of New England we're sagacous with the
wisdom Of humane men.
India never will know happiness or pros,
perity under British domination. What in
ireland is petty tyranny, in India IS the iron
heel. Sepoy rebellion is ever impending,
for the races Of lindostan bear nothing but
Il feeling Of malice and revenge toward their
conquerors. The native races never will be
reconcilcd to their rule and so long as the
British power in the East is supreme, we
shall not cease to hear of India fannes, Ia
dia rcbelions, India mis:'ulc.
Acep the Loaf Uu.;er V0lar ARIA.
The following Is copied from n New York
paper, printed in the year 1916, and is relat-
ed as a fact Similar gases often occur in
these days, that Il parent having given all
into the hands Of his children, is Obliged to
spend the remainder of his days in poverty
and want.
At this time there is living in Harlem an
old man, who relates the follow ng rcmarka-
bic sorry of HIMSELF He was possessed Of
a pretty good farm, with slaves, and every
thing necessary for his business, and had but
one child, son, who, having married, it
was agreed that the young couple should
live in the house with the parent, rs he was
y widowcr. Things went on exceedingly
well for some time. when the sun proposed
TO his parent that he should make over to
him his estate, promising to build new
house, and otherwise improve the FARM
| The father through persuasion, gave him Il
decd or gift oft, and everything belonging
to it.
After a few years. as the father grew old,
he grew little irctful and dissatisfied, while
the son, thinking he had nothing more to eX
pect from him, forgot his flial duty, and
used his aged father worse than he. did his
servants. The old man was no longer per-
mittcd to eat at the table with his sou and
wife, but compelled to take his meals in the
chimney corner, and was constantly i'll used
by them. The i'll usage to the old man was
ut length carried to such IL height that he
could no longer bear it, but left the house
and went to a neighbor and relation Of his,
declaring that it his friead could not help
him get his farm back again, lie should be
oblsc to come and live with him.
His friend answered that he might come
and live with him, and, if he would follow
his directions hc wou.d help him get bis
estate again
Take this ba, Of dollars, carry it to your
room at your son shut it we'll in your chest,
aud about the time you expect they will call
you down 10 dinner, shut year door, and
have all your dollars spread on the table in
the middle Of the room. When they call
you make a noise with them, by sweeping
them from the table into the bag again.
The bait took completely. The wife had
peepcd through the keyholc, aad saw the
dollars spread cat on the table, and told it
to her husband When the old man came
down they insisted Oh his sitting at the table
with them, and treated him with uncommon
ciyliiy.
The old man related to his friend what he
had done. who gave him directions what to
do il his son asked him for the money.
After few days the son discovered the
old man very bnsiIy engaged in counting out
his money, and at the next meal time asked
him what money he had been counting.
"Only some money have received for
the discharge of one of the bonds | had
standing out. expect more in a few days,
and fear shall be obliged to ethe farm
Of Mr.. " upon which have Il mort.
| Ia, 10 al, H., ~, l,n
and If the farm is sold, it viii fetch as much
as will discharge the mortgage
After few days the son told his father he
intended to build Il house on the farm, and
he would be glad if his father would let him
have the mcney.
"l'es, child all | have is coming to you.
intend giving you the bonds and mortgages
have, but think it will be best to have it
put altogether in new gift. | will get
neighbour !. 49, to call here and draw a
new one"
Accordingly, his friend and cousin, who
had devised The scheme, came TO the house,
and the son gave the father the deed, that
another might be drawn from it. When the
old man got hc instrument into his hands,
in the presence OF his friend he broke oif'thg
seal, aud committed the writing to the fire,
saying;
Burn, cursed instrument Of my folly and
misery and you, my dutltu children, as
this estate is all my own again, You mus
remove Immediately, unless you will be con
+ tent to be my tenants. have learned, by
sad experience, that il is best for father tc
hold the loaf under his own ARMAND thai
Que father can better maintain ten children
than ten children can a father
