FRANKLIN AND HIS MOTHER It was an idea of Doctor Franklin's, if not a settled opinion, that a mother might, I}y a Linti of instinct of natural affection, recognize her ciiitireu, even though she had lust the recollection of their features. And un a visit to his native town of Boston, after an absence of 'Lamy years, he deter- wined to ascertain by experiment whether his theory was correct or not. On a bleak andchilly day in the month of J anuary, the Doctor, late in the after noon, knocked ou the door of his-mother's house and asked to speak with Jlrs. Frank lin. lie haling the oid lady.knitting before the parlor nre. lie introduced and ebscrving that he understood she en tertained travelers, requested icdgiugs for the :light She eyed him with that cold look of dis approbation iihich most people assume who imagine themselves insulted by being sup postYd. to exercise an employment which they deem a degree below their real Cie - ?Lawn in life. bhe assured him he had oc.eu misinformed—she did not keep a tav ern, nor did she keep a house to entertain strangers. It was true, she added, that to oblige some members of the Legislature, she took a sumll number of them into her family during the session; that she had four members of the Council and six of the house of Representatives, who then board ed with her, and that all her beds,were full. having said this she resumed her knit ting with that intense application which sato, as forcibly as action could, if you have concluded your business, the sooner you leave the house the better.' But on the Doctor's wrapping his coat about him, af fecting to shiver, and observing: that the weather was very cold, she pointed to a chair and gave him leave to warm himself. ' The entrance of boarders prevented all further conversation. Cotfee was soon served, and he partook with the family.— To the coffee, according to the good old custom ot the times, succeeded a plate ot pippins, pies, and a paper of tobacco, when the whole company formed a cheerful smok ing semi-circle before the tire. Perhaps no man ever possessed colloquial powers in a more fascinating degree than .11octor Franklin, and never was there oc casion on ivhich lie displayed them to bet ter advantage than the present one. He , drew the attention of the company by the solidity of his modest remarks, instructing them uy the varied, new and striking lights in which he placed his subjeCts, and de lighted them with apt illustrations and amusing anecdotes. Thus employed, the hours passed merri ly along until supper - was announced.— :Mrs. Franklin, busied with her household affairs, supposed the intruding stranger had left the house immediately atter coffee, and it was with difficulty she saw Lilo seat him self at the table with the freedom of a member of the family. Immediately after supper she called an elderly gentleman, a member of the Coun cil, in whom she was accustonled to confide, to another room, complained bitterly. of the rudeness of the stranger, told the manner . of his introduction to her house, observed that he seemed like an outlandish sort of a man. She thought he had something very suspicious in his appearance, and she con 7 eluded by soliciting her friend's ad vice as to the way in which she could most easily rid herself of his pres ence. The old gentleman assured her that I the stranger was surely a young man of good education, and.to all appearances, a j gentleman—that, perhaps, being in agree . able company, he paid no attention to the • lateness of the hour. He advised her to call the stranger aside and repeat her ina bility to lodge him. She accordingly sent her maid to him, and with as much com placency as she could command, she re capitulated the situation of her family, ob served that it grew late, and mildly inti mated he would do well to seek lodgings. The Doctor replied that he would by no means incommode her family, but with her 'leave he would smoke one more pipe with her boarders, and then mire. Be returned to the company, filled his pipe, and with the first whit his conversa tional powers returned with double force. he recounted the hardships endured by their ancestors; he extolled their piety, virtue and devotion to religious freedom. The subject of the day's debate in .the . Rouse of Representatives was mentioned by one of the members.. A bill has been introduced to extend the prerogatives of the royal governor. The Doctor immedi ately joined in the discussion, supported the colonial rights with new and forcible arguments, was familiar with the names of ; the influential men in the House, when ; Dudley was governor; recited their speech es, and applauded their noble defense of the charter o rights. During a discourse so appropriately in teresting to the delighted company, no wonder the clock struck eleven unperceived by them. Nor was it a wonder that the patience of Mrs. Franklin became entirely exhausted. She now entered the room and addressed the Doctor before the whole ; company, with a warmth glowing with a' determination to be her own protectress. She told him plainly that she thought her— self imposed on, but that she had friends who would defend her, and insisted that he should immediately leave the house. The Doctor made a slight apology and deliberately put on his great coat and hat, took polite leave of the company, and ap proached the street door, attended by the mistress and lighted by the maid. While the Doctor