dollar bill to pay his fare. Some change
was to be given back, but the conductor
handed the passenger roll of bills, and
passed on. The man who received the
money appeared no less astonished than
the Hartford gentleman, and was about to
follow up the conductor and return the
bills, when the Hartford man suggested
to him to hold on a little while, and see
what the ticketpuncher would do. When
the train stopped at Bridgeport the pas
senger said he would step into the re-
freshmentroom moment and would re-
turn, but did not make his appearance
again, having perhaps forgotten, in fit
of observation-disclosures, that he had the
money. This, of course, made the Hart
ford man feel little queer, as he had
stopped the fellow from paying back the
money, though with the best intentions in
the world. Very soon after the conductor
and the brakeman came through the car
together, and made very careful search
for something, and it is probable that the
conductor still thinks he dropped the roll
OF bills in that or some other car, or tina
some rascal stole it. Instances of abt
sence of mind rarely take this form among
railroad conductors.

TEN CENT BILLINGSl:ATE

Our neighbor intimates that there were
misers in Rutland last Friday, who
wanted to ply some mysterious vacations,
for which dark streets would afford more
occasions, and hence entered into secret,
dark and fendish plot with burglars and in
cendaries to vote for ten cents less than
our ncighbor voted for If the figures of
our correspondent, Mr.. billiard, are cor
rect, fifteen cents is enough. lfthey are not
correct, our contemporary, if he has in any
degree recovered from his "shame and
humiliation might feel like informing the
''burglars and incendiaries" wherein they
are wrong. There ought to be an intimate
knowledge of village affairs in that quarter
and il would have better effect to exhibit
some of it than to indulge in Bllingsgate,
which convinces nobody. If Mr.. billiards
figures remain undisputed to material ex-
tent the burglars and incendaries" will
be apt to stick to their notions of economy.
1t may be necessary to vote a twenty-five
cent tax, but there are better ways of
showing it than parliamentary language
from the twenty-five cent men towards the
fifteen cent men.
This of course only bears ON the question
of current expenses, gas, watchmen an(
the fire department. The sewer question
is separate affair. The village did no
reach it at the last meeting, in the cours,
of business, before adjournment. TIL,
management of that sewer matter is proba
bly, one reason that propositions to ia!
move heavily and slowly, and even school
suffer, OF course current expenses shoul,
be paid, schools should be amply support
ed, and sewers should be well made. Blu
there are reasons for caution, and thos
who criticise the village action should b
prepared to show statistics, or advanc
some better argument than that, in on
cotemporary's belief, there is somethin
out of gear in his opponents moral const
tuition or their moral education.

EOIINADOHIS.

Yesterday noon field of CIRCUS clouds
in the south exhibited sunset colors They
were red, yellow, brown and gray with
brightness as if another sun than that over
head was shining behind them. At the
same time the atmosphere was very hazy in
the south.
A phenomenon somewhat similar was
observed in New York shortly before the
Iowa tornado. After this phenomenon
noticed here we shall probably soon here
of Il tornado in China or somewhere else
Tornadoes are interesting topics for news
papers and for observers who are not in
their paths. Major Salisbury of the Bard
well House saw the great tornado in Iowa,
in 1853. He was milking, but as the tor
nado did not seem to be in hurry, but
was prancing about in "A zigzag way and
up and down, he finished his chores and
then sat down his pail and took observa-
tions. 1t looked like balloon with Il
proboscis apparently the size and shape OF
an elephants trunk, though of course il
was really larger. 1t would fetch that
trunk swipc across the tops of trees ant
trim them off like shearcd hedge. II
would strike the water and scatter it ovel
both banks. 1t would plow up the prairie
occasionally. 1t gathered up Wagon
loaded with green rails and scattered then
abroad over the prairie, after separating tn,
iron from the wood and twisting it. A
stranger had five hundred dollars in gold t,
buy land it located it for him bfoadcas
over the prairie When the Major saw
this he went in the house and shut TIN
door, He could not bear to see such ex
travagance. The tornado, however, pro
ceeded with its work. 1t picked up barr
60 feet long by 40 feet wide, and starte,
away with it, but split it about the neigh
boring country in fragments Itpicked III
another house and set it down again, bu
placed it across the foundation, so that
was very troublesome to get it rghtcd
Some houses were set down on the corners
These experiments resulted in number O
deaths. Horses and mules were role
about, and some killed and some had thei
bones broken.

The late meeting of the Presbyterian
General Assembly promises to result in the
union of the Cumberland Presbyterians
with the main body. This organization
went off with the Jerks" in the early
part of this century, in Kentucky and Ten
nessee, and now numbers 1900 churches
and 100000 communicates. BY the time
the Prcsbyterians gather up all their frag-
ments they will be one of our most power
full churches. The Old and New Schools
united three years ago. The late assembly
made some advances towards gathering in
the southern synod, and the synod of Mis-
souri,, the latter of which wanted to be
neutral during the war. The Presbyterian
church ought not to be among the last to
heal sectional differences. Doubtless the
meeting next year at st. Louis will show
entire accord.

Man is a being OF functions, actlng in
harmony intellectually in his case de-
ponds upon the action of all, all these func-
tons.
The greatest minds have ever been the
greatest actors.
Exceptions" says an indolent school
teacher; but he don't say exceptions when
dinner time comes, to doing just as great
men have done, to eat his dinner.
But who feed upon the fruits of knowl-
edge? The millions do not millions have
not while eating their dinners.
The fruits of knowledge never can be Sc
cured by the millions, but by full action of
all the functions in childhood. The strength
of brain to learn is got by the action Of the
body. The all day school for the Pope it
is the great INSTRUCTOR.
The half day schools prevailing in Ger
many, Prussia and England, as well as no.
table examples in this country, are at
Springfield, Mass, not to mention others !;
are the mighticst machinery of intellectual
and moral progress ever applied for human
elevation. In these schools it is demon
strated the school is just such an ever pre-
sent elevation of the child which civil gov
eminent is of his parent he earns more,
learns more and lives cheaper, and stronger,
Noon is the only point at which the
child can be every where, country and
city alike, connected and worked mentally
and industrially with both the mental and

universal all day school is from the Romsh
Cloister, and can be traced nowhere else
for its origin. Mans mind must ever de-
pend'upon the childs action.
"The powers that be are the powers of
the most dircful habit which has afflicted
this earth, the divorce Of body and mind.
They are obliged to shorten the cruel, de-
bilitating afternoon school. But the child,
except to please the Pope and the ruling
custom, after spending three hours before
noon in the school room, should never be
found in the same place the same day,
unless, in the hardly supposeable case of a
very new country, to escape from wild
beast, or, in the city, from a rabid one.
Still, professional men seem inclined to
hold the present generation the lawful vic
Tins to their soul-klling policy and habits.

means his entire connection in time and place

A correspondent of the New York 7H-

gathering at st. Louis was brought about
by the railroad managers. The Atlantic
and Pacific railway running through Mis-

of which they have 200, 900 or 1900, 900
left. This land is good for wheat and to-
bacco. but its chief value is in its minerals.
