Brief communications on current topics are respectfully solicited from all parts of the county. A Big Load of Wood. The Rev. Dr. Wellington was the old Templeton minister from early in the eighteen hundreds, and Col. Leonard Stone was one of his parishioners. It was the custom to supplement the minister's moderate salary with present from the products of the farms, and especially with wood. Now Col. Leonard, one day in January, 1822, was drawing to the parsonage some of his nice hardwood. It was a good ox-load—two cords or so. As he was going across the common with his brother, Col. Ephraim, caught sight of him from the store, and was surprised at such a great load. "Hello!" says he, "why don't you take your minister a load of wood while you're about it?" "Now, look here," says Col. Leonard, "I've been sawing out lumber down the mill, and there's any quantity of slabs. I'll give the minister as big a load as you can take!" Col. Ephraim was a man for fun. He instigated the townspeople to take hold with him and accept his brother's challenge. First, they made the sled. Long trees were cut for the runners. These were made thirty-old feet long and set eight feet apart. The body of the sled projected two feet over the runner on each side. Thus the sled would hold twelve regular cords at one layer. There were two tongues, one in front of each body. Eating Onions. A couple of young girls living in a boarding house on Charles street played a mean trick on another young and attractive maiden in the same house. They all had some cake and wine together, and in the unsuspecting one's glass was poured a small portion of tincture of saffetida, which, as every one knows, snails like a conglomeration of onions, bad eggs, decayed vegetables and a host of other things too numerous to mention. The prank-playing damselfs knew that the unhappy maid's Charles Augustus called on Sunday, and they also knew that, while she could not detect the flavor of the assafetida in the fragrant wine, nevertheless it would produce to her aforesaid Charles Augustus the impression that she had been eating onions by the peck. Poor, pretty little unsuspecting thing! She was radiant when she flew to the door and admitted the manly form of the object of her heart's affections; and she did not observe, as they were locked in a close embrace, that, as his lips met hers, drawing a dimple in the back of her neck, a look of wild, unutterable horror spread over his lineaments a dusky pallor. He cut the embrace short, and they went and took their places on the cozy tete-a-tete in the corner. Then she noticed that there was a far-off troubled look in his eyes, and he shifted about uneasily, as if vaguely aware that something was the matter, but that he couldn't detect this odor, which resembled day-before-yesterday's fried onions, and which was lingering dreamily around on the soft, warm air. "Decrest," asked she, slyly; "what is the matter?" Nothing, sweetheart, nothing; that is, nothing," answered he, as his gaze flew swiftly from one object to another. But there must be," said she, leaning forward. "You are not yourself to night. You have something on your mind. Tell me, darling;" and she tried to gaze into his face, while he dodged her with a look in his eyes like that of a hunted wild beast. My love, you are not well," she said anxiously, as she wound her arm about his neck and drew his head about until their faces nearly touched. "Wh-hat is the matter?" and she tenderly sighed her soul into tears. Oh, great Godfrey!" he groaned, as the fatal simoom struck him. "You—that is, I—am not feeling very well." But, dearest, you seemed all right when you came in," she persisted lovingly, and then she sighed again, and he Chicago's Watch-Box. Chicago is ahead of all civic Union in one respect, and the employment of what are called boxes." They have been in very short time, yet they have strated their utility that pleaser how they ever got along them. They are made of either square or sextagonal in about three feet in diameter; feet high, and are provided with phone locked in a box through which runs a telegraph ad Each box is provided with a keeper securely locked. The screen are usually fastened to a telephone while the sextagonal or new place of a lamp-post at the street, the lamp being placed upon it Every member of the fire departments is furnished to the doors of the watch-box also with keys to open the trailing telephones. An able citizen who desires can pass to the doors of the watch-making application at the quarters. Each key is numbered, and a register of residences of the part they are furnished is kept.adjuncts are trim-built wired by two good horses stationed at convenient throughout the city.Each manned by a driver and two We will suppose a citizen along the street late at night encounters a gang of drunk who assault him. There is no within call to assist him; no arter pushing and jostling go on their way. The citizen next corner takes out his key door of the watch-box down the lever of the telescope recorded, the same alarm boxes. In less than ten and often in a minute, the his side with two policemen him. The citizen meanwhile remaining in the box, for which the lock-bolt back the same curely fastens it in the box not take it out until it is no special key, which is only police and firemen. If tha badly injured the wagon takes home or the hospital, while in search of the ruffians who lested him. This is only numberless ways in which be made useful. It is also police to have drunken or "Now, look here," says Col. Leonard, "I've been sawing out lumber down the mill, and there's any quantity of slabs. I'll give the minister as big a load as you can take!" Col. Ephraim was a man for fun. He instigated the townspeople to take hold with him and accept his brother's challenge. First, they made his sled. Long trees were cut for the runners. These were made thirty-old feet long and set eight feet apart. The body of the sled projected two feet over