Browns theme was &" Dickens" the great
English author, whose writings he re-
garded as the very best type Of dra-
matte composition in the English
language, and from whose works
he read number of choice se-
lections. He spent some time in compar-
ing or rather contrasting the polished Eng
lish humor Of Dickens, Hood and others,
with the coarser and ruder new American
style of humor as seen in Mark Twain,
Bret Harte, the Danbury News man and
others, from whose writings also he read
several selections. Among the readings
given were the description Of Peggotty's
house in Dombey & Son, Capt Marygold's
auction the Christmas dinner at Old
Scroose's nephew's Mark Twain's Car
uthers and Aurelia the Danbury News
mans vicious dog, AMI how to coop hen,

An Uncomfortable Man.

The wonder is not that Guiteau killed
Garfield, but that he has not in his life
time killed a score of men. One who
has so little control of himself has got
along very well indeed with only one
dead man charged to his account. If he
should he let loose in the world it would
be the part of prudence in it's inhabit-
ants to treat him with distinguished
consideration and to avoid crossing his
pathway with great care. His friend
of one hour is his enemy ofthe next.
The man he asked for Office he suddenly
deemed himself commissioned by. God to
slay. The lawyers who serve him
without reward are alternately the
objects Of his smiles and curses.
Certainly it is ali ungrateful
duty to stand by him as q friend
or advocate. We fear that if Mr..
Scoville had known what was coming
upon him when he married Guiteau' s
sister, he would have abandoned her
even at the altar. The intensest love for
woman could hardly endure the strain
of such contemplation. And here
comes up the question as to how far a
mans duty requires him to stand by his
wife's relations. Humane people will
all applaud Mr.. Scoville that he has de.
cided this question against himself; but
if he had decided otherwise could he
have been greatly blamed ! \ mother
in-law has always been considered
the bette nOir of the married
man; to her his wife owes a
daughters duty, and as wife and hus-
band are theoretically one, the same
burthen may justly fall upon him. But
is it not stretching the thing pretty far
to put brothers-in-law upon the hus-
bands shoulders, and that without limit
as to the brother, in laws wickedness ?
1t certainly requires an angelic temper
and q perfect patience to endure such a
client as Guiteau. There is no doubt
that Mr.. Scoville believes him to be as
mad as March hare and his other
counsel, whom he so despitefully uses,
must have the same profound faitt.
Probably nobody differs from them very
much. He could hardly be so umcom-
Portable man and he sane.

THE Teachers Institute, which has
been holding this week, was Signal sue
cess in point of numbers, and an advance
on its predecessors, we have reason to
believe, in the scope of its work and the
methods of management. Our school
teachers have a good deal to learn and
the institute is the proper place for them
to he taught how little they know in
proportion to what is movable. Every
years experience is of value in directing
the work of these institutes and it is
due to Prof. Shaub and his cOadjutors to
say that the public was never more re-
coEciIed to the expediency of the insti-
tutc as an institution than now.

What N.w Jersey Fisherman Saw 1T
Midnight by tho Light of tho Moon.
The people of the village of Green Bank,
near Atlantic City, arc greatly excited
over the appearance of strange beast in
the swamps along the river. He is not
seen in day time, but makes the woods
resound with his cries at night. Only one
man has been able to obtain a good look
at the creature, and ho is fish.
erman living on the edge of the river. lie
processes to have been all around the
world, but says he never saw anything like
this creature. According to his story, the
animal is composed of two distinct spe.
cies of the natural kingdom. The fisher
man saw the creature at midnight by the
light of the moon and it came out of tue
swamp and approached the river He says it
was more like bear than anything else
when lie first saw it, only it went faster
than bears travel, and gave utterauce to
such rs no other beast ever uttered. When
it approached the waters edge it suddenly
threw itself on the grOnnd, and in an in-
slant its limbs were drawn upout of sight,
and the body and tail of a huge fish took
their place. The creature then jumped
into the river and swan rapidly out of
sight. Mothers keep their children in
the house after dark and the men
60 around armed. One young man saw
the glaring, hideous eyes of the creature
the other evening, and fired seven shots at
it. The only effect the shots had was to
cause tho cries of the animal to ceass for
moment, only to be renewed with increas-
ed vehcmence soon after. On Wednesday
nigh. meeting was held and an organized
band formed whose object it is TO hunt
down the uncanny beast and kill it. The
band is divided into two companies, one of
which is to scour the woods one night and
the other the next night until success
crowns their efforts. All tho rusty wea.
pons Of war times which the neighborhood
possesses are in demand.
