The Reason. "Why is it John,"
asked a lady teaqhor of ono of her pri
mary classes in botany, "that the flow
or of a daisy ia always on the top of a
stock looking up? "I can't toll was
tho decisive answer. "Next" said the
toachor. ' don't know," replied tho
second. "I guess I'vo got it," said an
urohin nt tho foot of tho class. "Well,
what do you say, Ralph ?" "I thiuk,"
said tho boy, looking down upon the,
floor, "it's for tho same reason that tho
school-marm's waterfall is always on
tho top of a stalk, looking up: 'cause
it's the fashion.

Hogs nro gcnorally quadriped.
The cxtrcmo length of thoir nntiqut-ties-has
never been discovered; they
existed n long timo before tho flood
and hev existed sum timo since. '
There is a grcqt deal of ititornal rev
onow in a hog; there aint much more
wnsto in them thnu in nu oyster.
Even there talcs can bo worked up
into whissels.
Hogs nro good, quiet boarders; thoy
alwur. cat what is set before 'em, nnd
don't ask any foolish questions.
Tho hog cun bo Unit n great tnonny
cuiiniu things, such ns histing tho front
gate oil' from tho hinges, tipping over
the swill barrels, n finding n hole in
the fence tew git into a com field ; but
thnr aint any length to their memory,
it is awful hard work for them to find
tho same hole to get out at, especially
if you aro anyways anxious thoy should.
Thoy novcr hnvo any discazo but
tho measles, and they novcr hnv that
hut onco ; onco socins to satisfy 'cm.
There is a great many breeds
amongst them.
Somo nro n closo corporashnn brood,
mid ngin somo nro bill more apart, liko
a hemlock slab.
Thoy can all ruto well ; a hog which
ran't ruto well hcz been mado in vain,
Thoy nro n short livid animal, and
generally dio as soon ns they get fat.
They used to hov a breed in Now
Knglnnd a Jew yenrs ngo which thoy
called tho striped hog breed ; this breed
was in high repute with the landlords;
almost every tavern keeper bed one,
which ho used to show travelers, and
brag on him.
Somo arc full in tho face, liko n town
clock, and somo are as long and lean
ns n cow catcher with n stccl-pointcd
none onto them.
Hogs nro very contrary, and seldom
drive well tho same way you are go
ing; thoy drivo most tho contrary way.
This hns novcr bin fully explained, but
speaks volumes for tho hog.
The Union as it was. Schuyler
Colfax said in 180-1 : "Rut they say wo
are for tho Union ns it was. I, too am
for tho Union ns it was, and the reason
I denounced the speech of Alexander
Long, and the reason I opposo tho roe
oguitition of tho Confederacy is bo
cause I will not consent to nsinglostar

of our national baiinor. Thoy uro nil

a State. If you wnnt any of those
stars plucked out and your flag tram
pled under loot, you should select
somo other man for Representative, for
never, no, nover, shall I consont to it.
Dut it these men menu by tho Union
as it was, tho hanging ot men in Texas
for daring to voto for tho President of
their choice, thou I am not in favor of
tho Union ns it was. If thor mean
the right to mob and murder mon
from the North becauso thoy boliovc
iu tho Declaration ot Independence,
then I nut not in favor of tho Union as
it was. If thoy mean by it tho right
to commit all manner of outrages on
pcacable, law-abiding citizens from tho
North becauso thoy happen to hold
ditl'eront viows from them, then I am
not iu favor ot tbo Union as it was.

