ThoOilicrSldc.-Hv J,M.Ircncli,M.D. Under the abovo heading, a writer in the Jan., '87, number of the Magozinoof American History.diitlng hls commuol cation at Ottawa, Canada, charRea that certaln of tho lending raen nt Vermout, previous to its ndmlssion to the Union, were bo far wantlnc in loyalty to the cause of American liberty, thnt they en tered 'into an intrigue,' tho object of whicli waa a return to Hritisli alliancc, 'The word 'intrlgue,' ho furtlier con tinues 'is used because tho movcraent was 30 far from being an open one, tliat it wae, secretly conducted hy a few, without the knowledee and aeainst the desires of the many who wero interest ed.' He adds, 'If, since that time tlieee actors in the extraordinary morement have been idealized for loyalty, it shows perhaps, how charitably history has dealt with thera.' Uocumentary.oviuence is adduced in 8Upport of the charge. 'In the Cana- dian archives at Ottawa,' he says, 'are hundreds of old quill-written manu- scripts, yellowed with time, whieh af' ford ample proof of Vermont's narrow escape from becoming a British prov- ince,' He then proceeds to give quota tions from theee roanusoripts, ehowing that when Congress bad refused to rec ognize tho independence of Vermont. and had rejeoted her application to becomo a membcr of the sisterhood of Stateu, Ethan and Ira Allen, Governor Tliomas Chittenden and some few others, enter. ed into negotlations with Oeneral Ilal dimand, the governor of Canada and commander of the British furces on the northeast frontier, through the medium of Captain Justus Sherwood and others, Iooking to the establishment of Ver mont as a separate British province. Allen's statement of what he mightbo willine to do, is civen in Sherwood's own words; 'Should he have any pro- posals to make to General Ilaldimand heretofore, they wouid be nearly as fol. lows: IIo will expect to coramand liis own forces. Vermont must be a gov ernment separate from and independent of any other province in America: must choose their own ofEcers and civil rep resentativas, be entitled to all the privil eges of the other States offered by the King's Commissloners: and the New Hampshiro Orants as chnrtered hy Ben ning Wentworth, Governor of New Ilampshire.must be confirmed free from any patents or claims from New York or other provinces. If, however.Con gress should grant Vermont a seat in that Assembly as a separate State, then this negotlation to bo nt an end and to be kept secret on both sldes.' Various extracts from correepondence follow, all tending in the Bame line. The Tbe concluding paragraph of the article is as fol lows: "I must, however hriefly conclude the result of my examinatlon of theso old manuscripts. They show that subse- quent to those events Governor Chitten den carefully broached the subject of a return to British allegiance in a meet ing of tho Assembly, which had in the meantime been electcd, Ile was re buked for hls presumption in having any negotlations with General Ilaldi mand, and Jlessrs, Joncs, Wells.Knowl ton and Beadle lost their seats. So far as the authorities in Canada were con cerned, tbty came at last to recognize that Vermont was endcavoring to carry Its cause wlth Congress at the same time that its governor and tho Allens were keeping the door of Union open to Can ada. Nothlng ever came gf these nego tlations, although they extended over al period of two or three years; but the fact of their existence.so long concealed. is of interest to tho world, and forms a page of history wortb presem'ng." Ilaving thus consldered the cbarges from a Canadian point of view, let us now examlne the facts from a Vermont er's Btandpoint. It Ib now claimed that the ilocuments are other than genuine. It ts not denied that stich negotlations actually took place. On the other hand it la both admitted and aowed .that all these events and many others of like tenor. not only actually occurred, but are well known to every student of Ver mont history, and have been so for a hundred ycars. The musty records brlng to light no new facts of impor tance. The story in substance has been taught in her echonls for years, nnd every son of Vermont rccalls it witb prtde and not with shame, as a proof of the dlploaiacy and slaUsmadsbipas well as tho patriott'sm of her first governor, Tliomas Chittenden, and her trusted leaders, Ethan and Ira Allen. Says Zadock Thompson, in hls admir able 'History of Vermont,' 'From the commcncement of hostihties at Lexing ton, no people in America had espoused the cause of liberty and of their country with greater alacrlty, or suBtained it with more splrit and resolution, than the people of Vermont. Yet, after all their efforts and sacrlfices in tho com mon