Dun Brute-sou :—
You ask for our notes of travel, and there
is no use in trying to shake you off.
After two hours delay at Norwalk Bridge.
caused by one of the not infrequent accidents
on the New Haven Railroad, we reached
Bethel, only to wait another hour for the
mail; and as we believe, a satchel was there
icioniously opened inthe baggage car. The
ride up the picturesque Shepaug would have
been more full of pleasure had the river been
. more full of water.
Two days were quietly but happily spent
with some neighbors and other pleasant peo
pic at the excellent Loomarwick House on
the lonely Lake Waramaug, bearing the name
it is said of an Indian chief, a delightful lake
in the shape of the letter=S, some five miles
long and one mile wide, 1200 feet above tide
water, encircled by hills, one of which rises
800 feet above it. There are seven or eight
boarding houses. The Loomarwick derives
its name from the names of its originators,
Loo-mis, Horosh and Boat-«sick, all of Bridge-
port. Suffer an episode which is to the
credit of one of our Norwalk young gentle-
man. Recently he was sitting on the piazza
of one of the hotels, enjoyingkhis cr'gar( Wor-
cester) after all the others had retired for the
night. when he heard a cry for help from the
lake. Hastlly rousing the sleepers he rushed
. down into a boat and soon had the happiness
of rescuing from the water a young lady who
was clinging to a boat which had been cap-
sized by one of the sudden squalls which
sometimes fall on the lake. Her sister and
their gentleman-friend were saved by the
others. We have not heard whether the
usual sequel is likely to follow this rescue of
the fair by the brave. Perhaps neither might
do better. We commend Wsramaug and
Loomsrwick. .
Going hence by stage over a nightly road
to attractive New Milford, and enjoying. as
one always may, the charming Housatonio
valley, we reached Plttsfieid in time to take
an accommodation stage for Willismstown by
a laminating drive via Lanesboro and along
Lake Pontoosuc and the Hoosic, and found
excellent entertainment at the Mansion House
at the head of that justly celebrated Williams-
town Avenue, (street is too strait). Here we
had a memorable Sabbath—“sweet day of
rest"—so restful and so elevating,among these
lofty hills of Massachusetts with those of
Vermont near by and of New York further
011, all in view from:the broad piazzaand all
combining to rest and raise the soul. And- not
less auxiliary was the pure, sweet air and
sunlight, the hallowed stillness of this hill-
throned New England queen village, and a
visit to the marble monument surmounted by
a globe and bearing an image of the famous
“haystsck,” and an inscription of the names
of Samuel J. Mills and his four student com-
poers, who, on this spot, used to meet and
pray for a “world lying in wickedness,"
and thus, in 1805, laid the foundation of the
American Foreign Missionary enterprise.
These grcunds are now beautifully laid out
as "Mission Park," in the rear of the home
of ex.president Hopkins and quite near to
Williams College, which has ever since that
hay-stack meeting been a principal contribu-
tor of men to the grand work here so feebly
(yet powerfully) begun. God bless this col-
lege and maintain this truly apostolical sues
session of missionaries! We cannot forget
our worship with that ancient church in their
worthy sanctuary and that truly evangelical
and cloufittt'np discourse of the accomplished
pastor, long may heprmhl One of the choice
things of our visit was our union with the
students in their daily evening prayers, con-
ducted by President Carter, in their solid and
pleasing chapel in which are memorial win-
dows to two professors and to President Gar-
field and founders of the college. We were
most favorably impressed with all we sgw of
Williams College, and its new president, and
of its gentlemanly students, of whom some
thirty ate dinner with us at the' Mansion
House, who bore themselves most becoming-
1y. Yale could much better have spared
some other of its professors In giving to Wil-
liams a president, but her loss wasgain. We
believe that under his administration Wil-
liams will continue to stand in thcfrcnt rank
of Christian colleges; and we know of none
to which we would more confidently commit
a son, with the assurance of his being well
instructed and guarded from temptation and
stimulated to lofty aims. We were told
there is not a saloon or other pest-house in
Williamstown; and what other traditions,
memories, and surroundings can be more _in-
spiring,what atmospherezmore pure than that
of these hills of Zion r We were often think-
ing “As the mountains are round about J eru-
salem," &c., and we bade adieu to beautiful
Williamstown with regret. The halfltad not

