SHE ALWAYS BEADS RODE HAPPY
In an old churchyard stood a SWIM,
Weather-marked and stained,
The band of Time had crumbled it, -
So only pert remained,
Under the one side I 0014k1 Put
"In memory of our mother!"
An epitaph which spoke of "home"
Was ctilseled on the other!'
I'd gazed on monuments of . Lre,
High towering to the dries;
• I'd seerithe sculptured marble stone
Where a great kero lies;
Out by this epitaph I paused,
And mad it o'er and o'er. ;
For I had never seen inscribed
Such words as these before.
`She always made home happy:" What
A noble record left;
A legacy of memory sweet
To those she left bereft;
And what a testimony given
By those who knew her best,
Engraven on this plain, rude stole
That Marked their mother's rest.
It was an humble resting plitoe.
I know that they were poor,
But they had seen their mother sink
And patiently endure ;
They had marked her cheerful spirit
When bearing, one by one,
Her many burdens up the hill,
Till all her work was done.
So when was stilled her weary head
Folded her hands so white,
And site was carried from the home
Ade always made so bright,
Her children raised a monument
That money mull not
As witness of a noble life
Whose record is on high.
A noble We; but written not
In any book of fame;
Among the list of noted ones
None ever saw her name
For only her household knew
The victories she had won—
And none but they could testify
How well her work was done.
WARREN BELL'S LESSON
Few reflections are more bitter than
those which come to a heart not destitute
of feeling, after an unkind word to a lov
ing parent. "Ihydor tily father and thy
mother, that thy days may be long upon
the land whieh the Lord thy God giveth
thee.", Woe is sure to come to him who
disregards God's holy commandment.
It is common to meet with those who,
while acknowledging, perhaps to their
own hearts, the love they bear their pa.
rents, outwardly treat them with indiffer
ence, or open disrespect. This is often the
case with younemen who are forming im
proper assaCiations. An idea seems to
prevail with them that a show of affection
is girlish, effeminate. This is a great mis
take, and one which muses much grief.
In illustration I recall a rembilscence.
A number of years since, f I lived in a
pretty country v il lage, so bray and quiet
as to cause wonder that anything like grief
or unkindness could thrive there. Among
my companions was one named Warren
Bell, an unsteady, l mischief loving lad, but
it generous one; a leader in all sports, and
a 'general favorite. He was, at the time of
which I write, about seventeen years old.
I know now that he dearly loved his
widowed mother, bat a
scarcely . nave thought so, judging from
his manner towards her. The widow krv
ed ler only son as none but a mother can
love; 'she we gentle and kind to him, and
was a good Christian woman. Bat to
Warren, her tears, and counsels and ex
ortatiOns, as she saw him slowly drifting
astray, were distasteful, and he did not
mind tabu; her so. As to consulting her
wishes in anything, or obeying any, com
mandment of hers that did not coincide
with his feelings, he seemingly never
dreamed of such a thing.
~•F'`or several days I had noticed, in my
vaaxs, that Warren had' preserved especial
coldness, which often became downright
disrespect, towards his mother, on account
of her rebuke for some mitspleplempr. He
probably thought he was old enough to be
his own master, and did not reflect that
such; conduct proved the contrary. It
was winter; the pond-was in prime order
for skating, and I called for Warren to
join me in the• pleasure,
Mu', Deli about leaving home for a
a short tern', to visit a sister, who was
lying:ill,. leaving the house in charge of
Warren. When I came in, she was say
ing, in cheerful way, but with a heavy
heart, r know:
"Warren, Warren, don't be so unkind.
* Will not see you for several days, per
haps,"
"The better luck," answered tie un
dutiful son, taking down his skates; "I
will have a little quiet till you come
back."
!The wound was deep, but with a moth
er's,jove she bid it; and as we were ready
to start, 84 said; "Good-bye, Warren,"
and made a motion as if to kiss NM,
He looked at her as if surprised, then
said; "Don't; be silly, mother. Do you
take me for i baby?"
It was some more than common yearn
ing for her boy's love, perhaps that urged
her to say, with tears in her eyes:
"Will you not kiss your mother good
bye, Warren?"
Warren was fixing a st4lp, When he
he had fl u bih e d, he said: "Come, Hal,
let's be offs" 1 ; and he moved towards the
door.
"You might never see me agai n , w ar .
Fen," said the widow, in sadness.
"That," said Warren, working himself ,
into impatience, "would be too good to be
true;" and pushing me out, he slammed
* door after him.
As I passed thu lyiutifiir I glanpe4 in, I

