The Three Ships.
BY MRS. JULIA c. r. DoRT

Is
Over the waters clear and dark
Flew, like startled bird, our bark.
All the day lopg with steady sweep
Sea-gulls followed us over the deep.
Weird and strange were the silent shores,
Rich with their wealth of buried ores;
Mighty the forests, old and gray,
With the secrets locked in their hearts away
Semblance Of castle and arch and shrine
lowered alofs in the clear sunshine;
And we watched for the wardtr, stern and grim
And the priest with his chanted prayer and hymn
Over that wonderful northern sea,
As one who sails in a dream, sailed we,
Till, when the young moon scared on high,
Nothing was round us but sea and sky.
Far in the east the pale moon swung
A or ascent dim in the azure hung;
But the sun lay low in the glowing west,
With bars of purple across his breast.
The skies were alame with the sunset glow,
The b Iows were..all aHame below;
The far horizon seemed the gate
To some mystic worlds enchanted state;
And all the air was luminous mist,
Crimson and amber and amethyst.
Their silently into that fiery sea-
Into the heart of the myste V
Three ships went sailing, one by one,
The fairest visions under the sun.
81. A. a,,,o !, tho heart of a ruby set
Where the sails that few from each mast OF Je'
While darkIy against the burning sky
streamer and pennant fioated high.
Steadily, silently, On they pressed
Into the glowing, reddening west
Until. on the far horizons fold,
They slowly raised through its gate of gold.
You think, perhaps, they were nothing more
Than schoeners laden with common ore
When Care clasped hands with grimy Toll,
And the decks were stained with earthly mol
Oh. beautiful ships, who sailed that night
Into the west from our yearning sight,
| Full we'll know that the freight ye bore
Was laden not for an earthly shore
To some far realm ye were sailing on,
Where all we have lost shall yet be won
| Ye were bearing thither a world of dreams,
Bright as that sunsets golden CLEANS;
| And hopes whose tremulous, rosy flush
| Grew fairer still in the twilight hush;
Ye were bearing hence to that mystic sphere
Thoughts DO mortal may utter here
Songs that on earth may not be sung
Words too holy for human tongue
The golden deeds that we would have done
The fadeIess vreaths that we would have Won
| And hence it was that our souls with you
| Traversed the measureless waste Of blue,
| TIL you passed under the sunset gate,
And to us a voice said, softly, "Wait!"

The se,fishness Of Public Officials.


The recent fragrant act of Winans ID
the New York Legislature, in deserving
the party and selling himself to the cor
ruptions of Tammany, has awakened pub
lie attention to the prevalent spirit of
ayarice aud cupidity. There seems to be
a class of men who, if put IN any fo-'ion.
whether state or municipal, even of the
most trifling character, care little Tor the
public good if they can only make lew
dollars for their own Golfers. If there Is
contract to be secured, in the execution
of which they can employ their friends
and make small commission. or some
perquisites that will come to their pocket,
they are ready to avail themselves OF the
Office, no matter how mental, ii they
carry out their own selfish and personal
greed for little or large amount OF
money. The public veal is of little
thought to them if they can put their
hands into the treasury.
This spirit is rapidly gaining ground
and it is time that the people were awake
to the selfishness prevailing in public life
Would that we could look around and
feel pride at the contemplation of
lofty public spirit in our officials as in
olden times. But for such evidences we
look in vain, fer any sacrifice of private
for public interest. We perceive few
liberal hands open for the promotion Of
public good and desire no return for what
they give.
The question is one of grave and mo-
mentous import. The reflections of the
whole country unite in the conclusion
that public officials are fast becoming, OF
| have become, selfish or ayarieious-a con-
clusion justified by facts which reflect
great discredit on the public men of to-
day. The fostering of this spirit Of avarice
in public servants by the people, is start
ling and anomalous, and can only be &C
counted for on the ground that wealth Ii
resorted to as placing its possessor on ar
eminence akin to that which, in mon
archial government, would be the poin
of ambition. Such has been found to b'
its effect and such is believed to be thu
moving cause of the sordid spirit which
seems to have seized the ambition of those
who seek Office, oongealing the warmes
sympathies of the heart and casting VI
eternal barriers against the access of ever,
pure and vivifying principle. Knowledg
is no longer power, and influence TO
money has crushed its power. Merit ha
ceased to be the touch-stone of gold
Honesty is no longer to ensure respec
liability, for wealth is more potent Nor
atty need raise her voice no more, TO
without wealth she is as nothing; an(
) wealth without her is wealth still

