The Mothers Voice.

My Mothers voice how often creeps
Its cadence on my lonely hours, a'
Like healings sent on wings of sleep,
Or dew upon the unconscious flowers.
I Imight forget her melting prayer,
While pleasures pulses madly fly;
But in the still, unbroken air
Her gentle tones came stealing by,
And years of sin and manhood fee,
And leave. me at my mothers. knee.
/. Most of us have experienced the lux
ury oftears when listening to an old bal
lad. We know an old man who, having
lived long career of vice and crime, was
at length banished from the country; aud
who, while undergoing his period Of ban
ishment amidst the wilds and iungles Of
u distant lsl.d, heard in the summer even.
tide sweet voice, singing in his own
language the very song which had lulled
him to his infant slumber, when he knew
crime by name, and knew it only TO alb
hor. Ithad been sung, too, by the cradle
of an infant sister, one who had died
young, and now was in heaven; the moth
er, too, was no more. '' ''
But the song--tbe old song had not
lost its influence oves him yet. Back
came trOoping upon him the old memo.
ries which had so long slumbered down
there in the unconsumed depths Of his
heart ; the mother and the father; the
household gathering; the old school
house; the iime-worn church, ,half-hidden
by the old yew.trees, where he h ad first
heard the Bible read, ,-all came back upon
him as fresh MS fit were yesterday; and,
overpowered by his feelings, he gave vent
to themiin food of tears. And then the
old man grew calm, and his latter days
were his best days; and when the term Of
his punishment had expired, he came
back 10 his fathers land, and there in
that old village graveyard, amid whose
grassy hillocks he played and gamboled,
and where the mother and her little ones
were sleeping, he laid down his weary
limbs, and sank peacefully away into a
common grave.--Eliza Cooks Journal.

1.-THE next time you come. With childish
surprise at the prevaricaiion / returned
home, and such was the impression on
my mind from the disappointment have
neuer forgotten it. The poor woman has
gone to her long rest years ago; have
forgotten her name, but shall never forget
this little act Of deception. ~ ,s..
On another occasion, when between
eight and nine years old, was near the
roadside one Sabbath morning, when a
private carriage stopped near me. A
lady looked out, and calling me TO come
near, asked me great many questions,
and ended by inquiring whether could
read. On being answered in the affirm
alive, she said. ! shall ride this way next
Sabbath, and | will bring you pretty
book. 0 how long that week seemed,
and how often | thought and spoke Of the
lady, and wished the time TO pass away
that l might receive my book. Sabbath
came. With my hair nicely smoothed
and my Sunday dress on, l waited and
watched near the road, expecting every
moment to see the carriage, and thinking
