\ THRILLING SCENE,-We learn from
the Courier that ON Monday evening last,
at about six o'clock, when the section
hands ON the Rutland \ Burlington Rail
road were quitting work, four boys were
discovered ON a cake Of lee in Otter Creek,
floating out in the stream some fifty rods
below the Center Rutland railroad bridge,
Three Of the boys, aged respectively $, IL,
and 10, were sons Of Mr., John Gallagher,
The father discovered them and enjoincd
the boys TO remain ON III, floating ice,
They did SO, and the wind and current
eventually brought the cake Of ice near
enough TO the shore, that the father was
enabled to rescue his little sons
The fourth boy. son Of Mr.. Carlos
Snow, was not so fortunate, for when in
the middle Of the swollen stream, he be-
came frightened and fell off the floating
cake into the stream. and as he was going
down for the third time, was caught in
the arms of Mr., Timothy Henncssey ione
of the section hands who stripped off his
clothing, sprung into the creek, and swan
10 his rescue He had to dive under
floating ice to save himself and the boy
from being crushed, and eventually threw
the boy upon a cake of lee, where he
opened his mouth and rolled him over un-
til he showed signs of life, The boy was
taken home and is now doing well,

A BRAVE WoMAN.--A brave woman
has just stood the trial of the courts in
Boston. A servant-girl was discharged
ON account of theft. She at once COM
menced an action for defamation When
nine ladies' out Of ten would have bought
themselves off, and sacrificed their right to
speak the truth ont of terror of publicity,
Mrs. Binney would not buy peace so dear
not even when Bridget offered to with
draw the suit If iitef. mistress would pay
all the costs so the trial took place, and
it was decided that the employer had a
perfect right to state the reason why she
discharged the domestic, if she had rea-
son to think it founded in fact.

ADVANTAGE OF YEARs-Yor are get
ting. into years. Yes, but the years are
getting into you-the ripe, rich years, the
genial, mellow years, the lusty, lucious
years. One by one the crudities of your
youth are falling off from you, of vanity,
the egotism, the insulation, the bewilder-
ment, the uncertainty Nearer and near
er you are approaching yourself. You
are consolidating your forces You are
becoming master of the situation On
the ruins of shattered plans you find your
vantage ground. Your broken hopes.
your thwarted purposes, your defeated
aspirations, become a staff of strength
by which you mount to sublimer heights
With self-possesSion and selfcommand of
all things, the title deed of creation, for
feited, is reclaimed. The king has come
to his own again. Earth and sea ana
sky pour out their largeness of love. All
the crowds pass down to lay their treasure
at your feet.

sir, no, sir. Oar security is m our
aoatchfulaess of erecutire po,cer. 4 was
the constitution of this department
which was infinitely the most difficult
part in the great work of creating our
present government. To give to the ex-
ecutive department such power as should
make it useful, and yet not such as should
render it dangerous to make 1t efficient,
independent, and strong, and vet to pre-
vent it from sweeping away everything
bv its union of military and civil authorl-
ty by the infu ence of patronage and Office
and favor, this, indeed, was difficult.
They who had the work to do saw the
difficulty, and we see it and if we would
maintain our system, we shall act wisely
to that end, by preserving every restraint
and every guard which the constitution
has provided.

IT IS HARD CASE, BoYs.-Our
Democratic friends are pressed full sore,
to fnd explosives that will in any way
relieve their feelings. We know how to
pity them, and we are considered some
on expletives,-a regular graduate-but
we have seen great many times, during
the past six years When all the hard
words we knew We on sort of relief to
us. The idea that there could be found
in the North men who could still sym
pathize with the blood-stained, prisoner,
starving, pestilence-importing, railroad
tiends, city burning, niger killing, COW
enant- breaking, living, thieving, heaven
despised, hell-deserving, sneaking, lousy
ignorant, degraded, Southern traitors, has
been too much for us great many times,
and we do not blame the Democrats for
this lack of words, when they find them
selves fairly headed off in their last great
move to reinstate the late rebel govern
mcnts which Grant had unconstitution-
ally destroyed. Do as old Turner did in
trying to abuse his wife; after calling
her everything he could think Of, he sat
down and gave it up for want of an edu-
cation; that is all there is left for you,
gentlemen; therefore, let off your bile
it viii do you little good, if you can
only find some one that cares anything
| about it;-there is the rub.-Ilacane

HEALTHFULNEss OF APPLES The
Milwaukee Sentinel very truly says there
is scarcely an article Of vegetable food
more widely useful Or more universally
liked than the apple. Why ever farmer
has not an apple orchard. where the trees
will grow at all, is one of the mysteries.
Let every housekeepcr lay in good sup
ply Of apples, and it will be the most
economical nvestmentin the whole range
Of crlinaries A raw mellow apple is di
gested in an hour and half, while boil
ed cabbages require five hours. The
most healthful dessert that can be placed
on the table is baked apple. IF eaten
frequently at breakfast with coarse bread
and butter, without meat or fish of any
kind, it has an admirable effect on the
general system, often removing constipa-
ton, correcting acidities, and cooling off
iebrile conditions more effectualIy than
the most approved medicines. IF fami-
lifes could be induced to substitute apples
sound and ripe-for pies, cakes and
+ sweatmeats, with which their children are
too frequently stuffed, there would be a
dlminution in the sum total of doctors
bills in single year sufficient to lay in a
stock of this delicious fruit for the whole
seasons use.

