Historical Reminiscences*
The Battle of Bloody Brook.
In the Autumn of the year 1615,
a little army of brave men had asup
sembled at the town of Hadley, on
the banks of the Connecticut River,
to defend that place and the neigh
boring hamlets from the attacks of
the Indians, who, banded togeth
er under the command of the brave
Philip, had committed many and
serious depredations along the val
ley of the river. Among other towns
which had suffered from the ma
lignant hate of the savages, was
Deerfield, a few miles above Hadley.
This place had been partially burned
and the inhabitants scattered during
the previous summer, and there yet
remained in the fields some three
thousand bushels of wheat, in stacks,
just as the husbandman had left it
when driven from his home. It was
desirable not only to obtain this for
the use of the little army and thedays
numerous families who had assem
bled at Hadley for protection, but
also to keep it from falling into the
hands of the Indians, and it was
decided to send a party to
thresh it out and transport it to
head-quarters. Capt. Lithrop was
appointed to command the detail of
sixty-six men and eighteen teams
ters, who had been selected for thevage
expedition. It was made up of
young men, the very "flower of the
country," who burned to distinguish
themselves in aid of the cause which
they were assembled to defend,the
sanctity of their homes and firesides.
Many a cheek was wet as they
took up their march towards their
destination, and many a maiden
heaved a deep drawn sigh as her lover
disappeared from her sight for, al
though no immediate danger was
apprehended, yet none knew in
those troublous times when the
storm might break upon their devot
ed heads, and overwhelm them in
its fury. The departure of so con
siderable a body of their choicest
men, therefore, gave cause of uneas
iness to all, and unnumbered prayers
were offered to Heaven for their sate
return.
Arriving in safety at Deerfield,
the men commenced with a will the
performance of their work, and the
grain was threshed out, the teams
loaded, and with light heaits they
stdrted to return to their expectant
fi lends The savage enemy had,
however, through their numerous
spies, obtained intelligence of the
expedition, and determined to cut it
off. Collecting a body of between
six and seven hundred warriors,
Phillip* narrowly watched the move
ments of Capt. Lathrop and hismembeis
part}, and when they started to re
turn, he planned an ambuscade at a
spot which in every way was suited to
his purpose.
After leaving Deerfield, for some
three miles the road run nearly par
allel with the Connecticut River,
through a level country it then di
verged, and for a half a mile ran
along the edge of a morass, which it
crossed, and took a southerly direct
ion towards Sugar loaf Hill, across
what are now the "home lets," to
the eastward of the Village of South
Deerfield. The morass was covered
with a thick growth of underbrush,
which afforded concealment for the
savage foe, who, with nostrils dilat
ed and eyes gleaming with deadly
hate, lay in waiting, like a couchant
tiger, trembling in their eagerness,
spring upon their unsuspecting vic
tims. Little dreaming of the dan
ger which lurked in their path, the
little company of brave hearts came
onward to their fate. With lament
able carelessness, Lathrop failed to
throw out flankers on his front and
flanks, but marched bhndtold into
the snare laid for him by the cun
ning Phillip. Crossing the morass,
without suspecttng the proximity of
their foe, the little band reached
the banks of a small stream, or ri
vulet, which crossed the road, near
which, tradition informs us, grew
great quantities of the luscious wild
grape, which were ripening in the
sun, and the tempting bunches hung
in profusion from among the branch
es of the surrounding trees. While
waiting for the teams to draw their
heavy loads through the morass,
they carelessly piled their arms and
hastened to partake of the tempting
repast so bountifully spread.
Now was the opportunity for the
savage foe, and "quick as fire from
smitten steel," a volley was poured
upon the devoted youths which lay
low many a promising form. Cool
and calm under all circumstances,
and as brave as cool, they rallied at
the word, and seizing their arms,
dealt back upon their fiend-like ene
my a shower of balls which made
many a warrior bite the dust. A
second, and a third, aimed with a
clear eye and steady nerves, told so
well that the savages began to vr .ver.