A Geo4 Wife
Whore indeed, can th6 noieat tod
earnest virtuo of n woman, tell a etrtni'
gor story of its worth, than on the
dawning habit of a child ? Where can
her grneo of character win n higher
and a riper effect, than upon tho action
of her household ? What mean tatw
noisy dcclaitncrs who talk of tho fee
ble influence, nnd ot tho crushed facul
ties of n woman ?
What school ot learning, or of mor
al endeavor, dopouds more on its teach
er, than the homo upon tho mother?
What influence of all tho world's pro
fessors and teachers, tells so strongly
on tho habit of a man's 'mind, ns thoso
gontlo droppings from a mother's lips,
which day by day, and hour by hour,
grow into the enlarging statute of bia
soul, nnd live with it forever ? Thoy
can hardly bo mothers who aim at. 8
broader ami noisier ncia ; inoy nav
forgotten to bo daughters ; thoy rausi
needs havo lost tho hopo being wires.
Bo this how it may, tho hoart of a
man, with whom affection is not, a
name, nnd lovo a mere passion of the
hour, yonrns toward tho qnict of a
home, ns toward tho goal of his earth
ly joy, and hope. And as you fasten
there, your thought, and indulgent,
yet dreamy fancy paints tho loved im
ago that is to adorn it, and to make it
sacred.
She is there to bid yon Godspeed 1
and nn ndiou, that hangs like musio
on your car, ns you go out to tho every
day labor of life. At evening sho is
there to greet you, ns you como back
wearied with n day ol toil : and her
look bo full of gladness, cheats yon of
your fatigue; nnd sho steals her arm
around you, with a soul ol welcome,
thai beams liko sunshino on her brow,
nnd that fills your cyo with tears of a
twin gratitude to her, nnd Heaven.
Sho is not unmindful of thoso old
fashioned virtues of cleanliness, and of
order, which give nu air of qulot nnd
which secures content. Your wants
nro all anticipated; tiio firo is burning
brightly ; tho clean hearth flashes un
der tho joyous blazo ; tho old elbow
chair is in its place. Your very un
worthiness ot nil this, haunts you like
an ncciising spirit, and yot penetrates
your heart with a now dovotion, to
ward tho loved ono who is thus watch
ful of your comfort !
Sho is gontlo ; keeping your lore
as sho has won it, by a thousand name
less modest virtues, whiuh radlato from
her wholo Ufo and action. Sho steals
upon your affections liko a summer
wind breaking softly over sleeping val
leys. Sho gnind a mastery over your
titcruor nature, by very contrast; and
wius you unwittingly to her lightest
wish. And yet her wishes nro guided
by that dolicito tact which avoids con
flict witli your manly pride; sho sub
dues, by seeming to yield. By a sin
gle solt word ot appeal, she robs your
vexation of its anger; and with a
slight touoh of that fair baud, and one
plcuding look of that earnest eye, she
disowns your sternest pride.
Sho is kind : shedding her kindness
as Heaven sheds dow. Who indeed
could doubt it? least of all, you, who
aro living on her kindnoss day by day,
as flowers live on light? There la
norio of that officious parado, which
blunts tho point ot benovolonoe ; but
it tempera ovory action with a bless
ing. If troublo has como npon you,
sho knows that her volco beguiling
you into cheerfulness, will lay
vour tears: and as sho draws her chair
besido you, sho knows that tho tender
and confiding way, with which jho
takes your hand looks up into your
oaruost face, will drivo a way from
your aunoyanco all its weight. As
sho lingors, leading off your thought
with, pleasant words, sho knows woll
that she is redeeming you from care,
and soothing you to that sweet calm,
which such liome aud such wife can
alouo bestow.
She is good : hor hopes live whero
the angels live. Her kindness and
gentleness are sweetly tempered with
tho meekness and forbearance, which
nto born of Faith. Trust' comes into
her heart as rivers como into the sea.
And in tho dark hours ot doubt and
foreboding, you rest iondly upon her
buoyant faith, as the treasure of your
common life; and iu your holler mus
ings, you look to that frail hand, and '
that gentle spirit, to lead you away
from the vanities of worldly ambition,
to the fullnessB of that joy, which tho
good inherit.
Somo weeks ago, during a severe
thunder storm, a lady friend was tell
ing tho children not toj bo afraid ;
that God held thunder in his band,
and would not lot it hurt them unless
' Ho thought it for tho befit. She had
1 W
hardly oouoludcd whon a very loud
clap was heard. "There, now 1" says
a Jour-year older, "God has let go of it,
and has gono home out of the raiu 1"
Somo wretoh of an editor says that
another twist to tho present mode ol
"doing up" tho ladies hair would tak
thom ofl their feet.
