Ho! ye good Temperance. folks!
Sons and fair Daughters! ‘
Thrice Welcome today
To these woods and these waters!
High Rocktoweranobly
As if it were proud
Of gathering beneath it
So comely a crowd.
This stream seems to say '
As it hastes to the sea,
“These cold-water folks
Are the people for me.”
E’en the boats on the river
Are bidding good cheer
To those who prefer them
To “schooners” of beer
The trees nod a greeting
To “shades" that are sweet
With a balm that is healing i
A glorious treat. '
(Fine trees are here gathered,
But, pardon the speech,
The Grandest of all
Is one marvellous Beach !)
The Glen bubbles over
With laughter and song,
At welcoming hither
A cold water throng.
Then take the cup
And fill it up .
At the brim of the bright cascade;
And drink to the place
Where the Temperance race
. Full honored guests are made!
And take the cup
And fill it up '
' In the mole: the shaded dell;
And drink to the health
And the grdwing wealth
or those we love so well
Aye! take the cup
And fill it up -
With silvery drops of water,
And drink to the cheer
Of the band so dear
Our every Son and Daughter!
Joy to the place,
And joy to the day,
And joy to one another!
And a blessing fall .
That is best of all
On Sister and on Brother!
The year has rolled its: tireless round,
Dispensing light, dispensing shade !
Unfolding fair and fragrant,_b ds
And bidding fairer hi ‘I' '. ins hide!

The seasons here have wrought their will,
The autumn wrapping all in gold, 1
The winterhringing frost and chill ;'
Then over rock and riverhung ., . v'

Till Summer‘s coronation bade ' ’
The field and wood with rapture ring.
And over us the year has rolled . .

And some have fallen at our side,‘
While we with othersIlinger still,
And gloom has deepened our brow.

And hope has faded .
Or yet abides, serene andrtrue'.

‘ termed ungentlemauly'treatment at his hands
The Rev. E. D. Bentley, late pastor of the
1st I Baptist church, having! made. a public
statement from the pulpit. concerning some
;_'things connected with his ministerial career
I: in Norwalk, and subsequently having pub-
;li'ghed in your columnsa communication pur-
porting to set forth-some “facts"andevents”
connected with his recent dismissal from his
pastorate, it is no more than just that the
parties who have received what they have
should have opportunity to reply to his er-

som‘e‘crookednessin the managementof the
concern about which U. claims} he knew
nothing. This he refused to do, whereupon
the pastor remarked as a reminder that he had
been instrumental in doing M. U. 41 1119881110
of good, now the policy should he changed,
and he would injure him. more than he had
ever done him good. These and other re-
marks stiil linger in Mr. Underhlll‘s ~.ears as
singular remarks coming from a minister.
He also alleges that these threats have
been carried out in a measure; the discipline
affair being one of the various methods
adopted for the purpose of bringing him
into disrepute. ‘
Messrs. Sherwood and Underhiil assert
that'for manymonths they Were made the
subjects of constant remark and were hec-
tored continually by Mr. B. both in public
and private. They were made subjects of
special remark from the pulpit and in mat—
ters of business, until finding they could not
endure being unrelentingly harrassed they
ceased attending the services of the church,
not caring to be stirrers up of strife.
It seems to them that the late proceeding
against them are extremely charscteristic,and
savor largely of a spirit of revenge under
, the tyrannical law of “rule or ruin.” Both
of these gentlemen expressed their entire
willingness to settle existing differences with
their pastor, if he would but make acknowl-
edgement of what he had said and done, but
in every instance, it is stated, he refused so
to do, hence their continued absence from
church worship. But no time have the dis-
puted matters been nearer a settlement than
through the basis just alluded to, reports to
the contrary notwithstanding.
It may be well to remark in passing that
no pastor of a Baptist church can “discipline"
a member, it isnot a pastoral right, that be-
ing vested in the church solely. He can be
the party toprefer the charges, however,and
set the machinery in motion as in the present
instance, yet in event of his removal were
that reasonable grounds for a continuance of
action the ch urch can proceed as well with-
out as with him. A very large number of
the church members are utterly opposed to
the late manner of conducting the discipline
action, and had they thoroughly known he-
forehand the drift and intent cf purpose. the
matter would have been “quashed in the be-
ginning.
Much more might be added concerning
these cases, yet we refrainfrom giving it to
the public car, our object being simply to
show that the inconsistencies have not been
exclusively on the part of the disciplined
members and also to locate. the censure, or
. so much of itas is just, where it really be-
longs. .
The position taken by Mr. J. L. Ambler,
Dr. Comatock, Messrs. Fillow and others, as
alleged by Mr. Bentley, seems to be at vari-
' ance with the facts elicited from these gen-
tlemen in our interview with them.
Mr. Ambler has never “plotted'? against the
in desiring his removal. Had he desired to
be an underminer, and had there been any
secret proceedings or plottingsmo‘st certainly
he would not have invited Deacons Fillow
and, Arlington, friends at the pastor, to be
present at a certain meeting held at his
. house. (to which reference -is;made by.-Mr.:I
Bentley), for ill-so doing he' would have
shown most clearly that he had “lost his
head," which, by the way, seemed to be in
its normal position when your reporter called
on him a few days ago. Possibly the aberra-
tion of mind under which he has labored for
. many months will gradually wear away with
goat least it is hoped so, and Brother Am-
bler-has the sympathy of many others who
are supposed to suffer a like affliction.
The nccasion of G. S. Comstoek, M. D.,
being present at the meeting is easily ex-
plained. He was invited to attend and there
was nothing very singular in his acceptance
for surely Mr. Ambler's house is an exceed-
ingly pleasant one at which to while away
an evening. '
In justice to the Dr.'s position it should be
explained that he has been the butt of many
sarcastic remarks, thrusts and odious com-
pastor, but was outspoken for many months I

