Vermont has within ita borders more quint, interesting towns, than any other state ia the onion. Perhaps Jeroey TOle U the oldest, quaintest, snd most lifeless one of the whole lot.. The inhab itants number about two hnndred, round figures. The mail arrives and departs twice a week, and a brass (windy) band discourses patriotic music, such as "Yankee Dnde-'I-do," etc., in front of the town hall, every fourth of July. Ameet-ia'-bouse stands in the center of the town, flanked on all sides by the principal bas siness houses, to-wit : A tavern, a gen eral store, a hotel, and a blacksmith's shop. The Rev. T. P. Jones, the pastor of the flock, while attending to the spiritual wants of the people, also dispensed legal food as a Justice of the Peace, and de voted the balance of his time in presiding ever Uncle Ham's mail pouch, behind a little desk in the "general store." As a pastor he was universally liked, but as a Justice of the Peace be was barely toler ated, while he was despised entirely when he took up his position behind the letter boxes. There were always on hand half dozen villagers who were eternally looking for a letter "from the. folks out West." They called regularly, but the letters never came, and the indignant villagers learned to dislike the post master as though it were his fault. Next to Kev. Jones in point of prom inence, came Walter Winter, a rich young farmer who lived with his aged mother just ostside the village. Walter had re ceived a fair education, and this fact made him a very important personage in the village, tie was a generous young man, and, like all other good young men , he had a peculiar fault. lie was fickle and inconstant in love. He had already kept steady company with several young ladies, and had given them "the mitten," as the country lad would sav. At this late be was "entrazed" as usual, to the pretty daughter of a rich neighbor, who secretly vowed that if Walter went back on his word this time "he would make it exceedingly uncomfortable for him. Annie Hose, the object of Walter's adoration, was a prepossessing blonde of nineteen srmmers. Walter remained very attentive to Annie, and the wise beads began to count on an early marriage. Harvest time came and Walter needed an extra hand on the farm. He had not long to wait, for one morning a stranger anjwared at his door and asked for work. Walter took tne young man into his house, questioned him, and then set him to work. The young man worked Hard while in the field, and Walter was not long in find ing in him a valuable assistant. He gave his name as Jerry Islack; claimed to be an orphan, and to be well educated. He made a decided impression on the yil lagers, and soon his society was in great demand. To all their attentions be was indifferent. He at last was forced to enter society, and, to the surprise of all, showed a decided tireference for Annie Koae. That young miss was indifferent at first, but soon began to show unmis takable signs of a lively interest in Jerry This Dazzled the village while it set Walter to thinking. Jerseyyille was treated to more than one surprise that year. A robbery was committed one night early in August. Now a robbery was not a wonderful thing anywhere else in the broad world save in that sleepy, hospital town. A farmer's house had been broken into and noma fifty odd dollars taken. A meeting was held at which all the farm era and farm-hands attended. The moat active man at the meeting was Jerry Black. He advised the men to band to- getber, bunt the villain down, and pun ish him severely. This suggestion was acted upon, and so popular had Jerry be come that he was chosen as their leader. While Walter Winter held no misgivings as to Black, yet, he determined to keep a close watch on both him and Annie. The very next night another bold rob bery was committed, ia which an old farmer was knocked senseless by a heavy blow and all his money taken. Jerry was the first one to learn of the affair and col lected a body of men. scoured the coun try, but to no avail. The next night Walter's house was visited and quite a sum taken. Jerry claimed to have been a great loser, for besides being chloroformed, he lost his last cent. Excitement was intense. The men betran to sit up all night, so as to mi an! their nropertv. Jerry's misfortune only made him more notMilar. Pooularitv seemed to torn his head, for he left Walter's service, and openly announced himself as a candidate for Annie's hand. Fate seemed to smile m him. for the village was again excited. The excitement was now caused by the appearance of a young lady giving her name as Miss Down, and occupation as school teacher. She rented a small house and soon had a fine class. Walter met her on the road one day and fell in love with her. At first he tried to mask his feelings, but finding that Jerry and Annie were getting along very nicely, he ran op his true colors and became the ardent suitor of Mias Downs. Yet. withal, one angry word bad not yet been spoken by either Annie or Walter himself. Miss Downs soon became a general fa vorite, and her class began to swell. Burglaries bad grown to be common oc curence and, in the course of time. Miss Downs was the victim. Hhe seemed to Uke the loss in a mat ter-of-fact way. But, if the villagers could have been present at a little con' ferenca that was held in her boose the following night, about twelve, they would have taken a different view of the affair. The little assemblage was composed of three strange men and herself. They held a . long conversation, and along ' toward I o'clock all left the boose save Miss Downs, and going oat on the road they suddenly disappeared. .Miss Downs now turned down the light, changed her entire dress, and shortly afterwards left the house. Meanwhile Jerry Black had so wroae-ht himself into the affections of the Rose family that the old homestead was placed t ui disposal, ue was, at tins date, pressing his suit hard, with the hope of setting an early date for his marriage to Annie. As to Walter, well he had no time to lose thinking of