NAMED about week-without attention,
medicine or food, except little food the
last evening. She was taken to the
Home, where every attention was given.
But neglect, and brutal treatment, had
done it's work In spite of all Of our eff
forts, she sank rapidly, and in few
days entered upon the realities of anoth-
or world. From the time she was re-
ceiyed, she steadily refused to disclose
who she was, what she was, or from
VIII ence she came. She asked for BIZ
ble, and the most Of her time was spent
in reading her Bible, or in prayer. She
often sent for the Matron, begged her to
pray for Fer, and although her physical
sufferings were intense, she seemed to
regard them as nothing, compared to the
misery of her soul. just at the close,
the Matron told her she was almost gone,
and begged that she might give her
mothers name. She uttered it and
then ceased to breathe Not knowing
last in reaching them, and from them
we gained the following concerning her.
She was from town about thirty miles
from Richmond, of respectable parent
age, and the child of chistian mother.
Her father, . respectable man, but not
christian. She was engaged to be mar
ried and the day fixed. to young man
ofwealth; butas it was asoertained was
in the habit of taking his glass. The
father, fearing the result Of such con-
nexion, induced her TO break the en-
gagement Soon after, she became very
much interested in q religious revival
in the neighborhood, sought and ap-

'What is your name, my child Z" The word

Robert Fenton, sir. But amt You going Il

have shouted aloud with delight, but suppress
ing his emotions, said quickly, suppose buy

"Go home? I guess would. Just you try

you know didn't tell her was going out, be-
cause she might have said no. Say, are you only
joking about it, thought"
"Come, and you shall see" and the old man

anchor of salvation. Where is your grand.
father 2" he said.
Somewhere in this very city. I just tell you
what it is, though my mother don't allow me to
say it, but my idea is he mast be . mean old
fellow to let my mother work so hard, when he's
got plenty of money" and Master Robert felt
vastly relieved after giving vent to his long con.
cealed opinion of his grandfather.
The sewing machine was soon purchased, and
the two followed it to its destination with hearts
filled to bursting with their different emotions.
As they neared small house on the outskirts
of the city, Robert suddenly darted forward. as
he caught glimpse of form which was just
then peering into the darkness.
''Oh mammal mamma! I've got it, have 4!
See it's coming" he calculated, incoherently, as
he caught his mothers hand.
''Oh, Robert my child, where have you been
I've been almost wild with fright since missed
you" and shei drew the child to her heart with
that convuslve movement peculiar to long and
habitual suffering.
In a few words Robert had told her all he had
done, until it struck him that he had left his
friend in the street, and with swiftness which
childhood alone could accomplish, in moments of
pleasure and excitement, be darted toward the
spot where he had left Mr.. Lawrence, who had
eagerly watched the meeting between mother
and child.
With an impatient, "Come, come want you
to see my mother" Robert dragged rather than
led his grandfather into the house, and face to
face, after separation of ten years, father and
daughter stood once more 1t was impossible to
describe the mingled feelings that actuated both,
but when Robert was made to understand that
he had brought his grandfather, his joy knew no
bounds. The removal to the great house was
not very difficult to accomplish, and subdued
pleasure took the place of despair that had hith-
erto reigned; but in after years Robert Fenton
declared that he had never known keener JOY
than when he believed he had secured, through
his own exertions, the much coveted sewing
machine.

NEXT TUESDAY.

We publish in another column a
communication relative to the much
disputed question rs TO the proper
day for the Inauguration of the State
officers. This subject has been recent
ly very fully discussed both in private
and official circles. The matter is sus-
ceptible of good argument on either
side, but the weight of the argument
appears to be decidedly with those
who hold that the first Tuesday after
the first Monday of January is the
date intended by the Constitution.
Such nov appear to be the opinion
| OF most OF those who have closely in
investigated the subject, including
Gov. Blasdel, Attorney General Clarke,
Secretary Noteware and other State
officers. Any other construction leads
to numberless absurdities, contradic-
lions, and inconvenience, some of
which arc briefly alluded to in the
article. The Constitution provides
that the Governor ..shall hold his of
flee for four years from the time OF his
installation, and until his successor
shall be qualified" Another section
provides that the first State officers
elected under the State organization
!" shall continue in office until the first
Tuesday after the first Monday of
January, 1867" etc. Governor Blasdel
was installed ON the said first Tues.
day after the first Monday of January,
1861" which fell, in that year, on the
sth. Does the installation date from
the day of the week, or the day of the
month? The fact that the Constitution
itself ignores the day of the month,
but expressly anne the day of the
weck-'.the first Tuesday after the
first Monday in Janrary"-is very
conclusive evidence oil the intent of
tho trainers Of the State Constitution.
"1ho first Tuesday after tue first
Monday in January" of this year falls
OH the Sd. We see no cause therefore
for any postponement of the ceremo-
MES beyond that date and we under
stand from good authority that such is
he view OF the principal State officials
md Of the members of the Legisla-
.ure, and that consequently the inau-
yuration will come Off mex Tuesday.
