Soldiers of 1872.

At meeting of the surviving sol
ders of 1872, residing in the county OF
Washington, Penna., held at the Val
entine House, in Washington, on the
18th day of June, 1869, the following
resolution were unanimously adopted:
ReSOLUcd, That it is just that the
few soldiers of the war of 1872, still
living, should receive from the govern
ment, in the shape of pensions, such
proper recognition of their services
as they deserve.
ResOLred, Thatwe will petition Con-
gress to grant pensions to the surviv-
ing soldiers of the said war, and the
Hon. John GraysOn and Joseph Hen
derson are hereby appointed a COM
mittee to forward the petition to Con-
gress at its next session, and takesuch
other action rs they may deem proper
to further our claims.

LIFE IN YASSAR COLLEGE
How Young Ladies' DepOrt Themselves when the
Masculine Elementis Exeluded.

The last number Of the Vassar Col
lege Transcript, edited by the young
ladies of that institution, contains the
following glimpses of female eollegi-
ate life when unaceompanied by the
harsher sex:
Social class meetings are "a great
institutiOn'-we are sure of that
They bring the members of the sever
al classes into closer relationship, and
help to cultivate that strong class
feeling which we in some degree lack.
We can not reveal the secrets of
the other SOeials, and we certainly
shall not tell our own. They are de-
ightful, and that's enOugh.n
Feats of pedestrianism are also un-
doubtedly INDUCED in, for we read
that
Botanical foot races are all the
rage here this season they come off
in great numbers every clear day.
By the rules of the turf no detOurs
may be made for stone walls or plow-
ed ground, the prize is generally some
new or rare specimen with a name
nearly yard and a half long. The
most ardent naturalist, however, Oc-
| casionally captures some member of
the 'animal kingdom" to the intense
disgust Of those sensitive mOrtals who
scream at eaterpillars and go into
cOnvulsiOns over a snake"
In very readable, spicy article on
"ElOcution," the Transcript tells how
the ladies of Vassar College acquire
bOldness to stand in an assembly of
thirty critical listeners and use the
whole force of their lungs. The
writer says:
Take walk to "Sunset Hip at
almost any hour of the day and listen.
Your ears will be saluted from all
sides. From the valley resounds the
challenge: "HoI Captain of the
Moorish hold, unbar the gate to mep
as if an armed host was advancing
upon citadel but it is only a student
of Vassar College practieing elocutiOn
as she takes her sixty minutes of ex-
| ercise. From the other side comes
/ the triumphant shout of Liberty
Freedom! Tyranny is deadp while
/ from the distance echoes the enthusi g.
astic cry of 'Hurrah! hurrah for
Sheridanp which the hills prolOng in
answering tones.
''The timid young lady seeks refuge
behind the hill by the big ehesnut
tree where she may test the strength
Of her voice to the utmost. First She
tries it in the low pitch; then she
gradually rises to the highest; next,
she calls aloud, hailing all sorts of
! imaginary beings, until she finally
commands whole army to Forward
the Light Brigadep and Charge for
the gunsF in such laundering tones
as to provoke q startling response
from the neighbOring pasture Be
hold the whole herd of cattle, with
heads half raised and horns directed
as if ready for the charge, listening
in mute establishment to the strange
command; thinking it a challenge to
them, they make reply in tones not
unlike her own.
/ The most astonishing mode of
! practice, however, which we have
witnessed, is when a young lady
mounted on her steed, comes riding at
furious pace, with eolors flying, and
excited to the degree of believing
herself to be the gallant 'six hun
dred."

Tho Trials of Editors.

We make the following extract from
an address, recently delivered before
the Iowa Press Association" on this
subject: In speaking of the reven-
ue Of the press, | cannot refrain from
expressing my views on the subject Of
free advertisements. There is always
to be found in every considerable COM
munity q set of men who imagine by
some dispensation, they ought not,
like other mOrtals, to pay for what
they receive. Editors have eXtraOr-
dinary facilities for making their ac-
quaintance, and are very kindly per-
mitted to contribute gifts to their sup
port. In what other branch of busi-
ness would this be tolerated? Allow
ing that one has put the press under
some obligation, does he not general
ly expect to get back more than the
worth of his services?
Ifaman does an editor a favor of a
remarkable value, let him have his
remuneration, cash.
On the other hand require him to
pay for what the paper had done for
him. It is rs reasonable TO expect the
carpenter to shingle your house and
the tailor to make your clothes with
out charge, as to prepare and publish
matter for anOther's benefit without
compensation. Long obituaries, mar
riages Ornamented by extracts from
all the poets, and lengthy putfs of
some ones corner lots or improve
ments, come under this class of adver-
tisements. This custom of gratuitous
notices and advertisements from any
quarter ought to cease, for the reason
that it would be benefit of the edi-
tors pocket, and would in some de-
gree abate an almost intOlerable nui-
sance. The editors path has more
thorns than roses, and there is no law,
human or divine that should Oblige
him to shoulder the burden of those
who are too lazy or stingy to take
care of themselves. People will come
to terms where they find their inter-
ests are involved in a reasonable COM
pliance.