Oar return was by rail through North

oopt the factories and church-spires,.which'

to its position: "beautiful (or situationflend

‘ hospitality of. Governor Briggs, who were no

D. D., of rugged features and character; and
here have dwelt others whose reputation ex-
tends beyond those Berkshire hills far abroad.
Hence we went to Stockbridge and found
hots comfortable a home iszin its quiet but fa-

In'Stockbridgc the points of attraction are
the notice of Jonathan Edwards and the
Sedgwicks,'and birthplace of President Hop-
kihhlho Indian burying-ground and its so
appropriate monumental shaft, of rude stones
and inscription. which called forth the ad-
miniiauof Dean Stanley; and the neighbor-
ingoemetery, monument to Edwards, Cam-
panileptower with its chime of bells whose
ducal-tones resound at sunset among hills
and dales; its public library, and its many
pleasant habitations, all girt by the mountain
slapes and ridges looking down on the valley
of tho-Housatonic; while on the smooth hill
sides that over look the plain are the envia-
ble summer retreats of David Dudley Field
and his brother Henry M, D. D,, the genial
and'weil' known editor of the New York
Mugshot, as well as traveler, writer and
and lecturer, of Ivison the publisher, of two
professors in- Columbia College, and others.
From , Stockbrldge we had a charming
drive through Lenox, whose lofty and green
hills are adorned with the tasteful summer
residences of man and women of wealth and
’3‘ culture from the cities, and afford entrancing
’ visions of the Berkshire Hills, including dis.
' tant Graylock, monarch of the northern
realm, as Monument mountain is of the
southern; and then from the Woolsey Place,
in the lofty pine forest, we returned by a
different road on the eastern side of the cir.
cular lake called “The Bowl.” Who can
forget that drive? And how many such are
there to Lee, Great Barrington, and other
' towns and villages in all that fairy land! No
wonder that Berkshire people are proudpffit.
Thence we retraced our way to Pittsfield,
.and thence came homeward by the Boston
at Albany railroad, scaling the heights and
penetrating “the on " of Dalton and Hins.

m
Picking Apples.
Tne proper picking and packing of apples
isof great importance. The best keeping
sorts will not be preserved well unless .the
fruit is uninjured in gathering, and packed
securely. The most approved method of
picking is by hand. with ladders, the fruit
being put into a grain sack. The bottom and
top of the sack are brought together and tied
and then hung upon the shoulder. A short
stick may be used to keep the mouth of the
sack open. The sack is quickly and easily
emptied by lowering the mouth end and
lifting upon the bottom. The sack can be
lowered into the barrel and the apples will
run out withouttbeing bruised as when they
are poured in from a basket from the top.
Many apple growers prefer to put the fruit
in heaps for a few days that the skin may
toughen before barreling. In short the aim
in picking should be to not bruise the fruit,
and in this way enhance its keeping quality.
The fruit should not move about in barrels
during shipment, and to this end the apples
must be shaken down when the barrel is half
full and again when full, after which the
head-is put on and pressed into place with
considerable force. It is much better to
have the upper apples somewhat flattened
thanito leave thezfruit so it will stir in the
package. The opposite head should be
marked as the one to be opened. The mis-
take is sometimes made of not sorting the
fruit. Make at least two qualities or grades
and mark each package with its grade. This
will secure uniformity in the fruit in each
barrel, and chatter price. There is much to
be gained in the way of a reputation for
careful picking, honest asserting and the
proper packing of all kinds of train—Amer-

