AUTUMN AND WINTER. at rsurcns ones.

The autumn is going with its beauty so glowing, And Winter o'er all thi is casting its pull 3

The rose-tree is fading, no 0 er’ tis shading The arbor of love or the brig t water-fall.

The dahlias are lopping. the ri fruit is dropping, The corn-leaves are wither and dry on the stalk ;

'I'he ri -dove is sighing, the grasshopper dying, The fly no longer ealivens the walk.

The forests are ehaugin , the wild birds are ran tug To hunt out a hole w era the skies are more c ear ;

The stream dsepl flowing. the chilly winds blowing, All tell us that inter, cold Winter is near.

Sntnmer‘s oweetl while we’re tasting. away all are

a rig. The days of the peach and the melon are o'er t

Then let us be tr lug while An utnu is dying. To lay up for inter a plentiful store.

Work freer and harder, till the barn and the larder, Thou give to old Winter, vvhene‘er shall come, A welcome most svilling ; we'll heed not his chilling. If tbere’s warmth round the hearth-atone and plenty at home.

But while we are cheerful-«to cause to be tearful, us think of the children of Sorrow and Wrong. And give from our treasure, with no stinted measure. Of the good gifts of Heaven to help them along.

UNCLE TOM’S LOG CABIN.

This book has been the most fortunate of any publication; for a long period. Already l30.000 copies have been published in the United States, for which Mrs. Stowe, the talented autboress, has received twenty five cents per copy, and thus realised a handsome competence by this single work.

In Canada, a cheap edition has been published by a book- seller of'l'nrotito, of which iriany thousands have already been sold. In England, the work has had an almost unprecedented sale. The London correspondent of the Boston Post sa_vs :-

Uncle Tom’s Cabin is meeting with it run of favor wholly unprecedented in an American book on this side of the Atlantic and indeed in any English book. It has been republished by no less than live different houses, its history with one of which is stair specimen of the w oe lest-rs. Clarke & Co., ol I"leet_ street. struck oil‘ an edition of 5000 in April. It lllddl‘ no stir until the middle of June, although it was advertised very extensively. From then it began to make way, attd sold at the rate of I000 per week through July. In August the demand become very great, which went on increasing until the 20th, at which time it became ocrfrt-tly overwhelming. They have new above 400 people ellIpltI_\efl in some way or other about the book, and seventeen printing mat-liines in motion.—— The following is a correct statement of their sales, viz :- lllustrated edition. 7: 6d. fifth thousand; original edition. 2s 0d, thirtieth thousand; railway edition, ls. ninety-filth thous- and; people's penny edition. thirty thousand weekly.

The disgusting features ofnezro slavery, and its tlemornlisittg influence upon all classes, are well pourtrayeal in “Uncle 'l‘oiit‘s

abin,” without exapgeratioii or romance, and the work is calculated to have an immense effect upon the future of slavery in the United States. This book’ seals its fate.

Max: Yovrtsnar INDIIPINIABLE 'ro revs EMPLOYERS.-— Make yourselfindiapensable to your employers ; that is the golden path to success. s so industrious, so prompt, so careful, that if you are absent one hour out of the usual time, you will be missed, and he in whose service you are, shall say, ‘I did not dream L——— wasso useful.’ Malta your employer your friend, by performing with lninnteness, whatever task he sets before you; and above all, be not too nice to lend a band at dirty work. no matter how repug- nant to your sense of neatness it may be. 'I‘he success of your hu- siness in after years depends upon how you deport yourself now. If you are really good for anything. you are good for a great deal. Be energetic, put your manners into your business; look as well as act with alacrity; appear to feel an interest; make your master's sue, ocas your ovrn,l you have an honest one. Let your eye light up at his request, and your feet be nimble; there are some who look so dull and heavy, and go with so slow and lazy a price, that it is irk- Iome to ask what it is your right to demand of them; be not like these.

Be the arch upon which your employer may rest with safety; let him feel that he may entrust you with uncountcd gold.

you do an errand lightly ,yon begin to lose his confidence; if you forget twice some important request, you cannot be trust If you accustom yourself to loose and untidy habits, you will gain no re- spect, but rather contempt. Avoid theatres. cardroonis, billiard sa- loons. as you would the pestilence; little faults are like no man loop-holes in your character, through which all that is valuable sifts out, and all that is precious sifts in to fill up the empty places.

Do on say you want some pleasttre .7 make your work a pleasure. There are two ways ofseeing the sun rise—one with a dull, com- plaining spirit. that, ifit could, would blot out the gret luminary. with its wish -w y flood of eternal cottipluints, the other with it joyous, lark-like pleasure, soaring out and upwards. and seeing all along the western path, gates of gold and palaces of ivor . So there are two ways of doing work; one that depresses the sou by its list- less, formal, fretful psrticipntions,the.other that ninltes labor a boon and a blessing, and pursues it not only for gain. but the highest ex_ Iltotion of the mental and moral being —Oliue Branch.

Ps:ctIr.rAu HAsi'rs.—A man may have virtue. capacity, and conduct, and yet be insupportable. The air and manner which we neglect as little things, are frequently what the world judges us by, and makes them for or against us. There are many little mut- ters of nnl bearing and conduct, which must be managed dis- creetly, if we wish to be at all agreeable to our fellow-crctiturcs. It 'n in vain to say that such a mau,though dirty as a pig,is a good and able man. and ought therefore to bedeligbted in. lis goodness and his ability are very well in their own way; but 'twere Ill possible to hold a firebrand in one’s hand by thinking on the frosty Caucasus, as to endure the personal juxtaposition of such a man upon a more con- sideration of such abstract properties. For all the personal inter- course. the personal ualilications are the prime considerations. Not I. it is neoosssry.t at every man should be externally elegant, or as adopt in the rules which constitute good breeding. The want of puitivsly good qualities is of less consequence than the presence of positively bad ones. he most fastidious will lind no ditlicult in enduring a man who is little skilled in the nice formalities o the drawing-room and dinner table. If such a man is unobtrusive. he will pass very well,though it is certainly desirsblt ,that all should be to a certain estnnt prepared to act according to those laws which class of refined society have found to be conducive to their hit plness. sat no "man" can expect to be much liked, who is addicted go certain habits of a conspicuous kind, the direct tendency of which gs to psinfulfselisgs in those a '

They were bred together in the famiIy—Nature has never separated them- nnd the establishment of separate schools for the sexes is productive of great evils. The family is the first form of society, and all other forms are perfect in proportion as they conform to the order of the faintly. The union of the sexes would promote order in the school, and stimulate exertion. for the respect of the sexes for each other would impose beautiful moral restraints, and lnoits to excellence.
