HUNTINGDON, PA
WREN I WAS YOUNG,
OR, WIIAT THE OLD WOMAN SAW ro urm
13EMED
One morning, as I chanced to pass
close by the garden gate,
An aged matron in the shade—
sat talking to her Tate.
The frost of age was on her brow,
and garrulous her tongue,
As she compared the doings now
with those when she was young
When I wee young, young gale were meek,
and looked round kinder shy,
And when they were compelled to speak,
they did so modestly ;
They staid at homo and did the work,
made Indian bread and wheaten,
And only went to Sabbath School,
and sometimes to night meeting.
Young children were obedient then,
and bed no saucy airs— •
They minded whet their mothers said,
and learned to say their p!ayers;
But now-a-days they know enough
• before they know their letters,
And young ones that can scarcely talk,
will contradict their betters.
Young misses now go flitting round,
and looking out fur beaux,
And scarcely one in ten is found
who makes or mends her Clothes.
When I was young, if a merchant failed,
lie shut up house and ball,
And never ventured out till night,
if he ventured out at all.
His wife sold all her China plate,
his boys came mine from college,
His gals they learned to cook and bake ;
and wash, and such like knowledge.
But now-a•days, when a merchant fails,
they say ho makes a penny ;
His wife don't have a gown the less,
and his daughters just as many;
He rises his horse, he drives his gig,
he drinks his choicest wine,
llis wife goes to the opera,
and he 118k8 folks to dine.
When I was young, crime was crime--
it had no other name—
And when 'twos proved against a man,
he had to beau• the blame ;
They called the man who stole, a "thief,"
and wasted no line feeling;
What's no„w called "petty larceny,"
in toy day was called "stealing."
They did tat make a reprobate
the theme of song and story,
As if the bloodier• was the deed
the brighter was his glory.
And %siren a murder 1%?,4 performed,
could they the murderer find,
They'd hang him as they would it crow—
a terror to his kind.
But now•a-days, it seems to me,
whenever blood is spilt,
The murderer has our sympathy
And when the law has proved a man
to be a second Cain,
A dozen jurors will be found
To bring him in insane.
THE PROMISE THAT WAS KEPT.
One evening four German students
at a university were enjoying them
selves in an upper room of a little ho
tel. They had four instruments, and
were employing themselves in making
music after the hard labors of the day.
There was a pause in thoiy music, but
no sooner had they ceased playing
than they heard an old man playing a
violin beneath their window in the
street. They went to the window and
looked out, watching him until he had
ceased playing. One of them threw
out a little piece of money, and said to
him, laughing: "Here, poor Peter,
this is all we have for you now; come
again some other time."
"Yes," said another, "core again in
a year from now."
"Then we will give you a little house
for a present," said the.third.
"Yes, in the middle of a garden,"
said the fourth.
The old man was struck with won
der at such a promise. His long white
hair shone brightly in the light of the
lanterns which hung over a neighbor
ing restaurant. He looked np to the
window and said, after a moment's re,
ilection : "Young people, aro you in
earnest in what you say to me ? I hope
you aro not making light of an old
man."
"Indeed, we are in earnest," replied
_Ernest, with excited voice; and his
three companions called upon God to
witness their seriousness,
"Parewell, then," replied the old
man ; "I take my leave of you. Ono
year from to-duy at this sumo hour,
expect mo to conic and play a tune be
neath this NVilidOW. Faro vcll j may
the Almighty One, whose name you
have called upon, bless you in your
kintlneEs,"
The, old man went oil' alter invoking
this blessing upon them. The stu
dents closed the window, I. 001( their• in
struments again in thmr hands, and
after playing three or fonr lively tones,
seemed to I)rget, all [lna had occurred.
Ernest said to them, however, alter
the space of half an hour: "You seem
to be very quiet. It can not be, tot•
have made a promise that I would give
something which I had not got."
What, promise?" answered one of
the light-hearted companions.
"The promise, of a house Rud a gar-
I '
."
A loud laugh was the response that
he met with, and the students separa
ted. They met again on the following
evening, and during their interview
Ernezt called to mind the promise of
the night before. They made light of
hint, and told him that ho was foolish
to pay any attention to it. Then said
he : "1 don't see where your eon
soiuueet; are, if you eau make a prom:
ise and break your word."
"flow can we fulfill a promise of that
kind ?" said Christopher. "Our pa
rents aro all poor, and have more than
they can coo to send us to the univer
sity. flow then can they help us to
buy a house and a garden for a foolish
old roan ? Good night, comrades, 1
wish you as pleasant d sleep as I shall
' have."
(44
N
But this kind of argument did not
affect Ernest much, for he could not
help thinking that ho was compelled
to keep his bargain. lle was the poor
est one of the group, for his mother
was a plain widow, and she made her
living by washing. The promiso that
he had made deeply affected him, and
he left the university for a week, so
that he might go home and tell his
mother the pledge he had made the
old musician. After he bad told her,
she replied : "Eleep it, my son; keep
it, if it cost your life."
"That is what I will try to do, moth.
Cr, and I hope I shall have your pray ,
ers."
Ernest returned- to the .university
and told his friends that they must
seriously think of buying the old man
a house and garden. lie went into a
neighboring village one day, and found
that he could get a neat little house
and garden for two thousand guldens.
That was a large sum .for those poor
students to think of paying,but through
the influence of Ernest the other three
became convinced that it was their
duty to keep their promise. The four
resolved that, in one year from the
time the pledge was made, the old man
should have his house and garden if it
was in their power to get them for
They must leave the university—a
sad proceeding for them. They came
to the conclusion to go through the
country, and give little concerts; for
really this appeared to be the only way
possible to gain any money. Even by
pursuing this course there appeared to
be a poor prospect to get a large sum.
Still they closed their books, and put
their instruments into little bags, and
set out on foot to give concerts, in the
villages through which they might
pass. Ernest before leaving, exacted
a premise of the man who owned the
house and lot Which he had looked at
that be would not sell it under six
months to anybody, and that if he
would promise to take it at the end of
that time he might have it, though the
money need not be paid under a year.
Week after week passed by and the
students slowly proceeded on their way.
Their expenses wore not heavy, but
their income was very small too. Nine
months and a half passed by, and still
they had but little above seven hun
dred guldens. It was a question with
them how the remaining thirteen hun
dred could be raised, They were
spending one day at a country town,
and a nobleman living in a large castle
a few miles distant was seeking musi
cians to attend the wedding of his
e g , ter, n . - marl-fara
three or four days. Fortunately
enough for the students, the nobleman
employed them for the occasion. The
marriage ceremony took place, and by
and by it was time for the music to
begin. The students had trained them,
selves very carefully for that evening,
and their selections were certainly of
a very high order. During the course
of the festivities it, was noticed that the
nobleman became very sad. His face
were a melancholy appearance, and
those who stood nearest to him sow
him weeping. What could bave caus
ed him to be melancholy-at such a
time as that ? One of the pieces those
musicians played was his mother's fa
vorite melody. She had often sung it
to him many years ago ; and he bad
not heard it since, until the students
played it. It was enough to make him
sorrowful, and it drew those students
to his heart in such a way that he
could not express his feelings. They
bad recalled to his mind a piece of mu
sic which he had never been able to
find in any music store, and which it
was now worth a fortune to hint to
hear.
I must now make my story short.
The nobleman kept the four students
in his castle two weeks, became ac
(painted with them very fully and
learned their object in leaving the uni
versity to give concerts. He supplied
them with three thousand guldens,
and told them that they Might have
the privilege of making drafts on him
at any time,
On the evening of the day when the .
old man promised to appear, he stood
below the window playing on his old
violin. He was true to his word and
expected the promise to he kept. The
young men went down to invite him
up and told bins all they had done.
'['hey showed him the deed for his
place and gave it to him. On the fol
lowing day he formally took possession
of it, and they supplied it with furni
ture and with groceries for house
keeping.
The young men felt that they were
amply repaid for their faithfulness to
their word by the gratitude and joy of
the old mail. Bat they were nut only
repaid in feelings; they Were more
than repaid even in money.
Fourteen years atter that time that
place was taken into their possession;
for the old man had died and bequeath
ed it to them in his will. That part
of the town rose suddenly in value.
Many things contributed to its increas
ed value which 1 will not enumerate.
It is enough to say, that in seventeen
years from the time the four students
gave the deed of that house and gar.
den to the old musician, the same
property which had cost two thousand
guidons way worth eighty thousand.
The students were not only repaid in
heart, but also in money. They had
kept their word and even to the poor
old man who had no power to compel
them to be true to it, was is pleasant
memory its long as they lived.--ilietho

