i‘HAN’S PARABLE 0N
MEDIATION.

W’EN I wooz nothin’ but a boy,
And ’bout as knowin’ as s icon,

I dickered some in the dry-goods line,
And bed a pardner called Seth Coon.

Though I hed furnished most 0’ the stock,
And did the hertiest o’ the work,

My pardner would put on his airs,
An’ made me aout s so’t o’ clerk,

I never saw a boy so proud:

Rather than git his fingers s’iled
He’d train his little bfothers in.

An’ work ’em till they fairly br’iled,

Says Johnny Bell and Levi Knapp,
“ We‘d change all that, or hev a fight i"
Says I, “ T’d on‘y make things wuss;
Besides,” says I, “ I ha‘n’t the right i"

I knew cg-zackly how they felt,
Rememb‘rin‘ haow I‘d tanned their hide ;
An” w‘en they talked o‘ likin‘ me
An’ wiShin’ me well, I knew they lied !

Wal, I’d been missin‘ things along,
In fact, the stock got pooty Slim;
I wondered who the thief could be,
\V’en one day Seth owned up ’twooz him .’

" )Ior’n that,” says he, “ I‘m guntuh lean :
I‘ve on‘y gone an’ took my share 1“

Says I, “ We don’t dissolve that way!
I gueSs the Contract ’5 got ye, there i"

Take that .I“ says he, “ you low-lived sneak 1
I‘d deo it ch went to prison 1”

An’ then he up an’ banged my eye—
“All right l" says I, Then I banged his’n.

Will, there we hed it, nip ’n’ tuck,
W’cn up come John, and Levi Knapp ;
They edged araound—an", lost I knowed,
One ‘neld Seth’s cost, an’ t’othcr his cap.

-‘ Go in for liberty 1" says John, , n
“ He wants to rule : don’t mind his blowin !
Says Levi, " Sam, I‘ll buy of you
”S soon ’5 you e‘n git a goin‘l"

Says I, “ Is that your ticket, boys ?
D‘ye call that actin’ on the square?"
“ Ohl hang your techiness," says they,

“Who says Neutrality ain’t fair 1” - .

An‘ then they whined absent the “ blood,”

An’ wrung their han’s an‘ said, “ Good Lord!"
llaow dretficl So’thin‘ mus‘ he done!
Elick, can‘t yeou put in aword’?

“ Let‘s Mediate 1“ says they-a“ right off!"
I bed n‘t time to even grin:

With Law and Gospel on my side,
Imcant to fight, till Seth give in!

Wal, jest as they‘d fixed up their plan
To settle everything themselves,

Seth yelled, “Enough 1" an’ saidhe guessed
We’d put them goods back on the'shelves.

"Jon’than,” says he, “I‘m satisfied!
But not-with them two sneakinicurs ..

That turned from yeon an‘ J usticeteoo, ,
An’ com’c an” stuck to mellke burs.

“ We‘re One again! Just say the word,
We‘ll l’arn ’em Honor right away 1‘)" g
“ No hurry. Seth,” says I, ” Keep cobl'i'
Their time may come some futer day."

«‘g...
Too Much Bell.

In common with most of our citizens,
I was highly gratified when the old bell
of the Congregational Church Was ex-
changed for one of fine tone and decent
size ; and when the Methodists'and Epis
copalians followed our good'example, all
felt sure that we should now, have good
music on marching to church. A con-
ccrt of good bells is an agreeable prelude-
to the joys of public worship." 5"But real-
ly, I begin to think the old adage true.
— Too mite/t of a. good thing‘spotls't't. I
have listened to the ringing and tolling
of these balls on week days,'-:ti_ll:t‘he’pe0u-
liar charm of their music onth'e sabbath
is nearly destroyed. -

The Congregational Church is opened
regularly four or five evenings in the
wet-k, and for every service lbs good-na-
tured sexton rings and tolls just as he
would for preaching. Th‘eSexton of the
Methodist Church does‘i‘idt wish to be
outdone, and so he rings and tolls for ev-
cry kind of meeting. TheEpiScomlians
are more moderate, and Itgive them due
praise. ' ..

