' WESTON.
A sad and rather sudden death occurred
here last Monday evening, 12th inst., at the
Military institute. Charles Besson, a boy in
his 16th year. after a very brief but painful
illness, then and there expired. The doctors
declare it a : se of acute periostitia,whatcver
that maybe ; very rare in medical practice
but almost beyond aid when it does set in.
The boy was universally liked. His inter-
ment took place on Wednesday, 14th. Four
of his school-mates acted as pail-bearers. One
of the school buildings is very tastefully
draped in mourning with the letter “B" con-
spicnously displayed towards the public
road. In his whole career as principal of
the schocl and out of more than 600 scholars
this is the first instance of death which has
occurred at the Weston Military Institute of

A meeting of the subscribers to_ the stock

held Monday 12th. Messrs. A. S. ‘IInrlbutt,
F. F. Morebduse, Morris Ketcbum, Miller

thoughts of
E. Lees, B L. \VOOdworth, Thomas Ii. Lees
and Chailcs Gorliam, were chosen a board of
Directors. At a subsequent meeting of the
Board, Mr. A. S. Hurlbutt was elected
President, and E .7 J. Taylor, Secretary and
Treasurer. The President reported all the
stock ($5,000) subscribed. It was proposed
to proceed immediately with the work of
laying out the grounds, and to levy an
assessment of forty'per cent. to defray cx-
penses. Citizens appear to manifest interest
in the undertaking, and the prrjectors in-
dulge the belief that. they will meet with
perfect success. The grounds comprising
twenty acres are less than thrEchiarters of a
mile from the village center, and may be
approached by four highways.
Monday was the day selected by the
iiayestb Wheeler Guard to raise the flag
pole preseirtd to them by Mr. F. Morehouse,
in honor of the new President. A the crest
of the hill above the “Diggins,” west of the
vilagc a hole was dug, and at two o’clock
the boys assembled to carry out their design.
The pole, 82 feet long and straight as an ar-
row, was of hickory, and objection was made
to it. on that account, some arguing that the
quality was more appropriate for a demo-
cratitic organization than for a Republican.
After deliberation it was decided that
lepublicaus could lay claim to hickory with
as good grace as the opposition who had
forfeited such claim, and all hands set. about
placing it in an upright condition. Owing
to the wet, lowering weather, this was a
work diflicult to accomplish, but it was done
at last, and well done. During the raising,
crowdso‘.‘ ’i‘iltleiiites assembled on the east
end of the viiage bridge, and yelled and
booted as is their custom, even when the
glorious Stars and Stripes were hoisted to
the top of the pole,- and they only ceased
when the cannon began a salute in honor of
the 38 Stripes-the same guu,by the way,
which was spiked in November, 1864, by a
fiendish democrat, to prevent its being fired
in honor Of the Second election of President
Lincoln. At the conclusion of the proceed-
ings, Mr. Moreliouse trotted out some
fine sweet cider for the boys, as a sort of re-
minder of “Tippecanoe, and Tyler 100,”
times. In the evening at the store of Mr.
D. L. Staples, the. following resolutions were
adopted :—
IViiui-iuas,—Both parties, 'by their_ Sena-
tors and Represenatives, agreed to abide. by
the decision of the Electoral Commisston,
and so to protect the peace and welfare of
the country. therefore. ‘
Resolved, That both parties are honorably I
bound to recognize the Constitutional author-
ity of the President . _
Resolved, That the policy declared in ilIS
Inaugural, in favor of permanent pacification
of the South, with equal protection to all
citizens; of a thorough reform in the Civil
service, and of an early return to speCIe
payments, commends itself to the country
and is entitled to the fairest. trial.
Resolved, That we shall stand by the Pres-
identin.the exercise of his Constitutional
rights, and that we shall regret any dispost-
:iou to embarrass or obstruct his policy of
conciliation and reform as tending to inter-
rupt and postpone the restoration of national
confidence so happily begun, and so essential
to the prosperity of all sections and all
classes. . _ . _
Resolved, That the excretses partiCipatcd in
this day in the raising of the national ciublem
and its salutation by the discharge of guns,
are indications of our devotion to the princt-
ples of peace, and of our rediuess to main-
tain them by any and all honorable means.

