HARTFORD, March 9.
SENATE—Petition from the borough of
Danbury for leave to rc—issue bonds. to take
up bonds coming due. Received by unani—
mous consent and referred to the finance
committee; rules suspended and trasnmitted
to the house. .
Bill relating to prison labor. The bill pro-
vides that whenever it shall be proposed to
employ fifty or more of the prisoners, con—
fined in the state prison by contract or other-
wise, at any rrade or occupation, the di
rectors of the state prison shall give pubhc
notice of-the fact by advertising the same in
one or more of the leading papers in each
city and. town in the state having over ten
thousand inhabitants, not less than once each
week for the period of four weeks. before
the making of any contracbor'selhng any
convict labor, and shall inquire into the ef—
fect [of such proposed cinploymsfluponihe
interest of the state, the moral physxcal
condition of the prisoner, and upon free la-
bor; and said directors shall give a hearing
to all who may wish to be heard in the mat-
ier, andif it shall appear upon such inquiry
that such proposed employment. Will not be
for the interest of the state, or Will be detri—
mental to the moral or physical .conditionof
the prisoner, or will seriously injure the em-
lens of this or any other statein such pro-
osed trade or occupation. it shall be prof
'bited. .
Senator Feet thought the bill amounted to
nothing as at present, and offered a few
amendments to make it something more than
a “deception and a fraud." He prpposed to
strike out the “fifty or more" and insert the
word “any," thus compelling the prison dVi-
rectors to advertise the fact whenever they
pro , d to contract outany of theprisoners
Under the bill as drawn. it would be possible
far contractors to evade it. by hiring the
men in separate gangs of fifty~fivcor forty—
line. He:also offered further amendments,
striking out the portions concermng ffthe
interests of the state" and “the .moral or
physical walfarp of the convicts." He ar-
gued against prison labor. It was not the
object ofpunisment and reformation; . '
wrong for Connecticut to interfere and com-
pets with the poor worklngman, and it is
wrong when they ask relief to he given such
a stone as this bill. . . _
Senator Brewster said the amendments
made to the bill made it worse than nothing,
as‘ it would enable the prison directors to
put up all the prisoners at once for con-.
tract. The other amendments of the sena~
tor from the 17th destroy the whole effec of
the bill. _' . ,
Without. concluding the discussion the
senate adjourned.

a thoroughfare of the same; passed.

es of trees growing within twelve feet of the

p Bill defining what stocks and bonds sav.
ings banks may invest in, was called‘upby
Mr Rowan of Norwalk, who moved tostrike
out all that gives the banks powerio invest
in the bonds of railroad companies whose
stock has paid six per cent. dividends for
four years successively. Mr. Rowan repeat-
ed what he said the other day that these
banks are for the poorer classes; but they
have been diverted and rich people are usmg
them; The law as it is he believed was well
enough. It is safe to stick to real estate.
Mr. Tinker of New- London, opposed the
amendment. We are told what the difficulty
is but do not have a remedy suggested. . The
banks have outgrown their opportunity to
take real estate loans‘; and the fact is that
the bulk of losses have been in this class of
loans. Further discussion of the bill post-
poncd.

