A TOlfflHNfi STORY.
The following affecting narrative pnii
ports to have been given by a father to
hia son as warning derived from his own
bitter experience of the sin of resisting
a mother's love and counsel.
\Vhat agony was on my mother’s face
whin all that she bad said and suffered
failed to move mo. She spoke to me no
nn re until she had reached her own dor r
"It’s school time now,” she saiJ. “Oo
my son and once more let me beseech
you to think upon what I have said.”
‘T shan’t go to school,” said I.
<* She looked astonished at my boldness,
but replied firmly:
"Certainly you will Alfred ! I com
mand you.”
"I will not," said I.
One of the two things you must do,
Alfred—either go to sehotd -this minute
or 1 will lock yon up in your room and
keep you t ere until yoapromise implic
it obedience to my wishes in the future."
"I dare you t > do it said 1; you can’t
get me up stairs ”
“Alfred choose now,” said my mother
who laid her hand upon my arm. She
tri mined violently and was deadly pale.
"If you touch me 1 ivill kick you,” said
1 in a fearful rage. God knows 1 knew
not what I said !
"Will you go, Alfred!”
"No!” I replied, but I quailed beneath
her eyes.
"Then follow me," said she as she
grasped my arm firmly. 1 raised my
toot—“Oh my son hear me” —1 raised
my loot and kieked her—my sainted
mothei. llow my head reels as the tor
rent of memory rushes over me ! My
mother made a few steps and leaned u
gainst the wall She did not look at
me, I saw her Is art heat against her
breast, 'O Heavenly Father!' she Cried,
forgive liitn-he knows not what lie dees!
TANARUS! e gardener just then passing the door I
seeing t. y mother was pale and almost
unable to support herself came in.
'Take this boy up stairs and lock him
in his room,' and turned off from me. It
was a look of agony, mingled with the
•mist intense lore; it was the unuttera
ble pang fri m a heart that was broken.
In a moment I found myself a priso
ner in my own room. I thought for a
moment I would fling mvself from the
open window, but 1 felt that I was a
p aid to die. 1 was not penitent At
times my heart was subdued, but my
stubbornness rose in an instant, and
bade me not yield yet. The pale face of
my mother haunted me. I flung myself
<oi my bet’ and fell asleep. Just at twi
light I heard a footstep approach my
■door. It was my sister.
“What Bhall I tell mothor for you?” she
said.
"Nothing” I icplicd.
"0, Alfred, for *my sake and for all |
<>ur sakes. say that you are sorry. She ;
hmgs to forgive you.
1 would not answer. I heard her l
footsteps slowly retreating, and again !
flung myself on the bed to pass a wretcls
ed and tearful night.
Another footstep slower, and more
feeble than my sister’s distuibed mo.
“Alfred, my son shall I come in ?” she
a-ked.
I cannot tell what influence opera- j
ting at that moment made me speak ad '
viser to my feelings. The gentle voice |
of my rnoiher that thrilled me melted
the ice from my heart, and I longed to ;
throw myself upon her neck but I did j
not. My words gave the lie to my heart
when 1 said 1 was not sorry. I heard
her withdraw I heard her groan. I
longed to call her back but 1 did not.
1 was awakened from au uneasy slum- \
her by hearing my name called loudly,
»nd my sister stood at my bedside.
■Get up, Alfred. Don’t wait amin-i
utc. Get np and come with me. Moth
er is dying. i
l thought I was yet dreaming, but I j
got up melancholy and followed tny sis
ter, On the bed pale as marble, lay my
mother, she had not undressed : She had
thrown herself upon the bed to rest and
rising to go again to me she waS seized
w ith palpitation of the heart, and borne
tu her room.
I cannot tel! you ray agony as I look
ed upon her—my remorse mas ten fuld
nnne bitter from the thought that she
would never know it, I belies ed myselt
her murderer. I fell on the bed beside
v_., ]i- , u ld not weep. Mvheart burned
within my bosom, my brain wan*on fire.
My sister threw her arms around me and
wept in silence. Suddenly we saw a
motion of mother’s hand; her eyes un
closed. She. had recovered her con'
sciousness, but not her speech. She
i looked at me and moved her 1 ps. 1
! could not understand her words.
I ‘Mother 1 mother 1 I shrieked say on
j ly that jou forgive mo ’
! She could not say it with her lips, but
her hand pressed mine. She smiled up
