AN AFRICAN W1rNEss.-Henry VanMeter,
who recently deceased in Bangor, at the age
of one hundred and ten years, was an African
gem that was not born to blush unseen. He
was a genuine ebony waif from Old Virginy,
who drifted down East more than half a CEN
tury ago. He was thoroughly charged with
the inspiration to the Voudou, and could give
odds to the Magda!ene in the number and va
riety of capricious spirits that possessed him.
Van was summoned to court one day as a wit.
ness, and knowing his peculiarities, the counsel
on either side badgered him with the most
preposterous questions, until he became 80
entangled that his answers were wild as the
passes of blinded pugilist. Noticing. the
distress of the obfuscated witness, the kindly
Judge Hathaway hushed the lawyers, and put
simple question to him with the view Of
bringing him back to the starting-point. This
third assault was too much for the over
matched seer, and he broke out, ''Now, look a.
heah, you ole gray haired gemman up on de
bench dar don't you interfere wild dis business
at all; rs JUS as much as I can do to take
care of desc two fellers down heah "-Harper''
Magazine.

SOUND PH1LosopHY-There is a deal OF
sound philosophy in this paragraph from the
Herald OF Health:
Many people think that an idle life must be
q pleasant one but there are none who enjoy
so little, and are such burdens to themselves,
as those who have nothing to do. Those who
are Obliged to work all day enjoy their short
periods of rest and recreation so much, that
they are apt to think if their whole lives were
spent in rest and recreation, it would be the
most pleasant of ALL But this is sad mistake,
as they would soon find out if they made a
trial of the life they think so agreeable. One
who is never busy can never enjoy rest; fol
rest implies relief from previous labor; and
if our whole time were spent in amusing our
selves, we should find it more wearisome than
the hardest days work. Recreation is only
valuable as it unbends us; the idle can know
nothing of it. Many people leave off business
and settle down to a life of enjoyment; but
they generally find that they are not nearly 80
happy as they were before, and they are often
glad to return to their old occupations to escape
the misery of Incidence.

A Grange Burial.

The first burial of member of the Patrons
of HusDandry with the honors OF the order,
that has come to our notice, took place few
days since in Kickapoo, when the remains OF
Henry Bolin were consigned to their last rest
ing place with all the pomp and funeral pageant
of the Granger burial service. Mr.. Bolln was
prominent member, and the attendance was
very large, some 400 persons being present.
The programme of the burial was about as
follows:
On leaving the residence of the deceased,
the hearse which contained the remains was
fanked on either side by three pali-bearers,
who walked with uncovered heads and reegallss
draped in mourning. Following the hearse
came the relatives of the deceased, and next
marched the Sisters of the Order clad in full
regalia. The Brothers came next, and fol-
lowing them the vast concourse of people,
who had come from far and near to witness
the ceremonies The remains were first taken
to the church, where priest went through q
service peculiar to the Catholic church, OF
which the deceased was member When the
exercises had been concluded, the procession
took up it's march for the cemetery, where the
Granger funeral rites were performed. The
coffin was placed on supports directly over the
open grave, and remained there until the
impressive and interesting service was conclu-
ded. G. B. Coffin, Master of the Franklin
Grange, conducted the ceremonies.
When the brothers and sisters of the grange
of which the deceased was member, had
assembled about the grave, the Master read a
selection from the burial ritual, followed by q
second selection by the Chaplain, and then
the members repeated slowly and solemnly the
Lords prayer, closing with beautiful and
appropriate hymn. The Brothers of the Order
then stepped to the grave and threw into the
opening several boquets of flowers and ever
greens. A short, but powerful address was
next delivered by the Chaplain: While the
coffin was being lowered into the grave, q
beautiful and soul inspiring hymn was sung,
and during the singing the sisters strewed
bouquets of flowers upon the descending coffin
until it reached the wooden box at the bottom
of the grave. The Master then sprinkled a
portion of dirt thrown from the grave over the
coffin, and the service closed with the solemn
benediction of the Chaplain.
Taken throughout the ceremonies were very
beautiful and impressive. This was the first
burial of Granger in the county, and if we
are correctly informed, in the State-that is,
with the ceremonies Of the Order.-Leaoen-
acorth Times.

ArFEcrINe.-A recent fire in the woods OF
Marlboro County, S. c., was approaching the
premises of Mr.. Josiah Quick. Mr.. @. was
absent on business with neighbor. Mrs.
Quick, with her three children, went towards
the fire to see if there was danger, and, if ne
cessary, do what they could to save their
premises from destruction. When near the fire,
the largest child, a boy of eight or nine years,
was sent back to the house for a rake. When
he returned, he found his mother lying dead,
and the two smaller children, SIX and tour
years, standing by the lifeless body. Mrs. =.
excitement and effort on this occasion gave
sudden fatality to the attack. The children,
who were with the mother when she died, had
the remarkable presence of mind to rake with
their little hands the leaves from around the
body of the mother to save the body from being
marred by the fre.-Christian Neighbor.