A gleam of Hope broke through the
fearful prospect, and for a moment
they dreamed of Victory. But now
appears the savage form oftheWam
panoag chief, and in thunder tones
he cheers on his band. The dusky
warriors rally at the sound of his
thrilling voice, and surrounding the
brave pale-faced youths, they* deal
death on every side. With half
their uumber slain, the heroic little
band perceive now the hopelesness
of their situation and the certainty
of their fate. Not a nerve thrilled
with fear, not a heart faltered, but
calmy they determined to sell their
lives at fearful cost to the foe. One
by one they fall, a gory harvest to
their Mother Earth, and the crimson
life-blood, from their still beating
hearts, finds its way in many a rill to
the neighboring stream, and, mix
ing with its waters, christens it
"Bloody Brook." Early in the ac
tion their brave leader was shot down
while cheering on his men, and now,
falling faster as their numbers de
crease, a solitary few are all that are
lift to contend against the overwhelm
mg force ot the enemy. The fore
most of these, turning to encourage
his comrades, finds but seven re
maining of all that goodly company.
Finding that further resistence will
only add to the scalps of the victors,
they dashed through their enemy's
line and ran fcr the Deerfield river,
pursued by two hundred savage war*
ridrav Two only lived to reach it
banks, One attempted to swim the
stream, but sank pierced by a dozen
balls the other managed to slide si
lently into the water, where lie lay
screened by a fallen treejai.d the
rank grass, until the Indians gave
the search and returned to the
bloody field to secure the scalps of
the dead and dying. When all was
still, and during the darkness of the
night, he swam across the river and
stiff and cold, began his march for
Hadley, where he arrived on the
following day, the last and only
survivor of the Battle of Bloody
Brook.
Returning to the ensanguined field,
the savages commenced to strip the
much coveted trophies from the still
warm bodies of their victims. Not
satisfied with this, they severed the
heads from their trunks, in their in
fernal joy, and raising them upon
the points of poles, danced around
them in fiendish glee, while fresh
streams of blood added their purple
tint to the little brook, which for
ran red with the richest tide
that ever rivulet bore. Their savage
revelry was suddenly stopped, how
ever, by the appearance of a party
under command of Capt. Mosely,
who, having heard the firing, had
hastened to Lathrop's relief But
alas' too late. Fired with vengeance
at the sight of their mangled com
rades, they broke through the sa
foe, and charging back and
foith, cut down all within tange of
their shot. After several hours of
hard fighting, and Capt. Treat com
ing up with additional force, the
Indians were compelled to retreat
with a loss of ninety-six warriors.
Mosely lost only two killed. The
dead were collected and buried, and,
within a few years, a marble monu
ment has been erected over the spot
where they fought and fell.
History makes no mention of
Phillip as connected with this bat
tle. But from well authenticated
Indian tradition, as well as from
the fact that he is known to have
been absent from Mt. Hopehis
residenceat the time, it is almost
certain that he planned and led on
the attack.
Washington Letter.
Washington, D. Dec. 6, 1879.
After a session of four days the
Deraociatic Congiess had to take a le
cess until next week, and the probabili
ties are that on or about the 16th, an
adjournment will be had to the first or
second week inJanuary. The appioy na
tion Committees have not got to woik
yet and the managers do not seem anx
ious to push business. One excuse for
a long holiday recess peihaps is that
want to go to Philadelphia to
paiticipate in the reception to Geneial
Grant. It will be a grand affair. But
the tact is the Demociats are very wil
hng to postpone all legislation as long
as possible the hope of thereby
avoiding fatal legislative errors.
Financial legislation will be given
the go-by this session notwithstanding
the Piesidents recommendation. A
canvass of the Republican members
has been made, and the result is that
they aie almost unanimously against
any legislation that will disturb the
business boom or divide the party. We
piopose to go into the next campaign
without any diawback to success.