talked over priVstely. The principal topic of.
parisons, particularly; so concerning his pew
rent, etc., while if the truth be known he is
no more a delinquent than some others who
- have been lauded as “liberal givers.”
Why not tell the whole truth in this matter
instead of exposing one and shielding anoth-
er, from personal motives. Mr. Ambler had
a perfect right to call this meeting, and a so-
lution of the problem of the church difficul-
ties was solicited yet unobtainable from those
present, save that the majority thought if the
finances could not be largely increased—and
the shaping of matters suggested a contrary
view—the only alternative was to request the
resignation of the pastor. =
’ Accordingly a committee was appointed to
wait on him the following evening for the
purpose of ascertaining in a pleasant, social
manner his opinion of .the situation, and fur-
thermore as a last resort,“ no other solution
to the perplexing problem could be reached
to ask him to quietly tender his resignation.
One of the committee, a deacon of ' the
church, remarked that never "before was be
subjected to such abusive and insulting treats.
ment as when that committee, of which he
was a member, visited the pastor at his resi-
dence on the appointed evening. Passers by
on the‘. street are said. to have had abundant
excuse for stopping to listen to a very loud
and boisterous declamation. which greeted
their .ears,~as it proceeded from out the pas—
toral dwelling.
The occasion of the rude treatment to
which this committee was subjected seems
to have been the result of a report which
had been conveyed to the ears of Mr. Bentley
regarding the meeting held on the previous
evening. Report says that Deacon R. A.
Fillow, who [has served the pastor with “rare
fidelity,” was the informant and upon his
shoulders seem to fall the odium of tale
bearing. .
Members of the committee state that with-
out beiug permitted to make known their
mission they were met by a volley of abusive
language, reprimands and censure, the pas-
tor not knowing whether they were come for
the purpose reported, or whether they were
forerunners of a donation party, or even bet-
y‘et,calling to confer with him with a view
0 increase his salary.
Touching upon the meeting held to con-
'srder_,the pastoral relations (April 3d) it may
:‘fbe'i'lnentioned that Mr. B. correctly states
that two notices were handed him to read.
One from the “opposition," so called, the
other from his friends, and as a matter of
choicehe read the latter, while courtesy de-
manded the reading of the former. “the pris-
tor’s right” being to read proper notices
handed him without consulting his own
preferences. specially was this so in this
instance as a p ior date was named in the for-
mer notice and the paper had attached to 'it
alarger number of signatures than the one
read. This was not the first refusal to read
notices sent to the pulpit.
Our chief concern in this direction is to
call attention to the fact that Mr. Bentley’s
friends appointed the fatal meeting at which
he. received his initial vote of dismission,
they naming date,timc and place of meeting.
The attempt to set aside the vote taken at
that meeting as fraudulent, is too pcrversive
in principle to receive the slightest attention,
for the meeting was presided over by an ex-
tremely careful and clear-headed gentleman.‘
every detail being perfectly agreeable to the
meeting, not a dissenting voice being heard.
A statement has been made that a given num-
ber of voters were present at the meeting,
the number who did not vote has also been
stated as well as those who remained away.
It has since been ascertained that these fig-
ures are the result of guesswork solely, there
being nothing official in the announcement ;
therefore the cry of fraud has little, in fact,
no weight. The age of infallibilty has not
yet been reached and incorrect guessing can
be done by almost anyone. '
Nearly three months elapsed between the
date of the meeting mentioned and the time
of the next action taken by the church, du-
ring which interval the; congregation were
favored with very pointed sermons and se-
B. desired him to swear to; vere criticisms from the pulpit. TheWeekly
meetings were particularly made the place
where scathing rebukes and personalities
were freely administered. Not unfrequently
did members iesve the meetings feeling sorely
woundedby.the.unwarranted attacks made
upon them and their friends.
, The cases of discipline were called up for
final action in‘ the month of J one last. 0w-
ing to some irregularities in the proceedings
objection was made to immediate action by
Secretary Arnold, who appeared as counsel
for Messrs. Sherwood and Underhiil. The
cases were set over at his request until Sep.
tember. .
Deacon R. A. Fillow did not support this
movement in the least, as has been report-
ed, but was bitterly opposed to it as his man-
ner of voting attested. '
His “rare fidelity" did not figure in the
continuance of the cases as disposed of.
From a general review of the situation '
the cases of discipline seem to be the hinge
upon which the expastor has hung all the
burden of his removal, while to a great ex-
tent it can be antedated many months, even
years. The late movement against Mr. B.
which resulted in securing his dismission‘
should not be understood as the first move-
ment against him. About two years ago
feeling ran high regarding the pastoral rela-
tions, not quite a few thinking the pastor
should be retired.
It seemed to be a piling of evidence upon
evidence, fact upon fact, through a long pe-
riod of years, that the Baptist church had
made a mistake in calling Mr. B. to minister
to them. Pleasant reminders were offered
him of the fact from time to time without
result, and cempulsory measures were adopt-
ed only as a last resort.
Many. additional items are in the possession
of i the writer which are withheld for the
present,.it being our intention to make an-
swer simply to things already made public
by. ex-pastor Bentley. ” .

