“ Dripping” into spring holes,' Ripping something out—

Goodness! but it’s pleasant, Whipping after trout!

No one can say this stream Isn’t worth n dam.

“ Tlntre’s a speckled beauty !"Crook’s hooks never fail.

Twenty ounces, plum, sirs—Heft him if you doubt—

Silver, gold and garnets—What can match a trout ?

Rightly drops the “ tackle,”Blithely sings the stream,

Blithely bursts the foam bells,Like a poet’s dream.

Splash 1 there goes a “ lumber” — W hirr! and he is out !

What school is so charming As a school o f trout.

THE BACHELOR'S RrG0IiVG.

X'liad returned from a long ride in tliq country to see a sick patient. The poor woman was suffering from ery­sipelas, and, though married hut a short time, the husband’s affection seemed diminishing : for, after remain­ing a half hour or so with his sick wife, he would leave her to the care of a nurse, and stroll off over his farm, or visit the neighboring town and smoke and joke with his companions, entirely forgetting the wife he had sworn to love and protect through sickness and health. 1

I had left the sufierer a little easi- ! er, and returned to my own home, fit- j ted tvp in true bachelor fashion, a half j mile out of town. ;

It was raining when I came in, as I . drew off my wet clothes, kicked my 1 hoots into one Corner, placed my feet 1 on the fender before the large, old-. j fashioned fire-place, and commenced | to ruminate.

M y thoughts first turned to the last J patient I had visited. W as she hap- !

1 py in her married life ? Though neg- • ’ lected for a time, her jo y at his re- j

turn was all the more intense, and she | accepted his excuse of ‘ 'business” for j negligence, placing in bis hands the j happiness o f a confiding, loving life. • A rich gift! Then I asked myself the question: W as he happy? Evident­ly , y e 3 : for nothing, not even his wife's sickness, seemed to trouble him. But was he happier in being married ?X took a huge whiff at my meerschaum, glanced at the pile o f wet clothes on a chair, and shutting my eyes, saw a sweet-faced girl, young and fresh and full, of life, with rosy cheeks and dim­pled hands, walk quickly up to a care­worn, wet and repulsive doctor, take his damp and muddy clothes from him, and hang them up on a nail in the entry; bring his slippers and dry socks, and, putting her rounded arms about his neck,kiss his bronzed cheek;

then, sitting on n, cricket at his feet, made a hot hrandy sling fox fear he would “ catch his death o’ cold.” The picture was pretty. Suppose that doctor was myself.

The hired mall in the kitchen, smo­king his dirty clay pipe, broke out in a jubilant strain—

“ Not for Joe ! Not for Joe !Tf ho knows it,Not for Jbseph.l”

I f old Joe thought it was absurd, certainly I ought to abandon the pret­ty idea. But I must raise an argu­ment of my own, to thoroughly satis­fy myself. In my present state of bachelorship my happy hours were not so intensely happy, probably as they would be if I had a pretty wife to share my joys, But, on the other hand, my bouts of sorrow never went so deep, nor cut so sharp, as they might were I married. And perhaps they did not come so often, seeing I now had but one being’s happiness to care for, and that my own.* The idea was a selfish one, I acknowledge. Suppose— W ell, my pipe had gone out and I was about to retire, when Jop knocked at the door, and, on my bidding him “ Come in,” his bushy head only answered the summons, bearing a. grin about his mouth, while he handed me a little perfumed, dain­ty note in a dainty envelope.

“ When did this come, Joe ?” I ask­ed.

“ About two hours ago, sir. I for­got to hand it to you when you first got back. Jack Davis brought it over from Squire Reynolds.”

I broke the seal, unfolded the note, and was hardly able to read the lines, traced so delicately 'on the vapory Drench paper. I made It out some* thing like this :—

“ D e a r D o c t o r :— M y niece, Miss Ward, from Dew York, arrived- this afternoon, and had a chill. I am afraid she yyill bo sick if not attended to in time. Please call this evening i f convenient.

“ M . E . R e y n o l d s .”I looked at my watch. I t was half­

past eight o’clock.“ Joo,” I called.“ Sir ?” And the bushy head again

showed itself at the door;“Harness the roan mare into the

chaise as- soon as possible. Y ou should : have handed me tho note sooner, and in that way saved a little extra trou­ble.”

I don’t know why it was, hut I put on my fine hoots and hx;ushed my hair .more carefully for that’ease.

It wasn’ t a long,drive over to Squire f, Reynolds’j but tho night: was dark, .the,roads-muddy, and the ride.- gener­ally disagreeable... ...Hp.we'vor," the • ele-:

;:ments had no . influence’"on -arife* .and ■now- that it is past, I think the, j secret

was I was “ falling in love” — and that, too, with a girl I had never seen nor heard of. *

I reached the house, pitched my . horse, and rang the bell, then stepped

into tho dimly lighted hall to wait till somebody answered the summons. M rs. Reynolds came herself and con­ducted mo up the stairs to a front chamber, where a small night lamp showed a fair young girl whose black hair fell In wavy ringlets over the pil­low. Her face was slightly flushed, making it all the more lovely.

