Such/was Mrs. Gray's impatient ques¬tion, one day, when hor little son cameand seated himself in the parlor, whenhis mother was conversing with a visitor."I would rafter be with you than with

^Iirrtr ho a 'queer child ?": asked Mrs.Cfcay.The other raised her sad eyes, and fixed
tlhem with such a painful expression onthe mother's face, that lor a moment Mrs.Gray almost 'feit offended. She was a
veiy sorrowful Rooking woman, this Mrs.Browo? ,C» r.> .Jms!
. "I had,a son.pnce, but he's gone now,"she said at last, and there were tears in
Jierjgyj».:? STre. Gr^y ejazed at her wonderingly.She had not known this before.
"It is a bitter thing to tear open par¬tially healed wounds," Mrs: Brown con¬
tinued^ "but let me tell you my story."Several years ago, I was about to give
a party; a grand affair it was to be, andmy head was almost turned while mak¬ing preparations. My Willie (his name
was Willie, .too.) was about 16 years old.He had never been to school, I had edu¬cated him myself. At home, he was alla mother's heart could desire; but he40g thy, and when I forced him intocompany he appeared so awkward, thatI often felt ashamed of him. This was
ojne reason of my deciding to give a
party. If he was obliged to act the partof host he would overcome his bashful-nets, I thought. Bat Willie never ap¬proved of it.
"I shall be so glad when tho party isovor," he said one day; "for since youhave got it into your head, I have lost
my mother.""Poor little baby I" I responded, slight¬
ly provoked at his lack of interest. ''Iwonder how many more years I shall haveyou tied to my.apron string V*
I spoke saeeringlv, and a proud flash_instantly overspread his face.
"I will be tied there no longer," he re¬
sponded ; "I will seek other company inthe future."
I was frightened at tile result of mywords. Still I made no response. Myson, putting on his coat and hat, weut
out. It was the first time in his life he«lad ever gone out without informing me'where ho was going.In good time the party came off. It
was a gay affair, and. none wore gayerthan Willie. He was sort of an ex¬
tremist, and took no medium stand. Af¬ter that, his books and work were neglec¬ted, and his days, as well as evenings,were sjjfnt abroad. Fast young men
became his constant companions. I was
left alone to mourn over tue ehange I hadwrought Aj first he made it a rule tobe in ai night at ten o'clock, but after a
time he began to stay out later; andday-break sometimes found him fromhome. I tried to expostulate, tried towin him back to his old habits, but myefforts were unavailing. He had got a
taste of a new life, and it held him by a
charm. Well do I remember the firstnight he came home in a state of intoxi¬cation. It was hTs seventeenth birthday,just a year from the time I gave the par¬ty. I had seen him under the influenceof wine once or twice before, but on thisoccasion he drank so deeply tbat some ofhis companions had to help bim home.The hours of that night were dreadful
hours of self-reproach and agony. I wasso glad when morning came to dispel thegloom.so glad when reason returned'tomy erring child. He was very muchjishamed. He said again and again hewould do better; but his resolves were
worthless. Two nights later he was
again brought home intoxicated. Afterthat it was a common occurrence. Hefell lower and lower, squandered all myready money, and when I refused tomortgage my property, that he mighthave more, he left me with an oath.That night a large firm was robbed,
and it was discovered Ciat Willie was oneof the perpetrators of the deed. Thenext morning the town was alive withexcitement, and I almost crazed withanxiety, for my boy had fled. The news
passed from mouth to mouth ; my housewas ?e«rchcd, and my son called a vil-]im; but I had no 'power to prevent

Perfect Independence..All theSouth needs to make it the most inde¬pendent and prosperous country on thefhee ofthe earth, is to put every body toWork at some useful employment.raiseoqr own supplies, and instead of sendingcotton money off for what can better bemade at home, invest it in cotton facto¬ries -thus .supplying, the.^majketsjof thefwurlä" with themanufactured article In¬stead of the rawmaterial.'This is the wlole matter in a nutshell,and whenever tie South carries out thisprogramme, it will become the most pros¬perous country on earth. This cannotall be done in a lay, but we can at oncecommence prepaiiog for it, and the soon¬er the work is begin the earlier it willbe consummated.Georgia is an empire within herself,and can grow and manufacture every¬thing she has use for, except coffee.sogreat is the extent md variety of hersoil and climate.

Peoplego about the streets and aboot their busi¬ness half doubled over, looking like any¬thing but a man; go for hours together,huddling up and shivering, quarreling atthe weather; quarreling at the fires,which are not sufficient to warm them,when the fact is, the fault ay in them¬selves.
