A Dream ofthe Soul.

I do not mean dreams 0f the flesh, of the
night, and of eep, but dreams of the soul,
of a midnigh blackness, a tempest, a sea, a
little boat in the midst thereof, that little
boat sent out by Jeanne little frightened crew
tossed by anmiwaves, pulling with all their
might, tired, discouraged, perplexed, almost
engulfed, no leader in that little boat, but
ah, from every- soul goes out strong cries,
come, 0, come, blessed Jesus, come down
from the mountain, come down from prayer,
up there. all alone with your God, come, and
help us bring our little boat to land.

And now bend low your he'ad and hear the‘
voice of Jesus. . -
Be of good cheer. It is I, be not afraid.
And see nowin their midst is Jesus, and all
gliding over clear. blue, calm waters. They
are talking to Him, their hand in His. They
know they are safe. They are content and
happy. .Blessed Jesus, see us also, hear our‘
cry, come quickly, for trouble and fatigue,
and anxiety andlperplexities, rise all round
us, even as black tempest waves. Let us
awake, still clinging to Thee, in the endless
day, safe out from our frail burque, into out
Father’s House, and so be ever withThee,

and dear ones_gone before. '

The Rev. E. D. Bentley did not appear in

the pulpit of the first Baptist church on
Sunday last, (3d), the service being conduct-

ed by the Rev. Mr. Smith'(colored) who had 3

been engaged to supply the desk. Mr. Smith
is a good, solid preacher, and gave excellent
. satisfaction.

We understand the Rev. Mr. B. was in
town yesterday, but did not ofilciate for the
reason that the church, at a meeting held on
Thursday evening last, summarily dismissed
him from the pastorate. It is reported that
the church has long felt dissatisfied with
its pastor and his methods, and about. three
months ago 'a méetiug cth'he'church wasnall-
ed by :no‘ friends ’of Mr. B. ' to censider
whether they would retain himlongsr or not,
it being hoped by them to secure a large ma-
jority vote in his favor. ‘ Fate wemed to be
against them, and a vote to discontinue the
pastoral relations. was the result... After this.
vote was taken the impression was that Mr.2

B. would tender his resignation during the; .

three succeedingi mound; which he claimed. -‘
should. be properly extended to‘ him. In
deferenceto his wishesthe . courtesy of the
mentioned was accorded and rumor says it .
was agreed'that if the church and : society ‘
did “the fair thing" by him, ache termed it,
he (B.) in turn would treat them fairly also,
which was understood to mean that hewould _.
resign quietly. . . _ . . 1
The three months having expired the pas.
tor 'still'remaincd immovable and determined
to retain his position, and the church re-
mained firm in its edict .that his relations
should close on June 80th, and as he had not
nor would not tender his resignation the
action taken by the church lastweek was the;. ,
only alternative.‘ . ' _ _ _ ,.
It seems Mr. B. could not see. things in the
light in which they were presented to him,
and heedless of much timely advice and
counsel from his friends, endeavored to hold
his position defiantly, against the expressed ,
wishes of his parislipnors. , Intense excitc-g
ment has prevaich among the factions in the; ;
church and soéietyhahd many warm. words,- .

j The plan of improvement adopted-in 1872
ddntemplated a channel 100 feet wide and 6

.a
the width was made from 100 to 125 feet.
The estimated cost of the improvement has
,been exceeded for thefollowing reasons;

:Middle Ground at Norwalk; and, last, to
swiden and deepen the channels at the bends
Elabove the railroad bridge.

' In accordance with this plan proposals for
dredging were invited, and on August 28
were opened. - ' ' - ‘ .

