The Cure for Gossip.

Everybody must talk about some
thing.-The poor fellow who was told
not to talk for fear that the people
would find out that he was a fool, made
nothing by experiment. He was con
sidered a fool because he did not talk
on some subject or other. Everybody
must have something to say, or give up
society. OF course the topics of CONVEX
sation will relate to the subjects of
knowledge. fla man is interested in
science he will talk about science. Ii
he is an enthusiast in art he will talk
about art. If he is familiar with litera-
ture, and is an intelligent and persistent
reader, he will naturally forward litera-
ny topics in his conversation. So with
social questions and religious. Out of
the abundance of the heart the mouth
speaketh. That of which the mind is
full, that with which it is furnished, will
come out in expression. The very SIM
pie reason why the world is full Of gos-
sip is that those who indulge in it have
nothing else in them. They must in
terest themselves in something.-They
know nothing but what they learn from
atN w way III touloC NlOi hIlh oD
servation of their neighbors. What
these neighbors do, what they say, what
happens to them in their social and
business affairs. what they wear, these
become the question of supreme in
terest. The personal and social life
around them-this is the book under
constant perusal, and out Of this comes
that pestiferous conversation which we
call gossip. The world is full of it. and
in a million houses all we the country
nothing is talked of but personal affairs
of neighbors. What is the cure for
gossip? Simply culture.-There is a
great deal of gossip that has no maligni-
ty in it. Good-natured people talk
about their neighbors because, and only
because they have nothing else to talk
about. Gossip is always a personal
confession either of malice or imbeclli.
ty, and the young should not only shun
it, but by the most thorough culture re-
lieve themselves from all temptation to
indulge in it. 1t is low, frivolous and
toe often a dirty business.

A New.England Romance.
Rutland W. Herald.

a correspondent from Boston writes:
We have had April showers enough
this year in all conscience, that Nav.
flowers ought to be abundant; but, alas!
one can only become possessed OF n
poor little withered bunch of half. a-lozen
blossoms, framed III wiry evergreeus, by
buying it of some little ragamutin of a
boy, Or of our Mayilower woman. Have
YOU ever seen our Maytlower woman?
1t you have been in the Hub in the
season you cannot have failed I o notice
her, for she always stands in some door
way near the corner Of Washington and
Windsor streets, With n basket of the
little nosegays, and a patient look on
her poor, pale, wlthered face. She wears
a simple gown, and shawl, and bonnet,
always neat, but q SO poor and pitilull
Did you know that she comes from the
hills of New Hampshire, where May
flowers grow in profusion, and that,
when she was young and charming
like Little BuHercup), her youthful
ftrmer-lover used to bring her great
lunches Of the lovely blossoms fragrant
with dew, and that they used to pledge
each other that this should always be
their chosen flower, and that they would
ever remember? Did you know how
they were secretly married, these young
things, because they stood in awe of the
boys father, n stern. hard old man, who
was, for that place, rich, while she was
only a poor orphan girl who tolled for
her bread? And did you ever think
that that pompous, wellto.do man, who
always stops every morning and after
noon to buy a cluster of Maylowers
from this sad-eyed woman is the very
husband of her youth, who, by n long
train of misiortunes and misunderstand-
ings, vas led to forsake his young wife,
and who has long been married to u
wealthy Boston woman, whose tranquil
happiness the poor forsaken wife will
never disturb, though she knows her
husband well, while he never once has
recognized in her the bride of his youth ?
Probably you may never have heard
this sad tale,-and a strict regard for the
truth, as well rs a dread of possible
libel suits. forces from me the confession
that | never heard it either; but the cid
Maytlower woman is there all the same,
and pompous, well-to-do gentlemen dc
buy flowers of her; and it all may be
true, you know"

A Terrible Fate.

The correspondent of IL German Swiss
paper tells of Il terrible accident that
occurred recently near the Russian
town of Baku, on the Caspian Sea. A
mar of the nane Of RowaleH lived
with his family in a small building
which had been erected in the neigh
borhood of IN exhausted naptha spring,
for the storage and refining of naptha.
As is the custom in Russia, RowaleT
was in the habit before going to bed Of
closing all the doors and windows Of his
house, so rs to exclude AS much rs pos
sible the external air. At four o'clock
in tie morning, his wife having occasion
for a light, Kowaleii rose and struck a
match. The next moment the air was
on fire. The gas from the old naptha
spring had risen through the inierst,ces
of the floor in the house, and finding
no means Of egress, had filled it with
inilammable fumes. La II few seconds
all the eight children of Rowaletf were
either stiilled or burnt alive in their
beds, and the wretched father and
mother managed to crawl to the door,
their skin hanging in shredS from their
scorched bodies, only to die mlserably
Il few hours later. The entire stock of
naptha was Of course destroyed and
the building burned to the ground.

