- BeesfvSdby His wife.
From the Pittsbury DtspeSch.
Sixteen years ago q man who was
well known In this community then.
and who has q bro, her on the present
tpolice force, was living pleasantly. g
was supposed, with q Young wife and
two children. Suddenly he disappear-
led, and was not heard Of for many
years, when . faint rumor reached the
ears Of his wife that he was living in
California. But no communication
took place between him and his wife,
and she struggled on through ali these
years, working hard to support and
leducate her children, and by means OF
great sacrifices and rigid economy, she
finally found herself In the possession
OF . snug home on Hope street. with
her two boys sufficiently grown up TO
assist in her support.
A few days ago the long absent hus-
band, with bushy whiskers and sum
Drowned skin, az suddenly appeared at
the door Of his wife's residence a he
had LEFT home long years ago. He had
grown weary of his w~anderings, and
his heart doubtlessly yearned for the
true affection and devotion Of his
faithful wife, and the companionship
|of his children. When he came into
the room whore his wife was they Inn
mediately recognized each other, and
he rushed toward her ready tod be EN-.
braced with open arms, But she was

rather received him coldly and asked
him to be seated

would be glad to see me, and would
welcome me with tears Of low
"Sir,' said she, "when yop left me
without cause, alone with olfF helpless
children-to support, then and for long
years Of toll and hardship to earn their
daily bread, / shed my fears freely

engaged at my work the tears would
fall like rain, to think that the man
who had sworn to love, cherish and
seaport me, should have left me and
the children alono and destitute, and
never show by letter or otherwise,
that he thought or cared for us ;but tears
gave way to sterner feelings-feelinRs

dence, we have now a comfortable
home. You r welcome to stay here
and share it with us but you can new

the father, that you once were."
1t Is needless to state that the man
stayed there, that he is there to-day /;
that he finds that no place in all his
travels was half so comfortable az that
home which his thrifty and long-for-
saken wife had provided. His enjoy
nent of it, however, is and must be
forever married by the thought that be

dear-the confidence and affection of.
wife aud children. 1t is to be hoped
that his future conduct may be such as
to win them back again.

OF the careful work Of months, over a
work of this kind, by an able Commits

often anything but dispassionate action

ers will doubtless avail themselves of
the advice of the best legal talent in
the state, as well as the advice Oflead-
ing mel in all matters touching which
legislation is required. We would not

carefully revise the report, but on the
contrary would say that it is its i'm
perative duty to do SO, but in 50 doing
no change should be made in the re.
port. except for the most obvious rea-
sons. Ii the Commission shall labor
diligently, taking all necessary time
for q full examination of every ques-
ton that arises, and then make report,

ately review the same, avoiding the