Drawing a chair to her bedside I took her hand, and something like electricity passed through us both, for she seemed to move suddenly at my touch, and I could hardly restrain myself from pressing the little hand

: to my lips.“ You have some fever, my child,

and arc worn out with your ride. Rest is the best medicine In. the world for such cases, and I guess I will give yon a little jalap, so that by morning yoxi will feel like yourself again.”

The corners of her mouth drew down, and she almost gasped—

“ Jalap!”W ith that look on her face she was

pretlier than ever.“ Yes, why not, my dear?” I asked.She colored perceptibly at the lat­

ter part of the sentence, and I felt more comfortable in my fine boots and carefully combed hair than if I hadn’t taken that trouble. W as it wrong when, instead of giving her something to throw off her feYer, I administered a dose to gently prolong that delight­ful state of ennui ?

I took her hand once more, pressed it in mine, bid her good-night, and told her I would call in the morning.

Mrs. Reynolds followed me* to the door, and asked" if I thought Grace would be sick, and on my assuringher “ not much, a little weak, perhaps, hut the country air would he good for her,” I departed.

I hummed “ Annie Laurie” all the way home, and in my sleep that night I read, on a gold hack-ground, these letters— “ G r a c e W a r d . ” And an orange-blossom was growing in each corner.

I called the next morning, and every day fer a week after, till “ my ward,” as I styled her, had come out as fresh and pretty as a full blown rose.

Mrs. Reynolds got up a pie-nic for Miss Ward, and intimated that I would he expected to take her and her niece.

Exactly on time I was at her door with my carriage, and the little hand of her I put in last felt warmer, and pressed mine closer, I thought, than ever before.

W e drove off in great spirits, and between boating and eating, and romping through the groves, the. day wore fast away. . A s the sun was set­ting, and we preparing to return, Mrs. Reynolds came to me and begged me to excuse her company, as Airs. W el­ling had asked her to ride in her car­riage, and she hadn’t seen her in so long a time until that day, that she would accept it i f I was willing. Erom the bottom of my heart I thanked Airs, Welling, hut out of politeness said:

“ I ’m sorry to lose your company, Airs. Reynolds, hut, of course, would rather you should do as you prefer.”

I wasn’t the only one pleased at that arrangement. Miss Ward, though a little embarrassed, looked as happy at having my company alone as I Cer­tainly was in having hers.

After we had ridden a mile or more, and she had about gained her self composure, a horse came galloping down the road and threatened to scare my own. Whether he jumped or not I don’t know, but this I am quite cer­tain of— Alisa Ward grasped ray arm, evidently frightened and to assure her of her safety I passed it around her waist and drew her to me. When the horse had passed she become aware of her position and tried to free herself.

“ Ho, Grade,” I pleaded, “ wait till I tell you a story, There’s an old genius that lives not far from here— lives all alone with liis two servants. H e is of that detestable class— physi­cians. His life is dark and his path­way thorny ; but there’s one who is a beautiful light to his life, and whose gentlest breath would remove mount­ains from his pathway, Grace, he loves you. Will you be his wife?”

There was a merry twinkle in her eye when she answered—

“ But, doctor, he is old enough to be m y father.”

CJonfound the girl! to throw my age in my face! There were not half a dozen gray hairs in my head.

“ Then feel flattered,” I answered, “ for through all his many years he has never met a Grace • Ward till now.”

“ H e couldn’ t have traveled far, then,” she replied.

“ Grace, can’t you love me?” I ask* ed, almost losing confidence at the last.

“ You, doctor,” and she looked'so surprised. “ W hy I thought you meant Doctor Brown, of New York ! Didn’t you know I was engaged to him?”

M y head grew dizzy, I withdrew, my arm from her waist and whipped the horse into a fearful pace. Treesj rocks and houses flew past us, and still the horse kept up his break-neck gait until within a mile of Airs. Rey­nolds’} when I felt a gentle hand laid on my shoulder, and a musical, plead­ing voice say-^

“ Don’t, doctor; .1 love you, and the happiest place on earth to me . would be your house.” •

I looked into her face, and saw by her look that skakad only been play­ing with my. affection. I stopped, the horse, drew her to my side again, .and’ a feeling of peace with the world came over me, such as I had never known before.

One pleasant morning in Alay, Grace came to-keep Jlonse for»a-hacH-, el or. doctor^. and:I found.^that all'.mar-;: riages are not'lthe same;- - . : L $e

In the old country churches in England, they often haven clerk, who, 'in.a nasal, twang, reads the responses,, hndf gives oiit: the hymns and psalms. .This ^ilffffeliow; generally has a'fixed seat in -"the village alehouse, where, he is an .-aufhority oh-' all. matters parochial or eecieiiashc^:f'LlYh®n> by death or otherwise,, the'office ' becomes vacant, .a new clerk 'must ' b'e .eleHed,; "arid the following anecdote ; -will iliustxatev::the great pains occasionally : .taken' iri.-. the; choice: D,

A country church, in. Sometshire, 'was. in want of a derk^’. fishd*' as'jtffd‘'.^]pary'; with prerequisites was only six founds per annum and a suite of cloths,1, there was some -slight: diffieulty In . finding Can­didates for it. A t last ah old'-fellow, who tad been for a long time'liVingby!;hi.3 wits,- applied for the clerkship, quite.forgetful bf the fact that he could -neither!;." read fhor- write. Those who had the appointing’ of- him did not think of asking, anylquestibus} and be was engaged.' • ; ;*

“ Who was to read the. service?!’ the new clerk inquired of himselh Sunday was approaching, and what was he to do ? ; He was, for n time, in great; ‘■fri.bulation.;

A t length, he bethought him of a friend, who could read, and -who would, no doubt, be able and willing to prompt .him.

