DEATH OF TIE MING or SWEDEN AND Nor
wly-A telegram from Stockholm announces
the deathot OSCAR, King Of Sweden X Norway.
The event occurred on the Sth of July, after an
illness which had incapaciiated the King from
taking any active part in Government since
Sept, 1857. King OsCtR was the son of BEE-
NADoTTE, whom he succeeded on the Swedish
throne in 1911. Born in Paris in 1899, hc was
placed at the age Of nine years in the Imperial
Lvceum: but on the accession of his father to
the throne, his studies were interrupted, and his
education was confined to the requirements of
his new position. New preceptors were provi-
ded for the heir presumptiyc, and in the year
1910, with his father he set out for Stockholm 4,
abjuring Catholicism on the way thither, and
embracing Lutherinism. Under the teachings
of his preceptors, VI. TANNSrRoEM and the poet
ArrERBoRN he rapidly acquired proficiency in
the Swedish language. In 1871, he entered the
Swedish Army. In 1918, when his father as
cended the throne, he was appointed to the
Chancellorship of the University of Upsal, and
began an active literary career In the same
year, he became Colonel of the Guards, and ad-
vanced rapidly in military honors. He was sue
cessively named Grand Admiral of Sweden and
Norway, Lieutenant General, and Communicate
General OF Artillery. In July, 1878 he married
JOSEPHINE MAXlMIIIENNE EUGENE, eldest
daughter of EUGENE BEAUHARNAIS, Duke of
Leuchtenberg. In 1884, he was named Niceroy
of Norway, and in 1888 exercised the powers of
the Regency during the illness of his father.
In March, 1911, he asccnded the throne, and
became heir to personal fortune of S0,O0O,000
francs, saved by BERNADorTE from a civil list of
but 100000 per dnnum.
King OSCARS Government was marked by
liberality and justice. In 1915, the year follow
ing his accession, he presented to the Diet sew
eral projects of reform,-a proposition for the
abolition of the right of primogeniture in no.
bic families, and another for the revision of the
criminal code and, in the succeeding year,
named a Commission for a revision of the Con-
stitution. His measures have redounded to the
welfare of his people, and his reign was pacific.
He is succeeded by his eldest son, Prince
CHARLES, who was appointed Regent by royal
ordinance in 1857, when the Kings illness be-
came so severe as to unfit him for the conduct
of affairs. The present King (CHARLEs XV.)
was born in 1926, and married in 1880 the Prin-
cess LOUISE, daughter of Prince WILLIAM OF
the Netherlands.

BRATTLEB0R0 AND ITS SURROUNDINGS.
The editor of the Green Mountain Freeman,
of Montpelier, having looked over our village
at the time of the recent State Convention
gives the following as his impressions:
awe have 10 confess to an unexpected and de-
lightfu surprise, in the reception Of the dele
gates by the citzcrs Of Brattlcboro'. Hereto
fore, when We have attended Conventions, we
have gone mainly as a matter of political busi-
ness which, however, It may exercise the wits
is not by any means always pleasing to the
taste and fancy. We have been received, else
where, as We have received delegates here, by
the hotels, and treated well and handsomely
enough,-as well as politicians deserve to be
treated-but we really think we got good deal
more than our deserts at Bruttleboro'. The
citizens seemed determined that we should ex-
pei from our minds for time the schemes of
political management, and they took the very
best possible way to accomplish their purpose
they took us all to ride about their beautiful
town, and the charming country which is spread
all around them. And We arc glad to be able
to say that a more delightful drive we never
enjoyed. The village OF Brattlchoro' is situated
OH bluff, back little from the Connel tcut
and is the centre of charming landscape
The river pours along its grand current for the
eastern border, and south, and west and north,
are broad, rich farms, and heavy, splendid for
csts. Multitudes of old trees have escaped the
axe in some places even dense groves of them
having been left standing almost within the
limits of the village, and as we passed from the
torrid sun, beneath their grateful shade, we
blessed the hand that had spared ther gnarled
trunks, and outSpreading, protecting arms. The
many beautiful residences, gracefully situated,
adorned with all the elcgances Of a liberal

THE GREAT SQUARE OF FORTRESSEl

inh u"Ini oAoAnH vi ioNinIooEo'
"When Partisan takes up his newspaper in
morning" says one of the London journals,
"that first word which meets his eye is the
Quadrilatiere On meeting friend, instead of
greeting him with the everlasting flow do you
do his first question is How about the Quad
rilatiere ?" What renders the Quadrangle of
such absorbing concern just now is that the
next conflict between the belligerents in Italy
Will probably take place between its lines. We
have before given some account OF the structure
OF the tortresses which have made this square
SO celebrated, hut not so precise and complete
an account, perhaps, as their Importance de-
mands.
Peschiera, Legnano, Verona and Mantua-
these are the names OF the four iortresses whose
geographical positions define the quadrangle
They protect space oblong in shape, bounded
on the west 6y the Mincio, and on the east by
the Adlge. Peschiera hes ON the Mincio, at the
point where that river flows into the Lago di

