that free or slave, if the state err
against Justice, the state will suffer.
Thus she taught this final truth that
penalty follows the violation of law,
and that the truest liberty is the liberty
that recognizes the rights of others and
bows To the sanctity of law. And 40
New England logically believed in
work. Her founders came and they
built the new state in the shadow of
the old New England forest, and on the
hard soil of old New England rock.
But with work of brain and hand, New
England has made an Eden out of rock
and wilderness. More than this she
believed i'll education. The clergyman
who gathered their poor 300 books and
founded Yale college, and those who
fonn led Harvard, were the same men
that built the common school Thus
she educated her children through and
through. More than this, recognizing
manhood, recognizing liberty, recog-
nlzlng responsibility, believing in work,
believing in education, New England
believed in f-gOvernment, and she
laid the town meeting, as the very
cornerstone of our free institutions.
The pendulum has swung far, but |
believe, gentlemen, that this original
New England idea is the only seed
corn from which good government can
come in free state-the town-meet-
ing. | would that we could 90 back
here in our own loved city of Brook
lyn to the idea of the town-meeting
and have Just what government and no
better government than we are fit for
and capable of giving to ourselves
New England believed that the public
service is for the public good, and not
for the party, or for the politician.
She believed, and this crowned New
England belief-New England believed
earnestly, manfully, Loyalty, in the di
vine duty of believing. She recognized
that faith under-lies human effort.
She recognized that there is IA divine
power above she recognized that
there is an eternal hereafter. She be-
lleved that no man does good work
unless he is energized and impelled by
the tremendous power of an absolute
belief and so New England crowned
all her creed with that sublime, that
hOliest attitude of man, belief in what
is above, belief in what is beyond. and
i'll this belief New England has gone
forth and conquered the thought and
culture and compelled the progress of
our people.

Gen. WOOdEOrd Tribute 10 New
England.

The New England creed, and the
New England doctrine Greed is belief
doctrine is teaching. What New Eng
land believed, New England bravely
taught, and what New England taught.
New England has always Loyalty lived
up to. In what did New England be
lieve First and foremost she be
lieved in men. She recognized that il
was for man that labor had wrought,
that science had taught, that art had
cultured, and that Christ had died.
When the Puritan stood covered before
the king, it was because he believed
that the Puritan hat covered an embryo
state, and that man was greater than
king or throne. New England heliev-
ing in man, believed in liberty for man.
True, she passed her blue laws true
she burned her witches but through
all her doings there ran this current OF
her better thought and just as
the stream, muddy at its source.
grows brighter and fresher in its
course, so New England thought at
last ran clear, so her thought is free to-
day, and man is free among New Eng
land hills, and under New England
laws, as he is free nowhere else on
earth. New England believed in men
and liberty at Plymouth Rock, and
when on the shore of that far island
on the southern coast, one of New Eng
lands sons lay buried with the dusky
men he led-for they "buried Shaw
with his niggers" at Fort Wagner
Shaw still represented New England,
and the New England idea of manhood
and liberty. But New England not
only believed in men-she not only be-
lieved in liberty for men, but she be
lieved in liberty that was regulated by
law. She recognized the doctrine OF
responsibility. She recognizes forever
the doctrine of penalty. She teaches
that, saint or sinner, if a man puts his
finger in the fire it will be burned

A Blind Cats Sagacity.


The family favorite whose misfor-
tunes have afforded an opportunity to
observe the workings of instinct under
difficulties is a noble specimen of the
genus felis. Dido is his name, given
for simple euphOny, without regard to
gender. During the four years of his
life he has never been known to do any
thing wrong, unless it be to fight most
desperately against all feline intruders
In some one of his many encounters
Dido met with an injury to one of his
feet, that made surgical operation
necessary, from which he recovered,
but shortly afterward went totally
blind. A cataract was formed over
each eye, by which, as repeated exper-
iments proved, vision was thoroughly
obscured. This calamity came on sud
denly, and placed the cat in circum-
stances not provided for by the ordina-

ing murdered Mrs. Eta Carlton at WATERFOWL,
who was seen Oh the train between Brunswick

der. He was arrested there few days since
at the request of Boston officers TO await eX-
tradition. He had previously been employed
