Grounds Around Hou'3es.—'I‘here is
nothing in a knowledge of which , our
Don’; countrymen are more deficient, than in
laying out and properly planting and cul-
tivating the grounds around their'dwel-
lingo. Very often they are not laid out
not planted at all, but are left in a state
of primitive blenkness, or only ornamen-
ted‘ by objects of confusion and disorder.
Whore improvement isnctually attemp-
ted, the res,ult'io. not unfrequently a com-
bination of inconvenience and stiffness;
and very few neatly, economically and
tastefuIly.|aid out grounds are to be met
with. Why should not this art, which
every living man in the world ought to
practice, be taught in our higher schools
Latin and Greek are excellent studies
for those who have plenty of time and
means for these as well as other depart-
ments of knowledge; but for such as
cannot master all, would not the months
consumed on Tacitus and Thucydides,
be more profitably spent on those fascina-
ting: and eminently useful studies, draw-
aml architecture, in connection with
landscape gardening? When will the
time come that the latter will have only
an epual chance with the former? Time
once lost never returns; and it is of the
highest consequence that those who di-
rect the mode that young people shqx
spend it at the most critical of all peno
in their lives, should study carefully the
best modes for accomplishing so all im-
portant an object.
Country Gentleman.
‘Arms and Hands.--The question has
been asked why is it considered impolite
for gentlemen to go into the presence of
ladies in their shirt sleeves, while it is
considered correct for ladies themselves
to appear before gentlemen without any
sleeves at all.
The reason is obvious. Each exhibit
that which the other desires to possess-
iadies, their arms—gentiemen, their

Treatment of Children.
Dr.‘ Elliotson, on the treatments of
children. says: “ The suffering to children
and youth from the ill-temper engendered
by the habitual use of alchohoiic drinks
is frighful. The mothers among the
poor scold and cufl" them from boyhood
till the arrival of youth. Tolerable tem-
pers are made bad, and bad tempers ren-
holic drinks. Far happier, more peace-
ful aud moral are the families from which
they are banished. VVere they genera-
Iy banished how much less crime should
we have--How much happier would
youth and dear children be, to whom~
our duties are most solemn. , ‘
Girls and boys are often overdone in order
to make a great show for the benefit of
their -instructors. They require more
fresh air * relaxation, and repose than are
allowed them. Children should sleepin
themiddle of day till they are six years of
age, and never set up beyond any early
hension,’ and crossness of- temper, and
the poor child is punished, when he ought
only to,be_ put to bed. We are conscious
regarding -to
healh make us cross, but noallowance is
made for the young. Children are every
day punished as naughty when they are
only ill, and perhaps very ill. Girls are
confined far too much; and in many cases
allowed no other exercise than a joyless
formal walk, and that perhaps, so long,
to make up for its iufrequeucy, that they
are fatigued and injured rather than ben-
efited- Children and youth require bet-
ter food, more ofit, and more frequently,
than is supposed by many ; though they
should not taste fermented drinks, except
as medicines. How "absurd even to give
them wine as a treat and make them fe-
verish, when some simple, innocent flu-
id would be asgreat a tret, and they would
becontented and happy with water or
milk ! The children are over dosed in-
cescautly dosed by their mothers nurses,
or the family doctor '; -and not a thought
is bestowed upon the torrnent of the poor
things by giving them horribly disgus-
ting pbysic. And how often are they
mercilessly and uselessly blistered !’

-Origin otvthe Whig Party.
Q The Whig Party had its origin in the
I war declared by - Gen. Jackson against
thebank of the United States. It took
that name, and‘-first assumed an organi.
zed existence on occasion of the removal
of the deposits from the United States
bank in the summer of 1833, shortly af-
ter the commencement ofGen. Jackson’:
second presidential term. The name of
Whig, asa proper appellation forthe
party, was first suggested by the Courier.
and Enquirer of this city, which, from
having been a very warm supporter of
Gen. Jacksou’s administration, became
suddeu|y,upon this bank question, a bitter
opponent Of it. The very heterogeneous
materials ofwhich this party was com-
posed, and which, in fact, had no com.
mon bond of union except hostility to
Gen. Jackson, made the selection of a
name for it no easy matter. In the pre-
vious congress the bank had obtained
the passage, by a considerable majority,
-of an act for its re-charter, but this Gen.
Jackson had vetoed. That veto and the
subsequent removal of the deposits were
denounced as executive usurpation. It
was as opponents ofexecutive usurpation
and of the attempt. which was charged
against Gen. Jackson to bend Congress
and the people to his wishes, that the
new party appealed to the people-an
nppeal, it was said, which gave them a
just tilte to call themselves Whigs and
to stigmatize the supporters of Gen.
Jackson and of his measures against the
bank as Tories. This suggestion was
regarded as a happy one. The name
Whig was at once adopted by the news-
papers friendly to the new party, and be-
ing soon recognized by political conven-
tions, xt became before long an established
appellation among foes as well as friends
including all who choose to rally under
the standard of opposition to Gen. Jack-
son’s financial policy
The chief strength of this new party
consisted of the former national republi-
cans, so called-—a term which designa-
ted the amalgamated federalists and dem-
ocrats of New England and New York,

cy; and, secondly, of northern men, dis-

after his election in refusing, after the
general bank suspension, to continue any

The Loss of a W'zfe.—In comparison
with the loss of a wife, all other bereave-
ments are trifling, The wife! she who
fills so large a space in the domestic heav-
en; she who busied herself so unweari-
edly for the precious ones around her ;—
bitter is the tear that falls upon her cold
clay ! You stand beside her coffin and
think of the past. It seems an amber
colored pathway, where the sun shone
upon beautiful flowers, or the stars hung
glittering overhead; Fain would the
soul linger there, No thorns are remain-
beredsave those your hands may unwil-
lingly have planted. Her noble tender
heart lies open to your inmost sight!-
You think of her now as all gentleness,
all beauty, and purity. But she is dead.
The dear hand that laid upon your bo-
-som, rests in the still darkness, upon a
pillow of clay. The hands that have
ministered so untiringly are folded, white
and cold beneaththe gloomy‘ portal.-
The heart whose every beat measured
an eternity of love, lies under your feet.
The flowers she bent over with smiles,
bend now above her in tears, snaking the
dew from portals that the verdure around
her may be green and beautiful.
There is no white arm over your
shoulder; no speaking face to look up
into the eyes of love; no trembling lips
to murmur, "O 3 it is so sad.”
There is so strange a bush in every
room, no light footstep passing around.
No smile to meet. youut nightfall. And
the old clock clicks and strikes, and it was
such music when she could hear it I-
Now it strikes like a knell on the hours
through which you watched the shed-
ows of death gathering upon her S‘-V896
face.

troubles growing out of the French war
in 1754, stopped the work, and the mine
and its workings. subsequently became
the work of the State. During the Rev-
