While negotiations are going on Eng

will try TO get the Governor to give
the same lecture about the LIST OF
May; we should like to hear it and
will be at home before that time.
He has never honored you with a
lecture as he has other places in the

titled to a little attention of this kind
from 50 able a man as Gov. Ferry.
and being near to Portland. those in
tcrested in the question and desiring

Quaint Old Town in Kingston.

At the foot of the world-renowned
Catskils is a quiet village of great an
tquity. Founded by the earliest Dutch
settlers, it natural y partook of the homes
they had left behiud them on the low fiat
lands of their mother country. 1t is here
that our much loved American writer To-
Gated the charming story of Rip Van
Wrinkle, which has been read with SO
much interest by youth and old age. Rip
Van Wrinkle has become historic, and the
scenes of his life are visited by thousands,
The great centennial held at this village
sleeping beneath the shades of the Cats
kills. was an event that was celebrated
with great deal of enthusiasm, and at
tracted the attention of all who love TO
visit localities that carry one back to
earlier times in our history. 1t was at
this place that the first constitution Of the
State was framed, and here was the first
meeting of the State Senate. The old
town was burned by British soldiers, and
marks of their torch can still be traced in
a few buildings that were not wholly de
stIoyed. Many Of the descendants of the
original settlers live in this fine old town,
and they have to tell the strangers of the
privations and losses their ancestors en-
dured for the cause of liberty and freedom.
The bell in the oldest church was sent
over from Holland, and is said to con-
tain large amount OF silver, which gives
it a clearer and richer sound than the
neighboring bells. Not many years since
the common language was that OF their
fathers. But now it has quite passed
away. Still the oldest inhabitants ad
dress each other in the Holland Dutch,
and the long pipes and mugs of cider and
short gowns and petticoats are not entire
ly discarded.

what was the secret OF his success in his
business "Secreti There Is no seci ct
about it, All you have to do is to at

another time he said "The secret of my
success is this never tell what | anu

was nearer the mark. He kept his own
council and never betrayed his best friend
himself. This WAS the secret of the
railroad kings career.

PAY Your DEBTs.-Ctean hands in mat
tiers of money among tie young certainly
ought to be the Indispensable condition OF
gentlcmanliness. Norman who borrows and
does not pay, and does not care whether
he pays or not, is a gentleman, no matter
how witty, or gay, or fine he may be. To
speak in good plain English, the man who
dresses himself at another's expense, not
knowing how to pay, not caring whether
he pays, is a genteel scoundrel' And
vet such things are done by good natured
folk, by kind-hearted people, by persons
who never probe them morally to ascer-
tain what their tendency is, and what they
lead to.

"a LITTLE farm well titled, Il little
wife well wlled,' comes aptly to mind.
We never fancied large farms for those
Of moderate means, The large farms are
not worked so thoroughly as the smaller,
generally speaking, and large farms are
not apt to contain more waste land, that
might be made available to ditching, OF
clearing off stumps or rocks. Then on a
small farm one can give more attention to
gardening. and to fruits, and by combin-
ing, these interests would thrive securely
and the men who hold farm mortgages
could not rob him of a moments sleep
through fear 1f foreclosures.