among the congregation and from private
individuals who figure in the controversy.

A Memorable Address.
GENERAL GARFIELD'S Rama’s ox run DEATH

: Providence Press.
While I was in the congressional library
to‘-day, Clarkson N. Potter was calling on
Mr. A. R. Spofiord, the genial librarian. I
turned over the pages of the Congressional
Record of the Forty-fourth [congress to find
for you in detail a scene that has haunted
my-memory ever since the prenident has been
lying wounded, notably on Sunday last,
which was, without exception, the stillest,
sternest day of suspense that Washington
hasihad' regarding him. '
On Friday, 8, 1876, after the regular
business of the day, it is stated in the formal
phraseology of the Record, that Mr. Phelps
(Connecticut) ofiered aresolution that the
' house had received with profomd sorrow the
announcement of the death of Orris S.
Ferry. and the proper tributes be paid for
his public and private virtues. Ordinarily
this would have been the prelude to a very
prosy scene, during which most of
the . red blooded men of the house
would have- sauntered out of sight
and hearing, except the few who had been

held in esteem, and his death had- been one
lators seemed for once profoundly impressed
with the great fact of mortality and lent a
listening ear. The last public act of Sena-
tor Ferry had been to pronounce a eulogy
upon his colleague, Senator Buckingham.
Following close upon his death came that
of Vice President Wilson; and immediately
afterwardsI that of Representative Henry H.
Starkweather, a beloved member from Con-
necticut. These facts conspired to render
the memorial exercises to Senator Ferry an
occasion of vived interest, and. the galleries
listened with moist eyes.
touching tributes, notably one from Profes-
for Seelye of Amherst, a boyhood friend of
the dead senator’s, Mr. Garfield, then in his
prime as an orator, and already wearing the
indefinable aureole that settles round the head
of one set apart” for a higher destiny than his
fellows, rose impressively and said:
“I have never in this house performed a
duty so sad and so sacred as that which is
devolved upon me today. Two weeks ago
last Friday our late beloved friend and asso-
ciate, the Hon. H. II. Starkweather of Con-
necticut came to my seat and urgently re.
quested that I should address the house-on
_the resolutions in reference to the death of
Senator Ferry. After {speaking with me a
few moments be was called to the chair to
preside, and remained there perhaps half an
hour; but not feeling well, he soon passed
out and never entered the hall again.
The very evening when he was stricken
with his mortal disease he had completed, or
very nearly completed, the remarks which
he proposed to offer to the house on this
occasion. I have not had the heart even to
keep my promise to him. I could not think
of this subject {without being overwhelmed
with the sense of the double loss; but I am
sure the house will permit me, in place of
any remarks of 'my own, to do what our
departed friend can no longer do for him-
self, to read this speech as he left it, I have
filled a few blanks and added here and there
a word, to supply the final revision which
his own band would have made, and thus the
dead speaks for the dead friend whom he
so soon follow. I read, and ask that it may
go intDthe Record as his speech, the follow-
ing “Remarks prepared by the late Hon. H.
H. Starkweather."
Then followed a touching and fraternal
tribute, not. necessary to quote in full, but
ending with the following, which seems to
one who knew the style of each, about equal-
ly the work of the author and his eloquent
reviser:
“Before closing, however, let me refer to
the crowning glory of his life. Mr. Ferry
had a strong religious element in his char-
acter. This was with him a great controll-
ing force and not a sentiment. It added
greatly to his strength and upheld him not
only in great emergencies but in the daily
labors of life. He loved to contemplate and
discourse of the infinite God and the glory
of His reign. He dwelt with rapture on the
majestic prophecies of Isaiah and the grand
poems of the Hebrew minstrel king. His
discourses on religion became a part of his
beautiful life-work
"It was most beautiful and grand, amid
failing strength and long years of pain to
hear him discourse in his home.
‘Rest at last, '
Repose complete, eternal,

SCIENTIFIC IIISEELLAEI.
M. Flammarion, the eminent French as.
tronomcr, inclines to the view that comets‘
tails are not material, but perhaps an ex-
citation—electric or other—of other. He also
caicIllaies that the tail of the comet of 1843,
at the distance of the earth from the sun,
