influence of q Mothers IT,.

History records no more suggestive in.
cident than the memorable termination
of the siege Of Rome by Coriolanus No
child ever perused the narrative without
extraordinary emotion. There is some-
thing in it which appeals with an effect
that may not be resisted to the heart and
the consciousness of all. Who has not
in imagination dwelt upon the scene? A
stout and sturdy warrior, steeled by years
of active military services against the
pitiful appeals of suffering humanity
the victim of fierce and ungovernable
passions-smarting under a keen sense
of accumulated wrong-consecrates the
energies of his life to the avenging OF his
injury, and exiled from the city. whose
annals his military proves has adorned,
sallies forth, the Infatuated minister OF
wrath. Sacrificing all higher and emo
bling aspirations sullying forever the
hard-earned laurels of the victor Of Corr.

at the realization Of her seemingly inev-
table doom, Rome trembles before him.
With humbled pride, her naughty sena-
tors, in solemn procession, come to sue
for mercy. Disdainfully repulsed, they
dispatched the minister of their religion
to WOO with the hopes Of future bliss and
intimidate with the prospect of a coming
retribution. But all in vain. Unrelent-
ing, and unmoved by every appeal, the
stern veteran relaxes not his purpose.
Then come the mothers tears. Bending
under the weight of years-sustained by
| a holy hope-the aged matron sailed
forth. Who can paint the scene? Who
| may realize the meeting? In the most
insensate soul there are treasured asso-
Citations and memories which, forgotten
amid the wild tumult of angry passion,
awaken at the whisper Of a mothers
name to beat in every pulsation of the
heart and thrill through every fibre OF
the frame. There is sentiment of holy
veneration in the soul of the child to its
mother, which he must sound the lowest
depths of infancy who may forget or dis
regard. With streaming eyes and an
guished heart the Roman mother kneefs
to plead with her traitor son. Appealing
to him by all the hallowed memories Of
his uncorrupted boyhood, and chiding

AN ExrRAoRp1NARy feat of bu.

AN EXTRAORDINARY feat OF nu-
man endurance commenced on the
the 23d of June in New York city.
1t is nothing less than an attempt at
voluntary abstinence from all food
during continuous period of forty
days and forty nights. This task
will be begun by DR.. 81. S. Tan
ner, of Minneapolis, Minnesota, at
Clarendon hall. The large hall will
be cleared of everything except a
small cot-bed, on which the doctor
will repose at night, and a constant
watch will be kept night and day by
physicians who have undertaken that
task in the interest of science. DR..
Tanner will take no food of any
description, he will not be allowed
to use tobacco or any other narcotic
or stimulant, but he will be at lib
erty to use any quantity of pure
Croton water that he may desire.
If he succeeds in accomplishing the
feat under the scrutiny of medical
men, he will justly be regarded as
one Of the wonders of the present
age.