the runner on each side. Thus the sled would hold twelve regular cords at one layer. There were two tongues, one in front of each runner. On the appointed day the men and the oxen from all over town came to the meeting place. The sled was taken to the saw-mill and backed up against the great pile. On went the slabs with a will. Col. Leonard stood by, laughing, cheering, urging them along. When they had got on as much as they thought would do, they hitched up the team. One hundred and sixty oxen, four abreast, found it easy enough to pull. They had to go around through Baldwinville, because there was not room at the Otter river bridge for the sled to turn in. When they had got onto the level ground above Baldwinville, they stopped and unhitched. Then with their every-day sleds they went back to the mill to bring more slabs and pile them on the big load. This they kept up till there were no more slabs. Forty cords lay piled up on that sled. And the evening and the morning were the first day. The next morning came the rest of the journey "up in town." The school children were let out to see the great sight go by. One of them, to whose home it was going, says it looked as big as a house. It lay unloaded for quite a while out by the parsonage, and people came from near and from far to see. It kept Mr. Wellington in slabs for years to come. When the great sled was taken to pieces, some of the timbers were used in building Mr. Winch's barn, and may be seen there in the framework until this day.—Boston Advertiser. St. Patrick's Prayer. The following is part of a hymn still extant in the Irish language which is attributed to St. Patrick, and bears his name. It is said to have been used by him as a prayer when about to attempt the conversion of the Irish monarch Laogharie: I bind myself to-day, The power of God to guide me, The Might of God to uphold me, The Wisdom of God to teach me, The Eye of God to watch over me, The Ear of God to hear me, The Word of God to give me speech, The Hand of God to protect me, The Way of God to be before me, The Shield of God to shelter me, The Host of God to defend me, Against the snare of demons, Against the impatiences of vices, Against the insults of nature, Against every man who meditates injury to me, Whether far or near, With few or with many. Population of the West. At the beginning of the century the population of the great West, which is now about 20,000,000, was a little more than 50,000. The following interesting table shows the growth of that population. Now, look here," says Col. Leonard, "I've been sawing out lumber down the mill, and there's any quantity of slabs. I'll give the minister as big a load as you can take!" Col. Ephraim was a man for fun. He instigated the townspeople to take hold with him and accept his brother's challenge.

In 1846, two sisters finished their course of study in a Western school. The youngest, whom we shall here call Sarah, regarded herself as an altogether exceptional woman, and had brought her school-fellows to think the same. The truth was, she had an active brain, a retentive memory, an indomitable will, and great ambition. She declared the ordinary life of women afforded no scope for her powers. She pursued her studies on leaving school, totally neglected all social and domestic duties, went through a medical course, and was finally admitted to practice in an Eastern city. At that time, such a career involved hard fighting on her part against the press, public opinion, the medical faculty, the very teachers who instructed her. She was quite ready to fight. Her tongue was sharp, her pen facile, her wit bitter and coarse. Such a contest would be justified if her motive had been a sign one, as with many women who leave the beaten track. But in her case, she was urged on neither by a desire to help suffering humanity, to elevate her sex, nor even to develop a defined talent in herself. She simply coveted notoriety. When she had gained her profession It has not been though give the backward as well reading of the following s in those in which there is special reason for printing sions. In going through backward, the requisite punctuation must be under reader: Dies slowly fading day; winds n Brightly stars are waking; Files ooett, hooting; holding re Nightly silence breaking.

At the beginning of the century the population of the great West, which is now about 20,000,000, was a little more than 50,000. The following interesting table shows the growth of that population: | Year | Population | Per cent. of Increase | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 1790 | 61,006 | -- | | 1800 | 81,066 | -- | | 1810 | 233,108 | 47% | | 1820 | 858,957 | 19% | | 1830 | 1,610,473 | 87% | | 1840 | 3,581,542 | 120% | | 1850 | 5,582,413 | 67% | | 1860 | 9,715,692 | 74% | | 1870 | 13,971,421 | 43% | | 1880 | 19,131,810 | 37% | That table is a very interesting one. It is one of the most remarkable features in this remarkable age. A BILL-HEAD of a Texas doctor, thusaly: God and the doctor we alike adore, Just on the brink of danger, not before; The danger passed, both are alike requited, God is forgotten, and the doctor slighted. Those who believe the world owes them a living don't stop to consider how many bad debts the old globe has to shoulder. Turkish Women. The Turkish woman is marriageable at the age of 9 years, and by Turkish law, at that age, if married, she is competent to manage her property and dispose of one-third of her fortune. The law allows her to abandon her husband's house for just cause, and will protect her in so doing. She can not be compelled to labor for the support of her husband. On the contrary, he is compelled to support her, and it is a penal offense to insult or ill-treat her. On an accusation of infidelity her oath is accepted as equally good with his, and collateral proof must be obtained. Should he not furnish her with funds she is authorized to borrow in his name, and even to sell his property. After marriage