HOME SWEET HOME. There are few who are insen ible to the fond and pleasing recollections which the mention of that simple word, Home, naturally excites. It is difficult to conceive a heart so hard and cold, or a soul so utt€rly void of sensibility, as not to be d eeply affected, when looking back through the dim distance, it beholds once more the scenes of its early years, the beautiful home of it;:s chi ldhood. There is no place so dear, as the p lace where we were born and reared; no scenes so beautiful, as the scenes of our youthful days; no grove' or fields or me.<tdows so- lovely and enchanting, as those where in childish innocence we whiled away the spring-time of life. It has been said that the sweetest words in our language are, "Mother, Home and H eaven" and can we not almost say that the word Home includes them all; for who can think of home without rcmem bering the gentle mother who sancti fies it by her presence, or without picturing to himself that better la ud as ahome where joy will be everlasting, where brightness will never end in r..ight. Home happiness is a type of the eternal happiness of H eaven; home joys are the purest joys of the heart: home memories are the fondest and dearest memories that linger round the portals of the soul. Thete are no more pleasing recollections than those of the "smiles an<! tears of boyhood's years." There is no picture so indelibly .stamped upon the soul as that of our father's fireside; and there is no love so tender and so deep as that which we bear to tho e who are near and dear to us at home. Th ~ugh we may wander abroad among strangers and live with them happy and contented, though we seek homes in

other lands and seem to feel no inclin ation to visit ngn in the scenes of ou r early life ; yet, who will say tkLt t he memory of home has been obli terated, that the _ lJri gbt pic tures of y outh's. happy hours have been era_ se(1 from 0ur souls, or that the lov e we bear our kincL r eel , especially o nr fathers and moth ers, the gtJnr(lians o f our chihl hood, idS b een banished from .OUt' hearts? No, such is not in the nature of man. Other memvries may vvither and <l eeny; lmt _the memory ot home and firesid e will be evcrJ'resh nnd gree11 . Can we ever forget the tond mother wilo w:1tehed over om innocence and in- . ,;tille<'l into onr youn g hearts the first lessons of virtue? C[ln we ever forget the good father who from morning to night, in sunshine and in rain, toiled and lab ore c1 for our support? And can we ever iorget the clear brother and sister, who joyed in our j oy and wept in our woe, -who were the companions of our innocence, ~'1_1d partakers of all our sinless pleasures? Sooner will-the stars forget to come forth at night, or the monntn,in shadows cease to diverge from the setting sun, than we will lose a single trace of those dear familiar faces that once gathered round the ftreside of our well remembered home. I recollect a very pleasing incident wltich beautifully illustrates _how the love ofhome,-though sometim es darkcued and clouded, is never entirely obl iterated in even the most degraded of wretches. Come b~1 ck with me in history a few years and traverse in imaginati•m the gay streets and gilded saloons of Paris. Passing through its splendid thoroughfares is an Englishm;m who b:ts left his home and native laml to enjoy "the pleasures of a foreign country. In the midst of !Jis happin.ess temptation assailed him. He drank wildly and deep of the intoxicating cup· Reason was soon ov erwhelmed, and be rnshed out amid the glare and splendor of that voluptuous city, utterly r egardless of what he did or how d eeply be becam•1 imm ersed in t he hitherto unkpo wn sea of guilt . The coo] night air fanned his heated brow, and soothed his iiu shed cheeks. W alking on, strains of music from a di stance . met his ears. Following in the direction of that so und he so.on distinguished t he words and air. It was "Home sweet Home," a song be well remembered. Motionless he listened till the last note floated away and he could !_lear nothing but the ceaseless murmur of a gre:•-t city. Turning around a tear trickled clown his cheek. As the soft strains ot "Sweet Home" floated to his ear, memory brou6ht up before him his own "Sweet Home." H e saw, his gentle mother, and heard her t:peaking tenderly of hi111; he saw-, too, the tearful f~m~we ll of all those dear ones that once gladdened that f~tr - away home with t heir presence. Immediately his heart smote him; he aba ndon ed hi s ev il co urse ; left that city of gaiety and

pleasure and after years of w&nde-ring finally retuvne-d to England to d ie at home at last. It seems indeed impossible to wholly .obliterate our lov e for t hose scenes tl.mong which we spent oul' boyhood clays. Memory will ever cherish them as her fondest treasures ; she will ever regard them as the immet'li_ate j ewels of her sou l. Stern fate may tear LlS _ from tl'lem; but, for nil t his, they are never forgotten . No matter, iu cl ecd, where we roam, or in what -clirrie or realm we stnncl, til e m vgn ~t of our so uls will always tmn fondly round, and tre_mbling- point to our clear native home, 1 that sweetest spot on earth. · Let those, therefore, who will ere many days experience the untold pleasure _ of v isiting their parents' fi reside, be thankful that tltev have yet a home to 00'0 • to , t hat t!Jey are-not like so_many others who witb0~1t fa ther Ot' mother, sister or brother, wand er .about in a cold cold world , sighing in vain for those heavenly j o3·s that clu ster aro und a peacefu l and happy home.

M. REFLECTIO NS ON THE USE OF BOOKS. I

Let us direct our attention to -t hem, in the first place, as the instru ctors, companions and friends of our solitude. ·what excellent instrnctors, what symp athizing comp:tn ibns, what honest friends they are! How can a. man be really solitary when these and nnture arc with· • him and arou nd him? How c:.1,-n it be said of bun that be is without society, even though no being of flesh and blood should be near ·him , when he can sit down in !Jis closet with the best and brightest miucls that ever dwelt and benmed in r esidences of cln.y; wi th the masterspirits of all tim e ; with t he souls of the mighty li ving and the mighty cl e:tcl, the dead who yet li ve; with ancient and modern la w-givers, philosophers a nd bards; wit h moralists and sr,tirists ; with ci vilians and divines; with navigators ancl tra ve!lers ; with th e explorers of nature an cl the professors of art; with pa.t riots, saints a nd martyrs: with the apostles of Cllrist and the prophets of God? ·t~Yllo shall SfLY t!J at with these he i;; alone? vVho shall ·s::ty that when sorrowful he is without c nsolers, that when j oyful he is without partakers and helpers of his joy , that in ltis desir<:os for information he .is without teachers, that in trials f\JH1 perplexities and _ in the various conditions of hi(mind and feelings he is without spirit ual ad visers ?