Masonic Secrets.
An anecdote is related of a Master Ma
son well known to most of our readers,
noted, as he is, for many acts of chari
ty. He is withal a man of good pres
ence and a great favorite among the
Indies—so much so as to cause a de
gree,of jealousy on the part of his
worthy spouse. Ono evening, not
long since, a bundle came to his house
for him labelled "private." Of course
this was sufficient for female curiosity,
and therefore she indulged in an in
spection, . Horror of horrors ! Blank
ets, baby linen, &c., greeted her aston
ished vision, and dreams of two faini
lies floated through her bran-_
The huSband soon came in, and, af
ter tea, when the wife bad discovered
in his eye the treachery of his conduct,
as she supposed—ho took the bundle
and went out, but not alone, for the
jealous wife • was on his track. The
faithless husband little imagined that
she who supposed herself so foully
wronged was hovering after him. He
halted before a small tenement, which
he entered. Here she paused to hold
a council of lvar. What tactics to fol
low the was in doubt; but she at once
determined to storm the citadel, boldly
knocked, and brushing past the little
child who answered the summons,
she
stood in an instant before her husband,
the embodiment.of injured innocence.
Her feelings were about to find ex
pression, when the scene before her
caused her to pause. A pale and care
worn man shivering over the expiring
embers of a scanty fire, and a poor
woman on a sick bed,' a babe not old
enough for christening, and two little .
gills snugly stowed away on some
straw in a corner met her ferocious
gaze. She read the story at a glance,
and returned home with her husband
a better and wiser woman, satisfied
that she had discovered the great se
cret of Masonry.—Locke.
Loco on SHORT.—An anecdote worth
laughing over is told of a man who
had au infirmity as well as an appe
tite for fish. He was anxious to keep
up his character for honesty, even
while enjoying his favorite meal, and
while making a bill with his merchant,
as the story goes, and when his back
was turned, the honest buyer slipped
a codfish up under his coat-tail. But
the garment was too short to cover up
the theft and the merchant perceived
it.
"Now," said the customer, anxious
to improve all opportunities to call at
tention to his virtues. "Mr. Merchant,
I ar.e ed_with grant..rinal,
and have paid you up promptly and
honestly, haven't I `I"
"Oh, yes," answered the merchant,
"I make no eomplitint."
"Well," said the easterner. I always
insisted that honesty was the best pol
icy, and the best rube to live and die
by."
"That's so," replied the merchant.
And the customer turned to depart.
"Hold on friend," cried the mer
chant, "Speaking of honesty, I have a
bit of advice to give you. Whenever
you come to trade again, you had bet
ter wear a longer coat, or steal a shor
ter codfish." .
AN UNFORTUNATI.I STRANGER.—`Can
you tell mc,' said a stranger to a gen
tleman in a ball room, "who that lady
is near the second window—that very
plain looking lady ?"
"That is my sister, sir," replied the
person addressed, with a very formid
able look,
"No, no, I don't mean her," said the
unfortunate interrogator, mean that
ugly woman leaning against the.p,iann:
there's about as much expression in
her face as in a bowl of bonny clab
ber."
"That, sir, is my wife."
"No ; no," gasped the miserable
stranger the perspiration starting
from every porn. "Good gracious
wish I could make you understand
me ! I mean that blear-eyed object in
the pink silk, the one so awful homely.
I should be afraid she would splinter
"a looking•glass by looking into
There she is looking at us now,"
"That, sir," said the gentleman with
tierce calmness, "is my oldest daugh
ter."
The stranger darted from the room
and cleared the premises ,Gs though
he had been struck with a presenti
moat that a powder magazine was
going to explode in that room in less
that three seconde.
FOU,TVINk; TFj,LINCI.—One of our ex
changes is responsible for the following
story relative to this popular and per
nicious. vice : Not many evenings since
it is recorded that a sinner who has
escaped hanging for, to ! these many
years, was in company with several
young ladies. The subject, of fortune
falling Was introiNeed. Several of the

