SUMNER PLAY.-Nothing can be more crue
and nothing more foolish than to place children
where they must be dressed every day IN fresh
and fashionable clothes, and their freedom &c
NAV curtailed for the sake ofappearances Wha'
childhood needs is perfect freedom among the
things of nature-freedom to romp, to make
mnd MES. to leap fences, to row, to hsh, to
climb trees, to chase butterflies, to gather wild,
flowers, to live out of doors from morning uoll
night, and to do all those things that innocent
and healthy childhood delights in, in cheap
strong clothes provided for the purpose. Exactly
that which childhood needs, manhood and wo-
manhood need-pertcct liberty and perfect care
lessueSs. SO, whether the dwcer by the sea
20 inland for his sumner play, or the resident
ofthe inland city go to the sea- he should seek
some spot unvisted by those devoted to fash
iouable display, and pass his time in unrestrlct-
ed communion with nature, and in those pur-
suits and amusements which, without let or hin.
drance, perform the Office of recreation. DR.. +.

BALLooNlNG. "A letter has been written by
Professor Henry, chief Of the Smithsonian To-
sttution, Washington, 10 reply to inquiries by
the Graphic Publishing Company OF New DIRK,
and Professor Wise, the aeronaut, as to the
proposed trans Atlantic ballooniog scheme.
Prof. Henry thinks while it may not succeed,
the plan as described is not incompatible with
the laws Of nature, but that it would be better
to make an experimental trip across the CONT
nent first, for though there would not be as
many adverse currents on the ocean as the
land. it would encounter the risk Of meeting a
cyclnuc, which might drive it from its course,
against which there would be no remedy except
ia mounting to the upper ether. Prof. Wise
holds the opinion that hi. balloon will have gas
enough to surmount the cyclone regions, aud
means to make the attempt, which he hopes to
accomplish in seventy hours. He says ne would
rather fall into the ocean than upon the Rocky
Mountains in some desert place But. Sun.

Charged With Attempted En-
ccnGIary.

John Gavagan was arraigned be-
fore Justice Turnbull on Friday
last, on charge of attempt to cause
the Congregational Church to be
burned, in April, 1872, when Rody
Kennedy, the witness on the part
of the prosecution testified as fol-
lows:
Twas boarding at John GavaSRn's
at this time, and Gavagan called me
into the barroom, turned the key in
the door, and gave me a drink and
said, 81 want you to do one thing
for me-" | asked him to tell me
what it was. lie said he wanted
me to set fire to either the red or
brown church mot sure whether he
used the word red or brown.) He
said he would pay me well for it..
asked him what church he meant,
and he said it was the church by
McDade's livery stable, above Pau
lette Cicero's. Some one rapping
at the door caused the conversation
to cease for the time, and | went
out into the mems sitting room.
After Gavagan got through waiting
upon those who had got i'm the bar
room, Gavagan came to me and said
that / mnst not say anything about
what we were talking about, and
said all right. In the afternoon,
about three OF four o'clock he called
me into the barroom again and
locked the door, and asked me If /
would have something to drink and
said yes. He then said that he
wanted me that night to go and set
fire to the church, pulled q roll of
bills out of his pocket and said that
there was n thousand dollars that he
would give me to have tho church
burned down, and if that wouldn't

ed me if l would do it that night ;
said he would furnish me with oil,
matches and revolver; said | could
go to bed and if did not wake up
he would come and call me. said
all right. i went to bed Mt the us
ual time, about ten or half past ten,
and did not wake up. John Gava-
gan came up about half past one
o'clock to my room, undressed,
woke me up, and told me to get up.
He had no light. | got up and
came down stairs, put on my boots,
coat and hat, and Gavagan handed
me a bottle of oil, n handful OF
matches and n revolver, and asked
me if | didn't want some shavings.
| said no. He told me to go along
now, and not be long about it; said
that he would leave the door open
so that l could como in and go to
bed. | put the bottle of coal oil,
matches, and revolver in my pocket,
and started up towards McDade's.
| went up as far as the white church
on the same street that Gavagan
lived on, thought the thing over,
and thought | had no right to do
what ! was sent to do, that | had
never done the like before, and
would not have thought of doing it
if had not been sent out to do it
and / turned around and came back
as far as Gavagan's, and there were
three or four piles of wood that
stood in the street by Gavagan's
and threw the bottle Of coal oil
between the piles of wood, and then
went to bed. After breakfast next
morning, Gavagan came to me and
asked "what was the matter last
night that | did not set fire to the
church" / told him that they were
watching it. He asked me if
would do it the next night, and
told him they were watching it anC
] would have nothing more to dc
with it. / gave him back his revol
yer.
No testimony was offered on thu
part of the defense, and Gavagal
was held to appear at the next tern
of the Circuit Court, in the sum o
$4,000 bail. Kennedy was ais,
held in the sum of $1,000 bail, o
appear as o witness on the part o.
the prosecution.

REcEpTIoN.-The reception at
the Fletcher House last Saturday
evening, given to the railroad OK
cursionists was success and very
pleasant affair. IT was not largely
attended but was a decidedly pleas
ent gathering. The short time TO
give notice was TO its disadvantage,
and a general notice had to be Civ
en- instead Of personal invitations.
The invitation was intended to be
to all who felt themselves interest
ed, and lack Of time was alone the
cause for not extending personal
invitations.

did they descend that glass in win

of the city. The hail lasted but a
