The enemy made once great attack on
the Danish island of Funen. One village on
ly' was spared but this was also soon to be
sacked and burnt. Two poor people lived IN
low.studded house in the outskirts of the
town. It was dark winter evenings the
enemy was expected and in their anxiety
tbey took the Book of Psalms, and opened it
to see if the psalm which they first met with
could render them any aid or comfort They
opened the book, aud turned to the psalm,
g. A mighty fortress is our God. " Full OF
confidence they sang it and, strengthened IN
faith, they went to bed and slept well-kept

thS night fallen upon the whole house and
hidden it from the enemies, who in the night

JUDGE BARRETT ADDRESS.
After prayer hy the Rev Dr. Drake, the Pres
dent, Rev Dr. Lord, introduced the Hon, James
Barrett of Woodstock, who proceeded 10 read
memorial paper upon the eminent character and
services of the Hon. Charles Marsh, As an ap-
propriate introduction, Judge Barrett briefly and
dItingly alluded 10 the late Hon. Geo. +. lIough-
ton, who deceased while President of this Society
The introduction Of the subject OF this memo
rial was virtually a rehearsal oimany Of the most
important historical incidents of that early pc
riod of Onr State existence, in which he prOmi
nenty figured and with which he was identified
Mr.. Marsh was born in Lebanon, Ct, ia 1865,
Other family statistics were given by the speak
er. When his father removed to Vermont be
settled upon the farm now owned by Hon. John
Porter, near Qucchec village in the town Of
Hartford.
Charles Marsh at that time was but feeble
boy, and was not conveyed 10 his new home till
tine next year after the removal of the family from
Connecticut. lie made Woodstock his home as
young lawyer in 1859. His rapid Advancement
into the front rank of his profession, his success
and popularity as a lawyer were well portrayed
So interesting a subject as the one selected by
the memorialist for this occasion Is not suscepti-
bic Of being condensed 10 a newspaper paragraph,
Judge Barrett knew well of whom he spoke FROM
long personal acquaintance, as well as pupiage as
a law student and afterwards for a short period as
partner in business. The theme 50 familiar TO
the speaker was presented in most interesting de
tail Incidents in the practice Of Mr.. Marsh were
given which received the marked attention Of the
auditors In politics he was a Fedemlst and so
lived and died, In theology he was a Calyinist OF
the Edwards school. His interest and labors in
connection with religious institutions and or
carnations was duly presented, also his high po-
sition as a literary and educational man.
The famous dartmouth College controversy in
which Mr., Marsh bore 30 promiuonta part and
achieved 20 great triumph was an episode Of
much importance in tho memorial His nde-
pendence of feeling as to public ecat or majority
columns was truthlully comprehended and vivid
y portrayed. The peculiarities Of his character
50 well understood and expressed by the late
President Lord, could not have failed to bring
wildly before all who had ever known Mr.. Marsh
the truthiuness Of the picture endorsed by their
own recollections.
1t is unnecessary to add, and no doubt safe to
presume, that so interesting q memorial Of 50
valuable and eminent character will be given
TO the public, through an order Of the Historical
Society, to publish the same entire
Henry Clark presented the following resolu-
ton which was adopted
Resoiped, That the thanks Of the Vermont His
torical Society bo presented to the Hon. James
Barrett for his interesting, elaborate and appre-
eiatye Memoir Of Hon Charles Marsh, and that
a copy be requested for the archives Of the Soei-
city.

More Danish Legends.
THE MYSTERIOUS WEDDING.

