’nght and Wrong.
Listen'l. listen, how the birds are Singing,
Little chidren dear!
' “ii'kThrough the morning air their joy is ringing;
See the blue bird to the elm—twig clinging!
All his sweetest songs abroad he’s flinging.
Beautiful and clear.
Lr'lok! ob, look, how fast the flowers are
growing,
Every c‘.: lid to please!
Violets soon their blue eyes will be showing,
Dandelions’ golden stars be glowing,
Clouds of fragrant, rosy blossoms snowing
From the apple trees.
What can mar this happiness of ours?
Little children, say!
What can steal the color from the flowers,
Dull their scent and chill the summer showers,
Spoil the bird‘s note, rob the golden hours,
Dim the radiant day ?
Right and wrong are in the. world before us!
Wrong alone can harm.
Wrong can darken all the bright sky o’er us;
Break with diseords harsh the birds’ sweet
chorus; ‘
Right alone to perfect joy before us,
Sheltered in God’s arm.

Taking the Census. .
In view of the fact that the work of tak—
ing the census is now progressing,the follow-
ing will be of interest to the readers of the
GAZETTE:
DUTIES or ENUMEBATORS.
It is by law made the duty of each cnumc~
rater to visit personally each dwelling in his
sub—division, and each family therein, and
each individual living out of a family in any
place of abode, and by inquiry made of the
head of such family or of the member there-
of deemed most creditable and worthy of
trust, or of such individual living out of a
family, to obtain each and every item of in—
formation and all the particulars required by
the act of March 3, 1870, as amended by act
of‘Apri120, 1880.
By individuals living out of families is
meant all persons occupying lofts in public
buildings, above stores, warcllouses,factorics,
and stables, having no other usual place of
abode ; person living solitary in cabins, huts,
’ or tents; persons sleeping on river boats,
canal boats, barges, cte., having no other
usual place of abode, and persons in police
stations having no homes. 0f the classes just
mentioned, the most important, numerically,
is‘the first, viz.; those persons, chiefly in
cities,who occupy rooms in public buildings,
or above stores, warehouses, factories, and
stables. In order to reach such persons, the
enumerator will need not‘only to'keep his eyes
eyes open to all indications of such casual res-
idence in his enumeration district, but to
make inquiry both‘of the parties occupying
the business, portidn ' of such buildings and
also of the police. . ' ' .
It is further piovided by law that in case no
person shall be found at the usual place‘of
abode of such family, or individual living
out of a family, competent to answer the in—
quiries made in compliance with the require—
ments of the act, .then it shall be lawful for
the enumerator to obtainlhc required inform-
ation as nearly as may be practicable, from
the family or families, or person or persons,
living nearest to such place of abode.
It is the prime object of the enumeration
to obtain the name, and the requisite particu-
lars as to the personal description of every
person in the United States, of whatever age,
sex, color", face, or condition, with this single
exception, viz,: that “Indians not taxed”
shall be omitted from the enumeration.
counrnsr 0N ,rnE‘rAnr or ENUMERATORS.
It is the duty of the cnumerator, in the ex-
ercise of his authority, to visit houses and
interrogate members of families resident
therein as provided by law, to use great cour-
tesy and consideration. ‘
THE OBLIGATION TO GIVE INFORMATION.
It is not within the choice of any inhabit—
ant of the United States whether he shall or
shall not communicate the information re—
quired by the Census law. By the four-
teenth section of the act approved March 3.
1879, it is provided: -
That each and every person more than
twenty years of age, belonging to any family
residing in any enumeration district, and in
case of the absence of the heads and other _
members of any.‘sueh family, then any agent
of such family, shall be, and each of them
hereby is, required, if thereto requested by
the Superintendent, Superv' or, or Enumera-
tor, to render a true acco t, to the best of
his or her knowledge, of every person bc~
longing to such family in the various particu-
lars required by law, and whoever shall will-
fully fail or refuse shall be guilty of a mis-
demeanor, and upon conviction thereof
shall be fined a sum not exceeding one huh.
dred dollars. .
