Goon ADVICE—Persons who contem-
plate writing for the press would do wall
Railroad Forty years Ago.
—.—¢—
1“ A writer in the Hartford (Journal, in a
conVersation recently with some of the elder
railroad officials of that city, derived some
interesting reminiscnces of the early days of
travel in theUnited States. We copy a por-
tion of his-researches in this direction. The
conversation began by a reference to the

trouble and anxiety of mind:

For spongy foolscap of a muddy blue

Then send it off and lest it merit lack,
Enclose the postage stamp to send it back;

An event of national interest and import-
ance took place at Washington, on Wed-
nesday, in a very simple, business like
manner. The British minister, Sir Edward
Thornton, accompanied by Mr. Archibald,
the British consul at New York, called on
Secretary Fish at the department of state,
and handed him a' coin certificate represent-
ing fifteen and one half million dollars in
gold, the amount awarded to the United
States by the Geneva court of arbitration.
There was no speech making or parade,
but the certificate was taken by Secretary
Fish, who wrote out a receipt in fall for the
amount, which he gave to Minister Thorn-
ton. Thus, we may hope, ends all occasion
for controversy between the ;two great
nations. Soon after the English officials
departed, the secretary, accompanied by the
assistant secretary, J. Brancroft Davis,
drove to the treasury ;-' department, where
the certificate was delivered to Secretary
Richardson, and a receipt taken. The
money will now be invested in five per
cent. registered bonds to await the filrther
action of congress.

India. and Owning.
It frequently happens that the faithful in
dividual, who makes a search through all
. lately vacated railroad cars, finds some val-
uable package there and restores it to the
owner. If so, the newspapers are all of them
expected to record the deed of honesty; the
name of the man who made the restitution
is to be handed down in fame, and {if the
man who recieves back his own does not
give the finder a large part of the restored,
he must be circulated as a miserly creature
unfit to have possessions. It does not occur
to everybody that the man who returned
that which he had found was only doing
what he was employed to do, and that any
neglect on his part would be a neglect of
duty. It is said that the servants at some
bf the fashionable resorts psy'tho hotel pro-
prietors for the privilege of working there
and then grow rich'on the fees which they
extort from hungry visitors. But the men,
whom a railroad hires to look through the
cars, are not there for the proceeds; they
are of those whose mission is to save that
which is lost, an in making restitutions they
earn their pay.
In many cases, however, they find proper-
ty, but not owners, and indeed they are not
the only persons who make such discoveries.
Carelessness, although unduly developed in
railroad travel, shows itself all times, and to
carelessness alllsuch matters are traceable.
Almost every one has, himself, or has seen
somebody else find something upon the
street. The notions which prevail concom-
ing the ownership of this found property are
various. Therefore, they are not all correct.
It may surprise some people to konw what
the law of this state has to say on the sub-
ject. .
It makes it the duty of every man who
finds anything to restore. it to the owner at
once, ifhe knows who he is. If the owner
is not discovered the property may be held
awhile. Ifworth less than five dollars it
must be discribcd upon paper with particu-
lars of the finding, and the paper must be
filed with the town .019“... if ,worth, mere
than five dollars it must be advertised; and
these, provisions must be- cm-‘rP-r" "““l
mom-find
within my,” ing the» articles.
If they Ere not claimed at the end of six
months, they; are to be appraised and held
six months more, and ifst the end of that
time, one year from the finding, no one has
come forward to claim them, they must then
be sold. The proceeds of this salc,howcver,
instead of going to the finder, belong to the
town in which the things have been found.
The person who did the finding and kept
the property for a year Is entitles to compon-
sstion’ for 'his trouble, -but beyond that
nothing. ’ - .
In case of a neglect to comply with the
law even in the first particular of advertis-
ing, the finder subjects himself to a forfeit-
ure of the whole, the informer getting one
half and the town the other half, so .that
really the only way to .make another‘s loss
our gain is to watch somebody find the ar-
ticle, and then enter information against him
ifhe does not advertise it.
There are two sets of exempted articles;
one is property worth less than fifty cents,
the other is floating logs in Cogectlcut
river. These latter must be kept six
months, and if not claimed then belong to
the finder. Everything else that is found
reverts to the town it is found in, and the
proceeds of the sales of unclaimed packages
left at railway stations and such places bo-
long to the sciectmcu ofthe town as trustees.
These persons who have been accustomed
'when they have found anything to ”wait
and see if it is advertised” will {take notice
hereby ofthe errors of their ways. Core-
less people, too, may console themselves
that their losses ought to benefit the town,
and to assist everybody—Hartford Cour-ant.