impeachment of having written to
Madam This and Madath That to furn

Instances were mentioned of some
very remarkable developments in a

"So far as I am personally concerned,l

to. I don't think any good conies of
those things. I had a friend who dres
sed himself in lady's clothes and called
upon a celebrated prophetess. Ho did
not believe she would discover the
guise, but ho heard what made him
exceedingly unhappy." Here the old
reprobate ceased. li lady much inter

"She told bim ho was to marry soon,

Too Little Farming.
We do not know that there is any
use in saying it, or that it will affect
the action and life of a single person,
yet we will say it—that of late years
there has been too little farming in our
country. The profession has not ad
vanced, either in extent or in estima
tion, at an equal rate with other kinds
of business. And probably the main
mason why it has not advanced more
is, that for some reason it has not boon
estimated highly enough to appear at
tractive. _Thousands of young. men
and women have left their ruriThoines
and employments, through the attrac.
tions, of some sort or of various sorts,
in the cities and towns; but very few
have gone from the latter to engage in
the employments of the field. Appren
ticeships, clerkships, domestic service,
factory work, mechanical trades, and
even common labor, appear more de,
sirable to many, than the quiet, health
thy, moderate labors of the field of
farm house.
There may be different modes of ao,
counting for this. The probability is,
that the most common reason for the
course is, the expectation of making
money faster and perhapsmore easily.
The labors of farming are less severe
than they formerly were. The com
pletion of the improvements that re
quired the heaviest labor, and the in,
troduction of mechanical implements,
for doing almost all kinds of work
have bad this result. And then farm
ing has been highly lucrative business.
for years past, and is destined, we
think, to continue so. Besides, it is ca
pable of being made more profitable by.
being better done. Add to this the
considerations of its independent char
acter, of its healthfulness, of the beau
ty always in view in its scenes, of the
leisure for intellectual improvement,
of the advantages for rearing families
