Draw up your chair.Stick of wood, Hurry.\u201cSinoke?You've heard of my unclo Popwor th though.Why, yes! You've scon him ;\u2014tho ominently respectable elderly gentleman who camo one day last summer just as you wero going; book under his arm, you remember ; wood on his hat; dry smile on bland countenance ; tall, lank individual in very seedy black.With him my tale begins; for if I had never indul ged in an Uncle Popworth, T should never have sported an Iron-Clad.Quite right, sir; his arrival was a surprise tome.To know how great a surprise, you must understand why I left city, friends, business, and settled down in this quiot village.It was chiofly, sir, to oscape the \u201cfascinations of that worthy old gentleman that I bought this place, and took rofuge here with my wife and little ones \u2014 Here we hud respite, respite\u2014and nepenthe from our memories of Un- clo Popworth; bere we used to sit down in the evening and talk of the past with grateful and tranquil emotions, as people speak of awful things endured in days that are no more.\u2014 To us the hight of human happiness wus raising green corn and strawberries in a retired neighborhood, where uncles were unknown.But, sir, when that Phantom, that Vampire, that |8 Fate, loomed before my vision that day, if you bad said, \u201cTrover, I'll give ye sixpence for this nent little box of yours,\u201d I should have said \u201cDone!\u201d with the trifling proviso that you should take my uncle à in the bargain.The matter with him?What in- {deed could invest human flesh with such torrors,\u2014what but this?he was \u2014he is\u2014let me shriek it in your ear \u2014a bore\u2014a BORE! of the most malignant type; an intolorable, terrible, unmitigated Bore! That book under his arm was a volume of his own sermons;\u2014nino hundred and ninety-nine octavo pages, O, Heaven! It wasn\u2019t enough for him to preach and wopreach those appalling discourses, but then the ruthioss man inust go and print em! When I consider what hook-sellers\u2014worthy men, no doubt, many of them deserving well of their kind\u2014he must have tulled nearly into a state of syncope before ever he found one to give way, in a moment of weakness, of utter exhaustion and despair, and consent to publish.him; and when I reflect what numbers of inoffensive persons, in the quiet walks of life, have been made to suffer the infliction of that Bore's Own Book, I pause, I stand aghast at tho inscrutability of Divine Providence.Don\u2019t think me profane, and don\u2019t for à moment imagine I underrate the function of the preacher.Thero's nothing better than a good sermon,\u2014 one that puts now life into you.But what of a sermon that takes life out of you?instead of a spiritual fountain, a spiritual spongue that absorbs your powers of body and soul, so that the longer you listen the more you are impovorighod ?A morely poor sermon isn't so bad; you will find, if you ave the right kind of a hoarer, that it will suggest something better than itself; a good hon will lay to a bit of carthern.But the discourse of your ministerial vampire, fhstoning by some mystical process upon the hearer who has life of his own,\u2014 thongh not every one has that,\u2014sucks und sucks and sucks; and he is ex hausted while the preacher i is rofresh- ed.So-it happeus that your born bore is never weary of his own boring, ho thrives upon it; while he seems to bo giving, ho is mystoriously taking in,\u2014he is drinking your blood.But, you say nobody is obliged to read a sermon.O my unsophisticnt- ed friend ! if a man will put his tho'ts \u2014or his words, if\u2019 thoughts are lacking \u2014Dbetween covers,\u2014spread his banquet, and respectfully invite Public Pasto to partake of it, Public Tast being free to decline, thon your observation is sound.If an author quietly buries himself in Lis book,\u2014very good! hie jacot; pence (o his ashes! \u201cThe time has been \u2018That, when the brains were outthe man would die, And there an end; but now they rise again,\u201d ns Macbeth observes, with some confusion of syntax, excusable in a person of his circumstances, Now, suppose they\u2014or he\u2014the man whoso rains are out\u2014goes about with his toffin under his arm, liko my worthy uncle ?and suppose he blandly, » politely, relontlossly iusists upon reading to you, out of that octavo sarcophagus, passages which in his opinion prove that he is not dend, but immortal ?\u2014 If such a man be n stranger, snub him; if a casual nequaintance, met in an evil hour, there is still hopo,~doors havo locks, and there are two sides to a street, and nearsightedfiess is a blessing, and (us n Inst resort) buttons buttons may ho sacriticed (you remember Lamb's story of Color idgo), and loft in the cluteh of tho fatal fin- gors.But one of your own kindred, and vory respectabic, adding the claim of misfortune to his other claims upon you-pachydermatous to slights, smilingly porsuasive, gently porsist- out,\u2014ns imperturbable ne n ship\u2019 wooden figure-head throngh all tho ups and downs of the vo pe of lifa, and as insensible to cold water sin short, an uncle like my uncle, whom there was no getting rid of ;=what tho deuce would you do Exactly, runaway as I did.There was nothing clse to bo done, unless, indeed, I had throttled the old gontle- man; in which case I am confident that ono of\u2019 our modern modol juries would have brought in the popular verdict of justigublo insanity.But being a peuacenble man, I was avorso to extrome mensures, So I did the noxt best thing.