said:

1dolatry in India.

Captain Cr,likshank, of the English
army, tdld a little about idolatry in In
dia at tile Richelieu the other evening.
sit seems as if there were more idols
than pePple in India, " he said. "They
are madk of stone and metal, and some-
times of wood, and you see them under
every shady tree. 1t is like reading al
chapter from the Bible to walk about
some Of the groves, While most of the,
temples %e of wood, some Of them are.
made Of $lid marble and gold. The GUS
tom Of worship is amusing. The devout
Indian UPON reaching the temple first
rings a bill. That is to notify the god
that he is bn hand to do business. After
that ceremony the worshiper repeats his
prayers, aid then deposits his offerings.
These con sist of rice, grain and cloth.
They Daie afterwards put in the holy
cart and hold. The priests have. no
trouble in telling them, for holy food is
always Quilted high. Twenty loads Of
holy food can be sold in the time III

been in th temple. The ceremony Of
putting tneRods 10 sleep would make q
saint laugh[ The worshipers assemble
in the temph and blow on horns, yell and.
shout at tlt top Of their voices. This
resembles an American Indian war dance,
and it is Rpt up all the night long.
Other ceremlnies are as strange, and the
work of civiIzing does not progress rapr
idly. Buddhism did more than anything
else to reform idolatry, but the people
have drifted lack to the same old habits.

BETRAYED;
A DARK MARRIAGE
MORN.
A Romance of LoUe, Intrigue and
Crime.
By MRS. ALICE p. CHARLESTON.
CHAPTER v11.-tcontinued,.


The intellectual superiority of Ellis
ton, refined and insolent as it was, aided
to blind Slyme, showing him evil which
was not only prosperous but was also
radiant in grace and prestige. For these
reasons he most profoundly admired his
employer admired, initiated, and hated
himl
The magnificent Elliston professed for
him and for his solemn airs an utter con-
tempt, which he did not always take the
trouble to conceal; aud Slyme's limbs
trembled when some burning sarcasm fell
from such a lofty height ON the old
would of his vanity--that wound which
was ever sore within h m.
What he hated most in his employer
was his easy and insolent triumph-his
immense and unmerited fortune-all
those enjoyments which life yielded,
without pain, without toll, without con-
science-peacefull tasted.
But what he hated above all, was that
this man had thus obta ming these things,
while he, Oscar Slyme, had vainly striven
for them.
There was yet one thing more; he had
looked upon the Young wife of the for
tunate man whose bread he ate, and seen
that she was wondrously, surprisingly
lovely, and, like all who had ever come
within the magic circle of her baneful
influence, he had speedily succpmbed to
her powers--aye, the time quickly came
when he loved her with fierce and mad
dening passion, when he would gladly
have run any risk, committed any crime,
to win single smile of approval from
her beautiful lips.
OF course Cora was not slow to see and
understand the power she had gained
over the secretary, and that one word
from her sould make him her willing
slave; but for time she treated him
coolly, even contemptuously.
But when she wanted an instrument
wherewith to reach the heart Of the man
who had calm y and deliberately sighted
her protfered love, here was one ready to
her hand, and she scrupled not to make
use of it.
"Take a seat, Mr.. slyme," said the
lady, hastily throwing the paper on the
floor, "and tell me where in the world you
have been ever s nee last evening"

4Ahl to be sure the papers say SO, and,
thanks TO rapidly conceived plan of
my own, which must say carried out
most admirably, her husband thinks SO,
too; and now it only rests with you to
say whether or no he shall ever be unde-
ceived."
Lauding your wonderful abilities
again. see, Slyme; that's particularly
bad habit of yours. But no matter-what
do you mean? How does it rest with me?
Please explain yourself. Tell the whole
story, and begin at the beginning, if you
please.
Slyme flushed painfully at the rebuke
he had received, and, moving uneas,ly in
his chair, he commenced his story, speak
ing in low and rapid tone, his eyes The
while wandering about the partially
lighted room. and never for more than q
moment at time resting on the lady's

Addison County for Woodbury..
LFr9m the Middlebnry RcgIster.l

From the Mlddlebury Register
Mr.. Woodbury. and Mr.. Page are known
as far sighted, enterprising and successful
business men The records of both are
clean, nothing to tho contrary having been
adduced by the enemies of either up to date.
No one cares a cent for the 'prcmotion'
bugaboo one way or the other nor Is any
stock taken in the charge that Mr., Page
has unworthily used his position as chair
man of the republican State committee to
further his own political fortunes. 1t is
the almost universal opinion that as to
character and attachments these gentlemen
are about on IA par, and that either of them
would make cTeditable chief magistrate.
At the same time there is feeling that no
particular reason exists for the elevation Of
either to the highest office in the gift of the
people of Vermont, and that the burden of
proof is upon each to show why he himself
should have the place not why his oppo-
nent should not. But it is plain that one
or the other Will be the candidate, so that
choice must be made; and the people of this
county have very largely chosen Mr. Wood
bury. Exactly what the ground of that
deciSon is it would be difficult to state
fully but the decision is fact. Probably
the older men base it to considerable ex-
tent upon the war record of Col. Wood
bury, thinking-and justly, too--that when
one of two men up for an honorable place
was a good soldier and the other st aid at
home for whatever cause, the soldier de
serves the honor, The younger voters, to
whom the war means less, are willing to
accept the Judgment of their elders; and so
it has come about that the condition Of
things, as we understand it, is as above set
forth,
