We take the following extract from
the Life Of Washington by Edward
Everett: 1T may be mentioned as a
somewhat striking fact, and one, !
believe, not hithe.to alverted to-
that the families of Washington and
nklin-the former the great lead
er Of the American Revolution, the
latter not second to any Of his patriot~
jc associates-were established IN the
same central county of Northampton,
and within few miles of each other;
the Washlnstons, at Brington and
SulsraYe, belonging to the landed
gentry ef the country, and Ia the
great civil war supporting the royal
s!le; the Frankiirs at the village Of
Ecton, living en- the produce OF a
farm of thirty acres, and the earn
ings Of their trade at least, and the
father and uncle OF Benjamin Frank
lin among the number-tAe principles
of non -coufornists. Their respective
emigrations, germs Of great events in
history, took place that of John
Washington, the great grandfather OF
George, in 1857, to loyal Virginia,
that of Josiah Franklin, the father Of
Benjamin, about the year 1855, to the
metropolis of puritan New England.

A SOUTHERN SPRING SONG.

THE hlithesome Spring is coming,
And the mellow suni. rht falls
Where the golden Ices are hEmming
in their hnneysuckle halls
Where tie couxing little son5 birds
Woo their mates amid the trees,
Aud the music Of their love-words a.
Pass like echoes on the breeze.
Young flowers with dew are laden
Tel-tale rcicts Of the sigho
Of sone little fairy maiden
Who was courtcd meath the skies,
When mortal folks were sleeping,
And, though leafy bower and dell,
Sly, merry stars were rccping-
Watches who will never tell.
Skies Of Summer mny be brighter,
FAirer flowers beneath them grow,
And its breezy touch be lighter
Than the s'priAg winds Vi igorous blow
But Spring time kills the cold days,
Decks tnc pfadows and the bowers
And, when dying, in its old DAYS,
Leaves us summer and its flowers.
