There comes a time to "every life.
When, heart-sick, Weary of the strife
And toil of living,
We fain would lay us down to rest,
And feel that we indeed are blest,
fiends folded o'er the troubled breast.
And God forgiving
Our sins and errors of this life
Which we are living.
But life is not all dull and gray,
For after midnight crimes the ray
. Of early morning;
And after darkest nights of pain
Our eyes behold the day again,
As rainbows follow after rain,
The sky adorning
With hues which chase away the gray
I Of early morning.
And know our Father sends the light,
And, too, he also sends the night,
His wisdom proving; .
For darkness makes the day come fair,
The fiercest lightning clears the air :
And, we, when thinking of this, dare
No doubt his loving;
that he sends both day and night—
. His wisdom proving." '

Perhaps it will be an item of interest to
“me readers 'of the Gamma who reside in
Redding, Weston and Danbury to learn that
the'once notorious Platt Treadwell is a mis-
erable tramp, roaming through the northern
part of Ohio and southern Michigan. ,He is
- a Bible monomaniac, perfectly harmless, and
speaks with much pride of the fact that
three states in the Union have decided that
Platt is insane, and sent him to their asy-
lums. He has lots of friends with .whom
he stays for a time, until they get tlrcd of
him, and then give him a 'little money and
send him on, to find some one else, who
don't want him long. D.

The approach of the oyster season, now
within about two weeks of us, leads the
lovers of that bivalve to take interest in
whatever pertains to its welfare, and there-
fore we print the following from the New
York Evening Post as likely to be of moment
to many of our readers: , .
Large oysters will, however, probably be
scarce this year, as the heavy demand to
supply the European trade, which is yearly
increasing.has depleted the beds and had
the natural effect of clearing out the stock.
The oysters most in'demand for this trade
are knoyvn as “Colleatincs,” and are about
tile'size'of a trade dollar. Thelarge number
of oysters of this size taken' from the
beds has prevented the bivalves frommatur-
ing and the déVclopinent of new stock. It is
probably, however, that there will be plenty
_of oysters to satisfy all demands, and that
prices will be somewhat lower than last sea-
son for good stock. ,

The Supreme court of California has
granted a new trial in the case of a man cou-
vicied of murder in the second degree, on
the ground that the jury drank so much beer,
etc, during the trial as to unfit .them for
proper and serious deliberation of the evi-
dence. The trial lasted eight 'days, and it
was shown that during that time four five-
gallon kegs of beer. five gallons of wine. t'en
bottles cf claret and considerable whiskey
were purchasedby the jury at their own ex-
pensc and consumed by them without the
knowledge of the court.
The laundry ordinance of San Francisco,
which Judge Sawyer, of the United States
Circuit court, has declared unconstitutional,
prevented any person from running a laundry
within certain limits of the city.unless twelve
citizens and taxpayers signed a petition in
his favor, and a written consent were ob-
tained from the hoard'of supervisors. The
Chinese laundrymen combined to test the
ordidance and won a decided victory, and a
large number of Chinaman ‘who were under
bail for violating the ordinance have been
released.

