with all the fervor of a Catholic, with the’
difference, that his belief is one alwaysof in.

ing from Israel. The young Israelites are
mingling and'mi'xing w'ith'Gentiles ; they are
adopting their habits and customs, and little
by little Judaism is loosing its hold upon
them. ._ They. neglect the observalpces- of, the
church, they. modify. its doctrines; and doubt
as to whether. . its usages have _ a binding
force. In short, the “hickory Jews" are in
the majority, and the'orthodox ' are groaning
in spirit. ‘ThefNatha‘n murder is almost for-
gotten. The murdered man was an Israelite
of the strictest style. He kept Saturday. and
in all the Observances of the church was as
strict as a Rabbi. It was the great grief of
his life that :his‘ sons were, every one‘ofjthem,
Iib'eral.‘ They ‘intermarried' with the Gen-
tiles, they associated with them, and in every ‘
way refused to have any of that exelusiveness
which is necessary to the perpetuation of
such a system. The young Israelites of the;

A Norwalk school boy, who is spending
his vacation in Maine, sends us the following
account of
_ :,A Trip to Bethel.

«We started from the deck at South Nor-
walk on a fine Thursday morning, on the
steamer Arrowsmith, and after a delightful
sail reached Market Street pier, when we at
once proceeded to the steamship Eleanor,
which lay at the next dock, getting a cargo

 

Leaving our minor baggage in the state-
room, we perambulatcd until 4 o’clock p. m.,
the time for starting. At that hour the haw-
sers of the steamer were cast loose and we
sailed gaily away up the the Sound.

About 10:30 p. m. we were of the Nor-
walk light, with a very smooth sea, and at 5
the next Emorning we were oil Point Judith
and the Rhode Island and Massachusett
coasts, which doubtless many of our gay and
“binding" sons of Neptune will long remem-'
bcr‘nh the place where they were busily en-
gaged leaning over the side of the boat in-
tently watching the mackerel, or longing to
be on shore again. There we got a pretty se-
vere shaking up, the sea being rough, and
the long, heavy swells making many of the
passengers feel rather uncomfortable, and
forcibly reminding them of Mark Twain’s
lugubrious “Oh! My!"

It was really amusing to see the abundance
of room at the breakfast table. The night
before we were not able to find a seat at the‘
first table, but that morning we had noidifii-
culty. whatever, althoughwe were some half
hour late. At 8 a. m. we entered Vineyard
Sound, where the water was much smoother,
and where our means began rapidly to con-
valesce; - =-At '99. a.‘ m. we reached Vineyard
Haven, where we had a beautiful (i) view of
several miles of hot sand. Passing around the
point we came in sight of the far-famed cot-
tage city of the sea, Oak Bluffs. Proceeding,
on around Cape Cod, we reached Portland a‘tr
half-past five the next morning, being just,
one minute ahead of the Boston boat. Get-j
ting breakfast we went to the depot of the-
.‘Grand Trunk. Railway and waited for the
quarter pastzcight train, and getting-aboard
at»10:'20 it. - m-‘wé. found ourselves , at 3 Bethel;
with'a’ivl‘llk of four"mil‘e’s before 'us ‘ere we
'reachedEE“Locke- Manor," known to-Eseveral

kindly invited to :ride, ‘which. invitationryou
maybe Sure \ve werenot‘slow to accept, be;
ing at that time not particularly ~ anxious
about the walk. _ 1
' At twelve we reached our .‘journey's end at
the Locke House, to which we :wOuldaIivise
all to come who are weary: of citydieats,
noise and confusion, and who desire to find
cold weather, a glowing birch fire in Midsum-

soeiable people. -

After dinner we strolled around to see the}
place and to enjoy the cool, stimulating
mountain air. Bethel is a beautiful town,

river, which flows-endgwinds through the’
center and cuts‘thl: tbfvv‘ quinine. two parts,

To any love (if; films-fl would. recommend?
Bethel as a place where all their desires and;
anticipations are met. It would seem rather: 2

dull to one who had, for a long time, been;

of? alarge' village or a city, but I can assure

Slidu'itisa moist agreeable and restful sunrises. '
Then, too, the evenings are passed very
pleasantly. .The‘days aremhiefiy occupied by'
fishing or berrying, and the evenings in vari-
ous pastimes. The trout fishing is very good
in this part of the country. Two weeks ago

two of my friends and myself went up the

river" about eleven miles, and after a three

hour’s’ fish, succeeded in bringing home a nice

mess of one hundred trout, all caught with

steel hooks, and not as is often the case, with

silver ones. A week after, we went to the

same place and caught one hundred and forty

more. They were not large but of the best

sizes, the largest being. about ten inches in

length, yet the‘. smaller they are the more ten-

der and delicious their flavor.

