The reliance which the heart places in childhood upon a mother’s love, can only be surpassed by' the trust which piety, in riper years, re poses upon its God. There is no apprehension that cannot be lulled In the refuge aflurded by a mother’s aims, nor ia there any anguish that cannot be mitigated when the heart reposes upon her bosom.

. Tata it is true, is a topic upon which much has been said, and that too by some of the most forcible and elegant writers; yet it is aeubject in the elucidation’of which no eulogy can transcend. Neither the poet nor the paintcrcan give to theirdelineations the brilliancy oflhe diamond, so a mother’s love and the consequent trust of her child, are among those strong features which no panegyric can perfectly portray. It is in allusion to a mother’s love, that the Almighty commends to us a mindfulness of bis own absolute affection.- How deeply wretched then, must that child be, who in an hour of suffering turns in vain to the refuge which nature ordinarily renders the stronger, because of the feebleness oflhe one who needs the succor.

MISCELLANY.

These reflections were strongly forced upon my mind some time since, upqn my being requested by an afflicted father to accompany him to bis dwelling, lor he purpose of administering Christian baptism to his little son. When I entered the room, I found the mother weeping over the child, who appeared to oe scarcely six years of age, though 1 afterwards ascertained he was nearly nine. He had a full fair face, and a Sue black eye. He Was in every respect a beautiful boy. I soon perceived that his eyes were fixed, and ho was regardless of every thing around him. while death could not be distant. His mother informed me that be bad been a very healthy and uctive child, until he was about five years of age, since that time, nearly four years, he had scarcely grown any, nor had be ever spoken. “1 have always,” continued the mother, “from my earliest days, been filled with horror upon hearing thunder.

The village gossips would recount heralmostnumberless conquests, especially amonglhesiudentaof the neighboring College. Many a fascinated undergraduate had thought more of her than ol his studies, and received % his trouble a coquette’s smiles and his tutor’s frowns, Mary was indeed beamilul, and full of that graceful Ugbl-heartcdness, which more even than beauty bewitches one, but which is so often, alas! found united with headless coquetry. At first 1 was led to believe that what seethed the general o- ’ pinion was true. But 1 soon thought otherwise. X could not hut believe that a form so lot ely, enshrined a heart—a heart, too susceptible of the purest and holiest passion (hat mortals know. My classmates, however, only smiled and shook their heads at what they celled my Infatuation. But I had noted her actions for some time closely, and in a measure, unobserved. The more,.! saw the more was I convinced that Mary had yet to love, and that when she did it would bo with a fertor of which few are capable.

With the exception of a few specially designed to fill the learned professors—and these may fur the most part be confined to those who are physically unable to get their living by hard work—all boys'at the age ol sixteen, having previouslly been well educated at school, should be put to some useful trade. No parents is faithful tu bis sons, or looks out for their future prosperity, who differs them to grow up without an earnest designation of the business they are'to pursue, and an'education specially adapted to quality them for such business: lie who enters upon manhood' without a trade, as a farmer or merchant, or without a profession, is put afloat on the uncertain sea of lire without any destination in view, and without rudder, compass or any other means of a successful cruise.

Should they succeed in either of these professions, they would yet find meanwhile much convenience from.knowing how to cultivate the earth, or to use tools; but should they not suctrade would be of vast importance to them, as an ultimate and safe resort under the vicissitudes of fortune.
