alist but his personal popularity kept him
in the governors chair several years after
the democrats were in the majority. Ira
dition has preserved many anecdotes ofthe
expertness with which he became all things
to all men, that he might by all means gain
some votes
Among his political opponents was a
| farmer. of much influence in his own neigh
borhood, and having nothing in common
with Tichenor but the sports of the rivers
and forest. He was invited to visit the
governor and spend the night, and so ur-
gently that he could not well refuse but
suspecting that some political designs were
to be subverted, he fortified himself at all
points against the apprehended assault upon
his democracy. To his surprise, however,
politics. There was good cheer on the ta-
BILE, abundance of wine in the bottles,
and an unceasing flow of pleasant talk
from the Governors lips. They spent
half the night in relating hunting adven-
lures, and in the morning the guest was
dismissed, with many thanks for the visit,
and cordial invitation to repeat it. On
his return home, he was publicly taunted
with having been wheedled out of his po-
litical principles and seduced into the sup
port of Tichenor. He was fired with in
dignation at the falsity of the charge, and
exclaimed-'' You lie every one of you.
He did not say a word about politics or my
vote, but treated me like gentleman, as
he is, and, now, seeing things are going at
this rate, I'll be hanged if | don't vote for
him." He was as good as his word and
his vote, with many others, Just as adroit-
ly secured, helped to swell the popular ma
jority for Tichenor.
He had great tact in discovering and
praising the good qualities of the horse,
cattle, and farm of those who had votes to
give and could ever discover in their chill
| dren beauties and excellencies that were
perceptible to no other eyes than those of
the parents His skill in this respect, how
ever, was sometimes met and baffled bv a
shrewdness equal to his own. Once while
travelling in distant part of the State, he
contrived to pass the residence of a farmer,
of great influence in his town, who had
formerly supported him for governor, but
who was now supposed to be wavering.
On his approach to the place he discovered
the farmer, building stone wall by the
road side Leaving his carriage, the gov
ernor began to examine the wall with great
care and interest, looking over and along
both sides of it, and exhibiting signs OF
excessive admiration. On coming within
speaking distance, the governor exclaimed
with much apparent emotion, L" Bless me,
friend, what a beautiful and noble wall
YOU are building | do not believe there
is another equal to il in the State" "Yes,
was the reply of the farmer, & it's very
good wall to be sure, but | shall have tc
vote for Galusha this year"
He received from Dartmouth College the
honorary degree of Master of Arts il
1899. He also received the honorary de-
gree of Doctor of Laws.

THF PERILs OF HUSBANDS IN PARIS
NJ. Sam relates that he was standing at
ball given at the Tuileries, talking to the
great chemist, Dr. Lisfranc, when he per-
ceived him suddenly becoming pale and
move from his position. Nj. Sam, fancying
that his friend had been taken i'll, followed
him out of the Sale des Mareehaux-
There, having recovered his equanimity, he
said, Il have Just seen beautiful young
bride waltzing with her second husband
Now, am perfectly convinced she muir
dered her first husband. 1t had been a
love match but the young man discover
ed that he had made fatal mistake, and
his health visibly declined. One morning
he was found dead in his bedroom, which
his wife had filled with flowers. especially
with hvacinths Their poisonous emana-
tions had evidently killed him. On being
summoned to examine into the cause of
his death, I perfectly remembered having
related in lis wifes hearing case of poi
soning produced by those very flowers
and on learning that scandalous intrigue
on her part had been the cause of his mis-
erv, have not the slightest doubt that the
wretched woman took this mode of regain
ing her liberty"
This tragic anecdote recalls to me an
other, which one of the first physicians in
Paris related a few days ago as having oc-
Cured to him during the course of his
practice. He had been for some time In
attendance upon wealthy merchant, whose
illness, though of a painful nature, was
not dangerous. Much to DR. Ms surprise,
the symptoms became complicated and NJ.

see the mixture his patient had been taking
during the night, and remarked to the ser
want that the glass from which he had ap-
parently drank was not clean No one,
sir, touches it but madame" replied the
servant. Pouring little water into it. Dr.
n. put it to his lips. He then asked 10

From the Vermont Record.
Isaac TichenOr.
THE THIRD GOVERNOR OF VERMONT.
BY REV. PLISY II. WHITE.

BY REV. PLISY II. WHITE.
Isaac Tichenor was born in Newark, n.
j. Sth February, 1874, and was graduated
at Princeton College in 1775. He COM
menced the study of law at Schenectady,
n Y, but suspended his studies early in
1777 to accept the appointment of assist
ant to Jacob Cuyler, Deputy Commissary
General of purchases for the Northern de-
partment of the Revolutionary Army.
The duties of his office called him into
Vermont, and he arrived in Bennington
14th June, 1777, and was employed there
and in the vicinity most of that summer,
in purchasing supplies. He saw such op-
portunities to achieve honor and distinction
in the young State, that he decided to make
it his home, and accordingly took up his
residence in Bennington.
He continued to discharge the duties Of
commissary till September, 1850. As the
government did not supply him with funds
he was obliged to pledge his own credi
for purchases, and at the close of his ser
vices there were obligations outstanding
against him to the amount of E65, ,1S4 pay
able in continental currency, and II ,324
PAYABLE in specie. Suits were commenced
against him, on which all his property wa
attached, and he was threatened with pc
cuniary ruin. He petitioned the legisla
ture of 1871 for relief, and law was en-
acted, releasing his property from attach
ment and exempting him from suits on ae
| count of his purchases as commissary.

The winds with hymns of praise are loud,
Or low with sobs of pain,-
The thunder-organ of the cloud,
The dropping tears of rain.
With dropping head and branches crossed,
The twilight forest grieves,
Or speaks with tongues of Pentecost
From all its sunlit leaves.
The blue sky is the temples arch,
Its transept earth and air,
The music OF its starry march
The chorus of prayer.
So Nature keeps the reverent frame
With which her years began,
And all her signs and voices shame
The prayerless heart of man.
