing to merit the title of the "worst girl in the country." Children are sensible of injustice, and very soon flud it difficult to respeot tbose who unjustly treat them.
It was too passionate. Th • mother seemed to be boiling over with displeasure aud dis¬ gust; and, under this excitement, she des¬ pised her darUng cbild; the very same that in a sbort time afterward, wben the storm bad blown by, she was ready to embrace in her arms as almost the verv image of per¬ fection.
It was inefficient. Sarab retired, ander the idea that ber mother was excited for a very little tbing, which she conld not help. Thus she blamed her mother and acquitted herself. Mrs. B. is another mother in the same neighborhood. Mrs. A., wonders why Mrs. B., has aucb very good clildren. Says Mrs. A., " I talk a great deal more to my chUdren tban Mra. B,, does. I frequently scold them most severely, and I somt-times whip them, until I think tbey will never disobey me again! And yet, bow noisy, careleas and disobedient my childreu are! Mrs. B., says but little to her children, and yet her family moves like clock work. Order, neatness and barmony abouud, aud I never heard of ber whipping them at all."
'Tis even so ! And I shonld like to tell Mrs. A., t' e great cause of her failure. Sbe haa not yet learned to govern herself, .ind it is not, therefore, surprising that her family is poorly governed.
Mrs. B., bas a daughter, Catharine, about the same age with the daughter of Mrs. A.— Not long siuce Catharine committed, iu a hnrry, the same act of carelessness as above related, and Mrs. B'a treatment of it reveals ber secret of family government.
" Catharine, my daughter, can you tell me how this water came on the floor?"
"I sappose, mother, I mnat have spilled it a few moments ago, when I fllled tbe tea¬ kettle."
" Why did you not wipe It up, my daugh¬ ter?"
" I intended to returu and do so ; bnt get¬ ting engaged on something else^t forgot it." " Well, my danghtei, wben yon do wrong, you shonld try to repair it to the best of yonr ability, and as soon as possible. Get tbe mop and wipe it np, and try not to do so again." ¦
Catharine Immediately does as she is bid, remarking:
" I will try to be more careful another time."
Mrs. A., may be found in almost every community. Mrs., B., though, perhaps a more rare personage, yet graces many fami¬ lies iu our land.^J5riii«A Mother's Journal.

In opening this column to our readers we feel like congratulating you, -that snob a column devoted as it ia, exista in a weekly of so wide a circulation in tbis " Garden of tbe Key Stonfl State." Reaching, as it does, tbe hearths of many of our sturdy farmers and industrious meobanios; picked np and read by all of tbe family, from Grand pap down to little 8-year old Sae, we are in hopea it may in ameaanre mitigate the errors arising from tbe circniation of snch worse than trashy papers as the "N. Y. Ledger," "Mirror,'* "Trne Flag," "PoUce Gazette," &o.
Knowing the variety of tastes that wiil bave to be consulted in all clasaes and ages, we shall endeavor to cnll and clip for tbe "Educational Column," snch matter as will instruct the young children, encourage fatber and mother, and please grand-pa aud grand¬ ma.
We confess we love little children. Not for what they might, could or should be, but for what tbey really are. Not good little children only, but the mischievous little ones. Why we bave aometimes come to.theooncln aion, that if there were never to be anymore little children, this world would not be worth liviug iu very loug. Then out of thia love of children we profess to try to gather such matter for tbia our precious column, as will tend to render them more bappy. We—or somebody else—bas discovered that in chil¬ dren lies tbe secret spring that opens the fount of enjoyment in the parent. What mother does not delight to see her son bap¬ py ? What father does uot feel a quicken¬ ing thrill of pleasure npon noticing tbe pure enjoyment of bia daughter?
Then we ask you not to pardon ns, but jast bear in miud that our general aim is and wiU be to improve theyonng aud edify the older. Not presuming,hoWf ver, to do it with the pen bat the scissors, Aud ahould wo in the course of our cuttings meet witb some gentle hints to parents and instructors, we shall take pleaaure in giving them to yoa as " bome truths for home consumption."
Hoping to be able to have a weekly tete-a- tete with you aU, dear readers, we shall close this introductory paragraph with tbe request that if any of you are wiUiug to take up your pen to add to onr little apace that wbich you think wUl be of general in¬ terest, that yon will not neglect to lend us a helping hand and aid us in our undertaking. All communications. Queries, Qut*stions aud Problems will be thankfully received.

