If you wish to drown yourself, kick
and splash about as violently as you can,
and you will soon go to the bottom. But
IL you remember that you are lighter
than water, and if you calmly and stead
lily refrain from drawing your breath
while under the water, keep your head
raised, and your arms under, you will
soon learn TO float and swim like duck

The setting of a great hope is like
the setting of the sun. The brightness
of our life is gone, shadows of the
evening fall behind us, and the world
seems but a dim reflection itself-a
broader shadow. We look forward in
to the coming lonely night; the soul
withdraws itself. Then stars arise, and
the night is holy.-C Longfellow.

LOVE FOR THE DEAD.-The love that
survives the tomb (says Irving), Is the
noblest attribute Of he soul. If it has
woes, it has likewise It's delights, and
when the overwhelming burst Of grief
is lulled into the gentle tear Of recollec-
tion, then the sudden anguish and con-
vulsive agony over the present ruins Of
all we most love, are soitened away into
pensiye medi;aiionE Of all that il was in
the days Of its loveliness. Who would
root such sorrow from the heart;
though it may sometimes throw pass
| ing cloud over the bright hour of gale
ty, or spread a deeper sadness over the
hours Of gloom, YET who would exchange
it for the song Of pleasure or the burst
Of reyelry? No, There is voice from
the tomb, Weeter than song; there is a
remembrance of the dead, to which we
turn even from the charm Of the living.

An Explanation.

Mr.. John O'Neil, the candy manufac-
turer, No 10 Center street, who was be-
fore the police court on Friday, asserts
that injustice has been done him and that
he was convicted upon unreliable evidence.
He positively asserts that he sold moth,
ing intoXcationg on the 4th of July. The
mixture he sold was simply of water, vine
gar, sugar, India molasses and tartarc acid,
which he had bottled up. Hc also sold
Morse's root beer and Stanleya sarsaparlla
pop, neither of which liquids had any in
toxicating qualities about them. One of
the witnesses who swore against him had
a law suit with him and lost his suit and
had maliciously threatened, in the presence
of witnesses, several of whom were well
known lawyers of the town, that he would
have his revenge on O'Neil. We give the
statement as given by Mr.. O'Neil, who
claims he has been greatly wronged and
desires this statement made to the public.
He says he did not come to Rutland to
open a rum shop or engage in its sale. but
to engage in the legitimate business of man
ufacturing candy.

ON THE MARCH.
The Rutland Military Institutes

The pupils of Capt. Kelley's Military
Monday morning, forty-three in number,
and at nine o'clock took up their line of
march for Lake Dunmore where they will
60 into camp. Their guns, camp and gar
rison equipage was carried in three wagons
that followed after them. The boys were
in good spirits and started off in high glee,
and marched along, amusing themselves in
different ways, arriving at the camp ground
in Pittsford about twelve o'clock, and at
one o'clock had their tents pitched, coffee
made and dinner cooked, all of which was
done in genuine camp style. The camp
was christened Scamp Peabody in honor
of ID. p. Peabody, Esq, who kindly gave
them the use of the ground, which is di-
rectly in rear of the Methodist church, the
soil being sandy, with carpet of nice
green grass, so that in case they had been
troubled with much rain it would have
soon disappeared During the afternoon
quite little shower came up which some
what interfered with the programme of the
afternoons amusements, one of which was
to have been game of base ball. During
the afternoon they were visited by Mrs G..
III. Cheney, Mrs. +. A. Fisher Miss Annie
Weed, and Mss Carrie Fisher who
called on them just as it commenced to
rain, but who were Immediately provided
with shpltnr iln1pr ono nf tha tnnte In thn
evening, Gen. w. Y. w. Ripley and
party drove up to make them visit. Not
withstanding the shower, which did not
seem to dampen their spirits in the least,
they amused themselves until seven o'clock
when they had their dress parade The
boys showed no signs of fatigue when they
reached the place selected for the camp,
and some of them expressed a desire to
''move Immediately upon Brandon, but
which idea twas postponed until this
morning at o'clock, when they will start
for that place, where they will arrive
about eleven o'clock and go into camp on
the green in that village and remain there
until Wednesday morning. We advise our
Brandon friends to be sure and witness
their dress parade this evening, which will
afford them chance to see what
thorough instruction will do with boys
possessed of as much nerve and true grit
as are the pupils of Capt. Kclley's school
in which every citizen of Rutland takes
pride

The Indian Difficulties.
WASHINGTON, July 10.

WASHINGTON, July IL.
General orders from the headquarters of
the military division of Missouri received
at the war department, announce that in
consequence of the hostile attitude of the
Comanche, Kiowos and Cheyenne Indians
the existing orders fixing the limits of the
department of Missouri and subject to the
approval,of the President, ARE so far modified
as to extend the southern line of that
department to the main Canadian river in
conducting operations against the Indians,
either for the purpose of punlshing them
or for the protection of persons and prop
erty. Commanding officers of the depart
ment of Missouri and Texas may disregard
the lines separating these departments.
General Pope, commanding the depart
mcnt of Missouri has written letter to
the governor of Kansas, Il copy of which
has been forwarded, showing that the
whole frontier of Kansas is lined with
troops constantly in motion, and it seems
impossible that the Indians can do any
damage. BY application to the nearest
commanding officer to any point threatened
or to any of the moving companies
threatened localities can be promptly at
tended to.
Gen. Pope says in relation to the trading
firms at Dodge City who have in violation
of the law and to the incalculable injury
of the peaceful and honest farmers and
frontier settlers of Kansas, established
trading posts, or rather grog shops, in Tex
as, IS miles along Arkansas, to trade with
Buffalo hunters and ruflians who have in
vaded the Indian country and committed
violent and inexcusable outrages upon the
Indians.
He has no word OF sympathy or concern,
and if he should send troops to the locality
of these unlawful trading establishments it
would be to break them up and not to pro-
tect them. He says to the INSCRIPTIONS
and Illegal transactions of these people the
murder of innocent settlers on the frontier
are largely attributable and they ought to
be punished and not protected.
Gen. Pope writes to Gen. Sherman that
except to careless stragglers outside of the
military lines and to few remote settlers
he thinks we are fully able to give protcc-
ton from Indian outrages.
