The«’ achieved distinction can trace their inherited gifts t o n math, eris character, aad their acquired gift» to a mother1» ,teaching gad influence. Mr». Di«k«u» seems not to h art been a mother of thia »temp. She scarcely, it« * » , possessed these admirqble qual ities of mind aad heart which one can clearly recognize aa having borne fruit in the great ness and goodness of her fa* men» sou. So far a» I <aa discover, she exercised no in fluence upon him at all. Her name hardly appears In his. bi ographies. He never, that 1 een recollect mentions her In his correspondence; only refers to her on the rarest occasions. And perhaps, on the whole, thia U not to be wondered at, if wa ac cept the constant tradition that she had, unknown to herself, sat to her son for the portrait of Mrs. Nickleby, and suggested to him the main traits in the character of that inconsequent and not very wise old lady. Mrs. Nickleby, I take it, was n ot th« kind o f Derson calculated to form the mind of a boy of genius. As well might one ex pect some very domestic bird to tench an eaglet to fly." And so, wa do not haue—the- maiden name of the mother of Charles Dickens; she has hot become lmmqrtai through the Immortality of her offspring— as all good and sacrificing moth ers become Immortal.__ *____ 1 “ ne Things could be worse.

There have been very few persons of eminence In the world who have not felt the hal lowing influence of a mother's love and sacrifice; and two* of them are unmletokebly Lord Byron and Charles Dickens. Hi» father in prison for debt, as a child the divine ‘‘B ob '* knetr hut the poor dregs of family life. Before the Insolvent Debt ors Act had released his father, the young Charles had recounted to him his forlprnness and des- olatoln as a child-boarder in a miserable tenement, and had beg ged to inhabit even the prison if by-living there he coul<L daily see his fond parent. His fath er’s thoughtless but kind heart was touched and a back attic was found for Charles near Mar- shalsea into which the lad moved with the same* feeling as if he had been entering a palace. His father was no more than able to march out of durance than he Farmers are not the only ones who make their living from the uoil. . Consider the laundry.
