-'l‘; .‘Olosing Campalfll. -

We congratulate every man who has any
peraonal interest in the affairs of the country,
who has anything to gain by national pror
perity or to lose by national adversity, upon
the result of the October elections. That re-
sult has snared, so far as political assurance
is possible, a similar result in November,
and oflan to every Republican, within S
fortnight, a fitting crown to an arduous cam,
paign of four months.

That campaign has shown beyond a per-
adventure the marvelous vitality of the prin-
ciples of Bcpubllcanvparty. Our opponents
taunted us With inability to. produce any ar-
gument beside the “bloody shirtJ’ They ate
their words, t u-ir practices, their ideas, and
the ruling passions of their political natures,
by nominating, through Southern votes, a
distinguished Union general as a trap to
catch the soldier vote and ,wash the “bloody
shirt” forever. The Republican party took
them as thty offered themselves, accepted
battle on the ground selected by the Democ-
racy, and now, as hitherto. the result is the
rout of Democratic horse, foot, and artillery,
and the renewal of the lease of power to its
natural and fitting possessor... the national
Republican party. Hereafter the Democracy
may as well disband. By continuing. their
existence as a party they can only do the Re-
publican party a service by furnishing it a
weak and easily beaten opposition, and that
we should hardly consider the main object
of Our Democratic friends.

The future career of the country, under
Republican auspices, may be easily calcula—
ted. The population increases so rapidly
that there are children in Norwalk to—dsy
who will live to be citizens of the most pow-

, erful nation in the world,a nation of 200,000.
000 civilized people, rich in natural wealth,
in acuteness of intellect, and in business en—
terprise. Shch a nation cannot be ruled on
the old Democratic idea of selfish local gov-
ernment. The government which is able also
to command-the respect and obedience of
every citizen at home, whether it bathe riot-
er of New York, the moonshiner of Georgia,

or the bulldozer of Louisiana. A strong as ,

tional government, responsible to the peo-

ple, controlled by the people, and beloved by
the people, is the inevitable necessity of the

United States.’ ‘ .

The Republican party has no hatred for
the South. It invites,'it asks, it will even
implore its brethren of the South to unite
with it in the great work of strengthening
the national government, and of ensuring
peace, order, and good government through-
out the entire country in future. But the
South must understand that ifi'it’willfully
thrusts itself inilthewvaypf the [chariot of
progress it 'willi bev‘crushed. There will be
neither malice nor compunction about the
matter. The law of gravitation has neither
malice nor mercy, and no more has'the law
of human progress. ~This country isto be

And now the great work for the, Republi-
cans is to gather in the slack rope and make
everything tent for the election. No slack-
ening a muscle, no sitting down with the
idea that the victory is won. There is .great
work in hand still, great work. The victory
must be so overwhelming that even the
audacity of a Democratic Congress will not
suffice to overturn it by the process of law.

'And one thing further, whose deep and
tremendous importance can be fully appre—
ciatcd only by thoughtful and watchful ment

both branches, so that, if the present Con~
gross undertakes to play any tricks with the
count, President Hayes may'et Once summon

Let neighbor join neighbor and every man,

The Silver Wedding of Mr. and Mrs.
Walter Edmonds, was celebrated on the
evening of Oct. 23. It took the form of a
surprise visit, which was arranged and man-
aged by a few friends, of whom Mrs. Joseph
squires was the chief. It was designed to
take place on the preceding evening, but the
severe storm prevented. In' that case it
would have been a complete surprise to both
Mr. and Mrs E. Mrs. E. had been away
from home for three days and had not re—
ceived the least inkling of the matter. She
was therefore greatly astonished to come
home at the beginning of the evening, and
to find her house decorated with mottoes and
trimmings, and arranged for a festive occa—
sion. A very fine cook stove, [the present in
its place,‘ and glowing with fire, and friends
present to welcome her. Besides the stores
there were other beautiful gifts, among
which was an autograph album, in which all
visitors were invited to write their own
names.

Alarge company assembled to greet the
groom and bride of twenty-five years ago.
A, sumptuous repast had been provided by
'the friends present. There were congratu-
lations and music. All seemed to greatly
enjoy the occasion. Before the repeat, the
following lines, written for the occasion by
a friend, were read by Rev. W. J. Jennings :

(We gather here, with vows of cheer
Dear friends, on this eventful day,—

This milestone—for this dying year
Completes a quarter century

.Sinceithese dear faithful hearts have breathed
Before high Heaven, their marriage vo as ;
We deem it well to celebrate
Their happy “Silver Wedding" now.