"I wish I had. But it's all over now.
I will make it' all right when she comes
back."
We had reached the gate. • "Won't you
come in?" he said. "Good night, then."
As I exchanged "good night" with him,.
I held his hand for a moment, with a feel
ing of pity for him. I saw that even now
he was rendered unhappy by the words he
had so lately spoken to his mother.
Another hour later I was told that some
one was at thii dolitto see me, but would
not come in. Wo dering who it could be,
I repaired to the door. It proved to be a
ehool-mate, pale with excitement.
"Have you heard the news ?". he ex
claimed, as he saw me. "There has been
an accident to the afternoon express, and
Mrs. Bell is among the killed!"
I caught my breath, the horror of the
last meeting of mother and son being
fresh in my mind.
"Mrs. Bell! Are you sure there is no
mistake ?"
"It is true—and Col. James and Robert
Renshaw, and a number of others from

about it is, they are about to bring the

What if he should hear it while you hesi
tate. Be quick."
"No, no; I cannot."
"You must, so go. I must hurry to the
station."
He hurried off, and, my mind all in a
strange whirl, I walked over to my friend.
As I stood beside him, I could not realize
the dreadful truth that he wax motherless.
"Come in, Hall," he said cordially. "I
am glad you came over : lam very lonely;
and I declare," be oontinued, smiling, "it
seems to me the people must think so, too.
They look and speak so kindly as they

How should I ten him that it was pity
for him as an orphan that ,made their
words so kind and gentle ?
"Have you heard the news ?" I ventur
ed, in a kind of desperation,.
"News! what news?"
"About the railroad accident this after
noon."
"They are growing common now," he
answered, with a strange light in his eyes,
as if he were tbiekingpf the possibility of
accident to one in whom he had interest.
"That does not make the loss of life any
less fearfuL"
"Were there so many killed?" he in
quired, innocently.
"What train did your mother take,
Warren?" I said, after a pane, trying to
make my eyes speak an inkling of the
truth,
He knew all, then, for he grew very
pale.
"You know, as well as I do," be ex
claimed hoarsely, "that it was the late ex
press."
"That train was wrecked," I said, and
would have continued, but he fell at my
feet. He looked up imploringly:
"Don't—please don't tell me that—that
mother is dead." What a face it was test
was lifted to mine—painted with an inien
--"w «s 'snbellef, horror and grief] Alas,
he read imam
and my tears. Then he broke out pas
sionately:
"A few hours ago, she begged me to kiss
her, and I refused! A few hours ago, I
told her it would be too good to be true!
Oh, mother, mother, Khalil never be able
to hear you say I am forgiven?"
The mother's mangled and lifeless body
was brought to the house. We will not
attempt to describe the harrowing scene as
Warren threw himself in passionate grief
on her breast, 'begging piteously for some
token of rechgnition and forgiveness ; but
all in vain, ' Oh, who can weigh the pain
his unfilial words had caused to a loving
mother's heart, as well as the remorse en
tailed for a life-time on the careless son ?
It was a fearful lesson to Warren Bell.
He would have given his life if he could
have had his mother back again, just long
enough to put his anns,about her neck,
and say, "Mother, forgive my cruel !rinds;
for I do love you."
As I saw him standing by his mother's
open grave, noticed his pale face and his
eyes sunken with weeping, and saw the
quivering lips and gasping sobs which he
in vain tried to check, as he looked at the
cold still form of his mother for the last
time, I-thought of his words to her { "Tost
good to be true," and would not, were it
possible, have changed places with him

