I going down ? You know better. That can never be. I know my own wants. My mother knows me better than Ellen does." Ah—had that mother been as wise as she was loving, she would havo seen that the "wild oats" which her son was sowing would surely grow up -and ripen, only. to furnish seed fur re-sowing ! But she loved him—loved hitn almost 10 well—or, I should say, too blindly. But I could Ray no more. I only prayed that God would guard him j and then we conversed on other subjects. I could spend but one day with him bit we promised to correspond often. three yoars more passed, during which John Anderson wrote to me at least once a memth, and sometimes oftener ; but at the end of that time his letters ceased coming, and I received no more for two years, when I again found myself in his native town. It was early in the afternoon when I arrived, and I took dinner at the hotel. I had finished my meal, and was lounging in front of the hotel, when I saw a funeral procession winding into a distant church yard. " 1 asked the landlord whose funeral it was. "Mrs. Anderson's," he said, and as bespoke I noticed a slight drooping of the head, as though it cut him to say. so. "What—John Andtrjion's wife ?" "No," he replied. ''It is his motherand as he said this he turned away ; but a gentleman who stood near, a nd hud overheard the conversation, at once took up the theme. "Our host don't seem inclined to converse upon that subject)" he remarked, with a shrug of the shoulders. "Did you ever know John Anderson ?" _ New Brick.

Not long since I had occasion to visit one of our courts, and while conversing with a.legal friend I heard the name of John Anderson called. "There is a hard case,'' remarked my friend. I looked upon the man in the prisoner's dock. He was standing up, and plead guilty to the crime of theft. He was a tall man, but bent and infirm, though not old. Ilis garb was torn, sparse, and filthy ; his face all bloated and bloodshot; his hair matted with dirt; nnd his bowed form quivering with delirium. Certainly I never saw a more pitiable object. Surely that man was born a villain. I moved my place to obtain a fairer view of his face.— He saw my movement and turned his head.— lie gazed upon me a single instant, and then, covered his lace with bis hands, he sank powerless into his seat. '•(jood Uod I" I involuntarily ejaculated, starting forward. "VTil ." I had half spoken his name when he quickly raised his head and cast upon me a look of such imploring agony that my tongue was tied at once'. Then he covered his face again. I asked uiy legal companion if the prisoner had counsel, lie said no. I then told him to do all in his power for the poor fellow's benefit, and I would pay him. He promised, and I left. I could not remain and sec that man tried. Tears camo to my eyes as I gazed upon him, and it was not until I had gained the street and walked some distance that I could breathe freely. John Anderson ! Alas t he was ashamed to be known as his mother's son I That was not his name; but you shall know him by no other. I will now call him by the name that stands upon the records of thq count. * * John Anderson was my school-mate; and it was not many years ago—not over twenty, that we left our academy together, ho to return to the home of wealthy parents; I to sit 1. atirl ctlon NORM EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA arraDtO'1 ' || K7" Physicians Prescriptionscarcfully coin pounded.

But she loved him—loved hitn almost 10 well—or, I should say, too blindly. But I could Ray no more. I only prayed that God would guard him j and then we conversed on other subjects. I could spend but one day with him bit we promised to correspond often. three yoars more passed, during which John Anderson wrote to me at least once a memth, and sometimes oftener ; but at the end of that time his letters ceased coming, and I received no more for two years, when I again found myself in his native town. It was early in the afternoon when I arrived, and I took dinner at the hotel. I had finished my meal, and was lounging in front of the hotel, when I saw a funeral procession winding into a distant church yard. " 1 asked the landlord whose funeral it was. "Mrs. Anderson's," he said, and as bespoke I noticed a slight drooping of the head, as though it cut him to say. so. "What—John Andtrjion's wife ?" "No," he replied. ''It is his motherand as he said this he turned away ; but a gentleman who stood near, a nd hud overheard the conversation, at once took up the theme.

Not long since I had occasion to visit one of our courts, and while conversing with a.legal friend I heard the name of John Anderson called. "There is a hard case,'' remarked my friend. I looked upon the man in the prisoner's dock. He was standing up, and plead guilty to the crime of theft. He was a tall man, but bent and infirm, though not old. Ilis garb was torn, sparse, and filthy ; his face all bloated and bloodshot; his hair matted with dirt; nnd his bowed form quivering with delirium. Certainly I never saw a more pitiable object. Surely that man was born a villain. I moved my place to obtain a fairer view of his face.— He saw my movement and turned his head.— lie gazed upon me a single instant, and then, covered his lace with bis hands, he sank powerless into his seat. '•(jood Uod I" I involuntarily ejaculated, starting forward. "VTil ." I had half spoken his name when he quickly raised his head and cast upon me a look of such imploring agony that my tongue was tied at once'. Then he covered his face again. I asked uiy legal companion if the prisoner had counsel, lie said no. I then told him to do all in his power for the poor fellow's benefit, and I would pay him. He promised, and I left. I could not remain and sec that man tried. Tears camo to my eyes as I gazed upon him, and it was not until I had gained the street and walked some distance that I could breathe freely. John Anderson ! Alas t he was ashamed to be known as his mother's son I That was not his name; but you shall know him by no other.