Blanching Celery.
We last month described the manner of
bringing the leaves of the celery into an
upright position, or “handling," as the
gardeners term it. The stalks are still green
and not fit for use until they have been whi-
tened or "blanched.” This is done by the
complete exclusion of light, which is usually
effected by a banking up of earth. Any
other method that will completely shut out
the light will answer. The banking up is
done with a' spade, one person on a side, tak-,
ing the soil from between the rows and
forming a steep bank against the plants, cov-
ering all except a few inches of the longest
leaves; this bank is 10 or 12 inches wide at
the bottom, and should be compact and
smooth. In three or four weeks after bank-
ing the'celery may ' be used. Only that
which is needed early requires to be banked;
the stock for winter use is blanched in
trenches, or in boxes, and needs only the
handling to bring the plants into the proper
shape. A trench is dug in a dry place, 10
inches wide, and deep enough to contain the
whole plant, so that the top will be level
with the surface. The celery is then placed
in the trench, packing it as closely as possi-
ble, in an erect position. When cold weath-
er comes that which is not injured by a mod-
erate frost must be covered with straw or
leaves, the thickness of which must be in-
creased as the weather becomes colder. For .
.family use, celery is often stored in boxes
in the cellar, but the cellar must be
cool. Boxes are made nine or ten inches
wide, of any convenient length. and ofa
hight a little less than that of the plants; the
bottom is covered with an inch or two of
sand or soil, and the celery placed in it as in

The Saratoga and Mt. McGregor
Railway.
Saratoga’s chief mountain resort has, dur-
ing the greater portion of the past season
been easily and safely reached by this new
means of ascent. The McGregor road is
truly a triumph of engineering skill in that
the objective point, one thousand feet above
the depot at Saratogu, has been successfully
reached, ascending two hundred and fifty
feet per mile with a practical and safe grade
and without statiOnary engines, making the
delightful ride of about forty minutes only,
while the magnificent scenery of the moun-
tain with its boundless landscapes so absorb
the midst of exclamations of wonder and de-
light.
Once upon this grand mountain peak one
of the finest landscapes in the country in-
vites your inspection. Far away to the north
are the important towns of Glens Falls, Fort
Edward and Sandy Hill, with the Green
Mountains of Vermont and the hills of
New Hampshire in the background; stretch-
ing miles away to the south the view em-
braces the theater of one of the most impor-
tant battles of the Revolutionary war, called
" one of the fifteen decisive battles of the
world,” while the Catskills and the far-famed
Adirondacs complete a panorama which no
pen can adequately portray.
The McGregor Company already control
over one thousand acres and contemplate the
erection during the fall and winter of a most
cnpacious hotel, to cost about one hundred
and twenty-five thousand dollars, with cot-
tages and camping implements for the ac-
commodation of many hundred guests.
While many thousands have already avail-
ed :themselves of the privilege the new rail-
road has furnished, it is confidently believed
that the future attractions of Mt. McGregor
will make its ascent by means of this well-
built and thoroughly equipped road an es-
sential feature of next season's sojourn at Sa-
ratogu.

Dr. Cuyler in one of his admirable article
to the Evangelist, says: True conversion
means a new departure. It is known by its
fruits. A father told me that be detected
the conversion of his ,son by his difl’erent
treatment of his mother and himself on the
Monday morning. The Sabbath sermon had
brought the youth to Christ and without
saying anything about it he began to do
kind acts, that he had never thought of be-
fore. Converting grace can no more conceal
itself than a burning lamp or a blazing fire.
When A. begins to use his misspent Sun-
dav= afternoons helping a mission school,
when B. clears the decanters and cards off
his table, when D. stops his Sunday morn-
ing paper and says, wife, isn't it time to be-
gin to have family prayers, when D. hunts
up his old creditors and pays them off with
interest, we discover the good evidence that
the grace of God is at work.

not to include any that use soda or salcratus

one depend habitually upon artificial sweet-
ening, as sugar or molasses. These are only
makeshifts. For sweet yeast-bread, sweet
lively yeast is necessary. Fresh home-made
yeast is probably the very best. The labor
of making this is small, compared with the
bother of watching it, and renewing it in
time. Yeast-cakes from the factories seem