rause, they had the mortiHcation to flnd thenm'lves denied a just partici pation of the bleusings whlch thoy had labored to secure. Their claims to in dependence were not acknowledged by Congresj, the disracmberment of their terrltory and the nnnihilatioa of their severelgnty were threatened by the in- trigues and unjust claims of tho neigh boring statcs, and, to crown the whole, they were now abandoned by the power which ought to protect them, and leftto contend single handed wlth thocommon enemy. But notwithstanding Iheir attach mcnt to the cause of their country, the people of Vermont could not fail to per ceive that every step which theytookto support it, only rendered their own con- ditiun more hopelcss. They could hardly wieh to leud thclr aid for tho purpose of bringing the strugglo with a foreign enemy to a Buccessfultermination,when they perceived that by such an event, they should be subjected to the domina tion of a more detestible enemy at honic, In this Blato of things. Vermont wisely consulted lur own safety: and by the negotiatlon with the enemy in Canada, in which she now cngaged, she was so fortunate as to secure it," He then gives extracts from two let ters written by Colonel Beverly Robin son, nn ofllcer in His Majesty's service, to Ethan Allen, ono dated March 30,1780 and the other February 2, 1781,bothcon taining proposals for a relurn of Ver mont to her allegeglance to Great Brit lan. No answcr was returned by Allen to either of the6e lettcrs. On the cqp- trary, by the advice of Chittenden ana other friends, they wero enclosed In letter to Congress, informlng them of all thocircumstances. He then proceeded to justify tho claim of Vermont to inde dendence, and declared his own determ ination to do eyerything in his power to cstablish it. "I ani confident," said he, "that Con' gress will not dlsputo my sincere at- tachment to the caueo of my country, tbouch I do not hesitate to say, I am fully crounded in my opinion, that Ver mont has an indubitable right to agree on terms of a cessation of bostllities with Great Britian, provided tbe United States persist'in rejecting her applica tion for an union with them. For Ver mont would be, of all people, most mis orable, were she obliged lo defend the independence of the United States, and they be, at the 6ame time, at full liberty to overturn and ruin tho independence of Vermont." The reasons for the diplomatic policy pursued by the leaders of Vermont, Bre still more evident when we remember that a British arniy of tenthousandmen was thus kept idlo on her defenceless northern frontier, and that it was only by this policy that the Stato was saved from an invasion which it was powerless to repel, and whicli would have devas tated not only Vermont, but also the whole of New England Washington be Ing employcd at tho south and thus havo cruslied tho hopes of freidom. Such were ftho circumstances under which the6o negotiatlons wero carricd on: 'and whethcr correct or not,' eays Thompson, 'they always justified them selvcs on the ground of self-preserva-tlon. That these negotiations served not only to protect Vermonr, but tho United States from invasion by n powerful British army for a period of about three years, is undoubteds nnd it Is perhaps equally true that by uoncealing tho truo object of these negotlations from tbe people of the United Slates, New York was prevented from pressmg her claims at that period to the territory of Ver mont, ahd Congress from lcnding itaid to enforce those claims." Should any further proof be needed that these men of Vermont wero truo patriots, that in tho meaeurcs which they pursued they were actuated by a Iove of the causo of American independ ence, and that none of them ever seri ously entertained the idca of a union with Great Britian, it may be found in hundreds of other "old quill written manuscripts" preserved in the archives of Vermont at Montpelier, and of wbich the following, which is tho commission furnished to Allen on his first vislt to Quebec, may ho taken as a saraple: "State of Vermont, June, 1781. "Whereas Col.Ira Allen has been wlth a Flag to tho Province of Quebeck for tho purposo of settling a carlel or Ex chango of Prisoners, and has used his best Policy by Feigning or Endeavi ring to make them believo tbat the State of Vermont had a dtsire to Negotiate a Treaty of Peace with Bntain tliereby to prevent their Immediate Invasion or Incursion tipon the Frontiers of this State were aro of the opinion that the critical circamstances this Stato is in, being out of union with the United States, and Ihereby unahle to mako that Vigorous Defence we could wish for think It to be a necessary Political man muver to savo tho Frontiers of this Stato.

