the cool north wind moves the foliage on the
trees of the valley and the hillside, and all
nature is teeming with life and animation
As grangers, we should strive TO initiate
nature in all its purity aud loneliness. We
should be just what we appear to be, no
more OF less. This appearing to be what we
are not is one Of the great causes of so much
discord in our social circles, and the bust
ness Of every day life. We should accord
to every one the liberty of free speech which
we claim for ourselves when this point is
gained, if ever it is, much, very much of the
prevailing ignorance and superstition of the
present day will be banished from our land.

Be Encouraged and Falter Not.

The Southern Rural Gentleman has the
following: IL so much has been accom-
plished by the farmers movement in so short
a time, what may we not expect from it with
age and more enlarged experienced No
patron should suffer himself to abate in the
least in effort to perfect the work of the Or
der, or complete the reform so happily begun
and which is making such rapid progress.
Evidences Of progress and Improvement are
seen everywhere, and when the question is
asked from where this new state OF things
came, we are constrained to answer, through
the workings of the principles OF the Patrons
of Husbandry, by their work inside Of tho
gate, a cheerful and hopeful aspect is made
to pervade everything without, and an ami.
nation exists which could not have been
brought about by any other means, or drawn
from any other source. With realization
of these industrial and improving signs,
should we not be more persevering and more
determined to prosecute our work, until the
country is not only relieved from debt and
rendered independent, but our social and ed
ucatioHal system perlected2 1t appears to
US that the Patrons have everything to en-
courage them. If that which was expected
at the beginning has not been as fully realized
as was desirable, enough has been done to
enlist our confidence in ultimate results, and
excite a spirit Of resolute perseverance.
Through the instrumontality Of our teach
ings aud practice, hundreds OF thousands
have already been saved to the country, and
the industrial skies arc Frightening in q

A Cute Detective.

About the frat Of July an attempt was
made to blow up the house Of Mr.. Lucius
NJ. Holtou Of Bennington, who had made
himself obnoxious by prosecuting some of
the liquor dealers in town. The case was
placed in the hands Of one of Pinkerton's de-
tectives and finally John Reeves, Charles II.
Cole, Mike Coffee, j. Fitzgerald aud man
named Barnes, were arrested for the crime.
Reeves and Cole are liquor dealers, while
the others are rougbs of the worst descrip.
ton. Coffee aud Fitzgerald turned state 8
evidence, Barnes was discharged, while Cole
aud Reeves we're held in $500 each to ap.
pear for examination. 1t is thought that a
clear case exists against them. The gang
have been the terror Of the county for the
past five months and are charged with other
outrages. A Bennington correspondent tells
the following interesting story Of the way
the detective cornered the rascals: About
two months ago, a journeyman halter turned
up 10 Bennington. He was stranger to
everybody in town. He called himself
Cooney. He was keen, bright little fell
low, but was dressed very stability. He
was evidently very poor. He went about
begging to press over old hats. He picked
up a scanty living in that way. He was
evidently fond of bad society. He plunged
into all the saloons in the town, and made
acquaintance with the utmost recklessness.
lie didn't drink much as a general thing
but when "the boys" tried him on, they found
somehow they couldn't get him drunk. But
he would play "seven.up" with anybody,
would sleep anywhere people would let him,
on the floor Of saloons, or in a chair. He
used to get terribly sleepy in saloons and
sleep in his chair all the evening, while mcr
were playing cards and talking near him
Thus he went on for two,months, constantly
nssociating with the worst classes. FINAL
tho lightning struck and the "journeymar
halter" who spoiled several hundred hats, in
trying to iron them, then came out in a neat
suit of clothes aud a diamond pin, and says
he hasn't ironed hats for nothing, and that
he has found out all about the burning o

Death of James Lick.

James Lick, the California millionaire
and philanlhropist, died lately at the age Of
eighty years. having been born at Freder-
icksburg, Penn, on the 25th of August,
1876. From 1921 to 1S47 he was engaged
in commercial pursuits in South America.
Having accumulated considerable property
he went TO California ard invested il in real
estate and in various enterprises by which
be acquired large fortune In 1874 he
placed 100000 Of his estate in the hands
Of trustees for various public and philsnthro-
pic objects, reserving to himself only his
homestead and life income Of 1876 900 an-
nually. OF this 100000 was TO be used
to establish an observatory with a large tele-
scope at Lake Tahoe 100000 for school
Of mechanic arts in California S250,000

for public baths in Sacramento S150,000
for monument to Francis Scott Key, au-
thor Of the "Star Spangled Banner" aud va.
rious sums for several benevolent societies in
San Francisco. After conveying the prop.
erty to the trustees he revoked the trust and
began proceedings tor recovery for the pur-
pose Of making different provision for carry
ing out his purposes. Since the last change
10 the trustees Mr.. Lick had frequently ex-
pressed himself better satisfied with the con.
dition of affairs, but he manifested consider
able concern at hearing nothing from his son,
John Lick Of Fredericksburg, Pa, to whom
both letters aud kilograms had been sent re-.
questing his resignation as one Of the trust
ees. All the rest Of the old board have ten
derod their designations, though they have
not yet been confirmed by the courts. The
trustees say that the business is in such a
shape that no complications can ensue 10 car
rying out Mr.. Lick's charitable designs,
though there is some fear expressed that the
action Of John Lick implies an intention Of
contesting the matter in the courts.

Only His Habit

The proprietor of a drug store hired a new
soda fountain boy the other day, and after
the boy had been instructed how to work
the apparatus the proprietor added
Snow, you sec this faucet up here? Well,
there is brandy behind that, and when man
comes in and winks aod says he'll take lit
tie ho-hum in his you will know that he
means brandy"
Everything worked all right until about
noon. Several men dropped in, said "Ho.
hum" got their brandy and soda, and the
boy saw no cloud in the horizon.
At noon the brandy bottle was empty, the
drug store man at his dinner, and it didn't
do any good to "Ho-hum" around that
fountain. Along come man, and as he
stood before the fountain, waiting his turn,
he winked at the boy. lie had habit Of
winking his left eye, and he winked at the
fountain as much as he did at the boy. The
lad, however, called out;
Haven't got any brandy leit-havo to
take syrup"
The man was good man. He winked
again in his amazement, and the boy re-
piled:
Didn't tell you we hadn't any brandy
left Dye 'spose I'D lie about it2'
"My-my-son-you- should not
should not" stammered the good man, as
all looked at him, and 10! in his embarass-
ment he winked again
"Can make brandy out of sarsaparilla or
pineapple SYRUP" yelled the boy. 81 tell
you you've got to take plain syrup till the
boss comes back !"
Ill didn't want any brandy" gasped
the man.
"Weli, we didn't keep anything stronger
in the fountain, and couldn't tell whiskey
from ArDica if was to look on the shelves !"
growled the boy. You'll find what you
want 10 the saloon around the corner"
The wipker winked all around the crowd,
tried to explain his position, and then hus-
tied out and boarded a street car.
