I THURSDAY, JUNE "WATCH, MOTHER." Mother, watch the little feet Climbing o'er the earden wall. Bounding through the dust street. Iteming cellar, shed and" halt Never count the moments lost. Never count the time It costs: Onlde them, mother, while you may, la the safe and narrow way. Mother, watch the little hand, Picking berries by the way ; Making house in the sand, JTossing up the fratrrant hay. Never dure the question ask . ' "Why to me the wenry task " The same little hands mav prove Messengers of Light and Love. Mother, watch the little tontre, (Prattling, eloquent and wild J hat Is said and what Is sung By the joyous, happy child. Catch the word while yet unspoken. Stop the vow before 'tis broken : Tills same tongue mnv yet proclaim Blessings la a Saviour's name. Mother, watch tbe little heart, Beating soft and warm for you; Wholesome lemons now imparts Keep, O keep that young heart true. Kxtricating every weed ; Sowing good and precious seed ; Harvest rich you then may see, Kipen for eternity. 1 Written for tbe Advertiser. SAUL, KIXG OF ISX2AEL. On a low couch, with a drapery of rare embroidery, sat Saul, King of Israel. Ills tail, elegant form was bent ; his large beautiful eyes glared wildly ; and to look into then: was to see the tempest of a soul. At times he would rave ; then he would mutter strange words In low tones. He was surrounded with wealth and luxury. On tables carved from the cedars of Lebanon, were salvers of silver, exquisitely wrought, filled with luscious fruits fig9, olives and pomegranates and . golden . , goblets filled with wine pressed from grapes gathered from the vine-clad valley of EshcoL . -liis robes and the tapestry of the room were of the richest shades of Lydian dye. ; Servants stood ready to minister to his wants. Around him were wise- men and poets, prophets and seers. Wise men, witn head bowed low. whispered in a sad voice. Poets, "with the eve In a fire-phrenry roll ing" drank, inspiration from this wild storm of the mind. Others gathered glittering threads out of which . to weave a story which would give them a name among the "Immortal names which were not born to die." But what are wealth, talent, genius. learning, to a mind not at rest? The King of Israel was tormented with an "evil spirit from the Lord." A servant stepped forward, and stood before the King and said: - "My lord doth know that music can drive the evil spirit from the troubled soul. - Shall I bring hither that come ly youth, the 3011 of Jesse;. he is a skillful player on the harp," The King said . "Bring hither David!" ' The servant soon returned, bring ing with him "the sweet singer of Is rael. The proud step and lofty bear ing told that he was born to command and not to serve. Yet he bowed be fore the King; and the eye of young David fell In gaze for a moment upon him, and his quick thought knew that, because of liis rebellious heart, would not serve Israel's God, that Israel's. King Avas thus afliicted. In sweet tones he said, . "How is it with my lord, the King, to-day." He then swept his fingers over the harn-etring, and such sweet sounds came forth and floated in the air, that all hearts filled with rapture, and went out after the great soul of harmony, who "dwelleth in light unapproacha ble" whogiveth his children on earth vision of immortality, and fills their heart with the melody of Heaven. The countenance of the King changed. For "It came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that pavid took a harp, and played with his hand; so Saul was refreshed and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him." His eyes softened. A smile of peace settled over his features ; and his soul, which was tossed like a lost ship on a stormy sea, became as quiet as the still waters after a tempest has swept over them. In subdued tones he said. "David, I perceive the God of Israel is with thee. Thou hast found favor in my eight. I must sleep." JENNETTE HARDING. London, Neb. From the Jollet Signal, Jane t. Fearful Condition of AtThJrs In tbe Illinois Penitentiary About ten days ago, a quarrel took place between two convicts while on their way to the quarries, with a gang from the prison under charge of guards, which resulted into a desperate fight with knives. Both the combat ants were wounded, and one of them so severely that he died on the follow ing day. But the bloodiest affray yet, occur red on last Thursday. As the Con victs were setting down to dinner, a quarrel occurred. between . two large and powerful men. A few words pass ed, when both parties drew forth large sharp pointed knives, and a most terrific and deadly struggle en sued. They fought the entire length of one of the long tables, stabbing and striking alternately, and were not sepe rated until they began to fail from the loss of blood. The floor and tables were bespattered with blood, tond the scene was one long to be re membered. They were both taken to the hospital and one of them expired in five minutes. His body exhibited no less than half a dozen fatal stabs. The otherjwas severely wounded but survives yet. . An inquest was held over the body of the dead man by Coronor Reese, but the jury could not agree upon the verdict. This case will probably come before the grand jury. , Such is the condition of affairs ex isting at present in the Illinois State Penitentiary. There is no sort of dis cipline. The convicts are allowed freq license to do as they please. They knock down the guards at pleasure, and commit murder among themselvs. And what Is unheard in the prison discipline, more than one half of the convicts are armed with knives and murderous weapons. This being the, case, an open revoltand the murder of scores of innocent men Is momentarily expected- When we remember that there are nearly twelve hundred des perate men confined in the penitentia ry, for crimes of various grades, and that more than one half of them are armed with deadly weapons, we can- hot avoid trembling at the consequen ces which may be momentarily ex pected.

