The Daisy.
Not worlds on worlds in phalanx deep
Need we to prove that God is here;
The daisy, fresh from Winter's sleep
Tells of His hand in lines as clear.
For who but He who arched the skies,
And pours the dayspring’s living flood—
Wondrous alike in all He tries, ,
Could rear the daisy’s purple bud?
Mold its green cup, its wiry stem,
Its fringed border nicely spin,
And cut the gold embossed gem
That set in silver, gleams within?
And fling it, unrestrained and free,
(for hill, and dale, and desm-t sod,
Tithl man, where‘er he walks, may see
i. may step the stamp of God?

AMONG '1'111-1Glth11-2N MOUNTAINS.
At this present writing we are stopping at
8.1 will stone farm house in Vermont,close up
by 1.: e side of Mansfield mountain.
The house is: nearly one. hundred years old
and has bare floors; as the mountain winds county hotel should not be made quite so heralds the diabolical deed, the press curses
drive the rain in through the walls, carpets
would only be a' nuisance and source of
anxiety.
Up in the broad garrct we go and watch
the grandma spin. There are piles of wool
“rolls" on the floor beside her, and under the
eaves are stored away dozens and dozens of
sap buckets; away in one corner lie bushels
of brown butternuts; hanging on a peg in a
rafter is a bag of beechnuts; buffalo robes
and a great fur coat hang against the wall,
on the other side of which are two'little
chambers.
One of these belongs to grandma, and she
takes us into her sanctum and shows us her
wondrous patchwork quilts and homespun
linenfi ,Thc other little room belongs to the
“hired man,” who, in this case, is a hand-
some young Vermonter and son of a well-to-
do farmer. We'call him “Sankey”—we will
not give his real name here.
In thcylairy house, close by, are large
tanks of milk, surroundcd by lead pipes
through which runs cool spring water.
There is a. stove in the room, and every con-
venience for regulating the temrcrature.
Here they make from fifty to sixty-five
pounds of butter at each churning, and
churn mostly by horse power. Close by, in
the fields, are the plump, old-fashioned red
cows, and on the hillside are the sheep; some
forty or more turkeys strut about in antici—
pation Of— the coming “Thanksgiving," and
in yonder pen, the pigs,pink and plump from
plenty of- milk and corn, grunt peacefully.
Nearly every farm here has its maple.
woods,'or, as the natives call it, their “sugar
bush." From thisjfarm they- sell about a
thousand pounds yearly,and on some of them
they turn Off four or five thousand pounds.
Chickens and cream, pumpkin pies,:milk
and sweet cider is the common fare, while I
stay here.
Yesterday, the sole. son of the house, a
stripling named Charlie, came in with his
tongue bitten clear through in the middle;
he had been struggling with a refractory calf
that let up its hind legs and hit him sharply
under his chin. He does not talk much now.
The broom was missing the other morning
and inquiry brought out the fact that it was
“broke on the crook—horned ox as in: Was
nosing in the dooryard near the dye tub, and
was just getting the yarn hooked into his
horns.” ’
The old house was shingled, last Spring,
with material sawed and split and shaved by
“Snnkey,” Charlie and his father.
I have been into the big barn towatch the
men husk corn. The grain is not ripe and is
only good for fodder, the season being too
short for it here, sometimes. _ ’
Have had delightful rides through the deep
valleys, over the hills and through the dark
spruce woods. One morning we rode some
twenty miles, all wrapped up in shawls and
fur robes, through the frosty air and over
frozen ground, through the. most delightful
ccuutry. before the sun was high enough to
melt; the thick white frost that covered
everything. _
Old Mansfield mountain so near to us looks
lovely with its deep, dark shadows and its
top hid in the clouds. 1 look at it on rising
in the morning and take a parting look at
' night, and think of the story of Rip Van
\Vinkle, and wonder if any of those little
men live upin the hollows of this mountain.
One might imagine it peopled by fairies and
gnomes, it looks so wild and dreamlike half—
sbouded in the clouds.
The other night we had a moonlight ride
among the mountains and valleys, with old
Mansfield always in sight of us. We have
teased hard to be taken up the mountain,but
they laugh at us and tell U that the “half—
way house” is closed, and the saddlehorses
