How strange to have a lover, gray and olden. Whose years are many but whose heart is true! Listen, my little boy, and I shall tell The reason why I love my darling well.

For, many years ago, so runs the story, I held a softly yielding hand in mine; In her bright eyes there was the self-same glory Of loveliness and truth I find in thine. If you were older, dear one, you could guess That loving her, I could not love you less. My child, 'tis beautiful to live life over The sweetness of love's perfume never dies. You are my loved one I am still a lover. I find her soul reflected in your eyes, And she is looking on us from above Then kiss your grandpapa, my little love.

They join with vigor in the shoutings of their "aniens," drown all others, while their excitable nature, worked upon by the wild eloquence of the backwoods preacher, seem to give evidence of a firm desire to lead Christian lives, and the spectator is often deceived by their apparent earnestness and sincerity. Such ideas are, however, quickly dispelled by a visit to a ehanty-boat, and a glimpse of these people "at home." BOOKS, POLECATS AND PICTURES.

How An Eccentric Doctor at Potts Land-Was Burnt Oat. Philadelphia Times. Travelers journeying over the branch line of the Philadelphia railroad can hardly fail to have noticed in rear of the rudely constructed hutch that does duty for a depot at Potts' Landing, a long white wall, surrounding some four acres of ground, on which stood, until Thursday last, two houses, a pagoda, a highly ornate summer house, a large vinery and a number of curious outbuildings of varied shapo and design. This was the country seat of Dr. Freedleya well known Philadelphia physician, practicing at the south-east corner of Green and Marshall streets.

On "Tiursday last a fire of unknown origin laid desolate houses, pagoda, and outbuildings, sparing only the summer house and vinery. Dr. Freedley is past seventy years of age, but carries his years bravely, and though bearing the character of being somewhat eccentric in his tastes and habits, he is a gentleman of education and cultivation. He has long been known as an enthusiastic collector of books, pictures and statuary, and last night at the house of his farm manager, at Potts' Station, where the Doctor has eighty-five acres under cultivation, he said: "I have spent fifty yeajs in collecting the books and pictures that perished in Thursday's fire. Among my books I placed most value, perhaps, on my Boy-dell's Illustrated Shakspere, alto folio, and The Coronation of George IV, as I believe no other private collection possessed a copy.

Gilroy's Curicutions, too, in three volumes, alto folio, I prized highly. Cattlin's Indian History, in three volumes, and Bartolozzi's engravings, too, are not to be picked up every day, and hundreds of other valuable books I had but, alas! they are all gone, and no useful purpose would be served by my giving you the list in detaiL" In answer to a query as to his pictures Dr. Freedley went on "Yes, I had some very fine pictures that cost me a mint of meney, sixty-four in all. Among the most valuable were The Adoration of the Magi, by Campi; 'The by Sassafriata two landscapes by Van Storkenberg, and 'He-rodius carrying the Head of John the Baptist in a Charger." The picture was attributed to the immortal Raphael, and I myself have no doubt as to its authenticity. Then, too I had an immense herbarium, to the arrangement of which I have devoted years, and again, my four colossal statues of the seasons, fixed in niches on the sides of my house, not to mention smaller exquisite statuettes of Bacchus and Ariadne: but they are all gone, and I can never expect to live to replace them." "You were, of course, insured?" asked his questioner.

"So, sir, not for a single cent," responded the dc-tor. "What was the use of my insurr. such unique articles as I possessed? No one could replace them. Fifty thousand dollars would not replace them." But chattv and communicative as the doctor was, he did not specify all of the curiosities the contemplation of which beguiled his leisure hours. Passing the wall surrounding the ruins on returning to the depot a sickening and intolerable 6tench assails the passer-by.

An inquiry of a rustic, pressed into the service as a guide along the dark and stone-strewn lanes of the neighborhood, elicited the information that, inaddition to pigeons, chickens, ducks, and an eagle that perished in the flames, Dr. Freedley maintained a large number of polecats, and that these undesirable neighbors, making their escape during the conflagration, are still haunt-insr the locality is made unpleasantly evident to the olfactory organs of any one Eassing within a hundred yards of the lackened ruins.

Death of the Woman for Whom General Jackson Made a Fight The Fierce Pas-Hions of AVashington Society Fifty Years Ago. Chicago Times-1 There died in New York on Saturday a lady, aged eighty-one, the survivor of three husbands, who in her time gained more notoriety than any woman in American history. Though married a third time, Mrs. Eaton retained the name of her second husband, General John who was a strong personal friend of Andrew Jackson's and served for a time in his cabinet as Secretary of Wan She was the plump and pleasing daughter of an innkeeper in the early days of Washington, and was celebrated for her beauty and vivacity. Jackson was a patron of her father's house and the young girl, long before he was President, was dangled on his knee.

The affection he formed for the child he never lost for the woman, and no half-hearted friend, he stood by her with stalwart oaths and terrible frowns through some dark and trying times, and until victory was assured for her over all her enemies. When quite yong the tavern-keeper's daughter was married to a paymaster in the navy named Timberlake. His duties called him away from Washington and his bride, with a frequency she-peemed to fancy more than he. The gossip of the malicious no doubt, and telling only half truths when it took the trouble to concern itself with truth at all, asserts that Old Hickory himself was not sorry to see the paymaster at his official rather than his marital post. Be this as it may, Timberlake didn't find the holv state all that his fancy pictured it, and wlnle light tongues were running on freely about his charming wife, he" put a period to his existence with a pistol shot.

In her widow's cap Mrs. Timberlake, the tavern-keeper's daughter, was handsomer and more vivacious than ever, and just in proportion as Jackson's friendship for her and her family was asserted in the homely and hearty manner characteristic of the man, scandal grew louder in its assaults on the Washington beauty, for envy Was laughed at when it dared'assert that the widow wasn't beautiful.