_ Messrs. H. N. d: A. J. Beardsley, of Bridge-
port, Conn., being the lowest bidders, were
awarded the contract for doing the work at
the following prices : For material removed
from the Middle Ground,.38 cents per cubic
yard; ' from the channel below South Nor-
walk, 10 cents per cubic yard. _Work was
commenced. September 10, 1870, and comple-
ted March 13,1880. 'During this time 17,301

From the detectors shooting in the Bal-

ing until very measly ‘midnight, but little, if

were entertained 'byi‘tllej ’Thysiciau's who at-

His one: thought,'._when=;'it became possible
for him to. :think calmly stall after being
removedftoghis‘ cheruber in the Executive
Mansion, was'for his 'wife and :ehildren.
He feared the effect of the terrible neWs up-

 

ber and their daughter Mollie with him, that
he might. ‘reassure them, if possible, and
look‘ upon them for the last time if it was
decreed. that he shouldsdie‘. He was very»
weak'at this time, and to all appearances
sinking fast. He was told by Mrs, James,
wife of the postmaster general and Mrs.
Hunt, who were doing all that sympathetic
women could do to make him comfortable,
that Mrs. Garfield would be with him by six
o’clock. Every moment seemed an age to
the fast sinking father and husband. He
turned restlessly in his bed and asked the
time of day continually. It was evident that
his anxiety to meet Mrs. Garfield was
aggravating the effect of the wounds which
he had received, but nothing could be done.
Six o’clock came, and with it, instead of
Mrs. Garfield, the news that the engine of
her train had broken down seventeen miles
outside of Washington. This news was care-

fully'kept from the suffering president, and

a fresh engine started off to take the place of

the disabled one. It brought Mrs. Garfield, ‘

Mollie Garfield, General Swaim and Mrs.
Rockwell to the city, at the rate of sixty
miles an hour and at 6:50 the party drove up
to the private entrance in the rear of the
White House.

Here'the almost heart-broken wife was
met by her son, James A. Garfield, Jr.,
Mrs. James, and Attorney-General Mac
Veagll. She placed her hands in those of
Mrs. James and directing a piercing inquiry

into the eyes, exclaimed interrdgativelygi

“Well 7”, “Oh, everything is going 'on beau-
tifully," said Mrs. James, in reply, “only he
must not ' be excited. You must be very
calm when you meet him.” Mrs. Garfield
had herved herself for the ordeal and she
answered simply, but with great firmness:
“I can do it." The party then went sadly
up the-stairs, young James .A Garfield with
his arm about his mother’s waist. . Arrived
in the library, eyerybody but' Mrs. Garfield
paused, and the doctors withdrew with
bowed heads from the president’s chamber.
Mrs. Garfield passed quickly. in, and the
door was closed. Of that solemn meeting
between husband and wife no record will
ever be given. The two were alone together
without Witnesses. At the end of about 15
minutes the door opened and Mrs. Garfield
came slowly out. There were no tears in'ller
eyes, and she walked with a firm step and
took herrseat in the library. She was very
brave and bore up nobly unerthe great blow
which had fallen upon her. As she left the
room Mrs. James passed in. The president
was smiling and he beckoned with his finger
toithe lady to approach. She leaned over
the president and he said: “Have you met
Crete !" Mrs. Garfield's Christian name is
Lucretsa, and Crete is the pet name by which
the president always speaks of her. “YEs, I
have met her,” said Mrs. James. “Andhow
does she set! how does she bear it i" was the
next eager question.‘ “She bore it like the
true wife of a true soldier," answered Mrs.
James. “Ah, the dear little woman," ex-
claimed the president, “I would rather die
than that this should cause a relapse to her.”

Soon after Miss Mollie entered the room.
She too, was very brave, and forced herself
to assume a calmness which she could not
feel. Advancing-steadily'toward her father’s
deathbed, she said ; “Oh, papa, I'm so glad
to get back to you, but I’m so sorry to see

speaking unadvisedly, so that at the time of
his dismisSsl_'-,'tbéy ' .werel'sadly; in the mi-

reported the matter at length and gave a gen-
eral statement of some. things which have
transpired. ' ” '

WESTPORT. _

The late Adam Foery, who died suddenly
two weeks ago, was an enterprising and
diligent German from Baden. He bought a.
few acres ”of low. swamp land full of bogs
and stones formerly belonging to John
Sturges, and in a short time transformed it
into a garden,from which the most luxuriant.
crops were produced. Those obstacles in the
soil which so often discourage the sons of
native farmers driving them away from home
into stores and any business but that farming,
were overcome by Mr. Foery. Such a man
among our rough hills and valleys is worth
his weight in gold, and his loss cannot easily

and the president, putting his arms around
her neck, exclaimed: “Mollie, you’re a
brave, good llittle girl.” “Well, I’m not

hearted little girl. as she tenderly removed
his arm from her neck : “wait till you get

the . room, folowed by a beaming smile from
the president.