For the Advertiser. Beauty and Fashion. Of all who inhabit our globe or Fphere; of all who have a bearing in the world, there can scarcely be one found who does not profess or mani fest some desire for the possession of that which we call personal beauty and a desire to be f;i?hionable. The individual who may be spoken of its the plainest looking and uncouth apparently, will instinctively halt and pause for a moment in front of the mirror, and will be seen Tapidly ad justing the hair or fixing the dress for something genial of personable ap pearance. This is true of all mankind in air ages and all countries. The most virtuous and moral on one hand, and the voluptuary and revealer on the other. The mirror may be found as universally as the Bible, and looked into, we may say oftener. It is said that the savages upon the far distant islands of the South Sea will Importune the stranger for a piece of looking glass in which to behold his personal beauty and fashion, and when obtained, it will be deemed and considered as an invaluable treasure. But personal beauty must necessarily, and does depend in a very great de gree, upon the state and condition of the skin, while artificial beauty de pends upon fashion and mode of dress. Tho Roman ladies were considered handsome, but they were indebted to the care they took of the skin, for that transparency of complexion which they possessed. The Grecian mythology has repre sented the godess of love to have arisen from the depths of the sea, thus it was indication that she came forth washed ' and abluted, refreshed and purified, and hence she was consid ered as beautiful. A fresh and transparent complexion adds stupendously to the beauty of a male or female. But how few of our country and nation jossess this charm, although all might become possessors of a good complexion. In our land king fashion reigns pre dominant, and there seems to be a general court of appeals in all matters of dress and appearance, whose au thority Is readily admitted, whose changeful freaks are heartily ridiculed by all, save the devotees who worship without cessation at her shrine, and whose fiats are lamented by the Just, and vainly opposed by the philosophic. 'But we may pause for a moment and ask from whence does she receive her right to supremacy ; from what attitude or source does she derive her sovereignty, placing us in the hands of thraldom and gyles servitude. And when we contemplate lor a mo ment the extent to which fashion has carried us, we caunot but exclaim that there is not a physiological law in ex- lstanco : not a law of beauty and ex cellency, and scarcely one of true mod esty that has not been violated and mlringed upon with impunity, and it is almost impossible to adduce a shape of deformity which has not in some manner or other been honored by fashion soa;. arid fashion natronaire. Every nation! has its peculiarities and words of operating, and so every people have their modes of dress and ginger-bread fix up, and it seems more natural far one to follow the dic tates of fashion in order to promote ar tificial beauty than it is for one to fol low physiological laws to promote natural or personal beauty, and the reason for this we cannot assign, un less it is because it is fashionable to do so ; and it ha3 been said that we might as well be out of the world as out of the fashion. There is tiuite a contrast between the fig leaves of the antiquarian world and the stays and Grecian-bends of modern times. We have become a prey to that which will shorten our stay upon the earth. The ribs are flexible, and a small amount of pressure will aug ment or increase their curvature, and hence lesson the size of this cavity. . We are daily bowing In the most object and servile bandage at the beck of a clique of the most dishonoring specimens of silly humanity that mod ern civilization has ever produced amid the fresh, moral atmosphere, and contaminating associations of Paris; and if we Mill follow fashion it should come from our own plastic hands, and not imported from Paris. Fashion does not conhne itself to the moral and sinful world only, but sways iU tyrannical scepture to a certain . extent ever the religious world, for in the cities you will find the free gospel penned or boxed up within pens and cushioned seats, or proclaim ed from a marble stand and between beautiful and painted walls, and it would be a sacrifice for the poor to even venture there. And for health and beauty we would adopt the language of Dr. Armstrong: "In what'ef you sweat, indulge your taster-" Some love the manly tolls. The teuntx some, and some tbe graceful daace; Others more hardy range the purple heata, Or make stubble when from Meld to field The sounding eovies urge their labecing flight, Kager amid the using clood to poor The gems unnerving tbnnder, and there are Whom still tne meaa oi ine green arcner cnanu. Tie chooses best whose labor entertain His vacant fancy most tbe toil yon bate. Fatigues yoa soon and scarce improves your oeaaiy. Herd Law.

Kaymorid accompanl ed by his daughter, went to Green wood Cemetry yesterday afternoon, for the purpose- of selecting a family lot. He Intended to have the body of one or his children, who died a few weeks ago, removed from the vault and re-interred.

None of the inmates of the house heard the fall, however, having re tired for the night. About 3 o'clock this morning, one of his children be came restless, and upon becoming ful ly aroused remarked she heard some person breathing heavily. ... The per sons in the house were awakened. and on descending to the hall-way, Mr. Raymond was found extended on the floor, entirely unconcious, breathing heavily and apparently with great difficulty. lie was carried to his room and placed on the Ded and physicians sent for, four of whom arrived soon after, who examined him and pronounced him beyond all medical aid.

I he news or his death caused much excitement and very general regret throughout the city. All down-town hotels and newspaper offices displayed their flags at half-mast as a mark of respect. The Associated Press to-day adopted resolutions expressive of profound sor row at the death of Mr. Raymond. A Move to Make Judre Chase President In 1S72. New York, June 18. -A movement has lecn commenced among some dis satisfied Republicans for pressing Salmon P. Chase for President in 1372, and with the supposed Intention of coalescing with the Democrats. Hugh Hastings, or the Commercial Adver tiser, Dudley Field, Thomas C. Mur phy and George Opdyke are mention ed among the parties interested, and two or three meetings have beeri held to arrange plans. A meeting wa3 ar ranged for last night at the SL James Hotel, but there were not enough present to organize. Some who went into the measure at first have backed out of it, on account of its strong lean ings towards the Tammany Democrats and a suspicion that it was intended to carry eonservath'c Republicans into tne .Democratic ranxs.