so acceptably fills and to appoint Mr. Belts in
his place, a remonstrance was gotten up and

No one can be seen who ever saw either the
petition for the appointment of Mr. Betta, or
for the removal of Captain Burr, and no one
of course, can be found who signed either
the one or the other; and yet the local papers
keep up the sensation as if they had found a

An Irish lawyer, Mr. Donibuc, a Catholic
disciple of Father Mathew, has completely
outgcncralled the whiskey-sellers, and the
officials elected by them in Buffalo. The old
plan of individual prosecutions for violations
of the liquor laws failed in Buffalo, as they
live nearly everywhere for twenty-five years
past. or ever since they were enacted. Mr.
Donihuehit upon the plan of procuring a
mandamus, ordering all the Police and Excise
Commissioners to show cause why they did
not do their duty and enforce the Sunday
law upon the liquor-sellers. This demand
was sustained by the Supreme Court, and an
order issued to the officials to show cause for
their neglect of duty. The next Sunday
those officials shut every dram-shop in the
city, and watched the back door entrances
like cats hungry for a breakfast of dcviiled
mouse. ——E.ra2m'ner and Chronicle.

Archdeacon Gray, one of the dignitaries of

for Americans. He said in Chicago the other
day, in speaking of the national politeness:
“ Last night. for instance, we lost our way
couldn‘t find the bozo], and seeing a tat-
tered, poverty-stricken man, asked him the
way. He took the gretest pains to show us,
and directed us plainly, and did not hang
around in hope of a reward, as in other coun-
tries- In fact, he refused to take a shilling
for his trouble. And then the gallantry
shown the ladies—that strikes a visitor
strangely. Ladies are everywhere treated so
courteously by all classes.” The archdeacon
is travelling with his wife, an lis attended by
a curious valet in the person of a Chinaman.

The red fish of Wallows lake in California
are described as being blood red in color,

is said there are only four lakes in which
this fish is found, Payettc in Idaho, a lake in

—-Instances are constantly occurring where
the uncalled for interference of some relative
or professed friend between husband and wife
has ut erly destroyed forever the peace and
happiness of a family. And the most bate-
ful feature of these impcrtincnt intermed-
dlings is that theyarc generally committed
by what are called “good" people, and pro-
fessedly from conscientious motives. Many
great crimes are attended with destructive
consequences. "What therefore, God has
joined together, let no man put asunder,” is
a. command which should be obeyed in all
its comprehensiveness. It does not prohibit
merely the entire separation of husband and
wife. It applies to every act on the part of
anyone calculated in theleast degree to disin-
tegate or weaken the bond of complete union
between them.

Tm: OLDEST STONE TOOLS YET FOUND.—
Onc of the problems which geologists now
propose to themselves is to ascertain definite-
ly whether the existance of man before the
close of the, glacial epoch can he certainly
proved. The method of proof consistsjn the
examinations of formations older than those
bones or implements of human origin. Mr.
S. B. J Skertebly thinks he has done this.
In the valley sides around the town of Bran-
don, in England, “ are preserved patches of
brick-earth, which are valuable as affording
the only working clay in the district. When-
ever these beds are well exposed they are
seen to underlie‘flie chalkey boulder clay of
glacial age Of this there cannot be the
slightest doubt, for the glacial bed is typical-
ly developed and not in the slightest degree
reconstructed. In these beds I have been so
fortunate as to find palmolitbic implements in
places, and in one of them quaptities of bro-
ken boncs and a few fresh water-shells. The
implements are of the oval type, boldly chip-
ped but without any of the finer work which
distinguishes the better made palmolithic im-
plemcnts. Although it would be rash to lay
too great a stress upon the characters of these
implements, it is nevertheless worthy of re
mark that they do not belong no the crudest
type. Equally rough specimens are found in
the gravels above the boulder-clay, and even
among neolithic finds. Still these very an-
tique implements certainly do seem to belong
to an earlier stage of civilization, if we re-
gard them as examples of the best workman
ship of their makers.” These, he thinks, are
the oldest specimens of man’s handiwork
known, and prove him to have lived before
the culmination of the glacial epoch.