and they grow comparatively atraight; in another they are made to sit as still as rebel¬ lious nature will permit, »'xcept at recess time, and the two minntea a day occupied in aaying a, b, c. In one guarded achool, at least half of tbe pupils are tanght in oue class, and the attention of all is secnred; in another three or four are tanght at a time, while the reat aro Idle or in miachief. Some school¬ rooms, by acrupulons neatness and the taste¬ ful arrangement of a few articlea of ornament, are made attractive and pleasant, while others look naked and cheerless. In one interme¬ diate school the pnpils were trained to cleau- liness aud good manners, with extraordinary success—they were really civilized and re¬ fined ; while in another the slovenly urchins appear Uttle better tban semi-barbarians, the difference being due entirely to tbe difference in the teachers,
I thonght It important to Inquire very fre¬ quently as to the ages of the pupils iu the first and second classes. One teacher, of large experience, takes great pains to send forward the pupils to the Grammar School before mauy of tbem get beyond the age of eight, taking care to keep the dnU ones from falling back,—while those of premature men¬ tal development, with large beads on small bodies, are judiciously restrained, till their physical growth can cnmo up with their in¬ tellectual ; another does not discriminate, and each is aUowed to go bis own pace. From one scbool, bat one candidate was sent up to tbe Grammar School, aud he was sent back. From a school in the same vicinity, more than a dozen are sent, and they do not miss one quesiion in the examination.
The management of recess deserves more atteution than it receives. There is room for much improvemen here. At one building whera there are six schools, the recess is conducted in admirable order. Wholesome discipline governs everything from the time the pupils leave their seats till they retnrn to them. In other places, the yards daring recess are scenes of disorder, aud schools, not of moral training, as they shonld be, bnt quite tbe reverse. In one scbool a firm aud gentle rnle, and a loving sympatby, bolds every scholar in obedience, with bonds as strong as steel, yet light as air. Another subdues opposition and conquors restiveness hy the stern sway of the government of force,

These are a few of the extremes observed,

Alice was sobbingaudiblj, and her mother's face was contracted by a dark frown. Bnt, the latter's heart was qaite full, too, though she nerved herself to keep down every out¬ ward show of emotion.
" Well, sir, 1 came bere prepared  io pay for whatever damage I had done,"  rejoined | the Captain, loftily; "butif you  expect  to i get anything out ot me, yoa must learn to \ use more respectful language."
" Pay for it!" cried out the widow, aa she suddenly and excitedly jumped up from her chair.
"Pray, be quiet, Mra. Serrell," said the minister—for that was tbe old gentleman's vocation;—"no doc^bt your nepheiy wiU do all that ia right."

Aliceberself was taken sick shortly after the night of her marriage, and for several months, was confined to her bed. Ultimately, however, she recovered her health and strength ; and, finally, a degree ol her spirits. She never znarried again, but devoted all her time and energies to her child, who grew up to be an honor and a stay to her old age.
Watson Bradley waa, of course, loo brave and patriotio a man not to take up arms in defence of liberty ; consequently, it was not long after the occurrence recorded above that he was found in the ranks of the patriots.— He lived, however, to see his country free, and died calmly in his bed.

