An old Friend Gone. From the Omalm flernhl. Charles W. Sanders is dead. I >on’t know him? Nonsense! Sunders Ims made you weep, he has made you laugh, he lias helped to knock f»ic ideas into that stupid head of yours. It is base ingratitude to say that you do not kuow Sanders. Think back a little. There w as the first, and the second, and the third, and the fourth, and the fifth readers, and they took you from the time you were six till you were sixteen to get through them, and Sanders' name was at the head of every page. How would one have known any thing about the lmy who saved the dykes of Holland, or the little match girl, or the had hoy who would not give his sister a drink of cold water on the night before she passed over the silent river, or the industrious lmy who picked red raspberries and took up the mortgage on his widowed mothci house, if it had not been for Sanders? H&w few would he able to repeat, “Sister, thou wast mild and lovely, if it bad not been for this same bene factor, or which of you all could have told anything sensible or rythmatical about the "Battle ot Blenheim,” or “Thebreaking waves dashed high,’ etc., but for Sauders ? “The rose had been washed, just washed iu a shower, which Mary to Anua conveyed,Sanders told us—with the assistance of Cowpcr. And did Sanders hint that it was the slower that conveyed Marv to Anna, consid ered from a grammatical standpoint ? He did not. lie showed himself a man that could be trusted, lie bad ideas, too, about the functions of the imagination. He thought the imagin atiou should be awakened. M bat, therefore, did lie do? 1’rint a thing 'like Hawthorne’s “Snow Maiden,” or some sweet fantasia of Ilans Anderson? Not»t all. He' printed stories in which.violcts converse fluently with onts and grasshoppers were entertain ed by humming birds. He meant to give milk to babes. There were those select stunners of the fifth reader — “jewels five words long, which on the stretched forefinger of all time glitter forever.” There were words that it was a positive gymnastic exercise to pronounce, and which were looked upon with such awe that they were carefully avoided during the remain der of life. There were moral senti ments so high that even a ( liautau- quan could not object to them, and general directions for climbing the hill of science, and the rungs of the ladder of fame, that have been indelib ly stamped ujHm the memory. And Sanders is dead—that guide, philosopher and friend. What if he made hot tears flow over his olistinate spelling pages and caused impatient blood to surge to the head on dread examination days? It is all forgiven and forgotten. lie was a close com panion and a safe one for many years. His methods arc obsolete now, and the schools have learned a trick or two since then, hut he was the first to venture to entertain while lie in-lruct- ed, and a great debt of gruti ude is due him.
