 To the young, especially, would we recommend habits of close and careful observation. We ewculd say to them 'ovERLooK NoTArNG.' Do not de- spise the day of small things Endeavor to turn the leisure time you may have; tine money you may earn or inherit; the privileges you may en. joy in short, every thing, the best resshle ac- count Take care of the minutes and pence, and the hours and pounds will take care of themselves He who learns to regard his leisure mon ents as yalueless, and habtually squanders for tries, the small sums of money he may have, because they are small, will never be learned or rich. The secret of success is to be careful of little things

 sSpend no moment but in purchase of it's worth, And what it's worth,ask death beds-they can tell.

 Professor Ingraham, in his last new work, " The young genius," thus characterizes this town as the vast cordwanery of the Union: s.,,.,-l[..,,-. D "The very pleasant and thriving town of Lynn is the paradise of shcemakers!

Lovers exchange hearts over kid slipper, and sweas fidelity upon lap-stone, If they would get married they ass old pr.

A child new born Is lap-st0ae, and the ages of children are known by the aunsber of the shoe they were.

ERUPTION OF MoUNT ErNA.-The following particulars ofthe recent eruption of Etna arc given m Q letter from Palmero: s ,,l

 t@S A eruption touk Tface western side ol Etna on the 17th of November. The crater opened near Monte Rosso,l not far from the eruption of 1892 Three rivers of lava are formed, and are flowing rapidly in the direction of Maletto Eronte, and Aderno. At the date of the last account, Nov. 22, the lava, which is flowing across the Bronte, is of considerable thickness, and had arrived within mile of the town. The inhabitants were flying in alarm, carrying off their portable property. Bronte was enclosed in two streams of lava and the posi- tion' of the inhabitants was frightful. The lava took as its bed the high road from Palmero to Mes sina, and it is feared that it may fall into the torrent of Slmento, which is quite Close to the road from Aderno. to Leon Forte,' and which falls into the Gulf of Catana, where it might cause grave ac cidents. The road from Palnero to Catania. is in- terrupted by the lava. All the canto1s around Et- na are afflictedwith an atmosphere of ashes which obscures the suns rays. The subteTranean rum- blnSs of the volcano are heard far asJCantania, and the ground has sort of quiyerng motion (which leads the inhabitants to fear approaching earth quake. ai9,i,r f.. -s5,-,, ..f. t.|'I- . ,yr.-,

 

 the night before the eruption. A fine rain fell, which changed the color of the silk in the umbrei las, and burnt it. A professor of chemistry having analysed this rain, found that it contained large quartity of muriatic acid. The eruption commen- ced, as already stated, on the l7th of November, about half past two, in the desert region of Monte Rosso. A thick smoke, miXelwith sand, was sent forth, and rocks hurled into the air showed that the force below was most actiye.> A constant un- duatng motion was felt in every part of the noun tain, Lava was soon perceived to make it's appear ance, and it descended rapidly to the woody region, where 1t divided into three streams, the northern proceeding towards the wood of Maletto, the South one towards Bronte, whilst the third menanced the district of Aderno. During the day the smoke increased tremendously, and being collected above the Etnas covered it completely. A quantity of sand fell from it continually on the eastern part of the mountain, and did much injury to shrubs and crops. A strong smell of sulphur was perceptiblc, even at the bottom of the mountain. .a~ n3t ni On the 18th the lava continued to make it's way towards Moletto, and the titled grounds of Brontc An excessive activity continued to prevail in inc crater, and sand still fell the whole sc nhern and eastern sides On the 20th the st rear of lava which had threatened Bronte appeo led ID direct ;ts course towards the south, over the old lava of Monte Egftto The other two c,.frrents nursued their course, one towards Aderao and The other to wards MalettO. On the sout, end east Etpa ia en- tirely covered with smoke. L .-. ''''.,l Another letter, dated Pal.nero 4th. in the Aups- burg Gazette, states that the lava had syept away several houses. and destroyed 57 persons r+ ceived stating that the err pto of Mount Etna still continued on the 2Sth of last month. The lava had reached the decl' 'ne of the mountain, and ap- preached the river Simento. Considerable dam age mas been done to innumefable fertile fields and Vineyards.
