Death AT this Hands OF m woman
New York Times.
The recent death OF Mrs. Ann H;nmap
Kellogg, of Fairfield, Conn, In the
ninety-third year of her age, recalls an
unrecorded incident of the War of the
Revolution" Mrs. kellogg was the
daughter OF Captain Elisha Hinmsn. of
the United States navy, and her mother
was the only American who remained in
New London when the town was
destroyed by the traitor Benedict Arnold
in 1871. At that time Captain Humans
ship was hourly expected to arrive at
New London and it was hoped that he
might come in time to save the town.
Mrs. Human was we'll acquainted with
Arnold, as he had often dined at her
house and had been friend of her huss
band. Induced by anxiety for her bus.
bands safety, che remained after all
others had fled and W atched the entry of
the British from the doorway of her
house. As Arnold rode up he saw and
s4luted her and said that if she would
point out her own property it should be
spared. She pointed out the houses of
several of her neighbors as her own, and
thus saved them from destruction.
Arnold remained on horseback near her
house nearly all day, noting the battle
that was raging at Fort Griswold, on
the Groton side OF the river, where the
tall monument commemorative she event
now stands. Three times we're the
British driven down the hin by the
deadly FIRE from the fort. Then the
ammunition of its defenders became ex-
hausted and they were OBJ iged to surren-
der. The British officer in command OF
the storming party was so enragsd at the
desperate defense of the fort, that, as he
entered it, he asked, Who commands
here ?" Colonel Ledyard replied,
did, but you now," at the same time
surrendering his sword. The officer
received the sword and instantly plunged
it into the heart of the gallant colonel.
An American officer, standing beside his
colonel, snstched his own sword from its
scabbard and in moment the cowardIy
Briton lay dead beside his victim. An
| indiscrimin ate massacre of all within
the fort followed and thirty of the
wounded Americans we're piled into a
wagon that was rolled down steep hill
side to the bottom, where it was dashed
to pieces against tree. Then hurrit d
| preparations were made to evacuate their
| position by the British, Arnold having
learned of the expected arrival of Cap.
tain Human Mrs. Human, having
| witnessed these outrsgss from her house
top, became so incensed against the
traitor that she hurriedly descended from
the roet, took a musket from a closet
where it had been left the day before by
an American soldier, and leveled il at
Arnold as he sat on his horse in Ircnt Of
the house. Taking a long, steady aim,
she pulled the trigger, but the piece
missed fire. Hearing the snap Of the
lock, Arnold turned and asked her what
that noise was. With great presence Of
mind she had dropped the gun, so that
he did not see it, and she answered that
1t was the breaking of a chair.

The Habits of Birds.

At recent meeting of the Maryland
academy of science, Mr.. Otto Lugger
read "a paper on birds, based upon his
own personal observations. Most birds,
he said, take but two meals a day
early in the morning and about dark !;
birds of prey rarely more than one a day
Three hours out of the twenty-louI
seem sufficient rest in sleep fer singing
birds. They are tensibly affected by at
mospheric conditions, singing less, and
les jubilantly during cloudy, wet
weather. Male birds usually mate with
one female and remain faithful to her,
guarding her while she builds the nest
ior the coming brood. and feeding her
while she is inoubating the eggs, or
taking her place while she flies off in
search of food. Birds have little dis
elimination as to what kind of eggs are
placed under them in the nest to ineubate,
and will try to hatch scorns or nuts if
placed in the nest instead of egg0 A
temperature of So degrees Fahrenheit
tor twenty-one days Is required 10 hatch
most birds eggs. The young are not
assisted by their parents to leave the
egg, but when each one has broken its
way out the parent carefully removes
the pieces of broken egg rom the nest.
The young generally emerge from the
larger end of the egg, and, before coming
out, can be beard at work breaking their
way. They are born hungry, open their
mouths for food as coon as born, and are
great eaters. Their eyes open in from
five to ten days When the young bird
is old enough to forage for itself it is
cruelty driven away By the parent birds.
Many birds are much troubled by skin
and feather parasites on their heads and

These figures, says the Christian at
Work, are suggestive, and among the
lessons they teach, not the least impor-
tant is that activity in the Sunday
school work is in exact proportion to the
measure of church prosperity. When
the Sunday-school approaches or exceeds
the church in numbers there is evidence
that the membership is active not only
in Sunday school, but in other christian

RELIGIOUS READING.
.HAvE FAITH.

Dark clouds shut out the sun,
The day is cold and chill;
The birdling's song is done,
The running brook is still;
The leaves. once fresh and green,
Are scattered far and wide,
No pretty flowers are seen
Upon the mountain side.
The dear tried friends OF yore
Have gathered, one by one,
Upon the other shore,
and am left alone.
All hope has left my breast,
only wish TO die,
Oh Father, let me rest
Is now my csaselsss cry.
The insthenei an ,dows creep
Upon the skrts of day,
And. as I sit and weep,
And daylight fades away,
sigh Tor hsa fenly joyr,
And wish hat they were nelr,
And then, n still small voice
sou ads softly in my ear
. ave faith, dear heart, look up,
The sun will shine again,
There's comfort in thy cup,
As well as grief and psin.
1hs birds viii sing once more,
The fettered brooks 60 free,
And round thy cherries door,
The flowers shall bloom for thee.
e Frierds shall about thee rise
TO cheer thee on thy way.
Then, mourne-, dry thine eyer,
Darkness precedes the day.
When, TO dlstrust and fear,
And doubt, thy soul is given,
Remember, God is near,
Work on, and trustin Heaven

A sick senator.

The excessive corpulency of a certain
United States Senator has long been the butt
OF editorial wit and spicy bon DlOts from the
pens of Washington correspondents. Few
persons have suspected that this obesity was
a disease, and liable 10 prove fatal. Yet this
is the sad fact. Excessive fairness is not only
a disease in itself, but one liable to generate
other and more serious ones. Chemistry has
al last revealed safe, sure, and reliable
remedy for this abnormal condition of the
system in Alian's Anti Fat. Distinguish
chemists have pronounced it not only harm
less but very beneficial to the system, while
remedying the diseased condition. Sold by
druggists.

A Ready-Witted Bank Manager.

During the panic of 1S47 the mana
ger of remote branch of joint stock
bank in England called his accountant
aside, after the close of business one
afternoon, and addressed him in terms
something like these: "Now, Mr.. -,
you see how matters stand. / am off to
the head Office for more sash. You
must work the branch through to-mor-
row someho,o-I give you carte blanche"
And he did wisely. His accountant had
just that sort of GOODNESS, with fash OF
audacity in it, fitted for such emergen-
cies. There was a great rush of deposi-
tors with their receipts for payment the
next day. He told them Quietly mend
ing his pen the whitley that he was very
sorry, but recent order of the directors
was imparative-" No deposit to be
taken or paid short of ten days notice."
The manager if ne were at home, which
he would be tomorrow, might, perhaps,
break through the rule; but as for hins
self, he was only clerk, and couldn't
afford to lose his situation. And he
didn't. During the same panic clerk
in the head Office OF one of the banks
which were then run upon had check
presented to him for payment of an
amount which he actually had not funds
in the till to meet at the moment. He,
therefore, with dsring humor, wrote in
the corner OF the check No funds"
which was true enough in one sense
seeing there were no funds in the bank
to meet it-and dishonored the check.
The transaction caused the withdrawal
of fine account, but il saved the bank.