Ex Congressman J. M. Leach. of North
Carolina, publishes an open letter publicly:
withdrawing from the Democratic party. In
this he says: ”I shall cease to not longer
with the Democratic party or give the public
influence of my name in :further promotion
Of its success; and I' may add that there are
many thousands of true and patriotic men
who, in my opinion—and I speak not with-
out knowledge of what I say—will be in-
fluenced’by the-same2 reasons that impel my
action." Mitheach has heretofore been one
of the most active» stump orators in North
Carolina. » . ,
The submarine vessel now being-construc-
ted at Bucharest, it: is claimed, will accom-
plish what no other s‘ubmarine craft except
that run by of one Jules Verne’s‘heroes has
ever been equal to. The plan contemplates
'a vessel capable Of' moving under water for
twelveth without any (renewal .of air.
Steam is the motor employed; and the speed
reckoned upon is greater than that attained
by sailing vessels, Practically the manage-
ment consists in simply sinking the vessel
by opening certain valves, but its return to
the surface involves more complex opera-
tions. An clectriclight-jwhich is robe sup-
plied, will, it is ascertained render objects
fairly distinguishable. . FOr Irenewcl of air it
is not necessary that the vessel rise to the
surface—the means resorted to for this pur-
pose being an apparatus that can be sent up
and which, by working a pump, forces air
into suitable receivers. _> _ - ‘
Lieutenant Giraudthss left Marseillesfor
Zanzibar as leader of an African expedition.
After organizing at Zanzibar he intends to go
to Lake Bangwcloo, which he proposes to
circumnavigate by means of an English built
boat that he takes out with him in sections.
It was on the south shore of this lake that
Livingstone died, and the new expedition in-
tends to take up the work of exploration
here where he left it. Giraud hopes thatch
reaching the Lilaiabaflongo to be able to de-
scend'il, to the west coast in canoes. Al-
though he has a mission from the French
Minister of Puelic Instruction, he himself
bears all the expense.

The Watermelon.
The watermelon contains about ninety five
per cent. of the purest water, and a trace of
the purest sugar, shd nothing yet has been
discovered that furnishes so perfect and
speedy a “cure" for summer complaint as
watermelon, and nothing else. Even when
diarrhoea has been kept up by continued
eating of ordinary food, until the disease has
become chronic, this delicious beverage—for
it is little more—watermelon, taken freely
two or three times a day, has again and again
been known to work wonders. and to “care"
when all the usual remedies have failed.—

Jack Lincoln, son of Secretary Lincoln, is
a very bright and interesting little fellow,and
affords a considerable amount of entertain-
ment to the clerks and visitors to his. father’s
office. The other day he was amusing him-

and, pausing, looked up from his work and
with great naivete remarked. “Why, ever so

Worklng a Hose Pipe.
Yesterday afternoon a tall. lank individ-
ual, dressed in a faded suit of brown jeans,
his pantaloons tucked into a'pair' of remark-
ably large and dusty boots, and wearing a
broad brimmed straw hat, much the worse
for wear, was sitting on one of the beaches
at Garfield Place, curiously watching the
park keeper watering the grass. The opera~
tion seemed to impress him considerably,
and he looked as if he wanted to speak to
the man with the hose. He made one or
two ineffectual efforts, but each time sat
down upon the bench without having opened
his month. At length, conquering his natu;
ral dli’fidence, he arose and thus addressed
the keeper: .
“Say, Stranger, I‘m from Injiany. and I'd
.like mighty well to see how that tluir thing
_ is worked."
The man with the hose courteously ex-
plained the operation, toldail about the wa-
_-ter works, and finally Offered to let the
‘Hoosicr try his hand at watering the grass,
if he wished.
With a smile of innocent and child like
gratificationthe man from “Injiany” firmly
grasped the hose, as if he feared it Would
‘get away from him, and began. For a mo-
ment the stream want on the grass, then by
way of variety he squirted it over the gravel
walk. _, _
“Stop that, right off,” shouted the keeper.
“In his effort to do as he was bid, the
Hoosier planted one of his pondrous boots
upon the hose, and the water ceased to spurt
from‘the nozzle. "
“Why, it hez stopped; what is the matter
with the plaguey thing i” he asked in a tone
bf surprise.
Just then, looking straight into the nozzle,
he changed his position the bettcr to study
the situation, and the stream gushed forth
into his face.
“Ugh, upb,” he gasped. half choked,
swinging the hose around in a helpless man-
ner, sprinkling a crowd of bystanders,and at
last leveling'it square in the breast of the
custodian of the park.
“810p that, you idiot," yelled the keeper,
“or I’ll murder you," and as the stream of
water, instead of being removed, was di-
rected now intohis face, he grappled with
the unfortunate countryinan, and with the
hose grasped between them they rolled over
and over on the wet grass. biting and scratch-
ing like a couple of cats. The Indiana inan
came out on top, and while he proceeded to
pummel'his antagonist, he allowed the hose
to ;squirt out in the direction of- the side-
walk, where‘the stream fell upon two of the
finest summer bonnets of the season, and
drenched a couple of lovely stiff starched
White dresses. Just at this juncture half a
dozen policemen and a patrol wagon arrived.
With much difliculty. and not until they
were thoroughly sprinkled, the ofiicers man-
aged to pull the Hoosier away and convey
him to the .Central, where .the charge of wil-
tul destruction of property, the same prop-
erty consisting of two summer bonnets and
dcouple of dresses, was placed against his
name. If his clothes are anything like dry
to morrow morning his case will be tried in
the police court.—Cr'1winnat£ Gazette. ’

