An old man lay on liis sick bed struggling with death. Disease has worn out his body, and so affected his mind that he was insensible to all things and persons around hi in. i 1 is family and one or two other friends, stood l>v his bedside, for it was evident that lie had but a few minutes to live. He rolled bis bead, as if in great pain, and made several efforts to speak. At. leiigth we could distinguish the words: "Mother! I want Mothrr ! IT/ y don't Mother come?" II is mother had been dead nearly Jiffy years. lie was probably unconscious that lie had a wifo and diildrun, uiw.1 grand Cliudren around him, or that he was himself anything but a child, he had his troubles, as all children have, and then he used to carry his little griefs to bis mother, tor he knew now that he was in trouble, and lie thought if lib dear mother would conic she would comfort him. Oh, that children could now under stand what precious things tlicii young affections are. It is sad to set now soon they sometimes part witl Itiom nod how eiisilv tllGv Hl'O 100(1* ashamed of thorn. Boys who love to hp their heads in a mother's lap, to knee by her side and offer their prayers t< God, and who feel as though the; con Id not go to sleep without her com mgto their bed and kissing them, am saying a parting " good night," ar sometimes ashamed of this simple am sweet attachment. But children, sucl as are spoken of in Proverbs, xxx : 11 ridicule them for these expressions < artless love, and call them babyisl When they become old enough to <> out into the world, evil companioi teach them that it is childish, nnmai )y, to follow the councils which they r ceived in childhood, and laugh aboi M anxious mothersand tlicy are t< often successful in their mean effor to wean tlicin from the purest and ha picet affection which belongs to this . world. Then they part with the best love of earth forever. } Would that our little roaders knew with what earnest, but vain longings, they may look back for these blessed ? young affections, should they live until youthful hopes have expired, and the cares of life have become oppress' ive. We could tell them of men of ' ripe age, strong minds, and who have reached higher destinations in the world, who huvo had hours when, , crushed by troubles, atd worn down by suffering, they have been heard to y exclaim, 44 Oh, that I were a little child again 1 Then 1 would carrv mv nor. w / "*V II rows to my mother, sol) upon her bosom, ami she would take mo in her r, arms ard comfort me so sweetly." Children, cherish your youthful affections. If you loose them, they can never return "to you in their present j, freshness. Nourish them through life, and there will never bo a month, per: haps never a day, but they will help : you to understand the still more tender and confiding affection which brings to the redeemed child of God, the love and watchful care of his Father in Ilca\cn.?American Prcsbi/terion.
