A. MOTHER'S LOVE.
We love the friends our hearts hold dear,
Our sisters and our brothers,
But most of all, we ought to love
Our dear devoted mothers.
Although this worna dark and &ear,
Its joys partake of sadness,
Yet, now and then there will appear
A beam of love and gladness.
A friend may love us long and well,
And cling through joy and sorrow,
But then same cursed evil spell
May chill his love to-n:orrowl
But firmer than the love of friends,
And stronger than all other,
The purest love we ever knew
Is that of our dear mother.
A sister'slove is fond and true,
And full of tender feeling,
Appreciated by the few,
And often unrevealing;
But dearer than a sister's love,
And fonder than all others,
The dearest, sweetest love on ear:}
Is a devoted mother's.
A brother's love is firm and true,
A father loves us longer,
A wife's devotion 'a greater still,
And her affection stronger;
But dearer than these loves combined,
And sweeter than all others,
There is no love as true and kind
As a devoted mother's.
They tell that spirits hover round,
From evil 6o defend us,
That friends whom once we knew on
!MEI
In heaven may still befriend us;
But dearer here than angers love,
r And purer than all Mhos,
The love on earth we need the most.
Is a devoted mother's.
Then let us prize our mother's more,
While they are left to love us,
And cherish in our hearts their words,
If now they watch above us;
And ne'er forget, or treat with slight,
That love above all others,
Which filled, forever burning bright.
The hearts of our de. r mothers.

FATHER AND SON.
"As the old,cock crows the young
learn." A good story is told of a
man and his wife who were almost
constantly quarreling. Daring their
quarrels their only child (a boy) was
generally present; and of course
heard many of his father'. expres
sions. One day when the boy had
been doing something wrong, the
mother intending to chastise Lim
called him and ••Liid
"Come here sir; what did you do
that for?"
"The boy, complacently folding his
arms and imitating his father's man
ner,_ said :
"See lore, madam, I don't lowish to
have any words with you."
FA VORITEN,
"I have over found," says a sensible
writer, "that the men who are really
most fond of the society of kitties,
who cherish for them a high respect,
nay, reverence them, are seldom most
popular with the sex. Men of more
assurance, whose tongues are lightly
hung, who make words supply the
Mace of ideas, and plane,gornpliusent
in the room of sentiment, are tie fa
voritgs. A_ true respect for woman
leads to respectful actions towards.
them; and respect is usually a dis
tant action; and this great distance is
taken by them for neglect and want
of interest."
CONVE.RSATION BETWEEN A DEM

"Yon Democrats tieedn't coli.1;11a;.1
that your party doctrine in favor of
a hard currency isn't being carried

hard enough in all conscience."