\u2014consulted my wife, and rotired to this village.Thon consider the shock of my feelings when we looked up that day and saw the onemy ofour pence stalle- ing into our little paradiso with his 38 book under his arm and his carpet- STANSTEAD, P.Q, THURSDAY, AUGUST 28; bug in his hand! coming with his sermons and his shirts, prepared to stay a weuk, that is to say un year, that is to suy forover, if'we would suffer him,\u2014and bow was he to bo hinder ed by any desperate measures short of burning the house down ?\u201cMy deur nephew,\u201d says he, striding toward me with onger stops, as you perhaps \u2018remember, smiling Gis eternally di \", loathery smile, \u2014 \u2014\u201cNoph- ew Frederick !\"\u2014and he held out both hands to mo, book in one und bag in t'other,\u2014\u201c1 am rejoiced.Ono would almost think you had tried to hide away from your old uncle?1've been three days hunting you up.And how is Dolly ?she ought to be glad to sce me, after all the trouble 1've had in finding you! And, Nephew Frederick !\u2014h\"m! can you lend me three dollers for the Imekman ?for 1 don't happen to have\u2014thank you !\u2014 [should have saved this if you had only known 1 was stopping last night at a public house in the noxt village for 1 know how delighted you would have been to drive over and fetch me!\u201d If you were not already out of hearing, you may have noticed that I made no reply to this affecting speech.The old geutleman hus grown quite deaf of late ycars\u2014an infirmity which was once a source of untold misery to his friends, to whom he was constantly appealing for their opinions, which they were obliged to lout in his ear.But now, happily, the world has almost coused responding to him, and ho bus almost coused {o expect responses from the world.\u2014 He just catches your eye, aud, when he says, \u201cDon\u2019t you think 50, sir ?\u201d or \u201cWhat is your opinion, sir?\u201d an approving nod does your business.The hackman paid, my dear uncle accompanied me to the house, unfolding the catalogue of his woes by tho way.For Le is one of those worthy, unoffending persons whom an ungrate- tul world jostles and tramples upon,\u2014 whom unmerciful disaster follows fast and follows faster.In his younger days, he was settled over I don't know how many diflerent parishes; but secret enmity pursued him every where, puisoning the parochial mind against him, and driving him rolent- lessly from place Lo place, Then he relapsed info agencies, and went through a long list of them, each terminating in a flat failure, to his, over- recuirrng surprise,\u2014the simple soul never suspecting, to this day, who his one great, tireless, terrible enemy is.1 got him into the library, and went to talk over this unexpected visit with Dolly.She bore up under it more cheerfully that could be expected,\u2014supprosscd a sigh,\u2014and said sho would go down and meet him.Sho received him with a hospitable smile |v (I verily believe that more of the world's hypocrisy proceeds from too much good-nature than from too little), and listened patiently to his explanations.\u201cYou will chserve that I have brought my bag,\u201d says be, \u201cfor I knew you wouldn't lot me off for a day or two,\u2014though I must positively leave in a week,\u2014in two weeks at latest.1 have brought my volume, too, for I am contemplating a new edition\u201d (he is always contemplating a new edition, making that a pretext for lugging the book about with him), \u201cand 1 wish {0 enjoy the advantages of your and Fred's criticism ;\u2014I anticipate sume good, comfortable, old- time talks over Lhe old book, Frederick! We had invited some village friends Lo como in and eat strawberries and cream with us that afternoon ; and the question arose, what should be done with the old goutloman.Harry, who is a lad of a rather lively fancy, coming in while we were taking advantage of his uncle's denthess to discuss this subjoet in his presence, propased a pleasant expedient.\u201cTrot him out into the cornfield, introduce Lim to the scarecrow, and let him talk to that,\u201dsays he, grinning up into tho visitor \"a face, who grinned down at him, no doubt thinking what a wonderfully charming boy he was! If he were as blind as he is deaf, he might have been disposed of vory comfortably in some ingenious .way; \u2014the scarecrow, ov any other lay figure, might have served to engage him in one of his immortal monalogues.