I hold heali in my hand, said Brother Uardner as the meeting opened, a writ ten request from de mcmbers of Branch Lodge No. 84, located at Dalton,Ga.,fur decishuns on do follerln' p'ints: 1, Kin a member ob de club who don cheats another in a hoes trade bo bounced under any rule? 2. What should we do wid a member who is guilty of lyin', and breedin' dis- cord ? 3. How fur ar' we bound to trust brother member ? As to No. 1, I answer dat no rule has yit bin framed, nor Isn't likely to be, De right of one man to beat another fel ler in a hoBS trade has been recognized all ober de world, in church, lodgr, and society, eber pince de world stood.

If ho did it would probably be fur de purpus of concealin' a bad caeeof poll evil or blindncss. As to queshun No. 2, when we find member who is guilty of tboso offences we ginerally bounce him, but sich a eourse ar' not obligatory. Vcry few so cietiesor lodges follow disrule.

Tho chalrman of the committee on as tronomy reported adversely on tho caso of Mrs. Lord John Whyto of Grcnda, Miss., who iippealed to tho club to lend her $150 with which to erect a monu ment over her deceased husband's grave.

IDetroit Free Press. iNTEanyenANCE in ,tuis sauce-pan, A committee of the Woman's Ciirls- tian Tempersnce Union of Connecticut having sent a letter to Miss Parloa, the great cooklng authority, protesting against the U8n of alcoholio liquois in sauces and jellies, ctc. Miss Parloa eaid to her cooking clusa that she had re- ceived similar letters in other cities, and while she believed the ladies hnd Ihe best intentions, eho tliought they accus- ed her wrungfully. 'The letter ohjects to the generous use of wine and brandy, said Mis Parloa, while in all my recipes only small quantities ofalcoholicliquors are used. 1 am a temperance woman, and do not know the taste of liquors, except by the flavor given in cooking. My physicians will testify that I will not oven use alcoholic stimulantswben Inm sick. If I understand chemistry the al coliol is climlnated from tho wine and brandy in cooking whenboiled in sauces and other dishes. A companson of my cook book with other cook books will show that I have reduced the general rules in the use of liquor, and leave it to the judgment of the housewivcs as to the quantity used in treir cooking. I do believe, hewever, that brandy and wine, In moderato quantities, add great ly to the flavor of many dishes. Miss Parloa's remarks were heartily applauded. To fully understand Miss Parloa's position, tlm following is taken from her latest publication, tbeKitchen Companion: In some families witics are consldered indispensible nt luncheon, whereas in others they aro used only at dlnners, It will be a great gaiq for humanity when wine is never set on a lady's table. Tho homes where it is not served may not be so numerous as those where it is, yet no ono need hesitate in tho least to plan for a company lunclieon, dinner or sup per, at which wtno sliall nnve no place.

Tho ways of tho housekeeper aro in- decd made smooth for her in China, in deed so smooth that, unless shehaschil dren tocare for, her time often hangs very heavily upon her hands. Tbe in- tenor manaegment and care of the hoU80 is entirely intrusted to the majnr domo, or butler, called tho 'Kwan Su,' or chief of the bottles. But more tre quently he Is slmply called 'boy.' Bclls not being much ueed in China, you of ten hear tho cry of 'Bhoooyl' coming from the neighboring houees. Do not be alarmed. It is probably only mad ame calling for her sedan chair, or the master who wants a glass of brandy nnd soda, tho standnrd drink of foreigners all over the East. In taking a house in China tbe first thing is to get a good boy, the second.is to have him 'secured.' Tbe securing consisls in getting some reputablo or wealtby Chlnaman to agree that if the boy runsaway with anything, he will either produce him. or pay tho amount of the loss. The eerrauts in the East are all of tho male sex, and women are never employed about a house except whero there are children, or where a lady has an nmah as her personal attend ant, The atnah's duties lie in keeplng her mietress' room iu order.dresslng her hair, in ehort, performing the duties of lady's maid, nnd, if there are young children, in Iooking after thera, In most cascs thero is one nmali to cach child.