He sought the friend, and secured his assistance, arranging for the latter to have a seat near at hand, among the:; choristers. .- ■ On Sunday,, the new clerk commenced, his duties, and got on well enough-; until he came to the “ Te Deuro,” when,- by ill luck, he placed his thumb right- bverr-tha : sentence necessary to. be read. ;

“ Take thee'thumb awa’,” whispered his ; friend.

“ Take the thumb awa’,” repeated; ’the ! new clerk, in a clear sonorous voice.

“ Thee fool, thee’s spoilt, it all,” mut- - tered the dismayed-prompter. -

“ Thee fool, thee’s spoilt it all,” sang- out the unfortunate clerk.

A sudden raid of church-wardens ended; in the poor imposter being dragged.away from the desk, and hustled" out "of ,'the church— no doubt regretting that in'Ins: early days he had not paid . mpf e;" atien-: tion to liis spelling-book.

A? Gentlemanly; Aetor Receives Fif­teen Cents.

The Boston.- Courier says that as Mr. Rtuart Robsau, tb a . popular comedian, was approaching the corner of Rollins and Washington streets, yesterday morning, he encountered a pornpous-looking darker, Who was in charge of a comfortable fami­ly-carriage and a pair of sleek-looking horses. A s Mr. Robson neared him, the newly made .citizen patronizingly accosted him, with :• -

“Young, man!”• -“Sir to you,” said" Robson, pulling off

his hat in mpek politeness.;“If you a'ro in no'hurry, would you

oblige! me by dropping' into that store acro’ss. the way, and bring me a plug of tobacco ? I can’t leave my horses, and I ’ll do the same for you some day.”'■* For a moment, 'the comedian’s dignity

; seemed staggered, but he quickly recover­ed himself, and with ,"an. illy-concealed smile playing on his comical, countenance, replied:

“ With pleasure, sir.”The coachman- handed him a twenty--

five cent note, which was received in the , most respectful manner by Robson, who 1 proceeded directly to the store indicated,

and in a few moments returned with the tobacco in one hand and fifteen cents in the other, which he held out to -the party who had given him so'striking a proof of his confidence.

. Mr. Darkey received the. tobacco with a . slight “ thank you,” and, waving ’ his band with the most satisfied self-imp’or-

• tance, he said:• “ Oh, you ■ can keep the change, young

man.”-, ~Mr. Robson's face. lias expressed many comical emotipns in his • professional, ca­pacity, but we dobbt if ever he looked so qnizzingly ludicrous as when, fully' .real- izing-the amuzing'absurdity of his posi­tion,.- he pocketed his fee . and walked briskly away. .

A Sad Circumstance.Marlt Twain in San Francisco Alta. •

There is some little talk about a circum­stance which happened the other day to, an exalted "Washington official. It seems to be my duty to record it. I will call the sufferer Gen. George Relding for t,he sake of convenience. He is said to be a right good- man, but was very liberal in his views and a very sociable sort of person. He used to go about a 'good deal, and among other places he used to go up to Socrates, on the Hudson River railroad, every now and then, and stay all night at a hotel kept by a Mr. and Mrs,. Wagner. In due time he _fell in love - with a refined and . cultivated young lady in Brooklyn, and immediately put himself upon liis very best behavior. In the course of six months she 'married him, and gave it as her, opinion that she was marrying perfec­tion itself. The young couple were very happy. They began to frisk around and enjoy the honeymoon. Presently they fan up to Socrates and camped at Mr, and Airs. Wagner's hotel. . In the evening, George was sitting on a sofa in the par­lor, with his arm around his bride’s should­ers, when Mrs. Wagner entered. She struck an attitude. She began to get an­gry in a minute. Then she said : “Look here, my fine fellow, I ’ve had as much of this as I ’m going to stand. There you are down on, that register, as 'Gen. George Belding,’ again. You've done that thing sixteen times in eighteen months, and you’ve fetched a fresh trollop along every time. Young Woman, march! Yamos the ranch, you brazen faced huzzy.” It was a very sad circumstance. Now 'wasn’t it?

Doae.A man in the dress of a workman was

lately walking in the streets of Berlin with a packet in his hand, sealed and in­scribed with an address, and a note that it Contained one hundred thalers in treasury bills. As the bearer appeared to lie at a loss, he was accosted by a passenger, who asked him what lie was looking for. The simple; countryman placed the packet into the inquirer’s hands, and requested that he would read the address. The reply was made as with an agreeable surpries- ‘ Why, this letter is for me ! I have been- expecting .it.for a long while !” . The mes* senger upon this demanded ten thalers for the carriage of the packet, which • was readily paid, with a liberal addition tb the porter. The new possessor of the packet hastened to an obscure .corner to examine his prize ; but, on breaking the -'seal, found nothing but a few -sheets o f paper, on which was written, ‘Done !'

