EDIToR IsTELLIGENcER: Now that q new
Town Council has been inducted into office,
1t will be expected to project reforms OF some
kind, on the principle .that "new broom
s..aaena clean" While it is commendable
to seek the convenience Of tho people in
putting town clock. upon the steeple of
the Court House, it is equally incumbent
to prevent the inconvenience Of any portion
or the community. A nuisance OF long
standing is the market bell, which is caused
to ring at most unreasonable hour in the
morning, aid which does not avail the sup
posed purpose Of its ringing. 1t is an an
noyance to several families, who are entitled
to consideration, and does not meet the OBJ
ject desired iii giving publicity to :no s:.e.
that beef is in the. market, except TO the
very few who arc in close and uncomforta-
BILE proximity to the market-house. If the
bell could be heard over the town, On excuse
might be framed FOR continuance of the
custom. Will the city fathers look into the
matter! RusTfCve.

Greeley's Wood Farm.

Among the recent entries of real. es.
tate sales at the land Office, in White
Plains, is one for eighty-three and five.
eighth acres at Chappaqua, sold to A. ].
Quinby for $4,000. The property is
memorable as being portion of the
Greeley farm, though not Immediately
connected with the old homestead.
This still remains in possession of Mr..
Greeley's daughters, Ida and Gabrielle,
who are living at Tarrytown,-Ida with
her husband, Col. Smith, and Gabrielle
as a member of the household Many
who were privileged to visit Mr.. Greeley
at his Chappaqua home will remember
the hill farm, or the woodland known
far and wide from the mention of it in
the Recollections of Mr.. Greeley.
When a bit of leisure offered itself from
grubbing among his 81 cabbages, or
carrying out his radical ideas on prun-
ing, Mr.. Greeley would harness up a
nondescript vehicle, known in the whole
country around as "Greeley's ark" and
drive out about two miles to the eighty
three acres just now sold. 1t was as

been turned to a possible use rs sheep
pasture, bu. the rest was strewn with
powders and filled with ruts. Mr..
Greeley had planted over the whole plot
crop of locust trees. ("agricola arbo.
rem seret," etc., and these had come
up in rather promiscuous fashion.
Mr.. Greeley drove his stout piece of
horse-hesh among them. in his short
sightedness paying not the slightest at
tention to such trifling obstacles as holes
a yard deep, powders as high, young
saplings or overhanging bouyhs, though
his guests were apt to be of u different
mind, and all the time would talk on
about the great advantages of forest
planting from a politico-social scientific
view. When no visitor offered him a
victim he found his way out to the
wood-farm and chopped about with an
AK. To-day the plot is covered with a
scrubby growth of locusts as big as a
mans arm. t. ...

Church Union,

We ought to take great care to select
honest men for all public offices, and
then we ought to treat them with suf-
ficient respect to keep them honest.
Unsupported charges Of corruption will
breed corruption quicker than almost
any other thing. A man who is con-
stantly called a thiefwill be very likely to
become thief in the end. A servant
that is never trusted will seldom be
trustworthy. The most scrupulous men
are liable to become weary of well-doing
if they are always libelled and calumni-
ated alike whether they do well or ill.
Men who try to do their duty and are
generally slandered for it are in immi-
nent danger of falling, for they are sub
ject to double temptation, one person
before and and one behind, and are
likely to learn to deserve the defamation
at last. Applause for well-doing is one
ofthe sweetest and most effective agen-
cies of virtue-it is an influence that al
ways makes for social order. 1t is get
ting to be almost badge of disgrace for
n man to be elected to public Office in
this country-in this land ofboasted self
government, where such choice should
be badge of honor and pledge of
courtesy. A sad day for America it will
be when the best men all stand aloof
from the polls and say: "No, l cannot
afford to be elected, for l have u good
name, and have a wife and children
who love me and would suffer to
see me abused. cannot accept your
nomination" Already there are good
men who say this, and already our poll
ties is suffering for it. When that time
comes in this country, and it seems to
be Fastening on, when all men shall
say it, free government will be fail
ure utterly, at least for such a people as
We, and the A merican republic willper-
ish from the earth. Let us be wise in
time.
