A man, Mailing from parts unknown and
giving his name as Charles NJ. Corlew was
invited by Judge Capen to pay into the
treasury of the state of Vermont the sum
of ten dollars, and to dsburse, in various
other ways, the sum of thirteen dollars and
eight cents, neither of which invitations
he found himself capable of accepting. But
on being urgently requested, he decided,
much against his will, to accompany Sheriff
Goss to the county Jail, there to stand CON-
mitted until paid-the fine, not Corlew.

Recently an article appeared in the Rut-
land Herald under the head of Clarendon,
signed w. S. w." relating to the road
case, which does injustice to Mr.. Green,
the plaintiff, claiming that there was only
rut in the road 1t was abundantly proved
on the trial that there was hole In
the road Is to IS inches deep by
actual measurement within two days
days after the accident. The accident &C.
Cured on the 25th of March, 1874, instead
of 1875. The author of the article at the
trial before the justice expressed great
surprise that verdict Of larger amount
than $40 was not given. The people of
Shrewsbury are neither so green nor SO
aoedk as to be disappointed in the result of
the suit in the county court. The boast
has been made that Mr.. Green is to be
tired cut in this legal controversy, but
judging from the spirit manifested by his
neghbors and the people of North Shrews-
bury generally he win not be 80 easily
tired or driven out if he has not 80 much

The North Shrewsbury cheese factory

A Frce Hors. al Rest.

During the pioneer days Of Ionia,
the town had an editor who was pa
tient and long suffering. Some Of
the members OF the church got him
to give $40 toward securing a minis
ter; then they wanted S. for the
heathcn; then they wanted their re-
ligious notices inserted free; then he
was asked for s25 toward helping to
build 4 parsonage, and he finally
found he was giving the church more
than he gave his family. He never
,heless chung on" for Il time longer,
until one evening he went to prayer
meeting and was asked to leave his
office for Il week and go and help
clear the grounds for camp-meeting.
That was the last straw, and he arose
up and said:
"Gentlcmcn, I'd like to 90 to heav-
en- with you. / know you all. You
are clever and obliging, and Kind and
tender, and it would be nice for us
all, as a congregation, to 90 il to-

body from Detroit, Lapeer or Grand
Rapids. It's money, money, money,
all the time, and Eve given this
church until, if my wife should die,
she'd have to go to heaven bare
footed"
The congregation seemed to realize
that !. fee horse was being rode to
death. They let up on the editor,
and paciticd him. He even had Il
spec ial tent assigned at the camp
meeting and all was well.

THE WIFE.

A wife is like an unknown sea-
Least known to him who thinks he knows,
Where all the shores Of promise be,
Where lie the islands Of repose.
And where the rocks that he must fiee.
Capricious winds, uncertain tides,
Drive the young sailor on and on,
Till all his charts and guides
Prove false. and vain conceit is gone,
And only docile love abides.
Where lay the shadows of the maid,
No plummer line the wife may sound:
Where round the sunny islands played
The pulses of the great profound.
Lies low the treacherOus eyerglade.
And sailing. he becomes. perforce,
Discoverer of q lovely world.
And finds, whate'er may be his course,
Green lands within white seas impearled,
And streams of unsuspected source.
Which feed with gold delicious fruits
Kept by unguessed Hesperdes,
Or cool the lips of gentle brutes
That breed aud browse among the trees
Those wind tossed limbs and leaves are utes.
The maiden free the maiden wed.
Can never, never be the same,
\ new light springs out from the dead,
And. with the speaking of name,
A breath upon the marrage-bed
She finds herself something new
(Which he learns later but no less);
And good and evil. false and true.
May change their features-who can guess!
Seen close or from another view.
Tears spring beneath careless touch;
Endurance hardens with word;
She holds triile with clutch
SO strangely, chiidishly absurd.
That he who loves and pardons much
Doubts if her wayward wit be sane,
When straight beyond his manly power
She stiifens to the awful strain
OF some supreme or crucia! hour,
And stands unblanched in fiercest pain.

Enwraps in gloom. or bursts i'll storm;
She questions all that love may speak.
And weighs its tone and marks its form
Or yields her frailty to freak
That vexes him or breeds disgust;
Then rises him in heroic fame
And treads danger into dust.
Or puts his doubling soul to shame
With love unfeigned and perfect trust.

He had been missing from the

Thre was Il deep silence for mo-

had i new hat, had been shaved clean,
had Oh clean collar and white

Ugly Sam they uttered a shout and
leaped up.
"Cave in that hlt!'' cried one.
"Yank that collar OFF, shouted an

"Lct's roll him on the tioor!'

she reached the place a strange sight
met her eyes.
Carl Connor was standing beside
the PROSTATE form Of her father; far
down the road she saw horse and
phaeton going at fearful speed,
certes running away. Lila grew pale
as the dead. She took a step nearer
Carl, and this was but to confirm the
fear that suddenly smote her-her
father was dead! Yes, dead! and the
moonlight streaming about him
showed a fatal wound in his breast,
from which the blood was oozing in
a crimson stream.
When she saw Rhodcrick's cloak
lying near him--even then she rec
ognized it-her mind grasped the
truth. Carl had mistaken her father
for Rhoderick Orvis, and shot him
dead. And it was so-thc Did fisher
man rode straight to his doom.
Slowly the horriiied girl turned to
Carl. His face looked, in the weird
ly glimmering moonlight, the color of
death itself; a tremor shook him from
head to foot; he seemed paralyzcd
with horror. He moved toward her;
but she waved him off.
go" she said slowly, so!cmnly,
sternly. ''Go, and never let me look
upon your face again. Go, and may
the orphans curse forever follow
you"
Without a word, without daring to
cast a glance at the rigid form Of his
miserable victim, the guilty, terrified
villain skunk away, never to RETURN
Then Lila Wynde's senses reeled,
and, pale and ghastly, she sank to
the ground beside the dead body Of
her father.
And thus Rioderick Orvis found
her a few moments later.
1t was a year before Lila recovered
from the effects OF the dreadful shock
she received that night, or ceased to
think Of her fathers terrible fate.
And when she beanie Rhoderick's
wife, even the limitless love he law
ished upon her did not suffice to ban
ish it entirely from her mind.

qucntly to absent himself, to return
at late hour. and when he did return
to appear AS if intoxicated. At first
reproaches but atterward mcnaces

duet. The gentleman persisted and
seemed every day to become more

having melted 1t she approached her
husband, who pretended to be still

started up aud seized l.er, when, hav-

her till the morning. and conducted
