He WILL SwEAR.-A story is told of
two ministers of Newport, the favorite New
England summer resort, which is too good
to be lost. Rev. DR.. r. of the Trinitarian
Congregational church, and Rev. Mr.. b.
of the Unitarian, being ON the best of terms,
were one day invited to dine at the house
of a mutual friend Mr.. b., for some rea-
son, failed TO come, and some one at the ta-
BILE took occasion 10 remark upon his ex-
cellent qualities. "Yes,' said the Doctor,
"he is a very fine man but isn't it a pity
he will swear ~ "Mr. b. swear y was
the general exclamation from all sides.
"Mr. b. is a very fine man." persisted the
Doctor, "but | am sorry TO say he some
times swears." Being pressed for an ex-
PLANTATION, he finally yielded. Some time
before the two had been out fishing togeth-
er, and as the Doctor stood on one rock, he
heard some conversation between Mr.. b.
and fisherman, who were at little dis
tance on another. The fisherman said, "Ive
got id good bite" $50 hare l." an
swered Mr.. Is. "You see," persisted the
Doctor, "that though Mr.. b. is a very fine
man, he will swear"

SUMMERS LAST SPEECH.-Space is de-
MED TO us to reproduce this elaborate re-
capitulation of Mr.. Summers complaints
against the President but he sums up his
case as follows:
Reconstruction is now complete. Every
State is represented in the Senate, and
every district is represented In the House
of Representatives. Every Senator and
every Representative is in his place. There
are no vacant seats in either chamber, and
among the members are fellow-citizens of
the African race. And amnesty nearly
universally has been adopted. In this
condition of things 1 find new reason for
change. The present incumbent knows
little of our frame of government. By
military education and military genius he
represents the idea of force nor is he any
exception to the rule of his profession,
which appreciates only slightly govern
ment that is not arbitrary. The time for
the soldier has passed, especially when his
renewed power would once more remind
fellow-citizens of their defeat. Victory
over fellow citizens should be known only
in the rights it assures nor should it be
flaunted in the face of the vanquished. 1t
should not be inscribed on regimental coll
ors, or portrayed in pictures at the Nation
al Capitol. But the present incumbent is a
regmental color with the forbidden in
scription ; he is picture in the National
Capital recalling victories over fellow-citi-
zens. 1t is doubtful if such presence can
promote true reconciliation. Friendship

ExTRAoRDINARY NEWS FROM THE
STARs.-Dr. Huggins, the eminent English
spectroscoplst, by uniting spectroscoplc ap-
pliances with fine telescope which has
been placed at his disposal by the Royal
Astronomical Society, in London, has made
remarkable discoveries. He finds that ma
ny of the stars are travelling far more
swiftly than has been supposed. Sirius is
receding from the earth at a rate exceeding
twenty miles a second. Arcturus is travel
ing toward us at rate of some fifty miles
a second. DIR. Higgins can trace atenden-
cy among the stars in one part Of the heav-
ems to approach the earth, while the stars
In the opposite part Of the heavens are re-
ceding from MS; and the stars which are
approaching lic ON that side of the heav-
an. toward which Herschel long since
tauybt ms that the sun Is travelling. But
ibere are stars not obeying this simple
law and among these DIR. Higgins recog-
nIzes instances of that community of mo
tIon 10 which modern student Of the stars
has given the name star-drift. 1t happens
that one Of the most remarkable of these
instances relates to five well-known stars
known TO astronomers as Beta, Gamma,
Delta, Epsilon. and zeta, of the Great Bear,
all ofwhich are drifting bodily through
space and receding from the earth at the
rate of about thirty miles per second.

Father and son, George II. Richards

Father and son, George II. Richards,
were united at Brownington, the other day,
ailer a separation of fifty-three years.
"A story is told of clergyman in a
Massachusetts town who forgot his notes
on Sabbath morning, and as 1t was too
late to send ior them, he said to his audi
ence, by way of apology, that this morning
he should have to depend upon the Lord
for what he might say, but in the afternoon
he would come better prepared.
The old elm tree under which WASH
ington took command OF the armies of the
United States is still standing in Cambridge,

cient trunk and a granite monument be-
meath Its branches, but 1t is beginning to
show the effects of old age. Last week one
Of its largest branches, measuring upwards
of thirty feet in length and foot in diam

tree will soon disappear with other relics of

HYDRoPHoDIA.-Dr Nathan r. Smith,
OF Baltimore, says that he has In the course
of fifty years. practice treated many cases
of bites by rabd dogs, and always with
success if called upon within three days
after the bite. His method OF treatment is
to instantly wash the wound again and
again with soap and water, and apply to it
a cylindrical piece of caustic potash cut in
the shape of pencil point. This should
be held in the wound firmly for fifteen
minutes. Amer the application of the caus-
tic the wound should be poulticed with
bread and milk for two days, and then
dressed with a simple salve. A mere
scratch is more dangerous than a deep
wound, as in the latter case the flow of
blood is apt to carry out the poison with 1t.

Fishing I'm IeOckcastle River.

AZ this season Of the year, and from now
until the 18th Of May, fishing in Rockcas,le
river Is fine sport indeed. Of coursc, the same
fish cannot beexpocied To bite at this time, but
"rcd horss, "suckcr. and such fish as delight
in a"baiied" place, can be caught by the dozen.
The plan is 10 take about a gallon Of half
cooked corn meal, and roll il up in ball. about
as big as your fist and throw il out in the
stream from the bank, and for about twenty
fee, therefrom, in different places, the evening
before you 20 fishing. The next morning,
early, 60 with several poles Sc, supplied with
some large angle worms and, our word for it,
you will be amply paid for your pains Try it
once and see. At the terminus OF the Knox
willie branch Of the Louisville and Nashville
railroad at Livingston, is the point on this
river which We recommend to sportsmen
Parties at Louisville may take the morning
train and arrive at Livingston in time to "bait
a hole" and the next morning, early, il they
will go to that place EARNED and equipped"
as We have directed, they can have as fine
sport Of this kind as they ever enjoyed any

Religious Folly.

We clip the following from the New York,
Tribune We are opposed to putting God in
the Constitution" any more than he is already
II smacks too much Of that miserable spirit Of
puritanism and the Pilgrim Fathers. Too
much Of that same spirit which burned people
as witches 1t is opposed, also, to the liberal
spirit Of our laws az a nation. The constitu-
ton has been tinkered and botched too much
already.
II Is just as we supposed. The very
rumor Of a movement to put Christianity into
the United States Constitution, specifically,
while itisalready there in spirit has aroused the
jews Of Maryland, and the District of Column
tia, who protest against the plan, "ss revolu-
tionary and antagonistic to The broad and lib
eral spirit Of our institutions" Its somewhat
doubtful whether any discussion Of the matte
will become necessary; but we take the occa-
sion to protest in advance against denuncis-
ton as Atheists, and In6dels, and Unbelievers,
Of those who may doubt the expediency Of any
religious pronunciamento by the Federal Gov
eminent. We claimed from the start that dis
trust Of such proceeding is quite compatible
with profound veneration for the essential
truths Of the Christian seligion.
