SAYRROOK.
Sept. IS, 1877.

Eds. Iel:-We read in the papers very
frequently of the reunion of certain fami-
lies, and how pleasant it was for its scat
tered members to assemble together once
year, so to speak to renew their acquain-
tance. 1t is not of such'a party composed
of relatives only that am about to write,
but of company of friends as well as
relatives.
Father Mitchell and his wife formerly
lived in Sayrook, but for the last ten or
fifteen years they have resided in Concord,
Lake county. The old gentleman, we
think without single exception, has visit
ed Saybrook every year in the month OF
September, remaining over the Sabbath,
and preaching in the Lake shore school
house, in district No. 1.
This year it was planed by some of his
friends to have a pic mic and dinner at his
son-in-law's, Mr.. A. H. Sherman, on the
South Ridge. Among those who were as
sembled at the place alluded to on Monday
of the present week, we noticed Mr.. and
Mrs. Frederick Webb, Mr.. and Mrs. Mar
Gus Hubbard, their son and his wife, Mr..
and Mrs. Baldwin, from the Lake shore,
Mr.. and Mrs. Isaac Flint, Mr.. and Mrs.
Richard Wilkinson, on North Ridge, Mr..
and Mrs. John Alleock and their daughter
Winchell, Rev. Allen Fouts, Mrs. D. Miz-
ener, ]. W. Sims and wife, and sprink-
ling of grand children of the venerable
couple for whom this gathering was made.
The time before dinner was spent in friend
ly greetings and social intercourse. The
older members gave US graphic sketches
of pioneer life in the long ago, when this
township was almost an unbroken forest.
Had the weather been favorable it was in
tended to have eaten the dinner under the
shade of the trees, but as it was little too
shady out of doors, the table was spread
under the friendly roof.
After the company were seated at the
table Father Mitchell requested them to
sing, ''Praise God from whom all blessings
flow, after which .he invoked the divine
blessing for the repast spread before us,
and then we dropped into business. And
such dinner, it was fit for a king; there
was fish, flesh and fowl, apple, peach and
chicken pie, as many kinds of cake as there
are Sundays in month, rice puddings
Dinner over they sang, 'Oh for thou
sand tongues to sing" and then two or
three more hours were spent in social inter
course, and when the time for parting
came we gathered in the .parlor and sang,
Crock of Ages" then prayer by Rev.
Fouts, then five minutes speech by the
DIR. in his own way, then we sang "Shall
we gather at the river" and the benedic-
tion was pronounced by Father Mitchell.
Father Mitchell is in his Slst year, vet
he is wiry and elastic as most men at fifty.
He and his wife will take with them to
their home in Concord many pleasant mem
ories Of this last visit to Saybrook; and
those who were present at A. H. Sherman's
last Monday, will look upon that day as
one round wich memory loves to linger.

Relief WIthoutan noctor-

Though we would by no means be under
stood as deprecating, but rather as recon-
mending, professional aid in disease. there
are multitudes of instances when it is nei-
ther necessary or easy to obtain. A family
provided with a comprehensive household
specific like Hostetter's Stomach Bitters Is
possessed of a medicinal resource ADEQUATE
to most emergencies in which medical ad-
vice would be otherwise needful. That ster-
ling tonic and corrective invariably reme-
dies, and is authoritatively recommended for
debility, Indigestion, liver disorder, an irreg-
ular habit of body ,urinery and uterine troub-
les, incipient rheumatism and gout, and
many other ailments of frequent occurrence.
1t erad1cates and prevents Intermittent and
remittent fevers, relieves mental despOnden-
cy, checks premature decay, and invigorates
the nervous and muscular tissues. Sleep, ,di-
gestion and appetite are promoted by it, and
1t is extremely useful in overcoming the ef-
fects of exhaustion and exposure.

The sight of our Harbor nowadays,
shows the shape lake commerce has taken.
1t is filed with propeIlers of the largest
class, or their consorts, sail vessels, of
greater carrying capacity than these huge
monsters themselves. We counted. the
other day, some nine or ten of these mon
sters stretching themselves along the
whsrves, very much to the exclusion-if
indeed they were present-of less formid-
able craft. Small vessels seem to have
gone out of use, or at least very much
circumscribed in number. The little Can
ada fellows, whose proportions are adapted
to the canal locks, and few craft in the
lime stone trade, or an occasional lumber
man, tells the story of the craft that used
to comprise the lake marine.
Another local feature of our Harbor is
the large amount of ore seemingly occupy
ing every foot of available space Of dock
age, or earth, within reach. If the ore
trade continues to grow upon each previ-
GUS year, shown by this, over all previous
ones, considerable expenditure will be call
ed for in making provision for its storage.
The amount of trade carried on by our
habidashers, with the increasing commerce
of this point, makes considerable activity
to meet the demands of paying cash bus
mess

HOW IT BEGINS.

''Give me half-penny, and you may
pitch one ofthese rings; and if it catch
es over nail. I'll give you three pence" 7"
That seemed fair enough; so the boy
handed him a half-penny and took the
ring. He stepped back to the stake.
tossed his ring. and it caught on one of
the nails.
"Will you take six rings to pitch
again. or three pence?"
"Three pence" was the answer; and
the money was put into his hand He
stepped off, we'll satisfied with what he
had done, and probably not having an
idea that he had done wrong. A gen.
tleman standing near him had watched
him, and now before he had time to
to look about and rejoin his companions,
laid his hand on his shoulder.
my lad, this is your first lesson in
gambling" slaas
"Gambling. sir?"
"You staked your half-penny and
won six half-pence, did you not q
"Yes; l did" *s
"You did not earn them and they
were not given to you; you won them
just as gamblers win money. You have
taken the first step in the path; that
man has gone through it, and you can
see the end Now l advise you to 60
and give him his three pence back and
ask him for your half-penny, and then
stand square with the world, an honest
boy again."
He had hung his head down, but
raised it quickly; and his bright. open
look as he said, sI'll do it il" will not
soon be forgotten. He ran back, ard
soon emerged from the ring, looking
happier than ever. H touched his cap
and bowed pleasantly as he ran away to