\u2014 As it was, tho suggostion bore fruit Inter us you will sce.While we wero consulting\u2014keep- ing up our scattering fire of small- arms under the old talker's heavy guns\u2014our parish minister called,\u2014 old Dr.Wortleby, for whom wo have a great liking and vospect.Of course we had to introduce him to Unclo Papworth,\u2014for they met faco to face: and of course uncle Popworth faston- ed at onco upon the brothor clergyman.Boing my guest, Wortleby could do no less than to listen to Pop- worth, who is my uncle.He listened until interest and sympathy wore exhausted.Thon, attempting to go, he got his hat, and sat with it in his hand half an hour longer.Then he stood half an hour on his poor old gouty foot, desporately edging toward the door.\u201cAb, certainly,\u201d says he, with a weary smile, repontedly endeavoring to break tho spell that bound him.\u2014 \u201cI shall be most happy to hear the 8 conclusion of your remarks at some futuro time\u201d (ovon ministors can lie out of politeness); \u201cbut just now\u2014\" \u201cOne word more, and am done,\u201d cried my Uncle Popworth, for the fiftieth timo; and V ortloby, i in duspair, sit down again.Then our frionds arrived.Dolly and I, who had been all the while enovolontly wishing Wortleby would go, and trying to help him of, now solfiahly hoped he would remain mé share our entertainment\u2014and our Uncla Popworth.\u201c] ought to have gone \u2018two hours ago,\u201d he suid with a plaintive smile, in reply to our invitation; \u201cbut, redl- ly, 1 an feeling tho need of a cup of on (and no wonder!) \u201cand I think I wi Wo eruolly wished that ho no continue to ongngo my uncle in, cop.[sl versation ; but tant would have \u2018botn | too much to hope from the sublime endurance of à martyr, if ever there wus one more patient than he.® Seo.ing the Lintons and the Groggs \u2018arrive, he craftily awaited bis opportunity, aud slipped off, to give then a turn on the gridiron.First Linton was secured; aud you should have seen him roll bis mute, apponting orbs as ho sottled holplessly down under the infliction.Suddenly he made a dash.\u2018Fam ignorant of these matters,\u201d said he; but Gregg understands them Grogs will talk with you.But Gregg took refuge behind the Indies, The ladies, receiving a hint from poor distressed Dolly, seattorod.But no artifice availed against tho dreadful man, Piazza, parlor, garden, \u2014ho ranged everywhere, and was sure to soize a victim, AL last tea was ready, and wo all went in.The Lintons and Groggs are people of the world, who would hardly havo eared to wait fora blos- sing on such lovely heaps of straw- borries and mugs of cream as they suw before them; but, there being two clergymen nt the table, the core- mony was evidently expected.We wore placidly seated; there was a hush, agreebly filled with the fragrance of the\" : SLD = in! ile mel CAE a; and bows obtained his.Ce de 5 and his shirt,

steamers, as the pressure of water from the water works w.s far too insignificant to make any impression on the marching monster.The fire still increased, fanned by an increasing wind, until it was feared a good portion of the city must suffer.At length it took direction toward St.Charles River, burning wharves and two schooners, All the time the people were energetic in their efforts, and, hoping against hope, contested every inch of ground.A French frigate in port sent a complement of men to assist, and the Dominion artillery and city and provincial police joined to help, but before the fire was oxtinguishèd, which was late in the afternoon, from $150,000 to $200,000 damage was done.Que- beckers were in a very oxcited stato, as at onc time it scomed as if there was to be a repetition of the grent fire of 1868.Tho principal loser is W.Dunn, whoso logs amounts to $120,000; insurance, $25,000.Two hundred men are thrown out of employment.C\u2014O A\u2014\u2014\u2014 ee Railroad Accident.New York, Aug.25.\u2014On the South Sido Railroad, Long Island, this morning, between I'reeport and Babylon, the three last cars of the second morning express train from\" Patchogue jumped off the track and rolled over and over.- There were only about twonly passengars in the cars, mostly women and children, all of whom were more or less cut and injured.\u2014 only one child is supposed to bo injured fatally.The cause of the uc- cident is attributed to rotton rails and sleepers, Ponrzanp, ME, Aug.25.\u2014Seven carsof a freight train were thrown from the track a mile beyond North Berwick, this afternoon, \u2018caused by a long spar rolling off.Passengers on the down trains from Bosten and up from Portland had to be transferred.Theo track is torn up for some distance, No one was hart.Tho train arrived in this city about midnight.WueeLiNe, W.VA, Aug.25.\u2014The accident to tho emigrant train on th Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, near Cameron, yesterday, was not as serious ng first reported.Four passon- P- gors were seriously and some eight or ten slightly injured, but none either killed or fatally injured.Marsuany, Texas, Aug.25.