and his companions had been enjoying themselves within, a most tremendous storm of wind and rain occurred without, and no sooner had the maid lifted the latch than a roaring north easter forced open the door, extinguished the light and almost filled the entry with drifted snow and hail. As soon as the candle was relighted, the Doctor cast a woful look toward the door, and thus ad dressed his mother : "My dear madam, can you turn mu out iu this storm ? I am a stranger in this town, and will perish in the street. You look like a charitable lady, I should not think that you could turn a dog irom your liaise this cold and stormy night." "Don't talk of charity," replied his mother; "charity begins at home. It is your own fault, nut mine, that you have tarried so long. To be plain with you,sir, I do not like either your looks or your con duct, and fear you have some bat designs in thus intruding yourself into my family." The warmth of this parley had drawn the company from the parlor, and by their i united interference the stranger was per mitted to lodge in the house; and as no bed could be had, he consented to rest in an easy chair before the parlor lire. Though the boarders appeared to con fide in the stranger's honesty, it was not so with Mrs. Franklin. W ith suspicious I caution she collected her silver spoous,pep per box and porringer fioin her closet, and after securing her parlor door by sticking a fork over tue latch, carried the valuables to her chamber, charging the negro man to sleep with his clothes on, to take the great cleaver to bed with him, and to wa ken and seize the vagrant at the first noise he should make iu attempting to plunder. Mrs. Franklin rose before the sun, rowed her domestics, and was quite agreeably surprised to find her terrific guest quietly sleeping in his chair. She awoke him with a cheerful good morning; inquired how he rested and invited him to partake of her breakfast,which was always served previous to that of her boarders; "And pray, sir," said Mrs. Franklin, "as you appear to be a stranger in Bos ton, to what distant country do you be long ?" "1 belong, madam, to the Colony of Pennsylvania, and reside in Philadelphia.' At the mention of Philadelphia the Doc tor declared he for the first time perceived something like-emotion in her. "Philadelphia ?" said she, while the ear nest anxiety of a mother suffused her eye ; "why, if you live in Philadelphia perhaps you know my Ben 'I" "Who, madam 1" "Ben Franklin, my dear Ben. Oh, how I would give the world to see him ! He is the dearest son that ever blessed a moth er." "What! is Ben Franklin, the printer, your son ?, Why he is my most intimate friend. He and I worked together and lodged in the same room." "Oh ! Heaven forgive me !" exclaimed the lady, raising her tearful eyes, "and have 1 suffered a friend of my own Beu to ,sleep upon this hard chair, while I myself rested upon a soft bed !" Mrs. Franklin then told her unknown gueit that though lie had been absent from her ever since he was a child, she could not fail to know him among a thou sand strange faces; for there was a natu ral feeling in the breast of every mother, which she knew would enable her, without the ppssibility of a mistake, to recognize her son in any disguise lie might assume., Franklin doubted, and took leave to dis pute his mother's proposition on the power of natural feeling. He said he had tried this "natural feeling" in his own mother, and•found it deficient in the power she as cribed to it. "And did your mother," inquired she, "not know you or if she did not seem, to know you, was there not, in her kindness to you, an evidence that she saw something I iu your appearance which was dear to her, so that she could not resist treating you with particular tenderness and affection l" o, indeed," replied Franklin, "she neither knew me, nor did she treat me I with the 'east symptoms of kindness. She would have turned me out of doors but for the interposition of strangers. She could hardly be persuaded to allow me to sit at her table, I knew I was in my mother's I house, and had a claim upon her hospitali ty; and therefore, you may suppose, when she peremptorily commanded me to leave th' house, I was to no hurry to obey." "Surely," interrupted his mother, "she I would tell you herself I had always been a dutiful son—that she doated upon sue, and that when I came to her house as a stran , ger, my behaviour was scrupulously cor- I rect and respectful. It was a stormy night and I had been absent so long that I had become a stranger in the place. I told my mother this, and yet, so little was sho in- ; finenced by that "natural feeling" of which you speak, that she absolutely refused me I a bed, and would hardly suffer what she called my'presumption in taking a seat at' the table. But this was not the worst; no'' sooner was the supper ended than my good •mother told me, with an air of solemn ear nestness, that I must leave her house." Franklin tken proceeded to describe the scene at the front door—the snow drift that came so opportunely into the entry— his appeal to her "natural feeling" of a mother—her unnatural and unfeeling re jection of his prayer,and, finally, her very reluctant compliance with the solicitations of other persons in his behnlf—that he be permitted to deep on a chair. - Every word in this touching recital went " THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS WHERE LABOit.