The cnumcrator is not required to accept
answers which he knows, or has reason to
believe, are false. lie has a right to a lrllc
statement on every matter respecting which
he is bound to inquire; and he is not conclu—
dcd by a false statement. Should any person
persist in making statements which are obvi-
ously erroneous. the enumerator should enter
upon the schedule the facts as nearly as he
can ascertain them by his own observation or
by inquiry of credible persons.
The foregoing remark is of special impor~
tance with reference to the statements of the
heads of families respecting afIlicted members
of their households. The law requires a re—
turn in the case of each blind, deaf and
dumb, insane or idiotic, or crippled person.
It not infrequently happens that fathers and
mothers, especially the latter, are disposed to
conceal, or even to deny, the existence of
such infirmities on the part of children. In
such cases, if the fact is personally known to
the enumerator, or shall be ascertained by
inquiry from neighbors, it should be entered
on the schedules equally as if obtained from
the head of the family.
Asecond class of casesundcr this head
concerns the reporting of the values produced
in Agricultural or other occupations. The
enumerator is not bound by' any statement
which he knows or has reason to believe to
be false. His duty is to report the actual
facts as nearly as he can ascertain them.
The enumerator is prohibited by law from
delegating to any other person his authority
to enter dwellings and to interrogate their
inhabitants. The work of enumeration must
be done by the enumerator in person and
cannot be performed by proxy.
“Evergr’eens and Blinds.”
The Chicago Inter-Ocean notes as a fact
that “a man enters a barber-shop, 'divcsts
himself of coat, hat, and collar, lolls into an
ungraceful attitude, but is unhappy unless
the whole front of the house is open to the
public gaze while he is being lathcred and
sheared,” and then adds: “Upon the very
next block he drops in to imbibe a little
cider through a straw, or Warm his stomach
with ‘sour masll’ or ‘olc crow,’ and he
glances uneasily around to see if the door is
hedged by evergreens and the windows all
closed by blinds.” These “evergreens” and
“blinds," misehievious as they doubtless are,
are a very significant confession that it has
become vulgar and offensive to drink intox-
icating liquors openly and freelyin full view
of the public.
Extravaganee in dress is very marked in
New York this season. It exceeds the flush
days of the war. “I’ve been dressmaking for
twenty years, but never did I put scissors into
so much rich material or lay eyes on such
magnificent trimmings,” said a fashionable
mediate a few days ago,and others in the same
business report a like experience. In fact,
such goods were never before imported.
Some of the passementerie trimmings of cash-
mere and rainbow heads range in prices as
high as $35 and $40 ‘a yard, with fringes to
match iii richness.
SCIENTIFIC MISCELLINY. ’
_M. Siulmonar has produced a peculiar ef-
fect in ortraits. A negative of the sitter is
taken With his eyes wide open, and another
with his eyes shut. One of these is printed
- on each side of the paper in such a way that
the front and back images exactly coincide.
When the two sides are then alternately i1-
luminated by a lamp a portrait is presented
with the eyes opening, and shutting, and if
the light is moved rapidly the singular spec-
tacle of a winking photograph is shown.
A Gramme machine is being built for a
French establishment which by the electric
current, will transmit over wires to a consid-
erable distance a normal power equivalent to
that of ten horses, with a large increase of
power under special conditions.
The probable fact that certain liquids may
be dissolved in gases is one of the late rc-
niarkable discoveries in chemical volumes.
Ou compressing a mixture of five volumes of
carbon dioxide and one volume of air lique-
fies; but that as the pressure is increased to
one hundred and fifty or two hundred at—
mosphercsrthe liquid is gradually lessened uu
til it finally disappears altogether, being dis-
solved by the gas.
An interesting novelty is embodied in a
new safety lamp proposed by a Freiberg
mining student. The action of the lamp is
based on the property of platinum black of
condensing on its surface not only oxygen
but also light carburetcd hydrogen. In a wire
gauze chamber are placed pieces of pumice—
,stonc impregnated with platinum black; and
as all the air for maintaining the combustion
passes thro ll this chamber, all fire-damp is
destroyed fore reaching the flame.