\u2014Seven cars of n construction train rin of the track down an embankment near Glade station lust night, killing the conductor and seriously injuring five workmen and nine convicts, ST.ALDANS, VT., Aug.26.\u2014A man belioved to be J.LI.Loverty of Bridg ort, Conn., was run ovor and killed y the cars near the Georgia station to-day.A batch of Russians Mononites, the vanguard of the body of two or three hundred thousand people who are going to settle on this American continent, has arrived in New York.\u2014 These first arrivals are going to take up lands in the States.As, however, we may shortly expect the arrival of the colony which has had allotted to it move than one township in Manito ba, any information respecting the new-comers is intoresting.The New York papers look upon the immigration as à remarkablo one, among other reasons because no.set of men evor have arrived here so well supplied with funds ns these Russinns, ence their movements are destined to af ford to a consideruble extent the tor- ritory which they may elect to settle in, © The richest man among those who arrived by the stenmer Hammon- ig, from Hamburg, is a Mr.Poter Liuack, who brings his wife and four children.This gentleman brought with him $140,000 in gold.Another gentleman had with him $67,000 in gold, while all the rest brought from $4,000 to $25,000, each family averaging nbout $10,000.As there wero some twenty families in the steerage this would make an aggregate of $200,000, which, with the money of Mr, Isanck, would give a total of $340, 000 brought by twenty families, The result of so rich an immigration can hardly bo overestimated.Another fuct is worthy of note\u2014the large families of these Menonites.One family consists of twelve, onc of eleven, one of nine, two of cight, one of seven three of six, one of five, three of four, five of three, and five unmarried persons\u2014making a total of sixty- nine children and forty-one adults.\u2014 \u2018Their destination is some point in Dakota.The agents in Europe negotiating the bonds of the Texas Pacific, have not had, however, such a success with the Russians as they anticipated, most of them being unwilling to listen tc the glowing representations made to them by all sorts of railroad agents, very sensibly proferring to examine for themselves the lands they are to settle and to study the country they are to inhabit.They are described as a quiet moral, inoffensive people, self-denying and economical, and although they donot bring with thom much in tho way of talent and education thoy will, by their united action, make whatover points they colonize thrifty, and rapidly build up the country around thom, No doubt the Canadian contingent will arrive shortly, as we notice that another body of Menonites is expected in a few days at Now York.\u2014 Gazette, ONE or Lorp GORDON'9 Frars\u2014 Tho Duluth Herald of the 14th inst.says : \u201cA gentleman informs us that Mrs.Cornish, wifo of one of \u2018Lord Gordon Gordon's counsel, passed thro\u2019 Duluth a few days ago, her fingers and wrists covered with jewelry, which her husband had received as part of his fee.Bat it seems Mrs.Cornish did not get the finest jewel of the ras- cul Gordon, as he has yet a single diamond worth $25,000, one of those he is accused of having obtained under false pretences in London, while playing Lord Glencairn.In this connection we will just here mention a little theft committed by his \u2018lordship\u2019 when in St.Paul.It seems he was \u2018lording\u2019 it at the Metropolitan Hotel, and there made the acquaintence of Mrs.Loomis, wife of Col Loomis, at \u2018the time Land Commissioner on the Northern Pacific, who was also stopping with Colonel Dutcher.Mrs, Loomis wore a magnificent solitary diamond ring, which she had occasion to remove from her finger and place on the wash stand.Shortly after, his \u2018lordship\u2019 having entered the room to par bis respects to her and her hus- and, the diamond was missing, and it was given up for lost.In tho valise captured at the house of Mr.McKay, when the so-called kidnappers got hold of Gordon, was found this identical ring, & vory good proof indeed that \u2018me lord\u2019 was the thief.\u201d CoLrisioN.\u2014An nccident that was luckily unattended with loss of life, occurred at the depot Brompton Falls, on Tuesday morning carly.There wero standiug on the siding two cars laden with lumber belonging to the Brompton Mills Company, and a freight train backing into this siding to allow another freight train to pass, drove these two cars close up to the switch.\u2018There appears to have been no switchman in attendence, and the night being dark the driver was ignorant of what he had done.Shortly after the freight train coming in from the opposite direction ran into those two cars, smashing them into piecos.Tho tender of the train was broken up and two or\u2018three cars.The engineer and fireman escaped uninjured.\u2014 News.À \u2018special

