GLIM PSES OF THE H EAR T OF AU- TUMX.

BY DAISY LEE.I have been rambling, wandering

Out in the forest to-day;I have caught the breath of tbe zephyr

As it sported blithe and g ay ;Tpssing the bright leaves to and fro,

Playing coquette with the flowers I trow , Lifting the hair from my weary brow.

Now here, then far away.

I have searched over hill and valley •For the few remaining flowers,

Which linger still while the fair, frail birds,

That grew in our garden bowers,Have drooped aud faded, a h ! long ago;

Gone from our sight like mists of snow; Perished with beauty all aglow,

Like the loved and lost of ours.

' I have gazed with eyes admiring—On the tops of the tall old trees,

All wreathed in a brilliant coronal Of red and yellow leaves.

O, never did fairy-land boast a sight More full of beauty, more fair and bright

Bathed in a purer, holier light,Then that crown of Autumn leaves.

And I come with a few pale blossoms, From the scenes I thought sublime,

While my heart is full of musicI have caught from the lovely clim e;

And i ’m thanking thee, Father, thanking thee,

For the untold beauties of flower andtree,

For the lesson of life they are teaching me In the beautiful Autumn time.

(: i U p O A .N Y.

On a pleasant afternoon in September, two persons—a man and a boy—were trudg ing slowly along the main road running th r and connecting the town of Chester^ with the adjacent village. They belonged to a class not seldom seen in our country towps, name­ly—venders of cheap plaster images, which though coarse and rude, are not altogether

‘unserviceable in developing a. !?ve artf among the people.

What was most remarkable, however, in these two, wa§ their (ii^si^iiarity in apnea1*- ance. Tbe man. who h.-. i alro*'rl middle life, was darkly couqfiexionea, w ith black hair and eyes and a thick beard; He was not—to judge from his appearance— of particularly amiable disposition, his face being with a habitual scowl. For the rest, he was tall* .strong, and walked with a swing­ing gait. Nd|j$ne could doubt for a moment his Italian ^cejait.

His companiejtr, on^the contrary, seemed to differ from: him fiat . every respect. He was a boy of fifteen, of light and graceful make and a handsome* intelligent face. His h a ir was of a beautiful brqWn, and slightly curling. Though sunburnt—as he could not fail to be from constant exposure—it could be seen that he was originally very light complexioned. Iu all respects he reminded one far more of the Saxon' than the Italian.

Both were Coarsely dressed, but, in spite of his attire, the boy’s appearance was as decidedly prepossessing as his companion’s w as the reverse. Each bore upon bis head, arrayed upon a board, a variety of plaster images.

* * Cospelto ! ” muttered the man in a gram bling way, tbe afternoon is half g o u e , and yet yo^t have sold nothing. You must stir yourself, or you shall have no supper.

“ I have bad no dinner, ” said the boy, mildly.

“ Well, and you have deserved none.— You have not made a sale to-day.”

“ I tried to make them buy, but they saidthey wanted-nothing.”

“ If you had tried you could have solds o m e th in g , I ’ll b e b o u n d . B u t I w il l g iv e

y o u a n o th e r tr ia l. ; Y o u s e e th a t la r g e h o u se 'up the avenue?”

“ Y e s , A n t o n io .”

“ I w a n t y o u to g o th e r e , a n d m in d , b o y ,you are to sell something, or—you knoww h a t ! ”

These last words, interpreted by the sig- nifficant look which accompanied them, threatened punishment by the stick, and so the boy understood it.

With no pleasant anticipation he entered the gateway and walked slowly up to the house.

-ke will.tako the liberty of proceeding him, and introducing some of the occupants.

The house was a large, square country mansion, surrounded by a large landed es­tate. I t was furnished in the old fashioned style, yet in such a manner as to indicate that wealth aud station had long been pos­sessed by those who inhabited it.

.In the ample Sitting room w^re s ated a lady aud g< utlemau—Mr. aud All s. PaulD .u jv e r s .

“ Wh* re is your brother C&alles’to-day ?” a?-ked the gentleman. T,

“ He rode out on horseback about an hourtfsince,

“ W ash e alone ?”“ Yes ; he prefers solitude. ”“ I am afrade he is not very happy. ”“ No, and I fear he will never recover his

cheerfulness in any considerable degree. Ever since he lost his only child by that fear ful shipwreck, he has been as you see.

