The Father Of President john
son

Fiity-three years ago the following
obituary notice Of President John
sons father iJanuary 10, 1872 ap-
pcared ia the Raleigh n &. lSt0r:
Died IN tnis city, on saturday last
Jacob Johnson, who had for many
years occupied an humble hut use
ful station in life He was the city
constable. sexton and poorer in the
State bank IN his last illness he was
visited by the principal inhabitants
of the city, and hv all of whom he
was esteemed for his onesty. sobrie
ty, industry, aud humane, friendly
disposition Among all u whomc he
was known and esteemed, none la
mented him more except, perhaps,
his relatives than the publisher ot
this paper, for be ows his lite, on -
particular occasion, To the boldness
and humanity Of Johnson
The North Carolina Standard Ihus
explains the concluding lines in the
above obituary notice.
Thomas Henderson was upset in Il
.tOe, aud was so nearly being drown
Ell that life was nearly extinct when
he was recovered Jacob Johnson
was on the bank, safe and secure.
But he saw his friend drowning be
fore his faco rhoughtleSs of life he
plunged in, at the hazard OF his own
life. He did finally succeed ia say
ing his friend, but hOth were nearly
exhausted wheu they reached the
shore. The statement in regard 10
Jacob Johnson "being esteemed for
honesty, sobriety, industry, and hU-
name, friendly disposition" is incur
red in by the old inhabitants now
living in this city. The greatful and
generous tribute to his worth and
goodness Of heart is more to be valu-
ed and esteemed than "stOried urn
or animated bust" As President
Johnson may so regard it and no
doubt he does That peculiar trait
so marked in the father-of devotion
and attachment to a proved friend
the son seems to have inherited in an
eminant degree.

EsuTSuit OF Wealth.

The insane and Unsuitable passion
FOR accumulation, ever ready, when
circumstances favor, to seize upon
the public mind. is that Glove of mon
ev," which is the root of all evil, that
covetousness which ia idolatry. II
springs from an undue, and idOlatrous
estimate of the value of property.
Many are feeling that nothing will
do for them or for their children but
wealth. 1t is lheir god and the god
of their families. Their sons are
growing up to the same worship of it
and to an equally paneful reliance
upon it for the future; they are rush
ing into the expenses which the di-
vided property of their fathers house
will not enable them to sustain; and
they are pre- pairing to be, in turn and
from necessity the slave to the same
idol.
How truely is it written that
"they that will be rich fall into temp
tatiOn and = snare, and into many
foolish and huFtful lusts, which drown
men in destruction and perdition~
There is no need that they should be
rich, but they will be rich All the
noblest functions of life, may be dis
charged without wealth, all its high
est honors obtained; all its parest
pleasures enjoyed-yet, we repeat it
nothing will do it, but wealth. Dis
appoint man of this, and he mourns
as If the highest end of his life were
defeated. Strip him of this and this
gone allis gone. Strip him of this,
and we shall point to no unheard of
experiance when we say-he would
rather die than live

NEWBORN Love FOR SoLDIEEs-lhe
leaders of the Democratic party. after
having opposed the war and voted to
withhold the right Of suffrage from the
brave defenders of their country. are now
manifestinc the utmost love for the sol
diers, and are even trying 20 make 1t ap-
pear that they are tho only true friends
of this class. This hypOcracy is however,
too apparent to deceive any one OF ordi-
nary intelligence. The brave men who
have spent the last four wears in the ser
vice OF their country, are not to be de
ceiyed in this way. They know who nave
been their friends during the war, and
