Tkc Old Mother.
She feits In the sunlight and as the
beams fall upon !er silver hair, iliey
light it np with a radiant glory.
Her hands are clnspcd upou her Tap,
her face ie placid and kindly, her
maimers gentle and serene. No
stormy passions agitate her heart,
no words of rancor fall from her
lips, no unholy ambition sways her
life. She dwells in the courts ol
peace, and the heaven to which the
angctls are waiting to welcome her
has thrown 'around her even here,
an atmosphere both of beauty and
of love.
She has in her long journey
through life, gathered up many
beautiful blossoms to weave in her
chaplet. One by one the roces have
faded, and few are now left in her
garland of life. lie to whom she
gave her heart and hand in the
sunny days of her girlhood fell long
ago by the way side,
"Wearied with the march or life."
She shared his prosperity and his
adversity, and either way she was
satisfied, because .in the sunlight
and the shadow she knew he was
near. She looks back now, far, far
down iuto the dark cave of time,
and she sees no glooinly shadow
cast by her upon the love which was
her joy and her Btrcngth. She can
not recall one unkiud word she
uttered, or remember a frown that
she ever wore. Glad ib the old
mother to think of this, and to know
that whatever sorrow came to the
husband's heart uoue ever camu
through her.
The children, too, have dropped
away from her side; only a few re
main to comfort and to cheer her.
Death, the reaper, has mowed down
some of the brightest blossoms in
her living wreath, and the young,
tbe strong, and the brave have pre
ceded her to the "silent land." Well,
this was God's will, and it must be
ber's; so she bow6 her head in resig
nation. Abseucc has carried others
faraway; oceans roll between and
mountains intervene, and the places
that knew them in the home know
them no more. Thus it is that one
by one, they dropped oilj leaving the
household wreath almost bare.
She utters no complaint, the old
mother; she kuows that these things
come not by chance, bnt arc decreed
by One who'doeth all things well."
She knows that the- who have
length of days many sorrows see
and countless changes. She does
not cloud the present by regiets for
the past; she accepts whatever sun
shine is vouchsafed her, and sends
not her heart out yearuiugly after
what has left her path.
She is cheerful, serene, and con
tented aud her heart g!oV6 with
Jove and melts with pity towards all
humanity. She is as full of sympathy
as a rose is full of perfume, her
words are replete with the wisdom
gathered from the experience aud
observation of many years, and in
learning humauity her knowledge
has taught her pity aud charily, not
harshness and condemnation. For
her children there burns belore the
shrine of her heart a perpetual lamp
of lovo which uever loses one drop
of oil. Brighter aud purer grows
the flame, lighting up the datkest
nook of home. JSo cold winds from
the shores of indifference can make
the flame eveu flicker: abseucc can

no power to lessen the undy
light of the old-mother's love. Th
joys of her children are her joys
she sorrows wheu they sorrow ; and
ehe thrills with pleasurable pride
when the world crowns them with
success. She. has no ambition lor
herself, she would not bend her head
lor the brightest of earthly crowns
but she would gladly see the chil
dren of her love crowned aud hap
py. Loving, unselfish, serene, gentle,
devoted aud cheerful, thus lives the
old mother a blessing to the home
that holds her, a joy to the hearts
that love her, an inspiration of good
to those that look up to her. God
blet8 the old mother! Ex.
A Ckecrfal Heart.
A inerry or cheerful countenance
was one of the things which Jeremy
Taylor said his enemies and persecu
tors could not lake away from him.
There are some persons who spend
their lives in this world as they
would spend their lives if shut up
in a dungeon. Eyerythiug is made
gloomy and forbidding. They go
mourniug aud complaining from
day to day that they have so little,
and are constantly auxious lest what
little they have should escape out of
their bands. They look always up
on the dark side, and can never en
joy the good that is present for the
evil that is to come. This is not
religion. Keligiou makes the heart
cheerful; aud when its large and
benevolent principles are exercised,
men will be happy in spite of them
selves. The industrious bee does
not complain that there are so many
poisonous flowers and thorny
branches in bis road, but buzzes on,
selecting tho houey where he can
flud it, and passing quietly by the
place where it is not. There is
enough in this world to complain
about and fiud fault with, if men
have the disposition. "We often
travel on a hard and uneven road ;
bnt with a cheerful spirit, we may
walk therein with comfort, and
come to the end of our journey in
peace.- -Baptist Weekly.

