DOWN IN THE tuna now.
We strolled down the meadow one morning
in summer, ‘
And gathered some blossoms that grew
by the way ;
And‘ heard ill the lowlands the brown
partridge drummer .
Beat up his brown soldiers to drill for the
day.
The robilts were gay, and the blackbirds
were merry,
And bluebirds were earolling softly ytt
clear;
And far away up in the limb ofa cherry,
The sound of a mother-bird’s talk we
could hear.
The air was aslir with a jubilant chorus,
For all things seemed glad'in that mid-
summer morn ;
There was sunshine behind us, and sunshine
before us, I
And sunshine on wheat fields and rank
rows of corn.
We stopped by the stile, where the fragrant
sweet clover
Held up to the morning its clusters of red
For the kiss of the sun, as a girl to her lover
Lifts up her pink check with her wishes
unsaid. .
We stood hand in hand and looked out on
the meadOWs
That glistened afar in the glow of the
morn,
And noticed the shifting and tremulous
shadow
The blithe breezes made in the rows of
the corn. *
“Did you hear what the wind said i'” I asked
of the maiden '
Who stood by my side, with her hand in
my own, _
She answered, “Ah, no i for the breezes are
laden ‘ '

than twenty times in the last thirty days, ill
the night-watches, he had earnestly im-
plored, with deep contritionfihe pardon of
his sins through Christ, and he felt that, in
answer to his prayers, he had been forgiven.
Mr. Bisscll further stated that then, at Judge
Butler’s request, he recited to him the Con-
fession and Covenant of this church as re-
quired ill the reception of members, to which
he gave his full assent. It was then voted,
unanimously, that Judge Butler be admined

made, the communion Of the Lord‘s Stlppcr

shc ma What she clam.
Last spring, a missionary of the Ameri-
can Sunday-School Union in Missouri
visited a destitute neighbourhood to. organ
ize a new Sunday-school At his first
meeting with them, the people showed so
little interest that he was nearly discourag-
ed. When he proposed to raise money for
their books and papers, no one would give
a cent, except a poor "little girl, who gave
five cents, saying, “It is all I have. I wish
it were more.” ‘
The next Sunday the missionary tried
again. More were present. When he told
what the little girl did. and said, one man
said: “If that girl can give five cents, I can
give five dollars," and he gave it. Then
others came forward, and in a few minutes
$30'were raised. The Sunday-school was
established, and is new one of the best in
the county. A church has already grown
Otlt of it, and great good has resulted in a
settlement where before there was no Sun-
day-school and very little preaching.

Reception of Judxc' Butler to the
‘ Church.
At the conclusion of the sermon in the
Congregational church on Sunday morning
the Bill, the preacher. Prof. Dwight, of E
Yale College, by request Of the Prudential
Committee of the church, read to the con
gregation the following report of their ac-
tion-in receiving Judge Butler to the co m-
munion of the church: '
To run rms'r CONGREGATIONAL cannon.
The Prudential Committee respectfully re-
port that they havc admitted the Hon.
Thomas B. Butler to the Fellowship and
Communion of the church under the cir-
cumslances herein set forth, viz:
They were in viled lb meet at the house cg
J udge. Butler on Monday, the 2d day 0
June, to receive his confession of faith, and,
if judged expedient, to admit him to our
membership. ‘
Present, Messrs. Marvin, Stuart and
Woodward. On motion thclast named was‘
appointed scribe of the meeting, and Rev.
S. B. S. Bisscll and brother George Bentty
being present, were invited to sit -with the
columittce. ,
Rev. Mr. Bisscll then stated that,at Judge
Butler‘s request, he had just had a verysat-
isfactory interview with him, after first
reading a letter addressed to Mrs. Butler by
Rev. Edwm Hall, D. D., which he then pre-
sented to the committee, and of which the
following is a copy, viz:
“ AUBURN, May 22d, 1873.
MY DEAR FRIEND, Mus. Barnum—When
I conversed with your husband,” (alluding
to a recent visit and interview). “ he profess-
ed his faith in Christ, and declared his pur-
pose to unite with the church as soon as he
was able. I doubt not the sincerity, and I
am sure of the uncommon intelligence of
his profession. It is all that Christ requires.
I suppose that he was a child of the Cove
mint, and was baptized in infancy. If so, I
regard him as already a. member of Christ’s
church. I regret muCh that all this did not
occur to me till atterI had left Norwalk,
and'that [did not propane to him to make
the confession formal, to baptize him, if he
had not been baptihed, and to administer the
communion, if he should desire it. But it
did not at all occur to. me. The case was
new to me. He hoped to recover to be able
to do it, and I shared and still share in that
hope. But he may. linger, weak, a long
time; his recovery is precarious. If it
would be satisfactory to him, I wish you
would read this to him—that I regard him
as having already made a confession of
Christ, and, as a true member Of the Church,
entitled to its ordinances. The formality of
a public confession and admission by vote of
the ChurCh, is, in such a case entirely unes-'
sential. Btlt if he has not been baptized,let
it be done. Then,if he pleases, let this let-
ter be read to the Church, and I doubt not
that they will vote to receive him on this
testimony. If he ever gets well enough, he
can make as ample ratification of it as he
pleases. I regret very much that I did not
see it all done before I left Norv’valk. * *
Truly yours, '
- (Signed-,) EDWIN HALL.
'Mr. Bisscll also read a letter from the Rev.
A. C. Adams, pastor of the Congregational
church in Welllersfield, of which the follow.
ing is a copy, viz:
Wnrnnusrmnn, May 25, 1873.
“Mas. BUTLER—Dear Madam—I find in
our Church Record, 1806, Oct. 13th,baplized
Thomas Belden, son of Frederick Butler.
(Signed,) _ ' A. C. ADAMS.”
He then proceeded t6,recite'that in the
interview just held, Judge Butler stated tha
he had never been a sceptic,but that he
had been led, in 1860, to make a thorough
examination of the Gospel as the wayo
salvation, and was as clearly convinced c
its truth as of his own identity ; that he had
since then considered himselfa Christian
and had ofteh-inteuded to make a public
prptession of his faith in Christ, but had.
postponed it; but he said and he repeatedi