But not with silver have we come,
For 'tis not always wise, we wear,

Though silver gifts in bright array,

' ' With beauty flash and,lustre keen.

.We choose a batter metal for,—
Our strong and tired in all the arts;
We make our gift when filled with fire,
The symbol of our loving hearts,

SO keep it ever glowing, friends,

And as you muse, as oft you will,
Besides its handsome polished form,

May happy thoughts your memories fill.

enough _is given, this safe, planned by one of
the most experienced safe makers 'in the
United States, was commenced soon after
the burglary in February last, and was built
on the same principle, that General Grant
went into Vicksburg-that it should be burg-
lar proof complete “if it took all summer."
Attached, to the safe is a Yale Lock, double
movement, with Sunday attachment.
fact there are two locks—the Sargent and
Greenleaf, and'Peerless patents. The me—
chanism of these locks as operated On by the
two clock movements are indescribably in—
tricate, displaying wonderful ingenuity in
design and excellence of workmanship.

Operate elsewhere. Thedoor of theirsafe is

morning it stands guard and not even the
president may effect entrance. He must
await his time like the rank and file of in-
terested parties. While the cost of this safe
is very great, the security it affords is worth
more than a thousand times the cost.

For making an assault on his aged mother,

probably have been let off with a fine. But,
being a'democrat he lov liberty though in
this case not entitled to it, and not relishing
bars and grates between him and freedom,
though placed by law, broke the barriers
which held. him and escaped. Instead of
hastening out of Deputy Burns reach he lin-
gered along the road, and meeting his cousin
Charley Hurlbutt was advised to “git." He
got as far as the Stony Brook highway and
there concluded haste need not be employed.
In fact he actually decided to return home
and hide in the barn. On the way thence
he stopped at' Mrs. William H. Marvin's to
whom he gave his story and was again told
to “git." He was about to do so when the
ofiicers of the law who had been following
his tracks pounced on and made him a
prisoner. He was taken before Justice Finch
and sentenced to 20 days and a fine of $5.00

A LONG FELT WANT sUrrLlEn—now IT
WORKED.
New York Tribune,
The need of some means of prompt com-
munication between the‘ clergyman in the
pulpit and the sexton at the other end of
the church has long been apparent. There
are constantly arising contingencies in which
it is absolutely necessary that the minister
should communicate with the sexton. For
example, the minister wants a glass of water
or, in the ease of Mr. Talmage‘a lotion fora
sprained leg. He needs to ask a question of
a vestryman, or wants to have a-wnrden
waited up or a crying baby removed. In
these circumstances the aid of the sexton is
indispensable, but as that functionary is at
the extreme end of the church, and is, per—
haps, absorbed in watching a pew full of
boys who are on the point of breaking into
disorder, his attention cannot be attracted.
Many plans have been devised by ingenious.
ministers to establish communication with
the sexton. There was Rev. Sanford, of
Sheboygan, who invented a code of hand-
kerchief signals. One wave of the
handkerchief meant that he wanted
water. Holding one end Of the handker—
chief in his teeth and the other in his right
hand meant “shake a boy on the right side
of the church ;" and waving the handker-

chief three times around his head was an or-

der to the sexton to poke the fire. The sys-
tem was lngenious, but did not work for the
sexton constantly misunderstood the signals
and the congregation assumed that the min—
ister was engaged in a flirtation with the
soprano of the choir, and hlglsignals :were
made for her benefit. The result was a
scandal and an ecclesiastical trial. the remem-
brance of which is still fresh in the reader’s
memory. ' -

Then there was the Methodist minister of
Oshkosh, who agreed with the sexton that
whenever he exclaimed ,“O, my brethren l"
a glass of water should be brought to him.
This was for a time quite successful, but one
day the minister exchanged pulpits with a
Baptist friend, without warning the sexton
that the Baptist knew nothing of the signal
code ; so it happened that the Baptist
preacher began seventy-three sentences by
actual count with the exclamation, “O, my
brethren l” and,every_time the sexton brought
him a glass of water, Of course, this at-
tracted attention, and excited the minister’s
indignation, who regarded it as a sarcasm on
his denominational fondness of water. Still,
it is doubtful if he was excusable for throw-
ing the seventy-third glass, with its contents
at the head of the sexton; and certainly his
conduct in kicking the latter down the pul-
pit stairs admits of no justification. The
sexton, Of course, felt himself outraged, and
ever afterward refused to answar any signal
that was made to him from the pulpit.

