MY MOTHER
Ah ! well do I remember me, `
In childhood's happy dayS,
Of a meek-eyed, gentle mother,
Who taught my lips to praise ;
Who told me tales of years gone byy
And sung me oft to rest,
In plaintive strains of melody,
When pilloiv'd on her breast.
Ah ! well do I remember me,
When riper years had come,
Of that mother's tender counsels
In my own early home;
And when Deft; thro' love of change,
The scenes of joyous youth,
It was her voice that whisper'd low
The words of love and truth.
Ah ! well I do remember me,
When thro' the lapse of years,
I homeward turn'd my weary steps
Thrco guilt,' and wo, and tears,
'Twos the same sweet tone and melting eye,
To me a welcome gave. -
Those speaking eyes, those welcome tones!
Are now but of the grave.

A shado* on his face,
As solemnly' and 'silently

Methought some deep and heavy grief

And that a kindly spoken word
Might happiness impart.
No sooner did this thought occur,
Than by his side, I stood—,

after the war with England had been vir

furnished the Committee with b. full bill
of particulars of the Japanese entertain
ment, while the Committee, when asked
for the items, stoutly protest that they
have no knowledge of them whatever,—
The Lelands won't give the public the
items till the Committee authorize them
to do so, holding that their bill is "too
big a thing' ? to be treated lightly. They
are very free to state, however, - that it
was swelled to such enormous propor
tions because, during the stay of the
Japanese, they .were obliged to keep
open house, and furnish daily dinners to
one hundred and fifty Common Council
men and their friends. They say that
while the Japanese remained in their
house they boarded a host of loafers and
bangers-on upon the Committee, Who,
with the extra servants wnich they were
obliged to employ, averaged 750 persons.

YOUR LOCAL PAPER.
Reader, did Yen ever reflect on the
subject of supporting liberally the press,
and first of all, your own local newspa
per ? If not, permit us to suggest to you
your privilege and your duty in this re
spect.
Each city, town, and tillage in a toile
try like the United States should be
kepresented by a live local newspaper,
and it would be Well, not only for the
people and the place so represented, to
have a paper which would reflect credit
on both, but a paper which would he an
honor and a credit to the State and the
nation. Strangers from abroad judge us
by our newspaper press; and henee the
importance of making that instrument as
perfect and patent as possible:
It is the duty of every cititeti of each
place to contribute something toward
improving and strengthening the local
press. He may 'do it by subscribing and
paying for his paper, by advertising in it,
by recommending it.to others, or in all
of these ways, Were the country press
as liberally patronized and as well sup=
ported as it should be, the country would
not be so flooded with the worthless
trash, in the shape of "love-and-murder
stories," as it now is, which poison and
vitiate the minds of the young. There
is usually more moral integrity and cir
cumspection manifested by editors of
the country press than by those in the
large cities, and a more healthy tope of
mind and morals will generally be found
to pervade them. They are more free
from the reports of degrading vices and
crimes, and are never opened with that
feeling of suspicion which attaches to
the common "flash" literature of the day,
The country press may be improved.
Each individual residing within the
limits of its sphere .and circulation may
aid in its improvement. He may be on
the "look-out" for interesting, informa
tion, and when this is obtained, commu
nicate it to, the editor. He may bring
his own bnsiness before the public by an
appropriate advertisement, or, if he has
beef, pork, or grain to sell, he may an
nounce it through his local press. He
inity give historical sketches of the past,
and show the progress and changes go
ing on at present. He may help to make
his local paper a source of instruction to
strangers, and of entertainment to his
neighbors. Is he a Manufacturer ? Let
him invite, capital and influence by set
ting forth such natural advantages as
the place may possess, and indicate the
routes by which it may be reached, its
accessibility to the markets, etc. There
is no estimating the advantage's to any
town or village of a lice local journal.
and we doubt if there is to be found at
the present time an editor who gets fully
paid for the services he lierforms, and
we put the responsibility where 'it be
longs—namely, - on the people, whose
business and duty it is, first of all, to
support handsomely their own local
paper.
IS - Senator Seward arrived at I:sai
nt:lmm, Mich., at 2 o'clock on Saturday
morning, when,notwithstanding the time,
he found a crowd of people and Wide-
Awakes and lighted torches waiting to
receive him. The day proved a stormy
line, but a great multitude of people col
lected to hear Mr. Seward speak at noon.
Delegations were present from towns
forty miles. distant, and a fine display
was made. Hr. Seward spoke but twen
ty-five minutes, it being necessary for
him to leave for Milwaukie. He was
greeted with the greatest enthusiasm.—
He reiterated the doctrine of the "irre
pressible conflict," and ,expressed the
opinion that Mr. Douglas did not stand
the slightest chance for au election.
The apple crop south and west of
us, according to the New York Journal
of Commerce, is prodigious: exceeding
any fruit crop since 1848. This remark
applies to New York, New Jersey, and
Connecticut ; to all, the region from
which New York city draws its supplies.
In Eastern Pennsylvania the crop is
'short, as it is ,also in Maine, and these
are the only regions where the apple will
'fail this year. The abundance affects
prices, so that even the Newton pippins,
which are chiefly relied upon for expor
tation, and for the last ten years have
brought from three to six ,dollars a bar
rel, are now. held at two dollars.

