CHRI Tll

Let joy~beUs ring, their mo ic sing

O,er earth decked out in wllite,

·whilst tlazzli ng flake on ev'ry brake

-Fall with iootstep light:

Like milk- white cloud, or funeral shroud,

Rich clusters droop each limb,

Whilst chilly breeze 'mid topmost trees

Proclaims our new-bor!l king.

The night is bright, our hearts are light,

!::it:.u·s dot the azure deep,

And Joy aod Glee, like waves of sea,

In sportive measures leap:

The welcome cry of the passer-by

Resounds from valley and hill,

\Vith fancy's cr.r we sc~::m to heur­

''Peace to men of good will."

\Y!Jen back to-night, we wing our flight,

To the dim, ta int, twilight years,

The sn.me bright star is ~een afar,

That led our Em;tern seers,

Its mellow rays illume our ways

To a stc'l.ble drear and lone,

·within a babe to nothing cmvc­

N Or s;gh, nor tear, nor moan.

As the sceptre wand in Moses' hand

Caused wat-er once to flow

From rocky ledge, a heavenly pledge

His power divine to show,

So the love of him-at Bethlehem,

A love both tender and pure,

Flows on forever, with respite never,

Our ills :md sores to cure.

And thi Clu·istmas eve om mem'ries cleave

To the olden day long :fled,

To our only Hope,who first did ope

Bright portals tor the de.'td;

Let us revere that Infant dear,

Whose love, like oce.'ln vast,

·without cessation fills creation,

Our shelter when 'tis pa~t.

HOME SWEET HOME.

J.P. M.

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 deeply 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 place 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 Heaven" 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 laud 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 Heaven; 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 inclination to visit ngn in the scenes of our early life ; yet, who will say tkLt the memory of home has been obli terated, that the _ lJrigbt pictures of youth's. happy hours have been era_ se(1 from 0ur souls, or that the love we bear our kincL reel , especially onr fathers and mothers, the gtJnr(lians of our chihl hood, idS been 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 fire­side 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 young 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 sometimes dark­cued and clouded, is never entirely obl iterated in even the most degraded of wretches. Come b~1ck 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 overwhelmed, and be rnshed out amid the glare and splendor of that voluptuous city, utterly r egardless of what he did or how deeply be becam•1 im­mersed in the hitherto unkpown 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 sound 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." He saw, his gentle mother, and heard her t:peaking tenderly of hi111; he saw-, too, the tearful f~m~well of all those dear ones that once gladdened that f~tr-away home with t heir presence. Immediately his heart smote him; he abandoned his 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, iuclecd, where we roam, or in what -clirrie or realm we stnncl, til e mvgn~t of our souls will always tmn fondly round, and tre_mbling- point to our clear native home, that sweetest spot on earth. ·

1

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 0'0 • 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 cluster aro und a peaceful and happy home.

REFLECTIO NS ON THE USE OF BOOKS. I

Let us direct our attention to -them, in the first place, as the instru ctors, companions and friends of our soli­tude. ·what excellent instrnctors, what symp athizing comp:tnibns, what honest friends they are! How can a. man be really solitary when these and nnture arc with· • him and around 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 time ; with t he souls of the mighty li ving and the mighty cle:tcl, the dead who yet li ve; with ancient and modern law-givers, philosophers and bards; with moralists and sr,tirists ; with ci vilians and divines; with navigators ancl tra ve!lers ; with the explorers of nature an cl the professors of art; with pa.triots, saints and 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 joyful 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 spiri t ual ad visers ? No, be is not alone. If he has book~ and leamed how to read them properly b,e always­has his friends about him-good >tn d true ones. Is he fatigued with the labors of hi s vocation? They wil1 reh·esh him with their pleasant conversation ; they will sing to him care-dispelling melodies. Has be met with coldne>s