‘ The lateSt freak of that eccentric monarch
Ludwig of Bavaria, was manifested in his
attendance at the performance of “Parallel"
at Bayreuth. It was officially announced
that he would leave Castle Berg on J nly. 26,
at 2 in the afternoon. , Instead. however, he
stole away, to avoid the much-hated public
demonstration on :July 25, at half past 3 in
the morning! Travelling by special train,
he did not go direct to Bayreuth. but stopped
in an open field. some distance from the town
and alighted at the little cabin of a track-
walker, from which, hastily and all unnoticed
by the public. be made his way to his lodge
fitly termed “The Hermitage."

A striking bit of history -is told by the in-
scription on ,the marble tablet erected the
other day in a room of a house in Vellctri,
Italy by the authorities of that notable little
city: "In this chamber," in reads, “Ferdi-
nand II, of Bourbon, on the night of XVII.
May, MDCCCXDIX, in face of a few regi-
ments of volunteers, in vain sought to sleep
in the midst. of an army. Here reposed
victorious, on the following night, Giuseppe
Garibaldi. Pius IX., returning from Portici
to-Rome, here dreamt of grandeur and sta-
bility of governments among foreign swords.
Here returned in MDCCCLXXV,, and here,
the country face and secure, slept Giuseppe
Garibaldi. And here no one will ever sleep

Sunday School Among the
leoclaws.
On the night of the terrible cyclone which
partly destroyed the mining town of Me
:Alister, killing twelve persons and wounding
many more, a missionary of-the American
Sunday School Union in the Indian Territory
was camping out, with the interpreter, in
the woods, but they were preserved. Large
trees were uprooted or broken 011' so that
they pursued their missionary journey and
held their meetings with much difi‘iculty.
Seven new schools were organized during
the month, and§fifty-twotestaments in Choc-
taw and fifty-six English were placed among
them. besides thirty-eight bibles.and other
supplies, amounting to $40. '
’ The Indian women attend the meetings,
:wearing gay handkerchiefs for headgear.
and the men wear feathers in their hats.
Bible readings, prayers and hymhs, are in
Choctaw and English alternately. These
people are orderly and attentive. and train
their'children to be. They compel obed-
ience. What a pity that their family govern-
ment ideas are not adopted by some of their
pale-face neighbors l—Ezchangs.
It was a story of increasing usefulness
find far-reaching activities which was told
by the various speakers, and by the reports
presented at the fifty-eight anniversary of
the American Sunday-School Union recently
held in Pittsburg, Penn. The Rev.‘ W. P.
Paxson had a touching tale' to tell of exper-
iences in the remote districts of the West;
the Rev. Drs. John C. White and Samuel J.
Wilson had each words of cheer for the
workers; and more encouraging than all was
the report for the year just ended, of work
already accomplished. That report showed
an advance in the publication work Of the
Union, and an amount .of missionary work
actually done which has been‘ surpassed only
twice ;before in the history of the society.
And while the opening up of the country by
railroads, and the quick development which
is going on in all sections, increase the re-
sponsibilities of the society, these conditions
increase also its facilities for the work, so
that the immediate prospect in regard to the
hociety’s work is unusually good—Sunday

