Every spring in country, all the
broad stream sheets which are creeping
down the slopes to the margins of the
rivers, are conveying out a large store of
the solid matter from under the earth,
This material goes forth in the state of
complete solution TO the sea, and remains
suspended until it is appropriated by the
plants, and through them by the ami
mails, and laid down as sediment on the
ocean floor The effect of this constant
leeching out of the rocks which compose
the under earth is that the surface of the
land is in all cases gradually sinking
down by the under wear at the same time
that they are wearing down by over wear
brought about throa IA the action of the
surface waters.

The Acme Of XalOr.

The presentation of an American flag
to the grammar schools of Bangor re-
minds me of similar occurrence which
took place in a Maine village in the sum-
mer of 49, A company of volunteers,
being about to depart for the State CAPT
tai, were drawn up on the green to receive
a flag that had been made by the patriotic
members of the local sewing circle. The
village pastor made a sensible presenta-
ton speech, and the banner was received
by the Captain of the company, who
handed it to the color bearer, witty
Irishman. Then, facing the worthy pas
tor and his fair flock, the embarrassed
Captain proceeded to acknowledge the
gift as follows:
Reverend sir and ladies' This beauti-
full flag which see before me-
It's behind ye2, Captain, interrupted
the coior-bearer
Which l see behind me, amended the
blushing officer, Stands for something
more than the emblem of a powerful ma
ton. 1t is beauty's tribute to valor, and
as such it is doubly dear to the gallant
hearts around me. In thanking you for
your gift, ladies', we pledge ourselves
faithfully to defend it. At the close of
the campaign those of us who are spared
will bring this flag back TO you, unless it
is blown to atoms by shot from the
enemy, in which event we'll-we'll-'
Well bring thin back the pole!'
shouted the enthusiastic Irishman, to the
delight of the crowd and the relief of the
superior officer. Journal.

A Curious Romance Unearthed.

A strange bit OF family history W es
whispered to me the other day. Years
ago pretty Miss Adams. of Boston, an 4
cousin of John Quincy Adams, fell in
love with a fascinating young fellow
named De Camp. Direct descent from
the great Earl of Douglas did not recon
cile Miss Adams parents to the idea OF
their daughter marrying him. But love
is stronger than bars and bolts, and they
found a way to meet
A marriage followed, which, strange 10
say, proved a happy one, but Mrs. De
Camp was entirely cast of by her family.
Mr.. and Mrs. De Camp lived in Balti
more. which was farther from Boston
then than from Europe now. Four chill
dren were born, two sons and two daugh-
ters When the eldest was only eleven
years old both parents died and the
orphans were taken by the relatives of
Mr. De Camp. and their mothers history
was forgotten. if ever known. These
children grew up and married, and one
daughter, Mrs. John Hancock is living
in Washington to-day. All she has ever
known OF her mother was that she be-
longed to the old Adams family. Whether
she had aunts or uncles she had never
heard.
Seven charming daughters have grown
up in Mrs. Hancock's home and when
they are all together no gayer household
can be found The eldest daughter is
the wife of Governor Merriam, of Min
nesota: another the wife of Lieutenant
Hare, Seventh Cavalry, I. S. A.; and a
third married Captain Eugene Gritfen, of
! the En.ineer Corps. Recently Captain
Griffen resigned from the army to accept
a position in the Thomson Houston
Electric Light and Railroad Company,
and went TO live in Boston.
Paying a visit to one of the old fami-
! lies of the Hub. Mrs. Grtfen casually
mentioned that her grandmother was an
! Adams, of Boston, and cousin of John
! Quincy Adams. In a few days, Miss
| Adams, an old lady of ninety four years,
sent for Mrs. Gritfen, and it was soon
! discovered that Mrs. Grifens grand
mother was the old lady's sister, of whom
she had never heard since the days of the
runaway marriage. Mrs. Hancock at
once went to see her aunt and learn
about her mothers early life. AS the
old lady remembered the lonely years
which she had spent without knowing
and enjoying the society and love of
those who are the nearest and would have
! been the dearest. she could not refrain
from weeping. Each daughter of Mrs.
Hancock has been to see the old lady, and
the few years that may yet be spared he1
she hopes to pass with some one of the
family.
Miss Adams, though so old. has re-
gained her second sight, and can read
without glasses. She is active mentally
and as interested in all the topics of the
times as fifty years ago. Mrs. Baker, OF
Covington, KY, another aunt of Mrs
Hancock, is still living at ninety years
Mrs. Baker has 10 children, and hel
niece, Mrs, Hancock, will inherit hel
ample property. The youngest and only
unmarried daughter of Mrs. Hancock
bears the historic name of Abigail
Adams. The author, Thomas BailN
Aldrich, has also proved to be a cousin
of Mrs. Hancock Truth is stranger

This settled the mother for a time, but
when the boy sought to raise window
she leaned forward and said:

She let him alone for another interval,
but as he began to worry bird in a cage,

began to read and had nothing further to

asleep on vacant seat. He had one

THE EDITORS HARD LUCK.
Disaster overtakes Him at the beginning
of "a Hard Winter.


We were the victim Yesterday of one of
the most distressing accidents ever known
IN Miffiin Centre. Yesterday morning
our wife took occasion TO do the family
washing, having been kept from it earlier
IN the week by being kept very busy put
ting up our winter supply of apple but
ter. Among other articles of wearing
apparel which she included in the wash
was our white vest, rightly thinking that
the whte-vest days were about over, and
intending to do il up ald lay 1t away
against the return of the next picnic sea-
son. Now, unbeknown TO her. in the
lower right hand pocket of the vest there
was a large roll of bills, twelve ones and
a two-Sl4 in all. She did not discover
the roll, and, after having washed the gar
ment thoroughly, she hung it on the line
in the back yard to dry
All might yet have been we'll had it not
been for Mr. Ferdenbaughs large brindle
COW, which is we'll known to most of our
citizens. While our wife was in the par
Tor visiting moment with Mrs. Parmley,
who called to see how to make her grape
preserves iell, this beast-she deserves
no better name-broke through our blck
gate and deliberately ate up our vest
money and all When our wife reached
the scene of trouble the beast was Just
swallowing the last bill, with evident
relish. Our wife seized mop and rushed
OF the marauding intruder, but she only
tossed her head kicked sideways with
both hind feet, and, leapiug lightly over
. the fence, trotted off, switching her tail
d6Tantly. Neither the vest nor the mon
ely, we are sorry to say, seemed to have
any bad effect on her scoundrelly good
health.
Our wife Immediately informed us of
the accident, and we instantly called on
Mr.. Ferdenbaugh and demanded that the
animal be slaughtered, doubling not that
we should find our money in the first of
that suite of stomachs with which we
learn from physiology the COW is pro-
vided. This Mr.. Ferdenbaugh refused
to assent to. He pleaded that he was a
poor man, and, as he had recently bought
the COW, that all of his ready money was
in her. We naturally replied that all of
our ready money was in her, too, but it
failed to move him.
1t was sad affair, take it all around,
but one about which nothing can be done.
Our wife's excuse for not looking in the
pockets before she began her laundry
operations is that she had gone through
our pockets for money for twenty years
and never found any, and had, therefore
become discouraged. And, if the reader
will believe it, that beast of a COW had the
etfrontery about the middle of the after
noon to lie down under tree directly
opposite our house and contentedly chew
her cud-rema sticating our $l4, we doubt
not.-MiHjH Centre BIdde.