A painful catastrophe has oecurr,

A painful catastrophe has occurred
in New York. A beautiful damsel,
with all the charms of maidenhood,
unfortunately had black hair. Fe-
male vanity and NiblO's Theater
taught her that blonde would be more
attractive, so she rushed to the dye
pot. The artist was engaged for 500,
half in advance. One side Of the tur-
bulent dark hair was smOOthed into
golden ripples, when the hair dresser,
to increase his profit, resortsd to in
ferior drugs. The effect was disastrous.
Purple and streaked and gray and
burned, and, indeed, utterly ruinous
was the last half of the professors
work. There remained for the bro
ken hearted semi-blonde only the poor
satisfaction of suing for damages.

Terrible Fight with a Horse.

From the Eaton Rapids (fieh.) Journal.
Mr.. George Hamlin, of this place,
had very narrow escape from death
on Sunday morning last. 1t appears
that the large black stallion owned
by Hamlin d Wellman had become
unruly on Saturday afternoon, but
after conflict with him, Mr.. Ham
lin had considered him subdued. On
Sunday morning, however, while he
was being fed and taken care of he
watched an opportunity, and rushed
wildly at Mr.. Hamlin, catching him
by the head with his mouth, and in
flicted a severe bite, tearing the scalp
loose from the skull and rupturing
the temporal artery which runs over
the head. This so stunned Mr.. H.
that he had begun to fall, when the
horse would no doubt have paved
him to death; but at this critical mo-
ment when the horse was furious
with rage, the hOstler ran into the
stall and struck the beast a heavy
blow between the eyes with a ham,
mer, not, however, before he had
again bitten Mr.. H. several times on
the arm and shoulder. The blow
given the horse partially stunned
him, and enabled Mr.. Hamlin to get
out of his reach. Mr.. Wellman hear
ing of the affair, undertook to punish
the horse, when the animal made for
him, and seized him by the waist
band of the pants, reared up with
him not letting go his hold until
attacked by men with clubs, and then
completely tearing the pants off from
Mr.. Wellman. Again, in the after
noon of Sunday last, he got loose and
out into the barn yard, when it be-
came necessary to actually choke him
down, by means of a slip-nOOse, before
he would permit any one to get with
in reach Of him. During the ehok-
ing process his frenzy was fearful to
witness, as he struggled to get hold of
those nearest him. No trouble has
ever been had with him before this
that we know Of, except in the case
of the breaking of Mr.. Montgomery's
leg, this being the same horse.

A Curiosity.

The Augusta Me- Journal has the
following:
Twenty years ago, or in the spring
ofIS49, the Superintendent of the Bur
iaI Ground in Hallowell-Capt. John
Beeman, who is still one of the busi-
ness men of that city-purchased a
number of silver poplar trees, avera-
ging about two inches in diameter at
the ground, and five feet in hight, and
transplanted them in the cemetery
They fiourished finely, and have be-
come large trees, adding very much
to the beauty of the cemetery. y few
DAYS ago one of these trees was cut
down by direction of the present Su-
perintendent, Col. w. :. Haines, for
the reason that its branches were BRO
ken off by the great ice storm of last
winter, and the ruined tree measured
twenty-one inches in diameter at the
stump, and was about forty feet in
length.
Imbedded in the centre of the trunk
was found the original tree, of the
same size rs when transplanted twen-
ty years ago, but minus the bark. All
the the growth of the tree had been
outside of and apparently detached
from the original. The core of the
original tree was loose, and fell from
its sepulchre when the trunk was be-
ing split. though 1t was as full of life
as when tranSplanted. Upon the orig
inal tree, which is about five feet
long, and two inches in diameter at
the largest end, were ten knots show
ing that number of limbs to have been
sawed off when the sapling was set
out. The marks of the saw are as dis
tinct as if made yesterday. This Gu
rious freak of nature may be Seen at
the store of Captain Beemau, in Hal
lowell. 1t is a genuine curiosity, and
worthy a place in the States cab
met. We doubt if a similar specimen
can be produced.

MY REAL DREAM.
BY MERcIA BoYNToN LANE.

BY MERCIA BOlNTON LANE.
By the ''dark mysterious river
Dreamed that stood beside,
Laveing in the crystal fountain,
Where perpetual sun-beaIns glide.
Watched shadows, coming, going,
Yet another life there seemed,
When the very air breathed music
And the earth with beauty teemed.
Loving friends around me gathered,
Loving lips to mine were prest,
As ] hovered tween the two worlds,
In my dark and wild unrest.
But my mother-lOve upheld me.
Twas not pOwerless then to save,
And knew that God would spare
The life, he to me gave.
Then woke to life and gladneSs-
Woke to duty, care and love,
Woke TO guide and guard my children
To "Our Fathers" home above.
Woke TO earnest, broad endeavor,
Gain to fight life's battle Ger
Till too weary with the burden
l shall wake on earth no more.