"Dear, dear l no toast ; eggs boiled as
hard as brickbats, and the coffee stone
cold."
And Mr. Peters , rose from the table in
a temper by no means amiable, and rang
the bell violently. There was no answer.
He rang again, a third, a fourth time, and
still no answer ! Out of all patience, he
went to the door and 'called—"Maria !
Maria I"
d. slight, pretty little woman, dressed in
a sailed, tumbled wrapper, with hair in a
state of direful confusion, answered his
summons. She had one of those bright
faces which nature - intended should be
decked with continual smiles ; but now,
all its roses in bloom, it was drawn to its
full length, and the large blue eyes had a
serious, or rather doleful expression, total
ly at variance with its usual joyous look.
Her voice, too, had lost its melodious,
ringing sound, and was subdued to a dis
mal whine.
"What is it, Joseph ?"
"Where's Bridget?"
"Gone out for me. I want more white
ribbon for my ascension robe."
Mr. Peters said a very naughty word
and then continued : "Cold coffee, hard
eggs, breakfast not lit to eat."
"I wish," whined his wife, "you would
take less note of temporal matters and turn
your attention to the great end of life:" '
"Hang it all, madam, I like to enjoy
my life while Ido have it. Here was I,

"I'm stirs I don't know."
"Are they going to setool to-day ?"
"No, dear Joseph."
"For what reason, madam ?"
"My dear, their teacher has given up
the school, and is turning his mind to
more exalted objects. Oh ! Joseph, tarn
now, while there's time. You still have a
week for preparation and repentance !"
"Repentance ! Well, when I take up
the subject, it will take more than a week
to put it through."
And Mr. Peters put on his coat and took
up his hat.
"Joseph," said his wife, "you need not
send home any dinner. I shall be out, and
I'll take the boys over to their uncle's to
dinner."
Joe made no answer unless the violently
emphatic manner in which he closed the
door was one. Muttering with anger, he
strode into a restaurant to make a break

friends, Fred Somers, who looked up as he
heard Joe's order.

to do; I know your mind is entirely en
grossed with your ascension, and I wish to
spare you the care of the house. Suppose
you invite Sarah here to-morrow to stop a
week 1"
"What !"
"Then I can arrange our matrimonial
preparations in the evening, while you are
at the lecture."
"What !"
"And you can leave the house in her
charge all day. That will give you plenty
of time to go out, and she can learn the

"And, any ' dear, . one little favor. It

Stay at home one or two days, and show
her around, where you keep things, and
so on, so that she won't have any trouble
in keeping order after you go. You will
do this to oblige me, won't you ?"
Mrs. Peters, for an answer, rolled up
the ascension robe into a ball and fired it
at Joe. The cotton, scissors, work-basket
and table cloth followed each other in
rapid succession, and he was unable to
fly. Then Maria's rage found vent in
words.
"So ! you are going to marry Sarah !
That's the reason, you whistled so nice
when you came in ! But you shan't mar
ry her, sir ! You shan't have that grati
fication ! I will stay if it is only to spite
you! I won't go ! I tell you, Mr. Peters,
that I won't go !"
"But, my dear, you must go, if you are

