v, LOST. A. BOY.
He went away from the old home hearths ton a
Only fix years ago,
A. laughing, frolicking fellow.
- It woiia do you food to know him. d
Binoe then we hava not seen him.
And we say, with nameless pain, . .
The boy that we knew and loved so well
We shall never tee again.
One bearing: the name we gave gave him
Gomes home to as to-day.
Bat this is net the dear fellow
We kissed and sent away.
Tall as the man he calls father.
With a man's look on his face,
Is he who takes by the hearthstone
The lost boy's olden place.
We miss the laagh that made maslo .
Wherever the lost boy went.
Thta man has a smile most winsonv.
His eyes nave a grave intent;
We know he is thinking and planning
B is wax In the world of men.
And we cannot help bat love him. .
Though we long for oar boy again.
We are proud of this manly fellow
Who comes to take his place,
With blats ot the vanished boyhood
In his earnest, thoughtful face;
And yet ccmes back the longing
For the boy we man henceforth miss.
Whom we sent away from the hearthstone
forever with a kiss
SOCIAL CONDITION 0F1 HE COLONIES.
The style of arohiteoture prevailing
throughout the colonies in the early part
of the eighteenth century gives proof
enough that the mode of living among
the higher classes at that period must
everywhere have been much the same.
The same great square edifices, the same
- stocks of" chimneys, the same tiles, the
same mahongany stairways, and the same
carving are still to be seen in the old
dwellings of Portsmouth, Newburyport,
Salem, Boston, Newport, Philadelphia,
Annapolis and Norfolk. When Wash
ington came from Mount Vernon to Gam
bridge as commander of the American
army, he occupied as head-quarters a j
house resembling in many respects his
own; and this was one of the line of sim
ilar houses, afterwards known as "Tory
Row," and extending from Harvard Col- ;
lege to Mount Auburn. These were but
the types of the whole series of colonial
or rather provincial houses, North and
South. Sometimes they were built of
wood, the oaken frames being brought
from England, sometimes of stone. The
ohief difference between the Northern
and Southern houses was that the cham
bers, being less important in a warm
country, were less ample and oomfort
able in the Southern houses, and the
windows were smaller, while for the
reason there was much more lavishness
in the way of piazzas. Every one accus
tomed to the Northern houses is sur
prised -at the inadequate chambers
of Mount Vernon, and it . ap
pears from the diary of Mr. Frost, a
New England traveler in 1797, that he
' was then so struok with the smallness
of the windows as to have made a note of
it. The stairway at Arlington is singu
larly diaproportioned to the external
dignity of the house, and there is a tradi
tion that at the funeral of Jefferson the
stairway of his house at Monticello
proved too narrow for the coffin, so that
it had to be lowered from the window.
All this was the result of the out-door
climate, . and apart from these trivial
variations the life north and south was
much the same stately and ceremonious
in the higher classes, With social dis
tinctions muoh more thoroughly marked
than we are now accustomed to remem
ber. We know by the private memoirs of
the provincial period for instance, from
the charming reoollections of Mrs.
Quincy that the coattfmes and manners
of the upper classes were everywhere
modelled on the English style of the
period. Even after the war of independ
ence, when the wealthier inhabitants of
Boston had largely gone into exile at
Halifax, the churches were still filled on
important occasions with gentlemen
wearing wigs, cocked hats, and scarlet
cloaks; and before the revolution the
display must have been far greater. In
Maryland, at a somewhat earlier period,
we find ah advertisement in the Maryland
Gazette of a servant who offers himself
"to wait on table, curry horses, clean
knives, boot3 and shoes, lay a table,
shave and dress wigs, carry a lantern,
and talk Frenoh; is as honest as the
times will admit, and as sober as can
be." From this standard of a servant's
accomplishments we oan easily infer the
mode of life among the masters.
A striking illustration of these social
demarkations is to be found in the gen
eral catalogues, now called "triennial"
or "quinquennial," of our older col
leges. Down to the year 1768 at Yale,
and 1773 at Harvard, the students of
each class will be found arranged in an
order which is not alphabetical, as at
tne present day, but see ais arbitrary.
Not at all; they were arranged according
to the social positions of their parents;
and we know from the recollections of
the venerable Paine Wingate that the
first thing done by the college authori
ties on the admission of a new class was
to obtain by careful inquiry the relative
social position of the parents. Accord
ing to this position the young students
were "placed" in the dining-hall and the
recitation -room, and upon this was also
based the choice of college rooms. Had
they always retained this relative posi
tion it would have been less galling, but
while the most distinguished student
oould not rise in the list, the reprobates
could fall; and the best scholar in the
class might find himself not marely in
a low position through his parentage,
but flanked on eaoh side by scions of
more famed families who had been de
graded by their own folly or vice.
There could not be a more conclusive
proof that American provincial society,
even in the eastern colonies, was found
ed, down to almost the time oi the final
separation from England, on an essen
tially aristocratic basis.