that take people up tliesummit have been
brought down, and thatgwe wouldn’t ' like to
be up there now, it is so cold and the wind
is so strong up there, and we have to believe
it and givcit up, for we have seen the snow
up therefor several mornings past.
. 0in people have found this place and in
the season some of the farm houses are filled
to oveifiowing, while there are boarding-
houses in the little villages that have their,
quota. Board. in summer here, ranges from
two dollars and a half up to six, and beyond
that, if one wishes for “style ;" but for three
dollars and a. half one can have a very nice
table and all the milk they desire. You will
be quite sure Of a feather bed, anywhere, but
possibly one could convince the proprietor
that a mattrass really was more desirable.
That is more than ‘we have succeeded in do -
ing. You should see the look of holy horror
on the faces of the feminine members of so-
ciety here as they tell of “the capers them
city folks out up.”
“Why, they will go out, marrie women
and all, right in the road and stop a strange
man (here they hold their breath and stick
out their eyes) and ask to ride in his ox cart,
and they will jump in anyhow, some of them
with their legs dangling‘ of! behind, and
ride right off with him, and he a man they
had never seen afore; and that ain’t all
nuther. They get on straddle one: horse,
without a blanket or saddle, and ride off on
the roads just like a man. For my part1
think women folk belong to hum a minden
of than work. The brazen critters.”
Mind you, its the women who tell this,
while their partners only tip back their chairs
and “haw, haw.”
I rode a number of miles a few days ago
with a nice old uncle, who talked to me of
the “bemlic” and the “far" trees, as we rode
among them, and told me he could remember
when it was not safe for aman to travel that
road, because of the bears and panthers.
I nearly forgot to relate some Of the capers
told of the “city folks.” They “have a way
of going around hunting Curious stones, and
go aboutwith nets catching butterflies,which
they kill, and when they go home they take
all that trumpery with them, even carrying
home cakes of beeswax, chunks of,spruce
gum and maple sugar, and baskets full of
them ere stones they git up in that nasty clay
pit.”
Now these city folks come from the staid
and classic region of Boston, and we ponder
on tiIc subject, wondering what a rollicking
New Yorker would do up here.
Perhaps those “wimmin” learned the grace-
ful art of riding straddle, of the natives; at
any rate I have here seen a daughter of a
native scampering through a little village
straddled over agay blanket with a lively
horse under it, and she looked quite pretty,
too; more than that, no one seemed to notice
it,an‘d from that I judged that the “city felk”
did not bring that fashion with them, but
caught it here.
As I close this the snow has come upon as,
fast whitening the ground. Winter will be
here long before it comes to you in sunny
Norwalk. '1‘
I. O. 0. F.
The annual meeting of the Grand Encamp-
ment, I. 0. 0. F., was held in New Haven,
last Tuesday. The report; of Grand Scribe
Botsford was presented,showing the addition
of one subordinate Encampment during the
year; making a total of 21 ; total membership
July 1, 1879, 1,775, showing an apparent loss
of 23 members for the year. This, how-
ever, is more than made up when we add the
membership of Orrin No. 4, of New London,
not included in the above statement because
n ' port was due. Receipts were $531.45.
T receipts of subordinates were $6,768.62;
general fund, $14,957.16; number of pain-
archs relieved, 136; amount paid for relief,
$1,980. There is an increase in the general
fund and an improvement over past years.
During the year Excelsior No. 18 met With a
severe loss in the destruction of their Encamp-
ment hall, books and paraphernalia. Reports
and business occupied the entire morning ses-
sion. At the afternoon session officers were
elected as follows: Joel L Hungerford, New
Haven, Grand Patriarch; James Craig, Mid-
dletown, Grand High Priest ; Thomas R.
'l‘aylnr, Waterbury, Grand Senior Warden;
Fretl‘k Botsford, New HaVen, Grand Scribe;
James E. Bidwell, Mitldletown, Grand Tress
urer; Oliver Woodhouse, Hartford, Grand
Junior Warden; Charles B. Foster, New [in
van, Grand Reprrsemativc. The next ses-
sion will be held at Waterbury. Frank Leon-
ard, VVIII. ll. Saunders, C. F. Marvin, S. G.