Our NATURAL BoUNDARIEs.-We should
be surprised to learn that the following story,
in the New Hampshire Patriot is from the pen
of ex-Prcsident Pierce:
Captain -, of the United States navy was
equally distinguished for his eccentricity of
manner and his proficiency in seamanship. On
one occasion, during cruise in the Mediterra-
mean, he so acquitted himself as to induce some
English and French officers, who were engaged
upon similar service, (cruising) to tender him
a complimentary dinner, as an evidence OF their
appreciation of MS professional skill At the
time designated, many we're present. Custom
ary courtesies were being exchanged and inter-
national toasts and sentiments were being lib
orally INDUCED in accompanied by correspond
ing potations, where one of the officers in her
Maiestys service having become somewhat OBJ
livious, remarked, with characteristic brusque-
ness:
captain, have but one great objection to
your countrymen."
"Ahw naiyely said the captain, "what is
that ?"
San Unsuitable desire for the acquisition of
territory" Then becoming excited by his SUBJ
icct, he continued-"I am satisfied, captain,
thore will bo nn end To it"
"Oh, yes" quantity and cody replied the
captain
For goodness sake, when?" emphatically
inquired the officer
"When," responded the captain, preserving
his equanimity, tive reach our natural bounda-
ries"
"Will you please inform me where those may
hep" interrogated the English officer, sarcastic
'Where!" said the captain, assuming an in
imitable manner, '.from HI to the aurora
Borealis"

that he sat down and "talked as clipper as any

UP THE HILL A BERRYING.

On sunny summer morning,

Farmer Davis had n daughter,

On each sunny summer morning Jenny
Up the hill went bcrrying too.

chores about the house, and then, again, going
TO the good book for consolation. She was,
she said poor, lone woman, and she couldn't
help thinking all day long of that very touch
ing passage Of Scripture-in the book of La
mentations, she believed it was-which hit her
case exactly; "Goosey, Goosey Gdnder, ,chere
cW yon ,cahderF
Col. Benton, in the United States Senate, is
reported as speaking Of our Savior having cast
seven devils out of certain man /; and Waddy
Thompson, former member of Congress and
Minister to Mexico, in his "Recollections' of
that country, speaking of the Hospital of Laz-
arus, says: "lhe inmates would have rivaled,
in sores and rags. the brother Of Mary and
MARTHA"
1t is recorded that two members of certain
State Legislature, at the close of the session,
addressed circular to their constituents, in
which they said: "We hope the course We have
pursued, and the votes we have given will meet
your appreciation. We hope YOU will say to us,
as Nathan said to David, 'Nycll done, good and
faithful servants"
Another member, earnestly opposing meas
ure before the House, said: "Mr Speaker,
would no more vote for that measure than
wuuid fall down ana wvrsisiP si-~- .,~,so.. -.-,s
that Abraham made" A brother member cor
rected him, saying: "Mr Speaker it was not
abraham that made the golden calf it was
Nebuchddnezzdr."
The "great men are not always wise," is still
further exemplfed in an anecdote of distn-
guished English Judge, Lord Kenyon, who un-
derstood law better than the Gospel, closed one
Of his charges to jury, as follows: "Finally,
gentlemen, would call your attention to the
example of the Roman Emperor Julian, who
was so distinguished for every Christian virtue,
that he was called Julian the apostle"
That editors should occasionally be at fault
in the Scriptures, is not, perhaps, very strange.
We have room for only one example In CIV
ing an obituary notice of worthy man, it was
remarked: ave say of him, as the Holy Scrip
lures have so beautifully expressed it, An
honest man is the noblest work of God ! and,

source, that God tempers the wind to the shorn

is an Englshman 80 years old, who carries
Lancaster rifle, and, aided by pair of specta-
cles, of which he stands in need, brings down
every Tyrolean casseur that he takes aim at.
Somebody lately asked him whether he had
been attracted to join the volunteer corps by a
strong feeling for the Italian cause or by love
of sport. He answered very cody, ~ have
great respect for Italian Independence, but am
also very fond of shooting"

WORTH OF CHRIsTIANITY.-W live in the
midst of blessings till we are utterly nsensiblc
of their greatness, and of the source from
whence they flow. We speak of our cvliza-
ton, our arts, our freedom our laws, and forget
how large a share is due to Christianity. Blot
Christianity out of the pages OF mans history,
and what would his laws have been? what his
civilization? Christianity is mixed up with our
daily life; there is not familiar object around
us which does not wear different aspect, be-
cause the light of Christian love is on it-nor a
law which does not owe its gentleness to Chris
tianity-not a custom which cannot be traced
in all its holy, heathful parts to the Gospel.-Si

BIBLICAL IGNORANCE.

We are more and more satisfied from seve-
raj samples of Bible reading which have come
under our observation, that our public charac-
tiers, especially politicians, ought to be careful
how they meddle with Scripture.
Gov Wise of Virginia, in his recent letter to
Hon. David Hubbard, says:
"Ihe Reubens have tried to sell me into
Egypt for my dreaming"
Whereupon the New York Express says:
"The Governor has reference, doubtless to
the story of Joseph being sold into Egypt-but,
unfortunately, he has gotit all wrong. Reuben.
it so happens, was the only one of the brothers
who did not want to sell him. The Governor
should join Bible-class right off, and let Cog
gin CO."
A member of Congress from Illinois, few
years ago, (Alr Hoge,) is reported as quoting in
debate, the following lines, as coming from the
Bible:
"While the lamp holds out to burn
The yest sinner may return"
This Scripture quotation of Mr. Hoge brings
to mind an anecdote related to us by a clergy
man, as occurring within his knowledge. A
good woman (the "weakcr vessel" very likely,
of the two,) had lost her husband by death, and
receiving visit of coincidence from the minis
ter, she entered pretty fully into detail of her
feelings Of loneliness and grief, in her widowed
condition. She said she found herself going
back and forth, wandering about the house all
day long, from garret to cellar--now looking
into the room where her poor, dear husband
died, then trying to divert her mind by doing
