' . —This story, good to read in these daysis
told of Nantucket, a generation ago:
It was a very severe winter, and the ha r-
bor had been frozen four weeks. The coal
in store had long been exhausted, and there
was much suffering from lack of fuel. Ev-
en the fences had been torn down and burnt
to eke out the scanty supply of wood. To
the great delight of the townspeople the ice
broke up one fine morning, and a schooner
laden with coal was seen approaching.
There was much cxcrtcment, and before the
vessel was moored a coal dealer boarded her
and eagerly addressed the honest Quaker
skipper, Captain Gilford. “Wall ‘Cap’cn,”
said lto“you’ve about hit it this cruise.
guess I’ll Dev to take yur lull cargo. S’pose
ou’ll want more'n the usual price, $7 a ton.
Tirol I like to do the square thing by a friend,
and I’ll give you $12 a ton for it.” “Friend,”
said Captain Gilford,“thee can have one ton
of my coal if thee likes for $8, but only one
ton; all must have a chance.” Just then
one of the richest men in the place joined
them saying : “I want ten tons of your coal 1
at your own price—name it. ”I have suffer-
cd enough for once.” He received the same
answer, and so did all—one ton for each
and 558 as the price of each ton. No love
of gain, no solicitation, no regard for indi-
Vitluals could move honest Captain Gilford

W Our friend Rev. J. J. Woolley, Pas-
tor of the Mcriden Congregational church,
is spending his annual vacation in this
vicinity, making his head-quarter: with
friends at South Nor‘. 'alk. He writes as
follows to the ltIeridcn Recorder:
“From where I sit, fifteen miles in the
distance, rise the bluffs and sand banks of
Long Island ; whilejust at my feet or about
a hundred feet below me flow the blue
waters of Long Island Sound,flecked by the
white sails of constantly passing vessels and
ploughed by the prows of large and elegant
steamboats From where I am sitting, the
Sound stretches out before me for twenty
miles as far-as the eye can reach, while the
Islands that lie ranged in a row in front of
the harbor, likca regiment of soldiers drawn
up in line of battle—look like green play
grounds 'or lawns left as emerald gems at
the very gatgvay of this lively and delight—
ful spot. Norwalk boasts of no extensive
caravansaries with their attendant race
courses, gambling dens, pickpockets, thieves
and snobs; nor can we catch deer by the
all or rush over the cataracts of Phantom
falls; but she can boaSt of as pleasant sea
views and drives, of as delightful groves,
sea food and clam bakes, as any other town
we know of. Taking all things together we
are having a nice time down here by the
salt water. It is true, we have notbccn into
it, but we have seen itand sniffcdvits breezes.
We have not taken any 'idcs as yet, down
upon the shore, nor any sails upon its bosom,
but we expect to if the time ever comes
when we feel like it, and we know that time
will come if we live, and if we don’t, we
shan’t miss them. “To haven’t done- much
else but sleep, as it was our intention to do
as much as possible of this when we left
home, if We had to take a snooze like the
one Rip Van Winkle took, and notwakc up
until we got rested. This, however, will
not be necessary, as we already begin to feel
something like a return of the old fire and
spring of our younger days. The fact is,
we never expect to be old. It is all nonsense
for a man,to look towards old age until he
is overfifty.”

£33? A few disappointed office-seekers
have made a great fuss because President
Grant appointed some of his relatives to
oilicc, and charges that all his wife’s connec-
tions had been given lucrative federal otilces.
In answer to this charge, Mrs. Grant’s broth-
er, General F. T. Dent vrites to a friend as
follows :~— '
“ NO one of the name of Dent holds an
ofllce conferred by Grant. I am the. only
one of four brothers who holds a federal
oliicc. Iain an officer of the ariny,'a posi<
tion I have held for twenty-six years. My
brother, Judge Lewis Dent, is spoken of for
Governor of Mississippi, so I hear. The
people of Mississippi have as much the priv-
ilege of choosing for themselves a Governor
as the State of N cw York has, and are as
free from the dictation of General Grant in
their selection, as I presume New York
would be.”

W The New ork Citizen (democrat)
has come to thefollowing sensible conclu-
sions ; “We hold that the democracy, to sue-
ceed, must discard old issues, and bring it-
self fairly up to the times. It is useless to
quarrel over questions that force of circum-
stances has settled; our Sbnthern brethren
placed a whip in the hands of our enemies
to dr'vc us naked through the world; the
rebel States of their own motion went‘ out
of the Union, and they had to be brought
back by ‘military despotism,’ or they would
never have come back at all. It was to
the military tyrannies of Sherman, the vio-
lence of Sheridan, the impositions of Han-
cock, and the persistencics of Grant, that we
owe the restoration of the Union on any
terms. '

cd a few days ago with her mother's coach-
nian._ The loving couple drove in a farm
wagon to another town, and were made
man and wife. . The bride at once returned
.s on sto‘cls'\
home and announced her change of- condi—
tion, which produced a. scene. Shortly af-
ter her arrival, and while the family were
grieving over what they considered disgrace
the coachman appeared,probably fully pre-
pared to kneel and be forgiven. That he
did not kneel is to be attributed to his rapid
ejection from the house. He is represented
to be an ignorant fellow, possessed of no un—
usual share of good looks. All endeavors
to separate the bride from her husband
proved nnavailing, and her family were
forced to buy the man off. It is understood
that $10,000 has been offered him to relin-
quish all claim to his bride and leave the
country. It is expected that he will accept

THE NOVEL'I'Y
IS THE ONLY WRINGER THAT HAS THE
Patent Flange Cog-Wheels
ON DOTII ENDS 01‘ I'm-l DOLLS.
’l‘hc cogs on one end of a roll are set relatively m:-
TWEBN those on the other and of the SAME ROLL, virtu-
ally forming a
Domain; GEAR,
and thereby nearly doubling the purchase.
(The importance of setting gears in this position is
not generally understood.) - ,
This result can be obtained by putting an the gears
on on: as» of the Wringer. But in so doing it is
necessary to pin the rolls together to keep the cog-
whecls in gear; also, (when the PATENT FLANGE is
not used) to put a block between the bearings of the
rolls to prevent the gears being pressed together close
enough to bind. .
The Patent Flange Cog-Wheels, when used on both
ends of the Wringer in connectinn Wlth but oxnrnrs-
stmn sonnw, allow the rolls to separate at: iii-nun mm
as one end or the other will always be in gear, If a
pacesure screw was used at both ends, this would not
the case, because one end of a roll would have no
contra. over the other end. But with on pressure
screw In the MIDDLE, the pressure is equalized, for if
one end is forced u , the other end is thereby forced
down. The Cog-w eels cannot be thrown out: of
gear on both ends of the Wrmgcr at the same time,
unless the ressnre is taken off.
The NO ELTY is fastened to a tub or box by a
Patent Curved Clamii, which has an equal bearingon
a tub the “mole cngth of me erngcr.
Other Wringers are merely fastened to a stave at each
end and are thus liable, to wrench the stave from their
proper position and ruin the tub.
The Cog-wheels, Thumb-screws, &C-, are nicely
galvanized. Soldeverywhere.
