MOTHERS VACANT CHAIR.

/ go n little farther on in your house and
find the mothers chair. 1t is very apt to
be n rockingham. She had so many cares
and troubles to soothe. that it must have
rockers. / remember it well. 1t was an
old chair. and the rockers were almost worn
ont for / was the youngest, and the chair
had rocked the whole family. 1t n n
creaking noise as it moved, but there was
music in the sound. 1t was Just high
enough 10 allow us children to put our heads
into her lap. That was the bank where We
deposited all our hurts and worries. oh,
what n chair that was. 1t was different
from the fathers chair-it was entirely
different You ask me how now? lcannot
tell, but we all felt it was different. Perhaps
there was about this chair more gentleness,
more tenderness, more grief when we had
lone wrong. When we were Maynard,
father scolded, but mother cried. II WINS n
very wnkeful chair. In the sick day of
children, other chairs could not keep awake ;
That chair always kept awake-kept easily
awake. That chair knew all the old lula
bies. and all those wordless songs which
mother sing to their sick children-songs
in which all pity and compassion and sympa-
thetic influences are combined. That old
chair has stopped rocking for a good many
years. II may be set up in the loft or the gar
ret, but it holds n queenly power yet. When
at midnight you went into that grog-shop TO
get the Intoxicating draught, did you not
hear a voice that said, My son, why go in
there - and a louder than the boisterous
encore of the theatre, n voice saying, MY
son. what do You here 2" And when you
went into the house of sin, n voice saying,
4" What would your mother do if she knew
you were here ~ and you were provoked Mt
yourself, and you charged yourself with
superstition and fanaticism, and your head
got hot with your own thoughts, and yon
went home, and you went to bed, and no
sooner Ind you touched the bed than n voice
said, What a prayerless pillow !" Man
what is the matter This. You are too
near your mothers rocking-chair. "Oh,
pshaw " you say, there's nothing in that.
I'm 500 miles off from where i was born
Pm 5000 miles off from the Scotch kirk
whose bell was the first music l ever heard. y"
] cannot help TINT. You are too near your
mothers rocking-chair. "Oh ~ you say,
there can't be anything in that that chair
has been vacant a great while" l cannot
help that. 1t is all the mightier for that I;
II tx omnipotent, that vacant mothors-chair
It whispers. 1t speaks. 1t weeps. 1t
carols. 1t mourns. 1t prnys. 1t warns.
IL thundcrs. A young man went oil and
broke his mothers heart, and while he was
away from home his mother died, and the
telegraph brought the son, and he came into
the room where she lay, and looked upon
her face, and cried out, 30 mother, mother,
what your life could not do your death
shall effect. This moment l give my heart
TO God" And he kept his promise. An
other victory for the vacant chair. With
difference to your mother, the words of my
text were fulfilled: Tho shalt he missed,
because thy seat will be empty TT. pryyitc

HE coNQuERs WHO THINKS HE CAN.

"Where there's n will there's n way"
That is n truism which is but half under
stood. 1t is said that n contest once arose
between the ugliest and the handsomest
man in England for the hand of n lady of
worth and beauty. The homely man won
the prize. When Disraeli made his maiden
speech in the English parliament, he was
laughed down, but not discouraged. Know
ing what was in him, realizing well tho
power of the will, he declared, The time
will come when you will listen to me"
That day came, as all the world knows.
Obstacles which would alarm ordinary minds
he brushed as cobwebs, and pushed on to
the foremost position in English politics,
proving that he 'conquers who believes he
can. Faint heart never won fair lady"
or anything else worth winning. Young
man, am high, take counsel of wisdom,
and you are almost sure to win something
worth having. How many young men are
there whose wntchwords are "press on and
push through" Too many there are who
believe that that success comes more from
luck and favoritism than pluck. Many an
able and worthy man has been disabled i'll
the battle of life by trusting to outside sup
port, leaning upon friends or waiting for a
government appointment and neglecting the
power within.
1t would be interesting to know, if the
number could be discovered, how many
there are who use more than n tenth of the
brain and heart power they really possess.
Here and there We find one who moves the
world, but they are few and far between.

BANK PRESIDENTS.