A Litilc Romance.A soldier named Chas. Catherton was

captured at Wilson’s Greek, Mo., when Gen. Lyon was killed, and placed under a" Confederate guard, Whenever’ a prisoner .wished to leave the lines to get a drink at the spring, a Confederate soldier went with him. A reb named -Billings went With: Catherton to the spring; and Oatherton bargained with him to let him ..get away ail'd he would pay him.;. The-, afrange- nient was that the Confederate was to let .Oatherton run, and fire his1 gun in another direction, and pretend to pursue. I f Cath- erton got awayj lie was to send Billings §100 by his brother, who was a-prisoner

In the Federal- hands; and would .do'ubtless be exchanged. The plan worked. •Cath­erton ran, Billings fired his gun and shout­ed, but it did not avail anything, oteourse-

Oatherton got back-to, :St. Louis, found Billings’ brother, and -Sent the §100, as he agreed. After the war, Oatherton and Billinas accidentally met, and going to In­dianapolis went into business together, and are now running a/large grocery es­tablishment. • ,

THURSDAY MOHXIYG, ROY. 4, 1SG9.

THE ELECTION OX 5 E XT TUESDAY.Oin' reaclci's w ill tea r in. mind tlie

fact that they are called upon, to vote,, on Tuesday next, 5vov. 9th, for a man to fill the office o f Judge o f the Sec­ond Judicial Circuit. A t the elec­tion, the unexpired term o f the late: Hon. Judge Bacon m il have to be filled, as v e il as an election had for the fu ll term to "which Judge Bacon was elected.

The District Convention held in Niles, on Tuesday, put in nomination Geo. S. Clapp, E sq ,, for the office. N o better selection could have been made, and we are confident none that would meet a more hearty approba­tion o f the Republicans o f the Dis­trict.

Air. Clapp is well known m Ber­rien and Cass Counties, which now comprise the -n il Judicial Circuit, as a n a n o f undoultxd m tegnty and m everv wav qualiiied to fill the honora­ble and responsible position to which he has been nominated. O f this, there is not the least doubt. I t becomes every voter then, who desires the welfare o f the District, and who would have a competent Judge, to vote and labor hard to secure the triumphant election o f M r. Clapp. Let no Republican sav. ‘ ‘I have no interest m the selection of a Jiulcre. This is i mistake E \eivm an i mteie ted

No one knows how soon lie may he engaged m litigation, and then he will feel that he uouldpicfer a Judge of acknowledged integrity to sit on his case.

Then, Republicans o f Berrien and Cass Counties, see that every one is at the polls on Tuesday next and votes for M r. Clapp. A n d i f you know o f an indifferent Republican, stir him up and have Mm at the polls. Show Mm that Ms interest is at stake, as well as that o f his neighbors. L et every thing be done to place a competent man in this responsible position.

E very effort will, undoubtedly, be used to secure the election o f a Dem - cratie Judge. The efforts o f the D e­m ocracy will he bent, with great en­ergy, to accomplish this end. They have already made their boasts, that they can elect their man. So they can, i f the Republicans iu the District stay away from the p o lls ; but they cannot i f every Republican dies his duty on Tuesday next. There is no time to lose. E very moment should b e employed, diligently to place a Re­publican Judge upon the Bench, be­lieving that he will more faithfully de­cide all questions touching the great principles o f Justice, as understood and enacted into law b y our Legisla- tors, than one o f the opposite party.

In voting for a Republican, wc vote fur the great principles o f the party o f justice and o f right. Let every one do his duty and thus secure an overwhelming majority in favor o f Mr. Clapp, a man in every way abund­antly qualified to fill tho responsible and honorable position o f Judge, to wMcli he has been nominated by the Republicans o f tMs Second Judicial Circuit.

D etroit P ost also advocates ual removal o f the Capital. I t thinks that a sits should soon he secured for the new Capital, and that this should he gradually im proved; and that of­fice after office, and department after department should be removed to the new site. I t would have, at least, fif­teen years consumed in the entire re­moval.

This plan would, doubtless, he m uch more acceptable to the great m ajority o f the people, than the ex­pensive one o f immediate removal. A s it is certain something must he done, about more room for Govern­ment offices, we know o f no arrange­ment that would so fu lly meet the judgem ent o f the people, as the im ­mediate location o f the site o f the fu­ture Capital, and erection thereon o f such additional buildings as the Gov­ernment needs.

The question, undoubtedly, will he one that will engross considerable at­tention at the next session o f Con-, gress. I t is expected, that every W estern member, especially, will per­sistently refuse to make further ap­propriations for Government build­ings, in Washington. There are two tilings to wMeh the Am erican people m ay as w ell make up their minds— two inevitable results in the future. One o f these is the removal o f the N ational Capital, and the other is wo­m an suffrage. These two events will occur, and he who opposes them, will find him self kicking against the goads.

A STRANGE RUMOR.I t is well known to many persons

throughout the country, that there i now pending, and has been peach g for a long time, a case in the Gnprein Court, which involves the e it:st;ti.

tionality o f the L egal Tender act It «> thought, and no doubt upon goo grounds, that the Court will hold the act to be illegal.

