Private dispatches received here from

that events may be precipitated at any

The appeal was signed by republican
leaders whose position, it is said, enti-

THE Congress of the Internationals
lately held at Geneva, in Switzerland,
settled one question which has for long
time been commented upon by writers
on both sides of the water, and that was
the impracticability of a general strike
at given time throughout the world.
All the members conceded that such a
strike would be equivalent to social
revolution, and that the impossibility of
organizing the masses sufficiently to in
sure anything like success rendered the
whole scheme impracticable, and SO

assured, are in much better condition, and
they are beginning to retire the loan GER

Gates has nearly ceased, and, as the mar

no likelihood of the continuance of the

is cheering, aud while last week closed

The Brandon Fire.
A STATEMENT or FACTS.

Having this day seen an article in the
Rutland Globe, unjHstly charging the
Brandon fire company with neglect of
duty in not playing upon Simond's
Block at the time of the fire, Saturday
night, and carrying the idea that their
efforts were all made in other directions,
allowing the block to burn if il would;
now we consider this unfair and dishon-
orable in the extreme, for the fire com
pany worked with untiring energy to
prevent the spread of fire in all direc-
tons, and when asked to play upon the
block, the Chief Engineer said it would
be impossible to throw a stream as high
as the burning cornice, but would try,
and did so, which demonstrated the fact
that they could not reach it. Then they
went back to the hollow, where they did
good service in saving the mill, Briggs
shop and the foundry.
We believe (and we speak the minds
of our best citizens) that the fire COM
pany and everyone did all in their power
TO prevent the spread of the confagra-
ton, and, instead of censure, they are
entitled TO great praise.

A Sar6ine Story

In one of the cities of New Hamp-
shire, some years since, a man
named H-y was elected Mayor,
and very important he thought his
position. During his term of Office
a fire company sent word that they
should visit the city and remain
several days. The Mayor called a
meeting of the City Council to see
what should be done toward enter
tanning the fremen. He wanted to
show the hospitality of the city in
its most munificent form, and pro-
posed that a collation. should be
given to the strangers.
"And what" asked one Of the
Aldermen, " do you propose to put
on the table for the collation. ~
1--WE will give them," said his
Honor, in reply, shot coffee and sar-
dimes"
One of the Council thought that
sardincs and hot coffee were hardly
up to the mark for the hungry fire
men.
/" / know better" said the Mayor
in an angry tone. "Sardines are
hearty, and win be just what the
men need.
Perhaps" said an Alderman,
"his Honor does not know what sar-
dimes are"
The Mayor sprang to his feet,
angry all over.
a know" he shouted, "what sNr-
dimes are os well as you do, or any
other member of the board. I've
eaten enough of them in my life
they are easily prepared. JUS
take two pieces of bread and put q
piece Of ham between them, and
then your sardine is made"
His Honor sat down amid a roar
oflaughter. He'd got things, such
as sardines and sandwiches, kinder
mixed up in his head.

Some Remarks on Beauty.

Men and women make their own
beauty of their own ugliness. Lord
Lytton speaks, in one of his novels
Of a man "who was uglier than he
had any business to be-" and if he
could but read it, every human be-
ing carries his life in his face, and
is good looking OF the reverse, as
that life has been good or evil. On
our features the fine chisel of
thought and emotion are constantly
at work, Beauty is not the monop-
oily of blooming young men and
white and pink maidens. There is
a slow growing beauty that only
comes TO perfection in old age.
Grace belongs to no period of life,
and goodness improves the longer
it exists. We have seen sweeter
smiles from the lip of 20 than from
g lip of II. There is the beauty of
youth and the beauty of holiness
@ beauty much more seldom met,
and more frequently found in the
by the fire with grand
children around his knees than in
the ballroom or promenade. Hus-
band and wife who have fought the
world side by side-who have made
common stock of joy and sorrow,
and age together-are not unfre-
quently found curiously alike in
personal appearance, and in pitch
and tone of voice-just as twin
pebbles on the beach, exposed to
The same tidal influence, are each
others second self. He has gained
l feminine something which brings
lis manhood into full relief. She
las gained q masculine something
which acts as foil to her woman
mood.

Remedy for Trouble.

If misfortune hits you hard, hit
something else hard, pitch into
something with will. There's
nothing like good, solid absorbing
work to cure trouble. If you have
met with losses you don't want TO
lie awake nights thinking about
them. You want sweet, sound
sleep, and to eat your dinner with
an appetite. But you can't unless
you work. If you say you don't
feel like work, and go around all day
telling the "story of your woe,".you
will lie awake, and by your tossings
spoil your breakfast in the morn
ing, and begin tomorrow feeling
ten times worse than you did to-
day. There are some great troubles
that only time heals, and perhaps
some that can never be healed at
all; but all can be helped by the
great penacea, work. Try it, you
who are afflicted. It is not a pat
ent medicine; it has proved its eff
cacy ever since Adam and Eve left
their beautiful Eden behind them.