Fleuss’s new diving apparatus dispenses
with the use of air-pumps, pipes and other
cumbrous appliances, and enables a diver to
carry in his dress an air-supply sufficient for
a four hours‘ stay under water. The prin-
ciple of the invention consists in purifying
the exhaled breath by means of caustic al—
kali and revivifying it again with oxygen.
In this way the diver breathes the same air
over and over-“again, minus the carbonic acid-
and plus fresh oxygen at every inspiration.
The oxygen is stored in a reservoir in the
helmet, from which the diver himself admits
it to the airLSpacc in his suit as he requires
it, a small valve giving him perfect control
over the supply. A recent test (If the appa-
ratus in England proved very satisfactory.
With much astonishment, witnesses of the
experimental trial beheld a man complectly
submerged for half an hour or more without
apparent injury.
Ocean waves and ‘currents exert an aggre-
gate power of which we can form but a faint
conception. In the west of Scotland, Stev-
enson found the average force of the waves
striking the coast to be I 611 pounds per
square foot during the summer and 2,086
pounds in the winter. A ground-swell beat-
. ing against the Bell Rock Light-house he es—
estimated to give a pressure ofnearly three
tons per square foot. Several instances-have
been recorded of the moving of bilge masses
in one case a block of concrete weighing 125
tons having been pushed more than three feet
from its bed. ’
His studies upon the influence of forests
on moist currents of air passing over them,
have convinced M. Fautrat that pines and
other needlelcaved trees have a strong at-
traction for watery vapor. He believes that
resinous trees absorb much more water than
other trees, and exhale it more rapidly.
The Marsbfield tornado Prof. Rice believes
to have been a storm of electricity, and en-
tirely independbut of wind.
During several hours on the night of March
29th, a shower of Meteorie dust, containing
fragments of metallic iron together with or—
ganic particles, fell at Catania. Sicily. Such
showers are supposed to be of not infrequent
Occurrence, although they are not often ob-
served. .

l'r NEVER Rams 1N COLORADO.—It' used
to be said, before the settlement of the coun-
try and breaking up of the soil, etc., “It
never rains in Colorado.” This could be said
without fear of much contradiction. All
this is changing apparently. Every succeed-
ing year notes the fall of more rain than the
previous year. Ihave been here since the
lastof March, and I will venture to say that
as much rain has fallen in Colorado as in
Connecticut during the same period. All of
the “old Baruacles," as the old settlers (59ers)
are called, note with increased astonishment
and disgust the prevalence of rain storms in
this usually dry section. Of course the
farmers of the State enjoy the prospective
change. The time may come when the necessi
ty of irrigation will not be felt as now. The
interests of agriculture in this State are to a
considerable degree overshadowed by the
mining interests, and 'in consequence their
the boundaries of the State. But a small
portion of the State is susceptible of cultiva-
tion, and the success of raising good crops
has depended heretofore and does now to a
large extent depend upon an organized sys-
tem of irrigation. And in those portions of
northern Colorado and in the San Louis val-
ley and in other localities in the southern
part, of the State where proper provisions
have been made for irrigation, nowhere can
be found more bountiful harvests 0r beauti-
ful fields. —Deneer Correspondence.
. u...—.—___
The cxa mination of Mr. Calkins, the pas—
tor elcct of the Eliot church, Newton, Mass,
seemed to have served as a revelation to some
of our Congregational brethren in the vicinity
of Boston, regarding the catholicity of the
Presbyterian church. Dr. Calkinsdeclared
his own personal acceptance of the “catholic
and reformed convictions of the whole
church of Christ," as broadly represented by
the various historic creeds, from the Nicene
creed to Saybrook platform, but that he did
not believe that acceptance of these beliefs
should be made a condition of admission to
the church. In response to the particular
questioning regarding the doctrine of endless
punishment, he declared his own belief in it,
but at the same time said that he should not
approve of witholding admission to the
church from one who did not so believe,
provided he gave evidence of being a child
-of'God through faith in Jesus Christ; that
the question of that belief especially was not
raised in his church at Buffalo, nor by the
Presbyterian church generally, as a test of
membership; that he had admitted “Univer-
salists" to his former church (Buffalo) and
that they were in good standing there.

, NEW ADVERTISEMENTS-
Practical Suggestions.
