AntI-Grange Note From Athens.

Il hh' Ebiioh III u recent issue OF tne
TrMEs,your Grafton correspondent speaks
of the extreme amicability of the Graf.
ton grangers, in allowing their children
to play with other children &c, as OF
yore. Now | don't wish to make any
comparisons disparaging 10 the Grafton
grange or its members, but still cannot
remain silent longer; fearing that Gold
en- Rule Grange of Athens will not re.
ceive the honorable mention due its true
worth and character. The members OF
this grange not only allow their children
to play with the children of the worlds
people, as formally, but it has created
such fraternal feelings between BROKERS
and Killers that it is surmised that they
even join hands and sing Come Philan-
der, let us be a Marching" This grange
was organized under the most favorable
auspices Full two thirds of the charter
members (report says were prepared
with funds, not only sufficient to pay their
own initiation fees, but in such abundance
that they were enabled to lend freely to
the remaining third enough to enable
them to become happy members of Gold
en- Rule Grange. According to the re-
ports abroad of the worthy officers of
this grange, it is not only one of the most
moral institutions of the age, but in in
tellectual capacity it would be difficult
to approach, much less excel.
They know all about grangerism, and
will tell you why they know it to be so
(because deputy Boyden told them.
The sign of a granger just at this time,
appears to be barrel or two of -four in
front Of his dwelling, this being their
first venture. They had expected some
of that celebrated Grange flour that had |
been so highly extolled with clean bar
reIs free from all suspicious brands which |
horrid middlemen, spectators and the
like put upon their -four to deceive the |
the uninitiated, for grange -four was not
branded, they know that positively for
Boyden said so. But 10 when it arriv-
ed it looked very much like other flour.
brand and all. This grange has labored
under some Inconvenience, however,
one being suitable place to hold their
weekly meetings. They tried what is
called the town hall, over the brick
Church, few times, but that was rather
cool orwinter use. They then tried the
white Church, with closed doors and
darkened windows and now occupy the
vestry of thesame for their weekly meet
ings.
Professional men appear to be more
favored individuals here than in some
places, as it is understood they have one
Nj. d., and one Rev. among their num-
Der. Mechanics are fairly represented,
even to violin manufacturer. Their
meetings have been so very important
that it has been necessary to prolong
them IN some instances to quite a late
hour, even until the small hours of the :
which we think must be un- i
pleasant for lady members, who though
members of the church are seldom able t
% attend on the Sabbath, even on COM I
munion days. t
Golden Rule Grange is destined with I
'ut doubt to be bright and shining
light and deserves to be Boyden's pet G

SGRIBNER's MONTHLY FOR MARCH,
Some one in New York writes as follows
of Scribner for March az suppose
that after this March number Of Major
Powell's Colorado papers is published
the public will wake up to the extraor-
binary interest of the series, both in
story and illustration, and will be look
ing up the back numbers. A more
splendid feat has seldom been described
so modestly and well, by the hero him
self. In fact the public seem to be look
ing up the back numbers of this volume
of Scribner already, for the publishers
are reprinting some, and expect to be
compelled to reprint all the issues since
the beginning of the volume in Novem-
ber."
DR.. Hollands Story Of Sevenoaks
may have something to do with this UNI
usual demand. This reaches its third
installment in the March number, and
the william of the play is taken from the
quiet of Sevenoaks to the more turbid
and cohgenial atmosphere of the metrop-
oils, where it seems likely that he will
run course not altogether unprecedent-
ed in the history Of successful "vulgar-
isms."
How the Opera of Dante was
Written is not an essay, as some sup
pose it is story which contains a sug-
gestion to which we beg leave to call
Verdi's attention.
Airy Lillian is fair sample of
what may be called an occasion story,
and certainly throws good deal of light
upon an obscure topic.
In this number we have one of the
promised papers by Albert Rhodes, who
this time gives an entertaining illustrat-
ed sketch of the famous fabulist La
Fontaine.
Some Old Letters are continued
and besides their own interest, are re-
markable as being accompanied by a
hitherto unpublished portrait of Sir
Walter Scott, by the artist Newton. once
well-known in America and England.
DIR. Robinson says some bright things
here about DR.. Leonard Bacon and his
book, under the title Of New England
and her Church"
Among the contributions is another

ner, c. f. Bates, G. p. Lathrop and

The most noticeable features in the
Editorial departments are DIR. Hollands
papers on Criticism, and Preaching a
summing upof the " Sex in Education
controversy, and new departure in
the " Etchings' department" which is
much longer and more varied than ever
before. Address Scribner & Co. 654