ion me, and lifted her thin white hands;
she clasped my owu within and cast her
; eyes upward. She moved her lips in
i prayer and thns she died. I remained
kneeling beside her that dear form till
my sister removed me. The joy of my
youth had left me forever.
Hoys who spurn a mother’s council
who are ashamed to own they are wrong
who think it inanly to resist her authori
ty or refuse to yield to her influence, be
ware! Lay not tip for yourselves bitter
memories for fmuie years.
The Southern People and the ‘‘Sit
nation”—a Mystery Explained.
Mr. Forney and other tourists of bis
class who came South, are greatly 6ur-j
prised and take it as a grivancc against
“loyalty,” thQt they do not find the peo
ple every where "smiling as a basket of
chips,” exuberant with love for the gov
ernment and rtinning over with cordi
ality and attentions to themselves. Per
haps the absence of these exhibitions is
all wrong but as Simon Snggs would
suy, it is at least "true to human natar,’
and as we maintain, inimical to nothing
in the government or elsewhere that is
right.
The position of our people is humor
ously but faithfullp illustrated by Don
Pyatt in one of hjs recent letters from an j
board a Potojr.ac steamer, to the Cincin
nati “Commercial,” a republican journal.
It comes Irom a Northern mao and we
hope Northern tourists will read it : it
may explain some things not fully un
derstood, by them at least. The writer
says:'
We coinplain that, these Southern pen- j.
pie do not accept the situation and look
the inevitable in the face. Are we' not j
guilty of the same error? The differou
ces of nationality led to a bloody war,
in w hich we laid waste wide fields, burn j
ed the homesteads and killed the best I
beloved and yet propose by a few crude
statutes to wipe out the deadly antago- ■
nisui and make the people so punished a!
patriotic peacelu! loving body of citi
zens.
Had vve attempted this in good faith,
we would yet be fighting the inevitable;
but feeling the impossibility of such a
result we have in fact used our power to
ourselves. Our so called re- ;
construction acts serve Now England
and not the South. The net pm port and
upshot of the bu-iness is to have a body
of ii en in Congress from the Southern
States wli i r present th: monied in
terest of Yankeedom We call them
carpet baggers. 1 met one at the open
ing of the holidays last winter, carpet
bag in hand making for the depot.
“Whither bound?” 1 cried.
“Home for a few days.”
“What, going South?'’
“Devil a bit. lam making for Cun-
I neclicut, to see my family.”
He d.d not call the land of his con
stituents home. Os course not; nor does
he consider the interest of his political
locality, but votes steadily with the
manufacturing capital of his old home.
: "Ala, make Hob ’have hisself ; every
timel bit him with the hammer he hol
lers ”
I had sitting near me a full stomacb
|ed heavy jawed specimen of Old Vir
ginia. lie' was reading a Richmond pa
| per, and broke into- a hearty laugh. 11c
thought the matter that contained the
i laughter to ke. p to himself so, looking
I ovei his gold rimmed spectacles at me,
his nearest neighbor he said:
"Did you read that? Now, I say that's
' d—d good.”
As he pointed to an extract of one of
myletteisof course I heartily concur
red in his approbation. Hut to rave
my conscience I said that it was from
lone of those paid correspondents that
■ hang about Washington and write sen
| tiinerital stuff.
“A mangy set of curs, I expect,” was
j his complimentary response, “hut that
1 feller puts it in about right this time.—
These d—d Yankees are running the
1 government to bell on a down grade
without brakes.”
“Don’t you think yon are to blamo for
a good deal of this?”
“What the devil can wc do, say?”
“Accept the situation. Recognize the
negro as a citizen. Go on quietly under
the law, and try to create a material
| prosperity instead of fighting over politi
cal differences-”
My friend removed his spectacles in
evident wrath; his brows corrugated, and
ihe crumpled the journal he had been
reading into a ball, as if to cast it at
me, and then roared:
“Look here stranger what yon say is
like kicking a man when lie’s down. W e
fought a fair fight, and when we were
whipped we owned up like men, and all
that we’ve go is to be anchised our