city, quite an excitement was created in llll

American. The car was well filled, and “It

him, but was requested by his German fel-
low-passenger to “Put that window (lOWl
right away, quick ! The request was com

moved to the rear of the car, and raised'an-
other window, when his German friend im-
mediately left his seat and requested that
the second window be also..closed.. “No i“
said our American. “I have complied will
your request once, and having left your
neighborhood, can see no justice in youl
demand.” Upon receiving the above reply
the German returned to his seat, and takint
therefrom a revolver, to the utter‘hlenish-
ment of all, and causing no little surprisit
among the ladies, placed the weapon in his.
pocket with the remark, “I’ll shoot that
(ind Yankee if he don’t shut that window i"
The tall, dark man noticed the movclnen:
and heard the remark, and after the German
had again taken his seat, walked down the
aisle of the car, approached the German
from behind, and placed his left arm (a 1n
garrote) around his neck, with his right
hand drew out the pistol, and placed it in
his own pocket, quietly resuming his seat.
to the no small amusement of the other oc-
cupants of the car. When the conductor
'came around,our-tall friend gave him the
revolver, with the request that it be returned
to his German friend upon their arrival at
Toledo, provided he had cooled down.
The young men are becoming every day
more discourteous, so the girls say. They
take their dogs instead of their lady friends
out riding nowadays.- There are advan-
tanes about a dog as a riding companion,
WE must admit. He doesn’t take up much
room. He doesn’t quake remarks when
horses are acting in a manner which re-
quires your whole attention, and get en-
raged when you don’t answer him. He
don’t wear long veils and streaming ribbons
to get into your eyes every time the wind-
blows. He doesn’t grab at the reins ever
time your horse shics or stumbles, an ,

Is it not the duty of every christian and

were spoken by Our Blessed Saviour?
Were they not spokw unto us as a plain

life? Does not this command enjoin upon
us that our plain duty, while in this WOI'ld,

cold for our own? And who is our
neighbor? We think that the term should
be applled, not only to the one, who lives
adjoining to us; but
so to those with

path through life. Love thy neighbor as
thyself. Do. men keep this rule as they
should do? We rejoice to see so many

women,who set forth and illustrate this
rule, in their daily intercourse with the
world. Would that this were the universal
rule with all, but we, regret to see how

Indeed there’s no sense in it, Hester:
It cannOt be ,dbne forthe price;
And I’m not thefiian to be swindled
By takin’ a woman’s advice.
So gohn’ look after the chil’ren;
They need you—I haven’t a doubt—-
An’ don’t act as if ybu were sartin >
I didn't know what I’m about i
For though it’s ag’in the commandments
Your neighbors to covet or rob,
There a’_n’t nothin’ said ag’in makin'
The most of a gover’ment job :
An’ oz I a‘n’t graspin’ or greedy,
Or any way burdened with pelf,
I‘d be a redickerlous niun'y
Ef I didn’t look out fer myself!
Now Hester, just mind your own business
An’ don’t bea preacin’ to me; . -
Fer ef you keep talkin’ till doomsday,
You’ll find that we can not agree :
Well, hev the last word. ef yer want to'.
It’s all very nice to pretend _ ‘
Yer don't like the smell 0’ the money
Yer’ll be willin enough to spend! .

What ?-a terrible railroad disaster 1
An’ how many litres wus there lost ?
Why that was the barnsomest structur’.
Thet ever an engineer crossed!
It a’n’t very otlen, I tell yer,
Yer see such a beautiful span;
An’ thet death should destroy it so'easy,
Wa’n’t down in the architect's plan.
Another bridge wrecked in an instant!
An’ hundreds gone down in the flood!
My God t—how these agonies crowd on
~ Each other, an’ curdle the blood !—
."i‘is HesteLLMldicn i-tbe sterglcr _
An’ scream in their terri WHEEL
An’ I cannot help them, or save them,
Ere death hurls them out o’ my sight!
I did it i—“Twas cold-blooded murder,
Without any plea for defense;
I thought notbf lives that were pnciono,
, When countin’ out dollars and cents!
They’ll find out the flaw in the iron,
An’ what in the-world can I say ?
0 God l—Is that Hester that’s askin’,
“Now John, does dishonesty pay 3‘"
III.
N o it don't. An’ I’ll tell yer what, Rector,
~ I guess that I’ll take your advice;
An’ write to them parties to-morrer
That it cannot be done for the price. '
I’ve just had a dream that went through'mc,
' An’ shook the ’most into a fit, '
An’ I think I won’t make a good Scoundrel
For I a’n‘t got a morsel o‘ grit.
We can’t live in \mswonrorcver,
An’ accidents happen, we know,
That hurry some critters ter judgment
B'efore they’re quite ready to go.‘
But of any bridge I had huilded ,
Right into eternity swung;
Because ofa flaw in the stuff, why .
I’d feel that 'I ought to be hung!
I ra’ally believe. there’s'an angel
A-goin’ round, hammer in hand,
An’ a tryin’ the work we are‘doln'
To see ef it's goin to stand.
An’ ef a man ever is tempted
To‘labor for Satan aspell, .
The bridge that he started for Heavcn,
May let him down quick into Hell!