From the moment of Mrs. Garfield' visit
to him the president seemed to gain in
strength and spirits, and if he recovers the
doctors say that it will be due greatly to the
presence of his devotedwife. After Mollie
left him he turned over, and with one hand
clasped firmly in one of Mrs. Jumes’s, and
his head resting upon her other hand, he fell
into r gentle sleep. In half an hour, how-

with an anxious. face and said, “I want her
to go to bed.. - Will you tell her that I say if
she will undress and go to bed I will turn

energy, that I will sleep all night if she
will do what I as ." -Mrs.‘James conveyed
the message to Mrs. Garfield, who said to her
'at once: “Go back and tell him that I am

A Beautiful Life.

We have in works of fiction'a'nd otherwise
much description of life in the ideal. Here
is one in the concrete; one who but a few

revealed in the presence of not a few of this

community. _ . .
The body of Mrs. John Only, a sister of
the late William B. Astor, and a lady well
known in New York for her large and un-
ostcntiltious charities, was buried recently in
Newport. A correspondent. of the Newport
News,fiwho knew her intimately, writes:
“Her character might be given in three
words—humility, generosity, tenderness—
peculihr humility, peculiar-generosity, pep
culiargtenderness. all accompanled by a man-
ner of? the most attractive courtesy. Now lt
is very much to say this, but it is far more
to say that these virtues : flourished ln ‘ a
strange soil, for she was born to the pros-
perity; which too often turns: humility into
prid'e,inakes selfish thegcnerous and hardens
the tender. But she, like some fine plant,

MIDSUMMER.

BY MRS. CELIA THAXTIR.

White as a blossom is the kerchief quaint,

Over her sumptuous shoulder lightly laid;

Fairer than any picture men could paint,

In the cool orchard’s fragrant light and
shade. ~

She stands and waits: some pensive dream
enfolds '

Her beauty sweet, and bows her radiant
head : ,

The delicate pale roses that» she holds

Seem tel) have borrowed of her check their

She waits, like some superb but drooping
flower, _ -

To feel the touch of morning and the sun,

And o’er her head the glowing petals shOWer.

And to her feet the shifting sunbeams run.

I follow to her feet their pathway fine ;
And while my voice the charmed silence
’ breaks,
What startled'splendors from the deep eyes
shine! . 4
Into what glory my rich- flower awakesl

SCIENTIFIC illSCELLANI.

Becquel has proven that frost penetrates
grasscovered ground much more slowly than
bare ground.

. A Roumanian engineer is reported to have
produced a new submarine boat capable of
remaining under water for twelve hours and
which may be sunk to a depth Bf seven or
eight hundred feet. Illumination on board
the vessel enables its officers to see for a
distance of one hundred and thirty feet un-
der water. In the light of recent progress, V
the realization _of Jules Verne’s “Twenty
Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" seems an
almost probable event of the future.

The tracing of the “evolution of the
tides" is a work in which Mr. G. H. Dar-
win. son of the great naturalist, has long
.been engaged. The results of his labors
formed the subject of a recent lecture by Dr.
Ball, the Astronomer Royal for Ireland.
The effect of the tides on the earth is to re-
duce its .late of rotation and lengthen its day.
As the earth from this cause turns slower
rand slower the moon must be gradually re-
ceding from it. This has been going on for
ages, and millions of years ago—how many
millions cannot ;be .told—the ; earth must
have revolved on its axis in two or three
hours, while the moon, then very near to the
earth must have whirled around the larger
globe in a period equal to the earth’s day.
Mr. Darwin traces the tidal evolution to this
primeval condition of things. Farther back
is uncertainty, but he conjectures that in a
very remoloperiod a mass of matter must
have been violently thrown ad from the
earth, forming the moon. In the early days
of the latter, its effect on the earth’s surface
must have been tremendous, producing tides
a thousand or two thousand feet high.

