admit that many fastidious young men of this generation, who eschew pork, are fast dissi- pating the savings of their sturdy sires in l sumptuous living, and the farms cleared and improved with so much toll and privation,
 are, in multitude of cases, passing into the
 hands of pork-eating Germans and Irish. It
 is not among the pork-eaters as rule, that
 we find the victims of Bright's disease, liver
 complaint and palsy. We must seek for oth- l CT causes than pork to account for indigestion
 and other ailments now so common Prom
 inent among these are stimulating the appe-
 tlte by pickles and highly spiced condiments,
 which lead to over-eating"
 | Two converts from Romansm were bap-
 tised recently at West Medway, Mass, by
 the Rev. J. E. Burr. For about three years
 they have steadfastly persevered, though dis | owned by their parents, neglected by their
 countrymen, and injured in temporal things. This couple were the first French converts ever baptised here, and the baptism formula was pronounced in French.
 | The influence ofa consistentChristian ex- ample upon all who see it is far more convin- cing than eloquence of speech. And this in- l f1uence is needed more than pulpit oratory just now to convince the world of sin. When any minister can truly say of his Ipeople, "Yc are our epstle, known and read by all men, " | the gospel he breaches will take effect l Those Christians who regard themselves as of little account because they are not prominent speakers or actors in the more pub- 1io Ioin ho al, +o ol 4l>o should remember that character is vastly more potent than speech.-[ Religious Her. aid.
 Hardly had the excitement occasioned by the fatal accident at Ct. Burlington on Monday, reached it's climax, when the report of still more horrible accident was circulat- ed. A young man named Albert Frein, book keeper in the Monument Mills, Housatonic, in company with Miss Carrie Wood of Housa- tonic and Miss Carrie Bristol of Ct. Barring ton, were rowing on the Housatonic river above the upper dam at Housatonic, and were caught in the rapids and carried over the Miss Bristol being rescued by young man named .Meehan. Miss Woods body was not found until Tuesday noon. That Mir. Frein was respected and loved is attested by the following from the Berkshire Courier of yes terday:
 The deepest grief is felt throughout the en- tire community. If Death had searched the Berkshire Valley through he. could not have found brighter mark than Albert Frein Occupying position of great responsibility, he enjoyed the utmost confidence and esteem of his employers, and it is literally true that he had not an enemy in the world, while every one who knew him was his friend. He had wide acquaintance and was everywhere respected for the nobility of his character, and loved for the deep kindness of his nature. He was expecting to start in about a week with his friend George s, Fuller of Canaan. Ct., for vacation trip to Niagara. He would have been twenty-four years old next month.

 are poor. The blame rests ultimately with
 the people, of course; but the people look to
 the teacher to help them make their schools
 better. Hitherto they have done more tban the teachers. The new methods of instruction are good, but need to be wisely introduced and time should be economized, and the art of awakening interest be studied. A race of competent teachers would rob of its force the complaint against cramming.

 And warriors grown gray in the battle for truth, Yet happy, triumphant as when they begun. Have plead with the aged, childhood and youth To never give up till the Savior was won.

 attract attention in public places and as in
 all such matters, there arc those who think
 the worst and, also those who are 'lenient,
 knowing how gossip misleads and exagger-
 ates It has no bearing, as I can see, upon
 polltlcs and all there is to it is this: Governor
 sprague, accustomed to wealth, luxury and
 honor' has met with reverse and it has tenn
 porarly frenzied him, Thousands of others
 have committed suicide and homicide from
 the same cause in paroxysms of insanity.
 Every medical man knows that when the
 mind is affected, even partially, the whole na-
 tnre and affections are changed A man be
 comes suspicious and jealous, and imagines
 plots and neglect on the part of his dearest friends and acts accordingly; becomes the ac. puser and executioner at once. Mrs. sprague
 after concealing while till it was impossible,
 hees from abuse with the remnant of her own property, to save for her children. In his state of mind he cannot realize that bis own conduct has driven her away, Being lady ana nigh Spirited, unlike many innocent " men who remain till some tragedy takes nlaoo she presumes to defend herself The Tr;h,,ro ; says' 'Ihere is not shadow of wrono nrov. ed against the lady" Many domestic runtnres take place and many lovely regulations are in. Jured by causes that only have their oriyn in diseased mind, and no taint should ever ad- here to friends because of the conduct and ut. terances of such persons; it is like any other fever or delirium, all are liable. A man Ss in- sane tor the time who breaks through all re- straints, makes assaults, using deadly weap- ons, and it is all the worse if he drinks. A woman to take such liberties would be put un. der restraint at once, and rightly, too. Such cases should receive medical advice and treat. ment, and when the mind has recovered it's balance the wrongs imagined will have disap- peared. An eminent physician has said that | Fat the Asylum they judge of the return of A | mans sanity when his love returns for his | friends and calls their presence" Many such troubles would die out but for criticism, gos. sip and exaggeration and the desire for ur
 healthy excitement. MEplorr