Young ladies who serve in the kitchen as.
well as entertain in the parlor'may be inter-
ested in these practical suggestions: .
Dry buckwheat, plentifully and faithfully
goods; never put water to such a grease spot
_or liquid of any kind.
To take fresh paint- off a woolen garment
rub the spots with stale bread until removed.
To remove ironmould from linemwash the'
spots in a strong solution of cream of tartar
and water; repeat it necessary, and dry in
the sun.
To take out tea stains, put the linen in a
kettle of cold water; rub the stains well with
common castile. soap, put the kettle on the
side of the stove, to let the water get gradul
ally warm; wash it- thoroughly in water soap
suds; then rub the stain again with soap,and
boil: then rinse. I
‘ To remove the lids of tin, cans, place a
shovclful of live coals on the top, which will
speedily unsoldcr them; they can then be re-
moved by the aid of an old case-knife; care
must be taken, or the side seam will also
open. '
To take out fruit stains, rub the part on
each side with yellow soap; then tie up a
piece of peat-lash in the cloth, and soak well
in hot water,or boil afterwards. Expose the
stained parts to the sun and air until re-
moved. ‘
To remove ink spots on floors, rub with
sand wet in oil 0f vitrol and water; when
the ink is removed, rinse 'with pearlash
water.
To clean tinwarc, dampen a cloth and dip
in common soda, and rub the ware briskly
after which wipe dry; any blackened ware
can be made to look as. geod as new.
The American Girl in Paris. .
An American girl in Paris writes: “We
went to the Madeleine to church this morn-
ing. It is not much like church, especially
when one stops to buy. things on the way
home. The French do all their shopping on
Sunday, but they are very particular not to
miss mass in the morning. The music at the
Madeleine was very fine, but the ceremony
was rather ridculous." ,
Soon after we came to the pension, they
announced a soiree for |Sunday evening.
The English girls rebelled at first, but at
last were prevailed upon to go, and they
danced until twelve o’clock at night. This
is not the worst of it. Soon afterwards the
most prudish of the English girls was seen
going to hear Sarah Bernhardt play on Sun-
day evening.
We are in the qiicercst of hotels now.
We have no femme do chamlre, but instead
an old man does all the chamber work. He
is ‘garcon’ in French, and B . and I call
him ‘thc old boy’ in plain English.
‘ I have French friends and English friends,
and several French comrades as they say
here, and if it was not for wanting to see
and and I should want
to stay here always. 0, dear, it is horrid to
have friends allover the world in this way!
If I :ever become rich I shall spend all my
time flying from continent to continent,
trying to stay acquainted withall my best
friends.
I shall never believe that the Freficb are
hypocritical. I have found‘ them very kind,
good hearted and frank. Of course French
girls are very different in their feeling from
Americans or English. The Americans are
a sort of cross between the English and
Frencthettcr than the English and a little
better than the French.”

What would I do without “the boys?"
How often they have been my friends. I go
to a new town. I don’t know one hotel
from another. I don’t know where to go.‘
The man with the samples gets off at the
same station. I follow him without a word
or a tremor. lie calls to the ’bus driver by
name and orders him to, “get out of this
now,” as soon as we are seated. And when
I follow him I am inevitably certain to go to
the best house there is in the place. He
shouts at the clerk by name, and fires a joke
at the landlord as we go in. He looks over
my shoulder as Iregister amr him,and hands
me his card with a about of recognition. He
peeps at the register again and watches the
clerk assign me to 98. “Ninety nothing,”,
he shouts, “who’s in 15 P" The clerk says
he is saving 15 for Judge Dryasdust. “Well,
he be blowed,” says my cheery friend, “give
him the attic and put this .gentleman in 15" 3
And if the clerk hesitates, he seizes the pen:
and gives himself, and then he calls the‘
porter, orders him to carry up my baggage
and put alfire in 15, and then in the same
breath adds: “What time you will be down to:
supper Mr. Burdett ?" And he waits for me,
and, seeing that I am a stranger in the town,
he sees that I am cared for, and the waitersf
do not neglect me; he tells me about the?
town, the people, and the business. He
is breezy, cheery, sociable, full of new stor—
ies, always good-natured; he frisks with
cigars and overflows with “thousand-mile
tickets ;” he knows all the best rooms in all
the hotels ; he always has a key for the car-
seats, and turns a seat for himself and his
friends without troubling the brakcman, but
he will ride on the wood-box or stand out-'
side to accommodate a'lady, or he will give;
his seat to an old man. I know him pretty?
with him, from Colorado to Maine, and I
have seen the worst and the best of him andi
I know the best far outweighs the worst. I:
glad he is numerous.