Low-crowned Derby bats rolled closely at
the side are now worn by ladies as well as by
very young girls. They are very natty and
pretty—the hats as well as the ladies, we
mean—and better than all the fashion makes

James Gordon Bennett's income from the
Herald is said to be $1,500 yer day. But for
the benefit of those about embarking in the
newspaper business we would say that they
must not expect to make more than $1,000 a.
day for the first year—at least not aboutNor-
walk.
About the neatcst, tastiest and most inter;
esting magazine published'for the very young

illustrations and is attractively printed in
large type on clean white paper, by John' L.
Shorey of Boston. Now is the time to renew
or make subscriptions for it, try it for your
little ones a year.
The figures compiled by Dan, Barlow &.
CO. for the third quarter of 1879 show some
encouraging and surprising results. For the
time mentioned the business failures in the
United States have been less than one-half of
the number during the third quarter of 1878,
the number of falling from 2,853 to 1,262— a
difference of 1,591. In the total amount of
liabilities the reduction is even greater, being
only one—quarter of the total amount for the
same period last year. While the number of
failures during the third quarter of 1878 was
unusual, owing to the fact that the law re-
pealing the Bankrupt Act went into opera-
tion September 1, the improvement is very
great nevertheless—Tribune.

The temperature for two weeks past,mak—
ing, October seem like June, is unprecedent-
ed. The records of the Weather Bureau date
back only to 1871, but they show nothing
like it. The warm weather has been accom-
panied also by a remarkable drought.
There has been no rain in this region since
Sept. 14, with the exception of one little
shower that did not amount to anything.
The total rainfall for September was only
one inch and seventy-five hundredths. In
1877, in September, there was even less rain,
but it was‘made up in October, when there
was a fall of 7.69 inches. -
Dr. N yc’s Ecclesiastical Position.
A. few weeks ago, during the vacation
of the Rev. Dr. Nye, of Brooklyn, a
paragraph from the New Ygrk correspond—
ence Of the Christian Leader, intimated that
the doctor was more disposed to affiliate with
the Unitarians than with his own denomina—
tion (Universalism), and that he would prob-
ably drop out of the , ministry of the latter.
Dr. Nye has now returned to his flock and
writes to correct this false impression, which
he says was a mere bit of pleasanlry written
by a clerical neighbor of his in Brooklyn,
and was based on the fact tba supplied
the pulpit of the Rev. Dr. Put m ‘(Unita—
rian) ’on the heights, ‘Brooklyn, for a
month. and bad meantime absented himself
from the weekly meetings of his clerical
brethren. But as the public did not quite
see the point the Doctor has been plied with
questions and letters tregarding his ecclesi~
astical positions, which be now defines as
follows:—“I hold myself in readiness to
preach_ for any church ready to hear the
word I preach. Dr Putnam is Unitarian
Universalist, and preaches in plain and elo-
quent terms the doctrine of the final restora—'
tion. I am a Universalist Unitarian, believ-
ing in the unity and fatherhood of God, in
the divine mission and authority of Jesus
(in whom it pleased the Father that all
fulncss should dwell), and in the spiritual
subjugation Of all souls to God. While loyal
to this faith and to the only church, as
a church which preaches the limitness
love of God and the final perfection and
blessedness of all souls, I am. ready to preach
for andlabor with all who build upon Christ,
however diverse their interpretations of the,
Christian faith."

lectively it does not pay to do wrong. We
cannot fight well or long against tbeOmnip-
otent, and to do evil we must surely suffer
here and hereafter. Asa nation dealing with
the Indian, our past acts are all blackened
with the wrongs done the Pale Faces. When
will the truévhistorian write fairly this his-
tory of terrible deeds ? ' .
The Indian must die out. He is the wild,
untamed child of nature and cannot contend
with the might of civilization and the light
of education. The past is blackened, the
present ominous. There is yet barely time
to write one beautiful page in this evil book.
Let us for once do justly, act lovingly, keep
some pledges with the Indians. The fool-
bardy Meeker would not heed, had not the
sagacity or pluck to fight, and the gallant,
rash Thornburgb died as so many before him
have done. And now the nation cries out,
the press heralds the. atrocity and the great
Sherman demands new armies with the black
cry. “Kill all the Indians.” We cannot blot
on a wrong; no pomp or might or blazonry
w cover up vile acts. The air, the earth,
Heaven and Hell cry out, continually against
the wicked. The friends of the spirit and
ten thousand torments pursue all evil doers
and nations must flourish or die out with in-
dividuals sinning against this law of God.
We cannot carry on to the end this infamy
against the Indian and prosper in the work.
They are God’s children,born with his spirit,
possessiong so many noble qualities, and if
we persecute and kill them it is written as
bare cruelty, murder.
Why then do not the people and the press
compel the government to commence Fright
actions at this late day? The voice of the
people is mighty and no power dares to pro-
voke the popular will. The pulpit, to-day,
so silent when true prayer and work are,
needed to attack giant evils’and help the suf-
fering cause, will in time preach and pray
to help the poor, persecuted Red Faceicbil-
dyen of the forest.
ABOUT DniNKING.—What to drink in these
days is a paramount question. Many good
people who are in no sense of the word Bohe-
mians find delectation of the thirst cure in
iced Budweis, the foolish attempt brandy
and the froward go mud on whisky. The
wise man will temper his iced black tea with
lemon, or mix one-third of the cheering
Chinese herb, .duly decocted, with Sauterne
or claret. ‘ These are July cups not likely
to inebriate * * * As a rule- the Amer-
ican, being thirsty, treats his throat and his
inner man as he would a casual house on
fire. He drcnches it with any liquid within
reach, asking no questions for cholera’s sake
or the 'cramp’s. There are tales of him
caught soothing his parched tesophagus
with chloroform linimengdraugbts of Cro-
ton water just above the freezing :point, or
the street lemonades or soda dispensed under
the patronage of the aldermen. Still there is
some sense left in the land, as appears from
the sage and economical devise of a laborer
about the new Morse building recently. who
Was bathing his wrists in cool running water.
That man may not live to be president—in
fact he looked a very honest fellow. But he
will not probably die of sunstroke, nor yet
throw his children out of the window.-—-N.

