The Michigan State Grange, at their last
annual meeting, adopted the following SEN
sible resolutions:
Resolved, That we regard the principle of
pay as you go, which we make as q cardinal
principle of our Order, one calculated under
all circumstance to encourage the prosper
ity of those who practice it, and urge upon
all Patrons to bring themselves as rapidly
as possible to its universal practice and adop-
ton by members.
A brother writes that the grangers in Ala
bama are showing a lively interest this WIN
ter. He hopes the revival will not stop soon,
but will keep on in the good work until the
last farmer is converted.
There will be more grange lectures and
agricultural speeches delivered the coming
summer than ever were known in the land.
We hear the notes of preparation from
Maine to Georgia, and from Maryland to
California.
We are receiving most cheering accounts
from all the States regarding the renewed
life and energy which is now exhibiting it.

Secretary, Kelly, of the National Grange,
reports more new oranges organizing, than
for several months previous. On one day
last week, over sixteen new grange organi-
cations were received at Bro. Q. IL. kelly's
office.
At the meeting of the Board of Managers
of the Centennial E~ncampment Association

good fortune to meet the Patrons of Fair
view Grange No. u, it being a special meet
ing cllled for the purpose of comforting the
fourth degree upon a class of candidates.
On entering the hall. l found the house
crowded, not only with members of that
grange, but many visitors from neighborine
oranges. Among the visitors were the
Worthy Master, and his estimable lady, OF
the Territorial Grange.
After many greetings, the spacious table,
stretching from one extremity of the hall to
the other, was beautifully arranged, and it
made Q magnificent display Of the luxuries
it contained.
All being i'll readiness, the sound of the
Masters gavel proclaimed order. After the
preliminary ceremony, the Worthy Master
announced the special order OF business and
tie fourth degree was in due form conferred

on the class. By request of the Worthy
Master the patrons repaired to the table and
partook of the harvest-feast so bountifully
prepared by the sisters for the occasion.
After the third table had sampled the good
things spread before them, a recess ensued
while the table was being removed, and all
engaged in a pleasant, social Interchange of
thought.
The whole affair reflected much credit on
the members of Old Fairview, and bespoke
for it a bright and prosperous future. Grad
uaiiy gaining in membership, with a good
record, and a good condition of finance, it is
to-day the most prosperous grange in this

In all great enterprises, or great reforms,
there are, and must be, a few men who stand
prominently forward, who take the brunt
of the labor, and who sacrifice themselves to
the cause. They are not paid in money;
they are often abused for their pains. But
the world owes them a debt of gratitude it
can never repay. By and by it wakes up to
understand and appreciate their labor.
They were martyrs in life and they become
saints after death. Just so. in every success
full institution, a few men must carry the
burden, must do the labor, and the many
have the benefit Of their labors. This is true
in all of our churches, our temperance So
cieties and our fairs. Tt is equally true in
our oranges and happy is that grange
which has one man or woman pre-eminent
for ability to labor, ready to help Others,
wise to plan, prompt to execute, and hav-
ing, withal, that sweetness of heart and that
brotherly affection for their fellows which
incites them to do all lovingly, so as to
draw others on and unite the whole grange
in the active duties of the hour. The re-
ward of such labors come not now, but the
good lone is unreasonable and the heart
is content in the happy consciousness ofthe
gain which nthors havo received 80 Helper.

OF men of business capacity ana en-

This opposition, which always asserts
itself when an advance step is pro-
posed, succeeds in retarding progress
for time, but in the end always gives
way and always becomes convinced.
The same class of people that doubted
the feasibility of the postal card oppose
the fast mail trains, and are firm in

certain food characteristics. Some of
these the stranger naturally remarks as
soon as he comes into the country.
When The Prince of Wales was here the
most striking one to him was the pre-
valence OF tile eating OF oysters-the
smell OF them, raw, cooking and cooked,
and the sight of the shells, being un-
pleasant to him. During his sojourn he
was always endeaVoring 10 escape from
the smell of them, and to this day prob
ably his recoilections of America are in
umateIy associated with the testaceous
animals. rne amateur OF cooked oys-
ters NAV affirm, and probably with rea-
son, that the Prince did not know what
was good, hut that is a matter of opin-
ION. The Prince likely, as most English
men are, is iond Of eating lettuce and
cheese together, which the amateur Of
cooked oysters would probably dislike
as much as the royal guest did his IA
yorite food.
According to the newspapers, wh en-
another member of royal iamIly, not
| long ago, was travelling through the
United States, he said his chief objec-
ZION to the country was he could not get
anything to eat, the remark being made
alter going through the South ana West,
and before reaching the metropolis. The
hope was held out to him in Philadelphia
that in New York he would fine compen-
sation Tor ithe trials which he mad un-
dergone in other parts oil the Union;
but he was skeptlcal and counted on
little Improvement. Ii q reporter OF the
press may be credited, he went so far as
to saw that we were the worst fed OF all
the civilized peoples. Some weight may
be attached TO this opinion, as he who
gave it has some reputation as gas
lrOn0mer.
To 90 from royalty to the proletarlat,
the workingmen's delegates from France
to the Centennial Exhibition complained
of the food which was placed before
them by their tellow-workmen here.