But really this ringing and tolling, eve-
ning after evening,just to call together a
hundful’of people to 'a prayer meeting, or
u class-meeting, or for some other exer—
ci~c, Very good and profitable to the at-
icmiunts, but entirely aside from the
tlfpugtus and pursuits of the multitude, is
mirth a burlesque on bell~ringing, and
snakes such a din in our streets in con-
: cction with the screaming of locomotives,
Elie rattling of trains and rumbling of
carriages. that all sacred associations are
oanished, and the only impulse of one
who has any nerves is to rush into the
beli'ry and seize the plaguy Sexton by his
throat and hold him ’till he stops his in-
tolerable Ito/ranging.

There is no need of all this clangor.
The people do not desire it. Three
strokes of the hell would call together
those who desire to attend a prayer meet-
ing, or any other week-day exercise, just
as well as this endless tolling. The cue-x
tom is altogether peculiar to this place,
and is owing altogether to the notions en-
tertained by the sextous as to the amount
of their responsible duties. How the evil
is to be remedied I know not, unless the
people shall agree to laugh tile Sexton:
out of their absurd notions. S. T.

Gutta Porcha & India Rubber

.CFMFN '1' ROOFING.

HIS article has been thoroughly tested by

builders, Architects, and others, and the

experience of years has proved it to be the
cheapest and most durable roofing in use.

We call attention to the following facts:

1st—It is fire and water proof.

2d——From its great elasticity it is not inju-
riously affected by extremes of heat and cold.

3(1—It is adapted to all kinds of Roofs,
whether steep or flat, and is not in want of
constant repairs, as is the case with metal and
other roofs.

4th—The cost is” only about One-Half that
Of Tin, and it is twice as durable.

It is readily applied to 01(1 Shin 1c RoOfs,

without removing the shingles, w rich is a
great dcsidcratum to parties who do not wish
to risk having their ceilings and furniture ru-
ined, while repairs are being made.
, Leaky Tin and Metal Roofs are readily re-
paired with Gutta Pcrchu. Cement, and
prevented from further corrosion and leaking
thereby insuring a perfectly water-tight roof
for many years. (

Specimens of the Roofing can be seen by
calling on the subscriber, at South Norwalk.

RUNNING STITCH
SEWING MACHINE.

It is a PRACTICAL, RAPID, EFFICIENT and
DURARLE SEWING MACHINE, adrpted to a
large proportion Of FAMILY SEWING, or for
manufacturing purposes, and is highly orna-
mental, and is so light and.port-Iblc, (weigh-
ing less titan one pound) that it can be con-
veniently carried in the pocket or reticulc.

Its operation is so very SIMPLE that it re-
quires but a slight degree of judgment to
use it.

By the simple turning of a crank with one

 

 

hand, and guiding the work with the other, ,

it silently yet very rapidly with a COMMON
NEEDLE makes the running stitch EXACTLY
LIKE HAND SEWING, only more perfect and
regular.

t will HEM, GATHER, RUFFLE, SHIRR, TUCK,
RUN UP BREADTIIs, etc., with a singl ’»
double thread on any material adaptecqw
the RUNNING STITCH, from the LIGHTEST
and THINEST up tO two thicknesses of ordi-
nary silk or muslin. The .inaest, usually
the most difficult to stitch by other sewing
machines, being sewed the easiest. For la-
dies' and children’s apparel, and other arti-
cles made of light fabrics, it will therefore be
found almost INVALUABLE.

It is attached to the table like a sewing
bird, and having no tension, and requiring
no lubrication or change of stitch, is always
ready for operation, and such a marvel of
simplicity that a child of six or eight years
can UNDERSTAND it immediately, and use it
SUCCESSFULLY. ‘

It is not at all liable to get out of order.

Each machine is put up in a neat box, ac-
companied-with full and explicit directions
and twenty-five needles.

Sent to any address in the United States
on receipt of an order, inclosing the amount,
or may be collected by Express on delivery
of the machine.

Agents wanted every where, to whom the
most liberal inducements will be offered.

For particulars, specimens of sewing, etc.,
send a Stamp for return postage. Address

From certain published statements of the
leading booksellers from every part of the
country. it would seem that the sales of the
various editions Of Webster’s Dictionaries
are enormous, exceeding many times the
sales of all other dictionaries put together.
W (3 learn that there are five different edi~
tions of our great American lexicographer
now published in England, besides several
English dictionaries which are confessedly
based on Webster. A recent article in the
