Few mentlay by much until they hay eae object to lay by for, and thus itcomes to Base | thata famity as now, is avciently, the oat } of hostages to fortune aud none are ve iene : to be trusted as those who have the larges families. Stijl asa family increases around mar he is very apt to feel as if five or six chil- dren were @ constant drain upon his efforts at accumulation, and that children were poverty Gnstead of wealth. But it is notso,at leastin every respect, or even on the largestand broad- estsortofscale. Thus, for instance, in a na- tional point of view, our first method of esti- mating the greatness of States is by the number and rapid increase of inhabitants. Every ehild born im the United States maxes the ra- tion so much the more respected abroad and powerful at home, co much more wealthy and intelligent, for on the average each citizen pro- duces more wealth than he consumes, and in some de partmentor other adds to the accamu- lating stock of human wisdom and experience.

Tt is the “remark of Bulwer, certainly ene of the closest sand best observers map nature, that itis a wood fora young man tc love the so- ciety of men who are older than himself, and for an old man to love the company of those younger. Itis thus that youth acquires the experience and wisdom of aze, and age retains the vigor, freshness and elasticity of youth. Children haye in themselves a fund of wealth in the vee nine affections which God has given them, w! they impart to all who come near have much to do with them. If they call ont'the energies of a man and make him -work hard in the hours of business, they relax sand refresh him with their warmth and geni- | . ality and absence of care in the hours of relax- ation and of throwing off. There is many a father tearful be shall not be able to give his son so good an education, or 0 good a start in life as he had or as he could desire, if there isa large family to share his savings. But there is the best ot all sorts of education in the attrition of a large tamily. Franklin bids a young man who would marry Well toayoid only daughters, but select his ~ wife out ofa large family, because there are 2. thousand rough edges of temper that get rub- led off ‘by the natural action of a number of Phbe: 9 people on each other. Each leans to wealth. For they, make aman economical just at that period of life when heis most disposed to branch out inextravagance. From the full possession of conscious powers, making money very easily, he is apt to spend it as fast. If he dloes this as his strength declines, poverty must overtake him, and disappointment or depen- dance cloud his latter years; bul by pinching ‘when money is coming in fast, wher his chil- dren are grown, he has no retrenchments to make, but rather « power to expand, and take the world more easily while he is surrounded protectors who love him, because he has been their protector.— Philadelphia Ledger. es SA WIESENFELD & OU., Odeon Hall Clothing Rooms, (ESTABLISHED 1847.) { AQORNER PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE AND 42% StREET, Beg leave to enll the attention of the citizens and strangers of Washington to onr very Jarao and extens' assoriment of SPRING CLOTH ING.