Annie, for he was busily engaged with Miss Downs. About this time Mr. Rose had sold a atrirj of land for a snug sum, and on the day aner tne ourgiary on Miss Downs' bouse be received the amount in fnll He took Jerry into bis confidence and exacted of hire a promise to remain at the house all night to guard the money. Jerry was taken sick very suddenly, and could not fulfill his promise. It was with misgiv ings that he retired that night just about the time Miss Downs left her little house. The light in Mr. Hose's room had been turned down about a half hoar when a man appeared in the road iust sooth of the farm. He walked very fast until he was ODDoeite the eate. when he halted. looked around, and then walked op the lane to the bouse. Ashe approached it huge dog sprang towards him. He baited long enough to speak a familiar word to the dog and then proceeded on his way towards the door unmolested by t he brute. The door yielded to the man's key, and after looking around once more be entered. No sooner had the door closed than a slight form sprang from be hind a bush close by and took up a posi tion a little to the left of the door. The person gave a signal, add two men sud denly appeared -a few yards from the honae, while a fourth man sprang from behind a tree. Tbey leveled their re volvers at the door while the first party turned the lurid glare of a dark lantern on the door also. Meanwhile they heard a noise upstairs, then a scream, and at last footsteps approaching the door. A second elapsed before the door opened and the thief stood before them, baffled and entrapped. It was Jerry Black. The first man, who was the leader of the party, ordered Jerry to throw np his hands, which he did with grace. Then he was handcuffed, and when Mr. Rose came down stairs half dead from fright. be was startled at seeing his intended son-in-law marched away as a burglar and a fugitive from New York justice. The next morning when the school children went to school they found a notice tacked .1 j t i up on toe aoor wntcn reaa : "Closed for good. Miss Downs." People wondered what happened te Miss Downs. Tbey were not kept in sus pense very long, lor that same day Walter received a letter which informed him that "Miss Downs" was nothing more less than a New York male detec tive in search of Henry Sharp, a noted thief, and, as be had been captured in the person of Jerry Black. "Miss Downs" had ceased to exist. Walter and Annie never made up; in fact both are confirmed opponents of the matrimonial craze, while the Kev. Jones still insists that his bet should be de clared "off." EXERCISING MORAL SUASI05. It is a common habit with colored cotton-pickers to strike for higher wages.

Among: Others, the Towels The Mod ern Improvements in the Hos telry System. America has made many gigantic strides, aside from those made at the bat tle of BulT run, and ber peeple spend much of their time pointing with pride to her remarkable progress, but we are prone to dwell too much upon our ad vantages as a summer resort and our adroit methods of declining the presi dency before we are asked, while we for get some of our more important improve ments, like the elevated railway and the American hotel. Let us, for a moment, look at the great changes that have been wrought in ho tels during the past century. How mark ed has been the improvement and how wonderful the advancement. Everything has been changed. Even the towels have been changed 1 Electric bells, consisting of a long and alert wire with an overcoat button at one end and a reticent boy at the other, have taken the place of the human voice and a low-browed, red elm club. Where once we were compelled to fall down a dark, narrow staircase, now we can go down the elevator or wander down the wrong starwap and find ourselves in the laun dry. Where once we were mortified by be ing compelled to rise at table, reach nine feet and stab a porous pancake with fork, meantime wiping the milk gravy out of a large yellow bowl with our coat tails, now we can hire a tall, lithe gentleman in a lull-dress sent to pass us tne pan cakes. Even the bar rooms of American ho tels are changed. Once the bartender waited till his customer ran all his re marks into one long, hoarse word, with a hiccough on the end, and then he took him by the collar and threw him out into the cold and chaotic night. Now the bar- tendel gradually rises on the price of drinks until his customer is frozen out, and while be has gone to the reading room to borrow some more money the chemist moves tbe bar somewhere else, and when the guest returns he finds a barber shop where he thought he left barroom. One hundred years, on tbeir swut pin ions, have borne away the big and ear nest dinner bell and tne sway-backed hair trunk that surprised a man so when he sat down upon it to consider what clothes he would put on first. All these evidences of our crude, em- bryotic existence are gone, and in their places we have electric bells and Sarato ga trunks wherein we may conceal our hotel room and still have space left for our clothes. It is very rare now that we see United States senator snaking a two-year- old Mambnno hair trunk up three fights of stairs to his room in order to secure labor vote. Men, as well as hotels and hotel soap, have changed. V here once a cake of soap would only last a few weeks, science has come in and perfected a style of pink soap, flavored with vanil la, that will last for yearn, and a new shpperyelm towel that in absolutely im- previous to moisture, liana in band. this soap and towel go gaily down the corridors of time, welcoming the coming and speeding the parting guest, jumping deftly out of the hands of the aristocracy into the bands of a receiver, but always calm, smooth and Iatherless. A great many droll characters and bright, shrewd men are met with among hotel proprietors wherever you go. "The Fat Contributor" was lecturing once in the state of Kentucky, and bad occasion to take dinner at a six-bit hotel. After the meal Mr. Griswold stepped np to the counter, took out a bale of