seriously impairing the flavor of the bread.
If good, they are very convenient. In set-
ting the sponge over night, there is less dan-
ger of soaring in hot weather, if the flour is
scalded with boiling water for the sponge.
This may be less in quantity than is needed
for the bread, and in the morning more warm
water may be added, and the whole either
stirred thickly and very thoroughly with
flour (warmed in winter, if you would avoid
delay), or, in making white bread, kneaded
well, and left to rise in a mass. A very
sweet, moist bread is made by scalding all
of the flour used for the sponge, and knead-
ing this when light, without dilution with
more water. It should rise again, in the
mass (if made of white flour), and be well
kneaded again when made lntoloaves, to rise
the third time, preparatory to baking. This
scolded fine flour sponge, when light, maybe
stirred thickly and thoroughly with either
cold-blast flour, entire wheat flour, or gra.
ham, and kneaded once lightly, and put
directly into the bread pan. This will make
sweet bread without the use of sugar, pro-
vided the yeast is fresh and good. Imean
that it will have a decidedly sweet taste.
Fresh yeast seems to be more necessary for
the brown flours than for the white. The
sponge for bread, made of “Entire Wheat
Flour," may be made of either the brown or
white flour, and so far I like it best with the
sponge scalded. But there is danger of
scalding the yeast too, in which :case the
bread will either not rise at all, or rise very
slowly and imperfectly, as it does when kept
too cool. When the flour is scalded, either
let it stand until cool enough, or only put in
boiling water to make it up into a stiff
dough, and gradually thin this with cold
water until it is cool enough. Try it with
the finger after stirring it up well from the
bottom, and do not add the yeast until the
batter is not above blood heat.—Amareean

Traits of"‘0ld Indian " Charac-
i . ter.
People tell you that the real “Old Indian”
is dying out, that his deathblow was struck
with the cessation of the company's rule,
and certainly the race of thin, parchmenty,
curry-eating, hookah-smoking men, with
half-caste wives, and “Chce chee" families
reared in India, and speaking English with
an impure pronunciation, and three lacs of
rupees in debt, is almost extinct; but the
real cause of his disappearance is simply
the improved facilities of communication
with England, and the establishment of Hill
sonitarra. The lady who will spend a whole
morning in her veranda, turning over the
contents of every handle a boxwallah’s pack
ago then dismiss the unfortunate trader
without buying anything of him, or making
the least return for the many hours she has
related for him, is indeed still to be met
with, but not so frequently as of yore.

valiant countrywoman, who, on being told
by the head-man that there were positively
no eggs, no chicken, and no milk in this vil-
lage, drew from her pocket a newly invented
lucifer matchbox, and suddenly striking a
light and holding it to the nose of the aston-
ished native, wmmanded him to produce
instantly all that she required. The head-

have been pr need only by a very power-

Gospel Temperance Work.
Of late your countrymen Mr. Murphy and
Mr. Booth have been conducting evangelis-
tic temperance meetings with extraordinary
success. Manchester, Stookport, Bristol.
Southampton, London, and other places have
been visited. The Blue Ribbon army has
rallied immense numbers round its standard,
and is making vigorous assaults upon the
strongholds cf the drinking system. Rev.
C. H. Spurgeon has taken the blue ribbon.
I have a letter this morning from the chair-
man of the Southampton School Board, an
eminent Congregationalist, and one of the
magistrates of the borough: “ We have had
a blue-ribbon work. Mr. Carlyle, the pastor
of the church from which Isaac Watts, the
great hymn writer, went out, wears it always
So do I; so do many." And it is the same
in every town where the mission is carried
on. The numbersenrolled are nnprecedently
large. In one place one.third of the inhabit-
ants took tho blue. ribbon; and the conse-
quenceisthat the public houses have lost
their value. . A house which cost its present
landlord two thousand pounds can be bought
for six hundred pounds. In Wokinghsm

Denominational Temperance So-
ciety of England.
The Church of England .has led the way
for temperance work of late years. Arch-
bishop of York, Bishop Ellicott, Canons,
Wilberforce and Ellison, and large numbers
of the parochial clergy, have put forth all
their strength, and the outcome of varied
and earnest labors is, that in twenty dioceses
the membership has reached the high figure
tired and ten individuals. The total, of
course, is much larger. |There is, also, {a
scaman’s branch, and branches for railway
employees and for domestic servants. Our

much more modest, not to say contracted,
dimensions. gIt reports among its members
only seven hundred and six ministers. bur
hundred and fifty-three deacons, and two
hundred students. A good work is being
done. Rev. W. L. Lang is its lecturer and
traveling agent. This baptism of temperance
reform in the spirit of evangelistic piety, is
one of the most promising signs of the times
in England. To induce the people, especially
the low and drunken, to become Christian
teetotsllers, is worthy of the zeal and liber-
ality that can he enlisted in the crusade
against the drinking customs of English so-
ciety.