Self->lmlc - A Glance at the Success

i The New York correspondent of the
| Cincinnati Gazette writes :
! It is a curious fact that nearly all the
successful newspaper men in New York
sre what may properly be called “self
made’ Henry R. Raymond who made the
Times, and is in the front rank of jour
nalists, worked himself np from the low
est round of the ladder. In 1843, he
wrote letters for the’Cincinnati Chronicle
: for which he received two dollars each.
[ He made a living at that time chiefly by
j corresponding for out of town papers, j
The Times would now sell for $3,250,000 ;
and Raymond is still at its head.
Horace Grecly started the Tribune,
without eopltal. It is now one of the
most valuable pieces of newspaper prop-[
city here, and Greely is still at its head j
The Trbune association have I under
stand, declared a dividend of 30 per cent !
Its shares are worth SIO,OOO, the par
value of which was SI,OOO.
The Herald was started by Jas. Gnr !
don Bennett, bis capital being brains J
ami industry. Bennett is now worth j
millions, and his paper yields a clear
profit of $400,000 per annum.
Mavton Marble took the World when
it was an experiment. lie had no moil
ey; the paper was not paying, but he
was aided by capitalists. He built up
the paper and made it profitable and is
now sole proprietor. It yields a hand
some animal income.
Charles A. Dana was for several years
managing editor of the Tribune. lie
was subsequently editor of the Chicago
i Republican but did not succeed. lie
j came I ack to New Y uk and in c:< pipany
; with others bought the Sun which under
! his management, is already a great suc
cess. The circulation of the Sun on the
first of January 18119, was 31,000.. It is
| now 52,000, 'Aid growing rapidly. The
| Sun is a two cent paper. The profits
on the circulation arc very small of
| course but i| gets plenty ot advertising
at 25 to 50 cents per line. The New
j York people advertise liberally and pay
; big prices. Hence, the Sun which could,
not bj published in* Cincinnati is here
! very profitable. Business men believe
in advertising and to this in large part
is due the txtrordinary growth of the
| city.
•The Messrs. Brooks, of the’Express,
are also self-made men. I believe they
started the Express, aud are still man
aging it. Ido not know who stnated
the Post; but W. C. Bryant, has been
identified with it if not from beginnings
at least for a great many years. His cap
ital was mrdc of brains. It is a very
profitable paper. It pays largely.—
Bonner, of the Ledger, is worthy of re
mark in this connection, although he
does not run a daily paper. He wcnl
| into the Ledger from the case, and now
i publishes one of the most profitable
weekly papers in the world, and compe

the Heavens, each and resting on either
ocean, shrewd, thoughtful tradesmen
would pay enormous suras to have their
names inscribed on this venitable ‘how

is rapidly ‘turned over,’ and thus it hap
pens that they who advertise most sell

been found by fanners that they buy
the cheapest goods from thosejwho ad

A BEAUTIFUL CUSTOM.
I In the Mountains of.Tyrol, it is the
custom of the women and children to
| corno out when it is lied time, and sing
national songs until they hear their bus
; bands, fathers, and brothers answer
, them from the hills on their return homo.
On the shores of.the Adriatc such a cus
tom prevails. There the wives of the
. fishermen come down about sunset and
sing a melody. After singing the'first
stanza they listen awhile for the answer
ing strain from off the water, and con
-1 tiline to sing and listen till the well
known vo cos come borne on the tide,
tilling that the loved ones are almost
home. Ht.w sweet (o the weary fisher
man, aB the shodows gather round him,
must be the song of the |loved ones at
home, who sing to cheer him, and how
they strengthen the bonds tliat bind to
gether humble dwellers by the sea!
Truly it is among the lowly iri the world
that we find some if the most beautiful
customs in practice. —Banner of Liberty.

A Mormon graveyard is the most mel

has seventeen children buried in one

of divine service and at the close of the \
same to stare at the ladies as they enter j
and leave the - church, and to make gen j
