A Little Boys First Poem.

Samuel Longfellow, who has writ
ten a charming book about his cele-
brated brother, Henry W. Longfel-
low, relates an interesting story about
the first verses of the poet, that were
published when he was q boy OF thir-
teen.
Mr.. Longfellow says that the "boy's
first printed verses were to him, at
least, OF vast interest. He recalled,
in after years, the tremblngs and
misgivings of heart with which he
ran down to Mr.. Shirley's printing
office, at the foot Of exchange street.
and cautiously slipped his manuscript
into the letter box. The evening be-
fore the publication Of the paper he
went again and stood shivering in
the November air, casting many o
glance at tho window as they trem-
bled with the jar Of ink balls and the
press, afraid to venture in. No one
but his sister, the receiver OF all his
condolences, had been let into his Sc
cret, and she shared with him the
excited expectation with which the
appearance Of the paper was looked
for the next morning.
ave may imagine the impatience
with which they watched the unfold
ing of the damp sheet in their fathers
methodical hands, and the rising va
por as he held it before the wood
fire to dry. Slowly he read the pa
per, and said nothing, perhaps saw
nothing of the verses; and the chill
dren kept their secret. But when
they could get the paper the poem
was there! Inexpressible was the
boys delight and innumerable the
times he read and re.read his per-
formance, each time with increasing
satisfaction.
''In the evening he went to visit at
the house of Judge Mellen, his fathers
friend. In the circle gathered about
the fire the talk turned upon the
poetry. The Judge took up the
mornings Gazette Did you see the
piece in to-day's paper? Very stiff
remarkably stiff Moreover, it is all
borrowed, every word Of it.
"The boys heart shrunk within
him, and he would gladly have sunk
through the floor He got out OF the
house as soon as possible without be-
traying himself. Shall we blame him
that there were tears on his pillow
that night? 1t was his first encoun-
ter with the critic.
This boy, as all our young readers
know, afterward becamea q great poet.
Although he was often severely criti-
cised, he never became discouraged.
When he died few years ago, he
was greatly beloved by the readers
of his poetry throughout the civilized
world. .--Ex.

CHRISTIAN BROTHERHOOD.

lat tho recent annual Unitarian festival
at Boston, Rev. James Freeman Clarke
read tho following poem;l
Friends, who have gathered thus from far
and near,
To pass an hour in glad communion here,
Ye who bring memories Of long vanished
years,
Crowded with labors, pleasures. struggles,
tears,
And ye whose brave hearts given to God
and truth
Look out ON life with oil the hope OF youth,
Listen moment 10 your brothers rhymes,
Which call up shadows from tho earlier
times.
Once, at this festival of love and prayer.
John Quincy Adams occupied the chair.
Rising, with feeble voice and trembling
tread,
Brothers and sisters!" were the words he
said.
brothers and sisters, welcome one and all,
Welcome to this fraternal feast and hall.
And, when his loving words had reached
their close,
He called on Father Taylor, who arose
And stood a moment, thoughtfully ponder
ing,
Then said: "Mine eyes have seen wond-
rous thing.
A wondrous thing tonight mine ears have
heard.
I listen to the voice whose slightest word
Once shook the Senate. l have seen the
hand
Which ruled the forces of this mighty land,
Welded its armies, sent its navies forth
To take the stars and stripes around the
earth.
That voice said, Brothers, SISTERS" ton
derly,
That hand was stretched to welcome you
and me."'
Yes: it is true. Our great religion brings
All of its children to be priests and kings.
1t knows no rank, no title, but would see
All men as brethren in its family.
No laity, no priesthood. at our feasts,
No presidents, nor governors nor priests.
This is the charm, the sweetness of this
hour.
This is the summer fragrance of our flower,
This the religion, loving, tender, broad,
Which makes us one in Christ and one in
God.
I like the Quakers, like "Friend John,
Friend James"
l think, with them, all titles empty names.
1 read my Bible, and could never see
1t spoke of 'Reverand Paul. or John,
DID,"
fancy can hear their calm rebuke,
If they had heard us say ''St. Mark, "st.
Luke"
These are sight matters; but the weightier
thought
Which rises to the region of 81 ought"
Which sees the eternal Light, the immortal
Truth,
Strengthens our manhood and renews oul
youth
Let these 90 with us, and we thon Shall be
Brothers aud sisters" through eternity.

All joking aside, the President is
doing thoroughly sensible thing in
getting a wife, and the great major
ity Of the American people congratu-
late him to-day both on his good
sense and happiness. The White
House needs a mistress, and Cleye-
land needs a helpmeet to assist him
in multitudinous duties outside Of
the official routine which the Chief
Executive must perform, while at
the same time the sympathy and
companionship of wife are needed
to make any mans life complete-and
certainly that man who is worried
and distracted by public business
needs them most Of all. Miss Fol
som, from all accounts. is a thorough
American, Of thorough good sense,
and in her the President will find
that element which has been lacking
thus far in his life Let Us wish thai
their family life may be summed up

DR.. j. B. Cranfill, is good speaker,

J. P. Bridges, of the Luling Signal,
is one of the wittiest and readiest
members of the association.
Judge Norton would attract atten-
ton anywhere by his length of hair

Hamilton Stuart, the estate Press

tremely solicitous for the welfare of

In the Sick Room.

As convalescent makes moro rapid
strides toward recovery, the watch
ful care that during severe illness sur
rounded the sick room is apt to be
too suddenly relaxed. The urgent
necessity for close vigilance is re-
moved, and the reaction from strict
quarantine is prone to lead to too
little regard for the still weakened
nerves Of the whilom sufferer. AL
though pleasant company and CHEEKY
conversation are beneficial, over ex-
citement and weariness should be
guarded against, especially at meal
times. Many dainty repast has
been spoiled for an invalid by having
it's consumption ''assisted at by sew
eral well meaning friends or relatives.
Nothing Injuries the appetite sooner
than for the eater to be the center Of
observation of even the most kindly
eyes. Not that the invalid should be
compelled to take his meals alone.
There is always some one, mother,
wife or sister, who can be ut hand to
supply deficiencies and to keep up
lively chat that will brighten rather
than fatigue her charge.
Above all, let distressing topics be
stunned. A little worry
that appears O mere bagatelle to
sound mind in II sound body, swells
to mammoth proportions when it is
turned over and over in the tagging
brain of one shut in with his own
thoughts from the outer world

The Presidents marriage recalls
the following fatherly sentiment
which somehow got into his first an
nual message to Congress: The
fathers of our families are the best
citizens of the Republic. Wife and
children are the sources Of patriotism,
and conjugal and parental affection
beget devotion to the country, Com
ing from an old bachelor, this had an
air of irony about it, but it is all
right now since he has gone and done
it himself May his future messages
never breathe 4 different sentiment.
