" The following noble sentiments
on g Woman : were given by Mr..
Wilson, of the Appeal, at Memphis,
at the printers celebration of Frank
Inns birthday. Read it fair ones, and
than say the "craft " don't tappreciate
your sex if you viii
81 do not believe there was ever a
country, or ever an age, when true
and noble wonfan was more highly ap-
preciated than at the present moment
in the United States. It is true, as
announced by the immortal Burke,
that the age Of chivalry has gone. Men
no longer clothe themselves in mail,
and go forth to chant the praises of
their ladie-loye," and to deal deadly
blows to any who dare breathe asper-
sions upon her fame. Rut | verify be-
lieve, that here in this cauntry, among
onr working people, who make no pre-
tensions to heroism, although their
whole existence is one life-battle for
those they love and cherish, there is a
more exalted appreciation of woman
and more chivalrous regard for the
sex than was ever dreampt of by bold
King Arthur and the heroes OF the
Table Round. We cannot place toe
high an estimate upon the influence Of
true and virtuous woman, not only
within the magic circle of her owl
home-where she hovers like minis
tering angel-but upon society at large
and that influence has ever been WELD
ed for the cause Of purity and religion
| to elevate and TO refne-and it vii
| yet make our earth
/ g Smile back on heaven
| A happy child upon a happy mother,
| From whose ripe breast she draws tn
/ milk of Gfe."
There is a strength in weakness, ant
men who have been known to scof a
the law and defy its penalties, hav'
been made to quail and tremble beneatl
the mild and tender reproof of sisterl..
or motherly love; and those who hav
broken chins of steel and adamant, an
defed the strong arm of man, hay
| been naanaeled with chain of flowers
and led willing captives into the path
of reetitude by the soft, white hand

EMPLOY Your OWN MECHANICS
The following sensible article upon the
above anbject, we clipfrom an exchange
paper. There is no doubt but there is
an obligation resting upon the people
of every community to employ their
own mechanics
awe have frequently spoken upon
this subject, and would impress the
matter upon our readers by repeating
our views. If the citizens of any town
dc not encourage their own mechanics,
that town will not be prosperous
Every article that is manufactured at
home should be purchased there, and
| notabrpad. Ifyou send to other towns
for your shoes, your hats, your clothes.
your furniture, ETC., when you can get
articles Just as good at your own door,
you are lending hand to system Of
| trade, which, if carried out, will pros
| trate your own merchants, your own
school houses and churches, and de-
stroy even yourself. Whenever You
| purchase an article abroad, which yon
can have made at home just as well,
you do great wrong to your own
town. You take the money which you
| pay for that article, from your own
mechanics. and give it to the support
of mechanics residing elsewhere. You
contribute tot the prosperity Of strangers
that which you refuse to contribute t
the prosperity Of the town in which
you live. Youmay think you are put
ting penny in your pocket, but il
fact you are taking severa! out of you
} neighbors' pockets, and in the end ou
J of your Own."

An Hour at the Old Play Ground.
BY HENRY MoRFoRD.


sat an hour to-day, John
Beside the old brook stream.
Where we were school boysin old time,
When manhood was a dream;
The brook is ehoked with fallen leaves
The pond is dried away
j scarce believe that yon would know
/. The dear old place to-day.
The school house is no more, John,
Beneath our loousts trees
The wild rose by the window side
No more waves in the breeze;
The scattered stones look desolate;
The sod they rested on
Has been plowed up by strange hands
Since you and | were gone.
The Chestnut tree is dead, John,
and what is sadder now
The broken grape vine of our swing
Hangs on the withered bough;
/ read our names upon the bark
And found the pebbles rare
Laid up beneath the hollow side
As we had piled them there.
Beneath the grass grown bank, John,
[ looked for our old swing,
That bubbled down the alder path,
Three PAGES from the spring
The rushes grow upon the brink,
The pool is black and bear.
And not foot, this many day,
It seems, has trodden there.
/ took the old blind road, John,
That wandered up the hill
'Tis darker than it used to be,
And seems so lone and still
The birds sing yet among the boughs
Where once the sweet grapes hung
But not vice of human Kind,
Where all our voices rung.
sat me on the fence, John,
| That lies as in old times,
| The same half panel in the path
/ We nsed so oft to climb
And thought how DER the bars of life
Our playmates had passed on,
| And left me counting on this spot
i The facts that now are gone.

For WHAT is A MOTHER RESPONSE
BLE?-She is responsible for the nurs-
ing and rearing of her progeny; for
their physical constitution and growth;
their exercise and proper sustenance in
early life. A child left to grow up de-
formed or meagre, is an object Of ma
ternal negligence. She is responsible
for child's habits, including cleanli
ness, ordor, conversation, eating, sleep
ing, and general propriety of behavior.
A child deficient, or untaught in these
particulars, will prove living monu-
ment to parental disregard-because
generally speaking, mot her can, ifshe
will, greatly control children in these
matters.
Sheis responsible for their deport.