·and indiiference in tile world? Their welcome is always kind and warm. Has he suffered injury? They will teach him how to be!l.r it. H:u; he himself been erring from the right way~ They will f~tithfully admonish and gently reclaim him. Has he been hurt or is he in oanger of being hurt, not by the rudeness and illtreat­ment, but by the flattery and indulgence of the world? Then how hnppy will it be for him in Lours of retire­ment from outer parade and glare acd excitement if he can call a connci l around him who will speak plain truths of his humanity without clif'gnise or equi voca­tion, and check nncl sober him without fear on their part or offence on his. Hfls death taken awny some one who was very clear to his l.Jeart and delightrul to his eyes? Th!>y will show ,him the pnth which the departed sonl has travelled and teach him how to pursue the saQ1e. Does age come silently on him and draw the invisible but irresistible meslle~ of its net closer and closer around · him , shortening his walks, and entangling and tying up his powers till he is brought in and confined within his own dooTS _?.., He is there among his old ti·iends who, as they wi'!fbe more than ever necessary to his comfort will be more th'\~ ever val!table to him,making him forget that he is a prisoner and causing him to wear his bonds easily and light!y till the summons is sent for his release. How much better it is for a man 'to secure such fri ends for his iiunatcs th~n to neglect all opportunities of cultivating their intimacy till he tincts, as time after time he comes in I rum tbe streets and publie places and turns and shuts bis door, that he enters an empty house- so utterly, dren rily empt.v perhnps, that its vnc:mtgloominess drives him (Ill t again into the !.Jaunts of dissipation and folly . <J ·the highways of excess and crime. How much better it is ti,r him to occupy his solitnry ho11rs in the acqui­sition of useful knowledge than to dream tl.Jem away in 1Jr.oken tlwughts and idle fancies or doze them off in s tupid. inanity. How much better it is to be perpetually filling his mind with the well arranged stores and garni­ture of other minils than to let it lie unfurnished and unimproved till dust and dampness collect and settle in it and birds of night and ill omen make it their cho­sen habitation. r do not s:ty that a man ought not to think and meditate as well as read, and commune in his chamber with his own heart as well as with others. He should do both. He should read that he may think with advantage, and have mt~ terials for thought; and he ~hould think that he may read. with discrimination and profit. His meditations will very likely be ~nconnected and partial and end in pro>j ucliced conclusions, if they are not guided, filled up and corrected lJy judicious and liberal reading. If he does not wish therefore that his solitary honrs should be unprofitable and seductive­if he dreads such an event let him employ them in the perusal of good books. Books are not only the friends

of individual solitude but also of the family circle. They contribute to bind· ~t together, to fill up deficiencies, to cover flaws, to m:tke :t closer and brighter and firmer. By engaging the thoughts, .improving the taste, and excit­ing the kind!~' feelings of the members of the house­hold, they render each one more considerate and gentle and more useful and ngreeable to the res t.. They insensi­lJ!y introctuce mental grace and refinement, a.nd not only this but refinement and grace of manners, where­ever they become favorites. Show us a family in wl.!ich the best and purest authors are loved and read aed, it matters not in what nominal rank of. society they are stationed or wh:tt may be their daily avocation~. I will answer for them that vulgarity and coarse::Jess have no place at their meetings and that domestic pence is a dweller muong them. Books are indeed great promoters and preservers of harmony. They occupy the time which might have furuiF-hed opportunity to discord; and they often, no doubt, soothe irritated passions apd calm excited feelings or give them a beneficial direction.