In the same connection it must be re
membered that in the eighteenth oentury
slavery gave . the tone of manners
through all the colonies. No matter how
small the proportion of Blaves, expe
rience shows that it affected the whole
tone of sooiety. In Massachusetts, in
1775, there was probably a population of
some 350,000, of whom but 5000 were
clave 3. It was enough; the effect fol
lowed. It was in Cambridge, Massa
chusetts, not in Virginia, that Long
fellow found his tradition of the lady
who was buried by her own order with
slave attendants:
"At her feet and at her head
Lies aslave to attend the dead:
But their dust is as white as hers."
It is curious to compare this command
of this dying lady of Vassall race
whether it was an act of arrogance or of
humility with the self-humiliation of a
Virginia dame of the same period, who
directed the burial of her body beneath
that portion of the church occupied by
the poor, as he had despised them in life
and wished them to trample upon .her
when deftd. Historians have dwelt too
much, I think, upon the differences in
social life between the different colonies
and too little on the points of likeness.
Let us consider, by way of illustration,
.the way of living on the Narragansett
shore of Rhode Island and see how
closely it resembled that of Virginia.
The late venerable Isaac Peace Haz
ard, of Newport, Rhode Island, told me
that his great-grandfather, Robert Haz
ard, of Narragansett, used in later life,
when he had given away many of his
farmstohis children, to congratulate
himself on the small limits to which he
had reduced his household, having only
seventy in parlor and kitchen. He occu
pied at one time nearly twelve thousand
acres of land, and kept some four thous
and sheep, from whose fleece his large
household was almost wholly clothed.
He had in his dairy twelve negro women,
all slaves, and each having a young girl
to assist her; eaoh dairy maid had the
care of twelve cows,, and they were ex
pected to make from one to two dozen
cheeses every day. This wtts the
agricultural and domestic side ; the social
life consisted of one long series of gay
entertainments, visiting from house to
house, fox-hunting and horse-racing
with the then famous breed of
Narragansett pacers. Mr. Isaac Hazard
had known old men who in their youth
bad gone to Virginia to ride their own
horses at races, end kept open house for
the Virginia riders in return. To
illustrate how thoroughly the habits of
slavery were infused into the daily life,
he told me that another of these
Narragansett magnates, his great-uncle.
Rowland Robinson, said, impulsively,
one day, "I have not servants enough;
go fetch me some from Guinea." Upon
this the master of a small packet of
twenty tons, belonging to Mr. Robinson,
fitted her out at once, sat sail for
Guinea, and brought home eighteen
slaves, one of . whom was a king's son.
His employer burst into tears on their
arrival, his order not having been seri
ously given. But all this was not in
Maryland or Virginia; it was in Rhode
Island, and on a part of Rhode Island so
much a place of resort for the leading
Boston families that a portion of it is
called Boston Neck to this day.
These descriptions could the paral
leled, though not quite fully, in all the
northern colonies. The description of
the Schuyler family and of their way of
living at Albany, as given by Mrs.
Grant, of Laggan, about 1700,is quite on
a par with these early scenes at .Narra
gansett. In Connecticut it is recorded
of John Peters, father of the early and
malicious historian of that name, that he
"aped the style of a British nobleman,
built his house in a forest, kept his
coach, and looked with some degree of
scorn upon republicans. The stone
house of the Lee family at Marblehead
cost 10,000; the house of Godfrey Mal
bone at Newport cost 20,000; the Went
worth house at Portsmouth had fifty-two
rooms. Through all the colonies these
evidences of a stately way of living were
to be found.
These facts are unquestionable, and
would not so fullv have passed out of
sight but for another fact never yet fully
explained. When the war of Indepen
dence came it made no social change in
the Southern provinces, but it made a
social revolution in the Northern prov
inces. For some reason, perhaps only
for the greater nearness to Nova Scotia,
the gentry of the New England prov
inces took the loyal side, and fled, while
the gentry of Virginia fell in with the new
movement, becoming its leaders. From
my window, as I write, I have gli "pses
of some of the large houses of "Tory
Row, in Cambridge, Massachusetts,
where, according to the contemporary
description of the Baroness Riedesl,
seven kindred families lived in the
greatest luxury until the Revolution, all
probably slave-holders, like the Vassells,
and some of them owning plantations in
Jamaica. All fled, most of their estates
were confiscated, and the war trans
ferred the leadership of the New Eng
land colonies, as Professor Sumner has
lately well shown in his Life of Jackson,
to a new race of young lawyers. Hence
all the ante-Revolutionary life disap
peared, and was soon forgotten; slavery
disappeared also, while the self -same
social order still subsisted in Virginia,
though constantly decaying, until a more
recent war brought that also to an end.
Mr. Lodge has best summed it up: "The
aristocracy of New Eugland did not have
at the bottom any of the great strength
of that in Virginia; but its existence was
as real, and its power almost as great and
unquestioned. T. W. Higginson, m
Harper's Magazine for August.
A Lion Story.
"You see that corn moving?'
"Of course I do."
"Well, that is the tail of the lion beat
ing the ears."