ABLY in general conversation and admir-
ing the scenery At one of the stopping
places on the route, a countryman asked
them if they could make room for him up
there. which they cheerfully did. Soon
after taking his seat, Mr.. Beecher entered
into conversation with him, and finding
that he had recently returned from Visit
to New York, and to use his own expires.
sion. had seen enough of it, asked him il
he stopped over Sunday and went to
meeting there.
He said he did, and went over to
Brooklyn to hear fellow preach, he did
not remember his name.

Died in Leicester, April Sd, 1871, Lucia NJ,
wife of Otis 81. Capron and daughter of John and
Lucy Paine, aged A years, months and days.
Seldom has so small a town as ours been so
stricken by death in the short space of ten weeks
Six, all fathers and mothers, have been called
from their families in so short time.
The last one callei was Mrs. Capron. Her de-
ed as certain at no distant day, consumption,
that unyielding foe of the human body, having
marked her as a victim. AS the roses of summer
fade, droop and die, so have We seen our sister
let CO. one after another the threads OF life, and
the bloom gra 1ually fade from her cheek. We
remember the flower which felt it fragrance in
the air; so shall we remember her whose life to
her friends and family was as the perfume Of the
rose.
Her funeral was held at the church on Thursday
the 9th. A large circle of friends were present
to drop the silent tear of sympathy for the mourn
ers, and to show their respect for the departed.
The funeral discourse was delivered by Mrs.
Fannie D wis Smith of Brandon, which for be auty
of language and sentiment We seldom hear ex-
eel ed.
To those who cannot realize the fact of immor-
tally and the close relationship existing between
the natural and the spiritual world, the discourse
would be like good seeds scattered by the way
side or upon stony places. To the mourning
friends friends it was the voice of comfort and
hope. A.E.s.

A NEW Misunderstanding more
clearly illustrates the activity of the uni
versal Yankee genius than the frequent
inventions that are brought before the
public. Of these very large proportion
originate in New England, and the re-
cords show that Vermont is we'll repre-
sented in the noble army of inventors.
One of the latest issues of the Patent
Office has been made to our townsman
Mr. Henry s. Howe, the enterprising con-
fectiouer, whose praise, as well as produc-
tions. may be truly said to be Sin every
bodys mouth" To faoilitate his business
in the ma ufacture OF confectionery, Mr..
Howe has devised an improved mold that
combines simplicity with great practical
utility. The invention consists in so con-
struoting the mold that it may be taken
10 pieces when the confectionery becomes
hard, and thas the bars or cakes can be
removed in the most perfect form, and
with the greatest facility. This is &C.
complished by constructing the mold
frame of two parallel bars, which are
united at their ends by clamps, these
being pointed like staples and easily re-
moved from their places when desired.
On the inside of these bars a series of
vertical grooves is made, those in
one bar corresponding to the grooves in
the other. Iuto these grooves metal plates
are inserted, the numerous grooves in the
bars admitting of the shifting of the plates
so as to adapt the mold to the required
size. These plates may be made of sheet
of metal bent at right angles at its ends,
and when two Of such plates are put in
position bet w. en- the bars with their bent
ends turned inward they will form
mold. The mold frame may be of any
desired length or width, and may be
formed either of wood or metal. When
tie substance in the mold becones hard
the clamps at tho ends are removed and
the contents taken out without danger of
injury. The success of this improvement
is fully demon strst.d, HI Mr.. Howe has
Aside from the superior manner in which
the work is accomplished, the great saw
ing Of labor is one of the prominent adj
vantsges of this valuable invention. The
patent was procured through the agency
of Henry P. Ssson of this town.