E
The Orthodox View of God.
A few weeks since we noticed the fact that
the Rev. Dr. Thomas S. Childs, formerly
pastor of the First Congregational church in
this place, had" accepted an invitation to‘
preach a series of sermons in the Unitarian
church in Hartford. These sermons have
attracted much attention. The Hartford
Daily Times published the first sermon of the
series, from which we copy the closing por—
tion which has been greatly admired by some
of his farmer parishioners :—
“In now drawing this discussion to a close
for the evening, let me repeat that nothing
has been father from my thoughts than a
desire for mere controversy, or ambition for
personal victory. I do desire—and in this
you will all unite with me—a victory of the
truth, and that not so much for its o‘wn sake
as for that higher end in which we are all
so profoundly concerned, and to'which we
hope to come through the truth. "
Let us turn for a few moments to some of.
the practical uses of the doctrine. It has a
value :
1. Because it is important to know the
truth, and no truth is so important as that
concerning God. But what do we know of
God? Something, to be sure, but after all
how little! With uncovered head we bow
before that oldest of questions with which
we started, “Canslrthou by searching find
out God?” We know (it is said) that God
is our Father, and He is Love. Yes,
thank God, we do know that. In all the
good that circles us, and cnfolds us, had as
we are; in the brightness of the heavens
above us and the .gladness of the world
around us; in our personal joys ; in the price-
less sweetness of our homes; in those inani—
fold- relations that keep life from being a
failure and adcsolation. God is love, And
beyond all this is the overwhelming fact that
“God so loved the world that He gave His
only begotten Son that whosoever believeth
in Him should not perish, but have everlast-
in life. . ,
ut is this all? The heavens are bright
above us! Yes, but the storm sweeps them;
and clouds and darkness wrap them. .The
earth is glad around us! Yes, but listen, and
you hear the on—rushing of the hurricane and
the whirlwind; and cities reel above the
earthquake, and cities sink and arc'buried
under the fires of God. And yonder the mad
sea howls, and your fleets go down, and
there is sorrow on the sea, and sorrow on the
land; and across the waters, borne on every
breeze to—day, comes the cry of the famine-
stricken aud the pcrishing; and yet again
there come the groans and the curses of those
trampled and crushed in the wild stampede
'of war; and yonder 'are crowded ceme—
teries, and here are your weeping and broken-
hearted ones. _
Ah, it is not all song and joy in this beau—
tiful world; and- if the voice of the great
multitude that breaks from the skies is true,
and “the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth,”
there is something besides Love there. And
out of the storm, and the earthquakcmnd the
fire, and the famine, and the graves, and the
weepings of earth, we come back to the old
book of our childhood, and we find that men
have always had to deal with one .who as a
father pitics his children, pitles them that
fear Him, and when He whets His glittering
sword,and His hand takes hold on judgment,
renders vengeance to His enemies’ and re—
wards them that hate Him.
2. And so we come to another most fruit-
ful use of our doctrine. We want to under-
stand our own relations to God,and our pros-
pects with Him. How shall man be just with
God ? is still the heart of the crying and the
sighing of the race. We are out of harmony
with Him now. This is the testimony of the
universal conscience. Or to put it as we see
it, and feel it, we are away from our Father’s
house, wanderers, prodigals, more or less.
Restless, dissatisfied, disappointed, hungry
of soul and hungry of heart, while in our
Father’s house there is enough and to spare—-
How shall we get home? How shall we
come back to the Father’s house and the
Father’s arms? Is it enough to say, “I will
arise ?” That is part, but not all. We have
lost the way, and while we are straining out
into the night and into the darkness, bewil-
dered and heart-sore, and blinded with tears,
We hear a voice that comes through the dark-
uses with a pathos and a solemnity not of
earth: “No man cometh unto the .If'ather but
by me." And we know the voice of the Be -
loved Son im whom God is well pleased.
these words, when He had finished the work
which the Father had given Him to do. and
from the shadows of the Passover night He
was moving out into the darker shadows of
Gethsemane and Calvary, and on and up
through the sharpness of death, to open the
kingdom of heaven to allbelicvers. Once
more let him speak and we will listen: “I
am the way, and the truth, and the life ; no
man cometh unto the Father but by Me.”
And then we want not only to be led into
the presence of God; we want fitness for that
presence. Who of us would feel quite at
home,as we are, before the Holy One? How
shall webe pure? How shall we be ready
for the eternal companionship of the sinlcss
in the coming kingdom ? “Except a man be
born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot
enter into the kingdom." .
Surely, then, the doctrine of the Trinity is
not a dead abstraction. If my hope of see—
ing my Father’s face in peace and in purity
is bound up in my right relation to His Son
and to His Spirit, I need to know it, and
to adapt'myself in faith and life to the facts.
'In my conscious guilt I want to know just
where to go for pardon. In my sinfulness I
want to know where to go for purity. In
my weakness and suffering I want to know
where to go for strength and relief. Weary
and heavy-laden I want to know who can
say, “Come unto Me, and I will give you
rest." Hungry and thirsty for something
the world can never give me, I want. to know
who has the right to say, “He that cometh to
Me shall never hunger. and he that believeth
in Me shall never thirst.” And when I am
going through scenes where human consola~
tions all fail, and human voices are mockery,
there may be found—a comforter who will
abide with me forever. These things, and
such as these, my dear friends, God grant we
all may find; and they ever do find who
truly find Him." -

