Growing Old.

In can not feel as many people do
about growing old.
To be sure, there are some that
make it but the wreck of failure of all
their mornings promise.
Was life meant to be a sunny gar
den with a prospect oflofty mountains
and majestic forests that all fade away
as we approach them, and the end Of
life to be q descent, from whose burn
ing suns and porching sands we can
only be rescued by death? I? God for
bid!
It seems to me that it should be like
a day in which the afternoon with its
mellow light is richer than the noon
day, and these little in comparison TO
the sunset which promises fair to-
morrow.
A green old age seems to me even
more beautiful than youth, which, with
all its liveliness and vigor and vitali-
ty, is crude and hard, is light and
thoughtless, is but the suggest on of
what may be; is to old age beautiful
old age, as rough sketch to an ex-
quisite picture.
think our life was meant to be
what we see in all nature, gradual
unfolding, ever richer and deeper and
purer. bringing US with each other
fading wear nearer our heavenly home.

An Old Story Revived.

An entertaining article entitled ITO
ny Weller's Widow" appears in the
Chester Pa. Republican, from which
the following is an extract:
Another very, eopftaBle widoA@swas
q young lady Of Washington, Pa.
She became engaged to a young man
named Robert--, in I846. Her
father, however, objected Ito this
match With QUE of his%clerks, aRd
when the young lady received tempt
ing proposal from wealthy suitor;
the paternal influence soon effected Q
marriage, despite the former engage
ment. In less than three months her
husband was killed by kick from a
horse. Robert was a second time
then suitor, but delayed the impor-
tant question until fifteen months had
elapsed, when, to his horror, she in
formed him that she was engaged
In three months thereafter she was
married. Two years elapsed, when
the married couple removed to Syrs-
cuse, New York, where among the
victims of the cholera, when the pesti-
lence swept that city, was the second.
Robert again sought her hand, and
when year had elapsed, was on the
eve Of declaration, when 10 he re-
ceived an invitation to her Wedding.
Her late husbands business was found
in such q state that to avoid immense
losses she married the surviving part
ner. Shortly after, she removed with
her third husband to Detroit, Michigan.
A few years elapsed, when herself and
husband were on the steamer that was
wrecked near Buffalo. The husband
perished, and the wife escaped solely
through the exertions of friend who
was on board. His gallantry inspired
such sentiments in her breast that she
married her brave preserver a few
months after her third widowhood.-
The happy pair removed to Pittsburg,
wnere her husband was engaged in
merchantile business. Thither Robert,
still cherishing his first love, followed
them. One day as he was passing the
husbands store he saw a terrible COM
motion Rushing in he beheld the
mangled corpse of that gentlemen
on the floor. A tier of rice, in being
hoisted to an upper story, had fallen
through the traps, killing him instant
ly. AnXiously Robert inquired if any
one had been sent to inform his wife,
and was told the book-keeper had
just gone. Robert started for AlIeghe-
ny City, where the deceased resided,
at the top of his speed. The book
keeper was just ahead of him, and,
from past experience, knowing the
virtue of prompt action, and apprs-
hending that the clerk had designs on
the widow, he ran for dear lite side by
side. The race continued until they
had reached Hand street bridge, when
the clerk was obliged to stop and pay
the tolls, while Robert, a commutor,
passed over without stopping. Reach
ing the house of the widow first, Rob
ert told the heart-rending news, and
in the same breath made a proposal
of marriage. He was accepted. True
to her promise, after year Of mourn
ing she became his wife. As all her
husbands had died wealthy, Robert
was comfortably fixed after all. This
case is a remarkable example of what
pluck and perseverance will do for q
man, while at the same time it teaches
a lesson on the danger of delay.

IN THE TUNNEL.

Riding up from Bangor,
, On the Pullman train,
From six weeks shooting
In the woods OF Maine.
Quite extensive whiskerS,
Beard, Moustache as well,
Sat student fellow"
Tall, and fine, and swell.
Empty seat behind him,
No one at his side;
To pleasant station
Now the train doth glide.
Enter aged couple,
Take the hinder seat;
Enter gentle maiden,
Beautiful, petite.
Blushingly she falters:
is this seat engaged?" 1s.....
(See the aged couple
Properly enraged) +
Student, quite ecstatic,
Sees her tickets through -
Thinks of the long tunnel
Knows what he will do.
So they sit and chatter,
While the cinders fly.
Till that student feller''
Gets one in his eye;
And the gentle maiden
Quickly turns about
May L, if you please, sir,
Try to get it Out?''
Happy student feller''
Feels dainty touch;
Hears a gentle whisper

In the tunnel quite,
And glorious darkness,
Black as Egypt's night.
Out into the daylight
Darts the Pullman train;
Students beaver ruf1led,
just the mereSt grain;
Maiden's hair is tumbled,
And there soon appeared
Cunning little earring
Caught in students beard.

RESP ONSE OF COLORED VOTERS
TO CHARLES SUMNER.

Inc coIored voters OF Oberlln, Ohio, in
mass convention on the evening of the
inst. adopted unanimously the following
preamble and resolutions.
WHEREAS, Senator Sumner, in a pub
lished letter has advised the cclored vo~
[ters Of the country to cast their ballots
with taa Democratic party therefore, ne
the colored citizens of Oberlin, in
mass meeting assembled, declare:
That while we dc not forget, but most
gratefully remember, the lifelong devo-
ton Of Charles Sumner to the cause of
human freedom and equality, We never.
| the less refuse to be led by him into the
ranks of that party which has bitterly
denounced and most stubbornly resisted
every step that has been taken toward
the liberation and Acknowledgement of eur
race.
g. That reposing unbounded confidence
in the integrity and patriotism of General
Grant, and taking his past as an index of
his future record, we pledge to him and
the party which supports him our earnest
endeavOrs to secuIe his election, believing
that in this contamination the interests of
our lace and the cause of good govern.
ment will be inestimably benefited.
8. That we earnestly urge the colored
men Of the United States to be faithful in
their allegiance to the Republican party,
which party has secured them every right
that they now enjoy, and to which we
| alone look for protection in the future,
and we declare our hope, and firmly ex'
press it as our opinion, that the trium
plant election Of Grant and Wilson in
November will be to us the harbinger of
protection, and to our land the guaranty
of peace and prosperity.
At q meeting of the colorcd citizens Of
Toledo, Ohio, on the evening Of the 9Th
inst, the following preamble and resolu-
items were unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, The Hon. Charles Sumner
has addressed letter to the colored voters
OF the United States, advising them to
support Horace Greeley for the Presidency
Of the United States therefore,
Re8ol0ed By the c0Zored 0oters OF Toledo,
That we will always remember the labors
Of Charles Sumner for our liberation and
entranchisement, and will teach our cnil.
dren to remember him as one OF the best
champions of human liberty.
Resol0ed, That we feel confident that
his advice is i'll timed, unwise, delusive,
and detrimental to the best Interests OF
every colored American citizen.
Re8olg6d, That we will not follow his
advice and abandon the Republican ship,
nor will we forsake the commander of the
noble vessel of freedom, but will use all
honorable means to secure the reelection
Of President Grant.
There is more good sense in each of
these resolutions than there is in Summers
long letter. Sumner is finding that it is
hard to kick against the pricks.