I t is rumored th a tiu view o f the forth com ing decision, Secretary Bout- Well will resume specie payment. There is now in the Treasury $117,- 000,000 o f gold, against which there is outstanding certificates o f $29,000,- •000. That leaves a balance o f §88,- 000,000. During the mouth of N ovem ber the Secretary will sell 11,000,000 in gold, and prior to the rendering o f the Supreme Court decision, resume specie payments. It is rumored that this story caused the fa ll in gold, it selling as low as $128£ on Monday. W hether there is any truth in the rumor will soon be known,

j| S a s the decision o f the Supreme Court, ^ refered to, cannot always be delayed,

hut must be rendered before long.

Tbe Uouuty Imstitutcs.Two Tendiera’ Tnstitmei were held in

Berrien County during the last fortnight in October— the first nt Buchannn, the other nt Sc. Joseph. A t both places they were eonjhplly welcomed, the teachers hos­pitably and grnluitiously entertained, and the day and evening sessions well attend­ed by citizens as welt as members. Tt.at for the southern half of the county was attended by nearly seventy-five persons; that for Northern Berrien registered about eighty, the two mtetings aggregatinu over one hundred and fifty members, or one for every school district in the county. Any other county >n Michigan, or probably, in the Union, may bo safely challenged to exhibit a more tr.lUanfc record in the raat-

r ter .of attendance upon local Institutes, "j and when it is remembered that, until the

y 1 spring of last year, not an Institute had been held In the county, except One at Nile3, tinder the direction of the State Superintendent:, at intervals of three to five years, the fact is truly surprising, and of .the highest significance to our educa- tionalinterests. The spirit which prompt­ed and maintained this attendance is that which will bring untold blessings to our schools.

The quality o f the attendance Was not less noticeable than its quantity. Tnc un­utterably homely girls, the vinegary old maids, the angular spinsters, arrayed in tiie old-time fashions, which the popular mind is wont to associate with the idea of the school-mistress, were not there. The green and gawky hoys, the stiff and for­mal pedagogues, the stilted pedants, the lehabod Cranes, and the rest of the school­masters o f that ilk. were all "abroad" from these meetings. They were assemblies of

i ladies and gentlemen— among the former many of the most beautiful, graceful, and intelligent, among the latter some of the most sensible and practical, that the county owns. Berrien has no reason to be ashamed o f the personnel o f its teneliers I f as large companies of fairer women and better men can be collected here from any other walk in life, we shall be glad to ble33jonr eyes with the sight.

The earnest .working spirit of the Insti­tutes was manifest from the beginning of each. The attention -was careful, close and eager: the note-taking uncommonly general and full; the questions frequent aud pointed; the diseussfons critical, yet thoroughly respectful and well-directed. There was much inquiry lor the best teachers’ aid 7 in the way of professional treatises end periodicals, improved text hook? and apparatus. Nearly every first and second grade teacher in the county wa? at some time present, and any one who observed their anxiety to secure all means o f improvement could not fail to entertain tho highest hopes for our educa­tional future. The veteran Superintend­ent of Van Buren County, a life-long worker in various fields of education, thought the Institute at St. Joseph the finest body of the kind he had ever seen assembled.

The chief instructors at Buchauan were Prof, Goodiscm, late of the State N ormal School, Principal Barrett, of the village school?, Jay AY. Cowdery, Esq., of De­troit, and Mr. J. II. Rolf, of Chicago. Those at St. Joseph were Prof, Goodison, Prof. J. II, Webb, author of the Word- method, Supt. Edw. Cleveland, of ALm Baron, and Principal Stilwell, Of the vil­lage. Few words were wasted. The in­structions were practical and to the point, and the members evidently bore much of them away from the Institutes, in their note-h joks and their brains. The lectures of Prof. Goodison will mark a new era in the teaching of geography and drawing all over the county.

The teachers have dispersed to their several fields of labor, each isolated and alone— but, it is hoped, with a fuller mind and more hopeful, enthusiastic, devoted heart— to carry the banner of educational reform to some portion of the- people. W ill you not, dear public o f the school districts, warmly welcome the nobler ideas

R ailroad Properfy.. Senator Carpenter, o f Wisconsin, it ap­

pears, has had liis letter concerning the principles of public policy applicable to railroads, criticised by a lawyer named Pope Mr,, Pope come to the conclusion that railroads are private property; there­fore, they cannot be aided by taxation, but they are still subject to legislative con­trol. Mr. Pope quotes the decision o f the Wisconsin: Supreme Court, which Mr.