Physician! prescribe less me.lcino now than used to be the custom in form er days, and possibly would givo still fewer doses, if it were not for the preju- dices of their patients, who feel that nothihg ls being done for th ir cure un less they have eomething to lake, The truth is that often pure air, resl.and ab- senco from food for a time is all that is needed to give relief, and the conscien tious doctor hesitates to order drugs which he knows unnecessary. If a per son who is suffering from ferer is ehtit up in an unventilated room, brealhing the same air over and over ogalu, cov ered wlth twice as many bed clothes as are required, for fear he ralght tako cold, and given wbatever food hocan be persuaded to oat, the fever is not llkcty toabate. Yot If when tho physician came ho wero to say 'open the window, tako oft all the blankets but one, give him n cool sponge bath every three hours, and lot hi'ii have nothlng but milk, crackcd ico and cold water.' and then go away without prrscrihing furtli er, the friends of the eufferer would ehake thclr heads and sigli to one anoth- er, ' we must oenu lor some one piso m once. How can he get well without medicine?' WhereaB the doctor would havo done much more to promoto the recovery of his patient than if he had left him in t e unsanltary condltlon In which he found him and prescribed quinine and aconilead libitum. Medi cine is not omnipilent; it cannot tako the place of fresh air, pure waler and suitablo diet, but it is exceedlngly use- ful in its own sphere and in the hands of a wise physician plays -an important part in the treatment of difeape. Too much cannot be said ngainst the evil practice of iudiscrirolnate dosing. Many pcoplo ruin their health bj taking some favorite nostrum every time they feel a little out of order, when If the raatter were left to nature it would possibly right itself. fSpringfleld, Mass., Good Housekeeping.

Wo were" passing through tho great doors on tho Knecland street side of tho Boston and Albany depot Joo and I Just nliead of Joe was a lady, and pass ing through just ahead of her was a large, sour-featured man, well dressed nnd eyidently well to do. These doors clo.io to with force enough lo knock a fellnw olT his feet. This gentleinan (or boor, we will call him) after having had tho door held aj ir by Ihe one who had gone through before him tbat he might pass with some degreo of comfort, let it slara in the lady's faco behlnd him, Joe sprang forward and assisted her to open it, nnd then remarked to me: If there's one thing that's contempli ble, it'a lo see. nccasionally.a confound ed ignoramus walk through Ihese doors nnd pay no attentlon wbatever to those that follow him, I've noticed it a dozen times. And the fellow beliintl hlm gets knocked clear off his feet, Confound them, those are the kind of fellows I'd like to serve a warrant on. Calm your8clf,my dear Joe- don'tyou recognize human natur' when you see it? Yes; I know it's human nature; but tnere aro somo thinga lliat l think aro too mean even fnr human naluro to do. You aro quito right. And further, eaid Joe, I've often thought that just bucIi thinga as that are what mako human nature just what it is. It is just such thlngs that mako hu man nature selllsh. You are getting a little hard on us.old fellow. No I ain't eilher. It's true, every word of it. Did it ever occur to you that children very young ones.I mean, laughing, are nalurally truthful, gener ous, honesl? I don't believe, naturally, wo are 80 closely akin to tho 'hnstly herd' as Bome people try to make out, I believo it's largely due lo education. I believe the natur il natural.mind ten dency of human nature is much like thnt of children, to be truthful, hone.'t. It is these-llttle cnntemptible tricks oc currlng around us every hour In the day which mould human nature. I more'n half believe it. It'a true; why shouldn't yer! You see now, take a country fellow he is trust worthy, honcst green. I had to laugh at the latter it was too true. Pll admit he's green; but at the mme time I understand a farmer and a deacon are two of the hardest men in world to trade horses with. Joo was in no humor to laugh. That may be: but because they are emart enough to know a horse when they see one, though. P'raps eo. I know it, By thls time we hnd got up opposito Frecman's Bank and had to cross Sura mer street, which is usually crowdcd with drays, hacks nnd eo forth. We were separated for n few minutes, when we came together again Joe continued : There's another thlng that shows what the assoclatlon with others does lake a boy just out of schoot and let him knock around awhile with people a trifle older than he is, and he is as different in a year or two as a mittertiy is from n grub. Of course; anybody will tr-ll you that. Exaclly;but what's the cause? Now, you take my boy, (the reader may like to know that the boy in questlnn woighs sometbing over two hundred pounds, and is as good natured as he is eniarl). he ain't anything moro like what he was a couple years ago than nothlng. It didn't take but a precious little while to get the foolishness knocked out of hlm. Ilerelgota thought myself some what on a tangent 111 admit. Yes; wo see Iheso things every day, and wo socn begin to mietrust people. There are very few peoplo wo meet lo whom wo can say what we think. We all of us say foollsh thinga. I've oflen had the cxperienco of saylng what I thought to be good Ihlngs to pcoplo at dilTerent times, snd by'n by those same things came up to me in a crnwd, but they did not scem so good then, and they all laught at me. Sure enough, and Joe laughed to. Now I have nn examplein mlndof the result of Ihis. Take the same caso of n boy jiinl from echool. Ile things he knows it all (of couree ho does he's through school and why not?). Perhaps ho says so, not in eo many words, of course, but impliedly; that is to say, ho thinks he has thought out eomething ne(we all havo to think out everythlng for ourselves, you know), he lays tho law doun about it; It turns out to be fls old os Ihe liills to his hearers (they thought out the samn thlng in tho vame way long ago); they l.iugh at him (same ai Ihey got laughed at some years ince), nnd fnr the lirst limo he freli n little, doulilfiil of his talent". A few moro ex pprieiiCPD like Ihis and ho begins to douht lus own sanily. We eeu such boys (siiul sometliues nitn when Ihey nre blest wlth a largerspring,of youth) every day. They speak with a blush.laugh at them "Did n't Know 't was Loaded" May do for a stupld boy's excuse ; but what can be said for the parent who sees hls child langulshlng dally and falls to recognize the want of a tonlo and blood-puriflor?

