The Father’s Error.
Mr. Solomon Winthrop was a plain
old farmer—an austere, precise man,
who did everything hy established
rules, and could sec no reason why
people should grasp at things beyond
what had been reached hy their great
grand-fathers-. He had three children,
two Ihivs and a girl. There was Jere
miah, seventeen years old ; Samuel,
fifteen ; Fanny, fourteen.
It was a cold winter’s day. .Samuel
was iu the kitchen, reading a book,
and so interested was he that he did
not notice the entrance of his father.
Jerry was in an opposite comer, en
gaged in cyphering up a sum which he
had found in his arithmetic.
Sam,” said his father to Samuel,
the youngest boy, "have you worked
that sum out yet?”
No, father,” answered the boy,
hesitatingly.
"Didn’t I tell you t’o stick to your
arithmetic till you had done it?” said
Mr.jWinthrop, in a severe tone.
Samuel hung down his head and
looked troubled.
“Why haven’t you done it?” contin
ed the father.
I can’t do it, father” tremblingly
said Samuel.
Can’t do it l And why not! Look
at Jerry, .there, with his slate and
pencil. He had cyphered further than
you have long before he was ns old as
you are.”
“Jerry was always fond of sums and
problems, father. They have no in
terest at all for me.” •
“That’s because you don’t try to feel
an interest in your studies. What
book is that you are reading?”
“It’s a work on philosophy, ^father.
“A work on fiddlesticks! Go, put
it away this instant, and then get your
slate; and don’t let me see you away
from your arithmetic until you can
work out those roots. Do you under-
staud ?”
Samuel jnode no answer, but silent
ly he put away his philosophy; and
then he got his slate and sat down in
the chimney corner. Ilia lip trembled
and his eyes moistened, for bp waa
very unhappy. His father had been
harsh towards him, and he felt that it
was without a cause.
“Sam,” said Jerry as soon as their
fhther had gone oqt of the room, “LU
do that sum for you.”
"No, Jerry,” replied the young
brother, with g grateful look; "that
will he deceiving father, ni try to
do the sum, but I fear I shall not suc
ceed.”
Samuel worked very hard, but to no
purpose. His mind was not on the
subject before him. The roots and
squares, the bases and perpendiculars,
though comparatively simple in them
selves, were to him a moss of incompre
hensible things; and the more he tried,'
the more he became perplexed and
bothered.
The truth was/ihis father did not un
derstand him.
Samuel was a bright boy, and un
commonly intelligent for one of his
years. Mr. Winthrop was a thorough
mathematician; he hardly ever came
across a. problem he could not solve,
and he denied that his boy should be
like him; he considered that the acme
of educational perfection lay in the
power of conquering Euclid. He seem
ed not to comprehend that different
minds were made with different capaci
ties, and what one mind grasped with
ease another with equal power would
fail to comprehend. Hence, because
Jerry progirased rapidity with ms
mathematical studies, and could al
ready survey a piece of land of many
angles, he imagined that as Samuel
mode no progress in the same branch,
he was idle and careless, and so treat
ed him accordingly. He never can
didly conversed with his younger son,
with a view to ascertain the true beut
of his mind; but he had his own stand
ard of the power of all minds, and he
pertinaciously adhered to it.
There was another thing that Mr.
Winthrop could not sec, ahd that was
that Samuel was continually ponder
ing upon such profitable matter as was
interesting to him, and that he was
scarcely ever idle; nor did his father
see, either, that if he ever wished his
boy to become a mathematician, he
was pursuing the very course to pre
vent such a result. Instead of endeav
oring to make the study interesting to
the child, he was making it obnoxious.
The dinner hour came, and Samuel
had not worked out the sum. His
father was angry and obliged the boy
to go without his dinner, fat the same
time telling him that he was an idle,
lazy lad.
Poor Samuel left the kitchen for
his own room, and there he sat and
cried. At length his mind seemed to
pass from the wrong he had suffered
at the hand of his father, and his face
lightened up. There was a large fire
in the room below his chamber, so he
was not very cold; and getting up, he
went to a closet, and from under a lot
of old clothes he took forth some long
strips, .jnf. wood. He was eyi
fashioning some curious rifiur from
these pieces of wood. He had bits of
wire, little scraps of tin plate, pieces of
twine and dozens of small wheels that
he had made himself; and seemed to
be working to get the whole together
after some particular fashion of his
own.
Half the afternoon had thus passed
away when his sister entered his cham
ber. She had her apron gathered up
;n her hand, and after closing the door
softly behind her, she approached the
spot where her brother sat
Here, Sammy! see, I have brought
you something to eat I know you
must be hungry.”
As she spoke, she opened her apron
and took out four cakes, a piece of pie
and some cheese. The boy was hun
gry, «uid hesitated not to avail himself
of his sister’s kind offer. He kissed
her as he took the cakes and thanked
her.
Oh, what pretty thing is that you
arc making ?” uttered Fanny, as she
gazed upon her brother’s labor. "Won’t
you give it to me after it is done ?”
‘Not this one, sister,” returned the
boy with a smile; “but I will make
you one equally as pretty.”
Fanny thanked her brother, and
soon left the room, while the boy went
on with his work.
Before long the various materials
that had been subject to Samuel’s knife
and pincers were graved and joined to
gether in a curious manner.
The embryo philosopher set the ma
chine—for it looked like a machine—
upon the floor, then gazed on it intent
ly. His eye gleamed with a peculiar
glow of satisfaction; he looked proud
and happy. While he stood and gazed
upon tbs child of his labors, the door
openened and his lather entered.
“What! are you not studying?"
exclaimed Mr. Winthrop, as he notic
ed the boy standing in the middle of
the floor.
Samuel trembled when he heard his
father's voice and turned pale with
fear.
Ha! what is this T raid his father,
as he caught right of the curious con
struction on the floor. “This is the
secret of your idleness. Now I see
how. it is you cannot master your stud
ies. You spend yow time in making
them fly-cages, HI see whether you’ll
learn to attend to your lesson or not.
There!”
As the father uttered these harsh
qaeulatiohs, he put his foot upon the
object of his displeasure, The boy ut
tered a quick cry, and sprang forward,
bat too late. The curious construction
was crushed to atoms—the labor of
lnng weeks. Covering his face with
his hanfla, he burst into tears. “Ain't
you ashamed?” said Mr. Winthrop.
“A great boy like you, to spend your
time in making dap-traps, and then
cry about ft because I choose that you
go to the barn and hdp Jerry with the
corn!”
The boy was too full of grief to
make any explanation, and without
a word be left the chambef’; but
for long days afterwards he was
weary and down hearted. Sams
ucl,” said Mr. Winthrop, one day
after the spring had opened, “I
have seen Mr. Young, and he is
willing to take you as an apprenticed