becauso unique ; #0 J will givo it as near as\u2019T çan-\u2018remember., Before doing eo, however, 1 will relate an incident on the Union Pacific Railway, that has \u2018un\u2019 intimate contibetion with the éubjeët in\u201d question: Not long ago, 1 read in-some \u2018papor thät in\u2018somio Portion of its length the Union Pacific Railroad passes chrough what wWas'once a rainless dis: trict, but sinco the advent of that rond, this district was oqually watered with tho rest of the country, nnd green grass.and indigenous vegetation generally, has.sprung up and is growing nutaral than to look to the continuous double line of iron rails that traverse the coum as being the cause, by equally distributing the .atmosphorie olectricty; and thus prevent the increase of the capacity of the clouds for holding moisture, by radiation to them of heat, when passing over the highly heated, arid desert?Itis notalarge district, yet sufficiently so to give ground for the belief that with the proper appliances and experiments, something liko the one proposed be.posed below, might bo tied with some sbow of success.As I understand it, this theory presupposes that the hypothesis that oloc- tricity resides only on tho surface of the.minuto globules of water, and that with the increase\u2014or intensifying\u2014 of electricity, the temperature also is increased, is correct; otherwise, I think, it would prove untenable.Tt proposés to orect at suitable distances, and if possible, on high ground, 4 a great number of high poles, suppor ing at their tops, immense electric ru- diators; These radiators to be made of a great number of wires pointing in every direction from a common contre, Each radiator to bo connocted by a wire.orwires, in such & manner that the connection can be broken with any one or more similar radiators.\u2014 ; | Upon some hill, or higher ground, very \u2018powerful generators of oloctricity are to bo placed ; theso also, to bo eur- mounted by radiators, 'and are to bo operated by powerful steam engines.To explain the operation of this \u201cweather regulating system\u201d 1 will locate a fow of the radiators and a \u201cgenerntor\u201d in \u2018imaginary places as follows i The \u201cgencrator\u201d in the vicinity.of the aforo mentioned village of Spankins\u2019 Holler, and the radiators, scattered about the country within a radiug of ten or fifteen miles, viz ;\u2014- Ono at old Deacon Faulifinders farm ; one at Rainy 1Iill ; another at Thun der Gap, &c.Thg old Deacon, by a proconcertod signal, telegraphs to the oporalor at the \u201cgonerator,\u201d that ho wants rain ;.eorn all drying up, A bout the same time, a message arrives on the wires, that it has been raining constantly for three days, at Rainy Hill aid Thunder Gap; bridges all being carried away.The operator immediately \u201cfires up\u201d his engino and gets it to work, drawing tho electric eurront from the old Deacon's radiator and discharging it at the other two places.Now jf the theory is correct, and the cleetric generator powerful onough, what is tho result ?The clouds that Rainy Hill and Thunder Gap, on receiving un accession of hent with the electricity that is being poured into them, commences to \u201cdry.up\u201d forthwith, because their capueity for holding moisture is increased, condensation is suspended.In a little while the clouds will havo disappearo.l, and the magniticent source ot'all heat, once moro shines upon the rajui cing Rainy Uillites and Thunder Gapors.What ocenrs with the old Deacon in the meantime ?The cloctrie heat has been drawn away from the atmosphero in his vicinity, so that almost Dotore he is aware of it, clouds have formed and obscured the light of the \u201cmorci- loss sun.\u201d Still tho olectrie curront continues to depart, until the - clouds becomo so condensed that a gentle rain begins to fall; while the \u201cwaving corn\u201d waves still move, with the gentle breeze that has sprung up, its tapering loaves apparently enjoying the refreshing buth.To carry out the project still further, it is proposed that tho whole country shall Lo studded with radiators, and at various points thronghout, gen- érators be erceted ; so that in caso of & vory honvy storm in some particular scction, they all can be connected to the radiators in that section, aud by working simultaneously inject sufficient electric heat into the storm clouds, to arrest them in their course.And if it should happen that no other part of the country was in need of rain, the oloctricity could ho drawn froin the great reservoir\u2014tho earth\u2014 with equal facility, where too, it could be discharged, when not needed olsc- where.\u2019 Theso are the main features of the *4éather régnlating theory,\u201d as near aa Lean remombor it, and I give it for what it is worth.Everybody is on à strike now, ns is vont in Sy time \u2014Darbury News.The mellow voice of the hand-organ is.now heard in Drnbury.\u2014 Danbury ews.> .Le SU FÉES ARE TS A A EE The |.~~ AEE \u2018 LS THE BETTER WAY!
