the nine months term, when he went in.
to the Quartermaster's department in the

where he has since resided. For some

Iae EARLY Days OF I'm. L. Marcy

!
4 correspondents of the Liberal
Christian tells this story about William
L. Marcy:
II spent a day of my vacation at
Charlton, Mass. Bill Marcy was ma
tive of this ncighborlood, ard grew M
to be wild and heady youth. He was
thought BY his parents and by all the
neighbors TO be the worst boy they
knew. One winter lie succeeded, in
conjunction with kindred spirits, il
busting the teacher from the district
school. Salem Towne, then young
man, was summoned as the iittest per-
son 20 take charge OF these, unrnly
youth and complete the term. Every
body thought the new teacher would
certainly have trouble with Bill Marcy.
But the trouble did not come. The
first day had not passed before Mr.
Towne had discovered in his pupil an
element Of real good, aad told him so.
This, to the boy, was most UNUSUAL
acknowledgement and it touched his
heart. Some one had seen good III him.
He was, then, capable OF better things,
and he was determined to make the
endcavor. 1t WAS she turning point of
his life.
''Such was his conduct and such his
progress in study that his teacacr adj
vised him to go on and prepare himself
for college. Is was a great surprise to
his parents, but at the urgent solicita-
ton OF Mr. Towne they gaze their con-
sent, and lac was placed under the in
struction Of a clergynen in the vicinity
Of his home. At length he entered col
lege, and passed through the course
with great success, justifying at every
step the confidence and hope of his
best friend. In subsequent life he rose
from one degree Of eniuence aud use
fitness to another, until at last the
whole world was familiar with the
name and fame of William L. Marcy
'Long years after he hai left III;
school day liaunts, and wien he had
GENE to deserved eminence, l.e visited
Boston, and was the guest Of the theI
Governor Of the old Bay State
Among the distinguished men wht
were invited to meet him was Genera
| Salem Towne. When the Governor
saw Marcy and Towue :,rect each 9th
er as old friends, he very naturally ex.
pressed a pleasurable surprise thai
they knew each OTHER so well. 'Why,
said Marcy, that is the man that made
me. When ] was a boy every body was
against me. None-no, not even my
own father or mothcr-saw any good
in me. He was the first who believed
in me, told me- what / might become
and helped me on in life at that crit
cal .juncture. Whatever of merit Oh
distinction / have since attained TO ]
owe to him more than to any Other
living person."

Tie latest English mails bring m
act in reference to boiler explosions
which has passed second reading in
the House of Commons, but by the al
joHrnment oftiiat body has been post
poned for consideration ut the next
session. This bill contains several I'M
poFtant provisions and proposes an
alteration of the law in reference to
the respective responsibilities Of the
owner and ti.e servant in charge Of the
boiler. st present, it is stated, that
when . boiler exrlodes in England and
destroys life and property, the burden
lies with the injured persons and their
representative Of proving that the
boiler WAS out of repair, or defective,
or carelesSly managed. The sufferers
By an explosion must therefore prove
afirnatively that the boiler was de-
feetive and badly managed, and also
chat The owner vas aware OF the fact.
a verdict of accidental death from %
coronef's jury, it is said, viii practi-
cally settle the question, and relieve
the owner of the boiler. The bill be-
fore the English House of Commons,
however, was drawn mp on the bypo-
thesis that steam boilers can lie so
constructed aud worked as to he per-
tectly safe, and that it is the duty If
the owner to exercise intelligent care,
inspection and supervision over the
apparatus, and that fhe fails to asse;-
tain exactly the condition of his boil.
ers by the employment Of The re-
qnisite professional advice and assis-
lance he must I've considered RESPONSE
BILE for the results of any omission to
perform his entire duty. The law
further holds that, as the owner, by
himself and servant, is in the posses
sion of the facts as to the condition OF
tile boiler, in the event OF an explosion
the burden sl;all rest upon him Of
proving the efficiency of such steam
boiler, and of the valves, gagues and
equipments. If the owner fails to
prose that he has performed his duty
he is to be held responsible for Ill
damages to person and property. The
verdict OF nobody to blame' has be
come so common that the Easlisi, peo
pie are trying what remedy can be APP
| piled through Parliamert.

The LAWYERS SUBSTITUTE
In 1863 a fat man rushed into the
Office of a we'll known New Hamp-
shire lawyer, and told him he was
drafted. "The deuce you are"
said the lawyer. at must be q
strong man that could draft a man
of your size" "Tell, am drafted
and want you to get me OFF. I'll
pay well for it," every WE'LL" and
they proceeded to the office of the
Provost Marshal "Herc," said the
lawyer, i've got yoE a substitute"
"He won't do,' said the Marshal.
"He's too fat and wlleczy; he can't
march," Cannot you just take
him for me- said the lawyer. "NO"
said the Marshal, It's no use l do
not want him" This was just
What the lawyer wanted. '.He
wont 90, ell % "No, he aront!"
"Ne ell, then, scratch his name off
the list; for he is drafted, and came
here with nc to be exempted ~
The Marshal Saw they had proved
too much for him, and without an
other word ordered the mars ex-
emption papers.

Trust What Time Has Sanctioned.

The maxim that the voice ofthe peo.
pie is the voice of the divinity, may in
some cases, be open to doubt, hut the
testimony of honest and enlightened
witnesses extending through series Of
years, and all to the same purport, is
worthy of credence, admit of no ques-
ton. Upon such testimony the rcputa-
ton of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters rs
an antidoto ana cure for many ailments
lis based. During the tweaty years
that it has been before the world, in
Vulnerable preparations intended to
compete with it, have gone up like
rockets, and come down the eytinguish-
cd sticks. Meanwhile the progress of
that Incompatible tonic has been swift
and steady-always upward and on
ward like the eagles flight. Its intro
duction produced a revolution in tlera-
peutics, and il proved to be one OF
those salutary revolutions that cannot
go backwards. To-day Hostetter's
Bittcrs is one of the most popular
remedies in christendom, and COM
mands larger sale than any other
medicinal preparation, domestic Or i'm
ported, on this side of the Atlantic.
As cure for dyspepsia, bilious disor-
dcrs, nervous affections, general de-
bility. and as a preventive of epidemic
fevers, it takes precedence of every
other remedy. This fact should teach
the ambitious country dealers who en-.
deavor to foist their local abortions or
the public in its stead, how futile thei
small attempts TO cajole the commnnit,
must necessarily he. Where the gam,
fish have failed there is no chance 70