must have swept space with a velocity of
40,000 miles per Zsccond, at which rate no
molecule of matter would remain a single
instant dependent on solar attratcion, mov-
ing in a closed orbit around the sun.
Dr. A. Paggi records that in a case which
came under his observation in Paris the
heart had ceased to beat,as an effect of the
inhalation of chloroform and artificial res-
piration fortcn minutes failed to restore the
circulation, when Dr. Labbe by applying a
cloth dipped in hot water to the region of the
hgart caused it to immediately resume its
action.
Bricks that float in water are made of
diatomaceous earth mixed with one-twentieth
part of clay and well burned. The art of
making these floating bricks wasavell known
in thc‘ime of Pliny, but was afterwards lost,
and only recently recovered.
In the account of his African explorations
just published, Major Serpa I’ints refers at
considerable length to the ants encounteerd
in the course of his journeyings. One ter-
2- rihic species is even said by the natives to
attack and kill elephants. The savages flee
from it in great terror. It is not large, but
bites severely, and it swarms in such vast
hordvs as to completely overwhelm any ani-
mal it may meet in the course of its long
marches through the country.
M. Pasteur, whose researches in relation
to infectious diseases are so well known, is
now directing his attention to the subject of
rabies. The virus of that disorder of course
exists in the saliva, but M. Pasteur has now
proved that it does not exist there only.
The brain substance also contains it, and
used to inoculate healthy animals, will re-
produce the disease as effectually as the
saliva. Again, one of the great difficulties ‘
in research on rabies arise from the uncer-
tainty of the evil after inoculation or a bite,
and the long time of incubation. M. Pasteur
f is now able to communicate the disease
surely, and to shorten considerably the time
of incubation. His method is to inoculate
directly the surface of the brain, having
recourse to trepanation, and using as inoc-
ulating matter the cerebral substance of a
mad dog as pure as possible. In that case
the first symptoms of rabies infallibly appear
in a week or two, and death ensues in less
than two weeks. The results of Pasteur’s
further investigations will be awaited with
unusual interest, in hope that they may lead
to the pointing out of some means of allevi-
ating the sufferings of humanity from this
terrible disease, of the nature of which so
little is thusfnr known.
In a number of examinations of the heart
beats of the dying, Bouchat recorded six
seconds as the longest interval between the
pulsations.
Dr. M. 8. Menier believes that the large
quantity'of carbonic acid in the atmosphere
may be traced to this source: The interior
of the earth he eflirms to contain great beds
of carboniferous iron, which coming in con-
tact with water at a great heat, yields by-
drocarbons. These, on their subsequent
combustion, give rise to the carbonic acid
exhaled from the earth into the atmosphere.
1!. Poliakofi, the distinguished Russian
naturalist, has examined a horse presented
by Colonel Prejalsky to the St. Petersburg
Academy, and pronounces it a new species,
in some respects intermediate between our
domestic horse and the wild ass. The newly
recorded animal is a native' of the plains
and deserts of Central Asia, and has not
heretofore fallenunder the dominion of man.
A “fire-damp commission" is to convene in
Berlin for several months to study measures
for the better protection of miners.
At the new popular Observatory of the
Trocadero, the public at large of Paris had
an opportunity of viewing the great comet
of 1881 with the very perfect apparatus of
astronomers. ’ This great advantage was
highly appreciated by the intelligent Parisi-
ans.
A midnlght balloon ascent was lately
mode by MM. Fonvielle and Lippmann.
'They carried with them a small electric
s
_ light apparatus, which enabled them to make
readings of the thermometer. and barometer
and to take down notes.
The Fleuss diving helmit, which, it will
be remembered, enables a diver to take with
him to the bottom of the sea sufiicient
oxygen for breathing several hours, has
proven very successful in the experiments
made with it thus far. Mr. Fleuss has now
devised a lamp upon a similar.principle. It
is made so that all external air is excluded,
the oxygen for the combustion of the spirit
being contained within the lamp in a strong
tank, while the products from the combust-
ion are allowed to escape through a series of
valves opening in water. The lamp has been
successfully tested under water arid as a
safety lamp in the midst of explosive gases.

