MOTHER.
BY JOHN B. ssnrH.

Mother! Be hallowed forever that name
with its sweetness, its goodness, and heavenly
fame; ~
heard,
Conservation ennobles the magical word.
Every heart has story-a charm Of it's own
Ere the sweetness Of childhood embittsred had
When the first trembling steps of that infantile
ventured timidly forth on the worlds noisy
stage.
And that heart loves to soften as its retrospect
Makes Mother the Angel who hallowed those
days
Whose breath glowed with praysr--whOse eyes
ever shOne,
With light pure as that which illumines the
throne.
When the impulse of youth leads reason astray,
And the soul yet untutored goes wandrlns
away.
From the landmarks of right to the ambush of
sin
Where vice the despoiler, tempts innocence in.
Then the voice of mother, majestic in love,
Turns the erriDg ones eye to the glories above
And God has no advocate purer to WELD,
A heavens vicegerent, Its invincible shield.
OH Mother, when bright hopes and earths idol
fee
The soul in its sadness flies swiftly to thee; .
On thy bosom the heart--spite its throbbings OF
pain,
Looks hopefully up from its anguish again.
This worlds fierce battle and its unceasing
fray,
Takes the souls maiden freshness and vigor
away;
But thy children, when footsore and painting for
Find sweet peaceful pillow on thy unselfsh
breast
OH pity that heart so forsaken, ferlorn,
Whose world. weary throbbing when hopelessly
born,
Is denied the sweet peace Of that heaven of rest
That altar of refugee mothers sweet breast.
This earth with its struggles, its sorrows and
Owns no love half so true half faithful as hers
And the heart when environed with clouds OF
despair,
Finds no influence with heaY'n so strong as her
prayer.
When the friendships of man prove phantoms
SO vain,
That the eve of the trusting disdains them again;
Wv -
sky.
And the fond aspirations OF passion all die
Then all trembling with fear at the worlds sel,
fish lust,
The soul gives TO Mother" its immutable trust;
And she opens her arms, while their sweet
wooings prove,
That though sorrows be great the Creators her
love.
Then hallowed on earth and in heaven the same,
CAnd from heaven its unutterable tenderness
cameo
Be the pure name Of Mother-immortal with art,
To jealousy guard the password to the heart.
Let us live for ON Mothers-tis noble to kneel
At their feet in devotion, and righteOusly feel
That our tenderness chased of their griefs and
their tears.
When age streak d their heads with the silver Of
years.
Let us worship our Mothers, and ever condemn
The passion that cOvets our affections from them;
Let us cherish their counsels-their teachings
revere,
While God in his kindness bless US with them
here.

View of Reciprocity from Q Provincial
Standpoint -,

The St. John Globe copies large portion
OF a recent article of ours on the termination
of the Reciprocity Treaty. and to the sugges-
ton that for tie beueft Of beth countries, a
treaty should be entered iuto that shell be in
fact as welt as in name reciprocal. It says:
Now, this il al fair enough, and, we are
glad to1see that many, We might almost say,
tnree-fouItis OF the American papers that We
receive, take a similar view to that quoted
above. They al claim that Reciprocity should
be in fact what it is in name. We think their
sincerity ought to be put to the test. The
best way to do this is to propose to them
complete Reciprocity of trade in articles, the
manufacture and the natural produce of the
country. Let US remove every restriction to
their free trade with this country, let us give
70 them tae privilege Of participating in all
our fisheries, without any reservation whatey-
er; let US, III fact, put them upon the same
footing in every matter OF trade, with our cit
liens. All that we will demand in return for
this is a similar reciprocity, in regard to our
shlps, our trade, aud our manufactures. It
seems to us that this is true reciprocity. q Az 4
Here is an object for our statesmen to strive 4
after. It is argued that great benefits will re- l
suit from our unrest ricted trade with four 4
millions of people-from whom, by tue way,
we now buy very little, and to whom we sell
scarcely anything-but much greater benefits,
according to the same line of argument, ought
TO result from unrestricted intercourse with
thlrty millions. II our manufacturers do not
tear composition with four millions they can
scarcely fear it with thirty millions. Then,
conceive the great benefits that would result
to US from our securing the right to place our
shlps In competition with those of the United
States, and to navigate the coasting and in
ternal waters Of that country. d "a s0f
gca We, perhaps, may, be told that England
would never consent to such an arrangement
II she would not, why not? Pfofessedly, her
policy is q free trade one; and, il a part of
the empire can enjoy the boon, why pre-
vent 1t? At any rate, we might make the
attempt. She has conceded to us-what we |
have an undoubted right ia enjoy self gov |
ernment, and she would scarcely step in to
prevent US enjoying whatever benefits might |
accrue from an extended Intercourse with |
our neighbours. 5ag 81, ~. 1sl.. 81 |
z 1t appears tolus that the present position |
of the Reciprocity Treaty is strong arpu- |
ment against a hasty Confederation AS the |
paper above quoted says, Canada West must /
have treaty. Yes, and SO must Montreal |
and the surrounding country. If we Con |
federats, Canada the overwhelming power
in the Coniederation-wiIl just make w6atev- I
er use OF the Lower Provinces she finds ad-
yisable in order to secure her own ends. /
These Provinces do not want the Treaty
halt as bad as she does. The present Trea-
ty does not benefit us half as much as it
benefits her. She would readily sacrifice our |
interests to secure her own. t4s,s,s s,9fia
