Fireside Department. How Skylark Preached a Sermon. Stories, as well as poems about the skylark, abound; but the fol lowing storv shows the constant love of Englishmen" for 'this truly English binl. v There is no such thinjr as a song-bird natural to An stralia; there .are birds that chatter and birds that shriek, but no bird that sings.- Well,there was a young maa-who' went out from England as a gold-digger, and was fortunate enough to make some money, and prudent enough to take care of it. He opened a "store," (a. sort of rough shop, where almost anything could "be lad), at a place called i'The Ovens;" a noted gold-field, about to hundred miles from Melbourne A ha continued to prosper, this young man, like a dutilul son,wrote home for his father and mother, asking them to come out to him,and, if they possibly could, to bring with tnem a Jam. rne old rolks agreed, ariVT ihi due. time, with sl lark1 tin charge they took ship and left the snores ot England. The old man, however, took the change so' much to heart' that he died; but the old woman and the lark landed in sound health at Mel bourne, and were speedily forward eito Mr.,Wilsted's store at "The Ovens." It was on Tuesday when they arrived, and the next morning " the lark was hbng outside the hut, and at once began piping" up. The effect was wonderful, jsturdy dig' gers big men with haiiy'faces and great brown hands paused in the midst of their work, and listened reverently. Drunken diggers left unnmsned the blasphemous sen tence, and looked bewildered and ashamed. Far and near the news spread like ilightning: "Have yoii heard the lark?" "Is it true, male, that there'is a real English 'skylark up at dacK w listed sr" . , So it' went On for three days, and then came Sunday morning. Such a. sight had not bean seen since the first spadeful of the golden earth had been turned! From every quar ter east, west, north and south from far-off hill, and from creeks twenty miles away, came a steady stream of rough, brawny English men, all brushed and .washed as de cent as possible. The movement was not arranged beforehand, as was plain from the half-ashamed ex pression of every man's face as he met Ms acquaintance in the crowd. There they were, however, and their errand was to hear the lark ! Nor were they disappointed. There, perched, in his wood-and-iron pulpit, was the little minister, and, as if he knew the importance of the task before him, he plumed his crest,and lifting up his voice he sang them ;a sermon which touched, his audience more closely than perhaps even the uistiop uimseit could nave done. It was a wonderful sight to see those tnree or four hundred men, some lying on the ground,-some sit ting with their arms on their knees, aud their, heads on their hands,some leaning. against trees" with'their eyes closed, so that they might the bet ter fancy themselves at home, and in the midst of English corn-fields once more; but whether sitting, standing or lying, all were, 'equally quiet and attentive and when, after an hour's -steady preaching, the lark ceased, his audience suddenly start ed off, a little low-spirited, perhaps, but on the whole happier than when tneycame. les, and doubtless in many a breast the lark's warble, had stirred .the memories of the lessons learned in the village school, or in the village church at home, and had wakened muttered longings for those "means of grace," for which they had cared so little when they were within their reach. So. the skylark preached his ser mon, and many of his congregation wished that they could have taken him away with them, to preach to them in their distant diggings day oy uay. "I say, Joe," one digger was heard to say to another "do you think Vilsted wonld sell him the bird, you Know; vu give as much sold dust for him as henveighs.and think him cheap." ifpii i i . ... . . "oeumm: not ne: ' was the in dignant answer; how would you like a fellow to come to our village at home, and make a -bid for our parson?' Home Pets. To Spoil Girls. First. Be always telling, from her earliest childhood, what a beautiful creature she is. It is a capital wav to inflate the vanity of a little girl to oe constantly exclaiming, "How pretty!'' - Second. Begin, as soon as she can toddle, to dress her out in fashiona ble clothes and rich dresses. Fond ness of dress will thus become s permanent characteristic, and will usurp the whole attention of the young gin, and be a long step to wards spoiling her. Third. Let her visit so much that she finds no happiness at home, and thereiore will not be ant to stay there and learn home duties. She will. thus grow as useless as modern fashionable parents delight their daughters shonld be. Fourth. Be ireful that her educa tion gives her a smattering or all the accomplishments, without the slightest knowledge of the things really useful in life. If her mind and time is occupied in modern ac complishments, there will be no thought of the necessity anil -virtue of being of some real use to some body. Fifth. As a consequence, keep tier in proiounu ignorance ot all the useful arts oriiousckeepinjr.imnres sing upon her mind that it is vulgar to do anything for yourself, or learn anything tbatis done in the house. .Sixth. To complete the happiness of your spoiled daughter, marry her to a bearded youth, with soft hands, who knows as little, hpiv.to eanrtnoncy as she does 'to save it. Her happiness will then be finished for life. to to ed Patience. There is a story told of a certain Chinese scholar who st tod appal led wuen, in ins ires am an year, the page ol possible knowledge and Chinese literature was unrolled be fore him. He went out of his col lege for his constitutional in de spair, meditating return to the pa ternal roof and the uncongenial task of tea-culture. During his walk he met an old woman rubbing a crow bar upon a stone. He asked her what she was doing. She replied that she had broken her only needle, and was employed in converting the crowbar, by patient friction, in to' a new one. Tsien-Chung return ed to his college a wiser and more hopeful man, and resumed the stud' .of Chinese literature, and, report says, died an eminent scholar. an is is and to Farm and Household.

The wow carrat used to express the fineness .of gold, is so called from Abyssinian bcan.which.fromtlie time of itsgathern, varies very lit tle in its weight, and fortius reason used in Africa as a weight in gold, as it is in India for gems and pearls. It is, with us an imagina ry weight used to express the pro portion of gold in a civen mass of metal. Thus, if an ounce of gold divided into 24 parts or carats, then gold 20 carats fine is that in which 20 parts are pure metal, and 4 parts silver, copper or some other alloy. f in It is one thing to wish to have truth on pur side? and another wish be on the side of truth.
