TAe OId Washer Woman.


An ,pg yoR lines her hands have laden,
Alaundfess, with white hair appears,
Alert as many a youthful maiden,
= sPiae other fVe-and-seventy years,
tBFntey she won those white hairs, still
Eating Ihe bread hard toll obtained her,
And laboring truly 10 fulfil
The duties to which God ordained her.
ohce she wasyoung and full of giadness;
she loved ard hopcd-was wooed and won,
Then came the matron's eare-the sadness
NO loving heart on earth may shun.
Three babes she bore her mate; she prayed
Besides his siek-bed he was taken;
She saw him in the chur h.yard laid,
fetkepi her faith and hope uushaken:
The iask her little ones dffs6dins,
She met unfaulterlng from that hour;
She taught them thrit and honest breeding,
her rvlrtues were their worldly dover.
10 seek employment, one by one,
Forth with her blessings they departed,
And she was in the world alone
Alone and old but, still high-hearted.
'With frugal forethougt, self-denying,
She gathered coin, and fax she bought,
And many night her spindle plying.
Good store of ine-spun thread she wrought.
The thread was fashioned in the loom;
She brought II home, and calmly seated
10 work, with not thought ofgloom,
Her decent grave-clothcs she completed.
she looks on them with fond elation:
They are her wealth, her trea sure rare,
Her ages pride and con ISOLATION,
Hoarded with all a miser's care.
She dons ehe sark each Sabbath day,
To hear The Word that faileth never;
Well-pleased, she lays it then away,
Till she shall sleep in II foreSers
would that my spirit witness bore me,
That, like this woman, l had done
The work my Master put before me,
" Duly from morn from sun!
Would that life's cup had beenbyme
Quafed in such wise and happy measure,
And that too might finally
LOOK on my shroud with such meek pleasure!

A Mothers Love.

Who hath greater love for her children
then mother! A father has love but it il
not like hers-so pure, and loving. He il
not with us SO much and therefore he canno
feel for us as much as she can. She is will
us in the hours of sickness and of death, ant
every thing that she can think of that is fo
our good is procured, sometimes at the great
estrisk. in order to restore us. If a mother
lose her child who feels it more than she
does!
Amothoris Lowell All what can be,
ofearth's affection half so holy,
From sin and selfshness so free
So little tinged with human folly?--R. A. G

the eastern prince, on the subject of temper
ance. In this he proolaims Gods adherence
of drunsenness, and says He has sent dswn
his holy command, forbidding men to drink
wine. Yang, therefore, proceeds to forbid all
princes and mobiles, ministers of state and PEG
pie, brethren and sisters, to indulge in the
use of wine, even privately, under penalty of
being Immediately beheaded.

Message Of Gov. Clark. az 3, Y.


AlsASf, jan The Governors Es0sga
has been delivered 10 the LeEislaturs. 10
states that the receipts to the general fund Of
the State have been for the year 81, s65,eos
and the expenditures forths same period have
been 81 $4,000. He anticipates oonsiders-
bic reduction in the receipts during the pres
snt year in consequence Of the reduction OF
taxes. aud also Of receipts from canal tolls.
The debt Of the general fund, ca the soth
September, was So, S55, 900. The capital II
the school fund has increased $4,000 during
the year. The receipts from canals amount to
$2,SS9, 900, and the expenditures 81 ,23s 900.
The surplus does not meet the purposes for
which it was designed, BY $4,000. This de-
6cit he attributes to the general commercial
| embarrassment and the short croes Of Last
fall.
The banking statistics show an increase Of
| capital, during the year, Of $7,0sl.0 900. He
recommends . modification Of the law allow.
| ing the deposi. Of bonds and mortgages as
security and also repeal Of the Law impris.
ening Witnesses and favors further encour.
agemsnt Of the free school system.
On the liquor question, Governor Clsrh de-
fines his views at considerable length, and
strongly advocates an entire prohibition Of the
sale of ardent spirits, citing many and foreibls
arguments in favor of such an enactment He
considers such prohibition clearly within sbs
limits Of the Constitution, and hopes . bill will
be framed that will effectually suppress the
sale without infringing upon just personal
rights.
| The Governor recounts the particulars OF
the Lennon slave case and Of the attitude
assumed BY Virginia, and recommends that
provision be made to defend the rights and
interests of the STATE. He regrets the veto Of
| the River and Harbor bill Of the last session
of Congress, and considers that proper tariff
would have obvisted tho present commercial
and general distress. He strongly denounces
tho repeal of the Missouri Compromise, and
considers that its restoration is essential for
the security, peace and permanent welfare of
the country.
