years a‘ter he lost his sight, his father died, 
and left him and his aged mother to struggle 
with the difficulties of getting !a livelihood. 
Mr. Firth resolved to make the best of his 
situation ;——his first effort was to sell earthen- 
ware in small quantities, he afterwards visi- 
ted the potteries of Staffordshire and Liver-) 
pool, and some of the principal glass manu- 
factories, by which he was enabled ta in- 
crease his stock; and by persevering in an 
upright and punctual attention to business, 
and by a syavity of manners, which he pos- 
sessed in an eminent degree, he gained the 
love and esteem of all who knew him. He 
died in the prime of life, leaving a striking 
lesson -of what honesty, industry, and per- 
severance can perform, even when retarded 
by one of the greatest-of human privations: *