Of one kind of human life it is

The masses, with their tendencies,

of the whole which, comparatively

over the cultivated, that they are
impelled by an instinct in the direc

all Instinct must pass under the

A Few Words to Hoys.
Fancy the world a hill? lad;
Look where the millions stop:
You'll nnd the crowd at the uaMe, lads,
There's always room at the top.
Just think of it, boys, in a few
years you will be the men of your
town ; ye9, the business men of ev
ery trade, occupation aud profes
sion. What sort of men arc you
preparing yourselves to become?
Remember (as Charles Sumner said)
"that 'Character is everything," and
is of slow growth. Habits are ei
their good or bad; if yon are iu
doubt ns to the quality of any habit
which you indulge in, just ask your
self if it is becoming to true man
hood ; and if you canuot answer it
iu the affirmative, quit it at once,
and forever. In general, boys arc
good judges of right aud wrong,
but sometimes they arc thoughtless.
Don't indulge in any useless or
hurtful habit because others do, nor
because they urge you to. You
cannot become men of true worth,
without often saying no, aud a no
that has no hiut of a possible yes in
it: and there will be times also, when
you must say yea, and make it ring
like the blast of a trumpet. Energy
aud character tclT: if you possess
these, you willcommaud respect aud
confidence everywhere.
N. D. Howe.
An old gentleman in Key. West
took his sou's watch to show him
how easily he could be robbed, and
then asked him the time. The young
man was distressed to find his watch
had been stolen. "Never mind,"
said his faiher, "I took it to show
you how easily you could loose it ;
here it is." But as he felt in his
pocket to return it, he was surprised
to find that some thief more adroit
than himself had taken it.
Some people will pay everything
else before they will pay attention.