The Struggle and the Victory.—" Johnny," said a farmer to bis little boy, '* it is time for you to go to the pasture and drive home the cattle."
Johnny was playing ball, and the pasture was along way off; buthe wm accustomed to obey, so off be started without a word, as fast aa hia legs could carry him.
Being in a great hurry to get back to play, he only half let down the bars, aud then hur¬ ried the cattle throagh, and one Sne cow, in trying to crowd over, stumbled, and fell with ber leg broken.
Johnny stood by the suffering creature, and thongbt to himaelf, "Now what shall I do ? That was the finest cow father bad, and it will bave to be killed, and it will be a great loss to father.   What shall I tell him ?"
" Tell him," whispered the tempter, tbe same tempter that puts wicked tbougbts into all our hearts, " t'll bim you found tbe bara half down, and the creature lying here."— " No, I can't aay that," said Johnny, " for that would he a lie."
"TeUhim," whispered the tempter again, " that wbile you were driving the cows, tbat big boy of Farmer Brown's threw a stone, and hurried that cow so that .she fell." " No, no," said Johnny; " I never told a lie, and I won't begin now. I'll tell father the truth. It was all my fault. I was in a hurry, and I frightened the poor creature, and she fell and broke her leg."
So having taken this right and brave re¬ solve, Johnny ran home as if he was afraid the tempter would catch him, and he went straight to his father and told h'm the whole truth. And what did hia father do ? He laid his hand on Johnny's head and said, " My son, my dear son, I would rather lose every cow I own, than that my boy should tell me an untruth."
And Johnny, tliough very sorry for the miachief he had done, was much happier than if he had lied to screen himself, even if he had never been found out.
ExAMPLE.-Does one person in oue Ibousand think how he came by his habits, tastes and aversions? We so naturally fall into the ways of thpse we associate with, so easily adopt their manners, dreas, and, to a degree, tbeir sentiments, that before we are aware, we are quite different from what we were in other situations. Do we associate with the sordid and the vile ? We are inevitably dragged down to a lower plane. Impercepti¬ bly, at firat, tbe change proceeds; we loae the freshness of true life; then tbe accumu¬ lating darkness of life abowa itself, increas¬ ing till groaaueas and gloom quench the last glimmer of expiring purity. So, habitual communion with tbe noble and elevated raise
Where does it begin ? It is a common say¬ ing "we send our children to scbool to be¬ come educated." Educate ia to draw out tbe mind. Does the mind of the child He dor¬ mant until it is old enough a-.:1 sent to scbool? Is indeed the mind of tbe child in tbe hands of the teacher, like plastic clay in the hands of tho potter ? Nay, ten thonsand impres¬ sions are made upon that plastic mind, ere tbe teacher's hand is called to shapen it.— Among the earliest impressions, are tbose formed by the look of its mother. Who has not noticed, that an infant will laugh heartily at a cluck and shake of tbe head from its mother, when, if a stranger doea the same tiling, it will look quite sober if it does not even cry. - -.
' And how confidingly the little one turns to its mother for sympatby, when any little accident happens to it. The true mother is antinexhaustible bundle of sympathies to ber group of little ones. Alw.-ya ready to pour oat the balm of consolation whenever called on.
A few days since buainesa called us into a family of which the heads were unusually intelligent.
Little Willie, a lad of three or four sum¬ mers, was running around and struck his side against the aofa. Of course, mirt-U was instantly changed into weeping. Children's laughs and cries seem always so near the surface that,but a littlejostle will spoil eitber of tbem, without reference so mnch to the extent.as to the intent of the blow. In this instance, tbe mother commenced pouring ont her oil of consolation in that appropriate mauner so pecuU.ir to a mother, when the father interfered, and in.sisttid that he sbould be left alone and not made such a baby of.— That making such a fuss over him for every little hurt, will bnt make him cry tho more for every little trifle. Ifyou do not notice him he will soou get over it, and soon learn not to mind such trifles. Bnt the mother's instinct was stronger than the Philosopher's reasoning. "Willie was surely hurt or lie wonld not cry so."
This small incident set us to thinking.— We concluded that, if this world was void of sympatby, it would be so near congelation that the first breath frnm tbe arctic region would freeze it harder than Lot's wife. We are but grown up babies, and love sympathy dearly, and although to let a ohild get over its mishaps without noticing it, witl tend to make a child grow up strong, hardy ,self rely¬ ing and persevering ; yet with all, there will abound, so strong a proportion of 8elfishne.<is, as to mar the whole character and life of the individual. Let sympathy be freely given, but not prodigally, and then we may feel witbin us, growing with our growth, that we live not for ourselvps alone, Thia should always be kept in view in early educatiou.