farm, and.I think the best thing

Mr. Young was a blacksmith in
n neighboring town, and lie carried
on quite an extensive business.
One of the pleasing incidents coti-
dfcw bent to the. nected with an extended term of
professional life, is that which brings
into fraternal rc-union, at stated pe

Young carried ou quite a large
machine shop, be was in ccstacies.
His trunk was packed—a good sup
ply of clothing having been pro
vided, and after kissing his mother
and sister, and shaking bauds with
his father and brother, he mounted
the coach, and set off for his new
destination.
’ He found Mr. Young all he could
wish, and went into tbe business
with an assiduity that surprised his
master.
One evening, after Samuel Witt
throp had been with his new master
six months, the latter came into the
shop after all the journeymen bad
quitted work and gone home, and
found tbe youth busily engaged
fittiyff pieces of iron. There watt
quite a number on the bench
side, aud some were curiously rivet
ed together, and fixed With springs
and slides, while others app>eared
not yet ready for their destined use.
Mr. Young ascertained what the
young man was up to, and he not
only encouraged him in his under
takings, but be stood for half an
hour and watched him at his work.
Next day Samuel Winthrop was
removed from tlje blacksmith’s shop
to the machine shop.
Samuel often visited his parents.
At the end of two years his father
was a little surprised when Mr.
Young informed him that Samuel
was the most useful hand in his
employ. Time flew fast. Samuel
was twenty-one. Jeremiah had
been free almost two years, and was
one of the most accurate and trust
worthy surveyors in the country.
Mr. Winthrop looked upon his
oldest son with pride, and oiten ex-
a wish that his other son
could have been like him. Soon
Samuel came home to his parents,
and Mr. Young came with him.
Mr Young,” said Mr. Winthrop,
after the tea-things had been clear
ed away, “ that’s a fine factory you
have just erected in your town.”
Yes,” replied Mr. Young, “there
are three of them; and they arc
doing a heavy business”
“ I understand they have an ex
tensive machine shop connected
with the factories. Now if'my boy
Sam is a good workman, as you
say he is, perhaps he might get a
first-rate situation there.”
Mr. Young looked askance at
Samuel and then smiled.
“ By the way,” continued the old
fanner, “what is all this noise I
hear and see in the papers about
those Winthrop looms? They tell
me that they go ahead of every
thing that was gotten up here be
fore.”
“ You may ask your son about
that,” replied Mr. Young, “it is
some of Sam’s business.”
“Eh 1 what, my son ? Some of
Sam—”
The old man stopped short and
gazed at liis son. He was bewilder
ed. It oould not be that his son—
his idle son—was the inventor of
the great power loom that had taken
all the manufacturers by surprise.
“What ‘do you mean? he at
lepglh inquired.
* “ It is simply this, father, that
the loom is mine,” returned Samuel,
with conscious pride. “I have ins
vented it, and taken out a patent,
