HEBRON MINISTER.
Becoming Peeved in Revolutionary Time, Gave Connecticut Her Repu- tation as Blue Law State.

new History of Connecticut, just written by George l.. Clark and re- viewed at length in a New York Sun day paper contains the following:
 Soon after the Revolution this state was made still more conspicu- ous by the publishing of a history by an Episcopal minister, Samuel Peters who was born in Hebron in 1735. be- came rector of the little church in his native town, where he lived until the Revolution His aggressive loyalist convictions provoked the resentment or the Sons of Liberty and a party of them threatentd him with tar and feathers an dcompelied hfm to prom ise to refrain from meddling with po- litical affairs
 Repeated offenses led him to a sec ond visit, and Peters, putting on his priestly robes, addressed the crowd qulbbllnS and equiyocating,' as the story comes down to us through biased minds. but the men pressed into the parsonage and found loaded guns and pistols. Then they seized Peters, tearing his clothes; putting him in cart they hauled him by his own oxen to the Green, where the ysei him on the public horse block apo forced him to sign declaration and confession that he repented of his past -rnisdeeds and promised that he would give no further cause for com plaint. He was then made to read the papers alou dto the crowd an6 give three cheers.
 Gov. Turnbull ordered. the civil au- thorities at Hebron to preserve peace and good order and put the laws ir execution. Peters knew he would be safer and happier elsewhere, and hs soon moved to Boston, and in Novem Der. 1774, sailed for England, sending back letters to friends in Hebron but spies behind stone walls over heard his messengers talk about the letters and securing the nissives ot the angry minister they offered the unfortunate letter carriers a whippins or, running the gauntlet; choosing the latter, they became the object o1 the spite Of the Sons and Daughter of Liberty of the neighborhood, ana were glad to get through with theil lives"
 However, by his letters and his his tory, Peters succeeded in handing fol some distance down the line of DOS terity an impression of old Connecti cut narrowness and bigotry.
 "As specimens of the Blue Code O Connecticut he says. it made i criminal in mother to kiss her in. fant on the Sabbath Day.

POETRY
WHEN YOUTH WAS HERE.

 Youth was here but yesterday and
 romped this sunny slope. It hlled the air with wholesome cheer
 and filled our hearts with hope:
 meadowIands -Sd brooks. And put the touch of mystery on wood
 land brakes and hooks. It peopled wonder smiling sky with
 boyish faces bright. And gave to each familiar thing a new
 and sweet delight; It made the world a perfect world to
 wander in and play. And SO it stays for happy Youth was
 here but yesterday. Youth was here but yesterday, To
 wonder little run It gave silvcry song to sing whilst
 flashing in the sun; It touched the fields where grasses
 wave and clover blooms so sweet. And made them pleasant to the tread
 of unshod boyish feet: It gave the skies the art to smile ths
 birds their song to sing. And each and all to harmonize with
 every smiling thing In turn to chord with singing hearts Of
 boys and girls at play All this it did when happy Youth was
 here but yesterday. Youth was here but yesterday. and.
 coming to depart It leit the boon of Memory to every
 aging heart It left the art of calling. back the
 summer paths and ways. famt.ar spots and faces too. and
 friends of other days rho meadow-iand the winding road, s the valley and the hill. And places in the happy past where fancfes finger still: But, best of all to hosts of men whom
 Time has touched with gray. IL left the thought that happy Youth was here but yesterday. John D. Wells, in Buffalo News.