A MATTER OF TOOTIIPioxs.——Among the
reforms in connection with hotels which
have been suggested by us from time to time
is that of the abolishment of toothpricksr—
Of all the objectionable features identified
f the toothpicks to be the worst, and we
have advocated repeatedly the discontinuance
of their distribution. ' We cannot believe
that there exists any necessity for their use
in hotels, or, for that matter, anywhere else.
The habit—happily not national—of prod—
ding gums and teeth with a wooden stick
or small bit of quill, is at once disgusting and
offensive to all refined people,more especially
in, laces wherewe eat.
‘ t is an evidence of wretched breeding in
the first place, and of the fact that dental
assistance is required in the second. Why
aquestion to be‘vanswered. If the tooth-
picka were not conspicuously displayed on
tables and on the ofiice counter in hotels,
people would be spared the opportunity of
exhibiting bad manners,and there is no more
need of furnishing them than there is to
present patrons with nail cleaners, tooth
ticle of toilet use. A very sad commentary '
on the proverbial good manners of American
is to see so-called ladies and gentlemen walk-
ing out of a hotel dining-room, either ener- '
getically masticating a toothpick, or using
it violently to stab their gumsl Equally In-
consistent with our reputation is it to wit:—
ness the seizure of the toothpicks by nearly
all who make inquiries at the office of hotels
and one is easily led to believe that atootb-
pick in the mouth is essential to the begin-
ning of any kind of a conversation.
Toothpicks are an abomination,and should
be abolished now and for all time. Let hotel
proprietors either charge for them at the rate
of one dollar for each toothpick, or else
constitute themselves together as an asso—
ciation for the improvement ,of American
‘manners, and discontinue their use altogeth—
r. ‘ .
There are some among us who, in their ig-
norance as to, what it is proper to do when
away from home,follow the example of those
around them. These unsophisticated mortals
constitute a large proportion of the toothpick .
chewers, and they should no longer be led '
into temptation.
We will record with pleasure-the name. of

