OUR Paris correspondent "Wanderer," writ
ing of the famous castle at Vincennes in which
Condo, Diderot, Mirabeau and other illustri-
GUS persons were at different times imprison-
ed, and where sixty odd years ago the unfortu-
nate Duke d'Enghien was shot one dark
March morning, calls it monument of cruel
ty and moralizes as follows: al
We might think these days were better, if
the Criminal courts of England did not tell us
that the present amusement OF their Mary
Mannings and Mary Newels consists in scar
ing children to death with ed-hot iron, or
cooking them alive in cauldrons of boiling wa
ter. Infant torture is now merry sport for
English women.
The meaning of these words is plain enough.
Our correspondent reflects, with a sigh, that
although the donjon at Vincennis is now emp
ty, the spirit of cruelty is not extinct, and that
even the women of a Christian nation like
the English furnish evidence of its continued
existence. Infant torture, she says, "is now
merry sport for English women" meaning of
course some English women, just as we might
say that "Drunke mess is still a vice of Amer
lean Senator'S" without impug ming the sobri-
ETY. of the Sc nate as body Nevertheless a
reader of the Press writes to inform us that
he considers the passage quoted above "a
gross and uncalled-for SANDER upon English
women" adding that sit is simply despicable
to condemn whole race of women for the
acts of few who disgrace their sex" For
the benefit of this befogged individual, we
have undertaken the foregoing otherwise need
less explanation, and in the words of the ex-
cellent Mrs. Camp, "much good may it do him,

MT. brown was welcomed with chrerS as he
took the chair. Nearly generation. he said had
passed away since in 1874 the first great rail-
road enterprise was inaugurated in Portland
1t was a time of great depression. The great
commercial crisis of 1887 had but just passed
by, and the country was almost bankrupt The
business of Portland then was exporting um-
Der hauled in by teams, importing West India
goods, and manufacturing New England rum,
which alone was enough to impoverish the
country. The Washingtonians put stop even
to that industry; our young men were going
away; the tow was in the condition of Salem,
and Newburyport and seemed destined to the
same fate. Our business men were men of
small means; the population of the city was
about fifteen thousand, aud the valuation eight
millions. Yet Portland at that day raised
mi lion in stock to carry on that enterprise,
and nobody doubts now that it was well done.
There were objections then, as there will al
ways be objections to every undertaking. BCs-
ton looked on with undsgused scorn and con-
tempt, which no doubt stimulated and helped
us. But at last the Atlantic and ST. Lawrence
road has done all it can do for Portland. We
have reached another point of departure.
Without new business we can no longer grow
and as no city stands still we must either grow
or shrink. Through the Notch OF the White
Mountains an avenue lies open to ST. Johns.

into bundles ready for the binders, and it
is found that two active men can bind all
the machines cut. I learned also, that a
still more important invention has been
made recently-a machine that cuts off the
heads of the wheat and leaves the straw
standing in the field. This machine leaves
the straw for manure, and saves the hand
ling of the straw, which is immense labor,
and more valuable as manure than for any
thing else. In practice, I found that 8 or 10
acres day were cut by a reaper, and trial
experiments show that twenty acres can be
cut by some machines drawn by two hor-
ses. In all my journey I did not see or
hear of the ordinary grain cradle, so COM
mon among us.
GAIL grass in the west is cut by the now
er, drawn by two horses; it is raked by a
machine pulled by one horse in shafts, and
the rake is completely under the control of
the driver. The shocks are drawn to the
stacks by one horse, on very simple me-
chanical arrangement, and hoisted up by
a machine operated by horse power, called

A FAITHFUL SENTINEL.-The Winches
ter Times records the following account of
the faithful discharge of duty by Federal
soldier:
During the year 1864, when the hostile
forces were struggling for the supremacy
in and around Winchester, Mr.. went
to Major Parsons, provost marshal, and ap-
piled for safe guard. General Fessenden
was called on to fill the demand, which he
did by detailing for this duty Mr.. John -,
of the Second New York cavalry, to whom
he issued imperative orders to remain until
he was relved by proper authority. W.
stood manfully by his post. The tide of
battle surged about him, but his was a charm
ed life, for he had that authority which sa-
we'd him from molestation by the ''rebs. y
The war closed, but with it came no order
to the sentinel, and faithful to the trust con.
fided to him, he is still at the post of duty
The case has been reported to the proper au.
thorities, and Mr.. w. will doubtless soon be
excused from further safe guard duty. That
he will be able to draw full pay up to the
present time has, we learn, been conceded
by competent military authority.
In the meantime, Mr.. W. has "wooed
and won" daughter of Frederick, and as
he is now on double duty, we suggest thai
he is entitled to heavy drawback on the
treasury.

TO-DAY AND TOMORROW.


Small need have those who love romance,
On battlefield to court her,
Where cannons boom, where chargers prance
The roads to strife are shorter.
Each man that earns his daily bread
Has enemies past number;
Hopes dying feelings, crushed or dead,
His onward march cucumber.
Still bravely join Life's fiery fray,
And sternly cope with Sorrow;
The man that bears his cross to-day
VIII have q chance tomorrow.
Hopes, fears, desires, In myriads crowd
Our mortal pathway ever,
The spirits pure perceptions cloud
And clog sublime endeavor:
Grief shame, remorse, and fierce despair
Bring legions to confound us
Such are the dangers we must dare!
Such are the spells around us!
Yet lift thy shield with courage gay,
And hurl thy lance at Sorrow;
The man who steels his nerves to-day,
Can face his foe tomorrow.
Steer, pilot, for some glorious end,
Though late in port arriving.
Heavens grace, like mamma, Will descend,
And sanctify thy striving;
Good, for thy life, resolve to do,
And evil shall avoid thee;
Doubt may have made thy pulse untrue
Sloth may have unemployed thee
Crush out these attributes OF clay,
Stamp on the neck Of Sorrow
The man that perseveres to-day
May be prince Tomorrow!

ANEcDoTE. A. P. Hills division
was tearing up the B. s 0. R. R., in the
fall of 1862, Lanes brigade of that division
was ordered further north than the other
brigades, where live reb was curiosity.
At this time, the Quartermaster had not
procured new clothing to take the place of
the worn, tattered and ragged relics of the
campaign into "My Maryland" and we
were raga muffns-that's fact. Tearing
uprail-roads is not a very pleasant business,
and we had enjoyed ourselves for about
twenty-four hours, when Capt. K. of the
7th N. G. went to house to get something
cooked, and got into quite an interesting
conversation with the good lady of the
house:
Old lady.-"Youi is an officer, isn't you p
Captain K.-"Yes, madam, I am Cap
tain in the 7th N. G. infantry"
Old hdy.-"Thar, now, Betsy Ann, /

breeches patched, and the common soldiers,
they doesn't !"-Te Land We Love.