RvavTON, Coma, March 8, ’80.
Woman!
purest, noblest and most beautiful in God's
created universe, rise before us at the mere
mention of that one magical word. Man, it'
is recorded was made “a little lower than the
angels.” Many of these bright. glorious
creatures, women, standing infinitely above
him in the scale,must rank With the glittering
inhabitants of the upper spheres. He that
is not a semi-idolator, at least a half worship-
er of woman, is an anomaly in nature. hence
to pour forth tributes to their loveliness and
devotion should be to every true man like
the drawing of his breath—a thing unavoid—
able, cvery ready and free. And what must
be thought of that man, or rather the carica-
ture on a true man, who would wantonly de-
tract by look, word, or gesture one iota from
the fair name and fame of woman. Yet
there are such, and a person at all observant
can easily detect them in an assemblage, on
the street, but more particularly on railways
and steamboats. We refer to that class—to
use an inelegant word—who style themselves
“members." that is, persons who endeavor by
smiles, looks and smirks'to 'catch the eye of
a lady, and thus to obtain an acquaintance
with a view of entering into conversation
and making themselves generally agreeable
from motives that can be anything but hon-
orable. This vice—for vice it is—is most
noticeable on the part of commercial travel-
ers, or drummers as they are more common—
ly known, and time and again we have seen
ladies annoyed and hari'assed beyond meas-
ure by the brazenry of these pests of society.
As we write we have in our mind’s eye two
of these gentry who make their headquarters
at Mount Vernon, and also a prominent pro-
fessional man living at Stamford,who is quite
well known throughout the county, and the
latter is the most heartless of the three.
Coming from New York some time ago we
saw when the train arrived at Stamford this
“professions "inasmu- through each car of
the train, as is his custom, and at last: he sat
down on a seat directly in front of one thg
was occupied by a lady, and turning partly
around eyed - her out of'countenance with
a sort of fiendish satisfaction that bespoke
the blackgunrd rather than the gentleman.
The lady was distressed at this uncalled—for
attentiOn, and at last with.,cheeks burning
re‘d andlips curled with scorn, she changed
her seat, and he, after a moment’s delibera—
tion, got up leisurely and proceeded to a for.
ward car, probably to find some other lady
to insult in like manner. The case mentioned-
is but one of many, and every man who has
'azmother, wife or sister should feel a deep
interest in breaking up this detestable species
of blackguardism. One way would be to
publish the names of some of these society
lepers that roam at large, in which case we
would take cXtrcmp pleasure in furnishing
three names to head-the list. 0. R;

