Mothers DEyoTIoN.-About six years since,
an aged widow poorly clad with staff in hand, and
umbrella under her arm, might any morning be
seen vending her way 10 the old city grave yard,
below Frenchtown. Her walk appeared to be a
daily duty, and rain or shine, she performed the sad
pilgrimage without fail. From one who knew her
hstory.we learned that some twelve years previous,
her only son, promising young man, had suddenly
died, and been entonbed at this spot. The shock
OF separation inflicted blow upon the mother s
reason, which time had not wholly healed, and
since she saw his remains consigned to the earth,
her footsteps had almost daily been directed to.

The fact being made known TO wealthy and be-
nevolent citizen he had them removed TO grave

spot her walks were now directed. few years
more passed, and we again met her in our walks

more sunken, and her step less vigorous, but her
devotion for the spot where rested the bones Of her
boy was undated; and though the way was more
weary, she needed il mother old umbrella hung
in taters, but, though useless it has long been
the companion of her walks, that il had grown into
a necessary habit to bear it along.
Again we met her, few days since; her step
has become more feeble and slow, her head is bow
ed to earth, though looking for that resting place
which is near at hand the sometime shelter and
then companion Of her walks-the old umbrella
has fallen TO pieces, and been laid aside, but yet the
widowed mother totters TO her dead boys tomb, re-