Moosehead Lake, in Maine, has this sum-
mer given back to the world a hermit who
has lived for ten years on one - of its lonely
islands, inhabiting a dry goods box in sum-
mer and a hogshead in winter, and “subsist-
ing on the frugal fare which nature provides
in that region." His name is Kennlston,
and he was formerly well known as a
traveling tinker in Piscataquis county, until
his sudden disappearance gave rise to the
belief that he had been murdered. His re-
turn to civilization has been brought about
by the intercession of his family Blends.
HOW
To be great, whether intellectually or
other wise, is often like a passport to im-
punity;and men talk as if we ought to
speak leniently of the _faults of a man who
delights us by his genius or his talent. This
precisely is the man whose faults we should
be most prompt to mark, because he is the
man whose faults are most seducing to the
world. Intellectual superiority brings, no
doubt its congenial temptations. Let th ,
afi‘ect our judgment of the man, but 1e
them not diminish our reprohation ofhls
offences. So to extenuate the individual
as to apologize for his faults, is to injure the
cause ofvirtue in one ofits most vulnera-
ble parts—Dynamo.
MOW——
A student, undergoing his examinaaion‘
was asked what was the mode of action of
disinfectants. He replied: “They smell so
badly that the , people open the windows,
and fresh air gets in.”
An old Scotch beggar, removing his bon:
net, advanced to a clergyman for a bit of
charity. After receiving a piece of silver, he
said to the clergyman, “Thank ye, sir 0
thank ye i 1’11 gie ye on afternoon’s hearing
for this one of these days.”
Yes, said one, there's been a great miprove-
ment since the Hartford and New Haven
road was opened. It had then very meagre
facilities; the road-bed was poor; had only
scrap rails, which were all the while curling
up and running through the car floors; the
cars were small and tho locomotives
Weak. In fact, it didn’t take much to block
a train in those days. Sometimes an inch
of snow on the rails would do it. Henry C,
White, one of the first conductors on the
road, tells how he and the. baggagemastei
used to sit in front of the locomotive, one on:
each side, and brush off the snow from the
rails with a broom as the train slowly crawl-
ed along. Each had a pail of sand and ‘
sprinkled a handful on the rail when neces-
sary. The driving wheels (engines had only
one pair then)‘used to slip round and round,
and torment them almost to death.
On one occasion a traifi got stuck on the
Yalesville grade by one inch of snow, and
the wood and water gave out before the lo
got out the neighbors, yoked four pair of
oxen to the train and drew it, passengers
baggage and all, into Meriden, with {flying
colors. In the early days of the road the
stage coach drivers used to regard the cars
withgreat contempt. Indeed, thirty years
ago the passenger trains were three or four
hours on the road to New Haven, and the
stage coaches went in' about the some time,
Superintendent Davidson remembers riding
with his father in a carrlrage drawn by two
horses, in 1840, which had a race with a
passenger train near Wallingford, where the
turnpike and railroad are parallel for three
or four miles, and during all that time the
carriage kept even with the train. There
were only two trains each way daily then,
both'carrying passengers and freight. The
old cars were divided into three compart-
ments, opened on the side, and had twenty-
four seats, The locomotives had only twelve-
ineh cylinders, and no cabs to protect the
engineer and fireman from the weather.
The oldest locomotives were the Hartford,
Quinnipac, Charter Oak, New Haven and
Meriden, where combined power would
hardly equal one of the splendid machines
now in use on the road. The Regulus,de-
signed by General Superintendent Reed.
and built in the company’s shops in Hart-
ford one of the newest freight engines, will
pull nearly one hundred cars with ease.
There is no need to dwell upon the contrast
which the splendid roadbed and superb
equipments of to-day present to the facilities
of'thosc early days. Every passenger may
do that for himself. Great credit is due Sup-
erintendent Reed for his able and efilcient
management in putting the road in its pres
out first class condition. Six large stone
bridges have been built under his immediate
supervision , besides the tunnel under Albany
avenue and Main street, a beautiful and sub-
stantial structure, of which any road might
be proud.
’ Be Sociable.
Men who isolate themselves from society
and have no near and dear family ties, are
the most uncomfortable of human beings.
Byron says that "happiness was born a
twin," but the phrase, through pretty and
poetic, does not go far enough. We are
gregarious, and are not intended to march
through life either in singfe’ or double life,
The man who cares for nobody, for whom
nobody cares, has little to live tor. You
must have a heap ofembers to have a glow-
ing fire. Scatter them apart and they will
become dim and cold. So to have a brisk,
vigorous life you must have a group of
lives to keep each warm, afi‘ord mutual en-
you wish to live the life of a man and not
ofa fungus, be sociable be brorhorley be
charitable, be sympathetic. and ,labor earn-
estly for thiqod (if your kind.
Dr. Schweinforth of Berlin found a pigmy
race in Central Africa, perhaps the same
celebrated by Herodotus: ‘
On the upper Nile he was told ofmen
“not over three feet in stature, wearing
white beards, who were skilled in elephant
hunting, and who sold ivory to foreign
traders.” But it was at the court of Munsa,
kin of the Mombuttu, that he first saw an
individual of this diminutive race. “One
morning," says he, “the camp rung with s
Joyous shout, as my people ,brought in a
curious timid little man, the palpable em-
bodiment of myths which have been current
for ever so long." By means of gifts and
kind usage the pygmy wag-ig‘gtgald t'“ '““
. on _. and his
§0$§:3.Y.¥3i.hengthen stated that he was
be
sad ofa family, living half an hour’s
journey from the capital; that his tribe are
called Aces, and that their country lies
south of that of the Mombuttu; that they
have been conquered by the latter, and
settled in the neighborhood of the royal
residence. His height was one metre
(thirty-nine inches), and albeit he had a
pendant belly and very slender shanks, he
performed incredible feats of agilit . On
the next day, several others of his tribe in-
duced by the promise of gifts, paid our
traveler a visit, and they too were measured
and had their portraits taken. It is to be
regretted, however, that during the entire
three weeks’ stay of the doctor at Munss’s
court, he never had the good fortune to see
a pygmy woman. But why did he not go
out to the settlement and visit the ladies
himself? ' ,
g:
Gunman Wonero Woman—A letter to
the Baltimore American affords the informa-
tion that the stout red-faced German women
who arrive in the emigrant steamers, come
from the rural districts and have been
raised to a life of toil, which has hardened
their muscles and made them short land
shapeless specimens of humanity. Most of
their mothers for several generations back
have hired in some daily routine of mascu-
line labor, until the female has lost all her
traces of graceful form and feature. They
are, however, sober and mdustrious people,
simple in their tastes and wants, and are
free from the vanity which is attributed to
the sex of most other countries. There are
very few-of these to be seen in Vienna, ex-
cept at the markets. The laboring women
of the cities are of an entirel difi‘erent
class, and though strong an muscular,
have none of the healthy complexion that
the country women carry with them.
Men who do coarse, laboring work at
home become rough and coarse, and these
women, from constant exposure to the sun
and hard lives they live, become even
coarser in their features than men. Before
they are “out of their teens” they look
like rough and dirty boys in female attire,
though they all wear long boots, and man
of them old and ragged coats. They climY;
up ladders to the tops of five sto buildings,
with buckets of mortar and bric balanced
on their heads, wheel wheelbarrows and
handle the ‘shovel and pick with all the
muscular agility of men. They eat their
meals on the eurbstone and sleep in cellars
and sheds. They have never known any
better life, and seem to be contented. The
rest of the community pays no attention
to them regarding them rather as beasts of
burden, than specimens of humanity.—
“What’s the odds, so we are happy," is the
Viennoise motto, and the general impres-
sion is that these people are as happy in
ghfeir way as those in the higher grades of
l e. '
A party of us were in a stage coach
among the mountains,~ when the horses
seemed to have become unmanageable.
The driver shouted, coaxed, and swore.
We were very much frightened. Some
screamed, some cried, others tried to jump
out, and all were pale with fright—all but
one little girl, who sat quietly by her
mother’s side in the general hubbub.
“Don’t cry mother, don’t or ," she said
patting her mother’s cheek. “ i we upset
we shall fall into God’s arms."
Who of us would not have given any-
thing for the sweet trust of this darling
child?
Perhaps it saved us. The horses became
quieted down. and we reached the hotel in
safety.— Child’s Paper.

