ATEMrFRANcE RENiNfsCENCE.--EX -frei-
ident Hopkins, Of Williams College. in re-
cent address, gave this Renaissance OF the
temperance movement al remember well
the first movement in Williamstown, and IN
the college, on the subject. It was, think,
as carly as 1882 or 1888. There were two
hotels in the place, both selling liquor as a
matter of course, and three or four stores
that retailed three or four hogsheads each
annually. No one seemed 10 suppose the
traffic wrong. But one Sunday DIR. Hewitt
then of Bridgeport, preached two tremendous
sermons on the subject and now note the
effect of a trained conscience when it is en-.
hghtened. The next day, both hotels and
every store in town stopped selling. ! have
never known such an effect produced by any
discourse, or any two discourses, before. or
since. A public sentiment was created that
has never died out For long time, the
traffic was wholly suppressed, and has never
been resumed in the stores since

that in all his district he found but one
farmer who pretended to keep any account

II used to be an old saying in Yankee
land that it was the mans business 10 bring
home the money aud the wonan's to see
that it was used judiciously and economi-
cally. But there is a sad want Of knowledge
of domestic economy IN the land aud no
school is more needed than school for
housekecpers. Who can tell how much it
costs to make a loaf OF bread or half a dozen
pies whether ii is more economical to use
eggs for food or sell them at the market
rates-how mach a pound of beef will loose
in roasting or boiling There are hun
drcd of these little domestic conuudrums
that could be studied to advantage.

rejecting ON him in relation to GER

and suggesting that in his explanation
last week he had found it too embar-
assing to be answered and had there
fore taken refuge in silence. He then
spoke briefly in denial of the story,
produced and had read letters from
the parties who were said to have
witnessed the reported transactions
in which they totally denied the
truth of the charges, and concluded
as follows:
my excuse for trespassing on the
kindness of the House is the fact that
l desire to give the widest possible
publicity to my disproof of a story
that has been circulated for and near,
and yet mostly in secret and never
with responsibility. I now dismiss it
with the possibly groundiess hope
that those who have sought TO injure
me by repeating it will make proper
and honorable amends. / believe
the country will understand and ap-
preciate the motives that suggest
these untruthful accusations. Having

extensively circulated, ! shall refrain