Nuisances In Siam.

The Siam Weekly Advertiser says:
Siam has no nuisance laws. Indeed
there appears TO be no word in the SIAM
ese language which expresses nuisance
as such. How they have managed to
get along SO far, among SO many
nuisauces, without law to regulate
them or even name to express them,
Is more than the writer can undertake
TO account Tor. The Siamese are now,
however, sufficiently advanced in the
scale OF civilization to make some move
at least toward nuisance law.
A number OF small steam rlce-mllls
are being erected in the lower part oil
the city, and others are said to be In
contemplation. These mills are being
erected chiefly by Cinnamon, wherever
| a site can be obtained, without respect
to the inconvenience or damage OF the
lneighbors. Some of them are very near
wat grounds, and must eventually be a
source of annoyance to the yellow
robed gentlemen who reside there.
Some Cinnamon are erecting a small
rice.mill at the mouth of the Samre
Canal. Now what will be the effect OF
that rice-mill upon the neighDors? 10
the west of the mill there Is a long
reach of fruit gardens belonging to dill
ierent owners.
These gardeners are as a general
thing industrious and honest. They
live upon the income from their gardens,
Their fathers before them have done sc
for generations. During the southeast
monsoon the smoke anu ashes from the
burning chaff, and the dust from the
mill will be carried for miles over these
gardens. 1t is q well-known fact thai
when this dust comes IN contact witt
fruit trees it either Kills them outrigh
or renders them entirely worthless
rhus these honest, industrious garden
, ers will be incommoded and annoyed il
their homes by dust and smoke, ant
their property will be ruined, and, ac
cording to Siamese law, they will have
no redress. John Chinaman will max,
himself rich with his rice midi, not car
, ing cent for the Inconvenience ant
damage ne is causing to others.
TnIs mill may also inc0mmode som
who are not Siamese subjects; ii so
there will probably be some noise abou
it. Some Europeans have also pre-
sumed upon the fact that Siam has II
nuisance law. They must bear in mind
: however, that they are not under Siam
ese law, but under the laws OF their ow
, countries, and consuls who fail to ell
force the nuisance laws, as we'll as an
other laws, are certainly remiss in thei

Trousseau for Michigan Bride.
From the Bos on Sunday Courier.l

From the Bosom sunday courier.
Madame PierroLis just now furnishing
the rousseau for Il Michigan bride,
daughter Of an Ex-Governor, and is also
making dresses for the BRIDES mother
and the bridesmaid, and it is really a
rare treat just to look at such artistical'
Jy elegant garments. The bride has sew
enteen dresses, Dlissful soul, and they
each have equal attractions, SO If one
should try to describe the prettiest, she
could not possibly make up her mind
which IL should be.
The bridal dress of heavy white silk
is embroidered with leaves of white jet,
which look like nostwork, and is eX-
qulsltely decorated with tringes oil or.
ange blossoms. A lovely dress of light
blue broeade and silk is made with a
polonalse, which is draped with charm
ing grace, ana trimmed with rich Va
llenciennes lace, plalLings OF silk and
satin OF the same shade. The under
SIX TT is trimmed i'll a novel manner,
bands or Iappels OF alternate silks and
satin, edged with two styles of fringe,
falling over a knite-plaiLed tl0unce of
silk. Very large flowers are used Tor
decoration. An elegant wrapper of
white Grape Gelaine is made simply in
The Gabrielle style, and trimmed with
with cardinal silk. The street costumes
are simple but extremely elegant, and
the reception dresses are superb.
Among the outside garments Is a Verv
handsome mantle OF black cloth, trimmed
with heavy jet braid. Jet is said to be
in great FAVOR once more, and, indeed,
the streets of Paris have never ceased
to sparkle with it, though we have been
considering it decidedly passee here.
The opera cloak of heavy white silk
called taconne, is made in the mantle
style, with two large square pockets on
either side, and trimmed with border
Of needlework in lovely shaded tints and
II superb fringe. The under garments
fairly take ones breath away with ad-
miration, the silken hose being EN-.
broidered in colors TO match each cos
tune.

THE CRECMET,S MISSION.
BY MRS. MARY 3. DODGE.


What are you singing from sun to sun.
Cricket, the long hours throuIh?
Are YOU telling OF what the eartn has done,
Or OF what it mas yet to dop
The rhythm Of all that you Crone about
Is a melody vague yet dear
So dear that the Summer were dull WlCAouG
Your answering presence here
A tendcrer tint the green leaves wear,
The silence is hushed anew,
And softer motion is in the air.
Because they are thrilled by you.
Again listen, and still again,
TO your monotone's bound ess store
In hope to catch from the low refrain
Some secret of hidden lore;
For, truly, it seems you know it all,
Who never are loath to tell,
From earliest spring to the latest fail,
Whatever you've learned 30 well,
And yet, o cricket! 'twere wise TO him
That your burden from sun to sun
Would fail of charm, could we unllnl
Its mysteries one by one.
Enough! enough, on the rcstful swell
Ofyour weird notes low and long,
To yield ones soul to the soothing spell
OF dreams that are nursed by song.