THE _ “‘ BARTRAM.”
The Bartram Sewing Nachlnc is the latest produc
tion of inventive genius. It has the
. Simplicity
of the Wilcox d: Glbbs’, but makes the lock-atticll
with a revolving shuttle, which. revolving on its
carrier, is subject to no wear, and requires no oiling
b which the thread would otherwise be soiled; and
t e wear and friction of a “race” is avoided. This
style of shuttle moves with greater
Rapidity
find ease of operation making oM-lbfrdmorestmlm
with the same motion of the foot. than any other
machine.
Ease.
It is the easiest running of the family of Sowing
Machines. Delicate ladies who cannot use others
can operate the Bartram without fatigue.
Best Needle.
It has the best [needle in the world-short and
tralght with a fist shank. By slmplv putting it up
in the needle bar as far as it will 0. it is so right
and never has to be varied for thlc or thin goods.
Durability.
It is, without question, the most durable machine
it the market. as it is so slmplgiconstructed (having
at five working arts), tbs ctlon is reduced to
he lowest on b e degree. All the wearing parts
are made 0 the finest steel, and beautifullyfinished.
General Efiic'leney.
The inventorftm. w. n. Bartram,\ has kept one
important feature in view, vls., that it should be so
constructed as not to limit in usefulness to any
peclalty of work, but to be adapted to both light
and heavy sewing equally well.
We Invite