Temperance Notes.
Garibaldi was for many years a total ab-
stainer.
Lexington, Ky., votes on the license ques-
tion the first Monday in August.
Governor St.John, of Kansas, is to address
the New England Reformed Men's Meeting
in New Hampshire.
Mr. Spurgaon has gladdened the hearts of
the temperance workers in Great Britain by
publicly donning the blue ribbon.
Paisley, a busy little town in Renfreshire'
Scotland, has come into the sweep of the
Gospel. temperance movement. No fewer
than twenty thousand persons have assumed
the blue ribbon. .
At Queen Victoria's birthday banqustfiii
was noticeable that Sir Wm. Harcourt, the
Home Secretary, drank only water.‘ He an-
nounced to some inquirers that he abstained
ufor his stomach’s sake."
____.—_—
New License Law.
It has generally been supposed that towns
which voted for no license last year were
not obliged to vote upon the question this
year unless a petition was brought by the
opponents of that policy asking for a vote
upon the question.
This is a mistake. The temperance advo-
cates must. now commence anew under the
law passed last winter, which supersedes all
other statutes on this subject.
All towns which voted for no license last
year must, by a petition signed by not less
than twenty-five voters and taxpayers, ask
the selectmen to give notice in their warning
of the annual town meeting that an election
for this purpose will be held.
Having once voted no license under the
new law that vote holds, and the town will
remain a no-license town until a new vote is
taken at a regular town meeting upon a pc-
tition brought by the opponents of that pol-
icy.
A town not voting this year will be con-
‘sidereda license town and one in which
licenses may be granted.

The New Telephone Call.
patented is most simple. It provide an arm
resting in the armature of the telephone, so
adjusted that when the magnet is charged
and attracts the armature the arm is freed.
It is so balanced that a longer and then falls
upon a bit of metal completeing a separate
circuit and starting an electric ball. This
bell may be set a half mile or more from the
telephone. The combination is thus design-
ed to be useful to doctors, liverymen, or
others, who having telephones in their ofll-
ces, may desire to have an alarm call at their
homes or stables. There? had been signals
patented which showed a man whether his
telephone had been called during his absence,
but this invention attracts attention at once,
asthe electric bell continues ringing until
switched off at the instrument. It is also so
adjusted that it can be used as an electric
call. It may be worked with the same bat-
tery which runs the telephone, but as com-
panies would ordinarily object to this, a
common two cell battery will be used.

Not Eager to be Married.
Charles D. Weber, acigarmaker employed
in Councilman Neuscheller's factory at Union"
Hill, N. 1., was to. have been married Mon-
day to Miss Sophie Mannie, of Bonnsville.
The prospective bride and her friends were
ready at the appointed hour, 7 o’clock, but
time passed and Weber was still absent.
The bride finally removed her wedding finery
and some of the male members of her family
started out to look for Weber. They soon
learned that he had borrowed $35 from his
employer in the afternoon, $15 from some of
his workmen packed his valise and started
for. parts ‘un nown. When the news was
.brought to Miss Minnie she swooned and af-
terward went into a fit of hysterics. It was
afterward learned that Weber had borrowed
$35 from his bride-elect to provide himself
with a wedding outfit. Weber had been only
three months in Union Hill and previously
lived in Philadelphia.

In a certain room there are eleven women
sitting down. A lady the house with
a new spring bonnet on. Find the number
who got up and rushed to. the window.
(That’s where you get fooled. One of ’em
was to lame to get out of her chair.
Did you see. .the moon over your right
shoulder, my dear?" said she to him as they
roamed down the. walk. N—n—no, not ex-
actly; but I just saw the old man over my
left shoulder, and I’ll bid you good night.’
No kisses served up with that parting—Boa.

