Two boys, whom I shall call Jjimes and Churles, occupied the same desk at school aud recited jo the same clues. First, they studied booE-keepuig. use day, James suit! to (Jharles "Charlr, dow what's the use of this book kcepiug f What good will this everlasting 'debit' and 'credit' system do me? I don't see any use in it Cooie, let's play tit-tat-to-" "Neither do I see any use ia it," answered Charles. "It's dry business, I own. these debits, uud credits, and long columns of figures : but my futher wibbestne to study book keeping, and if there was not some use in it I kuow he would not wisn me to pursue it. So 'wet' or 'dry,' 1 am going to study bookkeeping.". Another day their lesson was in navigation, aud James gettiug tired of study, began to murk out a euuie on bis slate, and said : "Come, Charley, what's the use of this navi gation r I know 1 shau t ever be a sailor ; and all this ubout the chart, and compass, aud chronometer what good will it ever do me ? I know I can't ever understand it, and if I could I cau't see what use I shall ever have for it I'd rather play tit-tat-to" "I know it's dry study, Charles replied aod I don't see any use it will ever be to me for I mean to be a landsman aud not a sailor but my futht-r told me to study it, aid yon may be sure I'll m!ud him, for he would not toll mo to study if it were of no use. I won't play tit tut to till I get my lesson." . After that they were studying surveying, and James began again to murk on bis slate, saying ; "0 dear I I am tired of these links, aod chains, and tquares,..and triangles. What use will this ever be to me T And besides, 1 can't understuud it" "I know, replied Cnarles, "it is a bard study, and I don't see what use it will ever be to me. Bat my iutuer kuows more aiua i uu, and he set me to study surveying, and I am going to study it, wbetbor it will ever be of uny use to me or not And, as for understanding it, I never saw any study I could not understand if 1 put my nnua to it. i snouiu h nslmmml to be conauered bv links and cbuius, or anything else 1 find in surveying. X0U UOU lCUlcnmu piuyiug iii-tut-iu uu mr lesson is learned." Thus sot these two boys side by side. Ibe one studied and the-- other played. The one always had bis lesson well learned ; tbe other missed or, if he could do it, be would deceive bis teacher by looking iu his book at recitatiou. And there they formed their characters j wheu they left school, and went to business, they cornea wita them tne same habits. Charley took for bis motto, "Business first, aud then pleasure ;" and he was always applying what be had learned, at school to some useful purpose, fiat James found bag Iness as tiresome and distasteful as his studies, lie was always intent on amusing himself, and instead of muking his employer's business bis own, be was sways studying how to do as little as be could and keep bis place, aod al-ways glad when tho store was shut up, that be might seek amusement. ' Charley rose vapidly ia the esteem and confide uce of bis employers, and in due time he became head clerk, and then partner, and at length be became a wealthy mercbaut owning ships and stock in railroads, lie wag a director in a bank, aud president of a railroad company. ' " ' Hut James did not please bis employers, and never staid long at one place. .AJler a while bis father set him up ia business ; but the same habits followed bim. He neglected his business, and spent his tin. in idle amusements." In a little while be failed. Again his father set him up, and again he failed. And this was repeated till be hod gpeBt bis estate, which fell to bim at bis father's death ; and, seeing grim poverty stare bim in bis face, he thought of bis frieud Charley, of whose prosperity he hail heard. lie determined to go and see if he could not give biin something to do. - . J , Charles was very glad to see his old seat-mate, and shook bim rerj cordially by tbe hand, not seeming to notice tbe tneao appearance of bis garments. After a friendly chat, Charles said to bim, "Well, .Tames, ia thera anything I can do for you t" James hung down bis bead, and told him his want of suocess in buaiuets, and the straits iuto which be had been driven, and said be should be glad of some employment that would give him living. "WelL my good friend," said the merchant, "I dm glad you have come just at tbe right time. I remember that you and I studied book-keeping together. I want a book-keep er. The salary is $2,000." Again Jsmes hung down his head, and said, "I never uodeistood anything aboot book keeping when we studied