The October NInRnzines.

A clear and practical article in the Sep
tember Lippincott upon Electric lighting" ,"
by the English scientist Sir David Salo.
mons, will find many interested readers.
For though the electric light has como into
such general use, it is but little understood
by the general public. The article treats
also of electric motive power, which is as
little understood as electric lighting.
Peterson's magazine for October has been
received. The steel engraving, Before
the battle, is a very handsome picture pre-
senting the portraits of Minna Irving, the
popular poetess, aud her soldier husband.
The fashion plate and illustrations present
some new aud effective fall styles. The
literary part of the number is excellent.
Fresh improvements are contemplated for
the coming year, which will make Peterson
more attractive than ever.
There are excellent articles, with good
portraits, in the New England magazine for
October on two great Euglshmen promi-
nent in the religious world-Cardinal New
man and Stopford Brooke. Professor
Genung of Amherst gives his estimate of
Cardinal Newman as a writer, and William
Clarke brightly treats of that antipodal
English leader, StopfOrd Brooke. Recog-
nizing the widespread interest which has
been awakened in regard to the hill towns
of New England, the magazine continues
in this number the agricultural articles that
have been attracting attention to its pages
President Goodell has a finely illustrated
article on the Massachusetts, agricultural
college which accompanies in the same
issue, an article on agricultural education
by Mr.. Reeve.
Theodore Chid's series of papers on South
America, now being published in Harpers
magazine is attracting wide attention, not
only on account of the freshness and time
illness of the articles, but also because of
the valuable character of the information
which they contain, and the evident good
judgment which controlled the writer while
making and recording his observations.
The second article which appears in the
magazine for October is entitled "Agricul-
tural Chilli" 1t contains an account of IA
visit to the agricultural provinces of that
country, describes the Chilians' methods of
farming, irrigation, wine culture, etc, and
states some interesting facts regarding i'm
migration, labor and wages The descrp-
ton of some of the growing cities and
towns and Mr. Child's account of railway
travelling in that region, will be read with
some surprise by many persons who are ac
customed to regard the South American
states as countries but little better than
half civilized The article is very fully il
lustrated

time. Marlboro was then considered a good
average farming town in fact, there were

more stock, butter, cheese, pork, beef, DO
tntoes, and the general products of the soil
than did Marlboro Many farmers kept a
large dairy they also made large quanti-
Ties oil sugar. The Adams, Mathers Hough-
tons, Hlgbys, Whitneys, Winchesters
Smiths, Haladays, Browns, Ingrahams
Millers, Ames, and many others, all had
large and productive farms and were thrifty
farmers, and really saving money besides,
schoolhouses were kept in good repair, and
the general attendance was large in fact
Marlboro sent out great number of able
men that have made high mark in the
world, and done honor to the town and
schools in which they were raised. The
churches were kept in good repair and we're
well attended. 1t was one of the great
pleasures of the young people TO come to.

Comm nder-in-Chief Venzey'- Appeal
for the Membership nnd support of
All Veterans.

HEADQUARTERS
GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC,
RUTLAND, W., Aug. 20, 1890.
Comrades The Grand Army of the
Republic was never in better condition than
at the present time. It's strength and
power are commensurate with its members,
now nearly one half million comrades. But
its mission is not complete. We are com
rades not for personal benefit TO ourselves,
but to enable us individually the better to
do good to others who stood at our side in
the shock of battle There are far too
many such not enrolled with us, and there
fore not within the reach of the full benefits
of our order They lose the advantage and
inspiration of fraternal associations which
the post room, the only club house of the
average veteran, affords. The relief fund
of the post is not sure to reach them in their
distress. They do not 90 with us to visit
the sick, to feed the hungry, or to bury the
dead comrnde. Our badge, which Grant
and Sheridan priced and sherman wears
does not decorate their breasts as the iusig
MIA of honor for their valiant service.
No veteran joins the Grand Army of the
Republic and enters into its work in the
spirit of true comrndeship, without being
lifted to loftier manhood and to the plane
of better citizenship. We therefore fail in
duty if we fail TO do our utmost to bring
all who offered their lives for flag and coun-
try within our organization. They all now
know that such membership cannot infringe
the free exercise of political inclination or
religious faith.
The Commander in-Chief therefore ap-
peals to posts and comrades to bring upon
our rolls all worthy veterans of the Union
army and navy, who are not there already
and to let none be dropped therefrom for
inability to pay the small dues incumbent
upon membership.
He also solicits from department com
manders and all comrades frank suggestions
upon matters within administrative iuris-
diction pertaining to the welfare of the or
der, BY vigorous cooperation along our
lines they are sure to he greatly advanced,
and our countrymen will ever rise up to
bless us for true devotion TO Fraternity,
Charity and Loyalty" even as they hold us
in honor for brave deeds on the battle fields
of the republic. Yours in f. G. L..

When summer kindles purple fires
That run along the foXglove spires.
And set the meadows all aglow
With blazing torches in a row,
Those July days beneath her feet
June grass that once was fair and sweet
Grows crisp and sere, then quick she tlres
The humming of her belted bees,
And sets within her meadows glad
A host of fellows emerald clad
These wee musicians Of the field,
When nestling birds no song burst yield,
Take up the strain, and from heir bows
In tiny tide the music flows,
A mimic music, shrill and thin,
Breathed out from elfn violin
Then katy comes with her I'D ways
And argues through the August days,
And last in damask ebon drest

That sunny fields and skies may rhyme,
For well he knows, the old-time friend.
That summers reign is at an end.
And numbers with his tick. tick, tock,
Each day of grace. The little clock
Beats out the long September hours,
Beats out the death of all the lowers.

Until il too at last runs down.

lFrom the Boston Record
What Congress ought to strike at is the
corrupt, purchasing sugar trust, whose
pimps fill the courts, debauoh the custom
houses, buy government officials, and even
dare to threaten the administration unless
it is allowed to profit by deliberate viola
tions of the law. Smash the sugar trust.
As a moral lesson against dehauchery and
corruption by officials, the stamping out of
that conspiracy would be worth much to
the country.
