A Touching Story The following affecting narrative purport; to have been given-b,, a tat her to hi.; son, as a warning derived from his own [titter experi ence of grievi g and resisting a Mother's love and counsel:— , What agony was visible on my mother's face when she a w that all she said and solihred lulled to move me! She rose to, go home, and Ifl flowed at a distance. She spoke no more to me till she reached her own door. • "It is se:.00l time now," said she. "Go my son, and once more lei me beseech you to think llpou what I have said." "I shan't go to schoA" said L She looked astonished at my coldness, but re plied firmly. Cerutii;ly you will go, Alfred, I cemmam "I will not," said I, in a tone of defiance. ''One of two things you must, du, AMed— Aber go to school thin morning or I will lock you in your room. and keep you there till yot , are ready, to promise implicit obedience to in. wishes in the 'future." "1 dare you to do you can't get me up stairs." "Alfred, choose now," said my mother, who laid her hand upon My arm. She trembled violently and was deadly pale. "If you touch me I will kick you," said I in a terrible rage. God knows I knew not what I said." "Will von go, Alfred ?" said she. "Norl replied, but quailed lyeneath her eye. "Then follow me," she said, as she grasped my arm firll.ly. I raised my foot—"oh, my son, hear me!"— raised my foot and kicked her—my sainted mother I How my head reels as the torrent of memory rushes over me. I kicked my mother, a feeble woman—my mother I She staggered back a few steps. and leaned against the wall. She did not look at me ; I saw her heart beat against her breast, "Uh, Heavenly Father," said she, "forgive him. he knows not what he does I" The gardener just then passed the door, and seeing my, mother - pale and almost unable to support herself, ho stopped. She beckoned him in. "Take this boy up stairs, and lock him iphis room," she said, and turned from me. Looking back as she was entering her room, she gave.' such a look of agony, mingled with the most intense love I—it was the last unutterable pang from a heart that was broken. , In a moment I found myself a prisoner in my own room. I thought. for a mcmeut, I would fling myself from the open window, and dash my brains ont, but I felt afraid to do it. I was not penitent. At times my heart was subdued, hut my stubborn pride rose in an instant, and bade me not yield. The pale face of my moth er haunted me. I flaw , myself in bed and fill asleep. Just. at twilight I heard a footstep ap proaching the door. It was my sister. "What may I tell my mother for you ?" she asked. "Nothing," I replied. "Oh, Alfred ! for my sake, for all our sakes, say that you are sorry. She longs to forgive you." I would not answer. Y heard her footsteps slowly retreating, and again 1 threw myself' on the bed, to pass another wretched and fearful nirrht. Another footSt4 sloWer and feebler than my sister's disturbed me. A voice called me b 3 name. It was my mother's. "Alfred, my son, shall I come?" she asked. I cannot tell what influence, operating , at that moment made me speak auverse to my feelings. The gentle voice of my mother thrill. ed through me, and incited the ice of my obdu rate heart, and I longed to throw myself on her neck, but 1 did not. ' But my words gave the lie .to my heart when I said I was not sorry.— I heard her groan. I longed to call her back, but I did not. I was awakened from my uneasy slumber, by heating my name called loudly, and my sister stood at my beds:de. ' "Get IT, Alfred. 'Oh, don't wait. a minute! Get up, and come with me, mother is dying." I thought. I. was yet dreaming, but I got up melancholy and followed my sister. On the bed and cold as Marble, lay thy •ththher. She had thrown herself on the bed to rest; arisingtogo again to me, she was seized with a palpitation of the heart, and borne senselese to her room. cannot tell you with what agony '1 looked upon her; my remorse was tenfold more bitter from the thought that she would never know it. I believe myself to be her murderer. I fell on the bed beside her. I could not weep. My heart burned in my bosom ; my brain was on fire. My sister threw her arms around me, am* wept in fine , ce. Suddenly we saw a light mo tion of mother's hand ; her eyes unclosed. She had recovered consciousness, but not speech.— She looked at inc and moved her lips. I could not understand her words. "Mother, mother I" I shrieked, "say only that you forgive me."— She could not say it with her lips, but her hand pressed mine.. She smiled upon me, and lift, tog her thin white hands, she clasped my owr ithin them, mid east her eyes upward. She moved her lips in prayer, and thus she died.— I remained still kneeling besides that dear form till my gentle sister removed me. The joy of youth had gone-before. ' Boys who spurn a mother'dcontrol, who are ,ashamed to own that they aro wrong, who thick it manly to resist her authority or yield to her influence, beware I Lay not up for yourselves bitter memories for future years. ser An urchin, not quite three years old, said to his sister; while munching a piece of gingerbread, "Sis, take half oh die cake to keep to afternoon, when I got cross." This is near• ly as good 'as the stow of the child who bellow •ed from the ''top of the stairs, "Ma, Hannah won't pacify men" Looking up and Looking IL. cu.