together, and I have oever been used to it I can't eep a aet of boos." ' , "Well" said Onirics, "I recollect that we atudied navigation together. I have a ship that wauls captain. Tbe salary is $1,800.' "0 1" replied alamos, "I never could understand LavigntiofJ, and I have lorgolten what Utile I did learn." "But you studied surveying. I have a situation as civil engineer ou a railroad at my disposal The saiary is $1,500." . "Indeed," said tiaruoa, "that is worse yet, aud I have never thought of it sinco," "Well, then," Charles agnin replied, "you can carry the chain, and that will pay you a dollar o day." ' And the poor man was glad to carry the chain for $1 a day, for be was rot capable of doing any luiug bolter while, ir he bad improved his opportunities at school, aod given his attention to buxiness, bo might have bad bis $2,000, or $2,B00, or gl.tiOO salary. CTiW's Wurld. ,. ... Hon.' Hcnrf Winter on Reconstruction and Universal Suffrage. On the 4u6 inst, Mr. Davis delivered an oratiotfto on immense multitude at Chicago. His speech is reported iu full in 'he papers, From his admitted eminent ablity, and bis position as a Ma'rylander, bis views ore regarded as significant and important. It is also significant that his opinions so boldly expressed were enthusiastically cheered by the m asses, j We aek our readers to peruse carefully tho conclusion of bis oration, which we copy entire. All may not agree with the eloquent statesman, but all will consider bis frankness, and power of argument. After discussing the subject of governments for the South he said: But there is a mass of population there thut is on tho sido of the United States, agaiust all white men at the South, whether Union or Secession who to-day have a part iu the Declaration of Independence, which they nevei had before, and which they have yarned on the battlefield, by the side of these gentlemen bearing tbe uuilorms of tbe nation. Uu many a bloody battlefield tbey have proven that they are men, not beasts. Applause. Will anybody on this subject venture to moot the small, paltry question that hitherto hag divided Illinois, . and wearied tbe people of other States, of tbe voting of a handful of negroes lost iu tbe midst of white millions 1 la that the way to state a grave national questiou f Or is it wise in these gentlemen of the uboliiion schools to be always, talking of the justice and humanity of the thing, just as if justice acd humanity ever determined any great question of morals in the world ? It is not a question out ot political dynam ics. - it is a questiou oi power, not of rigut a question of salvation, not of morals.. The alternatives are before us of a republican or a military government, or independence for the Soutb. No State Government has ever been recog nized which ostracized a majority or any great mufs of the people. . Wheu slavery existed, slaves were merged in tbe use of the master. But the'right ot the State to ostracize a great mass of free negroes has never been recog nized. They were a handful everywhere but in Maryland and there they voted with the whites on the adoption of the' Constitution of the United States. If this precedent be set Uow, it is for the first time to be set When n'roes becoruo free tuey become a part of the nation, and to ostrucize them is to sanc tion a principle futul to American free Gov ernment . ' Iu South Carolina there are twice as many negroes as whites ; ia Mississippi there are more negroes than whites ; ia Alabama, Louisiana and in Georgia, tbey are nearly equal. Tbey ore now in sufficient numbers at tbo South to control the result of any election. "They will vote with their masters" insidious gentlemen tell us then at least, let their mas ters De unacr tne uecetssny oi luucning iceir bats to them to get their votes. Laughter and applause. "rhey are not intelligent enough to vote," another says. They know, fellow citizens, a grey uniform from a blue one. Applause. ' 'Ihey know a Yankee from their masters. Applause. ; They have fought well under Yaukee leadership ; maybe they can vote as intelligently under Yankee leadership. Continued applause. They are not spread in equal masses over tbe Southern country, but they aro congregated in particular districts that border the Atlantic, the Gulf, aud the Mississippi, and are io immense ma- jorities iu fully one third of tbe Congressional Districts of the Soutb. They can break tbe terrible uuity of the Southern vote that plunged us iuto the rebellion. Men who are uot capable of understanding considerations ke these nua oeuer go aou