HANCOCK AND ENGLISH CLUB.
The Hancock and English club of this city is
still alive and doing good work. Last night at
the regular meeting the club was addressed by
Hon. Jas. a. Wiswell, and Sheldon F. Barney,
ESQ.,, in two good rousing speeches. Each of
these gentlemen reviewed the action and record
of the two parties, and then of the candidates
for the offices of President and Vice President,
from whom we are 10 choose. 1t was shown
that the Chicago nominations were not what
the people expected. That they were made
simply as compromise nominations. and by no
means stood the test of close examination, or
met the expectations of the people. General
Garheld's Congressional record was examined
in a fair but critical way, and he was found re-
corded on both sides of too many important
measures, and on both sides of too many ques-
tionabie jobs TO make good showing. Many
new things were brought out by these gentle
men, bat Justice cannot be done their addresses
III short sketch like this. The club meets
again in two weeks, and will be addressed by
f. B. Hitchcock, ESQ.,. and P. A. Foster, Esq,
the former having lately espoused the cause of

How Tnunder.Showers Come Cp.

In order TO convey a more definite
idea OF our theory, we will choose n
certain locality which may serve the
purpose OF q diagram to our demon
stration; and this locality shall be the
region of West river. This river takes
its rise among the forests near the sum-
NIT of the Green mountains, at height
of some 1900 feet above the level OF the
sea, and flowing southerly forty or fifty
miles cmpties into the Connecticut
river about two miles north from the
southern boundary OF the State.
During a hot summer day the sides OF
the deep valley of this river rcek with
intense heat. and cause q flow OF moist
air upward toward tie summit of the
mountain reign, from the valley of the
Connecticut, and also from the sea.
This moist air, meeting wi h the gen.
eral current from the southwest, piles
UP an immense mass of cumulus cloud
of many square miles in extent. So
long rs the intense heat prevails, this
cloud increases in size; grows blackcr
with its dense vapor, and casts a
gloomy, lurid glare over the face Of
nature, darker than that OF any eclipse.
The vapor, pushed by the ascending cur
rents of heated mir, attains great height
above the sea, where the mpemture is
very low. But finally, AT that hour Of
the afternoon when the heat begins to
decline, the accumulated vapors, no
longer augmented or sustained by heated
mir from the valleys below, fall in rain.

Words OF Wisdom.

A weak mind is like a microscope
which magniies trining things but cam
not receive great ones.
How narrow our soul becomes when
absorbed in any present good or i'll! 1t
is only the thought of the future that
makes them great.
Spite is little word, but it represents
rs strange a tumble of feelings and COM
pound of dlscords rs any polysyllable in
the language.
The roses of pleasure seldom last long
enough to adorn the brow of him that
plucks them, and they are the only roses
which do not retain their sweetness after
they have lost their beauty.
In the mind Of Col there are but two
women who can be concerned in the lie
OF each man for his good, his mother
and the mother of his children. Out
side of these two legitimate loves. away
from these two sacred beings, there are
only vain agitations, sorroWiul and
ridiculous Illusions.

The Washington Of Italy.

A correspondent of the Worcester
(Mass.) Sry, who witnessed the recep-
ion of Garibaldi at Milan, describing it
says:
The old man was too feeble TO stand,
but would sometimes lift his hand as il
10 salute the crowd. He wore the red
fcz cap, worked in co ors and blue tassel
he is always represented in, and had
something red thrown across one shoul-
der like scarf. The noise of acclama-
tions came roaring down the route, and
as he approached mems lips began TO
culver and women cried, and after he
passed they turned to each other with
wet eyes, shining with excitement, and
congratulated each other that they had
seen him. The intensity of it ali car
ried MS away with it, and we cheered
with the rest. From the open windows
the ladies literally showered him with
flowers, and cried out to him endearing
Italian words.

A Great Spectators Gratitude.

II happened twenty years ago, when
people had an idea that gratitude was
ready to bubble up in the human heart
ut a moments notice. A stock specula-
tor was waiting at the corner of Broad
way and Vosey street for an omnibus.
Whether he fell into reverie over the
graves just over the fence, or was won
dering if Lake Shore would advance
another peg, matters not. A runaway
horse took the sidewalk just below him,
and so deep was the SPECTATORS reverie
that he would have been run down and
perhaps killed had not a friendly hand
clutched and dragged him aside.
My friend, you have saved my lifew
gasped the rescued man, rs he realized
his escape.
Perhaps so, but don't mention it,
Pm glad to have been OF service to
you"
" What is your name?"
"John Smith"
"Well, Mr.. Smith, I'm man who
can return a favor. My gratitude is
more than words can express. What
can do for you?"
"Oh! nothing, | guess"
But | shall. | speculate in stocks.
| shall tomorrow buy $4,000 worth OF
Lime Ledge canal stock for you, hold il
as your broker, and turn you over the
profits for year Such heroic conduct
rs yours must not go unrewarded
Good night, my dear Smith,"
Tradition has il that one year from
that date John Smith sat in his office
A boy appeared and handed him letter.
He opened it to find that it was from
the man whose life lie had saved. He
also found that the $4,000 had been
invested rs promised, but that Lime
Ledge stock had kept falling little all
the time, until S4O0 out Of the $4,000
had been lost. IncIosed was q statement
and bill for this deficiency, which he
was asked TO remit by bearerl
Since that date John Smith has had
hundreds OF chances TO save human life
on our crowded streets, but he has re-
fused TO extend hand in each and
every case. 1t would mako a poor man
OF him in less ,han six months. - Wall