“ I t is certain that the child died, I sup­pose?” - > *

“ There can be no doubt of it, unhappily. The boy had accompanied his mother to the West Indies, whither she had gone in search of health. Charles remained behind, being detained by necessary business. M eanwhile his wife’s health was materially benefitted by the residence in Cuba, and according to her husband’s direction, she embarked for home, together with her child, then three or fo u r years o f age. But the vessel was a doomed one. I t was wrecked off the coast, and mother and son, undoubtedly perished. This was the summer before we were mar­ried. Since that time Charles has been a melancholy man, and apparently felt little interest in life.”

“ It is a sad story. He must have been devoted to his wjfAand child.”

“ He was, and the double loss was a se­vere blow. If only the child could bave been spared, I thihk it would have saved him from such despondence.”

At that moment the door bell rung.Iu a short time the servant who had ans

wered the summons presented herself at the door of the apartment in which Mr. and Mrs. Danvers were seated, and said :

“ Please, ma’am, there’s a boy'at the door with plaster parish figgers. .

“ You know, Bridget, we never buy such things.” * ,

“ I know it ma’am, and I told him so; but he asked me so hal’d to tell you, and saiu -1 . ' • ;d'sell s o r n e t . ' is mas­ter would L^ai him, that I thought, l.d do it ji$t,f-..r once.” ;

“ a* ?„er his fiaaiter jD'u o v ' ’r p r y e r 3 ’ J id ’y .— Y^nmay ten m m to come into the entry, and I will perhaps buy something, if only to screen him from punishment. ”

By Bridget’s directions the boy entered the hall and laj.a his collection of wares* on the floor.

“ What a pretty hoy ! ” thought Mrs. Danv e r s . “ H e 'd o e s n ’t lo o k l ik e a n I ta l ia n .

W hat is your, name, boy ?”“ Antonio calls me John ,’* replied the

boy.“ And who is Antonio ?”“ The mau that goes around with m e.” !“ And is he kind to you.”‘ ‘ N o ; he won’t give me any dinner when

I don’t sell as much as he expects, and some times, he beats ,

“ That is shameful. I believe I must buy ' something, if only for your sake. What have you got ? ”

“ Here is an image of two boys fighting.” “ I wont take that. It would be setting a

bad example to any boys who might see it. What is this?”

That is the image of Napoleon Bona­parte. ”

“ Do you know who Napoleon was ?”“ He was a king, Wasn’t he ?”“ He was the Emperor of France. How

much do you ask iior i t? ”“ You may have it for two shillings ” “ Here is a half dollar. You may. keep

that for yourself. ,Did yon say you' had had no dinner’?” ' >

“ No, m a’am .”“ Then I will give yon some. Here, Bridg

e t . ”

“ I f you will Jet me take it in my hand,tfna’am. If I stay away long the master will

w h ip m e .”

“ I t shall be as you say. Bridget, you may bring a couple of slices of bread and butter and a pice of pie for this boy. ”

“ You are very kind,” said the little im­age vender, gratefully.

“ And I am very much interested in you,’ the lady might have said. She could not keep her eyes off bis face. There was some thing in the expression that attracted and yet puzzled her. She feji that she had seen be­fore, but could not fix the vague associati­on which led her to the belief.

“ Can you read ?” she inquired.“ Allas, no, madafifl* I have never learn ­

ed,” said the boy regretfully. 1

‘ ‘ Then you wouldj |ikq so ?”“ Would I not ?., W h e n j | >passed by a,

anything better than to sell images.After a little conversation, the effect of

which was to increase the interest of Mrs. Danvers in the young image merchant, the latter departed, but not without a promise to call again whenever he should be in the neighborhood. The image of Napoleon was handed to Bridget, who?bore it off in tri­umph, and the Corsican Bm peror in plaster still adonis the mantal of the kitchen, over which the lady exercise!^sway.

Not five minutes after the young image vender had left the house, a horseman rode up in the opposite direction—the avenue wound round the house, having two outlets —and throwing himself carelessly from the steed, entered the house.