\ A terder passage of poetry or an affecting incident or scene in prose may bring hearts togeLher in cordial ami­ty which thro' some trifling cause are beginning to l:le estranged from each other, and tune to perfect unison and sympathy nerves which have been trembling on the verge of open dissonance. TlJ.e domestic services, which books are qualified toperform, are particularly valuable when the business and bustle of daylight are over and the active interests of life are hushed into slumber un­der the brooding wings of night. The master of the house comes home from his office, cQunting-room, or workshop; the children come home from school or J?laces of employment; the mother's household duties are done-and they sit down together. What shall they do with the impending hours to keep them from hang­ing hea·vily'I .Yfe suppose that there are some families in town and country who find, if there is no party to go to or no place of public amusement to offer its attractions­such as they may be, or nothing particubrly interesting to discuss in the e':ents of the day or the character or fortunes of their neighbors, that the long winter even_ ings-the evenings of six months in one year-are apt to move off rather slowly and wearily. This would not be so if they would call to their assistance one or two of the friends we have been recommending. How much more swiftly and pleasantly, not to say profitably the hours would then glide away. The darkness might gather murkily an:l the storm beat fiercely without, and they who sit within, listening to the arguments, the facts the fiction, or the minstrelsy of !>Orne· favorite writer, would scarcely heed or hear the terrors of old night. It may be that they would be brought to such a pitch of satisfaction and contentmcmt as not greatly to envy their acquaintances whom they know to be dancing or

THE I NFLUENCE OF EARLY IMPRESSIONS.

The impressions which we receive from the smronn­- dings of our yonth wi ll be either the stay or the bane

of onr after life. Were t.l;lis not the c1se, early training woul<l bf,. useless ; nll the guidance anrl v igi lance of pa-

• rents for their children would be futile. In fact it wonld argue a total worthlessness of everything th~tt tends to improve the mincls ot the young. As a sapling \vhen bent retains the same incl ination when it has become a tree, so it is with the mind of the young. ·when it is old it is not easily influenced by its surroundings bnt when young and tender it is susceptible to any impres­sion gcocl or hacl and these grow with its growth. We see this strikingly exemplified in t he characters of individuals.

A man who has received a good .moral training in his youth :mel who was brought np by virtuous parents wiil very seldom become depraved in his after-life. Even if such a man dir1 become a moral wreck there would still be preceptii.Jle in his character a sense of righteousness am1 a consciousn c~~ , which would tell him that lle w:lR more atpcac:e with his own he:ut when be 1 bs r-rvccl the precrpts of morality.

The root may he all tb.nt is left of. his early training, yet that r oot now and then senr1s forth a ~prout long ~1fler the phnt h:ts been withered.

The Third Plenary Council of Baltimore ha~

completed its bbors and the venerable Prelates who composed it have departed for their homes.

It was the largest Council ever held in any country­a General Council expected- ar..r1 the importance of its deliberations mnst be therefore apparent. The astonish­ing growth of Catholicity in this country and the corresponding needs resulting therefrom made it evi­dent that the time had arrived for legislation more in accordance with the mind of the Chnrch. '\Ve do not presume to infoTm our readers of the matters discussed - they will be made known in dne time- but we are confickut that the members of the Council have acted from a deep sense of duty, actuated by the highest, purest and holiest motives.

What has been done at Baltimore by ecclesiastical

superiors )las heen done for our greater good, with a view to securing our temporal happiness here and 'our eter:ual happine~s here.-1.fter.

The actions of the CounciL will be sharply cri t icised no doubt, but th:1.t must be expected ;the divine Founder of the Church, when on earth, die'! not walk, net, and speak according to t he no t ions of the worldly wise, how then can human beings expect to please '\\-here the Son of God did not? We kn Jw that what has been clone by the Council has been clone well, and as it has been iu the pnst, so will it now be, the good will he ma.de better and the h:Hl may be made good i f they wil l.

In fidelity, intemperanee and hydra-headed crime are stalking boldly over the bud, threatening the desiruc­t ion of the Republic, and it is to rl evise measures to stein the r:1ging torrent of these evils that the venera­ble a.ncl learned prelates of the nation came together. It was not to define any new article of Faith, or to abrogate any previous enactment that they assembled , but to shield n·om danger the immortal souls commit­ted to their care and to bui ld higher the Catholic edifice begun, but left unfinished by their predecessors. Fair­minded non-Catholics appreciate the wisdom displayed by the members of the Couneil, ancl although they do not a ',) cept the teachings of the Church, they nevc,rthe­l~ss recognize the necessity of adopting wise measures for the suppression of crime which has been pictnred in all its hideousness and deformity in the lectures and sermons of the lenrned and eloquent Prelates. Catholics, then, ln ve reason to rejoice that the deliberations oi the Counci l h:we been wisely conducted and that its labors have been crowned with sLwcess . .

