A Family nxe-uniom.

THE GREGG FAMILY GATHERED UNDER THE
PARENTAL ROOF IN MILL CREEK.
1t is doubtful if there is community in
Delaware where there has been less change
in property than in that locality which sur
rounds the Brandywine Springs, the ''old
family" influence predominating there to
wonderful degree. These "old families, "
when the hive must swarm, branch off, and
settle in other communities, but it is very
seldom that the old homestead is allowed
to pass out of the hands Of some member
of the family.
Amongst these old-fashioned good people,
none have clung with stronger tenacity to
the old homestead than the Gregg family.
The farm, which is one of the best not
only in Mill Greek Hundred, but in Della
ware, is located about mile west of Bran
dywine Springs. The ancient looking barn,
several times rebuilt and repaired, bears
the date of 1773, and the old-fashioned
stone house, though having no date, was a
place of good cheer and liberal hospitality
many years before that date.
This place was the scene of reunion of
the Gregg family (in whose possession it
has been nearly 100 years) last Thursday.
Mary Gregg, the mother OF ten children, all
living, was born on this place 9S years ago,
married on it, and died on it. six years ago,
aged 80. Her maiden name was Wells.
Two of her children still live on the old
homestead and being about to remove to
this city and leave it in the possession of a
nephew, home gathering was held before
taking farewell OF the place they had so
long cherished aud called "home."
The gathering was remarkable one. OF
the ten children alluded to, six are daugh-
ters and four sons, the youngest being 55
years of age and the eldest 20; they all hav-
ing lived total of 649. years, or each an
average of GA years and months. These
were all present at the home gathering last
Thursday except Edith, wife Of Gilpin Std
ham, who was detained on account of the
sickness Of her husband. In addition there
were 20 grandchildren and % great-grand-
children and 3S ueighbors from the farms
adjoining the homestead, principally the
Clarnens, McElwees, Foote's, Crossans,
Balls and Rubencames, making the entire
number who met around the Widespread ia
BILE and partook of the good cheer SO.
Bayard Gregg, from Bnghamton, N. Y.
the only one of the ten who had strolled
far away from the parental roof, after ask
| ing blessing, made few feeling remarks
at the first table, appropriate to the occa-
sion, and subsequently the day, very
pleasant one, was appropriately spent.

mr.. Tapper,a Circumstances

Concerning Mr.. Upper Mr. Bayard Tay-
lor writes to the Cincinnati Commercial !:
"Tupper was here before, in 1S4s or 40,
when his 'Proverbial Philosophy was still
one Of the books on parlor tables He was
then dumpy, appie-facei, dark haired lit
tie man, notably fussy and self-demonstra-
tive in his manner. Having landed about 3
P. NJ he took carriage and drove direct
ly to the Office of the Evening Post, with
the manuscript of TWO sonnets which he had
written on board the steamer. while coming
up the bay, and handed them in to be
printed the same evening. II remember
rightly, they were entitled Greeting or
'Salutation' to America. He was then said
to be very wealthy, but l have heard that
he is now in quite reduced circumstances.
He comes over to lecture.

Greenland nORs.

Two OF these dogs can drag as much as
one man. Nothing can be more exhilara-
ting than dog sledging in the Arctic regions
on a fine day. The rattling pace of these
dogs, their intelligence in choosing the
road through the broken ice, the strict obe-
dience paid by the team to one powerful
dog whom they elect as leader, the arbi-
trary exercise of authority by the master
dog, the constant use of the whip, and the
running conversation kept up by the driver
with lthe different dogs who well know
their names, afford constant enjoyment
However useful they may be, these Arctic
dogs seem to be deficient in that affection
ate disposition which endears their species
so much to man. traveller once said that
he believed the Esquimaux dogs to be the
most ungrateful creatures in creation. He
had travelled several hundred miles by
sledge, and for six weeks it was his duty
regularly to feed the dogs but after only
few weeks absence, at the conclusion Of
his journey, they would not recognize him
in the slightest degree. 1t is impossible to
domesticate these creatures, as under ten
der treatment they sicken and die.-Nat.
