About year since some enterprising
citizens from the town of Bennington
took possession of our beautiful lake,
not without the consent of the owners
and the best wishes of the inhabitants,
and after erecting tents with other APP
purtenances to make it a comfortable
and delightful summer resort chris
tened it Lake Ben-Cush-Mat-Hall, in
honor of the four families who first con-
ceived the happy idea land put it in
execution) of opening and developing
the natural beauties of this locality,
which are second to none in the State.
IT'S true the magnificent scenery is not
like any other in this region, or in any
other like this, which relieves it from
monotony, and at once awakens new
conceptions of the grand and gives to
the tired or languid spirit that which in
nature is most satisfying. The improve
ments were first located on the beautiful
island, which is situated in the centre of
the lake, but it proving too difficult of
access and egress, as it was necessary to
90 and come to the main land in boats,
the camp has this year been established
on bluff at the outlet where it is in
view of the passing railroad trains, and
will be made permanent. 1t is but five
minutes walk from the depot, and the
cars usually stop opposite the camp
when it can be made in two minutes.
There are now twelve tents supplied
with wire spring beds and mattresses,
eight of which have floors, and there is
also cook house and kitchen, which has
been built to last for years. Already
there are inquiries for opportunities to
locate here from other towns, and 1t is
thought perhaps arrangements may be
made to accommodate larger number.
To the west short distance the hill
rises about three hundred feet where
there is level road on the side of the
mountain, with drive of a mile and
a-half. And still at higher attitude of
about five hundred feet more, a still
longer level drive, most of the way in
sight of the railroad cars flying through
the picturesque valley. The railroad
managers deserve the hearty thanks of
this community, for their liberal &C
ccmmodations in furthering an object
which will add so much to the prospect
ty of our town, as well as give pleasure
to those requiring rest during the warm
season.

Tho Philosophical Fad.

Possibly 1t Is the lingering influence
Of the Puritan maxim that whatever Is
pieasurable is wrong, and that rest is
Incidence, that impels the American to
make his vacation o change of occupa-
aon, and 10 Geek to "improve" every
moment Of his time. Certainly In no
ether way can we account for the deter
unination with which the man or woman
who ought to battle his or her tired
mind In rest irritates 1t with lectures,
and plunges into summer schools as If
they were summer pools. The tired
echool teacher, who ought to bend all
bis energies to doing nothing, will sit
eor hours on bench In grove to listen
to college professor, who ought 10 be
idle, too, lecture on Plato's self efface-
ment or Socrates's synthesis.
We have not the slightest desire to
tiisparage the excellence Of such sum-
mer schools; we only point to their sue
cess ae indicating development Of the
national temperament and the national
desire for improvement. Possibly at
tendance on them is only compromise
between this temperament and the
human craving for rest, and that the
man who sits apparently wrapt in ad-
mirat1on OF Professor Strawthrasher's an

mentary to that learned lecturer. Let

Not Much of an Affair.

The tall Lord Stradbrole served under
Wellington in Spain and afterward
fought at Quatre Bras, but was some
how disabled from being at Waterloo.
He was, moreover, almost the only Tory
landlord whose abilities l ever heard
Charles Austin praise. When he was
staying with my father the conversation
turned ON the extraordinary passage in
which Victor Hugo attributes Napo-
leon's fall to the divine jealousy Ill
genait Dieu), and in which, so far as he
assigns to human or rather to British
agency, any share in the giants over
throw, he would have us believe that
the credit was due to the British army
alone, and not to Napoleon's rival.

Lord Strad broke, "that If he had had
his old peninsular army at Waterloo it
would have been an affair of four hours.
These were his words" This is remark
