BANCROFT, THE HISTORIAN.

Thoughts Suggested by His Reported Re
tirement From Active Labor.
The announcement that failing
mental facu'ti have at last compelled
Mr.. George Bancroft definitely to aban-
don his literary labors is not altogether
unexpected, and yet the great his
torian's fellow citizens will find 1t q
difficult task to accustOm themselves
to the thought that his days OF activity
are over. 1t is no exaggeratiOn to put
Mr.. Bancroft down as one of the most
remarkable men whom the New World
has produced. His career will be re-
membered not more for its length and
the high quality OF its achievements
than for its versatility. His history
of the United States is the work with
which his name will always be indis-
solubly connected. and it Is a labor
which, If it stood alone, would shed
luster on a lifetime. But Mr.. Ban
croft was more than historian. For
many years he had no small part IN
the making OF the history OF his
country. His management OF the Navy
Department. though brief, was bril-
liant, for during that time he earned
the distinction OF founder Of the Naval
Academy. Subsequently, as American
representative at the courts OF En-
gland and Germany, he fulfilled a,mos.
the ideal of an American diP.Ouatist,
and his skillful hand achieved some OF
the most notable successes III our dip
lomatic annals. His old age has been
a serene and useful one. Fortunately
for his country. he has been enabled
to continue his historical labOrs with
unflagging zeal and accuracy long after
the time when years dim the vision
and cloud the judgment OF most NOR,
tails. And if at last the hour has come
when he must lay aside his pen per
manently, his fellOw-citizens have good
cause for the profouudest satisfaction
in his achievements and gratitude that
he has been enabled to give his natiyc
land a full half-century of loyal ana
honorable service.-BOstOn Journal

his brittle slate are of the very sub

al ruby. the mellow topaz and the rich
sapphire are evolved; but such Is the
fact. They are among the most beau

tails of a silaceous earth-mere bits OF

turks within the sapphire is the chem

red ruby owes its brightness and hue
to a mingling of chronic acid with the

But the opal is not the only pre-

OUR GRANDMOTHER.

Heed carefully her every want.
And breathe prayer above her;
The last of our ancestral line,
We could not help but love her,
In social hours at festal board
Be hers the place of honor;
Give her the contest easy-chafr
Beside the chimney-corner.
IL may be that we sometimes tire
OF all her many ailings;
Some times perhaps impatienuy
We note her little fsilings.
Dear souli God knows We never mean
BY willfui act to wound her!
God knows our hearts divinest links
Are closely twined around her!
We look at her, and tender thoughts,
Like pleasant dreams, steal DER us
Thoughts of time when human LIE
Lay all untried before US.
How often then her loving care
Made smooth each line OF sorrow!
How oft her lips have whispered hope
or brighter hours tomorrow.
And while our childish griefs she sootheds
By some predestined treasure,
Her bright smiles chased away our tears
And heightened every pleasure.
And now, thank God. The gracious task
! Unto our lives is given,
With loving care and gentle words,
To smooth her path toward Heaven.
Beside Deaths silent stream she sits,
Its mist around her falling,
Waiting with willing heart. 10 hear
The unseen Boatman calling.
Dear, patient soul, she seems to feel
The Heavenly arms about her;
And when she leaves her earthly home
We shall be sad without her.
Oh, let us not, though round our way
Are new born duties growing.
In looking for the coming race,
Neglect the one that's going.
