A beautiful illustration of filial affection
was brought to our notice the other day.
busy New York physician, who is by no
means wealthy, has been in the habit, for
the last twenty four years. OF writing to
his widowed mother every other day.
She lives In distant State and is depend
ent upon him for support. In each of
these letters he incloses perfectly fresh
bank note-frequently only a dollar in
value, but always new. Doubtless these
missiyes are very brief A life crowded
with professional duties would hardly
admit of the penning of lengthy letters,
but what wealth of devotion is shown by
their frequency through this long period
of years Their regular arrival every other
day must be like sacrament to her lonely
soul, sweeter even than the kisses which
mothers receive daily from sons who are
still with them. No remorse for neglected
duty will trouble his conscience in the day
when he looks upon her dear face in its
last quiet sleep. Multitudes of young and
middle aged men who read this Incl
dent may cherish their mothers as fondly
as this physician but how many express
their love; How often do they write her,
or give any tangible proof of their affec-
tion? Yet man is never more manly
than when initiating the Son of God in
tender consideration for her who bore him.

timony against the Australian ballot. A

that he does not think that the new system

as we have seen, not single man In Masss-

nous testimony of the voters of Massachu-

while the opinion Of this one gentleman In

conclusive evidence of the worthlessness of
the system? Does the Wing believe that
the opinions of minorities are superior to