3611111110 MISCELLANY. ‘
A new application of the Ruhmkorlfrelem
tric coil has been made in the neighborhood
of Marseilles. Instead of using birdlimc on
the trees which are frequented by birds of
passage, a copper’ wire is wound around the
trunk of each tree and a decoy attached to a
neighboring staff. When the flock has been
attracted by the decoy, a shock is given by
the apparatus, and the birds are more surely
stunned than bya rifle. Similar experiments
have shown that the parasites of vines and
their eggs may be destroyed by the powerful
electric shocks.
Just before ther recent opening of tele-
graphic communication with Zanzibar, an
interruption in the working;' of the cable oc-
curred, the causc of which was found to be
a rupture arising from the action of a sub-
marine volcano about ten miles from the Zan-
zibar landing place. This is probably 'the
first instance of volcanic interference with
telegraph operations.
Dr. V. Sagielsky asserts that the Tartar
Steppes, Iceland, and the Shetland, Farce,
and Hebrides Islands, are almost entirely
exempt from consumption. These places
beinggw elevations; the fact tells somewhat
against the special or exclusive value of
mountain climate. Dr. Jagielskys's inclined
to the opinion that the immunity is largely
due to the universal use of koumiss and 'a
similar drink called “bland. " -A large num—
ber of medical men share the belief that if
anything will check the progress of lung
diseases it is koumiss, especially in a warm,
dry climate, like that of the Tartar steppcs
during the summer months. . .
It is expected that electric motors will
soon be adopted on the street-railways of‘
Berlin.
The most infusible of all known metals is
iridium, which, as has been just determined
by a French investigator, melts only when
the intense heat of 3,510 degl'ees Fahrenheit
is reached.
The petroleum lands of Peru extend along
the coast a distance of one hundred and
twenty miles—the tract embracing about 4,—
400,000 acres. 'Where the waters of the
Pacific have worn. away the rocks at places
along the shore, oil trickles out at low tide,
and for ninety miles this outcrop may be fol-
lowed along the surface of the ocean.
By means of his newly- invented thermo—
pile, for the measurement of‘infinitessmal
degrees of heat, Mr. Edison ‘asserts it to be
possible to measure the millionth part of a
degree Fahrenheit. Nor is this all, for the
new marvel will show infinitesimal change
in the moisture of the atmosphere—“changes
which are a hundred thousand time less in
quantity than those that can be indicated by
the present barometer."
“Spence’s metal” is a new metallic com—
pound which will probably prove.ofiiiuch
utility. Chemically considered, the“ new
substance is one of the class known as thiates
or sulphur sulphides, and specimens lately
exhibited in London consisted of an ore of
iron pyrites containing both lead and zinc
sulphides. It possesses the valuable proper-
ties of melting at a low heat, expanding in
cooling, great tenacity, and being practically
unaffected by acid water, or atmospheric
exposure. It has the very important advan-
tage of cheapness, and is said to be especially
adapted to a great variety of purposes. As
a substitute for type and bronze metals much
is expected of it.
Dr. Delamotte, an eminent savant who is
thoroughly conversant with the geology and
geography of Egypt, is of the opinion that
the ancient Nile had its origin in alake much
larger and higher than the Victoria Nyanza
and Lake Tananyika of to—day. From this
lake he thinks the water was distributed
through various river channels, rendering
fertile a great area of the country which is
now a dried-up desert. The wearing away
of the Nile’s cataracts gradually formed one
deep channel, into which all the water was
ultimately diverted. Evidences of the dried
up rivers are ‘now found in great beds.of
sand called by the Arabs of the desert Bah-r—
eLAbi‘ad, or “rivers without water. ” To
again distribute the water through these an-
cient channels and thus restore a great ex-
tent of territory to its ancient fertility, in-
creasing the arable land of . Egypt tenfold,
Dr.,Delamotte believes maybe accomplish-
ed by raising the Nilefs cataracts-in other
words, by creating a suitable system of
dams and locks. The Khedivc is said to be
greatly interested in this scheme of restora-
tion.
According to La'Nalure, a modification of
Edison's phonographic matrices an been in-
vented by substituting stcarine for the tin—
foil and electrotyping the impressed surface.
It has been suggested that these clectrotypes,
which can be made very cheaply, may reu-
der great service in the study of foreign
languages, for they preserve indefinitely and
repeat as often as desired words that are the
most difficult to pronounce correctly. A
veritable pronouncing dictionary might thus
be made—an undertaking of which the wild-
est fancy would not have dreamed a few
years ago. '

Celebrated Safes,
In purchasing a Safe, we wish to call your
attention to some of the important advantages
our Safes possess over all others, and which
make them the cheapest and best Safes now
made.
ist. Oui- “PATENT INSIDE BOLT Wonk”
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 Safes is between the locks
and bolts and the outside plag of the door,
in most cases we can unlock o r safes on the'
- combination after they have passed through a
severe fire, which saves breaking them open.
2d. Our “PATENT HINGED CAP" consists
of the back plate of the door being hung on
hinges, and fastened by a thumb-screw,which
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—W'HEEL 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, pres
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,those 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 heat, we believed that we could ifn-
prove them, and 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 foi'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 pain finely
outside, but are worthless to press 9 their
contents from fire. We make but one class
of Safes, which is the best we know how to
produce. Send for descriptive catalogue.

“I HEAR THEE CALLING"
BY N. S. TOMB.
I hear thee through the stilly air,
Calling, calling, calling;
I hear thee when the night is fair,
When cloudless floats the radiant moon
And pipes the frog in his lagoon
I hear thee, Thomas. There’s a slow
And plaintive pathos in thy tone
That comes to me, a poet, lone
And thoughtful, and the flow '
Of rhymes is stopped, the while I list
To thy “Maria" quavered low
From some near housetop. Ah, from thee,
Pcrchancc, was sweet “Maria” torn,
And likewise, haply, in the spree
An eye, abunch of hair, wei’h missed.
“Maria” will not come. Thy cry
Is heard by me, and I can catch
Thy outlines on the neighboring thatch—
Thy back bent upwards to the sky
With heaviness of inward woe,
Thy slitted cars, thy hair awry,
The tail that moveth to and fro,
Thy furrowed brow—however, that
Was furrowed by some‘ rival cat.
I see thee, hear thee, but “Mari”
Will see thee, hear thee nevcrmorc,
For I—to say sooth, Thomas, I
Don’t think she’ll ever come to shore.
I hear thy accents rend the air,
I hear thee calling;
I hear thee when the night is fair,
When cloudless floats the radiant moon
And pipes the frog in his lagoon
I hear thy caterwauling. ——Trz'bu7w.

