The vulgar proverb, that "fngers
were made before forks" has per
haps a more curious meaning than
the generality of readers might sup.
pose.
Forks for the table have not been
invented much more than two hun.
dred years. In early times they were
not known even at the entertainments
OF sovereign; but the guest who sat
nearest to ajoint held one part with
ms nngers while he carved the other
with tis knife.
They appear to have had their or.

saddeniug Words.

There are many euphonious words in the
English langusge-rnore perhaps than 10
any other modern tongue except the Italian
of which the sound 80 harmonizes with
the sense, that they charm at once the ear
and the heart. The vocal body, 50 to speak
with which the sentiment is clothed, seems
as appropriate to it as lovely countenance
to the possessor Of beautiful mind -
Home, Love" "Slumber," "Caress," ("
Welcome" belong to this category, but it
Is In certain pathetic expressions that the
agreement Of sound and sentir ent strikes
us as most perfect. Poe said that "Eever-
more" was the most mournful Of all words.
Byron gave the same melancholy pre-emin.
ence to Farewell" and DR.. johnson
thought that of all phrases ''The last" was
the most touching. ''The last look, "the
last sigh, 'the last of earth" These are
certainly solemn and affecting utterances
but we think, with late writer, that there
is more real pathos in the word "gone"
than in any other in the language. To use
Spanish, or rather Moorish, metaphor, it
is full of tears How it appals the sense
and desolates the heart of the weeping
watchers when spoken, ever SO softly, in
the chamber of death. Gone 1t cuts off
all hope. 1t vibrates on the air like the
tone Of passing bell. Gone, forover!-
what four syllables in any language com.
rrehends so much Of mystery, and desola-
tion and woe "Gone |" says the lorn
mother when the angel has borne away the
last lamb Of her fair flock, "and l am left
alone, alone %
Gone ~ shrieks the distracted widow
as she reads the name of her hearts idol on
the death scroll of war. 'Oh husband,
that | had died with theel" "Gone -
sobs the strong man, as he totters, weak as
an infant, from the solemn room where the
wife of his bosom lies cold and pulseless.-
All it is a word of sorrow even when
spoken of tho absent who may return. but
as applied to the unreturning dead there is
no elaborate sentence that ever was carved
on tomb or monument so full Of genuine
pathos. Yet there is connection in which
it imparts consolation to the bereaved. If
we can say trustfully of those who have left
us-"Gone !-gone to the better land, )" and
hope and believe that we shall meet them
where there are no more partings and the
language of sorrow is unknown, we shall
not refuse to be comforted because they
are not"