;. Lastweek a party of four of as planned

an excursion to walk to lake Umbagog. At

2:15 p. m. on Thursday afternoon, we started

on our little pedestrian journey. We walked

up to a little hotel on Bear river, about seven

miles away,“and there took' our supper; The

stage coming up just then we concluded to

ride the rest of the way, as we‘did not much

relish sleeping four in the same"room——as we

found we would be obliged to ' do, the house

being crowded. So, after arranging every?

mountain road. We had afiji'elegant ride, es-
pecially through the Grafton Notch. It was
about half past eight at night, and we could
see the clouds settling down on the tops of
the mountains, and the, darkness as it slowly
came along. We reached Umbagog about
midnight, and pftcr‘ getting pleasant rooms,

.That famous “ Registrar, Statistical Secre-
tary alid‘An'nalist," Rev. W. H. Moore, has
just published his annual report of the Con-
gregational churches, ministers,charities, &c.
of Connecticut, which has special interest
for this Centennial year. A correspondent
sends us the following summary,of the report,
some of. the statements of which are very
striking:

“ Connecticut has 295 Congregational
churches, all orthodox, in name at least, and
belonging to the 'old' ‘ established order.’ 30

' elders they,fthatfl36 of them were establish-

ed in the 17th century, of which 21 are

“Of these, Hartford county has 4; New

Success—The Detroit Post makes the fol-
lowing vcry pertinent suppositions: .
Suppose Mr. Hayes had to meet 'a suit a
week hence, which he had put off unanswer—
ing, month after month and year after year—
a suit charging him with fraud and embezzle-
mentl
Suppose Mr. Hayes had been charged by
Mr. Greeley with electing a Republican gov-
ernor of Ohio by means Of a fraudulent count
of the vote at Cincinnati; with having issu-
ed a circular ordering his friends in the rural
sections to let him know how many fraudu-
lent votes he would need to count in order to
carry the state! '
Suppose Mr. Hayes had been the legal ad-
viser of the Credit Moblier swindle!
Suppose Mr. Hayes had written a letter ac-

 

'knowleding the receipt of $5,000 from Boss

Tweed to be used for election purposes!
Suppose Mr. Hayes had written a. letter to
Boss Tweed, calling him his “dear friend,”
just asSeymour called the draft 'rioters Of
New, York his “friends," asking Tweed to
give an office to a “ useful Ahworker" in -
Tweed’s party I '

Suppose Mr. Hayes had gone to conven-
tion after convention with Boss Tweed; sat:
on the same platform with him; belonged to
the same executive, not nominal. and formal
committee, but executive committees; and
had refused, when proofs of‘Tweed's guilt
were exposed beyond dispute in. the public
prints,'to be present at the meeting for the
purpose of overthrowing that 1“ ring” of
thieves and scoundrelsl

j And then the Boat asks: Does anybody be-
lieve for a moment that anybody would do
anything but laugh and sneer at Hayes if he
should set up as a “ reformer" or should dare
to talk about “reform” in the face of all these
facts? The hypothetical cases suggested by
the Post would, indeed, make any man ap-
pear ridiculous as a “reformer," and yet,
if we are not mistaken, a governor, not of
Ohio, and a presidential candidatenot Hayes,
with just such a record as is indicated by the
suppositions Of the Post, is appealing to the
snfirages of- tbc people as a *“ reformer.”
Pretty thin and pretty impudent, isn’t it?

AN INEXPENSIVE Luxunm—The genera
idea is that hammocks ‘are only for the
wealthy, ' “the stylish," the professional
time-killers. It is a great mistake. Every
well-tO-do farmer, every ,owner V of a cosy vil-
lage home, every member of a city stay-at-
home club who commands a spot big enough
to swing one, mould; have a hammock
Very good ones maybe bought for $2.50. to
$4; and the lastAgriculturist' has a cntshdw-
ing how they could be hung—where more is
a good afternoon shade, and if intended in
part for children’s use, so low that small
children can get into it by the aid of .a box or
low stool, and over soft ground, 'so that the
numerous tumbles that are probable will be
harmless. If no other place is available, it
may be hung between the pillars of a shady
veranda, a. place well enough for the Holdér
pcOplc'who use it, but undersirable for 'chil-

 

 

