BELLEVUE, Ia,
THURSDAY, DECEMBER rs, 1880.

"Ceagressman Springer" says a
Republican paper, "the only Demo
cratic representative from Illinois
elected by an increased plurality, is
the only one who steed eat seuarely
for free trade" Tie others denied
their party and its platform, and
made nothing but lost everything by
trimming and time.serving. When
men forsake principle and right on
account Of a temporary clamor
against them; when men abandon
justice and truth because in the
counsels of the ungodly these things
are at a discount, they may expect
to reap, sooner or later, the bitter
fruit Of disappointment. That our
party leaders have reaped it this
year may Undue them with wisdom
for foor years hence; if not, they
must be blind indeed.

Two John Browns,

Edward Everett Hale at Brown Commencement
think some of the youngsters here who are
listening to me so closely may not know quite
how closely John Brown is connected with the
University. l will tell you then. There are
soldiers here there are men with one arm
here who recollect little unpleasantness a
few years ago which eliminated in 1866 under
"the great leader" But that business was
really settled years before-in prophecy and
in history it was settled in Kansas, exactly as
the battle of Bunker Hill really settled the
American revolution, though we didn't know
it for seven years. So, too, the conflict in Kan
sas really forestated and forearranged the issue
of the great rebellion. Who was the person
who put in action the machines by which the
State Of Kansas became State crowded with
freemen, byRhch those men were able to
fight the battle of squatter sovereignty, and
who fought it rightly, SO that they took the
first colors from an arrogant southern enemy?
That mans name was John Brown, as you re-
member him; I remember him as John Carter
Brown of Providence, the man whose purse
was open from the beginning; the man who
foresaw, as no other man in New England
foresaw, that that battle was to be fought out
on the prairies of the west, and who gave his
time, money and influence toward the coloni-
cation Of Kansas. When the old aboitionists
shrank, when they did not understand the is
sue and thought it was madness, John Carter
Brown of Providence came to the front rank
and was president of the Emgrant Aid Com
pany. Some years afterward he resigned the
presidency, greatly to the grief of the officers
OF the company, among whom was subordi-
nate person. The matter was over, and he
said he did not like to belong to company
that was winding up its affairs That was, I
think, in the year 1859
In October the other john Brown happen
ing to be in Virginia at the wrong time fell in
with people that did not like him, and he found
himself very unpopular. At the north there
were plenty of people who were ready to say that
that was not their affair at all that they didn't
want anything to do with it; that this was
merely mad fanatic. What did John Carter
Brown say to that? He wrote down to Bos-
ton: "For Gods sake withdraw my resigua-
tion as president of the Emigrant Aid compa-
ny. This is not a time when any man who is
honored with bearing the name of John Brown
should shrink from his obligation to the cause
OF freedom" Not another man on the conti-
nent who remembered that the rich Providence
merchant in his palace bore the same name
as the poor wretch standing on the scaffold in
Virginia. But the merchant in the nalace re-
membered it, and he left that memorial for
posterity, and it is his soul that is marching on
on, also. don't suppose there were dozen
men in the world who knew that story be-
fore this moment. have always wanted an
opportunity to tell it in the ,halls of Brown
University, and thank you for giving me
that opportunity.

Our RI1tterf1ieS for .Tuly

During the present month the observer of
nature will find in the fields the beautiful
Italia and Aphrodite, with some of the smaller
silver-spotted butterflies sucking honey from
the thistles and milkweed blossoms. The
black and the yellow swallow-tailed butterflies
are now disappearing from the scene, as we'll
as the earlier brood of the pestilent white cab
bage butterflies which descended upon our
gardens few years ago from Europe. Their
caterpillars are now feeding upon the cabbage
leaves and doing considerable damage in this
country A large number of the 'scut worm
moth now fly into our windows at night, at
tracted by the light; among them the perfect
moth of the "army worm," "Lucania Uni
puncta," appears about the middle of the
month. The larva, or "worm," has now
ceased feeding, and having cast for the fourth
and last time its caterpillar skin, has passed
into the chrysalis or pupa state, where it I'M
dergoeS that mysterious change which trans
forms it from crawling thing Of earth to a
winged inhabitant of the air. In twelve or
fourteen days the great army of worms" will
take to itself wings and fly away to the
swamps and marshes, their natural habitat,
where they will lay their eggs at the base of
tne coarse reeds and grass stalks, which they
can do this year; as the swamps are dry on
account OF the drought. Next season the
worn" can be found by the naturalist in the
swamps and marshes in as great numbers as it
appeared this year in our fields and meadows,
but will not be noticed by the agriculturist,
who will, no doubt, wonder "what has be-.
come of the army worm,' which occasioned
him SO much trouble and loss this year, and
has SO "mysteriously disappeared The hot
weather has fastened the development of the
Lucania, and few specimens of the Unipunc-
ia were taken yesterday.
The magnificent night butterflies, or Bomby-
eide moths; the silk spinners; Cecropia, the
great red brown; Polyphemus, '.the American
silk worm" Luna, the green swallow tail;
and Promethea, the sassafras and wild cherry
eater, are also to be observed flying by night,
or resting on trees and fences during the day.
The Wrigeiia and honeysuckle attract
at twilight many of. the great gray
hawk moths to sip their fragrant Bios

Sphinx, and its congener, the rosy winged

shall we be likely to see the great yellow
spotted hawk moth of the potato or tomato

than twice the length of its body, and whose
wings expand nearly six inches
