Lecture on Robert Burns.

The announcement of Il lecture before
the Normal School i'll johnson by Gen.
w. w. Grout, called together the larg-
est audience on the evening of Monday
the 18th, that has been convened in
that town for years. The probability
is that many were drawn more by curl
osity than by expectation of enjoyment
of Il lecture upon IL subject in which
comparatively few are particularly in
terested. Gen. CIRCUITS present political
attitude no doubt led many to think
that the announced subject was but IL
make-weight to bring him before the
people, and that advantage would be
taken of the occasion, to make it the
fulcrum of some sort of political pur-
chase. All who came under any such
impression went away disappointed us
to the motive of the lecture, and much
wiser as to the real dignity and ability
of the man. Henry Clay said, sit is
better to be right than to be president
and Gen. Grout showed by his demean
or and by the true scholarly manner in
which he treated his subject, that it is
better TO be dignified gentleman, than
by the least indirectiOn to strive to be a
successful politician. He did exactly
the thing that he promised to do and
nothing else.
His subject was the Bard of Scotland
Robert Burns. He spoke more than al
hour and half, and though his audi.
ence was wholly promiscuous, will
probably very few persons in it whose
study of the poet qualified them tc
sympathize in advance with the sen.
timents and feelings of the lecturer, ye
so inspiring did he make his subject
that he commanded the strict attention
of all present during that long session
The lecture was more than dry recita
of facts in the life of the poet. 1t re
produced the man himself in a dramat
ic way, and made him re-enact tn,
wonders of his genius from his cradle il
mud howell to the end of his short bu
eventful life. 1t was truly an instruc
tive lecture. The style was simple bu
elegant. The delivery clear and com
manding. The differences practical an,
philosophical, and the impression mad
was such as none but a mind deepl,
imbued with the spirit of the poet coul,
make. AN INTERESTED LISTENER.

A SHOCKING TRAMP OUTRAGE
During the temporary absence of Ed
win Warner of Charlemont, Mass, from
his home on the road to Rowe Thurs
day afternoon, a couple of tramps en-
tered the house and demanded cider of
his wife, who is about 81 years old.
She replied that she had none, where
upon both of the ruffians attacked her,
one of them with cane, and succeeded
in telling her senseless to the floor, after
she had resisted their onslaught brave
ly. Then they carried her to the woods
short distance from the house and
outraged her. She was found two hours
later raving by the roadside, her
clothes and hair dripping wet, and her
bare feet covered with mud. She re-
cOgnized no one, and seemed terribly
frightened. Her consciousness was not
recovered until Saturday, when she
was able to give the particulars of the
assault upon her, and describe the
tramps. Her face is badly cut, her
body covered with bruises, and it is
feared that her nervous system will
never recover from the shock. One of
the tramps is about 40 years old, of
medium hight, broad shouIdered, with
ford complexion and red or sandy
whiskers; the other is younger and
smaller, and has dark complexion.
Officers are hunting for them, the Sc
lectmen of CharlemOnt having offered a
reward of $500 for the arrest and con-
viction of the scoundrels.

The Nations Curse.

Editor Caledonian Morally as well
as politically, we are in a lamentable
dilemma here in the Bay state. For it
is not enough for the masses of the
commonwealth of Massachusetts to
know that six hundred million dollars
are expended annually in the United
States for Intoxicating liquors, or that
from sixty to eighty thousand souls are
sent annually to drunkard's hell but
they yet persist in making the ballot
box and the Legislature the machinery
for the manufacturing of implements
for the devil to prosecute with the
greatest possible vigor and rapidity his
diabolical work.

existence of personal devil. And

The Fever Subsiding.

The South may now confidently hope
that the yellow fever has about run its
course. The heavy frosts have come,
and there is already marked decrease
in the death-rate. 1t has been one of
the most destructive epidemics the
country ever had, and the response to
the appeals of the sufferers has been
without precedent in our history. The
generous sympathy of foreign countries
has been remarkable. One days re-
ceipts at the TrOcadero palace in Paris
have been devoted to the cause, Presi-
dent MacMahon and many other French
citizens. Emperor William and Prince
Bismarck of Germany, have given lib
orally, and subscription of $500 raised
in the city of Canton, China, has Just
been received. The whole amount
raised cannot be less than a million and
a half of dollars. This has not all been
expended, but much money will yet be
needed to repair the desolation wrought
by the fever.

Fun in a Cipher.

The elevated railway doesn't appear

thinks some man ought to invent Il

more noise in the world than powder

to sue the telegraph company for not
delivering those messages. They were
plainly addressed to No. Is Gramercy
Park, but Mr.. Tilden declares he never
got them. Marble has got good thing
on the telegraph company-if he can
only prove up.-The other day Mr.
Tilden laid down his favOrite paper,
the New York Tribune, and picked up
his Bible, and read: "For there is
nothing covered that should not be re-
vealed; neither hid, that shall not be
known. Therefore, whatsoever We have
spoken in darkness shall be heard in
light; and that which We have spoken
in the ear in closets, shall be proclaimed
upon the house tops" And Mr.. Tilden
laid the book away and groaned in the
bitterness of spirit and said he would
bet $4,000 that wasn't in the original
text, but was fraudulent Interpolation