ow and wonderful Machine, an allow the agent to

Till BLOEFUD LOVER.
Ah, well! John came, tonight and stood
For full an hour beside the bars,
And we two watched, between the tree,
The glimmer 0f the moon and stars.
John acted very strange, I think— _
I wish I knew the reason why;
I really thought he meant to say .
Something, to-night, besides good-bye.
J ohn’s coming here quite often, now:
I’m sure I don’t know why he should—
Although my sister Jenny says
It’s talked about the neighborhood
That he is making love to sue-—
The strangest thingI ever heard ;
For, if it’s true, how queer it is,
That John has never said'a word.
Ah, well! I shouldn’t care so much.
If John himself had told me so;
For then he might have said it all
Upon his own account, you know.
But he’s so bashful, I believe
He’d never dare to speak out plain;
I hope he’ll muster courage up,
And try it when he comes again.
It cannot be that I'm to blame—
I’m sure I’ve helped him all I could ;
I’ve always met him at the bars
And talked as any woman would,
That had a lover whom she liked,
And waited with her heart aglow,
For him to break the subject first,
And then how quick she'd let him know i
But John he keeps a coming still,
Just as he has, for twelve months past;
I've thought, sometimes, it looked as though,
I’d have to speak myself at last.
I’m bound that he shall know the truth,
And, now resolved, I cannot wait
For him to find it out himself,
And so, next time, I’ll try my fate.

