In point Of longevity, Mansfield is
credited with the best record among
Connecticut towns. The oldest inhabl-
tant is ninety eight years old. and
within the last half century twenty
eight persons have died whose average
age was ninety years, four OF
whom were over one hundred years old.
Mrs. Mary Southworth died at the age
Of one hundred and two. About one
hundred persons. it is said, have died
within fifty years upward OF ninety
years old. At present there are forty
nine persons over eighty years old in
the place.
The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1884-05-21

The period between 1880 and 1909
cannot fail to excite the liveliest inter-
est with astronomers, as the four great
planets, Saturn, Neptune, Uranls and
Jupiter will then be IN periheilon Tor
the first time in about 1000 years, ana
in consequence of this remarkable event
il is believed that the climatic condi-
tions of the earth will be disturbed and
produce alternate degrees oil excessive
heat, cold, rains, floods, hurricanes ana
fatal epidemics. During the sixth and
sixteenth centuries of the Christian era
three of the above planets were in peri
helion, and from that or some other
cause floods, hurricanes, earthquakes,
sickness and the plague extended over
the world and destroyed vast amounts
of life and property. In the sixth CEN
tury the plague broke out in the East,
and sweeping over Africa, Asia and
Europe, billed, it is estimated, 100, ,000,-
900 people. The city OF Alexandra lost
200, 900 inhabitants. In C0nstantinople
1000 died per day during three months,
and in and around Rome during the
same time 3, 200 died per day. A large
number Of cities, villages and provinces
in Eastern Europe. Western Asia and
Northern Africa were almost depopu-
lated. and remained in that condition
several centuries. The people fled
panic-stricken in every direction, and
for miles around these cities the dead
were left unburied, and thus, filling the
air with pestilential odors, added ad-
ditional horrors to the scenes OF distress
aud misery. In the Sixteenth century
the plague ravaged the world again.
Constantinople lost 200. 900 people, and
In and around Rome. Naples and other
cities of Italy, 100000 died in five
years.
Fifteen millions perished in China
and 30. 200, 900 died in the countries
bordering on the Red, Black and Med
iterraneau seas. Marseilles lost 5000
inhabitants in six months, and in aud
around London $50 900 died in three
years, aud in that city fires were kept
burning day and night long time to
purify the air, which seemed vitlated
for several years. Ireland lost 300, 600
people. Paris 100. 600 Madrid 10000,
Alexandria 80, 900, and the total loss OF
life by the plague and famine OF the
sixteenth century is estimated at l2O,-
600 900. II the foregoing calamitles
were the result Of three planets in peri
helion, what may be anticipated from
the four now approaching perihelion:
The theory entertained is that the peri
helion of the four great planets will at
feet the sun. and the sun in turn Will lc-
juriously affect the earth, and hence
disastrous consequences to life and
property will follow. IN. Y. World.

SOntheY's EgOtism.

OF q writer who formed the most
exaggerated and erroneous notions
about the merits of his works, no bet
ter example could be given than
Southey. He was indeed, as Macau-
ley remarked in his diary, arrogant
beyond any man in literary history,
for his self-conceit was proof against
the severest admonitions, and the ut
ter failure of one of his books only
confirmed him in his belief of its ex-
cellence. When William Taylor ask
ed him who was to read his massive
quartos on Brazil, he replied: ''Th9t
onoe he should by other means have
made such a reputation that it would
be thought a matter of course to read
them About "Kehama" he wrote:
81 was perfectly aware that | was
planting acorns while my contempt
raries were planting Turkey beans.
The oak viii grow, and though | may
never sit under its shade, my children
will" To one Of his contemporaries
he writes in 1905: mo further news
of the sale of the Madoc. The re-
views will probably hurt it for
while; that is all they can do. I'm
questionably the poem will stand and
flourish. | am perfectly satisfied with
the execution-now, eight months af
ter its publication my cool judg
ment. William Taylor has said it is
the best English poem that has left
the press since Paradise Lost. In-
deed, this is not exaggerated praise,
for there is no competition. On an
other occasion Southey writes: 'Ths-
laba' is finished You will l. trust
find the Paradise a rich poetical picture
a proof that / can employ magnii
cence and luxury of language when
think them in place. One overwhelm-
ing propensity has formed my destiny,
and marred all prospects of rank or
wealth; but it has made me happy,
and it will make me immortal. In
a letter written in 1916 he modestly
remarks that nothing could be more
absurd than thinking OF comparing
any of his pieces with Paradise Lost, "
but that with Tasso, with Virgil, with
Homer there might be fair grounds of
comparison! Nor did he think more
meanlv Of himself as an historian, for
he predicted that he would stand
above Hume, Robertson, and Gibbon;
nay, he went even further, and chal-
lenged comparison with the Father of
History. II have hattered myself "
he says. that my history Of Brazil
might m more points than one be
compared to Herodotus, and will here
after stand in the same relation to the
history of that large portion of the
New ~ orld as mis- history does to that
of the OId.-Chambers' journal.

from our midst, warning him that if

And then, after a few remarks on
other subjects. he said:
And now, Malcolm, a word regard

tage in the park is empty since Carter

at his own door.

And they kept their word, both of
them, and before another year had
passed away not only did the young
squire bless the storm that drove him
into the shelter of Malcolm Wansley's
humble cot, but his tenants of every
class had cause to turn their blessings
in the same direction.

Sickness vs.. Health.

How little we estimate the bles-
sing of health, has been said many
and many a time, and still may be
said in truth. We take the blessing
as we take the shining OF the sun, the
cooling rain, the sweet spring water,
all as our common heritage. 1t is
only by deprivation that we learn the
comfort of possession. 1t is only when
unconscious of our members or organs
that we are ungratefully unthankful
for them. Let us find ourselves de-
prived of the use of a foot, even tenn
porarily and low we envy those who
can walk and run around us; and how
we envy the sound lungs that draw
in deep breaths of the air by which
we live so with every organ, every
member, the discomfort of one
is the discomfort of the whole; the
harmonious of the whole is health,
which is few if any will deny, the
greatest of all physical blessings.
What is the use of riches to the in
valid? What are fine furniture and
fine surroundings to body racked
with painl What is delicate food to
a stomach that rejects jt} What IS
even lovely music to tortured headF
And yet when health is again restor-
cd, how soon all this is forgotten, and
we take up our little grumblings or
great dissatisfactions, forgetting to De
thankful for the restored use OF BODY
and limbs. And why is thisl Is IN
gratitude so common to a human
being that we do not even perceive IL
in ourselves, or are we so badly edu.

the common blessings of lifel or IS

destiny of man that anything that
falls short of it, excltes his repetition

Dear good farmer DO you KNOW
OF the wealth there is in fruit trees,
For the labor you bestoW!
How the apples turn 20 money,
with the peaches plnms and pears
And the luscious bright rcd cherries
M the fruit the orchard bears!
Little children love the fruit trees,
How they wait. with what delight,
For the coming Of their blossoms;
In their robes of pink and white.
Never flowers were half so pretty.
Never such prolusion shown;
As Dame Nature give the fruit trees,
With glory all their own.
Set ont trees upon the common,
Ashes, linden, poplars, birch;
Set them out around the schoolhouse,
Plant them thick about the church.

And the public walks as well,
And the Joys from these arising

These shall live, and grow, and gladden.
While we moulder meath their leaves,
Let as then improve the present,

ability | had, that the convention would

great love of humanity, was willing to

have looked into all of the States of this