The Rev. Mr. Carn, a popular Presby—
terian minister in the interior of this State,
invented a system of signaling his sexton
which had very marked merits. He caused
a wire to be run from the pulpit to the sex—
ton's pew, where it connected with a pair of
leather coated iron clamps so constructed
that when the wire was pulled the clamps
would gently pinch the sexton‘s leg. The
wire ran underneath the flooring of the
meeting-house, and the clamps were con-
cealed under the sexton’s seat, so that. no one
except the minister and the sexton was aware
of the existence of the sacred telegraph, It
was found to work beautifully. When the
minister wanted water, he pulled the wire
once. Two pulls meant that he wanted to
speak to the sexton, and three pulls meant
“turn up the gas." The congregation won-
dered how it happened that the service. went
on so smoothly, and that the sexton always
d’d the right thing at the right time, but they
were distined to make a painful discovery of
the true state of affairs.

On the last Sunday in June of this year
the sexton brought with him to the morning
service his middle aged maiden aunt, who
was paying him a brief visit, and whose heir
he hOped to be. By some unexplained acci-
dent he forgot all about the signal wire, and
showed the aunt into the seal: which he or-
dinarily occupied, and was obliged to take
another seat on the opposite sideof the aisle.
Directly behind the aunt, sat Deacon Brown,
one of the pillars of the congregation—an
aged man or most unblemished character.

The minister had begun his sermon and
had justfifinished hisextraordiuary, when he
felt thirsty and signalled for a glass of
water. To his surprise, there was no an—
swer made to the signal. Probably the mai-
den aunt was surprised more than the min-
ister, for as soon as she felt the soft pressure
of the clamps she started in great alarm. and
turning her head, gave the innocent Deacon
a look of indignant virtue. The latter be—
trayed no signs of guilt, but continued to
gaze steadilyat the pulpit with a peace-
ful and happy expression of face; Present‘y
the minister, thinking that the sexton must
have failed to understand the signal, pulled
the wire again. The maiden aunt with her
cheeks glowing with rage, turned once more
to the placid and unsuspectingiDéac'on and
whispered fiercely to him that “he had bet.-
ter behave himself, or she’dlet him know.”
The good man thinking that a poor lunatic
was in front of him, paid no attention to the
remarks, and in a few moments was once
‘more wrapped tn the sermon.By tllisvtimc the
minrster. becoming extremely thirsty; gave
the signal for the sexton to come to the pul-
pit. What was his horror to see instead of
the sexton an infuriated maiden aunt arise to
her feet and, fall upon Deacon Brown with
her umbrella and an evident purpose of ex-
terminating that inbfienSive man. "

Of course the sexton rushed to the rescue‘
and dragged his aunt away. Though the
mystery of the clamps was subsequently ex-
plained to her, the explanation only turned
her indignation from the Deacon to the min-
ister, who, said, ought to be ashamed of him-
self, and deserved to be tarred and feathered.
The‘é'll'pshot of the affair was that the sacred
telegraph was removed, and the minisetr now
preaches without water and is completely out
offfr'om the sexton during service.

GINGERBREAD.

Breathes there a man'with soul so dead
Who loves not new-baked gingerbread 1'
Who. stepping through the kitchen door,
On baking day, sees goodly store

0:“ fragrant, umber-shadowed cake.
And—half-unconscious—does not break
A ragged chunk ? Ah. toothsomc bliss!
He is achurl who knows not this,

For him no practiced dexter wrist

Shall limp. incipient doughnuts twist;
Or stir, to coax his gourmand taste,
Creamy meringue and flaky paste,
Though he may live on Nob Hill's top;
And hold his gold with miser’s grip-
Though he my own the whole long list
Of Vintner’s board, by cobweb’s kissed-
May dine from Sevres, drive a “cart,"
And sit on “decorative art"—

Despitc his gastronomic books,

Despite his white capped Gallic cooks, '
The wretch, concentrated in his pride,
Shall live and cat—unsatisfied.

And when kind Providence—or gout—-
Shall snufi.’ his farthing rushlight out,
The stem recorder of the skies

Against the tombstones gilded lies
(Counting the virtues of the dead)

Shall write: "He loved-not gingerbread l"

SCIENTIFIC MISCELL'ANY.

. According to Sir J. H. Lefroy, the ground
In British North America, at Fort Norman,
on the Mackenzie River, is permanently
frozen to a depth of forty-five feet; and 81
York factory, on Hudson Bay, but twenty-
three feet; while at Yakutsk, Siberia, in
about the same latitude, it is frozen 280 feet
deep.

A disease of salmon, caused by a fungus,
prevails extensively in England and Scotland
Scientists have been investigating the matter,
but have been unable to find a remedy, al—
though the chief agenfs in the development
of the disease are believed to be the pollu—
tion of waters and overcrowding.