Speaking of this subject lemmds me
th.it the man who appears likely to he
Chairman ot the Republican National
Committee, William E Chandler has
arrived in town, and is announced that
he has come to stay. If he conducts
the campaign next year, it will be a
ted hot one.
A good deal of interest is taken in
the meeting of the Union League call
ed in Philadelphia next week, and
many leading Republicans will go from
heie to take pait or to confer with the
managers of that potent organization,
which will have an important place in
the work next year.
The Louisiana election show that
the Ku-Klux are still alive, and a veiy
impoitant part ot the Democratic or
ganization. It is probable that the
Brigadieis would have kept them quiet
a little longer for policies sake, had it
not been for their tear that the Repub
licans would carry the State. But the
exigency called them into service
again. They hanged several coloied
leaders in time to spread terror among
the voters, and thereby were enabled
to cany strong Republican districts
without votes. This is another point
for the Republicans to make a note of.
The Buchner bill, so called, which
requires the National banks in certain
States to keep one half their legal re
setve in gold and silver, is intended to
effect a distubution of the surplus
coin in the Treasury, and to i elease the
legal tender notes now held by the
banks.
The Brigadiers in the Senate are
much tioubled about the matter of
pationage, and are trying to devise
means to increase it. In a few months
they will be still more troubled.
HOWARD.
European Letter.
(Regular Correspondence.)
Vienna, Austria, Nov. 20th, 1879.
Several highly interesting facts
are to be gleaned from the army Bill
now under consideration by the
Austrian Legislative Body. In urg
ing this measure upon the accept
ance of the Chambers, the Govern
ment, although obviously oppressed
by a painful sense of the Dual Re
alm's inferiority, as far as its naof
tional defences are concerned, to the
other great military Powers of the
Continent, does not ask for any aug
mentation of the Imperial forces. It
simply solicits that the Army
strength and system of recruitment
adopted in 1868 for a period of ten
years should be steadfastly adhered
to for a further decade. The 1868
Army Bill was framed upon calcula
tions aiming at the achievement of
a certain reasonable proportion be
tween the military resources of the
Austriau Empire and those of her
colossal neighbors. Since the ter
mination of the Franco German
war, however, all the Great Powers
except Austria-Hungary have intro
duced important developement into
systems of national defence, leaving
the Hapsburg dominions far behind
them in the numbers of their stand
ing army and reserves. France set
an example in effecting fundamental
changes, which more than doubled
her land-forces. Her Army Bill,
passed in 1872, imposed upon French
men a twenty years* term of com
pulsory military service and the sup
ply of a yearly contingent 150,000
strong. Next year Italy followed
suit with a nieasdre imposing a nine
teen yean* term with an annual con
tingent of over 160,000 men. In
1874 Germany expanded her sjstem
to a twehe years' service term, year
ly contingent 150,000 men for the
standing army and 138,000 men for
the first reserve. Shortly afterwards
Russia raised her yearly contingent
to 278,000 men, and her service term
to twenty years of which fifteen are
to be spent in the active forces.
Austria alone altered nothing, keep
ing faithfully to her 1868 system,
which gave her, inclusive of Land
wehr and frontier regiments, a max
ium land-force of 1,053,000 men.
That force, though only fourth in
the list of Continental armies as re
garded its available strenght was
not perilously disproportionate to
the hosts of the other (ireat Powers,
as they existed in 1868. Germany's
army, all told, then consisted of 1.-
229,117 men that of France, of
I,350,0P0 Russia, reckoning her ir
regular troops could muster 1,467,-
000 and Italy's whole force, Guariia
Mobile included, amounted to 480,-
460 men. But as Minister von
ISzende carefully sets forth in the
document accompanying the Army
BUI now under discussion, the de
velopements that have supervened
within the last ten years in the mi
litary systems of Germany, France,
Russia, and Italy have completely
thrust Austria into the background,
leaving her maximum force weaker
by 200,000 men %an even that ot
Italy, the youngest and least numer
ously populated of the five leadiug
European military States. The
Russian army now boasts a fighting
strenght of over three millions ot
men, irrespective ot Landstuim.