-of Messrs. Ingcrsoll, Waller, Eaton. Seymour

didates for the nomination of Governor.
The committee seemed to be divided. The
‘lastest report is that ex-Lieutenaui-Governor
Loomis, of New London, wants'the nomina-
vtion.
Colonel Loomis’s friends believe, and not
altogether.without reason, that had Mr. Wal-
ler stood by him he, would have received the
nomination for governor at the time when it.
was given to Richard D. Hubbard. Enter-
taining that belief, they are not inclined to
look with favor upon Mr. Waller‘s nomina—
tion, but say that if the candidate is to be
- taken from New London county, the choice

One of the curious industries of the coun-
try has its principal homes at New-Berne.
N. C. This is the manufacture of wooden
platters, plates and trays. The timber used
for this purpose is supplied by the neighbor-
ing swamps. A huge log is rounded by a
circular plane and then put into a machine
which, with great accuracy and swiftncss,
cuts of thin strips of the wood. When
these strips have been cut into square pieces
and thoroughly dried, they are made pliable
by steam. In that condition they are mould.
ed in the shapes desired. The factory is
now making 100,000 plates a day, according
to a report, which it is hard to believe.

to pay a call to some one up stairs. After
placing his umbrella where it might drain,
he wrote upon a piece of paper and pinned
tfo it the sentence: “N. B. This umbrella
belongs to a man who strikes a 250-pound

A weltknown Philadelphia beauty has
been the heroine of an incident at Newport
that has furnished something to talk about.
It has already been related in letters how the
Philadelphia lady met a young New Yorker
on the cliff. When they were a few paces
apart the New Yorker, although he had no
acquaintance with the lady, addressed her
and she not knowing who was speaking,
turned her parasol aside. The New Yorker
then made a remark of so extraordina'ry a'
character that fora moment she said nothing.
Then, recovering from her surprise. she
closed her parasol and struck the New York-
er two or three vigorous blows, whereupon
he retired in distress. ,

Practical jokers are so seldom punished for
their detestable tricks that there is much sat-
isfaction in laughing at the discomfiture of a
Troy merchant who thought tO make his
neighbor. mad. The other night he removed
a fruit-stand from its own place to the side-
walk in front of a shoemaker’s shop and then
went chuckling home to bed. But his little
operation had been watched, and in the mid-
dle of the night he was aroused from pleasant
dreams of his own astuteness by a policeman,
who ordered him to carry the fruit-stand
back to the place where ithelonged, on pen-
alty of Immediate arrest.

Tell Me I Hate the, Bowl.
A young lady of New York was in the
habit of writing to the Philadelphia Ledger
on the subject of Temperance. Her writings
were so full of pathos, and evinced such
deep emotion of soul, that a friend accused
"’her of being a maniac on the subject of
Temperance, whereupon she wrote the fol-
lowing lines :
2G0 feel what I have felt; .
Go bear what I have borne;
Sink ’neath the blow a father dealt,
And the cold world's proud scor g;
Then suffer on from year to year,
The sole relief the scorching tour.
Go kneel as I have knelt,
Implore, beseech and pray ;
Strive the besotied heart to limit,
The downward course to stay ;
Be dashed with bitter curse :is-idc.
Your prayers burlesqued, your tears defied,
Go weep as I have wopl. ._
O’er n lov'd father's fall;
See every promised blessing swept,
Youth‘s sweetness turned to gull,
Life’s fading flowers strcwing all the way
That brought me up to woman‘s day.
Go see what I have seen:
Behold the strong man bowed, ,
With gnashing teeth, lips bathed in blood,
And cold and livid brow ;
Go catch his withered glance, and sec
There mirrored his soul’s misery.
Go to thy mother’s side,
And her crushed bosom cheer;
Thine ownvdeep anguish hide ,
Wipe from her checks the bitter tear; -
Mark her worn frame and withered brow,
The gray that streaks her dark, fair brow,
With fading frame and trembling limb,
And traced the ruin back to him
Whose plighted faith in early youth
Promised eternal love and truth,
But who, forsworn, hath yielded up
That promise to the cursed dup,
And led her down through love and light,
And all that made her prospect bright,
Andchained her there,’midwant and strife—
That lowly thing, a drunkard‘s wife ;
And stamped on childhoodfs brow so mild
That withering blight, a drunkard‘s child.
Go hear, and feel, and see, and know,
All that my soul hath felt and knows;
Then look upon the ’wine-eup’s glow—
See if it’s beauty can atone,
Think if its flavor you will try
When all proclaim “'I‘is drink and die.”
Tell me I hate the bowl?
Hate is a feeble word :
I loathe—abhor—nmy nary soul ‘
With strong disgust is stirred
\Vhen'er I see, or hear, or tell
0f the dark beverage of hell!

