TKLzGRAPHING EXTRAORDINARILY up
train over the Bennington and Rutland Rail
road last week ran into a deep snow bank
about three-fourths of mile north of Shafts
bury, and all efforts to back up or go ahead
proved futile. Mr.. John NJ. Hills, telegraph
operator, of Burlington, who happened to
be on the train, suggested that if piece of
wire could be procured. he would endeavor
to inform Rutland of their situation and
have assistance forwarded. The wire was
obtained and a passenger succeeded in climb
ing tel graph pole and cutting the conduct
ing wire This done, Mr.. Hills affixed the
piece of wire to one of the ends of the con-
Quoting wire, and by striking the end OF
this against the other end of the conducting
wire formed circuit and communicated to
the officers of the road, at Rutland their con.
dition. An engine was sent to their assist
ance, and succeeded in aiding the blockaded
train SO far as to enable it 70 arrive at Rut-
land. at three O'Clock Tuesday morning

The Standard Of Dress

We are always excessive when Wa
sacrifice the higher beauty to obtain
the lower one. A woman who will sac.
rifice domestic affection, conscience.
self-respeot, honor, to love of dress,
we all agree loves dress too much. She
loses the true and high beauty of wo-
manhood for the lower beauty of gems
and flowers and colors. A girl who
sacrifices to dress all her time, all her
strength, all her money, to the neglect
of the cultivation of her mind and
heart, and to the neglect of the claims
OF others on her helpfulness, is sacri-
tleing the higher to the lower beauty.
Her fault is not the love of beauty, but
loving the wrong and the inferior kind.
In hne, girls, you must try your
selves by this standard. You love
dress too much when you care more
for your outward adornings than for
your inward dispositions, when it
afhicts you more to have your dress
tern than to have lost your temper
whenyou are more troubled by an ILL
fitting gown than by a neglected duty
when you are less concerned at
having made an unjust comment, or
spread scandalous report, than hay-
ing on paSSe bonnet-when you are
less concerned at the thought of being
found at the last great feast without
the wedding garment than at being
found at the party tonight in the
fashion of last year. No Christian
woman, as l view it, ought TO allow it
to take up all of three very important
things, viz: all her time, ali her
strength, all her money. Whoever
does this, lives not the Christian, but
the Pagan life-wOrships not at the
Christian altar of our Lord Jesus, but
at the shrine of the lower Venus Of
Corinth and Rome.-MrS. .Stowe.

from the Alps to the ocean Paris fol
aweek had known no night, for the
blaze Of countless torches had link ed
the festal days. And in these unpar-
alieled days of enthusiasm and festiy-
ity the name Of Mirabeau had been
perpetual music to the ear of every
republican Frenchman.
With these scenes Of triumph fresh
in mind, Mir,lbeau was suddenly
stricken with mortal sickness. His
thoughts were all engrossed in worldly
concerns. He was a maa of the
world. His life, from the Jrqyura Of
youth to the strength Of maturer
years, had been one of restless am
bition. The current of infdelity that
inundated France had borne him along
its destructive course. He had never
felt the presence of God in prayer,
he had never known the streams Of
delight that flow from the unseen
world. Such things to MIN were
dark, vague, and mysterious, and
death found him without hope or con-
ISOLATION, IAN that can now be done .
said the departing statesn an, sis to
enyelop one's self in perfumes, to
crown ones self with flowers, to sur
round ones self with music, that one
may sink quietly into everlasting
sleep" With such delights he would
fain have lulled the voice of con-
science and diverted his unquiet
thoughts.
The funeral of Mirabeau was in
coneeivably splendid. Four hundred
thousand men, headed by Lafayette,
joined in che imposing pageant. The
streets of Paris were draped, the bells
tolled, and pealihg requiems rose on
every hand. The funeral grafton was
pronounced at eight in the evening, at
the church of Saint Eustache. The
arms of twenty thousand Of the Ma
tional Guard were simultaneously dis
charged, shivering to atoms every
pane of glass in the costly edifce. 1t
was midnight when the vast procession
turned away from the vaults wherein
was deposited the sarcophagus.
And all this pomp and homage was
for one who had never known his God,
and whose soul hungered for sensual
delights to soothe his dying pillow.
The reflection throws a shadow over
the dazzling spectacle, and dampens
our sympathetic elevation Of soul, for
our hearts beat in sympathy with the
pulse of liberated France, and in Mir
abeau there is much to admire.
This is the last of earth. / am
