Strangers tread thoore and open and shut the doors and order the house; the old pictures have been turned face to the wall in Some attic, or they ornement the dwellings of other people who have become their purchasers; the thousand little things that go to make up the snserfibie of a home are put owity, and the places that knevr them onoesinw them no more. ' .. • Tbi' much that is sad in all this, look at it.in' whatever light there is. If the house be empty, whot strikes the eye and the heart of the passer-by with a quioker or keener sense of desolation than the eight of it ? And this the more especially if that passer-by once knew it when faces and, lights were in the windows and all the insignia of occupancy about it. What more ' melan- choly to those that have loved it once to think, after the fire() novelty of change nas rubbed off a little, of the place as silent, cold, and empty? .And if one conjectures the possibility of the apirit of the deported returning to the lonely scene, what weirder or sadder thought ciould be than that forlorn soul in the forsaken spot? But all this, of course, is the purely son- timental side and aspect of the case, is thought and fancy justifiable as the love of home is a sentiment, and the appreciation of all the virtues and delights of home leads to a sentimental consideration of it, and as home must always be haunted by the mem- ory, if not by the actual forms of those that have made it a living -place, and not the four walls of a tomb. But as a plain fact, and not as a sentimental consisleranion, there are _very much more important views to be taken •of the desolated and abandoned homestead. Weary of close confinement in the home of long standing ; weary et restraint at the hand that now holds the reins no more; weary of possible penury which withheld a thousand longed -for gratifications, or of just as possible extravagance that threaten- ed to waste all the family possessions; weary possibly of the cares and labors of house -keeping, or weary with heart-eick weariness of the walls that • have been Wit- neSSere wibh them of the sights and scenes of sickness and suffering and death—the wife, the daughters'leave that home of years, and depart ontheir travels, or to try the seductive charms of hotel life, or the life of the private boarder, which every one but the private boarder fancies to be such a nappy one. And the old house is left to itself. or,..tso -the strangers, and the family that h#1,1 a bonne is homeless. From that time hanceforth those women live not in rooms with chests of drawers and cupboards and closets au a wardrobes, but in their trunks, lifting out tray after tray for the •sake of a pin or a handkerchief. Instead of the liberty of a house, they are cramped into atonom, usually a single one, or at most but wo rooms, Instead of the exercise of as ma,k, hospitality as they (shoot°, they have to as a landlady's permission for the favor of • a cup of tea to a guest; and. they find all the other boarders entertaining their guest as if the guest were common property.

Sell every- thing, suffer everything in the way of depri- vation, was a dying parent's advice to chil- dren, but keep the house to be together in, whatever befall. It was sound advice. So long as those children, young or old, had a a roof, they could suffer and be strong to- gether. Their wants, their deprivations, were their own and not public property. If needs must that they starve, they could starve in silence and dignity, with none but themselves the wiser or • the worse. All their little shifte were not sub - jute of general discussion; their workwas not on inspeotion ; strangers were not able • to interfere among them or to SOw disten- sion thereby, or to alienate offection. Close together in the habitu contact of daily life, they could only be bound the more closely in habits of thought, in lovo, and in mutual 'concern. And the roof -tree was -responsible for it all. The roof -tree was the bond and the protector; it took the place of parent; it was a shield and bulwark against the world.