Celebrated Safes,
n purchasing a Safe, we wish to call your
at ention to some of the important advantages
our Safes possess over all others, and which
make them the cheapest and best Safes now
made. .
1st. Our “PATENT INSIDE BOLT Wonx”
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 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 HINGED CAP” consists
of the back plate of the door being hung _on
hinges, and. fastened by a thumb—screw,whlch
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 Form—WVnnnr. LOOKS on all
safes, from the sins lest to the largest, and. for
simplicity and dura ility cannot be excelled.
4th. All out Safes are IRON-LINED INSIDE,
instead of wood-lined as in other safes, which
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, pre—
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 fits 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 im-
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 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 preservn their
contents from fire. lVo make but one class
of Safes, Which is the best we know how to
produce. 9.;nd for descriptive catalogue.

MAX ADELER.
While Colonel Bangs, editor of the Argus,
wassitting in his office one dhy, a man whose
brow was clothed with thunder entered.
Fiercely seizing a chair, he slammed his hat
on the table, llurled his umbrella on the floor
and sat down. ,
“Are you the editor
“Yes.” I
“Can you read writing ?”
“Of course.”
“Read that, then," he said, thrusting at the
colonel an envelope, with an inscription upon
flan]3
it.
“That’s not a B. It’s an S,” said the man.
“S; 0 yes; I see! Well, the words look a
little like ‘Salt for dinner,’ or ‘Souls of sin-
ners,” said the colonel.
. “N o, sir,” replied the man, “nothing of the
kind! That’s my name—Samuel II.- Brunner.
I knew you couldn’t read. I called to see
you about that poem of mine you printed the
other day, on the ‘Surcease of Sorrow.’ ” f,
“I don’t remember it,” said the colonel.
“Of course you don’t, because it went into
the paper under the infamous title of ‘Smcar-
case To-Inorrow.’ ”
“A stupid blunder of the compositor’s,I
suppose.”
“Yes, sir; that’s what I want to see you
about. The way in which that poeumvas
mutilated was simply scandalou. I haven't
slept a night since. It exposed me to deri—
sion. People think I am an ass. Let me
show you.”
“Go ahead,” said the colonel.
“The first line, when I wrote it, read in
this way:
‘Lying by a weepin
gentle slope.’
That is beautiful, poetic, affecting. How now
did your vile sheet present it to the public ?
There it is !' Look at that! Made it read this
way:
‘Lying to a weeping widow to induce her to
-elopc.’
Weeping widow, mind you! A widow ? 0
thunder and lightning! This is too much!
It’s enough to drive a man crazy !” '
“I’m sorry,” said the colonel ; “but——”
“But look a—here at the fourth verse,’
said the poet. “Thht’s worse yet. What I
said was : -
‘Cast thy pearls before the swine, and lose
them in the dirt.”
I wrote that out clearly and distinctly, in a
plain, round hand. Now, what does your
compositor do? Does he catch the sense of
that beautiful sentiment? Does it sink into
his soul? No. sir. He sets it up in this fash—
ion. Listen:
‘Cart thy pills before the sunrise, and love
them if they hurt.’.
Now isn’t that a cold-blooded outrage on a
man’s feelings? I’ll leave it to you if it isn’t."
“It’s hard, that’s a fact,” said the colonel.
“And then take the fifth verse. In the
original manuscript it sald,plain as daylight:
‘Tukc away the jingling. money; it is only
glittering dross !’
A man with only one eye, anda cataract over
that, could have read the words correctly.
But your pirate up stairs there, do yell know

“He is out, just now,” said the colonel.