1 Carpenter combats, that "the road, with all its rolling-stock,, buildings, fixtures and other,- property pertaining to it, is private property, owned, operated and used by the company for the exclusive benefit and ad­vantage o f the stockholders,’’ and remarks that lie cannot see how any such corporate .property can properly he regarded as pub­lic property, in any just sense of the term. This letter has drawn out -a reply from Senator Carpenter, in which he says he cannot see this any mote than Air. Pope, under that decision. But- he maintains that the decision is ineorrect— that rail­roads are not private property, hut are public property. Senator Carpenter cites various decision? of liie:coarfs in support of Ids propositions. He shows that pri­vate property eatutobhe taken for private. Use ; but may be taken fnr public use ‘ that pr.vate property is taken for the right- of-way o f railroads, upon the express ground that railroads are public highways. He quotes Chief Justice Shaw, in the case of Worcester vs;, Railroad Company, 4 Metcalfj 566. In tin? ease, Chief Justice Shaw, in his decision, says that the rail­road is ' a “ thoxijughfhie.” T‘a public work established by public'authority, the use of winch is secured to the whole community, and; ao^stitutes, •therefore, like a cana1, turn’pike, or high.way, ’a public easement. The only principle on which the Legisla­ture cottld. Jtave authorized the taking of private ptojibr'ty for its constrnction, with­out'the OxVner’s consent,- is that it was for the public use.” *6 In: a, criticism sent to T-hc Post, by a

‘ lawyer of .this State, it was stated'that no­body had ever before called a- railroad a .highway hold in trust for the public. Yet, jff;‘the*brtse *<jfibfcedt •Chief Justice Shaw

F i r e .— About 7 o’clock on Satur­day morning, the alarm of fire Was sounded, and on learning the cause, it was ascertained -that the building occupied by Messrs. Blake & Long, grocery and provision dealers, was found to be on fire. The Pump En­gine and the Fire Engino were both got ready for operation, as soon as possible, without there being any or­ganized Fire Company. D.pring the delay in getting tho Engine in readi­ness, considerable headway was made by the fire, and the prospect, looked gloomy enough, of subduing it. A t last,, however, tho'Engine began play­ing upon tbo building, with bfit little effect for some time, owing to the dif­ficulty o f getting the water where the fire was. W ith great exertion, qn tho part of several of our citizens, the hose was so arranged as to throw water where it: was needed. Then the fire, began to show signs of yielding, and soon it was evident that the build­ing on fire, as well as those most ex­posed, would all be saved. A ll our citizens should feel well satisfied with the result of Our Engine Pump, as well as the Fire Engine. In tho fire on Saturday, they amply repaid tbejr entire cost in tbo property saved, that othonv|sa mqst have beep destroyed. The loss to ’ Messrs. Blake & Long will be some $ 6 0 0 ; no insurance. W hile on tlio subject, We would again suggest tbo necessity of a thoroughly organized Firo Company.

M r. "Editor :— There is more business done here, at present, than at any time for the last two years. There are a num­ber of buildings in the course of erection. Considerable farm and village property is changing hands. Elder Manley has sold his residence to Elder Millis, of Ind. Eld­er Manley talks of going to Kansas, where he will find a large field to labor in. Mr. "William Chamberlain has sold his nice residence to Mr. John Hilton, Mr. William Chamberlain lias bought of Mr. Ryther one of the finest ^residences in our village. A wealthy Englishman lias pur­chased a tract of - and one mile north of town, and intends making a park of the Mr. Ryther on going to the barn in tlie morning, discovered that some one had been there and taken his double harness.

Since the late freezee, "White Oak never before apueared so greenee. I Clink it was very unwise in the Capital Conven­tion, at St. Louis, passing a resolution to locate the National Capital at Pond Tal­ley- : because there is one unoccupied "White House there. When passing Pond Valley, not long since, and admiring its beautiful scenery, I could compare it only to the Garden of Eden, where Evam and A d dwelt. I would be pleased to hear :rom L. C.

Editor Record :— We are happy to communi­cate that our city is not to be without a lecture course this winter as many of our citizens fear­ed. The first lecture is to be delivered by the Rev. Stephen H. Young, of New York, on Mon« day evening, November 22. His subject has not yet been announced. Dr. Hays, the Arctic Ex­plorer is to deliver the next.

One Charles Kizer, a German of this city, lias been going in pretty “ heavy” on the marry being spliced to only two gushing persons of the female persuation in one day, and then left those parts between two days to try his luck somewhere else— probably in Utah. The officers are on his track.

Blake, the man who killed Hess at Pokagon last summer has been released from prison by tlie Supreme Court, and a new trial ordered.

Sunday evening several individuals were areested for drunkenness and disorderly eon. duet. The “ Duke” put up at tlie new quarters recently furnished by the city, much to his disgust, as bis DukdShip preferred Ills own virtuous couch, but Ills protestations were de­livered in so loud a key that the guardians of the Aiglit. defined it a “ breaking the peace” of those who wanted to sleep. “ Sid” also imbi­bed rather freely of “ bust head,” so much so that he thought ho could “ bust" Mr. Starr’s head o f the Reading House. Ho knocked him down once but carry a “ bust." He then “ slid out” to a saloon kept by Fields, and in going out of the back door, was caught by officer Flynn

Between August 27 and October IS only four interments in the Silver Brook Cemetery, three of whom were children.

jSS-rClive Logan, the former actress,- who left the stage to engage in literature, and who has, in some of her lecent books, created quite a Sensation, is writing a story for the Detroit Tribune.