A very successful experiment with a com-
pressed air locomotive was lately made at
Woolwich, England. The engine was pro-
vided with a reservoir Of 100 cubic feet ca—
pacity. With air filling this chamber at 1,000
pounds’ pressure on starting, a run of sixteen
miles was easily made at‘a fair rate of speed.
80 great are the advantages of “bottled air”
for street railways, tunnels, etc., that an early
adoption of this class of motors in many 10-
calities is sanguinely expected. The compres-
sion of air is effected by means of stationary
steam engines.

At the August meeting of the American
Association Prof. Bell showed the startling
fact that light may be made to produce
sound. M. Trave now claims that he has
succeeded in reversing this result, and has
described to the French Academy an experi-
ment by which he believes a transformation
of sound into light is produced.

Ocean soundings show that along the en— .
tire coast of California a depth of 1,500
fathoms or more is reached within ‘a distance
of from twenty to seyenty miles wesEW‘brd
from the shores, the greater part of this and-
den fall occurring in the last ten to fifty
miles. At one hundred miles west of San
Francisco the bottom is found to be over
2,500 fathoms deep. The bed of the ocean
continues Of a uniform depth greater than
1,500 fathoms until the Sandwich Islands are
reached, the greatest depth being 3,000 fath-
oms, at a distance of about four hundred
miles east of Honolulu, which great depth is
maintained until within ninety miles of that
place.

The manufacture of finesew‘ng thread

A curious phenomenon has been observed
in the valley of the Rhone, in France. A
very violent wind often. prevails in the
neighborhood of Uzes, which forcibly drives
large quantities of sand against a hand of
quartzose pebbles. The oft-renewed friction
of the sandy particles against the surface of
the pebbles has worn deep cavities in the
latter so smooth and regular that they might
readily be regarded as specimens of man's
handiwork.

The eruption of Mount Etna in 1669, ac-
cording to a French journal, was the most
formidable of historic times. The side of
the mountain opened for a length of about
four miles,, and there issued from it a torrent
of lava four miles broad, which, after. de-
stroying several villages and half of . the city
of Catane, flowed into the sea and formed a
promontory two miles long by half a. mile
wide and sixty feet high. At the same time

the scoria and sand thrown out by the craters
formed a mountain with a double crest, to
which the name Monti Rossi has been given.
The higher of the two crests is about 800
feet above Etna, and 3,000 feet above the
sea. The cone of Monti Rossi contains two
immense extinct craters, and, descending one
of them in 1823, an explorer found at the
end of a series of galleries a vast rectangular
room exactly in the center of the mountain.
This remarkable grotto- has since been open-
ed to travelers, and is illuminated by magne-
sium light.
Another feat in telegraphy is recorded. A
messdge of sixty—nine words was lately sent
from Melbourne at 1 p. m , and reached Lon-

the message was but twenty-three minutes in
transit. Distance, 13,398 miles.

Rev. Mr. Genuflux fell down stairs, last
Sunday morning, with a flower-vase in one
hand, a pitcher of water in the other, a lamp
globe under his arm and a china saucer
tucked in his coat pocket. He was trying to
carry all these things tdowu stairs and he
succeeded. But when he got to the bottom
and his anxious wife screamed from the head
of the stairs to know if he had broken any-
thing,he took an ac count of stock and calmly
reported that “he had broken everything but

the Sabbath.” “The only thing,” petulantly
commented his careful and economical wife,
“that we could afford to break. ”

“Awful Work”

Very valuable testimony to the excellence
of the work Mrs. Hayes has done for the
cause of temperance, is found in a recent let-
ter from Washington to a Hartford paper.
The writer had talked with a “drummer"
from a 'New York liquor house, who was
emphatlc on the decrease of the trade in
Washlngtpn. He said " We don't sell one
case of rum in Washington now, Where we
sold thlrty some'years ago. Mia. Hayefi'
‘ N 0 Wine at state dinners ' may havesounded
easy to other peOple, but it was almost a
sound of death to the wine trade. Many is
the time we have sold hundreds of boxes to
dealers who we knew, in turn. furnished
them to the executive mansion That trade
is entirely gone now. Mrs. Hayes having
declared against wine, of course it became
unfashionable in a manner. and its consump-
tion in Washington fell off very much.
Last winter there was one case of wine sold
where forty were sold even ten years ago.”

 

 

'Tne paragraph is headed “ Mrs. Hayes’ Aw-

ful Work." We are ready to see a at
deal more of just such “awful work" all
over the land. And may God bless the
brave woman Who inaugurated so true are-