Celebrated safes,
In purchasing a Safe, we wish to call your
attention to some of the important advantages
our Safes possess over all sthers, and which"
make them the cheapest and best Safes now
made.
131:. Our “PATENT INSIDE BOLT WORK"
consists in placing the bolts and locks on the
inside of the door (as shown in the cut above)
where they are at all times accessible, and
can be cleaned and. kept in order, and thus
prevent them from unexpectedly locking you
out. In all other Safes the bolts are placed
next the outside plate of iron, being covered
completely by the filling, consequently im.
possible to oil or clean them without digging
out the filling, which is expensive, besides
losing the use of the Safe several days. As
the filling in our Saks is between the locks
and bolts and the outside plate of the door,
in most cases we can unlock our safes on the
combination after they have passed through a
severe fire, which saves breaking them open.
2d. Our “PATENT HINoED CAP” consists
'of the back plate of the door being hung on
hinges, and fastened by a. thumb-screw,whicb
enables one to have access to the locks and
bolts by simply removing the thumb-screw.
3d. While other safe-makers use three
wheel locks on their fire-proof safes (reserv-
ing the best four-wheel locks for bank safes),
we put on our FOUR-WHEEL LOCKS on all
safes, from the smallest to the largest, and for
simplicity and durability cannot be excelled.
4th. All our Safes are IRON-LINED INSIDE,
instead of wood-lined as in other safes, which
enables us to use the the greatest amount of
water in our filling without danger of the
Safe’s being damp. All corners of. the Safes
are secured with angle iron, which. together
with the very hard nature of our filling, pro -
vents them from injury from falling, or fall—
ing walls or timbers. Our Safes have THREE
FLANGES instead of single or double as in
others, and are made with and without inside
doors. In the great Boston fire our Safes had
the champion record, as was fully proved at
the time, to these important improvements
do we owe our success and the great popular-
ity our safes have attained throughout the
country. After that great fire we published
a complete list of our Safes exposed,thcse that
failed to preserve their contents, besides those
that were successful, and for months chal-
lenged our competitors to follow our example
which they would not do, as they knew that
by so doing they would only assist us in dem-
onstrating to the world the superiority of our
Safes, and our claim to the champion record.
Although that Great Fire so conclusively
proved the superiority Of our Safes to resist
intense best, we believed that we could im-
prove them, nnd we have, therefore, since
that time, increased the thickness of the walls,
added to the number of flanges, and strength-
ened them in various ways, until we now
manufacture a. Safe better than ever before,
and unequalled for its excellence. It—has been
our constant aim to make the BEST SAFE that
can be produced, believing that, especially in
purchasing a. safe to keep that which may
have cost a. lifetime to accumulate, the best is
decidedly the cheapest. In these dull times
it is the custom of many safe—makers to man-
ufacture several grades of cheap safes, and
recommend that which can be sold the cheap-
est, without regard to quality, and many
safes are now in use that are .painted finely
outside, but are worthless to preserve their
contents from fire. We make but one class
of Safes, which is the best we know how to
produce. Send for descriptive catalogue.

Mark Twain’s Estimate of Gener-
al Hawley.
At a large and enthusiastic meeting held
in Elmira, on Friday, Gen. Hawley was in»
troduced by Mark Twain, (Samuel L.
Clemens,) who said: “I see I am advcr. '
tised to introduce the speaker of the even—
ing. Gen. Hawley, of Connecticut, and I
see it is the report that I am to make a
political speech. Now, I must say this is
an error. Iwasn‘t constsncted to make
stump 398001195. and on that head,(poiitics)
I have only this to say: First, see that
you vote. Second, see. that your neighbor
votes. Lastly, see thatyourself or neigh-
bor don’t scratch the ticket. Gen. Hawley
was president of the Centennial Commis-
sion. He was a. gallant soldier in the war.
He has been Governor of Connecticut,
member of Congress, and was president of
the convention that nominated Abraham
Lincoln.”
Gen. Hawley—That nominated Grant.
Twain—He says it was Grant, but I
know etter. He is a member of my
church at Hartford, and the author of
“Beautiful Snow.” May be be will deny
that. But I am only here to give hima
character from his last place. As apnre
citizen, I respect him; as the personal
friend of years, I have the warmest regard
for him; as a neighbor whose vegetable
garden adjoins mine, why, why, I watch
him. That’s nothing; we all do that with
any neighbor. Gen. Hawley keeps his
promises not only in private but in public.
He is an editor. who believes what he writes
in his own paper. As the author of “Beau—
tiful SnoW” be has added a new pang to
Winter. He is broad shouldered, generous,
noble, liberal, alive to his moral and reli-
gions responsibilities. Whenever the con-
tribution box was passed I never knew
him to take out a cent. He is a square,
true, honest man in politics, and I must say
he occupies a mighty lonesome position.
He has never shirked a duty or backed
down from any position taken in public
life. He has been right every time and
stood there. As Governor, as Congressman,
as a soldier, as the head of the Centennial
Commission, which increased our trade in
every port and pushed American produc-
tions into all the known world, he has con-
ferred honor and credit upon the United
States. He is an American of Americans.
Would we had more such men! SO broad,
so bountiful ishls character, that he never
turned a tramp empty handed from his
door, but always gave him a letter of intro-
duction to me. His public trusts have
been many, and never in the slightest did
he prove unfaithful. Pure, bonest.incoro
ruptible, that is Joe Hawley. Such a man
in politics is like a bottle of perfumery in a
glue factory—it may modify the stench if it
doesn’t destroy it. And now, in speaking
highly of the speaker of the "evening. I
havn’t said any more of him than I would
of myself. Ladies and gentlemen, this is
Gen. Hawley."