It is understood that a Pastoral Letter ac1dressed to the faitllful throughout tne United States will soon be issued, calling attention to the many evils that require to be · resisted and checked, and to the virtues which ~houl d be cultivated, practiEed and protected.

The Third Plenary Council has added a fresh bright lustre to the brow of the heau tiful young Church in America ancf we salute her as she advances in all her ru'ljesty wearing the impresss of her Divine Founder : "Go therefore, and teach all nations." "Behold, I am with you all days, even to the end ofthe world."

In the United States to-day the Catholic Church is a power whose existence can no l011ger be ignored; its influence no longer disregttrded for its record is fair and stainless; anit it comm'lncl.:; the respect of all honest and rightm inc1ed men. All its principles are in harmony with justgovernmentasisshown from its pasthistory, andhe that is a f~tithful member of the Catholic Church will be a correspondingly good citizen for "he that is true to his God can not be false to his country.

If Americans are wise then- and we think they are­they will accept the inevit::tble; ern brace the one true

The. most skil f'ul g:cuger 1 ever kuew was a maligned eobLlcr , armed with a JJOni:1l'cl , who drove a peddler's wngon, using u m ullein-stulk as an instrument of eooreion to tymnnize over his pony shod with calks. He was a Galilean S:tddncoe, and be had a ph t hisicky entarrh, tliph t.berb, and the bilious intermittent erysi­pelas. A certain Sibyl, with the sobriqu et of ',Gypsy," went into ecstDcies oJ cachinnation at seeing him me8s­nre a bushel of pease, and sep:uate saccharin e tomat oes from a heap of peeled potatoes, with011t dyeing or ~ingeing the ignitihle queue whieh be wore, or becoming par:llyzcd wi th a hemorr b~ge. Lifting her eyes to the ceiling of the cupoh of the capitol t o coueeal her nnpa­r:)Jlolocl embanasfment, maki ng a rough courtesy, and not harass ing him with my stifying, rarefy ing, and ~tupelying ionnencloes, she gave him a concl), a lJ onquet of lilies, mignonette, and fn cbsias, a tre:1 t1se on mnem­OJ.;ies, n copy of the Apocrypha in hi erogly phics, ch­guerreoty pes of Menrlelssohn and Kosciu sko, a kaleid­oscope, a dram-phial of of ipecacuanha, a teaspoonful of naphtha for deleble purposes, a ferrule, a clarionet, some licorice, a surcingle, a carnelian of symmetrical propor­tions, a chronometer with a movable bnJance-wheel, a box of dom inoes, and a catechism. The gauger, who was also a trafficking rectifier and a parishioner of mille, preferring a woollen surtout (his choice was referable to a vacillating, occasionally occurring idiosyncrasy) , wofully u t tered this apothegm: "Life is checkered: but schism, apostasy, heresy and villainy shall be punished" The Sibyl apologizingly answered, "There is a ratable allegeable difference bet ween a conferrable elli]Jsis and a trisyllabic d ireresis." We replied in trochees,_riot im­pngning her suspicion.

Academies- Hamilton College monthly stands first in literary merit. It is a! ways replete with a half dozen or more of fair essays on various subjects- and tllese productions bear the stamp ot being original-written by students only. -

The Delphic of Drake Uni,iersity is out in a new :mel ntt.ractive dress. It is more than superior to tile aver<lge College Journal. " Essay on Thom:.ts Moore'' in the l:lst issue was rather attracti ve-t.be writer however not evidencing a close acquaintance with the Poet or b.is writings. • The " Literary Gem" from Clarksville, Tenn., hassome claim to the asmmptioi1 of such a name.