LADY JANE nuariLrit
Among the passengers by the Adri
atic, was Lady Jane Franlib, a Woman
whose Lame has for years been linked
with all that is noble, heroic and Chris
tian ; and it seems not inappropriate
that we should briefly sketeh the evettts
that have brought her so prominehtly
before the public. Lady Jane became
the second wife of Sir John Franklin on
the Bth of March, 1828, in the twenty
eighth year of her age. In 1836, she ac
companied her husband to Van flieman's
Land, over which he had been appointed
Governor, and returned With him to Eng
land in 1843.
On the 10th of Mar; 1845, Sir John
set out from England in search of
north-west passage, expecting to tethrn
in .a dohple of years at the faftherest.—
Toward the close of 1847, alarm began
to be felt for the safety of tho party, and
early in the folloWing year three differ
ent expeditions were despatched by the
British Government in search of-the mis
sing navigators. The failure of these to
find any traces of Franklin's party in:
;laced the government, in 1849, to, offer
a reward of L 20,000 to any private ex-
ploring party; of any Country, which
would succeed in aiding the lost naviga
tors.
In the year 1850 no less than eight et.:
peditions were fitted out. That of Dr.
Rae ; the Behring's Strait expedition,
consisting otthe Enterprisei. Capt. Col-
Limon, and the Investigator;+Commander
McClure ; the Government Baffin's Bay
expedition, consisting of the ships Reso
lute, Capt. Austin; and the Assistance,
Capt. Omrnancy, together with the serew
propellers Pioneer. and Intrepid, in
charge of Capt. Sherrard Osborne ; the
schooner, .Felix, with a.stnall tender, the
Mary, put forward, by public subscrip
tion, and commanded by Sir Jas. Ross;
the Lady Franklin, fitted out by Lady
Franklin, and commanded by Capt. Rem.
ny ; the schooner Prince Albert; two
thirds of the cost of which was defrayed
by Lady Franklin; the American expe
dition, consisting of the Advance and
Rescue ; under command of Lieut. De
Haven; and lastly the North Star, a
transport ship, containing stores for the
expedition of Sir James Ross.
None of these were successful, "and
both the British and AMerican nations
were inclined to relinquish all further at
tempts to determine the fate of Franklin
and his party, who had now been absent
six years. Still the wife of the explorer,
with that womanly feeling which knows
no such word as despair, determined to
make one final effort to settle the ques
tion. Cheerfully emptying her purse,
and persuading her friends to aid her,
she fitted out the steamer Pox,
and in 1857 Captain McClintock, with
twentyeight stalwart British seamen,
•hid' farewell to Englanduntil they should
ascertain, if possible, the fate of Sir John
Franklin. The search proved &success
ful one. On the-northwest coast of King
William's Island a •simple piece of board
was found ; telling a tale - which none had
heard before ; that the ships Erebus and
Terror had been abandoned on, the 22d:
day of April, 1848, and—saddest of all—
that the leaderof the party had died on
the 11th of June, 1848, the very year he
expected to .return home. The news
reached England in September last.
Thus were the efforts of Lady Franklin
rewarded, though the hopes which had
sustained her for twelvelong years were
crashed. Since the arrival of Captain
McClintock ; this estimable lady has lived
very quietly, shunning socity rather than
courting it, and affording in her retire-
merit a noble example of an earnest, faith
ful, Christian woman, Accompanied by
a niece, she now visits this country, to
become the guest of Mr. Henry Grinnell,
and to acknowledge in person her sense
of his humane and generous efforts in
her cause.:A r ezo York World.