cesses, in this rural kidgdom. Here
the greatest fortune is the
wealth of domestic affections,
and the sweetest sounds the
cadences OF loving hearts. 1t is the
bower of retirement and the home of
the family. Our rural homes should
be as beautiful as our purses and tastes
will enable us to make them. If our
means have provided ample space for
a comfortable house. it should be sur
rounded by lawn and ornamental
grounds, planted with fruit and shade
trees, shrubs, flowers, a well appointed
garden filled with the choicest vege-
tables for the use of the family; and if
keep a horse, we ought by all mean to
keep a COW, as the care of keeping boh
will add but little to a mans labor who
cares for the grounds and garden. If
the family be large and horses are
kept, a good COW will be n comfort and
a pleasant feature of the place at but a
little expense. 1t will be better to have
an experienced gardener lay out and
occasionally superintend the garden
and grounds, unless we a afford to
keep a good gardener during the sum-
me-. knowledge of gardening and
lawn decoration is an accomplishment
suitably becoming the lady and gentle.
man of any we'll conducted rural
home. For unless the proprietors
understand their business, both within
and without doors, the employees soon
become masters and mistresses Of the
situation, and the management OF the
place will be perverted to the interests
OF others. How much. of the happi-
ness Of rural life depends upon the
care bestowed upon the house, the
garden, the frnit, the flowers, the horse,
the COW, and the birds by ourselves, can
only be estimated by him who has be-
slowed that care and who reaps the
pleasure flowing therefrom.

The other day a tall, lean, lank, slab

my medicine, and after taking one dose
it cured him so completely, that he
couldn't cough now if he drank a quart
of vinegar, and it all went down the

fact, that a tablespoonful Of this Won

Discussing the wearing Qualities of
steel rails at a meeling of the American
Institute Of Mining Engineers in Balti-

ceived before leaving the rolling-mill
than from any ether cause | allude
TO the injury inflicted upon them in the
cold Strengthening press, wnere each
blow OF the gag forms n wedge Of the
particles OF steel pressing upon the sur
rounding ones; and thus serving to rend
the rail asunder. i am certain that ofall
the broken steel rails that l have seen,
fully 10 per cent. have been ruptured
at the gag mark. So well recognized is
this cause OF ~breakage that the Troy
works and others have spent large sums
in Introducing machinery to more per-
fectly hot straighten the rails, and thus
leave less work for the cold press.
While | admit that DR.. Dudley's physi-
cal analyses show n difference in the
broken and crushed and unbroken and
uncrushed rails, | am not prepared to
accept these results as coming entirely
from the chemical properties of the
metal. If | mistake not, Z of the %
samples are from crushed rails. May
not these failures have been caused by
mechanically imperfect bars, piped in
gots, or some other mechanical defect :?
Then, again, the possibility of the steel
having been overheated III the rail roll

known that the same steel worked ut
different temperatures will afterward
yield widely different physical results.

Meet Life BraVcly

In almost every phase of life may We
observe that manly stability follows
manly energy. In trials and misfortunes,
those will bear them most cheerfully
who have struggled the hardest to avoid
them. The calamity that comes Through
neglect il hardest to bear. The
%fretful, repining, disseminated MUIR
murer is almost invariably the one who
has put forth the least effort to help
himself. So the promises that are most
cautiously made are the most firmly
kept. The generosity that is guided
by wisdom is most thoroughly depend
able. The love that is founded on re-
spect is the deepest and most perma-
ment. True manliness and and wo-
manliness must combine the element
OF activity and response, of vigor and
calmness, of firm will and and gentle
p!iancy; and those who most faithfully
and theoretically use all their powers
as duty calls them forth will be able to
stand the most firmly and easily, and to
rest the most camly and contetedlv
when the hour OF labor ceases.

HUNG BY THE NECK.
Execution of Buzzcl, at Con-
cord, y. III.

CONCORD, July l9.-Buzzell, the muir
derer OF Miss Hausen, was hanged a
few minutes past II o'clock. He died
in 10 minutes without struggle.
Buzzel passed last nightin company with
Chaplain Holmer, giving most OF his
time 10 religious discussion. He arose
about 1870 and made his toilet in a care
full manner, after which he had breakfast
and passed the remaining time in
quiet conversation with visitors.
At few minutes before IL o'clock
Buzzle's arms were pinioned and
he was led to the Scaffold.
He walked with perfect composure,
though with blanched face and staring
eyes His lips moved constantly as he
stood upon the drop, and phrases like
the following were heard: The Lord
be with me- This is hard, hard; this
is not like Jesus The sheriff quickly
adjusted the black cap and rope, and
soon the drop fell ana his neck was
broken. The remains will be sent to
Brooklyn.
BuzZlc, in answer 20 questions put by
the sheriff, denied the murder, and was
non-committal when asked ii he pro-
cured the murder or knew of the guilty
one As far as known he left nothing
that can be construed into a confession.