"I won't go !"
"Bat consider, my dear."
"I won't go !"
"But what will Sarah Ingraham think
of it?"
"Sarah ! Don't dare to mention Sarah
to me again I am fairly
choking !" and the little woman l threw
herself into a chair, in a lit of hysterics.
Next morning Mr. Peters met Fred in
the street.
"Well, old boy, how goes it ?"
"Fred,!" was the reply, "I am the hap
piest man in the world ! I have regained
my wife, and domestic peace, and got rid
of a busy, tattling old maid, who under
pretence of loving my wife, was everlast
ing interfering in all our household ar
rangements."
"Then Mrs. Peters will not ascend, will
she ?"
"If Sarah is to be my second wife and
stepmother to my children; Dirs. Peters
has concluded that, on the whole, she
won't go !"
PROGRESS OP immix IN NEVADA.
The Chinese inhabitants of Virginia City,
Nevada, on the 6th of June dedicated their
new temple, lately erected and fitted up.
They began the work about 4 o'clock in
the morning, when they had a feast of
roast hog and other fat things, sweet
meats, cakes, &e., interspersefl with sing
ing, kAfeling, bowing and praying, with
the firing of a brass howitzer, borrowed
for the occasion, the explosion of bombs
wrapped about with bamboo splits, and an
immense consumption of fire crackers.
Lt noon they took a fresh start and had
•
The temple is a frame building, fronting
the east, and cost about $BOO, The inte
rior is fitted up with i♦ profusion of tinsel
ornaments, at a cost, probably, of $3OO
more for the whole of the decorations. In
the west end of the temple stands the high
altar, and seated upon it are three crowned
and bearded rds or kings, Two of these
wooden gods have long beards, and mous
taches, while the beard of the third is of
the sailor cut. All threeare seated behind
a sort of curtain, hanging down from a
canopy, and looped aside that they may
plainly be seen by their worshippers, In
front of the altar is a table, upon which at
noon was exhibited a fhU grown bog, roast
ed to a turn, with cakes, sweetmeats, &c.
Before the altar a number of colored can
dles were burning, also dishes• in which
perfumed woods were 'mouldering. Be
hind this table was a narrow sort of altar,
supporting large candlesticks adorned with
artificial flowers, colored papers and pea
cock feathers. In front of this came an
other table filled with eatables and with
small candles and dishes containing burn
ing sandal wood, &c, The temple was
crowded to setrocation, and even standing
room could not be found for more than
three-fourths of those wishing to enter.
Some of the women planted ladders against
the sides of the temple, and, clambering
up them, managed to Peep intothe win
dows and tops of the doors, The priests,
who came to the temple in procession about
noon, dressed in their long blue robes, pre
sented quite an imposing appearance. The
ceremonies inside, as near as we could see,
consisted in blooming cer t ain robes with
which the gods were clothed, blesidng the
wine and food before the people, and in
many bows and genuflections,
All this tints an accompaniment to the
Opting was played on a squeaking two
stringed fiddle, with the occasional inter
ference of some "baser" sounding instru
ment,- At length word was passed to the
crowd outside that the ceremonies inside
were concluded, when bombs were explo:.
ded, firecrackers touched off, and for half
an holy there was a grand gunpowder ju
bilee, in the midst of which the priests and
big guns of the tribe marched out in
double file and went their l'faYal Many
worshippers lingered within and about the
temple, and even at the distance of three
or four hSdreii yards the &Mfal were to
be seen mounted upon the rooft of houses
drinking tea or wine toward the spot where
were enshrined their gods. Even up to a
late hour last night there was a great
squealing of hogs in the direction of Chi
natown, and the chances are that all the
ceremonies are not yet qyer, The Celes