Great ago and painful disease are a sad combi-
r.a..ion. Y at Mr. William Westfall, formerly of
Rock City, Duchess 00., N. Y., now of Washing-
ton Hollow,in the same county, came to the ot-
tloe oI‘Dr.David Kenned , the eminent thsl~
clan and Snrgeonpf Ron out, N. 12, some time
since, in a condition to excite the sympathy of
the most cold-blooded and hard-hearted person
in the world. We say he came—ha was, rather,
con ted to the Doctor's ofiice. for he was totally
hel less. and bore the weight of 80 years besides.
He ad suffered long from Retention ofUrine,and
hadall the symptoms. of _an aggravated case of
calculus formations lnfislo bladder. The usual
instrumental examinations revealed the presence
In the bladder of It urinary calculus of uncommon
size. Dr. Kennedy frankly told hir.Wcstiail that
owln to his age and debi fly. on operation was
out o the question, but that he could, by the re-
scriptionof "henneny’s Favorite Remedy,’ to-
gether with local treatment, make _him comfort-
able and leave him to live out all his days. The
outcome ofthis was that the patient enjoys good
health to this day.
The Reasons why
Dr. Kennedy’s "Favorite Remedy" is being ex-
tensivelp used by our people are as follows: It is
a. comb nation of vegetable alteratives. It is
pleasant to thetaste, adapted to both sexes and
all es, in effective in ailordlngdmmedlate relief
in at cases of Kidney troubles. iver Complaints,
Constipation of the Bowels, and derangements

when drawing a heavy loaded wagon up an
incline, and the rapid motion of the wagon
asit rushed back into the mine developed
heat enough to inflame the highly combusti-
ble ore. The fire spread so quickly through
the mine that thirteen workmen were unable
to escape, and many others were injured.
Mr. W. H. Preece, 'the electrician of the
British Post Ofilce, has tried the interesting
experiment of telegraphing without the aid
'of wires across the channel separating the
Isle of Wight from ,England. Large
metal plates were immersed in the sea at
opposite ends of the Solent—namely, at
Portsmouth and Rydc, separated by six
miles of water, and at Hurst Castle and
Sconce Point, with one mile of channel sep-
aration. The Portsmouth and Hurst Castle
plates were connected by a wire passing

In an experiment described to the French
Academy by Mons. Bergeron, a miniature
imitation of the craters in-the moon is pro-
duced by sending a current of hot air
through a brass tube into a mass of melted
but gradually cooling metallic alloy. Mons.
Bergeron looks upon the experiment as a sug-
gestion of the manner in which the lunar
craters may have been formed.
A cast iron containing twelve per cent. of
silicon has been adopted by a German inven-

Concerning electro-horticulture, Dr. C. W.
Siemens, in his address as President of the
British Association for the Advancement of
Science, stated that he' had only toadd to
his previously recorded observations that
wheat, barley, oats and other cerals sown in
the open air had shown a marked accelera-
tion of growth under the influence of the
electric light. This'was not very apparent
until toward the end of February, when
with the first appearance of mild weather
the plants under the influence of an electric
lamp of 4,000 candle power, placed about
sixteen feet above the surface, developed
with extreme rapidity, so that by the end of
May they stood four feet high, with the ears
in full bloom, when those not under the
influence of the lamp were less than two
feet in height, and showed no signs of the
ear.
The observations upon tree-growth in
Mexico made by Mons. Charney tend to show
that in damp tropical climates the concentric
rings, from which the tree’s age is usually
calculated, mayform at the rate of ones
month instead of one a year.
A “bent equatorial" telescope, an inven-
tion of Mons. Loewy, is now in operation at
the Paris Observatory. The peculiarity of
the instrument is that, in consequence of the
bending and the use of two reflecting mir-
rors, the astonomer can observe jail the
celestial bodies without jrising from his
table. .

Mons. Camille Flammarion, the French
astronomer, endeavors to amount for the re-
cent remarkable changes which have appear-
ed on the surface of Mars by supposing that
innndations and other movements of great
bodies of water are more extensive on that
planet than on the earth.
Mons. Dessans claims to have converted
oxygen into azone by the direct action of in-
tense light.
Dr. Constantine Fahlberg recently de-
scribed to the German Technical Society a
new substance which he estimates to possess
from twenty to thirty times the sweetness of
cane sugar. In chemical language the new
body would be called “anhydrosulphamin-
benzoic acid.”
A distinguished German pathologist, Prof.
Schmale, advises all who wish to attain a
long life to swallow daily the juice of six or
eight lemons. He believes that the citric
acid will quickly dissolve and carry OR the
surplus of food and decaying matter, and al-
most indefinitely preserve health.