He had scarcely entered, when his atten­tion was drawn to a small parcel lying onthe floor. L ifting it with some curiosity, he opened the paper which enclosed it.

He started in uncontrolable emotion on seeing the contents, and with the greatest ag itation visible on his face, rushed into the presence of his sister and brother-in-law, who were seated in the room already dis­cribed.

“ Good heavens, Charles, what is the mat­ter ?” exclaimed Mrs. Danvers in alarm.

“ Where did this picture come from ?” asked her brother, exhibiting what he had found.

I t was the picture of a lady young andbeautiful.

“ Why, this is your wife !” exclaimed Mrs Danvers, in astonishment.

“ Y e s , yes!—but where did it come from?“ I know nothing of it. I ought rather to

ask you that question. ”“ But you must know !” returned . h #

brother, in eager impatience. ‘ ‘ Did I not find it in the entry, just now ?” f

“ In the entry ?” ^“ Yes! Who has been here ?”“ G ulya boy with plaster images. He

left five minutes since.”‘ ‘ A boy ! If it should be my b p y ! ex.-

elAIrfi ed her w it^star^ ing ' earnest­ness 1

‘ ‘ Tell me instantly in what direction he went.”

Alore amazed than she could express at the sudden suspicion Which shA fhodght it not unlikely might be verified to a .certain­ty, Mrs. Danvers gave directions to her brother, who instantly vaulted upon his h o r s e a n d spurred down the avenue.

Meanwhile John had r e jo in e d his elder companion, who, in consideration of his sale, forbqre to reprimand, tlfte only immun­ity he expected the two had already started on.

I t was not until some few minutes had elapsed that John discqvered his loss. Q |\;

I have lostdoing so, he cried in dismafy, something 1 I .must go p ac k ! ”

‘ ‘ Have you dropped any of the images ?? ’ demanded Antonio, knitting his brows.

“ No.”“ What is it then?”“ My picture.”“ Pooh, that is no consequence,” said the

e ld e r , r e l ie v e d to find that it was only some thing belonging to the boy. “ It is not worth going after.”

“ But it is,” said John with sparkling eyes “ I will not leave it behind.”

“ You will not ?” repeated Antonio, men­acingly. We will see if you will not. Take up those images instantly and follow me !”

Instead of obeying, the boy started to run back. With an oath, Antonio pursued him. But both were brought to a stand-still by thea p p e a r a n c e o f h o r s e m e n , p a le a n d h a g g a r d ,

who reined up his steed suddenly ^when he s a w the boy and leaped to the ground,

“ T e l l m e , ” h e d e m a n d e d h o a r s e ly , “ is

this yours?” “ Yes, Yes I How much I thank you. I

“ Whose picture is it? Tell me instantly!’ Gazing with surprise at th e agitated face

of the questioner, John answered simply— “ I t is my mother. ”

“ Then you are my child.”Straightway the astonished boy was fold­

ed in ‘a close embrace. ' 'Art explanation then followed, from which

Man was made in dry weather.He was made of dust.Quite a number has never recovered from

their creation; they are still dry.I t is man’s nature to be discontented,Adam had a monopoly, b u t he could not

be happy without some one to crow over, ” .For a while he knocked around over tho

Garden of Eden, and then went to ’thAhouse but he had to cook his own supper; there was no stove-wood chopped, and things were in a bad shape generally.

The next morning it was the same way.EJe had to make his own lied and sweep out. His socks w e r e dirty and his arm would run through a hole in his sleeve. So-he wasdis-satikfied.

The next night the Creator punished him b y m a k in g o n e of his r ib s into a woman—a great misfortune to the race.

I t has been 6,000 years since that rib was lost, and yet man continues feeling for it.

This is a very feeling subject.Pursuit in the cause is said to be sweeter

than possession.After Eve got acquainted with her mate

she vowed that all the men in the wood were not worth Adam.

Goliah was a man.He was a bigger man than old Grant, but

he could not stand so many slings.A fop is a male who is ashamed of his sex,

and attempts to conceal the fact that, he is a m a n .

Concealment in such cases is attended with but little trouble. I t is only necessary to part his hair in the middle.

