Again our interesting couple %alighted, and elbow

search OF a man of God. They too believed the
groves were Gods first temples, and now they were
ready to rear Him an Altar. Nevertheless the
sacrifice to be offered, differed slightly from that
of Abrahams, yet without reluctance they offered
the sacrifice they had brought. At length they
found tn q object of their search, but who most
o bediently refused on the plea twould create too
great a rensation, to perform n marriage In the
grove. Not wishing however to be bafled 'thusly'
they sought until they found another who don

DEATHS.


IT'S but a few months since Mrs. MARY F.. wife
of H. L. ROBINS, of this place died, after having
been married two short years, leaving her kind
and loving husband with an infant daughter but
q few days old-yet fondIy hoping that her dar-
ling would live to grow up to womanhood, under
loving care and nurture of its grandma, Mrs. ]. X
Robins. and soothe the lonely pathway OF a doting
5ather. But providence willed otherwise, for on
Tuesday evening, Sept. Eth inst, LITTLE Mel
LIZ, died suddenly, of Cholera Infantum, and that
too, before the arrival of Its father. Leaving the
angelic remains to be brought hither from Seven
Mile o.; the home of its adoption, to be consigned
to the new made Srave beside the mother. After a
very appropriate ser on ut the VI. f. Church, by
the Rev. Smith, and it being the first funeral ser
mon he ever preached aud his first sermon on this
circuit, the effort was successful and left q fsvora-
BILE and doubtless lasting impression upon the Con-
gregatiom.

Beside vour mother, dear.
And DER thy tiny grave, Nellie,

Salisbury.

The Congregational church at Sails
bury village, which has been undergoing
thorough repairs of late, was re-dedicat
ed on Tuesday, 9TH inst. The introduc-
tory services were conducted by Rev. NJ.
L. Severance of Orwell. Sermon by
President Kitchel, DID, of Middlebury
College, and the dedicatory prayer by
Rev. H. F. Leavitt. The day was very
favorable, and a good audience seemed
to appreciate the occasion.
Mr. Utley of the junior class of Mid
dlebury College, has supplied the desk
for the past two years, and the present
repairs on the church are due, largely,
to his efforts There have been about
81, 800 expended on the house, and it is
now a very neat and pleasant place of
worship. In room of the old box pull
pit, with its ugly settee, there is neat
platform and tasteful desk of modern
style, with chairs to match. The whole
house is newly carpeted and uniformly
upholstered and papered, in imitation of
fresco work A beautiful chandelier,
with pulpit and side lights, the gift of
Mr.. Utley, are not among the least of
the attractions. At the close of the
ScIIlOu MI. u gave al iuIClGSLIIlS
statement of the work, how it began,
how it progressed, and how it was ac-
complished, touching upon the state of
feeling in the community, where it
seems pretty much all ''the people had
a mind to work, and closing with the
state of the finances. He reported a
debt of about $3.50, which they wanted
to see annihilated before the dedicatory
prayer. He proposed that it be divided
into shares of one dollar each, and call
ed on the audience to subscribe for stock.
Whereupon Judge H. E. Weeks volun-
teered twenty-five shares. He was fol-
lowed by others, moving in rapid sue
cession to the tune of ten shares and
and five shares, until in few minutes
the debt was cancelled, and the audience
were requested to stop pouring in, lest
they should have a too tempting and
enviOus treasury. The whole movement
shows what people can do who have
a MIND to cork.
A very interesting meeting was held
in the evening, conducted by Mr.. Utley,
and assisted by Rev. NJ. L. Severance,
in place of Mr.. Bacon of Shoreham.
who was expected to be present. The
choir were in their places, with a prepa-
ration appropriate to the occasion.

Ole Bull's Concert.

Ole Bull has come and gone, and, not
withstanding the announcement OF MS
expected return to America in three
years, we have probably seen and heard
him for the last time. All who heard
him, Thursday night, must have seen
that the Master is the Master still.
Whether he improves on perfection, II
such were possible, or whether we fail
to realize how perfect is the music he
invokes, so that its every repetition is
surprise and fresh delight, who OF us can
tell Who cares to decide so long as
every motion of that magic bow is not
only perfect grace but unalloyed pleas
ure. Ole Bulls soul appears to be with
his violin. That is his faithful friend
and most Obedient servant that in Won
derful tones tells its Masters story and
the sympathies and passions of his heart;
and it is this that gives his music such
power over the nearer. Yet nothing is
sacrificed to expression, every stroke
and every tone is precision itself. This
perfect accuracy is sometimes overlook
ed by the nearer in listening to those
passages which appeal directly to the
heart, but, after all this accuracy is one
great element of their peculiar power.
When he turns to lighter strains and
throws out from the ever responsive
strings quick and joyous tones, is not
every tone round and complete? There
is nothing wanting, nothing neglected.
How much better than applause was
the breathless silence of the house The
round of applause that followed was not
an empty compliment. And here word
in reference to encores. They are SIM
ply an outrage and an imposition. They
are simply attempts to obtain twice what
YOU paw fora demand for more than

Two Characters.

Twin drops together fall from heaven,
And strike upon farmers roof;
Sundering they run, till one, aloof,
To the Atlantic deep is given:
And one to the Pacific rolls.
So to a far and alien sky,
Two infants from one cradle ny,
With different birth-mark on their souls.
We meet him in his cordial look
We see and feel anew sun rise,
Which sends an added glow to skies
Whence sorrow half the splendor took.
The cloud-racks hold a brighter gold,
New perfume wings the bithsome breeze; ;
And even in blacklist clouds, he sees
The lining which they shall unfold.
AS turns the sunflower to her god,
Our spirit in his smile expands,
And loosens round it all the bands
Which held us captive to the sod.
Our better angel seems to plead
For virtues wintry skies had sealed;
The violet goodness stands revealed,
Which thought itself a common weed.
He puts life in everything
In Hope, in Faith, and last in us;
And glittering in the sky we swing
The sword he makes victorious.
The others eye diminiShcS
The world, which it can darken too,
Less sweet the heavens discouraged blue.
And shadow all around US lies.
His owl-like wish proclaims the night,
Even where the Imperial splendor smiles.
His look the innocent joy detiles,
Which blackens in untimely blight.
He sees this world n whstling ball,
Sent spinning on through cheerless space
And life to man an empty chase
For doubtful good, if good at ALL
His supine spirit shames the brutcs,
Who circle grateful through their days.
His eye on mirth can look disgrace,
And make the evil it imputes.
There sits an ever hooking sprite,
Whose SWifteSt comment Is diSpraiSe;
Who by a glance the heart betrays,
And sullies with stain the light.
He dwarfs this fair romantic earth
To a shop counter, where the shares
Enchantment offers lose their worth,
And spleen sees always gaining hers.
How though his talk the fluffy air
Thickens, where spindles ring in rows;
The belted wheel, which near him glows,
Is scarce of vital warmth more bare.
We hear the hum of swarming towns;
Crash through their streets the iron
trains!
What matter wood or metal gains
If he his youthful dreams renounce.
God help them both Impartial love
hall couch the blindness, nor condemn
The faulty eyS: for both of them
One perfect sight in realms above.
