stephen was anNiJus 70 see kis moth
er. His mother was anxious 10 see Ste
phen. The dutiful boy advertised Il in
public prints, that he was on his way to
see his mother, who resides in the west
ern section Of New York State. He nat
urally came 10 New Haven, Guillord, and
Hartford, on his way, and at the latter
place he was betrayed" into a speech.
Still bent on the maternal pilgrimage, he
goes towards Boston, attracted by a rela-
tive Of his wife. II was case of rcla-
tive attraction. On his way, at Worces.
ter, some Judas betrayed him into a
speech. At Boston, "betruyod" again.
Now, however, he started towards his
mother, At Albany, seeking TO pass
through there as a private man, astonish-
cd al the magnificent domOnstration, the
unexpected reception (like the one at
Hartford,) he was "betrayed" into q
speech, in which he declared he was on
his way % see his mother. From here,
the pilgrim son reaches Saratoga. Here
he lays aside politics, thinks Of HE long
unseen mother whom he Is about 20 visit
and sinks into the genial pleasures Of the
place. Previous TO this we ought to
mention,h was "betrayed" into a speech.
Full Of thoughts Of his mother, he starts
in a northeast direction and lands at Rut-
land, the home Of his youth. Owing to
the wholly unexpected arrival in thatplece
40 hallowcd, &c, ,--hC--well ia "betruy-
cd into a speech.
Full Of pcnt-up affection, he can no
longer restrain himself, but goes 70 Bel
lows Falls. Amid the believing Of the
populOce aud the aobs Of stephen, he is
deceived, deludod, imposed on--in fact,
betrayed into a speech, He fees to
the north; he lands at White River juno
ton. What a junction--what a junction
In point of fact, was therel Stephen was
"betrayed" into a speech. Cutting his
filial stick In a southeast direction, he in
forms us at Concord that he is visiting
New England TO look upon the grave Of
a relative. Sad Stephen, how skilliully
| his anxiety 10 sec his mother Is disguised.
| This statement was made in course OF
some extended remarks which, in point
Of fact "betroyed" pious Eneus into a
speech at this very place. At MRnches-
| ter, at Nashua, at Providence, still seek
| ing the maternal embrace that still re-
cedcd, he is still surprised and still "be-
trayed%--but why repeat the sad de-
tailsl
Stephon-Stephen who seems unable
! to cut his bread and cheese even, IL next
seen at a clsm-bake at Rocky point; far,
far from his mother, relatives or graves,
ON this strictly private tour 20 see his
mothor-Stophon, we say, sinks the ma.
ternal for a season, and allows one hum
dred and fifty bushels Of baked clans and
thirty thousand people to "betray" him
into speech--A brief one ofan hour and
a half.
Look at the man Of New England
Where do you think Stephen 10 now
Why, way down on on the rocky end oi
Rhode Island, at Newport, kicking up
his truant heels by the great ocean, Os
much as to say that, having travelled all
49, al -.Js~ - $780,. sN.--.s-.- .t--rt--
maternall
And yet, by and by, when he gets re
4 cuperated and wants TO start on another
tour, we shall hear his low, sweet voice
mingling with the roar Of the surf dowr
there on the sounding sea, softly sing
ing
awake, and call me early,
Call me early, mother dear"