wniue aoout ne gro votes. I have seen abou: as many negroes as any of you, have lived ag near them, and siippoee I have as much prejudice toward them as any of you ; but to talk of this after we have had to call them to our aid In putting down this rebellion Is either driveling folly or infinite meanness. Applause. If you did not wish to have the negro hereafter to enjoy the rights of a man, wby did you bury him ou the battlefield T Applause. :Yon white men of Illinois, why did you not have tha quota of your State increased so that the negro should oof be. needed f Applause. We, of Maryland, carried esaucipatioa by going to the poor white men ia tbe southern portion of the State and showiug them that the negro could relieve them frem military service. They did uot stop to discuss bis right to political privileges then. If be Is their and yonr equal on the battlefield, in tbe service of the country, be is, and should be, at tbe ballot box, applause and if he is not your equal on the battlefiold, then you havo cheated the Uuited States, to the injury of the nationul cause to save yourselves from service. Renewed applause. ' ': ' r . ' .... J . .1 . ! TV !J A T-l t mere is novuiug iu a rcciutjut ouuusuus proclamation which assumes to conclude tbe judgment of the Congress of tbe United States or the recognition of State Governments in the rebel States, He may hava had more confidence io the white people of the South than I have he may have desired to give them a golden opportunity of refuting every slander and silencing every ' doubt regarding their loyalty, . Lie might have a hope that when they should be called upon to vote ou tbeir Constitutions under his proclamation, to be ready to present them to Congress iu the form of petitions, for they would be nothing else, that seeing the signs of the times and what justice and humanity require, or rather what the long-headed people of the North will naturally suppose their safety requires, tbey may incorporate universal suffrage as the basi, of their Constitutions. I shall rejoice with him if that result shsll come about, but I am fur from expecting it I will now believe until I leant tbe contrary, that was bis purpose. I will not believe tbe declaration of any person who lays be is opposed to it Lie knows that the only authority that can recognize State GoverumenU at tbe South la the Congress which admits their Representatives aod Senators, thut it must Judge of tbe republicanism of their form of government ' I turu to them with some doubt but with earo!,t bopss, and I appeal to them to be ready for any emergency, to bo cu'uht by no snare, to ykid to no solicitations, not to tuVt any mans declaration as to the safety of trusting the whole mast of tha rebels of tha South with the control of tho Southern States, but to remember that a revolutionary minority can and will throw almost insurmouutnbla obstacles in tbe way of legislation ; tbat tbe minority of the Southern delegations, joined with interested and discontented men from the North may clog aud even arrest the wheels of Government on auy bill ; that they can organize powerful opposition to the paymeut of our national debt and the imposition of taxes, uuless we agreed to their demands to reinstate rebel officers, place tbeir wounded on your pension lists, or idemnify slaveholders for their slaves. ' X pray these genueinea to looK this thing in the eye, aud if they have no regard for "justice and humanity. I would say to them I, like you, gentlemen, am no enthusiast. I am very little of a philanthropist I have no supreme love for tbe intellectual superiority of the negro over the wniie ; but 1 Kuow that his vote is important, and if I bare not much respect for justice and humauity, I have for tbe 3 20s. rLauirhtor and applause.! : I have irreat respect for tbe integrity of the Govern. uient and the possibility of carrying on its machinery, and if their Constitutions do not give the mass of the negroes the right of voting on equul terms with the loyal white men not those who can read, whore it has been a penitentiary offense to teach ono to read for twenty years ; thai is inning with grave mat ters but to tbat mass of the negro population whom we subjeoted to tbe draft, and at whosn bunds we sought aid in the bouroionr weakness. . The safety of the nation requires republican principles, requires tbat no such Government shall be recognized as republican in form, thut no Representative or Senator from such a State shall be admitted to either House, or even complimented with the privi letre of the floor.