Tho clerk sorled over a packago wilh tbe negligent ntlention that cona-s of practice then flipped one a very small one on the counter. The travelling man took it with n cu rkus smile that twisled his pleasant Iooking face into 3 mafk of joyful ex ptctancy. He emlleil more as he read it. Then obliviom of other travellers who justled him, he laid it tenderly ti hls lips and iictually kissed il. A leud guff-tw starlled him. Now, look here, old fellow,said n loud voIcp, tbat won't do you know. Too spouiiey for anything. Confess now, your wife didn't write that letter. No, she didn't. said the travelling man with an amuzi'd look.as if he would like to chungo the subject. That letter is from my best girl. The admissiun was sounexpccted that the trio of friends who had caught him said no more until after they had enten a dinner, and were seaied m a chum's room. Then they began to bndger him. 'It's no use; you've got to read it to us, Dick, eaid one of them; we want to know all about your best girl. So you shall, eaid Dick, with great coolner-B; I will givo you the letter and you can read it yourselves. Thero it is, and ho left it open on the tablo, I guees not.

The lady would hardly care to have her letter read hy ihis crowd, and he looked repruachfully at his friends. But I insist upon It, was the nnswer; there's nothing lo be ashamed of ex cept the epelling; that's a little ehaky, I'll admit, but she won't care in the least. Read it, Hardy, and judge for yourself. Thus agreed.Hardy took up tho letter, shainefacedly enough, and read It, 'lhero were only a few words. First he laughed then ewallowed euspiciously. and hs he llnished it, threw it upon the table again, and rubbed his hand acroes hls eyes as if troubled with dimneesof rision, Pshaw! he eaid, if I had a Iove letter like, and then was silent. Fair play, cried one of Ihe others.with nn uneasy laugh. I'll read It to you, boys, said their friend, eceing they made no move lo take it, and I think you'll agreo with me that it's a model letter. And this is what He read : My own dear Pa Pa I sa my Pltairs every nito an Wen I kis yure Piclthure I ASK pod to bless you good bi Pa Pa your best gurl. DOLLY.