_ ‘ 5 . 1dren,‘ on account of the lack of soft turf, as
libidliY‘flff’lhe people! enjoying the scenery On' the lake for two or well a's'for the noise which accompanies .its

use by the youngsters. The hook which sup-
ports the head end should be 6% feet from the
floor, and that for the foot end 32 feet, and
these proportions should be observed where-
ever it may be hung, to secure the most de-
sirable curve for the ease of the occupant.
Another point to be observed: the head end
should be fastened to the book by a rOpe less
than a foot long—just enough to properly at-
tach it, while at the foot is a rope 4} feet
long. This gives the greatest freedom for
swinging the lower part of the body, while
the head moves but little. This is a point
which need not be observed in a hammock
for children, who think more of it as a swing
than as a place for comfortable repose. When
trees serve for supports, ample provision
should be made to prevent injury to the bark,
by means of stout canvass or heavy bagging
between the ropes to which it is suspended
and the bark. If thehanging be so arranged
that the hammock can be taken in, during
long storms, it will last much longer.

TILDEN’s DISLOYAI.TY.—The Ogdensburg,
N. Y., Journal of Thursday says :~—“ Some
unscrupulous partisan recently denied that
Tilden refused to sign the call for the great
Union meeting in New York, in 1861, but
Gen. Dix has settled that point by writing the
following, which gives information within
his own knowledge ;—

SEAFIELD, FORT HAMPTON, N. Y., July,1876.

Dear Sir :——ers is received and I hasten
to reply to it. Mr. Tilden did not unite in
the call for the great Union meeting in New
York after the attack and surrender Of Fort
Sumpter. Biit he refused to attend it, though
urgently solicited to by one of his owu polli-
cal friends. The meeting was called for the
purpose of sustaining the government, and
to provide for sending troops to Washington,
which was thought tO be in danger of an at-
tack by the confcderates. This fact was pub-
licly stated when Mr. Tilden was a candidate
for governor in 1874. I am, dear sir, truly
yours, JOHN A. Dlx.

' The late FRED. S. (1022st thus fac‘etiously
gave vent to his poetic fancy on being pre-
sented Wlth a proud,top-knotted chanticleer :

“ To My Poland Rooster."

“ 0h thou,. whatever title please thine ear,”
fie-chicken, rooster, cock or chantileer;
Whether on Frances’ flag you flop and flare.
0r roost and drowae in Shelton’selbow-chair;
Or wake the drones, or please the female
kind;

And cluck and strut with all your hens be-
hind,

As symbol-teacher, time-piece, spouse to you
Our praise is doubtless, cock-a-doodle doc.

 

Obiperous Sultan, Pharaoh, Caesar, Czar,
Deep shattering songstcr, feathered morning
star; V
Many-wifed Mormon, cock-pit Spartacus,
Winner alike of corn and hearty curse;
Sir Hnrum Scarum, Knigth by crest and spur,
Great, glorious, gallinacious Aaron Burr.
How proud am I,—now proud you corn-fed
flock -
Of cackling houris arc—of the old cock.

Illustrious exile! for thy kindred crow
Where Warsnw’s towers with Morning glo-
ries glow,
Shanghai and Chittagong may have their
day.
And even Dunstan-rooms fade away;
Buathou shalt live, immortal Polack, thou,
Though Russias’ eagle clips thy pinons now.
To flap thy wings and crow with all thy soul,
When freedom spreads her light from Pole to
Pole.

Judge and jury have been worryin over a
dog casein Memphis, Tennessee. othing
could have been simpler than the issue of the
fact. A negro stole a Newfoundland dog;
but the law in regard to property in dogs al-
ways has been past finding out. The prison-
er‘s counsel argued that under the common
Iaw,do -stealing was not a crime or an indict-
able 0 ense, and that no statute exists in
Tennessee making dog-stealin a punishable
offense, such as larceny. Ju ge Adams held
that the stealing of a dog was not a larceny
or an indictable offense, and that the demur-
rer of the defendant to the indictment on
this ground was good. The Attorney Gener-
al then raised the point that the collar on the
dog was personal property, and the defendant
could be held to answer for theft; but the
adrOit attorney on the other side retorted
that the negro took the dog, and that it was
the dog, and not the negro, that was respon-
sible for the collar. The prisoner was finally
discharged. Now, the old question comes
up. _If a dog is not property, is the dog tax
constitutional ?

Influence of the Stage.

