ASHES FROM THE vEsrAL FIRES.
Some Recent discoveries at the Tenn
pie Of Vesta fn Rome.

Some Recent discoveries at the Tenn
pie of Vesta fn Rome.
A highly interesting discovery has just
been made on the Forum by the cele-
brated German archRologist, Prof. H
Jordan, author of Topographic der Stadt
Rom i'm Alterthum," in connection with
some excavations which he has obtained
the permission of the Ministry of Public
Instruction to make around the remains
of the Temple of Vesta. Since the discov-
cry, some 10 years ago, of this shapeless
wreck of what was little else than the
more concrete core of the Podium, moth
ing has been done to ascertain the exact
line Of the level on which it stood, or what,
| if any, remains of the external features Of
| the stonework existed below the actual
| level of the Forum there.
The object of Prof. Jordan's excava-
| tions was to clear up these obscurities,
and especially to ascertain the exact peri
| meter of the temple which would give
also it's exact position with reference to
the House of the Vestals. This he has
succeeded in doing but in the progress Of
the work he made the unexpected discov-
cry, just within the outline of the Podi-
um, of rectangular hole, measuring one
meter on each side and two meters in
depth, and lined on the sides and at the
bottom with large slabs of peperino stone,
some 20 ccntimeters in thickness. The
bottom is perfectly closed, and the want
of any aperture in it shows that it could
have had no communication with the
sewers.
Prof. Jordan is of opinion that this place
is neither more nor less than the recepta-
Gle for that refuse which was allowed to
accumulate during IL months, and then on
the 18th of June, was carried through the
Porta Stercoraria, and according to Ovid,
| ("FaSti, " book q, line G00,) thrown into
the Tiber. If Jordan's opinion be cor
rect this refuse, therefore, notwithstand-
ing the foul name given to it, (see Var
70" line 632O must have been simply the
ashes of the sacred fire kept ever burning
in the Temple, which were themselves
considered as too sacred to be thrown out
daily on to n common dust heap. And
with them may also have been the sweep
ings of the Temple, which probably were
held in no less reverence than those of the
Holy House of Loreto are in our own
days.
TO hear the definition which Jordan has
just given of his discoveries around the
Temple of Vesta, illustrated by plans and
sections, all the German, Italian. and
French archaeological notabilities in Rome,
including Mommsen, Gregorovius, the
two De Rossis, Fiorelli, Castor Boissier,
Leblant Director of the French Archa o.
; logical Institute at Rome: the learned
. Countess Lovatelli, Prince Odescalchi,
Baron Won Keudell, the German Ambas,
sador, and, of course, the learned Score,
taries Henzen and Helbig, assembled al
the German Archaeological Institute, and
not one dissentient voice was raised in op
position to Jordan's opinion, either there
! or afterward at the scene OF the eXcava
lions, to examine which we followed him
on to the Forum.-Rome dispatch in Lon

Mrs. S. Noyes of Columbia, N. H.,
and her sister, Miss M. Donnelly of
North Stratford attended our church
services last Sabbath. Many thanks
are due Mrs. Noyes for her able assist
ance in the choir, also for the duet she
sung with Mrs. Fuller in the Sabbath
School. We have seldom heard a finer
alto. Miss Maude Chandler sung her
solo very sweetly on the same day;
she deserves our appreciation for the
readiness with which she always does
her part when called upon.
The No. Stratford Band serenaded

The farmer tips hack in the old oaken chair.

stool;
And he dream : Of the days whom his prospects,
were fair,
And he worked all day in grocery cool.
How he measured out sugar for Mary and Rose.
And liberties never once took with tie till;
When he wore patent-leathkrs that ruined his
toes,
When he called on Jemima, Just over the hill.
He thinks of the days when they roamed
through the glade,
And heard the shrill notes Of the gay wh'pi

When they dreamed of a neat little cot in the
shade,
OF button-ball hanging Just over the rill.
He looks at these pictures through spectacles
bent, .
And Jenlima he sees In a vision Of bliss,
Just the same as she looked in the days when
he leant
The wicket across for the tra-la-la kiss.
He thinks Of the years that he's worked over.

Prince B;smarck's private affairs, says
the London Times, have just been inves-
tigated by the committee charged to pur-
chase his ancestral estate of Schonh ausen,
in Altmark, as national present to the
Prince on his SEVENTEEN birthday. The
revenue of tic estate of Varzin, in Pome-
rama, presented to Prince bismarck by
the nation in 1857 is nearly e2,090 a year.
The great forest property of Friedrich
sruhe, in Lauenburg, was presented to
the Prince in 1871, The timber on the es-
tate brings in 81, 900 year and the farms
about 81, ECO. The rental of Schonhausen
is $1,000 a year. Prince Bismarck has
erected extensive paper mills and manu-
fact cries both at NarZin and Friedrich
srnhe, and these have proved very sue
cessful and bring him in nearly 10000 a
year. His annual income therefore is up
ward of e1S,0O0, exclusive of his salary as
Chancellor (f2,700 and allowances) and his
pension of ESQ as former Minister of
lauenburg. The Prince is most enter
prising landlord and has greatly increased
the value of his estates by iudicious inn
provements. lie is as thorough" in the
management of his private affairs as in
his public administration.

ID. G.. Frost and his assistant G. A.
Sperry gave a series of entertainments
in the Island Pond Hall last week.
AT each entertainment Mr.. Frost de-
livered lecture on Intemperance.
The singing was fine, and in some re-
spects Mr.. Frost is a good speaker. He
portrays the condition Of inebriety in
a graphic manner, being somewhat
theatrical in his style. His methods
are somewhat similar to those of Muir
ply. lie believes in the power of God
to aid the fallen and that it is all suffi-
cient for any emergency. But he is
not teetotaller, has DO pledges, and
differs in his theories from the general
run of lecturers on this subject. On
the whole his entertainments are quite
pleasant. We have no disposition to
argue the various theories and m0dus
operandi of the different branches oil

agree, and each comedies that the gen,
eral purposes and objects of the Others
are good, why do they oppose or criti
else the work of each other or theil

mence, and then exclaim, "Why dom

We call attention to O communica
ton elsewhere in our columns from Mr..
j. b. Grant, for the purpose of saying
that our previous statement was made
from rumor, and we most cheerfully
give space for its correction, at the
same time regretting its necessity. We
should have notified Mr.. Grant that
we were going to publish it if we had
had any doubts about its correctness,
he having assumed the temporary
performance of the duties of the office.
With the fact of his peculiar fitness
for the place, and seeing his perma.
nent appointment to be so consistent
with what we regard to be the nature
of the civil service rules and the good
of the service, we were naturally led
into error.
P.S. Since the above was in type
Mr.. Grant has informed lis that Mr.
Doak, lawyer of Coaticook, has re-
ceived the appointment.