In whom shall we put our trust2 What
bank president will not be arrested next.
Is il quite impossible for a man to be Mt the
head of an institution of this kind and pre-
serve his honor inviOlatc? 1t sometimes
seems as though our prisons arc to ovorrun
with %deliqucnt bank officers whose matur-
ity md old age nave been filed with weak
ness and wickedness. That men so situated
should be criminal is one of the saddest facts
in human nature. One of the most harrow
ing spectaclcs that the recent convictions
of this order of criminals nave presented,
is that of men taken in old age from all
that makes life sweet and thrust into n dun-
geon along with the vilest of the vile. Men
who, in former years, have been noted for
their noble qualities of head and heart
nave been thus Inundated, and the list
threatens to swell. 1t is in vain to look
upon such cases through the severe eyes of
Justice. A great deal of sympathy will
always be expended IN such cases, simply
because of the honorable and honored
career these men, at one period, led. But
moral falls like these are sad, not alone be-
cause of the domestic agony for which they
are responsible, but also on account of the
public distrust which they create When,
one after the other, the most honorable of
bank officers proves to be n broken reed,
who for years has been trcading the path
that leads TO the felon's dock, n universal
suspicion sets in, and n general cynicism is
set OF foot with regard to everybody and
everything.

A GLIMPSE OF SAN ANTONIO.

&C. c. c." writing from San Antonio to
the Boston Post, says:
ITO set forth my first impression of San
Antonio in n single brief statement, / would
say that San Antonio is the oldest, newest,
gravest, gayest makeup of n city on this
continent-as delightfully."- homogeneous ms

mean murder of American soldiers, n mon

HOW SAN FRANCISCO LOOKS.

The city is rs busy rs an ant-hil. Every
body is alive. and alive everywhere. Tn
climate has something to do with the elias.
ITCHY Of the people. 1t affects one like
champagne. The men move with vigor,
and the woanen nave an elasticity of steI
seldom seen even in Northern cities. The
popularity of the climate is one of the
most noticeable things of the place. As
they put it here, Strawberries are never
out of season, and furs are never packed"
In November you have the climate of May.
Green peas are on the table the year round,
and luscious grapes are as common as bar
berries in New England pasture. The
business part of San Francisco is level
wholly made, the circumference being filled
up or lovellcA. Strange enough, Chinatown
that foul blot is in the very heart OF the
business city. 4 block from the great
t~horauehfare Of trade, aud the promenade
of fashion and elegance, brings one into the
very centre of the Mongolian settlement.
Imagine $4,000 Chinese in possession OF
Boston. from State street to Essex, and from
Washington street to Fort Hill or III New
York, from the Aston House TO Canal street
on the West Side. The houses occupied by
the Chinese are =" cheap wooden dwellings
built in California; early days. When n
Chinaman comes into n block everybody
moves out. Filing one block he moves on
to next. He steadily invests his portion Of
the city, and moves on to the works of the
natives according to his necessity. He is
tucked in and shelyed everywhere. He
will make two stories out of one, and sleep
comfortably in quarters that would make n
dog howl. For these miserable lodgings
Johnny Chinaman pays a higher rent in
proportion than any resident of the city.
1t is not n marvel that the Chinese are in
this city, u it is n marvel that they should
not breed pestilence in the heart of trade.
They defy all sanitary regulations, and break
all sanitary laws. -" Btriagh's" Corre&Poa-

THE BIRTH OF LOVE.

Docs it require n long time, days, weeks,
months and years, to enable human beings
TO love one another? Does the human heart
slowly and suspiciously lay up one kind
thought after another till the measure is
full? Many gentle words and kindling
smiles pass from the lips, and yet the heart
remains cold and untouched, and willing to
lose sight Of and to forget the object Of it's
transitory tenderness. 1t mny be SO with
many, for the accidents of time teach differ
emit lessons, all equally necessary and whole
some, perhaps to different hearts; but,
before human nature has been sorely afflict.
ed, tried or deceived, its temper is open to
kindness and to Joy and, attracted by the
syinpathies of n common nature, why may
not those who are strangers to-day be friends
tomorrow Nor does the deepest afiliction
always close up the fountains of love in the
human soul. The saddest turn often in
Fudden restoration to the gay and joyful;
like light streaming in upon n prisoner
through the bars of his dungeon, are the
smiles of faces not yet bedimmed by grief
to the man of misery ; and he who hugs his
sorrow close to his soul will often at once
lay Town that rueful burden to which he
has long chung with infatuated despair, at
the sight of youth, beauty and innocence.
rejoicing before him in untamed, fearless,
and triumphant bliss. There are also often
sudden revelations of sympathy made be-
tween human beings by n word, n tone, n
look, or a smile truth is then conveyed
Suddenly and easily into their spirit, and
from that moment they rest assured of each
others affection and each others worth as
much as if they had been mutually known
for years. If there were not these strong
and prevailing tendencies in our nature,
the path of human life would be barren in
deed, or the friendships that spring up over
them would, in general, be sown by the
hand of interest or self-love. But nature
follows other processes; and love and
friendship, at first sight, often spring up,as
necessarily as flowers expand from bud into
blossom in the course of a few sunny and
dewy hours of one vernal morning.