The Las Cruces Bordcrer relates this :
A delicate but self-satisfied youth 0 f
great Gotham recently found himselfin one
of our New Mexican coaches. ‘ In leaving
our goodly town, the shoddy exquisite
placed himself carefully on the back seat by
the side of a minature rifle and fishing
tackle, which hccerried as a part of baggage.
As the coach drove over the Acequia bridge ,
the youth saw a picture which caused his
heart to dance with delight. In the shade
of the tall cottonwood trees which line the
banks gamboled a group of young Mexican
girls in the limpid waves of the Aeequin'.
“For God’s sake, Mr. Driver, what are
those beautiful animals 1."
“Them are mermaids,” answered the stage
man, suppressing a strong twinkle in both
eyes. , .
“Oh, hold on just one minute," and out
went exquisite with line and rod, while he
threw the hook towards the laughing group
with a gesture of beseeehing agony.
The gay throng gradually closed in on
the fascinated fisherman as he sat upon the
bank drinking in the rapturous scene before
him,but paying little attention to his line
or bait. Suddenly a blackeyod Peri of
about-fifteen caught the end of his pole,
and, with a dexterous movement, landed
the fisherman into the middle of the Ace-
quia. Every mermaid of the bath humus
diately took a lively interest in irrigating
their captive, who only succeeded in mi-
ing up the Acequia bank after desperate
struggles, and very much in the cendition
of a Norway rat. '
The washerwoman at the next station
declared she never saw so much Rio Brando
mud on one unit ofclothes in her life, and
the young man was heard to mutter often
to himself, “Duced hard fish to catch, these
lexicon mermaids l"
‘JonN Pam’s Amen—In early youth
it was the height of my ambition to the a
sin e-,driver. Later in life, when troubles
mu tiplied upon me and my consistent and
edifying life made me man enemies, the cm-
niburdriver became the o ject ofmy special
envy. He is perched so serene] on his ele-
vated box. On summer days, w on the sun-
shine is a little too severe to be leassnt, he
can obtain an enormous umbre a of some
manufacturer anxious to advertise his goods,
by simply depositing a dollar, which dollar
is returned to him when he brin back the
umbrella. I havenever been ab e to borrow
an umbrella on these terms. And then ifhe
sees an enemy attempting to cross the street
he can pick him up on his pole .and car
him a block or two; if he impales him it
doesn’t matter much—omnibus. drivers are.
never hanged, neither do they marry. Nor
is it necessary'that he wait for his enemy to
attempt to cross the street; he can go for
him on the sidewalk, spear him on it below
ny, lift him from a thirdostory window, ifhe
so choose. His horses aid him willingly.
When you see an omnibus horsefix his eye
on you, beware ; you are it gone man. There
is no escape from his diabolical» intentions,
and if you are particular about these thin
andwant your name spelled right on a
coffin late, see the en aver at once. Talk
ofblac horse cavalry I would sooner face
a whole brigade of them than stand the
charge of a single omnibus horse of any
color whatever. Think what the six Hun-
dred would have done at Blacklavs had
they been mounted on six hundred omnibus-
es drawn by twelve hundred wall-eyed
horses i It ever a charge of this kind occurs,
let me be its Tennyson. But just now my
ambition is to be the jocky of the winning
horse; to ride past the Grand Stand in
streaked and speckled raiment, with my
hand over between the horse’s ears, and
everybody applauding, ladies and all—
How sweet the looks that ladies bend
On when their here full—
ahen you win the feverish-colored gloves for
em. .
N otiations are oing on with a purpose,
and hope soon to e a jockey andwith tho
jockeys stand—the grandeststand of all, to
my thinking.» At present mfiweight is rath-
er heavy, bot I’m drinking athorn water,
and shall either be a losin ghost or a win-
niugjockey in the end.— .17. N. Mum.

If there is one virtue which most com-
mends Christians, it is that of kindness; It
is to love the people of God, to 'love the
church, to love the world, to love all. But
how many have we in our churches ofcrab—
tree Christians, who have mixed such a vast
amount of vinegar and such a tremendous
quanity of gall in their constitutions, that
they can scarcely speak one good word to
you. They iron 3 it impossible to defend
religion except y passionate ebullitions;
they cannot speak for their dishonored Mas-
ter without being a with their 0 pc-
nent; and if anything is awry, whether "he
in house, the church, or anywhere else, they
conceive it to be their duty-to set their faces
like flint, and to defy everybody. They are
like isolated icebergs, no one cares to go
near them. The heat» about on the sea of
for etfillness, until at last they are melted
Chg gone; and though, good souls, we shall
be happy enough to meet them in heaven,
we are precious glad to get rid .of them on
earth. They were always'so unamaible in
disposition, that we would rather live an
eternity with them in heaven than five min-
utes on earth. Be ye not thus. lmitate
Christ in your loving spirit; speak kindly,
act kindl and do kindly, that men may say
of you,“ c has been with Jesus."