The Reform Club.
The Reform Club is the title of a new or—
ganization in Daubuly, organizrd by young
lad'cs for the polposc of distal .ging the
use of . “slang phrases” in conversation.
At a rtccnt mccting, while a_ member was
addressing the society, she inadvertently
made use of the expression “awful nice" and
was called to order by a sister member in:
transgressiog the ruler. '
“In what way have I irensgresscd F” asked
the speaker, blushing ('reply.
“You said it would be ‘awful nice’ to ad—
mit gentlemen to our deliberations,” replied ~
the other.
“Well, would n’t it be ‘2" replied the speak-
er. “You know you said yourself no longer
ago than yesterday that— -"
“Yes, I know; but you said ‘awful nice,’
and that is slang.” 9
“Well,” said "on speaker, tattly, “if you
are going to i": so dWIu'ly nice about it, per-
haps it is; but Iwouidn’t say anything if I
were you. Didn’t you tell Sallie Spriggins
this morning to ‘pull down'ber basque’ ?"
"No, I didn’t.” rctorted the other, her face
growing crimson ; “and Sallie Spriggins will
say I didn’t. She wont go back on me.
“This is a nice racket you are giving us,"
cried the president, after rapping Iboth
speakers to order. “Let me ask what is the
object of this society?”
‘-To discourage slang i” cried a dozen
voices. . ‘
‘ ‘Corrcct,” said the president, “now go on
with the funeral.”
A member cross to explain that she had
been fined at the last meeting for saying
“awful nice” herself, but she hadn’t the
stamps to pay it now—would settle it, how—
ever in the sweet by~and-by.
“That’ll be all right,” said the president;
“pay when you have the ducats.”
Another member asked if a young lady
could say “old splendid” without subjecting
herself to a fine.
“I should snicker,” said the president, who
was the founder of the societypand therefore
appealed to when any question was to be de-
cidcd.
“Then,” said the speaker, “I move that
Miranda Pew come down with the (lust for
I heard her say that her beau was just ‘old
splendid l’ ”
“Well, if mine was such a hairpin as yours
is, I would not say it 1”
“Shoot the cbiuning i” said the president ;
“will you nchr tumble ?"
But the confusion was-too great to be ul-
laycd.’ Miranda's blood was up; some sided
with her, and others against, and amid the
babel that followed could be heard such ex-
clamations as “Dry up I!" “Nice hueklebcrry
you are l" “Wipe off your chin l” “Hire a
hall 1" etc., when a motion to adjourn was
carried by a large majority.
