PRESIDENT HAYES had the audaci-

the big majority by which il passed
both Houses Of Congress, just to prove
that he could he consistent, IL not
wise. The veto was a rehash Of his
old views on the subject and contained
not one idea that had the semblance Of
newnes. When the veto reached the
House, Hon. A. H. Stephens moved
to take up the bill at once. which was
agreed to, and a vote taken immedi-
ately. The result was 1856 for, and
73 against the bill. In the Senate the
same haste was manifested, and the
hill went through on a vote Of 46 to

of both Houses to show Hayes what

The Legislature has done onepraise'
worthy act, at least. Speaker E. W.
Turner's bill, providing that no per
son shall carry deadly weapon con-
cealed, has passed both houses by a
large majority, and the cowardly muir
derer and assassin must hereafter wear
their artillery, II they wear II at-all,
on tho outside Of their clothing. There
is no exemption to the law, and the
Courts have no discretion when a man
is found guilty, but to send him to
jail for not less than ten nor more
than fifty days, and fine him not less
than $50 nor more than 500. The
law is most excellent one, and will,
no doubt, reduce the number of muir
ders in the dark and bloody ground to
number somewhere in the pale Of
civilization. Thank God, the days Of
the fiend who carries his little pistol
hid under his coat tail is at an end.

THE DEVOTED MOTHERS.

Many a poor mother in an humble cot,
with no money or position, has struggled
hard to feed and clothe her little ones, to
train them to be an honor to their country
and a blessing to the world. Most of our
useful, prominent men came from such
homes. Our churchyards are full of such
sleeping mothers, whose hands are folded
over their breasts. No worldly eye ever
saw the records of their lives; only God
and the angels. No tall monuments and
high-sounding epitaphs mark their resting
places.
What a responsibility rests upon the
mothers of this country Life is too short
to be spent in accommodating the things of
this world that must perish. The children
do not stay with us long enough to permit
us to waste our hours in the pursuit of fash
ion and gaiety. What we sow now we shall
reap hereafter. God gives to all mothers
grace and strength to fulfil their duties
Alright, that their influence for good may
be felt from generation to generation.

A MiSER.

Lord Barco, an ancestor of the Earl
of Fife, was remarkable for practising
that celebrated rule: Get all you can,
and keep all you can get" One day,
walking down the avenue from his
house, he saw a farthing lying at his
feet, which he carefully cleaned. A
beggar passing at the same time en-
treated his lordship would give him the
farthing, saying it was not worth
nobleman's attention. Fin farthing

ship, and carefully put the coin ln hls
breeches pocket. In addition 20 being
his own farthing finder, his lordshlp
was his own factor and rent collector.
A tenant who called upon him to paA
his rent happened to be deticienta Earth

farthing. When the business was adj

ANCIENT HOSPITALITY.

the hospitality of that period often
reached excess, was by no means UNI
likely. 1t is current story in TeviOt
dale, that in the house of an ancient
family of distinction, much addicted to
the Presbyterian cause, Bible was al
ways put into the sleeping apartment of
the guests, along with bottle of strong
ale. On one occasion there was a meet

castle. all of whom were invited to din

the fashion of the times seven of the rev

occasions of extended hospitality. The
butler took care that the divines We're
