Andrew JOhsOn, the new Presi-
dent.
sketch of His Life, Public and Private.


Andrew johnson was born in Ra-
leigh, \. c., December 20, 1905
When he was four years of age he
lost his father, who died from the
effects of exertions to save friend
from drowning At the age of ten he
was apprenticed to tailor in his ma
tive city, with whom he served seven
years. His mother was unable to
afford him any educational advan
tages, and he never attended school
day in his life. While learning his
trade, however. he resolved to make
an effort to educate himself. His
anxiety to be able to read was partic-
ularly excited by an incident which is
worthy of mention. A gentleman of
Raleigh was in the habit of going in
to the tailor's shop and reading while
the apprentices and journeymen were
at work. He was an excellent reader,
and his fayorite book was volume OF
speeches, principally of British states
men. Johnson became Interested
and his first ambition was to equal
him as a reader and become familiar
with those speeches. He took up
the alphabet without an instructor;
but by applying to the journeymen
with whom he worked, he obtained a
little assistance. Having acquired a
knowledge of the letters, he applied
for the loan of the book which he had
so often heard read. The owner made
him a present of it, and gave him
some instruction in the use Of letters
in the formation of words. Thus his
first exercises in spelling were in that
book. BY perseverance he soon learned
to read, and the hours which he de-
voted to his education We're at night
after he was through his daily labor
upon the shop board. He now mp
piled himself to books from 2 to 3
hours every night, after working from
10 to II hours at his trade. Having
completed his apprenticeship in the
autumn of 1924, he went to Laures
Court House, S. c., where he worked
} as journeyman for nearly two years
While there he became engaged to be
married, but the match was broken
off by the violent opposition of the
girls mother and friends, the ground
of objection being Mr.. Johnson''
| youth and want of pecuniary means
J In May, 1926, he returned to Raleigh
where he procured journey work, and
remained until September. He the,
set out to seek his fortune in til,

his the hosts of worn and wearied

his ears breaks neyermore the disson-
ance of booming cannon, and clashing
saber, and dying groan, but youth and
life troops around him with a love
purer than ours, and a JOY which more
than balances our grief
Our president is dead. He has
served us faithfully and well. He has
kept the faith, he has finished his
course. Henceforth there is laid up
for him a crown of glory, which the
Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give
him in that day. And He who gave
him to us, and who SO abundantly
blessed his labors, and helped him to
accomplish so much for his country
and his race, will not permit the coun-

His mercy. What Mr.. Lincoln achieved
he achieved for us; but he left as
choice a legacy in his Christian exam
ple. in his incorruntible integrity, and
in his unaffected sympathy, if we will
appropriate it, as in his public deeds
so we take this excellent life and its
results, and, thanking God for them

ments, and the completion of the great
work which he who has gone left as Q

EulOgy on Abraham Lincoln,
Delivered ut Springfield, Mass, Apri
10Th, 1868.
BY DIR J. G. HOLLAND.

We have assembled to honor the
memory of the first citizen of the
republic We have come together to
say and to hear something which
shall express our love for him, our re-
|spect for his character, our high es-
llmatlon OF his services, and our grief
at his untimely removal from the ex-
allied office to which the voice of ma
ton had called him. Yet the deepest
OF oui thoughts and emotions are al
ways dumb. The oceans floor has no
voice. but on it and under it lie the
ocean S treasures. The waves that roll
ana roar above tell no story but their
own Only the surface OF the soul,
IKE the surface OF the sea, is vocal.
Deepidown within every one of our
hearts there are thoughts we cannot
Speak-emotions that find no language
-groanngs that cannot be uttered.
Inc surprise, the shock, the pity, the
sense OF outrage and of loss, the indig-
na'lon, the grief, which bring us here
Which have transformed a nation
uouant with hope and triumph into a
nation OF mourners-will find no full
expression here. 1t is all a vain show
these tolling bells. these insignia OF
sorrow these dirges, this suspension
VI business, these gatherings of the
people, these faltering words. The
browning man throws up his arms and
u''ers cry to show that he lives, and
Is conscious of the element which
"helms him; and this is all that we
can do.
therefore, without trying to tell how
'uuoh we loved him, how much we hon

0Hl WHY SHOULD THE SPIR-
"a. OF MORTAL BE PROUD?

Fotq ,sbv should the spirit of mortal be proud
its a swift fleeing meteor, a fsst-hying cloud
dash Of the lightning, break of the wave,
III passeth from life to his rest il the grave.
1 Tho leaves Of the oak and the willow shall fade
re- scattered around and together be laid;
md the Young and the old, and the low and the
high
Shall moulder to dust and together shall lie.
The infant mother attended and loved
Tho mother that infants affection who proved;
Tho husband that mother and infant who
blessed,
Each. all are away to their dwellings, Of Rest
The hand of the king that the sceptrc hath
The brow Of tho priest that the nitre hath
worm
The eve ofthe sage and the heart of the brave,
Are hidden and lost in the depth of the grave.
The peasant whose lot was to COW and to reap ;
/ The hcrdsman, who climbed with his goats up
the steep;
The bcggar. who wandered in search Of his
bread
\ Have faded away like the grass that we tread.
50 the multitude goes, like the flower or the
weed
| That withers away to let others succeed
/ So the multitude comes, even those we behold,
l 10 repeat every tale that has often been told.
| f. or we are the same our fathers have been
We see the same sights our fathers have seen
\ We drink the same stream and view the same
sun,
1 And run the same course our fathers have run.
J he thoughts we are thinking our fathers would
think
4 From the death we are shrinking our fathers
would shrink
Tothe life We are elinging they also would cling
But it speeds for Us all, like bird ON the wing,
1 They loved, but the story we cannot unfold;
They scorned but the heart of the naughty il
cold;
They grieved, but no wall from their slumber will
/ They joyed, but the tongue of their gladness is
dumb.

That walk on the turf that lies over their brow

LESSON FOR WELL. DISPOSED WIVES.
"Why is it, asked lady, chat so
many men are anxious to get rid of
their wives?' Because" was the re-
ply, $50 few women exert themselves
after marriage to make their presence
indispensable tothe happiness of their
husbands. When husband and wife
have become thoroughly accustomed
to each other when all the little bat
terry of charms, which both played off
SO skilfully before the wedding day,
has been exhausted many seem
to think that nothing remains but
the clanking of the legal chains which
bind them to each other. The wife
seeks to develop no new attraction for
her husband; and the latter perceiy-
ing the tapsus, begins to brood over
an uncongeniality which does not ex-
list, and to magnify the ills that do ex-
ist into indispensable obstacles in the
way of his earthly felicity. This is
the true secret. The woman who
charmed before marriage can charm
afterward, if she will, though of course
not by the same means. There are a
thousand ways, if she will only study
them out, in which she can make home
SO attractive that her husband will I'M
consciously dislike to absent himself
from it, and so she can readily make
herself the particular deity of the do
mestic paradise. This done, she may
quietly laugh at all attempts to alien
ate her husbands inclinations; and
with these inclinations will always
so. in such cases, his active judgment.