Faure‘s new secondary or storage battery,
brings that valuable agent, electricity, within
easy reach of the surgeon. A practical ap-
plication of the new battery has been suc-
cessfully made by Dr. George Buchanan, of
the University of Glasgow, in the removal
of a tumor from the tongue. As the new in-
strument enables one to carry stores of elec-
tricity in small compass, Dr. Buchanan be- ,
lieves the use of the electric current will now
be greatly extended.

It is asserted that the common black ant
is largely cultivated by the leading orchards
of northern Italy and southern Germany.
They believe the insect to be the fruit grow-
er’s best friend. They establish ant hills in
\their orchards, and leave the trees in the
exclusive care of the tiny colonists, whose
time is devoted to climbing the stems of the
fruit trees and cleansing their bark and _
leaves of all malefactors, mature as well as
embryotic. The spoils thus secured are
brought to the ground,and consumed or safely
stored away. They never meddle with sound
. fruit, but invade only such apples, pears and
plums as have already been penetrated by the
canker, fastncsses within the very heart of
the fruit. Nowhere are apple and pear trees
so free from blight and destructive insects as
in the immediate neighborhood of a large ant
hill five or six years old. The favorite food
of the ants appears to be the larvea and
pupal of those insects most destructive to the
tender shoots and young leaves of fruit
trees. ’

For several years, a French chemist has
been engaged in the interesting experiment
of raising plants in a soil produced artifici-
ally. His plants have been unusually thrifty.

A discovery [of more than usual interest
in connection with the history of ancient-
men, has been made in Spain. Some lead
mines in the province of Segovia, about
seventy miles northward of Madrid, recently
broke into an immense cavern, in the interior
of which they found, upon an argillaceous
deposit and in the midst of stslsgmites the
remains of about five hundred human skele-
tons of both sexes. Chipped stone and quartz
implements, and fragments of rude pottery,
were also obtained. Ten well shaped and
perfect skulls of a prehistoric ape were re.
covered. ,

The personal interest taken in. scientific
matters by the Emperor of Brazil is shown
by a note which he has recently transmitted
to the French Academy upon the time of
Jupiter’s rotation. The sharpness of outline
and distinctncss of the color “bf the great
brown spot which has been so long visible
upon J upiteris surface has enabled a Brazilian
astronomer, Mr. Crall, to deduce from nearly
1100 rotations a period of 9 h. 52 m. 36 s. as
the length of day of the huge planet.

The largest photographs ever produced
have been made by a photographer of Syd.
ney, Australia. Among his subjects are two
panoramic views of the cities of Sydney? and
Melbourne, each composed of about a dozen
separate sheets harmoniously united. One
picture, printed from a single negative, is
five by three feet.~
A special form of the Swan electric lamp
—which lamp is constructed on principles
almost identical with Edison‘s—has been
designed as a safety lamp in coal mines. It
is perfectly safe as long as the glass is not
broken, and there .is no “sparking" from
broken wires. This method of underground
lighting is soon to be tried experimentally in
an English colliery.

 

CuriOsities J Earth.

At the city of Medina; in Italy, and about
four miles around it,'whercver the earth is
dug, when the workman arrive at a distance
of sixty-three feet, they come to a bed of
chalk, which they here with an augur, five
feet deep. They then withdraw from the
pit before the anger .is removed, and upon its
extraction the water bursts up through the
aperture with great violence, and quickly
fills the newly-made well, which continues
full and is affected by neither rains nor
drought. But what is the most remarkable
in this operation is the layer of earth as we
descend. At the depth of fourteen feet are
found the ruins of an ancient city, paved
streets, houses, floors, and different pieces 0‘
mason work. Under this is found a soft,
oozy earth, made up .of vegetables, and at
twentysix feet large trees, with the walnuts
still sticking to the stem, and the leaves and
branches in a perfect state. of preservation.
At twenty-eight fceta soft chalk isfound,
mixed with a vast quantity. of shells, and
the bed is two feet thick. Under this vege-
tables are found again.