The family man resembles* an oyster on the half shell,

The shell is known at home., the soft side abroad.

Some'men carry this resemblance in their faces, A great many men have countenauc es like oysters.

Am ong business men, the Presi­dential year is called an “ off year,” and they do not expect as large a trade as in other years. B u t th is year has been an exception to the rule and as a general thing, business o f all kinds have been unusually active, and all branches of industry are in a flourshing condition. This is un­doubtedly due to the reaction that al­ways follows a panic.

W e are now in our normal condi­tion, and our tradesmen have reason to look forward to a season o f unex­ampled prosperity, unless some un­foreseen calam ity should overtake us. Our country'is undergoing a great change; tliough the youngest, we have become one o f the greatest nations o f the earth— already, we are the gran­ary o f the world, and instead o f con­sumers, we have became producers; and if our interests are properly fos­tered and protected, w e shall soon

These “ pisen clean ” woman always hate to have company “ G uests are dirty, you know.” The parlor is kept dark and unused from year to year. The carpets would fade and dust would accrue. W e once knew a wo­man who would not open her parlor for the marriage of her daughter. “ The street’s are too dusty,” she said. She is dust now. T hey opened the parlor for her funeral, and one alm ost wonders that she did not turn over in the coffin. The over neat woman cleans house tw ice a year. Twice a year the’uncomfortable husband and children are doubly uncomfortable. The weakness o f the flesh alone de­ters her from cleaning house every m oon. The over neat woman de­lights to make people uncomfortable. She is thin, dyspeptic, has nerves, is troubled with dirt on the brain. D irt on the brain is very wearing to the constitution, and the over neat wo­man nearly always dies young. I f she did not nearly all her household would, H er husband always has an­other chance. This is a dispensa­tion o f Providence. W e write with some feeling on this subject although, thank God, we have only seen the th e over-neat woman afar off. B ut w e have seen the lives o f good men embittered, we have seen boys driven to ruin, and girls w ith such a hatred for cleanliness that they have become very slatterns by over-neat wives and Ah, mothers, do not mind a cluttered ffoor, a little gravel or, sand on the carpet, a finger mark on the wall pa­per or mirror. The day may come w hen a little dirt spread by baby feet or laid on by b u sy baby fingers would be the gladdest sight in the world . - ex

fatfier wit h a knife, andthen hanged him­self. The cause was insanity. The murder was committed iu the town of Sheffield, Vt., one mile from Wheelock Hollow. The mur deror was 26 years of age. He had, about six years ago, a spinal difficulty, which caus­ed the loss of his reason. He was confined in an asylum two years, and when he return ed home he was considered safe, but was of ugly temper, as, in fact, he always had been His mother was 63 ye^rs old Mid /Ms step­father 74 years.

A school teacher who lives at the house left there for her school at 9 o’clock this morning. A neighbor, Mr. Ingalls, went to the house at 10 o’clock, and on^opening the kitchen door he found the ghastly bodies of tiie maniac’s victims. The body of Mrs. Williams lay with her feet near the door that he opened, that of Mrs. Parks lay by the door leading to the sink room, near the sink, where she had apparently been wash­ing aishes. Blake clubbed them all to death with a shot-gun, breaking the stock off on Mrs. Williams’ head, the lock of the gun be­ing found entangled in her hair. The stock lay by her side. The walls, curtains, and mirror were bespattered with blood, and there is a hole in the plastering of the ceil­ing, made by an up stroke of the weapon. Dried apples from hanging racks were scat­tered about the room. A part of Mrs. Will­iams’ hair was pulled out, and it is supposed she started to escape and that the maniac caught her by the hair and dragged her back Though an extraordinarily strong woman she was no match for an armed maniac. The old folks, being feeble, could make lit­tle resistance. The back of Mrs. Williams’ head was pounded in, her teeth knocked out and her skull broken in over the right eye, and her lips cut open. Mr. Parks’ head was crushed in the same as the others. The body of Blake was found in the bam sus­pended by t he neck with a rein taken from some harness.