• The usually quiet little village of Mid
dletown, was lately thrown. into a painful
fever of excitement by an awful s
trophe which occurred to the band lately
attached to James Robinson a Co's circus
and animal show, and led by Pro. M. C.
Sexton. '
Upon starting out from Chicieneti for
the season, the management determined
to produce something novel in the way of
a band chariot, and conceived the idea of
mounting the band upon the colossal den
of performing Numidian lions, and which
would form one of the principal and most
imposing features of the show.
Although repeatedly warned by Profes
sor Sexton-that he deemed the cage insecure
and dangerous in the extreme, the mana
gers still persisted in compelling the band
to ride upon it. (hr the fatal morning of
the 12th the band took their places, and
the procession couiiuenced to move, amid
the shouts of the multitude of rustics who
had assembled to witness the grand pa
geant, and hear the enlivening strains of
music. Not a thought of danger was en
tertained by any one, that the awful ca
tastrophe was about to occur.
As the driver endeavored to make a
turn in the streets, the leaders became
entangled and threw the entire team into
confusion, and he lost control of them,
add becoming frightened they broke into
a violent run.—Upon the opposite side of
the street the fore wheel of the cage came
in contact with a large rock with such force
as to ortu.O \ the braoes and stanchions
which sup Poked the roof to give away,
thereby precipitating the entire band into
the awful pit below.
For an instant the vast crowd was para
lyzed with fear, but for a moment only,
and then arose such a shriek of agony as
was never heard before, The awful groans
of terror and agony which arose from the
poor victims who were being torn, lacera
ted by the frightful monsters below, were
heart-rending and sickening to a terrible
degrie. Every moment some one of the
band would extricate himself from the
debris and leap over the sides of the cage
to the ground with a wild spring, and
faint away upon striking the earth, so
great was their terror. But human nature
could not stand and see 'men literally de
voured before their very eyes, for there
were willing hearts and strong arms ready
to render every assistance necessary to res
,l cue the unfortunate victims of this shock
ing calamity.
• A hartheare store which happened to
stand opsosite was invaded by the request
of the noble hearted proprietor, and pitch
, forks, crowbars, and long bars of iron,
and in fact every available weapon was
brought into reqniistion. The side door
of the cage were quickly torn from their
fastenings, and then a horrible sight was
preseßtid to view. Mingled among the
brilliant uniforms of the poor unfortunates
lay legs, and arms, torn from their sockets,
and half devoured, while the savage brutes
glared ferociously with their sickly, green
colored eyes upon the petrified crowd .
Professor Charles White arrived at t.t.r;
moment, and gave nrilers in regard to ex
tricating the ilead and wounded, he VII
knowing it 'would be a difficult and danger}
ous undertaking to remove them from_khe
infuriated monsters.
Stationing men with forks and bars
every available point, he sprang fearlessly
into the den amid the savage Ipcuu,
and conirneeeed mishit/ the wounded and
passing them upon the outside to their
friends. He had succeeded in removing
the wounded, and proceeded to gather up
the remains of the lifeless, when the mam
moth lion, known to showmen as Old Ne
ro, sprang with a frightful roar urn his
keeper, fastening his.teeth Vend claws in
him, in his neck and alioulders, lacerating
rum u; pir pumas...
OWE
White made three herculean efforts tq
shake the monster off, but without
and gave ornery to fire upon him,'
The contents of four of Colt's navies
were immediately poured into the" Carcass
of the ferocious animal, and he fell dead ;
and the brave little man, notwithstanding
the fearful manner in which he was woun
ed, never left the cage until every vestige
of the dead was carefully gathered togeth
er and placed upon a sheet, preparatory,
for burial, It was found that three of the
ten who mounted the cage a short time
before were killed outright, and four
others terribly lacerated. The names of
the killed are August Schoer, Conrad
?reels, and Charles Greiner. Coffins were
procured, and immediate burial determ
ined upon, as the bodies were so fright
fully torn and lacerated as to be unrecog
nizable to their most intimate friends : It
was a prelanchely day for Middletown, and
sadder day for the 'friends and compan
ions of the deceased,
Of all that vast multitude who started
out in the morning with the anticipations
of a glad holiday, few left for their homes
with dry eyes after the triple funeral, fo
the entire community followed the remain..
to the quiet cemetery. At midnight, thc
ci;reass of the slain beast was .quietly
buried on the lot where was intended to
be given the exhibition, but was never ac
complished. There is a terrible responsi
bility resting upon some one, which should
be thoroughly investigated, and the guil
ty parties brought to a quick and speedy
punishment. The lions are the same ones
which nearly cost Prof. Charles White
dip fife two years ago, while traveling
with Thayer dr Noyes' party, and were
known to be a very dangerous cage of ani
mals.
The Prof. Charles White alltded to in
the above article is a palthnorean, and
has 'a family residing there. He left the
city but a few weeks ago to commence an
'engagement with Robinson's circus. He
was badly wounded in an encounter with
a lion last summer, and had not entirely
recovered from it when he Salted upon
his present tour, Progenitor White is a man
small in stature, but of powerful muscu
lar development, and is regarded as one of
theimetdaring and skillful performers in
the profession.--Be. Lends Reyna:item.
