Influence of Children.

We cannot but think thut this constant presence of human nature, pure and happy, of simple and innocedt enjoyment, exerts a great though little noticed io- fluence on this whole great fighting family of man; and that each member of it for- goes somewhat of his selfishness, abates something of its fury after every such contemplation of something happier than bimself, which never yet regarded self, never was infuriated by passions. No wonder that the greatest of men have mostly evinced a passionate fondness for children ; neither is it surprising that in some persons not otherwise of weak char- acter, such fondoess should even tise to excess. In our mourningover 2 lost child, the very sources of our comfort bear io them an embitteriog venom for our grief. To him its smile and play were the io- vigoratiog spirit that nervec him io the conflict; and the very ‘apathy of the whole world besides, its utter want of sympathy with him in his (to their feel- ings) trifling loss, becomes itself an ad- ded souree of poignant, lonely, heart- consuming misery.

To dream of a miil-stoue about your neck is a siga of what you may expect if you marry an extravagant wife.

To dream that your nose is red at the tip is an intimation that you had better leave off brrndy and water.

If you dream of clothes, it is a warning not to go to law; for, by the rule of con- trarces, you will be sure of a nonsuit.

To dream of a fire is a sign that if you are wise you will see that all the lights in your house are out before you go to bed.

Dr. MELVIN’s Capsicum Ponovs PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than & hundred of the ordinary kind.

Being, however, convinced of the wonderful cures effected by DR.