Wo wisely halted to learn the enemy s
intentions, when with incomprehensible
stupidity one of the Arabs shouldered
bis rifle and shot it off in the direction of
the lion. Even if that rifle hod been a
Devismes or a Lepage, unless the Arab
had hit the lion between the eyes, the
only result was the wounding and excit
ing the lion. The consequences had not
long to be waited for. The lion in
stantly began bounding forward in fear
ful strides, and our courage being equal
to the occasion, we climbed up the near
est trees as quickly as we could, consid
ering discretion the better part of valor.
But the lion had seen us, and he ap
proached like a steam engine. As fate
wonld have it,he looked round and chose
the tree on which I sat with two
Zouaves, roaring tremendously, and
wildly beating the air with his tail.
He then went a few steps back, nevor
for one moment losing sight of us, and
with a sudden bound jumped at the tree
and tore a big bit of bark and wood out
and shook us in the branches like grapes.
A second time he tried the same experi
ment with a rage grand to behold; but
after the third time, failing to break the
trunk, which fortunately was a very solid
one, or to make us fall down, he began,
first in a large circle, then gradually in
narrower ones, to pace aound the tree,
his tail always in the air ready to strike.
He never for a moment turned his eye
away from the inhabitants of the leafy
roof. I confess here, that I did not feel
comfortable, and if any one tells you he
met a lion and he was perfectly calm and
composed, take his narration "cum
grano salis." I know that Jules Gerard
who killed eight-aod-twenty lions, and
who made that sort of thing his pro
fession, once, only once in his life, after
having waited a whole night for a lion,
suddenly heard some wood cracking be
hind him, and turning round, beheld the
head of the beast. Then he said, "J
looked at him and he looked at me for
what I fancy was a full minute, but ma
have been half a minute or less, and
when I thought the comedy had lasted
quite long enough, bringing my rifle into
position, I let the whole courtesy" (this
was his expression) "into the lion's eye,
and I hare no doubt that one second
later it would have been too lute."
Anyhow, we felt a curions sensation
with this monster so near and seemingly
so determined to wait any length of time
for be looked up at us with the clearest
possible expression, as much as to say :
Xou just come down, you cowards, and
let us have a fair fight; we will soon see
who will get the best of it. And he con
tinued slowly walking around the tree,
watching us as if to espy every move
ment of ours. At last he marched so
"lowly and so near, always holding up
his proud, majestic heal, that I said ts
my comrades: "We have six gcod snots.
The next time he comes within my range
I shall slowly take aim and fire; tf 1
miss him, do not be rash, wait your
chance one of us mnst kill." When he
neared me I took aim slowly and cau
tiously, knowing the danger if. I failed.
One second more I pressed the trigger,
the ball went straight in at the corner of
his eye and he fell. Now was
the question, was he dead or did be, as
they often do, pretend and lie motlonlesf?
The blood flowed freely and he seemed
not to have any life, when of the Zouaves
said: "Si, monsieur, me donne cent
francs (4) , je descends et je lui donne
son reste." I said: "I will give you the
amount with pleasure, but I do not wish
you to risk your life for a paltry sum,
because if he is not quite dead, you are
dead the moment you come near him."
Well, the man thought he would risk it,
being of opinion the beast was dead.
He descended, his rifle under his arm,
his finger on the trigger, but as he with
the utmost caution neared the lion, a
violent, spasmodic stroke with the tail
made us fear that it was all over with
the man. At this critical moment he let
the whole charge in at the lion's ear and
fortunately killed it. Then, of course,
we all came down, and now the Arabs
began insulting him: "You robber, you
thief, you stole my iheep; you dishon
orable brigand, you murdered my
lamb," etc., etc. I don't know whether
the lion despised calumny, but he re
plied nothing, which seems the most
practicable means of silencing gossiping
tengues, and after cutting his head off,
which was borne in triumph into the
village, this exciting event was over.
Temple Bar.
Theodore Parker and His Fupli.
In the life of Theodore Parker a very
beautiful incident one day occurred. It
was before he was known to fame. He
was only a teacher then, in Watertown,
I think. He had among his soholars a
little witch of a boy, whom no reproof
and no persuasion could induce to keep
himself in order. One day, after his
more than usually troublesome coflduct,
Mr. Parker required the little fellow to
stay after school to be whipped. So the
time had come for this last resource of
the exhausted patience and skill of the
teacher. According to directions the
little fellow held out his hand for pun
ishment, and as he took it, Mr. Parker
said, he looked down into the little face,
and the boy looked so much like his lit
tle sister, whose conduct was all right,
and who had won Mr. Parker's love he
stayed the rod and stooped down and
kissed the innocent lips that were ready
to break forth into crying, and sent the
pupil home. Is it probable that he was
a worse boy after that ? Somebody
knows who this boy was; man, if living
now; I wish we could learn from him
ti e effect upon his life of that kiss of
Mr. Parker's. Springfield Republican.
A German paper, in translating Yankee
Doodle, says: "The word doodle signifies
a lazy scoundrel; a bummer."