From North Seeland there comes gloomy
incident that stirs the thoughts The church
of R0eryig is situated far out toward the
sand hills by the Kattegat One evening
large ship dropped anchor out there, and was
presumed to be a Russian man-ofwar. In
the night knocking was heard at the gate of
the parsonage and several armed and masked
persons ordered the minister t. put on his &C.
eesiastical gown and accompa them out to
the church They promised good pay,
but used menaees if he denied 10 60 He
went with them. The church was lighted
unknown people were gathered, and all was
in deep silence Before the altar the bride
and bridegroom were waiting, dressed in
magnificent clothes, as if they were of high
rank, but the bride was as pale as a corpse
When the marriage ceremony was finished, a
shot was heard, and the bride lay dead be.
fore the altar. They took the corpse, and all
went away with it. The next morning the
ship had weighed anchor To this day no.
body has been able to give any explanation of
the event.
The minister who took part in It wrote
down the whole event in his Bible, which is
handed down in his family. The old church
is still standing between the sand hills at the
tossing Kattegat and the story lives in
writing and in memory.
THE RAD PRAYER
| must tell you one more church legend
There lived in Denmark, on the island Of
Falstor, n rich lady of rank, who had no
children, and her family was about to die out
So she took part of her riches, and built O
magnificent church. When it was finished
and the altar-candles lighted, she stepped up
to the altar-tabe and prayed on her knees tc
our Lord, that He would grant her, for her
pious gift, life upon earth as long as her
church was standing. Years went by. Hel
relations died, her old friends and ac
quantances, and all of the former servants oi
the manor were laid in their graves but sh,
VINO made such au evil wish, did not die
Generation upon generation became strangt
to her she did not approach anybody, anc
nobody approached her She wasted away il
long dotage, and sat abandoned and alone
her senses were blunted, she was like sleep
| ing, but not like a dead person. Every
/ Christmas Eve the life in her flashed up for
moment aud she got her voice again. Thei
she would order her people to put her in al
oak coffin, and place it in the open burying
| place of the church. The minister theI
would come on the Christmas night to her, il
order to receive her commands, She was laiC
in the coffin, and it was brought to the church
The minister came, as ordered, every Christ
mas night, through the choir up to the coffin

IHE INTERNATIONAL LAND AND LARoR
AGENCY (of which Elhu Burritt, ssthe learned
blacksmith" of Birmingham, England. is
President,) is doing good work in sending
out English servants to this country. Those
sent thus far have given perfect satisfaction,
and the agency is fast gaining favor in our
large cities. A large number of persons have
been forwarded to New York and Boston. and
several towns liz Connecticut have been sup
pied. Laborers for the farm and other out
door employment, as well as domestics for in
doors, have been forwarded, and it is the de-
sign OF the agency to assist farmers of small
means to locate themselves on our cheap
farms in this State. The agency is not spec
ulation in any sense of the word, as no one
connected with the enterprise receives any
compensation for his services, with the excep-
ton of the Secretary, F. NJ. Holmes, who
charges small fee to defray the expenses of
his Office at Birmingham. Henry Taylor of
this city is their correspondent for this State
and he has already sent forward orders for in
door servants for parties in this section Any
family afflicted with the prevailing malady of
"poor help" can be relieved by applying to Mr..
Taylor, who will give all the information re-

we are famllias with the sotks Of The mos.
distinguished artists In this country, but GER
talnly we have never seen finer portraits
IMAM those painted by Mr. Cloudman. We
wondered why we had seen so few in our own
CITY within the last few years, but remembered
that our friend had been absent much of the
time.
Mr.. Kicker, near Woodford's Corner, has a
very fine picture Of his "a portrait of young
girl, painted we believe from a small ambro-
type; and there are several others of his late
works, which are of course his best. But we
will only mention further that of Mr.. Dyer,
which we regard as the best likeness we ever
saw; and we recolect now distinctly what a
feeling of envy crept over us that we were not
sufficiently good looking to wish for copy of
ourself Mr.. ClOudman has within few
months painted two beautiful views in our own
lovely harbor, showing plainly that he can
paint a portrait of anything. The picture of
Diamond Cove, last summer, was faithful
copy of that well known place, and as a picture
won universal praise. 1t is owned, we believe.
by gentleman of Bristol, r. 1. The other,
ga Picnic at Pleasant Cove" il eoually as
fine We missed it the other day from Morri :.
sons window, and learn that Mr.. Cloudman
intends sending it to Boston. We are sorry
that it has not found a purchaser among some
OF our monied men; for both of these pictures
should have been owned in this city. We learn
mat 1t will be on exhibition for a few DAYS at
Mr: Cloudman's studio on Exchange street.
and we advisesall who have not seen it to avail
themselves of this opportunity
