Henry Clay, that great man, the
pride and honor of his country al
ways expressed feelings of profound
affection iuid veneration for his
mother. Habitual correspondence
aud enduring affection subsisted lye-
tween them to the last hour of life.
Mr. Clay over spoke of her ns a
model of maternal character and fe
male excellence, and it is said tlrnt
he never met liis constituents in
"Woodland county, after her death,
without some allusion to her, which
deeply affected both him and his
audience. And nearly the hist words
uttered Uy this great statesman,
when ho come to die, were, “Moth
er, mother, mother.” It is natural
for us to feel that she must have
been a good mother, that was loved
aud so dutifully served by such a
boy, and that neither could have
been wanting in rare virtues.
Benjamin Franklin was accustom
ed to refer to his mother in the ten-
derest tone of filial affection. Hia
respect and affection for her v
maintained among other ways,
frequent presents, that contributed
to her comfort and solacq in her ad
vancing year®. In one of his letters
to her, for example, he scuds her a
moidorr, a gold piece of the value of
six dollars, “the chaise hire,” said,
“that you may ride warm to meet
ings during the winter.” In anoth
er, ho gives her an account of the
growth and improvement of liis son
and daughter—topics which as he
well understood, are ever as dear, to
tho grandmother ns to the tooth
er, * ■' ] ? : } .
Tiiomas Gray, author of “Jilegy
in o Country Churchyard, utu most
assiduous in his attentions
his mother while she
lived, and, after her death, he cher
ished lier memory with saered sor
row. Mr. Jfakon informs us that
Gray seldom mentioned his mother
without a sigh. The inscription
which he pluced over her remains
speaks of her as “the carful, tender
mother of many children, one of
whom alone had the misfortune to
supive her,” How touching is this
brief tribute of grateful love! Vol
umes of eulogy could uot increase
our admjratioa of the gentle be
ing to whom it was paid—her pa
tient devotion, her meek endurance.
Wherever the name and genius of
Gray are kuown, there shail also his
mother’s virtues ho told for a memo
rial of her. He was buried, accord
ing to his directions, by the side of
his mother, in the churchyard at
Stoke. After his death, her gowns
and wearing appeftrpl were found iu
a trunk in his apartment, just as
she had left them, jt qeemed as- if
he could never take the- resolution
to open it, iu order to ’ distribute
them to his female relations, to
whom, by liis will he bequeathed
them.
Anion Law vcuw always* spoke of
his mother iu the strongest terms
of veneration and love, and iu many
letters to his cliildren and grand-
childen ore found messages of affec
tionate regard for his mother, such
as could have emeoated only from a
heart overfiowjpg with filial gj-jdi-
tude. Her form bending over his
bed in silent prayer, at the hour of
twilight, when she was about leav
ing him lor the night, was among
the earliest and most cherished rec-
colleetions of his early years and his
childhood's home.
Sergeant S. Prentiss. From hi**
mother J/r. Prentiss inherited those
more gentle qualities that ever char
acterized his life—qualities that
shed over his eloquence such be
witching sweetness, and gave to his
social intercourse sod* an indiscrib-
ablc charm. A remarkably charac
teristic anecdote illustrates his filial
affection. When on a visit some
years ago, to the North, but after
hisreputationhadbecome widespread
a distinguished lady of Portland Me,
took paws to obtain an introduction,
bv visiting the steamboat in which
she learned he was tor take his de
parture in a few moments.
*1 have wrahU to sec/' said she
to Mr. Prentiss, “for my heart has

