The Growth OF Temperance.

The following Is from letter written
by William L. Dodge, one Of the lead
ing men in the temperance cause in New
York city. But those of lis who can go
back to the very commencement of the
temperance reformation know that in
all parts of the country outside our large
cities there has been most remarkable
change in the habits and customs of the
great mass of the people as the result of
the temperance efforts. Then there was
hardly Il family of any standing that sat
down to dine without some kind of in
toxicating drink on the table. Men
were hardly expected to work on the
farm or in the shop without their regular
allowance. 1t was kept in every cour-
try store; was used at all public gather
ings, and, in my remembrance. was
passed among the attendants at funer-
ais. AS you sat down at the hotel tables
every second man had his bottle or glass
of some kind of Intoxicating drink.
Now we know that to great extent
this is changed. Go where you will
throughout the country. sit down to the
tables of the great majority of our fami-
lies, and YOU will find no intoxicating
drinks. Sit down in our hotels on the
great lines of travel and you will not see
one person using strong drink, where
fifty years ago, you would have seen ten

returned from an absence of two months

States and over 1000 miles, and l have
seen less drinking and fewer drunkard

Russia's Plight,

A New York paper says: No country
in all civilization seems to be in so
pitiable plight at present as Russia.
In addition to her immense foreign debt
and her general financial arrangement,
her political Affections continually crop
ping out in defiance of law, and mys-
terious assassination, and her losses of
every kind from the late war, she is
threatened with famine. Last year she
suffered exceedingly from drought +;
nearly one-third of her crops were de
stroyed by beetles and marmots SO that
the seed has been deficient, and field
labor is inadequate in consequence of the
excess of holidays-about 100 year
and the widespread drunkenness of many
tof the people, involving great waste
illness. Grain, which is the chief arti-
Gle of export, which furnishes the means
of paying taxes and of getting all sup
lies, now seems insufficient to home con-
sumption. Her domestic debt is very
oppressive. Most of the land of the
empire is mortgaged to bankers, and its
owners are scarcely able to pay their
interest, much less the principal, their
arrears being from twenty-five to thirty
per cent. Russia is a vast country of vast
resources; but she has drawn on them
very heavily OF late, and all indications
are that she is approaching crisis in
her fortunes which will require the full.

Anecdote Of 0u6en Victoria.

The queen was not twenty years of age
when she assembled the throne. Coming
into possession of power with heart
fresh, tender and pure, and with all her
instincts inclined to mercy, we may be
sure that she found many things that
tried her strength of resolution to the ut
most. On bright, beautiful morning
the young queen was waited upon at her
palace, at Windsor, by the Duke of
Wellington, who had brought from
London various papers requiring her
signature to make them operative. One
OF them was u sentence of court martial
pronounced against % soldier of the line

"What has this man done?" she asked.
The duke looked Mt the paper and re-

Wellington shook his head. " Oh! think

What Came Of Planting Trees.

About twelve years ago gentleman
engaged in business in New York city
purchased farm in the interior of that
State, and set about improving it in ac-
coIdance with his own tastes and no.
tions. The farmers about him at first
laughed in their sleeves ut his attempts
at "book farming and predicted Ger
| tain failure rs the result of his expert
| ments. Being an admircr Of the beauti-
| full. his first move was to surround his
place with shade trees, and to give orders
for their careful attention and culture
He next employed the columns of n local
vantages of trees, not only for shade and
shelter but also as means of protection
against storms. A circular was printed
and distributed, setting forth the matter
more fully, and giving directions rs to
what varieties to plant, and how tocare
for them after being set. Meetings We're
called and the matter discussed, until at
length the neighborhood caught the
spirit of progress, and tree planting
mania set in. The highways Were
| adorned for miles, and yards heretofore
| bare of shade were now adorned with a
bountiful supply. The good influence OF
| that mans example spread until the
leading roads in the whole town were
coverted into avenues of shade, and the
unattractive village transformed at
length into one of the most lovely towns
in Central New York. A short time
since the place was visited gentleman
from the city-a son of the party who
| first led the way in tree planting-and it
was with difficulty that he recognized
the spot. The old farm and the neigh
bors' farms and the village streets were
adorned with graceful elms and naples
from twenty to thirty feet in height.
Strangers had heard of the place, and,
attracted by its beauty, had chosen it
for their home, and fine residences now
graced the shady avenues. The old
farm, which his father had purchased
for Sll 200. has been since resold for
$40, 200, and like advance in property
has taken place throughout the town.
The gentleman "builded better than he
knew We doubt not whether, with
all his far-sightedness, he ever ex-
pected such results as have followed
from his efforts.-'S. Paul Pioneer Press

Bees on the Wing.

When swarm leaves for the woods
they are off before YOU fairly know it.
They drift away from the hive in a wide
spread and apparently aimless concourse,
then suddenly gather up their skirts,
draw together their forces, and away
they go, a humming, flying vortex of
bees, the queen apparently in the center
and the mass revolving about her as y
pivot, over orchaIds and meadows,
across creeks and swhmps, or woods and
deep valleys, straight for the appointed
tree, slow at first, so that you can keep
up with them, but presently with a
speed that would tire fox-hound. In
this flight the individual bees do not
move in right lines, d. straight forward

like chaff in a whirlwind; unitedly they

quarters in the hollow trunk of an old