Mr. and Mrs. Williams had intended Co go to Providence to-day to visit a brother of Mrs. Williams, but postponed it to Thursday Mr. Williams started this morning for Lyn- donville, about 8 o’clock, to see about the tickets. A messenger was sent at once, and found him at Lyndon Corner, one mile south of Lyndonville. A week ago to-day a party of some 50 persons visited Mr. and Mrs. Williams to celebrate the fifteenth anniver- si.-y of tneir wedding. Mr. jr. marriea Mrs. Blake 13 years ago, and they were much respected. Blake was short and thick set, and weighed about 150 pounds. There has been np sucjx cxytej^n^htrp since four; years ago, when Wilder killed his father and mother and then killed himself two miles south of here. Williams had no children.— Ex.

Belknap and Mrs. Greene eloped together at Melrose, Wis. They drove a-gpod horse rapidly, but had not gone moiW than ten miles before they heard a clatter of hoofs behind. Greene had hastily mounted and started in pursuit. The race was long and exciting; but the husband at length rode alongside the pair, cocked a pistol, and com­manded a halt. Bolknap was abject with error. ‘ Youmay have your wife, Mr. Greene,” he said. “ I don’t want her,” Greene replied; ‘‘ you don’t think I ’ve chas ed you like mad to get her back ? Oh, no. But I’ll take my dollar and a half that she’s got in her pocket.” The money was given /o, and the elopement proceeded quietly.

New Discovery.

The mortality statistics of this country show that a great proportion o f deaths arise from Heart disease. But aside from the fatality which attends it, the inconven­ience and suffering which even the first stages bring make it necessary to take prompt measures for relief Undoubtedly the greatest remedy of modern times for curing diseases o f the Heart is “ Sedatine- de-India,” which is accomplishing such wonderful results and attracting so much attention. This great remedy possesses in­gredients specially designed for a ll the nu­merous troubles of the Heart. . The com­bination is the result o f long and careful experiment, and it can bfygafely asserted that when taken in time it will cure in ev* ery case. Do you ever have Nightmare, pressed feeling in side and breast, Irreg­ular Action, Throbbing, Jumping, Flutter- ng, Momentary Stopping, Slow Circulation of the Blood ? These are all symtoms of Heart Disease. Those who are suffering and have never triedit should do so a t once; those w ho have ever tried it do not need to be urged to do so again.

There are for many reasons, few diseases more to be dreaded than Erysipelas, and it has, not inaptly been termed “ St. Antho­ny’s Fire.” There is no disease which so completely deforms and disfigures the vis­age of the patient; and it may farely be com pared to a red mask thrown by a mocking demon over the human face, It is almost as dangerous as it is repulsive. Arising from a variety of causes, running its course with pain—it often ends suddenly in death. The substance of the enlightened modern treat­ment is all contained in Dr. Kennedy’s “Fa­vorite Remedy.” Use this, and you have taken the essential total of all the best phy­sicians in the land could prescribe for Ery­sipelas. A case in point. Mr. S. B. Car­penter, of Grandville, N. Y ; writes that he had fbr some time been afflicted with this disease in both legs, and has regained his health by the sole use of “ Favorite Reme­dy. ” Other cases might be cited, did space permit. “ Favorite Remedy ” is also sure in its action in all other diseases of blood Ask your drnggist for it, or address the Pro­prietor, Dr. David Kennedy, Rondout, N.Y.

H o p s . —The prices of hops last week ranged from

13 to 15 cents. This week, 18 cents have been offered for a good article. The Utica Herald of Monday says of the m arket:

A good many growers have gone to New York this year, believing that they could dis pose of their growth to better advantage and realize more for it by doing away with mid­dle men. The result has been that city firms have had more hops offered than they knew how to dispose of, and this surplus of offerings has weakened the trade aud had a strong influence in depressing the market. Of course when the grower hacPgot to New York he had reached headquarters, and there was no further market to resort to. Thus he obliged to soil his goods for what he could get, which in many cases was less than he could have obtained at home.

