Poetry.
The working Man To His Wife.


he Working Man To His Wife.
Come, Mary, throw your work aside,
And let your troubles be;
Leave care and toll and smoke awhile.
And spend an hour with me.
Veil seek the cowslip on the bank,
The primrose in the lane, HFf
And happy sights and sounds afar
Shall make us young again.
It's long, my love, since you and
Have heard the blackbird sing,
Or caught, by running brooks and woods
The glory of the spring.
Its long since you and have trod
The path where hawthorns blow
Then, Mary, fling your work aside,
And let your troubles 60.
The trees shall bend to welcome us,
The flowers shall clasp our feet,
The very bees shall hymn our praise
In murmurs soft and sweet;
The winds shall SWELL with ready voice
The chorus high and loud,
And wei forget the world, my wife,
And all the busy crowd.
A thousand things await us, love-
Blue skies and balmy air
Green fields whose very sight shall make
The heart forget its care.
Then never sigh-be glad to-day
Throw sorrow to the wind
Nor pause till we have left our ills
A summers hour behind.

the old hotel at Passumpsic last week,
Mr.. A. ]. Dexter came upon leather bag
which had been buried there, in which
there were $50 counterfeit half dollars
Most of them were corroded, aud piece
eaten out of one side. But those that
were perfect showed dates from 1927 to
1880. Mr.. Dexter's daughter first dis
covered the money, which was for time
the topic of conversation and gossip in the

remembering when certain ones there

SENATOR MORRLL.-The New York
Herald of Thursday, in an article on the
treaty says: Next, Mr.. Morrill,, of YER
mont, offered a resolution, which was
adopted, requesting the President "to far
n''h copy of all reports made by the
Non William Whiting, as Solicitor of the
war Department., upon any claims made
oy the subjects of any foreign nations for
damages in consequence of the war
against our re bellious States from 1861 to
800 And what does this mean? 1t
means, perhaps, that Mr.. Morrill, or Mr..
sumner, or both these Senators, intend to
make fight against this treaty on the
oHuSh claims against the United States,
'or Vie settIme of which it provides.
AZ all events Mr.. Morrill, wants to see the
0uHHet Of these claims, and i'll this he il
right In finding out, however, that the
e'laIogue embraces neither Canadian Fen
Ian raid claims, nor rebel cotton loan
Iaim-, nor blockade runners' claims, nor
Claims of British subjects living in the
South for losses of slaves or losses of prop
er'y Of any kind from the war, we dare
''y That the prudent Senator from YER
mont will be satisfied.

The Baptist church I'm Rutland.

We clip the following article OF local
interest from the Watchnaan DE- Reflector
"The last Sabbath of April was an un.
usually solemn day with the Baptist
Church of Rutland, vt. Rev. u. Mills,
pastor, preached on the subject OF baptism
to large and deeply interested congre.
CATION, and at the close of the sermon bap-
tized three ladies, all of them wives and
mothers, some of the first fruits of mis-
sion Sabbath school commenced one year
ago. in North Clarendon, under the aus
pices of the church, and efficiently super
| intended by brother B. w. Marshall; the
pastor holding public service in connec-
ton with the school once in two weeks.
The mission was established amid adverse
circumstances, but has received the bless
ing of the Master from the first, and is at
present in very hopeful condition, Civ
ing renewed evidence that faithful effort,
the outgrowth of earnest prayer, will be
richly rewarded. Both the "parent" and
mission" schools have organized ITEM
perance Bands of Hope" for the promotion
of the principles of total abstinence among
our children and youth; both "bands" are
in successful operation, and we'll calcu-
lated to do much good.
For many years the success of our soci-
ETY. has been seriously impeded by the
want of a more suitable house OF worship
in a more central location, and ever since
the settlement of our present pastor he
has been untiring in his efforts to bring
about this much.needed result, and now 1
have the pleasure to inform the readers
of your valuable paper interested in the
welfare of this important central position
of Western Vermont, that we have decid-
ed to ''rise and build" $4,000 has al
ready been subscribed, a central location
secured, and the foundations are now be-
ing laid. The house is TO be Romanesque
in style, built of brick with stone Dress
inss; tower and spire on one corner, and
a unique and very graceful turret oppe-
site; main auditorium, 70 by 4s feet,
with ceiling 81 feet high; recess behind
the pulpit communicating with robing
rooms below ; organ gallery and orches-
ira over the front vestibule, reached by a |
flight of stairs in main tower.
The first and basement story will be
high and we'll lighted, conveniently di-
vided into lecture-room, ladies' parlor,
pastors study, infant school-room, and
Bible class rooms. Under the rear of the
building is endorsement 4S by 20 feet,
for steam boiler, coal room, ladies' kitch-
an, etc. The designs, which are very
fine indeed, are by Rutland's favorite
J. R. Randall, Esq. The esti-
mated cost of the house when finished is
S25, 900, and will be Immediately pushed
by judiciously selected Build
ing Committee.
must not forget to state that our peo-
pie are gratefully unanimous in this i'm
portant enterprise, and the children of
our Sabbath schools contribute at least
one brick each every Sabbath; but in
stead of growing weary in sacrifice and
well doing, in response to an appeal in
behalf of the Bible Union our little busy
workers raised in one week $117.15. May
God bless them and crown them with |
success, and save them by His grace.

COURT DECIsION.-A case was decided
in the Court of Common Pleas at Rome,
N. Y, last week, which is of considerable
interest to NJ any in Vermont, who have
unwittingly signed notes in blank to be
filled up an6. disposed of by rascally patent
right agents. A Mr.. Wells signed what
he suppos ed was bond to bind an agree
ment whereby he was to become the agent
for the s. lie of patent fork made by par
ties in Lee, N. Y, but in fact signed q
note Tor 5000, which the patent right
party disposed of to Mr.. Cook, the plain
tiff, who claimed to be An innocent hol-
der, and has some $12 900 in similar notes,
acc ording to bis affidavit produc ed on this
trial. The jury returned a verdi ct for the
defendant with costs.

UNCHAsTITY.-The last New York
Legislature passed an act to prove redress
for words imputing unchastity to fe-
male, which is in full as follows:
An action may be maintained by fe-
male, whether married or single, to re-
cover damages for words hereafter spoken
imputing unchastity to her, and it shall
be necessary to allege or prove special
damages in order to maintain such action.
In such actions a MARI ed woman may sue
alone, and any recovery therein shall be
her sole and separate property.
This is wholesome law for the thous.
ands of slanderers whose vile tongues are
always on the alert for scandal.