The statistics ot ihe other great con
tinental armies are as follows:France
2,723,000 Germany, 2,004,300,
Italy, 2,024,200 and Austria-Hun
gary, 1,194,318. A simple addition
ot these figures will demostrate the
appalling tact that at the present
moment five of the principal Con
tinental States are in a position to
put nearly eleven millions ot trained
soldiers into the field. If to these
enormous hosts be added the stand
ing armies and reserves of European
Turkey, Spain, Belgium, Holland
Rouniania, Servia, and the Scandi,
navian kingdoms, a total will be at
tained the contemplation of which
may well horrify philantrophists and
fill Continental taxpayers' mind with
despair.
Something in Favor of the Jury Sys
tem.
ON some questions of aw the judges
are very apt to be right on others they
set one another right after awhile, al
though it takes a course of years and
costs something to do it But we ob
ject to having any man elected over us
to decide "facts" for us for a term of
years. We object to aboard of three
or five such men. Facts" have proved
the ruin and overthrow of more judges
than were ever slaughtered by hard
work or ill-ventilated court rooms.
Lord Bacon was great enough so long
as he confined himself to expounding
the law. It was not until he succumbed
to the temptations which beset him in
the shape of "facts" that he became
the meanest of mankind."
The jury gives a prompt decision.
It is a notorious fact that judges who
take causes home for decision rarely
bring them back until an interval of
weeks or even months has cooled the
controversy and perhaps robbed it of
its fruits. If every case were tried be
fore a jury and all questions of fact
eliminated on the spot, no judge could
ask along delay for the consideration
of the points submitted by counsel.
advantage of juries over
JsAnothen
udges for the trial of questions of fact
thati large cities, at leastthey
do not usually know either the parties
or their counsel. Something near to
strict impartiality may, therefore, oc
casionally be attained. Every young
lawyer has felt this when called upon
to cope with some older antagonist
long entrenched in the confidence and
esteem of the court, their friendship
cemented perhaps by social or family
or political ties. Such influences as
these are the most dangerous because
the most subtle and the most penetrat
ing. The best of judges are effected
by them without knowing it.
For downright common sense, un
sophisticated by too much learning,
and for that sort of shrewdness which
discerns the truth hidden in the bowels
of a complicated dispute, commend us
to a jury of twelve plain men of affairs
It is typical of our democratic institu
tions, typical and also part and parcel
of that larger jury before which every
man is being constantly tried for all of
his acta, and he may as well bring him
self to it first as last. They will judge
him in the end, anyhow. He may
humbug tribunal of "three to five
judges" for awhile into a false opin
ion of him, but it is the jury of his
peers who in the lastanalysis will make
or mar him. They will do it out of
court if not allowed to do it in court
and he had better have it done in an
orderly manner and according to law
whenever an occasion arises.J?. P.

The invention of that Superior and
Complete Sewing Machine (The Fami

most important eras in the history of
machinery, and when we consider its
great usefulness and extremely low
price (S25). it very difficult to con
ceive of any invention for domestic use
more or even equal importance to fa
milies. It has gieat capacity for work
beautiful, smooth, and quiet move
ment, rapid execution, certainty and
delightful ease of opeiation, that at
once commends it above all others.
The working parts are all steel, strong
and durable, and will last a life time
the bobbin hold 100 yards of thread
the stitch is the firmest of all the
stitches made, neat aod regular, and
can be regulated in a moment to sew
stitches from an inch in lenght-on
coarse material down to the finest, so
infinitesimal as to be hardly discern
able with the naked eye, and with a
rapidity rendering it impossible to
count them as fast as made it has
more attachments than any oth
er, and it does to perfection all kinds
of heavy, coarse, plain, fine, or fancy
needle-work with ease, and far less
labor than required onother machines.
It needs no commendation, the rapid
sales, increasing demand, and volun

the thousands of families who use
them, amply testify totheir undoubted
worth as a standard and reliable house