she has the abso-lute control of her own property, which he can not touch. At a fashionable wedding in London, the majority of the clergy present being total abstainers, two verses of the marriage hymn from "Hymn: Ancient and Modern," where turning the water into wine is alluded to, were entirely omitted. Is not this carrying temperance too far? Chicago's Watch-Boxes. Chicago is ahead of all cities in the union in one respect, and that is in the employment of what are called "watch-boxes." They have been in use but very short time, yet they have so demonstrated their utility that people now wonder how they ever got along without them. They are made of wood, are either square or sextagonal in shape, are about three feet in diameter and seven feet high, and are provided with a telephone locked in a box through a slot in which runs a telegraph alarm lever. Each box is provided with a door that is kept securely locked. The square boxes are usually fastened to a telegraph-pole, while the sextagonal or newer form takes the place of a lamp-post at the corner of street, the lamp being placed on itspex. Every member of the police and fire departments is furnished with keys to the doors of the watch-boxes, and also with keys to open the boxes containing the telephones. Any responsible citizen who desires can procure a key to the doors of the watch-boxes upon making application at the police headquarters. Each key is lettered and numbered, and a register of the names and residences of the parties to whom they are furnished is kept. The boxes adjuncts are trim-built wagons, each drawn by two good horses. They are stationed at convenient intervals throughout the city. Each wagon is manned by a driver and two policemen. We will suppose a citizen is passing along the street late at night, when he encounters a gang of drunken roughs who assault him. There is no policeman within call to assist him, so the gang enters pushing and jostling him about, go on their way. The citizen goes to the next corner, takes out his key and opens the door of the watch-box and pulls down the lever of the telegraph alarm. Each watch-box has its number and location recorded, the same as are fire-alarm boxes. In less than three minutes, and often in a minute, the wagon is at this side with two policemen to assist him. The citizen meanwhile has his key remaining in the box, for while it throws the lock-bolt back the same motion securely fastens it in the box, and he cannot take it out until it is released by a special key, which is only carried by police and firemen. If the citizen is badly injured the wagon takes him to his home or the hospital, while the police go in search of the ruffians who have molested him. This is only one of the numberless ways in which the box can be made useful. It is also used by the police to have drunken or obstreperous men. "The Husking." By J. G. Whittier. It was the pleasant harvest time, When earlier bins are closely slowed, And garrets bend beneath their load, And the old swathes-hunted barns— Brown-grabbed, legged, and full of seams Through which the mounted sun ght streams, And winds blow freshly in to shake The red plumes of the roasted cocks, And the sooess hay-nows' scented locks Are filed with Summer's ripened stores, His odious grass and barley shaves, From their low scaffold to their eaves. On Eek Harden's oaken floor, With many an Autumn's threshing worn, Ley the heapol ears of unhunked corn. And thereby came young men and maids, Became a moon that large and low, Let that sweet eye of long ago. They took their places some by chance, And there by a merry voice, Or sweet smile guided to their choice. How pleasantly the rising moon, Between the sunrays of the morns, Locked on them through the great elm boughs! On sturdy boxhead, run-embrowned, On girlish, with its solid carves Of healthful strength and pinness nerves! And jest went room!, and laughs that made The house-dog sneezes with his how, And keep make the brain-yard fowl; And quiet old sengs their fathers sung In Danny dales and Yorkshire moors, Eve Norman William trod their shores. And takes whose merry license shook That latches of the Saxon throne, Forgetful of the covering Dune— Rude plays to Oldt and Clintry known, The charnel child that beats al! On Ok is bashes this young world's child— That primate picture-spere wherein Have youth and mind the story told So near in each, so last less old. Recalling pastoral Ruth is her Who sailed blushing and denure, The clear skies of forfeiture. When anybody dies, gets married, steals anything, builds a new house, runs away, makes a big sale, whips his wife, breaks his legs, or get his senses knocked out by a mule, or does anything that is any way remarkable and you have reason to believe that you know as much about the occurrence as any one else. Don't wait for some other persons to report or trust us to find it out by instinct, but come and tell us about it, or send the facts on a postal card. DIRECTORY. SOCIETY MEETINGS. THE STEARNS R.

NORTHAM A Literary Curiosity. It has not been thought necessary to give the backward as well as the forward reading of the following sentences, save in those in which there seemed some special reason for printing the two versions. In going through the sentences backward, the requisite changes in the punctuation must be understood by the reader: Dies slowly fading day; winds mournful sigh; Brightly stars are waking; Files owlet, hooting, holding revel high, Nightly silence breaking. Breaking silence nightly, High revel nodding, hoisting owlet files; Waking are stars brighty; Sigh mournful winds; day, fading slowly, dies. Adieu, love. Part we must.

Exercise take, excess beware; Rise early, and breathe pure air; Eat slowly; trouble drive away; Feet warmish keep, bland work with play. Float they gayly side by side, Painting, fearing, doubling never; Laughing, singing, on they glide, Hope and youth companions ever. Rules for Skaters. Never get out of anybody's road.