The following testimony on this subject is
by Mrs. Fanny Kembie, and is given in- the
Atlantic Monthly for July:

Amid a tumultuous storm Of applause, con-
gratulation, tears, embraces, and a general
joyous explosion of unutterable relief at the
fortunate termination of my attempt, we went
home. And so my life was determined, and
I devoted myself to an evocation which I
never liked or honored, and about the very
nature of which I have never been able to
come to any decided opinion. It is in vain
that the undoubted specific gifts of great ac-
tors,actresses, suggest that all gifts are given
for rightful exercise, and not suppression; in
vain that Shakespeare's plays urge their im-
perative claim to the most perfect illustration
they can receive from histrionic-interpreta-
. tion; a business which is incessant excite-
ment and factitious emotiom, seems to me
unworthy of a man; a business which is pub-
lic exhibition, unworthy of a woman.

At four different periods of my life I have
been constrained by circumstances to main.
‘tain myself by the exercise of my dramatic
faculty; latterly, it is true, in a less. painful
, and distasteful manner by reading, instead
of acting. But though I have never, I trust,
been ungrateful for the power .of thus help-
ing myself and others, or forgetful of the ob-
ligation I was under to do my appointed
~ .work conscientiously in every respect, or an-

 

- mindful of the precious .good regard Of so

' many kind hearts that it'llias: won'for me;
though I have never lost one iota of my own
intense delight intbe act of rendering Shakes-
peare's creations, yet neither have I ever pre-
sented myself before an audience without 9.
mm king feeling of reluctance, or withdrawn
from their presence. without thinkin' ' g the ex-
citement I had undergone unhealthy, and the
personal exhibition OdiOus. '

History of as Log Cabin'Sunday-

School. , .

Missionary Densmore, of the American
Sunday-School Union, reports: “Seven years
ago I organized a Sunday-school in' a little
log school house, without doOr or windows,
twenty miles beyond any religious organiza-
tion. About six months_after, Ivtook a min-
ister with me to preach the first semen in
the settlement. Seeing the children shiver-
ing with cold in the cheerless house, we held
our meeting outside, around a blazing log
fire. About a year ago they heard another
sermon, which, with the annual visits of the
mirsiona'ry, greatly encouraged them. _Now
they have a large frame house, well finished.

‘-‘ Yesterday, a man from that settlement,
'liearlyEOne- hundred miles away, called on me
’and said: ‘ Oh, you ought to visit our San-
day-school now! The Lord has done great
things for us up there in the woods. He
gathered more than fifty'of us into his last
winter; and we have preaching every Slin-
day.’ n ,

Now, it ’cost only $25 to‘ establish that
Sunday-school seven years ago, and thus to
lay the foundation of a Christian, community
in the infancy of a settlement. ‘Who can
tell what it would cost to erect it now, had
it been neglected in its beginning. This is
the object and sphere of the American Sun-
day-School Union, to lay foundations, in all
new settlements, for all Christians to' build
churches on. . . _ , .

I was called on,'last _Sunday,.:to' visits Sun-
day school, about twenty-five miles distant,
whose minister and superintendent were both
converted in a Sunday school‘for'g’anized by
me. They have lived, in three“ ‘diflerent‘set;
tlements, laboring together for seven years,
and have organized from one to three Sunday
schools in each, and now that minister
preaches in them all.e—0hurch Um‘ofl.‘

Inmxsn WIRE Rornsw—Commodme Shu-
feldt has ordered the proper authorities-of
the Boston navy yard to make several 7-inch
steel wire hawsers. These will probablfi‘ be
the largest wire ropes ever made. 'The avy
Department has use for immense hawsers to
tow monitors and vessels in distress. They
are ’put on board the men-of-war for use
when required. The usual appliance is a 12
inch hemp rope, but it swells when wet, and
gets . ve . heavy by. absorption of water.
The stee wire'hawsers will be seven inches
less in diameter, much lighter, non-absorb-
ent, more pliable and durable, end in every
respect better. This is a curlous, and, in
fact, wonderful advance in the apphcatlon cf
steel and iron to commerelal uses. A hemp
hawser twelve inches thick lsa wonderful
thing in itself, but a steel wire hawser ’five
inches in thickness, better answering the
same purpose, is something fruitful of
thought to the student in shipbuilding and
rigging—N. Y._Bull_¢tz'n. '
The German'government, conscious of its

power, is rapidly acquiringa formidable naval

1873 provided for increasing the numberpf
ships bysevcn ironclads, two avises or dis-
pateh boats, four gimboats, and twenty-eight
torpedo vessels. Of these there are still-in
construction one ironclad frigate—fthe Great