A gentleman living near New York recent—
ly had a barn raising on his place, in which a
number of his neighbors assisted. In accord.
mice with old custom lie brewed for them
several gallons of punch, upon which. being
an expert be expended much labor and
thought. When the ingredients had been
combined to suit his taste he carried the
punch in a bucket to the scene of operations
and invited the men to partake of it. They
excused themselves for a few moments, wish-
ing to complete their work, whereupon he
placed the bucket upon a bench and retired.
When about half an hour afterward the men
prepared to do justice to the punch, they
discovered to their consternation that the
bucket was empty. The thief proved to be
an Alderney heifer who was found in a very
disgraceful state of intoxication. She had
scented the fragrant concoction and drained
it to the last drop. The animal recovered
the next day, but those for whom the punch
was intended were obliged to quench their
thirst with lager.

no fewer than sixteen children, between the
ages of four and eight years, all drunk I They
had obtained access to some of the vile liquor
of the dram-shops and drank enough to set

weakly trying to stab each other with such
weapons as they could reach.
Q-vs.»
To Young Ladies.
The pastor of a church in one of our large
cities said to me not long ago: “I have of-
ficiated at forty weddings since I came here,
and in every case, save one, I felt that the
bride was running an awful risk. Young
men nf bad habits and fast tendencies never
marry girls of their own sort, but- demaud a
wife above suspicion. So pure, sweet wo-
men, kept from the touch of evil through
the years of their girlhood, , give themselves
with all their costly dower of womanhood,
into the keeping of men who, in base associ-
ations,bavc learned to undervalue all that.
belongs to them. and then find no time for
repentance in the sad after years. There is
but one way Hill of this that I can see, and
that is for you—the young women of the
country—to require in association and mar-
riage.purity for purity, sobriety for sobriety,
and honor for honor. There is no reason
why the young men of this Christian land
should not be just as virtuous as its ~young
women, and if the loss of your society and
love be the price they are forced to pay for
vice, they will not pay it. I admit with
sadness that not all our young women are
capable of this high standard fcr themselves
or others, but I believe there are enough
earnest, thoughtful girls in the society of our
country to work wonders if faithfully arous-
ed. Dear girls, will you help us, in the
name of Christ? Will you, first of all, be
true to yourselves and God ; so pure in your
inner anti outer life that you shall haven
right to ask that the young men with who”:
you associate, and especially those you mar-
ry, shall be the same ? The awful gulf of
dishonor is close beside your feet, anti in it
fathers, brothers, lovers and sons are going
down. Will you not help us in our great
work ?—B(t:er.

The Tmnud.
Jews, Protestants, and Romanists all agree
in receiving as canonical the books of our
Old Testament. But as the Romanists would
add to these the apoeryphal books, so the
Jews insist on adding their oral law. They
say that when the written law was given to
Moses, inscribed on two tables of stone,
God also gave another and verbal law ex-
planatory of the first, which he was com-
manded not to commit to writing, but to de-
liver down by oral tradition. YVhen Moses
came down from the mount, they tell us that
be first repeated this oral law to Aaron and
his sons, and then to the seventy, and finally
to all the people. each of whom was obliged
to repeat it in his hearing, to insure its correct
remembrance. Just before his death, they
say, he spent a month and six days in repeat-
ing it to them again; and then, they assert,
he committed it in a special manner to'
Joshua, through whom it was imparted to
Phineas, and so on through the long line of
prophets, and afterward of teachers, down
to the time of Judah the Holy, who lived in
the second century, by whom it Was commit-
ted tO writing lost- it should be lost. This
work, consisting of six books, isthe famous
llishna of the Jews, which, with its Gemara.
or commentaries, constitutes their celebrated
‘l‘almud. in which is comprehended all thei:
learning and much of their religion as a peo-
ple. The whole work is held by them in far
higher esteem than the Bible, so much so,
that they say the Bible is water, but the Tal-
mud is wine; and they even declare that be
who studies the Bible when he might read
the Talmud does but waste his time; and
that to sin against the latter is far worse than
to sin against the former. So implicit is
their confidence in this oral law, that it is al-
most useless to reason with a Jew out 0 he
Old Testament; for_he is ever ready WI an
answer from the Talmud, with the authority
of which he is fully satisfied—Trj/on» Ed-
wards, in Scribner for February.