“License and Rum Bill.
Public attention has recently been invited
by the New York Herald to a case of much
interest in its relations to the liquor traffic
in a Westchester County 0 ourt. It appears
that the Overseers of the Poor of the town
of Portchester undertook to compel an Old
man of cightytwo by legal process to pro-
vide for a drunken, worthless son of thirty.
The old man claimed, and the claim was
not disproved in the court. that his income
was not sufficient to maintain the’ family
dependent upon him, among whom were a
blind son and a daughter subject to fits.
With broken utterances he tried to tell how
much he had done for the drunken son
whose maintenance the town was trying to
avoid. All present were much affected,
and the presiding judge, greatly to his
credit, declined to grant the order. saying:
“The town has licensed the establishments
where this old man’s son buys liis'rum, so
the town must take care of the drunkard.
I cannot order a man of eighty-two to pre-
vide fora son who, were it not for rum,
could and should now be caring- for his
father." It is but partial restitution and
justice that towns which license the liquor-
trafiic should thus be compelled to provide
for its victims—National. Temperance Ad-
vacate.

Temperance Notes.
Temperance workers in England appointed
a day of fasting and prayer that the Iowa
amendment might be carried.
In the narrative of the “State of Religion"
in the Southern Presbyterian Church, which
was adopted by the General Assembly, it is
stated .that "within strictly Presbyterian
communities the evil of intemperance is
steadily decreasing."
The “Blue Ribbon Army" has made
progress in Wales. In Swansea alone, it. is
said, over 27,000 took the Gospel Temper-
ance Pledge, and the brewers find their re-
ceipts are greatly diminished, the falling of!
.Of one in that county being $4,500 in a
week. '
The Seventh Annual Convention of the
National Christian Temperance Union will be
held in Denver, Col, Oct. 26, 27 and 28, 1882.
A large attendance is expected, and many of
the ablest temperance speakers of the land
will address the people. .
- Miss Louise M. Alcott reports of the
Woman‘s Christian Temperance .Union of
Concord, Mass, that its monthly meetings
are to be continued all Summer, that tem-
perance text books have been bought, and
given to all the schools, and that the‘ Union
has already 400 members.
The Prohibition State Convention_ of
Michigan. last month declared in favor of
a constitutional amendment, and nominated
a State prohibition ticket, with D. P. Sa-
gendorf for Governor, and a full list of can«
didates for State officers. Resolutions
were adopted favoring a prohibition party,
constitutional amendment, woman suffrage,
etc.

The honorable title of D D. has been
worthilybestowed on the Rev. B. W. Chid-
law. the widely-known Welsh missionary of
the American Sunday-school Union. If
faithful teaching of the divine word entities
to it, few have so well deserved it. He
reports: “The retrospect of forty-five years
spent in the missionary service of the
American Sunday School Union is suggestive
and the occasion of thanksgiving to God for
guidanpe, support and comfort in all my
labors. I have survived all my early asso:
ciates in service, and the officers of the
society ; and witnessed the steady growth of
the work into the departments, Publication
and Missionary, until, with devout gratitude
I can joyously exclaim: ‘What hath God
wrought 1’ During the last year I have
preached 110 sermdns, made 145 Sunday
school addresses, have written 297letters,
and have travelled 14,500 miles.” Long may
the bow of the veteran abide in strength
for service of Christ and the children!—