Then all the proclamations of the Declaration of Independence Will be executed ; this Government will rest on the rights of individual liberty and on the right of every man to bear a share iu the government of tho conntry 'whose laws he obeys and whose bayonet in the hour of danger he bears. And ' tbe personal freedom which the dark children of the Republic have won by our blood and theirs, will not bo a vain mockery, exposed to violation at the caprice of their masters, enthroned in the Legislature, on the Bench nnd in the Executive Chamber, but, secured by the bayouet they bold, and the ballot they cast, will be Liberty guarded by Power. ; Finding Fault with Children. It is at times necessary to censure and punish. But much more may be done by encouraging children when tbey do well. Be, therefore, more careful to express your approbation of bad. Nothing can more discourage a child than a spirit of incessant fault finding on the parent. And hardly anything can exert a more injurious influence upon the disposition both of parent and child. There are two great motives influencing human actions hope and fear.' Both of these are at times necessary. But who would not prefortobave ber cbild influenced to good conduct by a desire of pleasing rather than by tbe fear of offending f If a mother never expresses her gratification when ber children do well, and is always censuring them when she sees anything amiss, tbey are discouraged and unhappy. Tbey feol that it is useless to try to please. Their dispositions become hardened and soured by this ceaseless fretting, and at last, finding that whether they do well or ill, they are equally found fault with, they relinquish all efforts to please, and become heedless of reproaches f ' But let a mother approve of her child's conduct whenever she can. Let her reward him for his efforts to please, by smiles and affection. In this way she will cherish in her child's heart some of the noblest and most desirable feeliug, of our nature. She will cultivate in him aa amiable disposition and a cheerful spirit. Your child has been through the day very pleasant and obedient Just before putting him to sleep for the night, you take bis bund and say t "My son, you have beeu very good to-day. It makes me very happy to see you so kind and obedient God loves children who are dutiful to their parents, aLd he promises Io make them happy." This approbation from bis mother is to him a great reward. And when, with a more than affectionate tone, you say, "Good night, my dear sou" ho leaves tbe room with bis little heart full of feeling. And when he closes his eyes for sleep, be is happy, and resolves tht he will always try to do his duty. Th Mother at Borne. J . Raising Plants from Cutting. Peter Ileodersos of Jersey City, a noted propagator, gives a simple mode of raising plants from cuttings, such as roses, verbenas, carnatioDsetc, adapted to inexperienced cultivations, although not the mode used on an extended scale. A common flower pot saucer or other dish, is filled with sand, and the out-tings thickly inserted in it It is theq watered until it becomes about as liquid as mud. The cuttings should of coarse be of green or noripened wood, three or four inches long, placed in strong light in a room or green house, kept in a temperature of 60 to 80 degress, but the best at 70 to 75 degrees, allowed to remain from tea to .twenty days till roote l, and the sand kept constantly in this snii fluid state, for if they become partly dry they are ruined. . . -r 9-One of the wintry wonders at tne White Mountains not yet departed andlikely- to linger for some time, is tbe snow in Tuckermau's ravine., A day or two since it was not less than from five to hundred feet in depth. ff A letter from Psris states that tbe French sailing frigate Nereide is fitting out at Brest to make a second voyage round the world. r Lynchburg papers state that J.

Appersoo, aa representatives of the .merchants aud others of Virginia, who wished bim to amend the Amnesty Proclamation, by atrikiug out the 13th Exception to th $20,000 clutise. They ropreseutod that this feature iuterTwred with tbe development of iu-dustry, by binding up capital and in this wuy appeased tbe poor; that when they endevor- ed to borrow money la tne n orthern or Middle States, they are at ouce mot by the object ion that perhaps tbey haJ over $20,000, and if they had, the accommodation could not be extmded, so they were unable to give work to the poor men who called apoa them &o. The Proiidsut reminded them that the am nostv proclamation did not cause this distrust It was tbe commission of treason and the vio lation of law that did it lhe amnesty pro clamutiou left these men just where they were before.. It did not add any disability to them. If they bad committed treason tbey were amenable, to the confiscation law, which Con gress bad passed, and which he as President could not alter nor amend. In the amnesty proclamat!ou he hod offer ed pardon to some persons, but that did not injure any other persons. Would they like to have tbe amnesty proclamation removed altogether T Would tbey feel . any oasior in tbat caser , One of the Delegation; No; but it would assist us very much if you would extend the benefits or the proclamation to persons worth over $20,000. ; The President replied that in making that exception, he acted on the natural supposition that men aidud tbe rebellion according to tbe exteul of their pecuniary means; did tbey not know this! - Ono of the deputation Nu, I did not know it. The President Why, yes yon do; you know perfectly well it was the wealthy men of the South who dragged the people iuto se cession. I lived in tbe South, aud 1 Know bow the thing was done.

I don t think yoa are so very anxious abont relieving tbe poor. Are you very eager to help the poor? Wby don t you tuke the surplus over the $20,000 yon own and give it to them? Iu that way you will help them and bring yourselves within the benefits of the proclamation. I am free to say to you tbat I tbiuk some of yoa ought to be taxed on all over $20,000 to help the poor. ; When I was . military gover nor ot Tennessee, l assessed gucn tuxes on those who had been wealthy leaders of tbe rebellion, aud it had a good effect.

I know there bag seen an euon among some to persuade the people the that amnesty proclamation was injuring tbem by shutting up capital and keeping work from the poor. . It does no such thing. ' If that is done at all it is done in consequence of the violation of law and the commission of treason. Tbe President concluded by saying tbat he would look at tbe papers they preseuted, but so far he had seen no reason for removing tho third exception. .
