This is no trivial subject. 1t is sci- ence as regularly taught and learned as any other. The Vermont Chronicle gives a specimen of it with some suggestions which we subjoiD. sy,.,.,

 "Mother--mother--mother-iilay l. may'nt I-I must--do now--mother-- mother--mother-mo sc. &c. Gc. Why, if fifty thousand women had to hear the whole of it, it would drive them crazy! and then, how can woman UOyk to any purpose, whose thoughts are put in confusion every minute by such onsets And then for family government and fam-. fly enjoyment, and family affection-it makes sad work with these and with every thing that is lovely and valuable. l hope children will read this.

 Children are taught to teaze, very much as they are fought to cry. With all his little wants, real or imaginary, the child runs to his mother. They are matters of import- ancc to him. He wants definite and de- cisive answer, one which will settle the question, and his mind will be on the rack till he has it. It is not in the nature of child to feel otherwise. He will have no peace himself, and will therefore give his mother no peace, till he understands and knows that the point is settled. Ifyou give him no answer till he has spoken ten times he will speak ten times and then if he has any reason to suspect that speaking twenty times more will obtain an answer more favorable to his wishes, he will speak twenty times more. And this will soon grow into habit. But give him an an- swer tho first time he speaks, and ho will not be obliged to speak second time to obtain one and never alter your decision for his teazing, and he will soon give it up as of no use. Your answer may be always any thing. It may be, wait ten minutes, and then I will tell you ;'' or "wait till havc done this piece of work" But i, must be something definite, something which the child can understand, and which he knows will not be altered. Ifyou have leisure, and the occasion seems proper one, you may let him argue his case before you decide it, but not afterwards. Indeed, if he has learned by experience, that your decisions are final, he will seldom, if ever attempt it. He will consider an answer as that point, and soon find something else WUH WHICH tO dUuSc uIUSeUs

 Now mothers, do not say that you hGve not time to answer the requests of your children as soon as they arc made. If your time is so occupied that you find it difficult, how can you afford to neglect it, and thus teach them to teaze, and thus bring upon yourself an inconceivably great CT hindrance.

 I love the guileless disposition and art- less prattle of children. Who can look into the face of a young and innocent child, without reading, in the serene brow and unclouded eye, the story of spotless heart 2 Who can listen to its guileless pratt tie, it's unskilfll song, or the merry peal of | its laughter, without wishing that spirit as pure and joyful dwelt in him Alas, the face of childhood, and its clear sweet voice, gently rebuke us for all our errors and pol- iutions. The world-how its touch blights, and withers and consumes us how we are misled by shadows how we grasp at un- substantial things! our passions become raging as the sea our ambition, boundless as the wind. But the heart of child has nc desires beyond the circle of the pateTnal | freSida. The maternal threshold is a limit,