blank-notes which be bad received for his lecture the evening before, and asked what might be the damage. "Three dollars. said the blue grass gentleman, who bad buttoned his collar with a ten penny nail, while be looked at "Gris" with a pained expression. "Yes, but a man ought to be able to board here a week for S3. Tbe whole house didn't cost more than t40 or (45 V hat s your idea in charging me 3 for wad of hominy and a piece of parched pork 7" "Well, sir," said the urbane landlord as he put out the fire at a distance Of twenty feet by emptying his salivary sur plus on it, "1 need the money I The frankness and open, candid man ner of the man won Mr. Una wold, and he asked him if he thought $3 would enough. The landlord said be could get along with that. Then Griswold opened his valise and took out a large brunette bottle of linameot marked "for external use." He passed it over to tbe landlord and told him that he would find this stuff worked as well on trw inside as it did on the outside. In ! -.w moments the lini ment of lite "Fat Contributor" and tbe lineaments of the landlord bad merged into each other, and a friendly feeling sprang np between the two men which time has never effaced. I have often thought of this and wondered why it is that hotel men are not more open and cordial with their en. Many a tin I have paid a larsre bill grudgingly when would have done it cheerfully if the landlord had told me be was in need. I had intended to speak at some length on the new rope law, by which every man is made his own vigilance committee, bat I feel that I m already encroaching on tbe advertising space and so will have to omit it. In conclusion, I will sav that tbe American hotels are far preferable to those we have in Paris in uaev. ways, and not only outstrip those of nglaod and the continent, even as a corps de ballet outstrips s Toboggan club, bat they seem to excel and everlastingly knock the ancient hnf-is of Carthage, Home and lie Siding Mify. ORIENTAL WEDDINGS. The world will probably never again behold the costly magnificence, the un- equaled splendor of the marriage festivi ties of the Oriental monarch a. As no so cial effort has availed to restore the inde scribable tint, tone and seat which the halcyon days of chivalry gave to luxury, romance and valor, so do people who have placed limitations to royal power can do more than read of the grandeur where absolute monarchy poured out the wealth of the world to give dazzling gor geoueness to the scenes of the bridal day. The munificence attending the marriages of the children of Timour, Khan of all the artars, would, were it not for authentic records, be deemed an Arabian fable. To appreciate such splendor we must re call how the wealth of nations was gath ered at Samareand. When Timoor was proclaimed Tartary was a mighty empire. More than fifty millions of people ac knowledged his sovereignty. The con quests of his life added over two hundred million subjects. He plundered India of ber gold, silver, precious stones, diadems, cinctures spangled with diamonds oi Gol- conoa, ruDies ana sappaires oi veytan, its ebony and ivory, to grace his capital. Persia, Georgia, Irak, Damascus, Aleppo, Broussa. Armenia. Messopotamia.parta of Greece, Syria and all Asia Minor were despoiled of the unbounded treasures stored under the utfoman uaiipris. Of this great Tartar capital, whence all this wealth was taken, history says: 'Samareand, the center of these magnif- icencies, the depot of these riches, arose and extended itself as by a miracle. Bag dad, Babylon, Perse polis. Palmyra, Baal- beck, Damascus, Constantinople, Home, Athens, were put in the shade by those palaces, those gardens, those aqueducts, these mosques which arose of a sudden amid the steppes of Tartary and beneath the hands of the Greek and Arabian ar tists called from their country by Ti moor." Here, beneath a royal tent, was celebrated the marriage of one ot his sons to a princess ot Persia. The grandeur which intoxi cated the eyes of the witnesses is thus described: A throne of gold, crowns of diamonds, horns full of precious stones spilled like water under the feet of the young couple ; avenues of censers mat penumea wun mnsKanaamDergns; the dome of the nuptial tent, formed by a firmament of lapis-lazuli, whereon in crusted diamonds represented the stars and constellations ; the curtains of the tent in woven gold ; the pineapple which surmounted it at the center chiseled in a block of the fine amber.' At a later period, about the year 1404, six of hjs grandsons were married at once in a pal ace at Samareand which rivaled any the world has known. The exterior walls were faced with porcelain of China and of Persia, of which tbe polished and varied colors represented the rays of the sun and dazzled the eyes ; the interior was incrusted with jewels, precious stones and ivories so as to defy descrip tion ; rivulets and jets of water murmur ing in alabaster diffused refreshness an4 life beneath the shade of domes painted by the pencil of Greek artists. The nara- a tor of these statements thus describes thfe wedding: The spoils of the universe strewed the apartments and the gardens beneath the feet of the young consorts. Pearls, sapphires, diamonds rained like dustnpon their heads. Rare animals from all the countries of the globe, from the giraffe of Ethiopia to tbe ostriches of ftenaar, and the lions of Africa, were presented to the affianced. Mine times did tbe married pairs change under the eyes of limonr as many magnincent suits of apparel, rune times was each engirdled with different solid cinctures of a tissue of pearls and diamonds. There being six couples this would requira 108 such solid cinctures. It being the cus tom then to prostrate themselves and touch their foreheads to the dust before the khan, tbe ground was covered with gold dust whereon they bowed. The light of civilization no longer admits of the absolute disposal of such wealth, but how all future efforts of munificence must pale beside the remembrance of 'the thing that hath been.' Thoi.V.