As the season advances it becomes more and more apparent that strictly choice hops, bright in color, and right in every way, are very scarce. Such hops will command a price above anything we quote, but they are so seldom found that it is difficult to say what the market for them would be. On other grach* hor>9 and trust that the bot- toiU'Lao m reauLed, although we can give no assurance that such is the case. Sqles to brewers range from 18 to 24c., but 22c is a full average for brewers prices, with frequ­ent .v'-’ons 18 to 80c

Discussion of the top ic : “ Is a librarying one of the heirs of Thomas Bryant, and representing himself everywhere as being the owner, and having a perfect title to the fine farm on the east side of Palmer Hill, known as “ The Thomas Bryant farm ,” he has had no difficulty in purchasing wherever and whatever he wished, and for the pastthree months or more he has availed him­self of his opportunities, and as the list of his victims become known, it is seen he has known neither friend or foe, but has robbed each alike. He was able to conceal his real motive, and the extent of these transactions until a week since, wLen it was whispered that he had deeded the farm in question, worth at least $20,000, to William Whitney, $ 1 ,0 0 0 , and that he was about to leave the country. The first to act in the matter was Thomas Edwards, of this town, who had procured an order of arrest from Judge May nard, and accompanied by constable Ham­mond, arrested Bryant as he was to leave on the afternoon train at Arkville.—Arriving at his home he managed to evade the officers, through the aid of the notorious Jim Myers, of Middletown, but after a chase |to Clark’s Factory was re-captured, and on Friday morning was brought to Andes handcuffed to the officer. He was taken before Justice Dickson, and in a very short time was sur­rounded by numerous creditors, or represen tatives of creditors. Among these were the following, which he paid in fu ll:

Thomas Edwards, dairy butter, upward of $250; Richard Morse, endorsement on note $300. Note returned, unused; Noah B. Hamilton, dairy, $260 ; David Ballantine, cash—$300; John B. Roberts, $75; J. K. Hood, $50: W. D. Dunn, $20.

As soon as the claims had been paid he was discharged, and immediately left town, accompanied by Myers, driving in the direc­tion of Shavertown, and it was supposed for the nearest point on the Midland railroad.

Since he has left the extent of his swin­dles has constantly developed. The list so far as we have heard, is as follows, with th e approximate amount in each case :

Lemuel Sines, Lumberville, cash advanc­ed on butter, and endorsement on notes, $2,700; W, W. Clark, endorsement, $600; James Kittle, Margaretville, $400; M. N. Mitchel, Andes, endorsement, $300 ; J. V. Miller, Andes, wagons, $118; Stephen Hull and sister, butter, $400; Widow Reside,

Mr. Egbert Palmer, a former resident of this place, was instantly killed gon Wednes­day last, having fallen , between the cars while in the act of jumping on. He was em ployeclat Belmont Station, on the Reading Railroad, as a watchman.. His funeral will take place on to-morrow afternoon. Inter­ment at West Laurel Hill cemetery. The deceased was a member of Falls of Schuyl­kill Lodge, No. 467, L 0 , O. F ., and un­married.

F e e d s Y o u n g A g a i n .— “ My mother was afflicted a long time with Neuralgia and a dull, heavy, inactive condition of the whole system ; headache, nervous prostration, and was almost helpless. No physicians or med icines did her any good. Three months ago she began to use Hop Bitters, with such good effect she seems and feels young again, although over 70 years old. We think there is no other medicine fit to use in the family.” —A lady, in Providence, R. I.

D o n ’t Be S i l l y . —Don’t let a foolish prejudice against popular medicines stand between you and the health of your wife, child or baby, I t is always right to adver­tise a blessing. Dr. Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy is a blessing* I t has saved thou­sands, and it will help you. If you are sick and miserable, we advise you to spend One Dollar for this King of Medicines, and then write to the Doctor at Rondout, N. Y., as to you feel. For troubles of the kidneys, bow­els, liver and blood.

—Mr John S Collett, of Cobleskill, who has been commissioned by Seth Green to look after the fishing interests in this dis­trict, took a trip to Otsego and Delaware counties, accompanied by Sheriff D H Mead of Oneonta, and destroyed several eel racks and secured two or three fishing nets found in the Susquehanna river and the Delaware streams. Violations of the game law will be severely punished

—J, N. Bick, of Toledo, Ohio, says :— My father, before wearing the “ Only Lung Pad, ” could not sleep nights on account of his violent coughing, since wearing it he has sept soundly every night.—See Adv.