A Chinaman Fooled.
John Chinaman sometimes overrcaches
himself with tricks that are vain, or is over-
reached by American hoodlums in ways that
are dark. One of him lately advertised in
Philadelphia that he would “pay $10 for the
arrest of any fellow that throws dead cats or
dogs into the laundry.” Two hoodlums dis-
covered that the fine for thus throwing was
only $3 and costs. Accordingly. one of them
perpetrated the assault and the other procur-
ed his arrest. John paid over the $10 to the
latter and he paid his confederates fine. The
pair then divided the remaining $6, and
John departed with the remark, “Melican
man no foolo me some mores; Mellcan man
kespe he dlamn clatee."
M...”—
John Saunders went from Kentucky to
the west forty years ago, swearing that his
betrothed, whom he left behind, should not
see him until he was a millionaire. Last
week be balanced his books in Montana, and,
finding himself worth amillion of dollars, he
set out for Kentucky, where the twain were
made one. The groom was 68 and the bride
64 years of age.‘

The famous American Opticians, Alvan
Clarkdt Sons, of Cambridge, Mun, have
nearly completed the lens for the great
telescope ordered by the Russian Govern-
ment, the grinding of the glass having now
been in progress for a year. The telescope
will be forty-five feet long, and the object
glass is thirty inches in diameter. Equipped
with this instrument,the emninet astronomer
at Pulkova can view the heavens through
the greatest refracting telescope in existence.
This glory will probably be short-lived, how-
ever. as the trustees of James Licks estate
in California will doubtless succeed in carry-
ing out the great philanthropists instructions.

in power—that is, they will succeed so far.

Prof Tromholt, a Norwegian, investigator
has been studying the aurora borealis, and
has obtained records from fifty telegraphic
stations of Norway and Sweden which show
that scarcely a day passes without some
disturbance on the lines due to terrestrial
magnetism. He is urging the establishing
of an institution in Norway specially fitted
up for observing anrorae and other phenom-
ena of the north currents.
A new thermometer, devised by M.
Michelson, has proven so sensitive in its ex-

The heaviest rainfall is stated by Prof.
Loomis to be found in the run-belt which
surrounds nmrly the whole globe lying
between the northeast and southeast trade
winds. From records collected at rainfall
at sea. Mr. W. J. Black has estimated the
rates per shown for this belt. The fall for
the Atlantic Ocean is calculated at 133.37
inchosa year; for the Indian Ocean, 80,55
mouse a year : and for the Austral-Chinese
seas, 107.96 inches a year. No calculation
has been made for the Pacific, on account of
lack of records from that ocean.

In a paper on the longevity of‘ Romans in
North Africa, read at a recent meeting of the
London Anthropological Society by Lord
Talbot dc Malahide, several instances were
given of inscriptions on tombs of persons
whose age had exceeded 100 years—in some
cases an age of 120, 130, and even 140 years
having been reached.
Herr Gruber has been studying the sense
of hearing in insects. He finds cockroaches
beetles and certain aquatic insects to be very
sensitive to sounds, while grabs, ants and
various water larvae appear to be unaffected.
The response made by the insects affected by
sound, Herr Gruber considers an indication
of true hearing.
Mr. J. G. Jackson, of Hockesrin, Del.,
- has observed what he believes to have been

able to see the appearance only on the

thinks this-mist is formed at a particular
point during every lunar night, and is dis-
pelled soon after the sun rises on the part of
the moon’s surface.

How tk work goes on in some of the
destitute district of Texas, is told in a recent
letter of a missionary of the American Sun-
day School Union working there: “At one
place, where I raised thirty dollars for books
etc., many of the young people could not
read. Iorganized a school here with the
help of a Baptist minister. A Methodist
minifier aided me at the next place. At
another. a man. said to be an infidel, came
through the rain to meeting, brought by his
children, and gave more to start the school
than any other one. Near the San Marcos
River, the missionary was told, ‘You can't
organize a Sunday-school here unless you
import a superintendent.’ Another said,
1 ve been a bad ’un, but we ought to have a
Sunday-school, and I'll help.” Through
great difficulties the missionary .perscvered

there, but now the people desire to mniiltsin
