Beside the evening hearth they talk Of US and
ours no more,
oh, sad and strange. and hard II seems, there are
20 few to greet,
As slow and silently we trace the winding village
street
Yet half forgotten as we stand, amid the haunt'
of youth.
The golden past asserts for US It's strength ol
love and truth,
Though other pathways veo US now, and othei
boons may bless
The home that chilihood's halo, crowned claims
of separate Tenderness,

THE WAIES or SOCIETY.


Here is Il brief record of the zeal OF
statistician most suggestive Of the
evils which result from the usual in
difference to the waits of society
"Somo of the most curious and re-
markable criminal statistics ever OBJ
tanned have been given to the public
by DR.. Harris, of New York. His at.
tention was called, some time since, TO
a county on the upper Hudson, which
showed remarkable proportion Of
crime and poverty to the whole popu-
lation-4S0 Of its 10000 inhabitants
being in the almshouse--and, upon
looking into the records little, he
found certain names continually ap-
pearing. Becoming interested in the
subject. he concluded to search tho
genealogies of these families, and, after
a thorough investigation, he discovered
that from young girl named "Mar-
garct," who was left adrift, nobody
remembers how, in a village of tho
county, seventy years ago, and, In the
absence Of an almshouse, was left 10
grow up as best she could-have de-
scended two hundred criminals. AS
an illustration of this remarkable
record, in one single generation of her
unhappy life there were twenty chill
dren; Of these, three died in infancy,
and seventeen survived to maturity
OF the seventeen, ninc served in the
State prisons for high crimes an aggrc-
gate term of fifty years, while the
others were frequent inmates Of jalls,
penitentiaries and almshouscs. The
whole number of this girls descend
ants, through six generations, is nine
hundred, and besides the two hundred
who are on record as criminals, large
number have been idiots, imbcciles,
drunkards, lunatics, prostitutes and
paupers. A stronger argument for
treatment Of pauper children than
these figures could hardly be found."-
