FALL RIVER, Mass. Aug. 3.-The Fall

circular letter which is to be mailed in
New York to-day, addressed to the presi-

GENTLEMEN-It Is our desire to Sc

purpose of obtaining your views as to the

Committee.
Mr.. Mellon says the syndicate which
has been formed represent principally
foreign capital, and that already the
amount subscribed is more than sufficient
to buy the cotton industry of America.
This really IS what is aimed at, and
operations will not be confined to Fall
River but extended to Lowell, Lawrence,
New Bedford and the best mills in the
country. The Fall River mills have
capital exceeding twenty million dollars
and an investment probably of thirty
million dollars or more. Just how
negotiations will be instituted will
interest outsiders as these mills are owned
by thousands of stockholders. The di-
rectors have no power to sell the mills,
and beyond a few hundred shares proba-
bly, little stock could be bought at any
thing like prevailing prices. Mellon is
at Alexandria Bay in consultation with
parties interested in the syndicate, and
in SeptemSer goes abroad to complete
arrangements.

WASHINGTON TAKING THE OATH

and the Chancellor stood Secretary Otis, Of
the Senate small, short man. holding a
Bible on crimson cushion. COnspicuous
in the group were Roger sherman General
Knox, General St Clair and Baron Steuben.
The Bible upon which the oath was taken
is carefully preserved by st. Johns Masonic
Lodge, No. l, of this State. 1t bears this in
scription: ION this sacred volume, on the
thirtieth day of April, 1879, in the City of
New York was administered to George
Washington, the first President of the
United States of America, the oath to sup
port the constitution of the United States"
Chancellor Livingston administered the
oath in slow, distinct words When the BIZ
bic was raised, and as Washington bowed to
kiss it, he said gravely: Il swear" adding
fervently, with closed eyes, 80 help me,
God"
lit is DONE" said the Chancellor; and
then turning to the spellbound throng be-
low. he exclaimed: Long live George
Washington, President of the United
States" This was the signal for the out
burst of pent-up joy and patriotism. A
hurricane of shouts rent the air, and with
the waving of flags and banners lasted for
several minutes A flag was imnedi ately
displayed over Federal Hall as a sign that
the ceremony had been performed, and in
simultaneously all the bells in the city rang
out triumphantly, while cannon doomed
from fort and fleet in every direction.
Washington bowed low to the vast, cheer
ing assemblage, and then retired to the
Senate chamber, where he delivered a
short inaugural address remarkable for its
modesty, dignity and wisdom.
After his address, President Washington,
attended by the Vice-President, Chancellor
Livingston, Cabinet officers and other dig
nitaries, went to st. Paurs Chapel, where
prayers were read by Bishop Provost, one
of the chaplains of Congress The church
was crowded, and the services very i'm
pressive. After they were over the Presi-
Dent was escorted to his residence. In the
evening the city was brilliantly Illuminated,
and the people, who usually retired early,
sat up until late hour talking about the
event of the day which crowned the man
who was first in war, first in peace, and
first in the hearts of his countrymen."

story at which l laughed more than l

about ridiculous goose which was
not content what the dear Lord had
made him, but tried with all his might
to be something else--the foolish Great
ure!
Once upon time, down in G,ouces-
ter, lady, who is q great poultry
raiser, found that one of her turkey
hens was ..clean distracted'' to go to
setting, and there wasn't setting OF
turkey eggs to be found for her any
where Miss Lizzie put on her think
ing-cap; she could not bear poor old
Mrs. Turkey to be disappointed when
she had set her heart upon raising an
other young family. Presently bright
idea came to her, and she went round
to all the nests to see what she could
find in the way of eggs to accommo-
date the old creature. In the hens
nest she found three eggs; in the duck
house there were seven; in the turkey
house four, and in the goose-pen one
big white egg lay all by itself, just
waiting for her.
She gathered all these different eggs
into her basket, and went to the tur-
kev-house determined to crafty Mrs.
Turkey, even if she gave her nestful
of odds and ends to sit on; II she
Matched them, well and good; If not, il
