And in a tune which orotluded further inquiry, Iiis wife answered : "tiei-uiieo ho was loo lazy to it up, I tupposu. ior u lew tnonieiitn Mi. lluntz looked ed vuc.tiiily into u corner of tho room, und then ottering it pipe to bin brother, nceincU to torgot that Sammy hud been liicll, lulled.

However it wnn. no one knew. Men are often ashamed of their bor thought-, ami hide them for fear they may be railed unmanly. hcther the ohl udage may bo true or not, that -u moher in the bstnio all the layi of her life, but n father fhaiu'es "'heu ho gets u new wile.'" vg do not pretend to say; but it whs a fact that the n-cond Mr 'Hunts, ami her children were apparently first in the thought und uHections of Mr. Ilantz. Tho morrow whs tbatikngiving, und from vat rly morn had Mrs. Untitz been busy preparing for tho great -'inner of the coining day. More than two months beforo she had partly promised Sammy, "that if he was a good boy und behaved him. Milf," bo might go to his grandfather Lce'ii to ppend Thanksgiving" And tho motherloi-R child hud hoped and planned, and bten happy njx.n the events of that day. lie had many times gone to bed nunneries, und never cried tit all, because ho fell ümI ep thinking of tho dinner ho bhuuld have at his grandfather's. . Although but two xntlos avay, his

top mother ncldoni nl lowed him to go

there, beeuuao u hho nvercd. "lhey act him up nguinat her, und tnndo him look uglier than ever." But nco In it while aho wo obliged lo let him go, for fearthnt "permlo would ta'k about it. Sho was ft fimt clam; member ot (lie church in InglonooU, und her praiso for charitable deeds nnd kindness to the poor, wuü In all tho neighborhood. Hho was one of thono Chrisd Ian, whose rlirht band knowelb what tho lefiliaml docth,' and uhono rolig'on wnt for tho prninoof man, rather than tho upproval of God; and whoso judgment I lenvo for a jtnst Judgo to pronounce ut a coming day. .. .... Many a, timo poor Sammy had a noxed ear, while the min'micr looked out ot tho window, and been neut aujperlens to bed, while Im told visitors that fhe wa nick, und while ho slept nhivering binder a fetv old blankets in, tho garret, slid displayed a. aluig - wurirt tied Toum ee ' ' . it iki i below, us "Sammy room. iitrougn all InglcnooU nho was proverbial a n model nlep mother, und none but ho who watches over motherless children knew of all that poor' Sum my nutfoied. So human friend knew of tho wrong done to his childish nature; of tho liars repressing of all exuberance und Joy; and of tho bitterness which grew up in his heart towards ull but his grandfather. JIo wns liko his mother und setting on her father's knee, he had been told by tho old malt how gentle and lovely she was, und that nho was wiih tho angel in heaven now, und ho u motherless boy. So tho young child s heart clung to the old man who was kin to him, und the greut holiday of the year vas that upon which be could ret uwuy from the sound of his ntep-mother's voice, und tho tear or )cr hand when he cotiui eavo tho chill tlresido' ut home, where io always sat behind the new lamily group, and would climb upon tho tap of old Mr. Lee, und will hi soll curls lying clöo lo tho white hr.ir of tho old man, listen to the stories told of his mother, und then have a nice Hipper upon the lound table, drawn closu to the tiro.

Brookvillo is quito celebrated as having originated und reared a largo class of tho ablest lawyers ami loading politicians of the Stute. Generul James Noldo was an early pioneer of Brookvillo, and for about twelve years wa Senator in Congress.' . lie was an udrolt politician, und an ublo lawyer, und died in the Hcrvico of tho Stute ut Washington, where his remains rest in the Congressional Cemctry, Iiis brother, Koah Noblft, also l?rrr-itrV publio career here, und wus ono of .tho most, popular and upright public men of Indiana.

It surpasses every town in tho State in it iutiiicneo in moulding tho early character of the Stato and guiding its pol tical fori tines.