ulate the son on having su<
er/- .was his instant and hen:
dy. This is but one of the many
nstanecs in which the most distin
guished men of all ages have been
proud to refer to the culture of in
tellect, the promptings of virtue as
the aspirations of piety, and to the
iuflnence of the mother’s early train
ing.
Francis Morion. General Marion
was once a plodding young farmer,
and in no way distinguished as sn-
>erior to the young men of the ueigh-
xjrliood iu which he lived, except
for his devoted love and marked res
pect for his excellent mother, and
exemplary honor and truthfulness.
In these qualities lis was eminent
from early childhood, and they
marked his character through life.
We may remark, liis character
tlirough life. We way remark, in
this connection, that it is usual to
affect some degree of astonishment
when we read of men whose % after
fame presents a striking contrast to
the humility of their origin; yet we
must recollect that it is not ancestry
and splendid descent, but education
and circumstances, which form the
man. It is often a matter of sur
prise that distinguished men have
such iuferior children, and that a
great name is seldom perpetuated.
The secret of this is as evident: ^tho
mothers have been inferior—mere
ciphers in the scale of existence.
All the splendid advantages procur
ed by wealth and the father's position
cannot supply this ono deficiency in
the mother, who gives character*
the child.
Sam Houston’s mother was an ex
traordinary jronuih. She was dis
tinguished by a fall, rather matron
ly form, n tine carriage, aud an im
pressive aud dignified couutenanco.
She was gifted with intellectual
aud moral qualities which elevated
her, iu a still more striking manner,
above most of her sex. Her life was
in the 1 midst
of the wild scenes of the frontier set
tlers. Mrs. Houston was left with
tbe heavy burden of a large family.
She had six sons and three daugh
ters, but she was not the woman to
succumb to misfortune, and she
made ample provision, for one iu
her circumstances, for their future
care and education. To bring up a
large family of childen in a proi>er
manner, is under the most favorable
circumstances, a great work, and iu
this case it rises into sublimity; for
there is uo finer instance of heroism
than that of one parent especially a
mother laboring for that end alone.
The excellent woman, says Goethe,
is she whp if her husband dies,
bo a father to her children.

“Why didn’t you either leave that

the woman.
‘Yes, ma’am, I am! I say it’s a

A Powerful Magnet
Professor Smyth was lecturing in

in the conrse of his experiments he
introduced oije of Carrington's
most powerful magnets, with which
lie attracted a block of iron from a
distance of two feet
‘Can any of you conceive of a

turer demanded.
‘I ken,’ answered a voice from
the audience.
‘Not a natural terrestrial object, I

‘Yaas, sir’”
Tho professor had challenged the

Newspaper Borrower*.
Time: Saturday morning, eight
’clock. Scene: The breakfast-table,
a rap is heard at the door, and the
newspaper is for a few moments open
before the fire. “Come, John, it won't
do to dry it too long, for I see neighbor
Snooks is sending his son after it.”
Another rap at tbe door.
“Father wants to know if you will
just lend him tho newspaper five min
utes; if you ain't done with it he will
send it right back. lie only wants to
see if the brig Star has been heard
from, what onr Tom went in.”
“Tell your father the brig is not re
ported.”
Home he trips, and speedily lie re
turns; ;
“Mother wants to know who was
buried yesterday; can't you lend U to
her just two minutes?”
“Tell your mother that all the deaths
this week are Mr.—, and a child of
Mr.— ”
In a few momeuts auolher tap.
“Sister Susan wants to know if any
body is married this week, and Uncle
Josh wants to knew what the news is
from Virginia, and aunt Snooks wants
to know if there Is any more pretty
stories about that Jarvis woman; if
you can’t spare the paper, why can’t
you just writedown what there is, just
cause I don’t want to keep running
back aud forward so —”
Here my lad take this paper to
your father, aud aronnd to all your
uncles and aunts, and have it back,
whatever is left of it, next Saturday
morning at eight o’clock precisely
wheo you come to borrow the next.”
Ten applications on Saturday by
borrowers, all sent to neighbor Snooks,
with a particular caution to return it
there when done with it. Monday
morning a rap at the door, and the
boy with the paper is ushered in —
Mother says it is too much plague to
keep the paper all the week, people
keep coming artcr it so.”
True Words.
Every- town of any pretentious
wants n newspaper, and should bo
willing to snstain it. A uewspaj>er
c&nnot live without patronage, and
cannot thrive and be effective for
tho common good if tliat patronage
is stinted and given grudgingly.—
An editor may write up liis town every
week and extol it to the skies; he
may tell his readers at a distance of
the liberal enterprise of its citizens,
he may do all these things, but un
less his advertising columns show
tho business life of its merchants
and the tradesman, that papers
influence cannot be made available.
As we have said the advertising col
umns of a local paper is tho true in
dex ofo the business spirit of the
town. • J- vt fX. vs
With a good paper aud live aud
thrifty business men no town can
long remain in obscurity. It will
rise in spite of hard times and pros-
per even [ though all around may be
financial pressed.