A SIIE"T MAI.
A Moh Whe Swore Off from
TnlkiHg: Fifty Years.
Asael P. Intnan, whose funeral
took place two miles east of TJtica
this morning, was a highly eccentric
character. Seventy years ago he
built a log cabin on one of the hills
that slope to the Mohawk river. Ho
was then 1G years of age, had a wife
and $30. Some time during the
first year of his wedded life Inrnan
informed his wife that he intended
to preserve silence for the remain
der of his days. This conclusion
was the result of an excitiug dia
logue which Intnan overheard be
tween his father and a near relative.
Expressing a belief that more harm
than good is wrought by speech, he
announced his determination to
place a permanent padlock upon his
lips. This was in 1S10.
The following year his first child
was born., When that interesting
event was approaching a near cli
max Inman rode several miles in
the night to Fort Herkimer in quest
of a physician. He carried slate
and pencil, wrote a statement of the
situation, aud returning with the
medicine man received the an
nouncement of his paternal respon
sibilities in silence. The following
year in 1S12 when the yeomen of
Central and Northern New York
were summoned to the defense of
Sackett's Harbor, Inman reported
for duty at a post near Adams, Jeff
erson count', riding alone nearly
100 miles through the forests to the
recruiting station. Producing his
slate he wrote: "I come to fight
not to talk.' The commanding offi
cer declined to give him a place in
the ranks, and Inman remained at
the post, working without pay for
many mouths.
He was noted for his strength.
With Ezra Grinuell (who is now
living at the age of 87,) Inman car
ried a cannon Irom the St. Ltwrcuce
river to Adams, Jefferson county, a
distance of forty miles. The men
were four days making the trip.
Two days of this was spent in the
search of a lost trail. Both were
without food during the journey,
but Inman uttered no word of com
ment or complaint. After five or
six years of this remarkable silence
other eccentricities were developed.
He would never read alter sunset;
he refused to drink well water, and
lor sixty-five" years slaked his thirst
rer that Had not touched
the ground. His diet wasexfreme-
Jvsimple. Any article of footTsTis
ceptible of adulteration was shunn
ed. He always sat by a wood fire,
and of late years, when traveling,
carried a box or trunk containing a
supply of fuel. Inman visited New
York city once some twelvo years
ago riding as far as Albany one
day and completing the journey the
day following. For fifty years. he
has not been out of doors alter G
o'clock at night. When asked why
he remained indoors evenings, he
wrote: "Man should rest with
nature."
Some years ago Inman had occa
sion to vi&it Buffalo, aud as a suit at
law was in perspective he went
prepared for a siege. Entering one
of tho hotels in Buffalo, the old gen
tleman wrote: "Best room. No
meals. I burn wood. Thought you
might not have enough, so I brought
some along." The big trunk, pack
ed with wood, was taken up to his
room,and it sufficed to keep the eccen-
ftric man warm aud cook his simple
meals during his sojourn-in Buffalo.
Kerosene oil was a pet aversion.
His theory was that the glare strain
ed the eyes, while the oil left an
unhealthy taint in the atmosphere.
He was never known to sit by a
coal fire, always avoided gas, and
his son, from whom I gather these
details, assures me thai, rather than
sit in a car heated by a coal fire, the
old gentleman preferred to ride
twenty-six miles on the platform on
a bitter cold day in winter.
Inman never used tobacco in any
form, never tasted liquor, avoided
tea and coffee, and never had per-
. vti ' iii i iir-r
sonal occasion to seeTT'iiHicaTad-
vice. He
cflnfidently expected
Ou years old, and but
mwumi aw
to
for
live to belOi
j -i -in i ii- i ," "
uio acciucui wuicn was me imme
diate cause of his death it id highly
probable he would have tallied a
century. Last spring ho sowed
thirty acres with oats, assisting
iu the fall harvest and performing
from choice the full quota of a
farm-laborer's work. The oat3 were
stored in a grauary connected with
the dwelling by a covered passage
way. Mrs. Inman, returning from
this granary last Monday, informed
her husband that tho mice were
making sad havoc with the oats.
The old gentlemaumouuted a high
stool to look into the oat-bin, lost
his footing aud, failing, sustained
injuries that speedily resulted in
his death.
He leaves a carefully-written rec
ord of his life during some sixty
years of silence. Portions of these
diaries are quite interesting, but as
a rule he enlarges upon the absurd
ity of giving utterance to frivolous
thoughts. He seems to have re
garded speech as a sacred gift, to be
indulged in only when it promised
benefit to the human race. Here
are some of his "axioms:" "Most
lives arc productive of empty noise."
"As 1,000,000 is to oncj so is sense
to souud." " Ho who talks most
feels least." "The fool talks while
the wiseman thinks." Inman leaves
a snug fortune which his son inher
its. His last written sentence was :
"Silence i3 golden.'" Hiso"ft-pen-ciled
admonition to his son wa,
"Keep your mouth shut." In the
neighborhood he was known as the
dumb man. He was quick to read
character, loved a good joke, and
insisted that there was so much iu
the world to learn and think about
that time spent iu talking was time
squandered. Iuman's funeral was
largely attended, neighbors coming
through the snow-drifts for miles
to manifest their respect for the si
lent man. TJtica (iv. Y.) Cor. Cin

Whale Forcing tUe iVortli
went Ia.hagc.
That whales have found for them
selves a northwest passage is proven
by the fact that whales have been
captured in the North Pacific having
harpoons that were thrown into
them on the other side of the conti
nent, says the San Francisco Bulle
tin. Captain Bauldry, of the Heleu
Mar, took a right whale having in
it a large flint harpoon, supposed to
have been put iu by natives of Capo
Batherstor the regions beyond the
mouth of the Mackenzie river, be
cause the natives oil this side never
use such weapon', but always bone
or iron. Ten years ago the Adeline
Gibbq took a whale in the Arctic
with an iron in it which had been
thrown the same season iu Hudson
Bay ; this was known to be so be
cause the iron bore the mark of a
chip at that time whaling in Hudson
Bay.
Love, virtue, and the people will
be virtuous; the virtue of a great
man is like the wind ; the virtue of
the humble is like the grass; when
the wind passes over it the grass
inclines its head.
