A New Club.

This is an age of organization, and we
hear of all kinds of lodges, clubs, gran
ges and societies, organized for all pur-
poses and objects and for no purpose at
all, and it has been for some time a
problem to us why the corner loafers
in our large villages did not organize a
society for self-protection and mutual
Improvement in their calling, and we
hail as an auspicious sign of progress the
following account of such a society in
Brooklyn, which we clip from an ex-
change, and commend it to the conside-
ration of the leading corner loafers of
this and other towns afflicted by them:
One of the funniest clubs organized
holds nightly meetings in the Sixth ward
of Brooklyn. 1t is composed strictly of
impecuniOus young men, of the corner
loafers and sidewalk-lodging order, who
are known to their aggrieved neighbors,
in defiance of orthography, as the
''Wakeful Watchers. In addition to
the usual officers are three E'sc0uts, ;"
the most juvenile and astute the
band. Their jackal duty is to CLEAN the
earliest intelligence of wakes, which are
attended with great sympathy and guZ-
zling powers by the entire Association,
in detachments, whose religious duty
ends by their getting as ''full,' as posi-
bic on the most economical principles.
The novelty and audacity of the plan
have resulted in quite a success. Its
morality and educating tendencies are
apparent
Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1873-07-24
written for the Herald
Cheese-TEaEing Om Sunday.

In an article on ''The Fourth Com
mandment and its Modern Violation, y
read before recent meeting of the Min
isterial Association of the Burlington
District, TroyConference, NJ. E. Church,
held at Fairhaven, the essayist took the
position that cheese-making on Sunday
was one of those violations, and the SEN
timent of the essay was generally ap-
proved by the meeting.
Now, while | do not endorse all that
the writer of that article endeavors to
maintain, do like the following sugges-
tions for avoiding the apparent necessity
of labor on the Sabbath, viz: Let the
Saturday nights and Sunday mornings
milk be set for butter; or let the curd be
s'run up" Saturday nights, and the Sun
dav mornings milk be set alone for
cream. These methods have been prac-
ticed with the most satisfactory results
in some large dairies and can there be
any reason why farmers generally may
not adopt these plans, unless we except
lew SaDDalnS III tHe very wa liioeO oe1'7, oe1'7oh
of the year? and think there is no need
of that, as some, with small diaries,
make no cheese at all, but make butter
throughout the entire season.
Now the question with farmers, anc
all other hard working people, should be,
not how much work may | do on the
Sabbath, but how much work must do
ssW ater falling day by day wears tho
hardest rock away and the daily labor
of making cheese, with no intermission
even on Sunday, wears upon the strong
est physical constitutions.
Farmers and their wives have to labor
hard enough through the week without
being obliged to &C, through with tn
Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1873-07-24

on the Sabbath; and, beside this, there
is moral effect which is no less bane-
full than the physical one. ''God blessed
the seventh day and sanctified it," that
is ''he set it apart for holy, sacred, and
religious use' but how very small a part
of it do we make more sacred than any
other day, when we deprive ourselves of
Gods appointed means of grace by la
boring on the Sabbath as we have done
all through the week!
A widow lady says she has ''made
cheese from the milk of twenty-five
COWS for years." and she has ''never
made one on Sunday, and there is no
need of it," She adopted, long go, the
above mentioned plan, and she has but
ter for her own use and to sell, SO that
she is not always in a ''pinch" for money,
and she can rest on the seventh day.
Now, farmers, let us remember" the
commandment is not ''six days shalt
thou labor and do all thy work, and
make cheese on the seventh" but "The
seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord,
in it thou shalt not do any work, etc.

The New York Herald has for long
time worn the belt for sensational jour
nalism. They have sent their commits
sionres, as they call their reporters, all
over the world When the war in Cuba
assumed proportions to attract attention,
the HeraM started their commissioner,
O'Kelley, to get into arrest and create
sensation with the Spanish authorities,
and the deeper O'Kelley could get into
trouble the better his employers liked it.
Their Commissioner Stanley made a
good thing in finding Livingstone among
the iungles in Africa, and to cap all
they sent a commissioner up in bal
loon, and startled their numerous throng
of readers with black letter heads, an
nouncing that Science and Literature
were dangling between the earth and
the heavens But it would appear that
in this the Herald Overreached them
selves, for they started rivalry. Re
porters were scarce who were willing to
be beheaded by a Spanish inquisition,
or wished to be roasted and eaten by
the black cannibals of Central Africa;
but there were plenty of professional
balloonists who were anxious to do that
kind of service, and the GrGph5c goes
for them.
One Professor Wise was found who
could do anything. The Grdph5c fur
nishes him with four thousand three
hundred and sixteen yards of unbleached
sheeting, gives him the command OF
score of pretty sewing girls, under the
supervision of a woman who has been
making balloons for twenty years, and
they 60 to work to sew up one hundred
and two seams, one hundred and seventy
two feet long, with third added for trans
verse scanning, giving about eight miles of
solid seam work; and when this is all
done a representative of the Graphic will
step aboard basket, and with ever so
many thousand feet of hydrogen gas, as
motive power, will start with the pro-
fessor on trip across the Atlantic. The
| destination of this aerlel trip is not an
nounced but the Graphic will send it to
Dublin, st. Petersburg, the moon or
Egypt, as shall be deemed most feasible
when the ponderous machine is ready to
rise, and all we can do is to open our
mouth, cape, and say, what oft. We
should preferto be an O'Kelly and face
the burly Captain-General of Cuba in all
his pomp and majesty. a

calmly discussed from the standpoint of
a broad and catholic love of country.
Sectional partizanship and religious isms
should be forever discovered from the
subject of public education Where the
general duties and responsibilities of
citizens are alike, as in this country,
and where they create public sentiment,
make and execute the laws, it seems to
be of the utmost importance that they
should be, not only all educated, but ed
ucated under circumstances as free as
possible from all surroundings antagonis-
tic to free republican institutions.