“ ’Tis True, ’ tispity, pity ’ tis true,” that man­kind will pass by unheeded the warning sym­ptoms of disease and neglect the remedies to restore health, until disease has so for advanced that it is often impossible to obtain relief. We have been" shown the formula o f Judson’s Mountain Herb Pills and believe them to be the best and simplest of medicines for Billious dis­orders, Liver Complaints, Female Irregularities, &c. They are prepared with groat caution and will save many a doctor’s bill if used in time. Are an universal family medicine they are un­surpassed. Give tho mountain Herb Pill as fair trial and We warrant you will never be without them. Sold by all dealers. 2

f§F*Among the many hair preparations in: the market, it is no easy matter to decide which one ofjhem is most desirable for use. HALL’S VEGETABLE SICILIAN HAIR RENEWER has been, before the public about nine years, its virtues tested and certified'to by many lead­ing and influential physicians of New England, among '"whom we may name Walter Burnham, M. D., formerly Professor of Surgery in the Worcester Medical Institution, and in Penn University o f Philadelphia, who save, “ I have_ used it'for restoring the hair, where inveterate" eruptions had resisted various kinds o f treat­ment, and found that not only was the hair beautifully restored to its original beauty, but also the'disease of the scalp completely cured;" also Geo.-, Gray, M. D., o f Nashua, N. H., the leading physician of the place where this RENEWER is manufactured, speaks of the preparation in this way; “ 1 have seen its effects inwery many cases. ' It will certainly restore the hair to its original colar, it cleans the head o f dandruff, and leaves the hair soft glossy and beautiful. I do not think its use in any way'injurious but on the eontrary.benefieial.I can, therefore, cheerfully reccommend it to the public.” A. A. Hayes, M. D-, State Assayer of Mass.;' having analyzed it, assures the public by certificate, that it is the best preparation for the intended purposes of the many he has ex­amined.'

With these assurances from such high sources, surely those who desire a perleet and reliable hair restorer can do no better than use HALL’S VEGETABLE SICILIAN HAIR RENEWER

DOTY’S WASHING MACHINE,LATELY .MUCH 1MPBOVED—AND THE NEW

Improved with Rowell’s PatentDouble Cog-wheel9, and the Patent §top, are now unquestionably far superior to any apparatus for washing clothes over invented, and will save their cost twice a year, by saving labor and clothes.

Those who have used them give testimony as follows:“Wo like our machine much; could not be persuaded

to do without it, andwith’ tho oid o f Doty, we feel that wo aro masters o f the ppsitiou.,’:—Rev. L . Scott, B ishop if,B . Church.

uIt is worth oiio dollar A week in any family.—iV. Y. Tribune. " **

“ In tho laundry o f niy houso there is a perpetual thanksgiving on Mondays for the invention.” —Rev. Theodore* B . Cuyler.

“Every week lias given it a stronger hold upon the af­fections of tho inmates o f the laundry.”—JV. Y. Observer.

“ I heartily commend it to economists of tiniq* money and contentment.”—R ev. D r. Bellows.

“Friend. Doty—Your last improvement of your Wash­ing Machine is a complete success.’* I assure yon ‘our Machine,’ alter, a years use, ils thought iuoro o f to day than ever, and would not be parted with under any cir- cumstances.”—Sdton Robinson.

“ Your Washing Miichine has boon in daily use in our lauhdry* and the housekeeper expresses herself as highly pleased with it. I t certainly accomplishes a greater amount o f work, with, less labor, and docs h o i wear tho clothes near so much, as the- old fashioned wash-board. B yusingit, one laundress is dispensed with.” — lVm .M . P . Ronrid, Superintendent o f In fant Department o f St. Catharine's N ursery, I f . Y. City.

“After a constant uso o f the. Uatversal Clothes Weixger for more than four years in our .family, la m authorized by the ‘powers that bo’ to give it the most unqualified praise* and to pron'ounce it an indispensable part of the machinery of housekeeping. Our servants have always been willing to use it, and always have liked it.—H enry Ward Beecher.

-and we will forward either or both machines, ire o o f freight, to places where ho one is selling ; and so sure aro wei they will bo liked, that we agree to refund tho money i f any one wishes to return the machines free o f freight* after a month’s trial, according to directions.

No husband, fatlieror brother shouldpcm tf tho drudg­ery o f washing with tho hands, fifty-two days in tho year, when it canbo done better, more expeditiously, with less labor, and no injury to the garments, by a Doty Clothoa Washer, and a Universal Wringer. .

The <lay„ with it* sandals dipped in dew, ir«3 passed throtuftt the evening’s golden gate,

And a single Star in the cloudles blue For the rising mqPn in silence waits;

■White the winds that sigh to the languid, hours. Breathe a lullaby e’er the folded flowers.

The lilies nod to the sound o f the stream That winds along with a lulling flow,

And either awake, or half a dream,I pass through the. realms o f Long Ago—

While faces peer with many a smile From the bowers o f memory’s magical isle.

There are joys and sunshine, sorrows and tears, That checker the path o f life’s April hours;

And a longing; wish for the coming yearsThat hope ever wreathes with the fairest

flowers?There are friendships guileless, loves as bright

And pure as the stars in, the; halls o f night.

There are ashen memories, hitter pain Apd buried hopes, and a broken vow,

And an aching heart by the restless, main,And; the sea breeze fanning a pallid brow;

And, a wanderer on the shell lined shore, fastening for voices that speak no more.

