a Trua story Of human Mature.

There once lived in a small town in
Massachusetts an old Indian woman
Somehow or other the old woman had
accumulated quite desirable little pro-
perty. Yet she was an Indian, and was
treated with cool contempt by her neigh
bors. She had not set in the social cir
Gle, received no attention from those
around her, occupied a back pew in the
church, aud down towards the grave she
travelled, without friend or comforter.
Old Nance had but one relative living
that she know of, and he wild, grace
less son. He was the terror of the vii
lage, and spent his time in any thing but
respectable way. At last the vagabond
so worried the forbearance of his old
mother, that in a hasty moment she re-
solved to disinherit him and leave her mon
ey to the church.
Accordingly she started for the house
of one of the deacons, and made a clean
breast of her troubles, and acquainted
him with her determination. The deacon
grew from a cool to very amiable mood
as she proceeded, and at least became
profuse in his expressions Of gratitude.
The will, through the agency of the
deacon, was drawn but the old woman,
feeling little compunction had a clause
inserted which should make it void, pro-
vided the son should totally reform his
habits. Secrecy was enjoined upon the
deacon, who of course told nobody but
Ills wife; who ofcourse said nothing about
it save to one or two friends, who of
course spread it all over the village in the
space Of one day.
But the change wroughtin the situation
Of old Nance was miraculous. z" Such a
good old woman: The nice bits from
the best tables began to journey under
neat napkins to her humble abode. On
rainy Sabbath, ascarriage took her UP
at her door, and carried her to church,
where she Was kindly favored with afront
pew near The speaker, and near the stove
Her praise was in every body's mouth,
and her tottering form commanded res
pect every where. But she thrived remark
ably under this treatment, and lived, and
lived. In the mean. time the son was
looked upon with more than usual dis
trust, and the poor widow was deeply
commisserated on his disgraceful course.
Years passed away, and the kind at.
tentions Of friends were still continued
ito the widow, when, at last, old Nance
slept the sleep that knows no waking. A
large funeral, one.of the largest the little
village had ever SEEM attcnded.her to the
grave in the quiet church yard. There
were tears shed aboye.her beir, and ben
isons breathed upon her:memory.
The funeral was past The deacon,
the squire and a number ofthe village no
tables, were gatkeredin her dwelling, and
inone corner of sae- room sat the sad
and taciturn son. : = s.

a "ard Of Caution.

The July number of the Medical Ex.
aminer, we find report upon the prac.
tice of colo"ing confectionery with poi
sonous substances, and several instances
cited where the most disastrous results
have followed. We have often noticed
in passing the cheap stores and stalls
where sugar plums were exposed for sale,
the poisonous hue of the green and Grim:
son which are mingled in the high color
ing of the, acandy men, woman, horses
and5dogs,a which prove so attractive to
children. People of education or dis.
cernHent willreadily see that there must
be apoisonous admixture in all this or.
nanental confectionery; and many for
bid them to their children accordingly.
But the little ones themselves, eager to
spend; ;theirpenuies, or nursemaids, intent
OILY onkeeping their charge quite, may
sometimes interfere with the wisest rules.
Vast quantities of cheap sugar almonds,
ca-away, and comfts, are manufactured
in London, says this report, colored yel-
tow by .chromate of lead, while green is
produced with arseniate of copper, red by
vermillion, and white by carbonate OF
lead, or oxide of zine; while the frosting
of cakes, frequently contains from j to
90 per cent of Plaster of Paris.
. We have thought well worthy of note
from this the respectfully of the evidence
cited, and cases Of illness, and immedi-
ate notice, in the fine color given to a
peculiar kind of cheese known as "sage," "
and the deep green of imported pickles,
which is often impaired in the same man
ner. No less than seventy cases Of poi
soniag in one year, from the above causes
was reported by the writer Of the article
to which we allude. And as he justly re-
marks, g without such evidence before the
mind, it would not be credited by the great
bulk of the, community, that many of the
prcttiest and daintiest looking confections
of the dessert table are like the choice
luxuries of the Queen Mother, but too Of
ten the Of danger to those who
partake of them.-Sat. Gaz.

Alas it was will one day younger

weakness had told the son what she had
done, and he managed to have the will
drawn twenty-four hours after the previ-

The assembled wisdom and disinterest-

and the son had the pleasant satisfaction
of knowing that his mothers last days
