New England Justice.

Ebenezer Smell, the grandfather of
the poet William Cullen Bryant, is de-
scribed as good type of the New
England farmer, in whose nature Puri-
tanism, with it's stern rigors of conduct
and conscience, was overlaid with
many Of the amenities Of Yankee hu,
NOR. Bryant preserved several anec-
dotes of his grandfather, one Of which.
quoted by Mr.. w. A. Bradley in his
biography of the poet, may serve to In
dictate the way in which he exercised
bis hu'nor, and also to show the patri-
archal conception Of justice that was
held IN remote New England com.
munitY at the end of the eighteenth
century.
My grandfather, said Bryant, once
found that certain pieces Of lumber in
tended by him for the runners of sled
and called in that part Of the country
sled crooks had been taken without
leave by farmer who lived at no
great distance. These timbers were
valuable, being made from u tree the
grain Of which was curved so as to
correspond with the curve required in
the runners