There are passions strong, and ambitions wild $• And the fierce desire to stand in the ran

Ofthe battle o f life, and the heart o f the man Is crushed in the breast of the;struggling child;

But short the regrets and few are the tears That fall at the tomb o f the vanished years;

There is quiet and peace and domestic! love,And; joys arising from, faith and truth,

And a trust unquestioning, far above'The passionate dteamings, o f ardent youth;

And the hisses o f children, ou lips and cheek, And the parent’s bliss, which no words cam

speak.

There are loved one’s lost! there are little graves In the lonely dell, 'neath protecting trees,

Where' the streamlet winds,and the violet waves, And grasses away to the sighing breeze,

And we mournfor the pressure o f tender lips. And the light o f eyes darkened in death’s

eclipse.

And thus, as the glo w o f daylight dies.A n d t h e n ig h ts firs t l o o k t o the earth is cast,

I gaze ’neath these beautiful summer skiea Atthe pictures that hung in the halls o f the

past, * iOh l sorrow and joy chant a mingled lay, ;

When to memory’s wild.wood wc wandered away.

Degrees of Glory.

There are degrees of glory; there is glory begun here in grace, and there is glory o f the soul after death, and the glory both of soul and body forever in heaven; and these make way one to an other. A Christian is glorious while he Ryes, and he grows in glory while he Jives. He is more glorious when he dies, for then his soul hath perfectly the image of Christ stamped upon it. But he is most glorious at the day of resurrection, when body and soul shall be glorious when he shall put down the very sun it­self, A ll glory shall be nothing to the glory of the. saints. ‘They shall shine as the sun in the firmament,” (Dan. xii. 3 :) and indeed, tnere will be no glory but the glory of Christ and of his-house; all other ! glory shall vanish and come to nothing! i W hy, then, should we be afraid o f death ?

Spasmodiac Piety*A quaint wnter compares a certain

class of professors to 'sheet-iron stoves heated by suavmgs,’ "When tl ere is a little reviving m the church, they all at once flame up and become exceedingly warm and zeal ms. They are ready to chide the pastor and the elders for their coldness and maouvuv. But alas! the shavings are soon burned out, and then the heat goes down as it went up. They are never seen m the prayer room, or any more spiritual meetings o f the church again, until there is another excitement. It such people had not souls of their own to save, they woulcf not be worth taking into the churGa. Tuev encumber it, though they may themselves receive a benefit from a connection with it.

lias stripped the rolling hill tops and lofty mountain; summi.s o f their summer’s garb o f green. -But, down, down, in the lowly vale or lonely dell sweet ambrosial gales play amid the verdant foilage o f the cedar, hemlock and magnolia—-there, too, is heard the murmartngs o f the rippling brook, whose crystal waters glisten in the stray ray3 o f sunlight which now and then part in. So with the Christian life, Lasting verdure (pleasure) will not be found in high places. But low down in the valley o£ humility we stoop to find lasting pleasures— where God’s grace runs most free ’mid crystal streams o f living waters. Here his genial rays o f love beam through from Heaven to brighten our hopes, as we pa33 on to the palmy land o f everlasting verdure.— J. S. F lory.

Hope and Courage.

True hope: is based on energy of charac­ter. A strong mind always hopes;, and has always cause to hope,: because it knows the mutability o f human affairs, and how slight a circumstance may change the whole course o f events. Such a spirit, too, rests upon itself; it is not confined to particular objects; and i f at last all should be lo3t, it bag saved itself its own integri [ ty and worth.— H ope awakens courage. • while despondency is the lost of all evils; ; it-is the abandonment o f all good— the giving up o f the battle of life with dr id nothingness. H e who can implant coin­age in the human soul is the best physician. 1 To" seek to govern men by their fear> nun their wants is an unworthy purpose ; th«- desire to rule by means o f cowardice. L ov e inspires courage and hope; and this is doubly the giver anu pieserver of life. W hatsoever teaches boldness o f comba’ the manifold evil's and assaults o f life, en j ables us to win the crown of victory ; Special care, therefore, ought to be taker, in education to teach what true courage is —-as well in social and domestic as to public affairs— and b y what means it may be best sustained'.

Flaw Hunters.There are people who have a preternat

ural faculty for detecting evil, or the appearance of evil, in every man’s charac­ter. They have a fatal scent for carfion. Their memory is like a museum at a medical college and illustrates all hideous distortions, and monstrous growths, and revolting diseases, by which humanity can be troubled and afflicted.

A less offensive type of the same ten­dency leads: some poople to find apparent satisfaction in the discovery and proclama­tion of the slightest defects in the habits of good men. Speak to them about a man whose good works every body admires, and they regret that ho is so rough, in his

• manner, or'so Bmooth— that his temper is so hasty, or that ho is so fond of applause. They seem to hold a brief; requiring them to prove the: impossibility, of human per-’ fection.. They detect the slightest alloy,, in the pure gold of human; goodness. I f

j[ihoy hear an organ, they find out-at once which are* the poorest stops. If they listen to a great speaker, they- remember nothing but some slip in the construction of a sentence.

“ Peas ?” .replied the storekeeper,' “ there isn’t a pea in it.” i Taking up a handfull as he spoke 1 he appealed to the company. They I all looked at it, and plunged their

hands into the barrel, and bit a kernel or so, and then gave it as their univer- sal,opinion that there wasn’t a pea in it. -

“ I tell you there is;’ " said the old captain, again scooping up J. handful,