A .Washington man has invented a machine
for reproducing scenes by eletricity. When
the apparatus is perfected it will play sad
havoc with the whole social fabric. A wife
can sit at home, turn the crank of a machine
and have the picture of her husband, having
a nice little time with his friends, thrown
upon the wall. It will be useless to attempt
to practice any little deceptions then or to
make the old excuse about going to see a sick
friend, or having to stay late at the oflice.
The dear little woman can telephone to the
central office to look around for her dear
husband,and when the central office gets him
into a focus, that man might as well make
up his mind that he cannot purchase peace
'with a paltry box of fried oysters or a
package of caromels. The married men had
better make a p001, buy the patent and sup-
press the infernal machine. '
Royal Gems.
The pearl is the only gem that is reckoned
worthy of companionship with the diamond,
sapphirc, ruby and emerald. The opal and
catseye, costly and beautiful as they are, are
but a duke and marquis to the royalty of
those others. As for amethyst and onyx,
jasper and chrysolite, torquoise and topaz,
hyacinth and agate and seinite—all these and
their like have come to be of scant account.
As a diamond, the famous “Braganza” gem
brand—new from Brazil as it is, is worth
£52,350,000; whit-c topaz,which it is shrewd-
ly thought to be, it is of no interest at all.
It weighs 1,690 carats, and is as large as an
egg ; but what is ' in comparison with the
blue Hope diamo , which only weighs 44;
carats, is absolutely unique, and has a
legend of its own, like any knight errant?
The peridot. once more valuable than the
imperial diamond, is now a mere sectarian
jewel, affected by the members of the So -
ciety of Friends. As the diamond is super-
ior to all the fashions of the world, and still
retains its place at the head of the mineral
kingdom, it is not unpleasant to find that
diamond—cutting invented :for Europe by
Louis de Berqucm, and perfected by the
great Venetian, Vincent I’eruzzi, who in—
vented thc brilliant—was better done in
London once upon a time than anywhere:
and that, though there are $900 Jews at.
work in Amsterdam—cutting, polishing and
setting— the craftsmanship of the old Lon-
don lapidarics has never been surpassed.—
Pall Mall Gazette.
Mr. De Haas, ex—consul at Jerusalem, has
set at rest a multitude of recent contradicto-
ry statements about the Holy Land in the fol.-
lowing series of pointed denials: “There is
not a railroad in all Palestine. There is not
an American missionary in the Holy Land,
nor a Sunday school. But one Protestant
church in Jerusalem,another outside of the
walls and one at Nazareth. The Jewish pop—
ulation has increased during the past few
years, but the population of the country has
more rapidly decreased. The J we have no
intention of rcoccupyiug the lan . They go
there to die, not to live. No Jew around
Jerusalem owns or cultivates an acre of
ground. The Jew. of Europe and America
will never return to Palestine unless forced
back at the point of the bayonet.”
Why she missed the Ferry Boat.
She was to meet her adored one on the
nine o'clock Oakland boat, and it wanted
fifteen minutes of the hour. Her hand was
on the door to go out when it struck her that
she had forgotten to has her left eyebrow.
Rushing to the glass to rectify this, she dis;
covered a small red spot, commemorative of
a departed pimple. A dab of lily white sct- -
tled that defect, and she was about to make
a fresh start when a backward glance as—
sured her that her new hat was not as be—
coming as it should be. So she stopped just
long enough to give it a punch over one
car and a “hyke” in the back. Then her
“Recsmicr locks” wanted a little ar—
ranging, and an inch of blonds must
be pinned across "her nose. Then she
parted her lips to see if her filled tooth
showed very plainly, and that started a most -
seductive dimple in one check which sug-
gested a scrap of black court~plaster on its
very verge to call attention to its dangers
like a sign-board on a thinly frozen pond.
Then she tipped the glass and stuck in the
curling tongs to hold it, and walked across
the room with her head over her shoulder to
get a back view, gave her drapery a twitch
here and put there, tried to see how long a
step she could take without bursting the
tapes, gave herself a little shake like a spar—
row afterfi shower, changed her four-button
gloves for six, sprinkled Lnbin's latest on.
her handkerchief, stamped her little French
heels once or twice to settle herself, and,
seizing her parasol in the most approved
style to show the lace to advantage, started
for the ferry, where a smiling official, either
in a fit of admiration or sarcasm, offered her
his glass with which to watch the fast re-
ceding boat, already half across the bay.—
