rwOwAsTED LIVES.

Truth stranger than fiction could be
told Of the life of the late Mrs. o., one
Of the most eccentric characters OF the
Southwest, From the administration OF
Washington to that OF Van Buren, she
was an hsbituate of the capital. Jeffer-
son. Randolph and Madison were her
contemporaries. Her youth was spent
on the shores Of tho Ohio when PittsburR
was trading-fort. She held during her
life all of her husband q great wealth. The
heir-his nsphew--who was to receive
the property at her death. when be came
of age refused to learn any profession or
trade. as Mrs. G. was then fifty and in
firm in health, she would not give him
penny, although she was childish, living
alone on her plantations, surrounded
only by slaves.
.'You better 60 to work, George" she
would say to him. "Ill walk over your
grave yet"
He waited twenty, thirty. forty years.
He was o pauper, but the woman's
shoes we're not ready for him.
She made preparation apparently to
live for ever. Every year she bought the
costliest dresses and laces, made in the
prevailing fashion. and stored them
away in her great solitary chambers
The heir, O feeble old man, died at last
in the almshouse. She lived on.
In her hundred and first year she was
prevailed upon to make her will. After
disposng of various properties. the law
yer reminded her of the Bogg farms,
which she had Inherited from her father.
"Thsy are mine." she said quietly. and
continued dsvising her husbands e.
tates.
THAT is ALL" she said at length, hold
ing ont her hand for the pin.
"Bat you have not left the Bogg
farms to anybody"
"Sir. they are mine forever" cried
the dying woman.
She fingered for another year. in which
her former slaves plundered her OF oil
her boarded treasures, and died at last
poorer in friends, in spirit, in the ren
riches of life. than even her dead paupel
heir.
What sermon on effeminacy, pride
and covetousness could preach such
lesson as these two lives?
