would be certainly necessary. and the
dissolution must be upon point invOlv-
ing the question of slavery. and no 9TH
er. The Union might then be reorgan-
lied on the fundamental principle of
emancipation. This object is vast in its
compass. awful in its prospects, sublime
and beautiful in its issue. A life devo-
ted to it would be nobly spent or sacri-
feed"
Such life was that Of John Brown.
He entered upon it when. as boy. ''du-
ring the war with England" seven years
before this colloquy of Adams with Cal
houn, he saw his little black playmate
starved and beaten, and with boyish ar
dor s'swore eternal war with slavery"
He ended it on the gallows in Virginia,
and men said he died as fool dieth.
But the method that be devised for
emancipation was that which. within
FIVE years after his death. the nation
adopted and carried to successful is
sue. 1t was the method of force, and
it proceeded gradually. as Brown had
foreseen that it must, from state to state,
and without overthrowing the general
government. There was. however. what
Adams had predicted, a temporary dis
solution of the onion. followed by
amendment and repeal as Brown had
desired. and then by that which both
Adams and Brown had longed for, re-
organization of the Union ION the fund
amental principle of emancipation.
Thus again in human history, as so ma
ny times before. did the divine paradox
reassert itself, and the stone which the
builders rejected became the head of the
corner Beside the Potomac. where the
founder of our republic lived and died,
crowned with honors, it was deereed that
the restorer of the republic should also
die by the hangman's hand. The work
that Washington left unfinished, Brown
came to complete; and Lincoln with his
proclamations. Grant and Sherman with
their armies, and Sumner with his con-
stitutional amendments. did little more
than follow in the path which Brown
had pointed cut. ''0f all the men who
were said te be my eotemporaries, "
wrote Concord poet, lit seemed to me
that John Brown was the only one who
had not died. meet him at every turn.

JOHN BROWN AND JOHN QUIN-
CY ADAMS.

Brown believed it possible to carry
on the sort of warfare he should wage
without necessarily interfering with the
civil government of Virginia or of the
Union. although the local functions of
government might be suspended through
fear, or absolutely superseded, for a
time, BY his own framework Of proyis-
ional government. In this forecast Of a
possible struggle for emancipation. he
was not so far as he might have been
from the expectations Of John Quincy
Adams on the same subject, In 1920.

ly very young, and the wooing has been
something that did not betoken much
depth Of tenderness. There are merce-
nary offers, too, that only awaken scorn
and hate in the woman wooed for money
and not for herself; but really to have
touched mans heart is something not
to be forgotten while she lives. AL
ways she remembers how his eyes looked
into hers; how, perhaps, he touched her
hand with his. and her heart ached when
he turned away without that which she
could not give him. She loves some one
else. Some other man has all the truth
of her soul-always has and always will
haye-but she cannot forget the one who
turned from her and went his way and
came no more. She is glad when she
hears of bis success, grieved when he
has suffered /; and when some day she
hears that he is married-she who has
herself been married long years perhaps /;
she who, at all events. would never have
married him-is she glad then? do
not know. A woman's heart is a very
strange thing. L do not believe she
knows herself Glad? Oh. yes; and
is his wife pretty and nice? And then
she says to herself that "he has quite
forgotten, and that, Of course. is best. !"

SING MORE.

Cultivate singing in the family. Be-
gin when the child is not yet three years
old. The songs and hymns your child
hood sang. bring them all back to your
memory and teach them to your little
ones mix them altogether. to meet the
similar moods. as in after life they come
over us so mysteriously sometimes.--
Many time and oft, in the very whirl
of business. in the sunshine and gaye-
ty of Fifth Avenue and amid the splen-
dor of the drive in Central Park, some
little thing wakes up the memories of
early youth--the old mill; the cool
spring; the shady tree by the little
school -hOuse--and the next instant We
almost see again the ruddy cheeks, the
smiling faces. and the merry eyes Of
sehoOl-mates, some gray-headed now,
most ''lie mouldering in the grave. -
And anon. 1.-The song my mother sang"
springs uubidden to the lips and sOOthes
and sweetens all these memories.
At other times, amid the crushing
mishaps of business, merry ditty of
the Olden time pops up its little head,
breaks in upon the ugly train of thought,
throws the mind into another chanDel !;
light breaks from behind the cloud in
the sky, and new courage is given to
US. The honest man goes singing to his
work and when the days labor is done,
his tools laid aside, and he is on his
way home, where wife and child, and
tidy table, and cherry freside await
him, and be cannot help but whistle or
sing. The burglar never sings. Moody
silence, net merry song, weighs down the
dishonest tradesman, the per6dious clerk,
the unfaithful servant, the perjured
partner.

FORGETTING DEATH.

Greatest of all mysteries is it that we
so readily forget, or seem to forget, that
we must die I; must fade away and be
seen no more by our companions, to soon
be forgotten by them. To-day we see a
friend gasping for little breath to pro-
long his stay with us few moments,
but the struggle is in vain he dies, We
drop few tears, there is a loss, vague
ness at our hearts that it seems can new
er be filed. Tomorrow the scene, the
separation is forgotten. the horrible
struggle, the pale and haggard face, are
things of the past, and We live on as
though nothing had happened.
Why is this ready fOrgetfulness? How
can we ever again enter into the strug-
gle of life. after once seeing that in a
few more days or years it will be as
though we had not been? How can we
60 back to our hopes and dreams, when
we know that all must end IN death !?
The greatest mind becomes blank the
sweetest beauty turns to a thing of hor-
ror, that even the worm respects not.
Even love itself goes out like candle.
Why, then, admire beauty? Why cul-
tiyate the mind? How can a mother
wish for offspring when she knows that
each new babe is but another born to
die? :?
Death is SO inevitable IL seems strange
that skeleton does not sit az our feasts,
walk our streets, chatter in our songs,
and weep at our weddings. Why do we
not sit in dust and ashes. bewailing our
bitter fate. lose all hope and refuse our
food that we may the sooner pass the
dreaded changer All. there Is our hope
In that one word--ehaBge Death is
not cessing TO be. 1t is change. All

how they may argue and rerson. II it