out the North The Democratic party
were hostile to the national debt in its
inception, and have always sympathized
more strongly with the Southern than
the Northern bondholder, and if they re-
fuse to accede TO the demands of the
South in this matter it will be the first
time in their history. And l may say to
the national creditors, right here that
the payment of their debt viii depend alb
soutely upon the future supremacy of
the idea that the war to suppress the
rebellion and preserve the Union was
waged in righteous cause. The antago-
nlstic idea will never pay the debt.
PENSIONING REBEL SOLDIERS.
Another issue Immediately invoked in
the success of the Democratic party is the
pensioning of the rebel soldiers, their
widows and orphans, and placing item
upon a level with the soldiers of the
Union. Is it to be supposed for one
moment that rebels when restored to
power in the national government, will
levy taxes and vote money to pension
Union soldiers, their widows and orphans,
while their own are unproviGed for and
left in poverty? This would be against
human nature, and upon this they never
would compromise The elevation of the
rebel soldier will follow the elevation of
the Democratic party to power, as surely
as the moon will follow the rising sun,
and if you would comprehend what would
then BE- the condition of the Union sol
der look to his present status in the
Democratic States of Kentucky and
Maryland. In these States he is to-day
an outcast from society. He is proscrib-
ed socially as infexibly as if he had been
an inmate Of the Penitentiary, and is
equally prescribed in his business. If.a
farmer, his neighbors will not help him
if Il merchant, they viii not buy his goods;
if a lawyer or doctor they will not employ
him and his home has become more
cruel than foreign land, and he must
go forth into exile for the crime of hay
ing been faithful to his country.
Such are the main points of Senator
Morton's mastery address. They will
go straight to the heart of our patriotic
people like strong religious truths Act
ing npon them, and discarding all dlvi-
siens, with General Grant for our stand
ard bearer, we shall not only complete
reconstruction in the South, but consoli-
date the Republican party into an endur-
ing national organization, by a sweeping
triumph in the November elections.

MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC.
Mrs. ID. r. Bowers as "EIizabeth.' ;

Mrs. ID. II. Bowers as "EIizabeth."
Giacomt tits play Of Elizabeth is a clever pro.
duction. and it affords opportunities for
capable actress to display a wide range of
abilities 1t does not, no wever, wear as we'll on
frequent repetition as Hao.lo' for instance. and
seen too often. 1t Is In fact trte tedious, Mrs.
Bowers essayed the r0e of elizabeth" last
evening, on the occasion of her benefit, for the
first time in this city, and that the audience
was not as enthusiastic as they should have
been must be attributed TO the fact that the
play has lost something Of The charm of fnovelty.
Mrs. Bowers performance was in many re-
spects excellent, although we do not think that
the part is one exactly suited to her
style Of acting. In the early scenes
and too deliberate In her utterauce. This, how
ever, wore Off TO some extent as the play pro-
gressed, and in the second aud subsequent acts
some of the most striking points were rendered
with fine effect. Mrs. Bowers, however, ap-
reared to the best advantage in what might be
termed the comedy scenes, and the little love
passage between Elizabeth" and Essex" in the
second act was the most pleasing portion OF the
performance. While giving Mrs. Bowers the
credit she is entitled 10 tor her "Elizabeth," we
cannot help expressing the opinion that she
would do better to drop 1t from her repertoire,
and adhere TO the line OF parts in which she is
really great. Her Donna DIANA" for instance
in LOre'S Masquerade, Mr.. Westlsnd Marston's
adaptation of tAe classic Spanish
comedy of EI DesdeR CON el Desden,
is a remarkably fine personation, and we
wonder that she does not play 1t more fre-
quently. Loves Masquerade was performed at
the Walnut about Two years ago, and IL was
much applauded by ~ large and aapreciative
audience. The comedy itself is elegant and
very entertaining, and The part of Donna
Diana" Is one of Mrs. Bowers best. Mr..
Wacot too, on the occasion referred to. acted
| the pert of Don Caesar" finely, and we would
| like 10 see him and Mrs. Bowers in the same
| piece again. We hope, however, If tho
| play is given during the present engagement of
| Mis-. Bowers, that no will make a judicious
| selection from his wardrobe, SO as to be able
to dress the part better than he did two years
ago. What Is the meaning of the phrase "for
this occasion only" appended to an actors
name in the play bills Mr.. Walcot has been
announced as the repreS entative of
Lord Bacon" "for this occasion ouly'
more times thas we we'll remem-
Der. Last night he acted the part as IL
he wished that this occasion" might be the last
he would ever be called upon TO give counte-
nance and support to Glacomeltis burlesque OF
"the large.browed Vorulam," and in this our
wishes entirely coincide with his. Mr.. McCol-
lom made q very different Essex" except In
the quarrel scene in the third act when he
played with some degree of energy and expires
sion. The other parts were not done in such q
way as to advance the reputation of the
