The Contrast of Fifty Years.

From the Philadelphia Record.
A Philadelphia who had previously
overlooked Ocean Grove, n. j., in his
sight seeing was surprised upon visiting
that place last week to find that at mid
night on saturday gates were thrown
across the roadways of that popular re-
sort for the purpose of stopping Sunday
traffic. Vehicles were denied admission
to the place, and even the railroad trains
that approached the station were not per.
mitted to take on or drop passengers on
the Sabbath. Those worldly people who
persisted in travelling on Sunday were
compelled to drive to Deal Beach station,
two miles beyond. One of the proudest
boasts of the promoters of Ocean Grove
is their assertion that upon its beautiful
lake not an oar blade glistens on Sun
day.
To the present generation of Philade'-
phians this external observance of the
Sabbath may seem rather marked but it
should be recalled that the religious rig
idity that prevailed in this city fifty years
ago was greater than that now main
tanned at the famous camp meeting
ground of the Methodist. In 1890, VIII Il
Mrs Trollope visited Philadelphia, she
made special note of this feature of our
city, and i'll her oook on domestic Nan
ners of the Americans" she exclaim ed:
''Surely there is no country in the
world where religion makes so large a
part of the amusement and occupation of
the ladies. Spain in its most Catholic
days could not exceed it, The religious
severeity of European manners is in
nothing more conspicuous than in the
number of chains thrown across the
streets on Sunday to prevent horses
and carriages from passing

| The moon was aioat
| Like golden boat
On the sea-hlue depths OF the sky,
When the Miller of Dee
With his children three,
| On his fat red horse rode by.
Whittier away, o. Miller of Dee?
| Whittier away 50 latc:'
Asked the toll1nan old with cough and sneczc,
| As he passed the big toll-gate
| But the Miller answered him never word
Never word spake he:
He paid his toll and he spurred his horse.
And rode on with his children three
Hes afraid to tell - quoth the old toll-man,

| But III follow you up and lind out where

The moon was afoat,
| Like golden boat
Nearing the shore of the sky
When, with cough and wheeze,
And hands on his knees
| The old toll-man passed by.
Whittier away, o toll Imam old?
Whittier away 50 fast?'
Cried the milk maid who stood at the farm yard
bars
When the Ioll-Inan old crept past
The toll man answered her never word:
Never a word spake he:
Scant breath had he at the best to chase
After the Miller OF Dee.
''He won't tell where
Said the milk-maid fair,
But I'll find out.' cried she,
And away from the farm.
With the pail on her arm.
She followed the Miller of Dee.
The arson stood in his cap and gown.
Under the old oak tee;
And whittier away with your pail of milk

But she hurried on with her brmming pail.
And never word spakc she.

Troubled and sore perplexed
After the constable. two ragged boys,
To what the fun would be:
And little black dog with only one eye,
Was the last OF the nine who, with groan and sigh
Followed the Miller of Dee
Night had anchored the moon
Not a moment too soon
Under the lee of the sky:
For the wind it blew,
And the rain fell too
And the river of Dee ran high
He forded the river, he climbed the hill
He and his children three:
But wherever he went they followed him STILL
That wicked Miller of Dee
Just as the clock struck the hour of twelve
The miller reached home again,
And.when he dismounted and turned. behold
Those who had followed him over the wold
Came up in the pouring rain.
Splashed and spattered from head to foot,
Muddy and wet and draggled,
Over the hill and up to the mill.
The wretched company struggled.
They all stopped short, and then outspake
The parsOn, and thus spake he:
"What do you mean by your conduct tonight,
You wretched Miller of Dee?'
Il went for ride, nice cool ride,
and my children three:
For took them along as always do

troops, and old men wept over him. Both
Tilden and Seymour were great meu, de-
serving of prominence in the era that
gave them birth; but nature had cast
them in different molds 1t was treat
to visit Horatio Seymour in his old fash
ioned neerfield home, in which he was
the most charming of hosts. At Tilden's
home the atmosphere was one of more
restraint, and the guests We're made to
feel that it was an honor to meet the
grave, quiet man whose surroundings
were the refinement of elegance. Yet it
is a matter of deep regret to-day that cir
cumstances obliged me to cancel an en-
gagement for an afternoon visit to Grey
stone on the 25th of last month, and to
stands, forever. 1t would have been
something to have carried away the
memories of some of the last hours in the
life of a statesman who will always stand
prominent in our political history, as it is
now one of the pleasant remembrances of
the past to recall many sunshiny after
moons passed in the historic home of
"The Deerfeld Farmer"
Political life makes queer revolutions.
1t is estimated that Mr.. Tilden's wealth
will reach fifteen millions; and the public
are anxious to know what he has done
with it. He had nephews and nieces who
would cheerfully, of course, bear the re-
sponsibilites of riches but an idea has
been current for some time that New
York city would receive large slice in
the way of a new library, with Mr.. Til
den's ample and well selected collection
of books for foundation. But all this
is mere matter of conjecture. Hubert
o. Thompson made money in politics, but
he spent it in the same way, as is usual
with the professional politicians. A week
before he died he was estimated to be
worth half a million dollars; week after
his death his entire estate is estimated at
$4,000. The moral is obvious but useless
Another political comet, Flynn by name,
has already climbed the horizon, ard
people point at his estimated estate of
million; with five or six more to come
from the new aqueduct and sub way con-
duits, and long to go and do likewise. 1t
is the rising sun that is always worshiped,
as Thompson and Tweed found out be-
fore they died. And even Tilden had an
uneasy suspician of this truth, and to the
last he liked to be talked of in connection
with the Presidency.

Many a case supposed to be radical lung
disease is really one of liver complaint and
indigestion, but, unless that diseased liver
can be restored to healthy action, it will so
clog the lungs with co:rupting matter as TO