Following him as before, down, down, down, I entered into another vast apart ment, lighted by a most flatter but dubious and unsatisfying gloom. 'I aking my seat, as usual, I felt the pressure of his two fin gers again on the opposite side of my head. What now? he inquired. Ay, I know not what, said 1. It is nut hope—nay it is hope ; but how strange ! It does not resemble such hope as mortal have and yet it carries its features well. It is a hope in doing wrong. It is entered in whatever may oppose itself to good. Sin, rebellion, mutiny, treason to heaven, and rage and fierce reVenge, and plots of deep and subtle purpose, such as may, perchance succeed against the Almighty and hurl hint from his seat—these are now my hope ; and yet this hope, stabbed by reason, madden ed by - fear, condemed" by conscience, is pushed on to powerful despair. Despair is powerful. It is the insanity of hope; and insanity is often stronger than sanity. It sometimes breathes resistless valor into ti mid breasts. it causes the fearful fawn to turn upon its pursuer, and makes a vul ture of the dove. Coale then, fell despair; be thou my hope; and heaven yet may tremble, when thou shalt marshal all thy rage. Nay, but he is Almighty, lam not; he is all good, I ought not; all my powers and passions war, by turns, upon my pur pose, which is nothing but loss of every expectation but that of eternal woe ! Come woe come ruin, come whatever lies next above annihilation, which I covet, but can not have, and bury me in deep oblivion, where no thought of life, no ray of light, no beam of goodness, hopes of unwished mercy, no took of hateful love, may ever reach me more Nay, Oh, God ! "1 will live!" this last, deepest, deathless element survives, to torture me forever. ' and forever I am doomed to live the black death of un changeable despair. Now thou hast prickled the worm, which coils eternally about thy heart, to sting thy soul forever, and pierce me 'with undying pangs. This, with thy other tortures, would alone be hell. That hell thou car- riest in thee. It is thyself, from whom thou canst never make one brief remove. Al ways to be thyself is hell. Fire, and ail I physical tortures, would be harmless here. j Depraved by sin, with thy memory harrow ing up thy recollection of better days, with ; thy imagination tilling thee with the most fearful shapes, with thy best affections cen tered in the love of sin, with thy anger ra ging against the essence of all good, and, worst of all, with thy deathless conscience forever damning :thee with its intolerable rebukes—this, last one, is hell. This is the hell we feel; and thou shalt sink deep er and deeper into it, while the cycle of eternal ages roll ! Is there, then, no reprieve"! None. Is there no speculation, no tradition handed down, of some period, however far away in the depths of revolving ages, when some change for the better may arrive? None whatever. Is there no hope that the souls, worn out with pain, will sink beneath its load and die ? No, never! every moment gives it new capacities to suffer woe. There will come a time, when thy grown heart shall hold more torment than all the suffering sons of cursed Adam ever knew by poverty, dis ease, misfortune, flood or fire ! Thou shalt afterwards carry more pain than all hell itself now knows. Thy being's law is growth. Hadst thou come here with a heaven formed character, heaven itself could not not now furnish thee a measure of thy future joy; but, with a mind bred to sin, there is naught before thee but the deeper and deeper depth of insnfferable agony and despair ! Look thou upon those awful deeps, where shapes of misery thick en and blacken as thy vision travels down. Behold them, descending, descending to wards the bottomless abyss of woe ! Mark the dial-face of that massive clock above thee, whose pendulum ticks ages instead of seconds; and every time the hammer of it hits the - doleful bell, the words forever, forever, forever, roll and reverbefate through the deep caves of hell ! As I lay this crown upon thy head, which shall touch thy faculties into ten fold life, harrowing them all up to their horrid work, I leave thee, as thou didst flint desire, to wander thy ir,ay down alone ! Nid sooner had the crown fairly settled upon my head, than every power and pro pensity of my perverted nature rose into a rage of activity, which I had never known before. If the excitement of a single fa culty under the successive touches of my instructor, could cause me such insuffer able agonies, what words shall express the repeated hells of their combined and con centrated action ? Like one on fire with delirium, I ran down the rapid descent, from hall to hall, flight after flight, deter mined, as soon as possible, to reach the lowest level of the strange edifice, and thence plange at once into the last abyss of ruin ; but when the awful verge was gained, and the plunge made, and I found myself descendingothrough regions of think dark ness to an unknown and perhaps unexist ing bottom, a cringing horror took such possession of me, that I awoke from the frightful vision, which, in spite of the cold snow upon which I was lying, had caused great drops of perspiration to stand upon my forehead.—Sketches of the threefold life of man.
