Andren jackson and HIs Mother.

Mr.. W. H. Sparks, Of Georgia, in
his autobiography, entitled the The
Memories of Fifty Years, lately pub
lished by ClaXtOn, Rensen & Haffel-
finger, gives the following account Of
Andrew JacksOn's departure for Ten
nessee, as related to him by the Presi-
dent himself. His widowed mother
and he had been residing for some
time in the neighbOrhOOd of Green's
boro', North Carolina.
"I had,n said he, contemplated
this step for several months, and had
made my arrangements to do so, and
at length had obtained my mothers
consent to it. All my worldly goods
were few dollars in my purse, some
clothes in my saddle bags q pretty
good horse, saddle and bride. The
country to which l was going was
comparatively a wilderness, and the
trip long one. beset with many diff
culties, especially from the Indians
| felt, and so did my mother, that we
were parting forever. L knew she
would not recall her promise; there
was too much spunk in her for that,
and that caused me to linger day or
two longer than 1 had intended, but
the time came for the painful parting.
My mother was little, dumpy, red
headed Irish woman. well mother
am ready to leave and 1 must say
farewell" She took my hand and
pressing it said farewell and her
emotion choked her.
"Kissing at meetings and partings
in that day was not so common as
now. 1 turned from her and walked
rapidly to my horse.
LAS 1 was mounting him, she came
out of the cabin, wiping her eyes with
her apron, and came to the getting
over place at the fence. Andy said
she (she always called me Andy, )'yOu
are going to q new country, and among
a rough people; you will have to de-
pend on yourself and cut your way
through the world; have nothing
to give you hut a mothers advice
Never tell lie, nor take what is not
your own, nor sue anybody for SIAN
der or assault and battery dlICdys set
| tie them cases yourself? / promised
/ and l have tried to keep that promise
I rode Off some two hundred yards tC
a turn in the path, and looked back
She was still standing at the fence
1 wiping her eyes. / never saw he
after that ~
Mr.. Sparks adds that "those whit
knew him best will testify to his fideli
ty to the last promise made to hi
mother"

THE CHRONICLE.
For the CHROSICLE.
THE LITTLE ORPHAN.

II was on a winter night.
A storm was raging Wild,
As down a dark and lonely street,
There walked a little child.
Her tiny hands were clasped,
As she raised her voice in prayer,
Saving, Father take pity on me,
On! watch me with thy care
lam so cold and hungry
Oh! give me Of thy store;
Please Father hear my prayer,
Again she did implore.
But The only answer that she heard,
In answer 10 her cry,
Was the bowling Of the wind
As 1t gruffiy passed her by.
She was an orphan. left TO roam
This cruel world alone;
No father, no kind mother,
Noplaee 10 call her home.
Her mother had that very day,
To heaven wound her night,
And now beneath the cruel earth,
Her form was hid from sight.
The tears roll down her cheeks,
As she WRnders on alone,
She thinks OF better days,
Other once bright, happy home
Till she feels so very sleepy.
And warmer seems 10 grow,
Al q at last she sinks TO rest
Upon the soft, white snow.
Her little prayer is answered;
She feels the cold no more;
She has gone TO meet her mother
on n brighter, better shore.
The Snow-nakes fall andeOver.
Her faultleSs little form
she sleeps beneath the MANTLE
Unmindful OF the storm.

The Mrsterr Of the Calendar

The year 1871 has fifty-three Sun
days, but only fifty two weeks. No
where during the year does Sunday
come oftener than once in seven days.
The first week in the year begins
with Sunday, and so do all the other
weeks. This may appear mysterious
at first, but on consulting the calen-
dars for 1871 and 1872 it will be seen
that the last week of 1871 begins with
Sunday and a Sunday following il.
As two Sundays cannot come tOgeth-
er, the year 1872 begins on Monday,
and it being Leap Year, Sunday will
occur once in seven days thereafter.
The arrangement will place Sundays
at the ends Of the week instead of the
beginning.

Nav York, April q, EveniSg.-Specula-
ton on the stock exchange to day Was char
acteriked by less excitement than for
several days past, and while the fluctuations
were frequent, they wero less violent and
confined within narrower limits. The Usr.
ket at times was very feveEish and unset
tied. The fright is gradually passing awsy,
and the heavy sellers Of stocks yesterday
were buyers to-day. It will take several
days for the market to become settled and
for the recent prominent sellers Of stocks to
buy them back; when this is accomplished
the market is likely to again resume its old
bullish tone.
