The Boston Transcript truly says, there is
no trait perhaps more common or more ami
able IN The human character, than the attach
ment which each individual feels for his ma

can never be forgotten. The scenes of his
childhood, the joys and griels, the pleasures
and vexations which he experienced i'm his

gambol' with his juvenile companions, will
ever remain fresh in his memory. The sold
oaken bucket" from which he qualed the pure
fountain of life, will often recur to his recol-
iecuon, long after he has ceased to see the al
iernate ascending and defending reservoir OF
The purest of liquids. With what resistIess.
tencer, and soul-subduing influence does the
remembrance of past scenes and pleasures fire.
