Hartford, August 6.—While at Fen wick, obtaining a line horse and buggy from the hotel stables, we took a delight ful ride along the shore of the sound it cool, almost cold, at Norfolk abounding in beautiful views until we reached the eastern edge of day brook, passing on, the way some of the most beau tiful farms we ever saw, pastures studded with magnificent cattle, grain crops cut and being lout in enormous quantities.

My mother-in-law sulisc- : mwsntly found this world too narrow for the range of her telescopic vision and took 1 her flight to astronomical regions, nnd I have finally convinced my wife that she occupies the first and only place in my heart: but 1 shall never forget that sum - - i mer. 1 “Sir.

What has this story to do with the subject of the evening- hot summers?” “Well," said Pillshurv, “Ifthat wasn’t a hot summer for me 1 don’t know any thing.” “Tile chair,” said the president, with a retrospective sigh, “rules tint the story is within the limits of the subject.” The members did not appeal from the d. etsion. The streets over two hundred feet wide are mcadamized for perhaps twenty feet wide, while the balance is grass kept eloso cut, with very large elm trees meeting arches overhead. Many of the houses are stream runs from the mountain through the town, and has such a fail that num bers of dams have been erected at dis tances of two and three hundred yards, each a Hording ample power to turn a large mill, thus falsifying the words of the song, | "The water t! at lias passed the mill.

From Saybrook, we come to THE POINTS, ,i collection of periiaps a dozen houses on the site of the ancient Saybrook. Here is the terminus of the Connecticut River railroad, aud consequently its shops give an appearance of life and business. .1 lew shops and fishing market comprise the town. Crossing the “ cave” on an excel lent open bridge a half mile long we reach the peninsular, Fenwick, where stands the summer hotel and the cottages of the wealthier people w no come to spend their summers. For the Iasi three years a record of the thermometer taken morning, noon and night shows generally from sixty-six degrees to seventy-six degrees. In three years only one or two times has it reached eighty degrees. THE SAILING FACILITIES are good. For fifty cents an hour one can hire a large boat with man to sail and care Tor it- There can be no more pleasant and .healthful employment than to cruise along the sound, free from care aud danger, in haling the pure salt air. Fishing is pretty wish for. SOMETHING OF HOT SUMMERS.

Having finished our visit,we take the CARS FOR HARTFORD and dash along up the valley of the Con necticut at thirty milesan hour, at the cost of two cents a mile. Towns are thickly strewn along the banks of this river, but a scarcity of names must have prevailed at their naming, judging from the repetition —ad Haddan, Fast Haddan, West Haddan, South Haddan, North haddan, Middle Haddan, Old Haddan, and New Haddan. At Middletown we see the state asylum for the insane, a magnificent institution, and at Weathersford the state prison, where are confined criminals at hard labor for all crimes less than murder, but for that offense the clergy generally manage to swing them directly into heaven to pass . . _ an eternity of happiness among the | whoie-world-go-round sort of a way, and prophets, saints and martyrs. Forty years heaving sighs. One day my wife saw her ago quite a fleet ot brigs and schooners and said to me: ‘‘Has any gentleman anything to say about hot summers?” asked‘tile president. “1 shouldn't wonder,” said Harry i’ills- bury, slowly rising and brushing his blonde bang oil' his ioreheud, “if I could toll about one of tile hottest days ever known.” “Well, we want to hear about hot sum mers,” suggested the president. “This day was tiie beginning of a very hot summer,” said Pillsbury. “1 think we can admit it then. Proceed, Mr. Pillsbury.” “In order to understand this story you must know that my wife is in the habit of calling me Pill for short. Her mother, who is a very superior sort of a woman—that is, superior to such commonplace things as taking care of a house and navi gating bailies, but who is perf ectly at home in an Indian mission meeting or a Chinese —*i 1 i! — and abet8 her in this poetic fa miliarity. My wife says she calls me Pill because I’m sugar- coated, and a sure cure for all the ills inci dent to humanity: but my mother-in-law says she calls me Pill because I’m hard to take, and a whole box of such as I am would cost only a quarter. Well, In the summer that I am talking of we had a good-looking servant girl, and she was stage struck. If you ever have a stage struck servant girl I would advise you to boycott her on the spot. Well, tiiis girl used to imagine that she was Pauline and Julia, and Romeo and Juliet and several other moss-covered antiquities of the tragic drama all at once. I don’t know what I had ever done to the blamed girl, because I never spoke to her at all, but she got struck not only on the stage, but on me. Well, she was always gazing at me in a sort of love-thatrmakes-the kept up an extensive trade witn the WeBt j lnuies. Horses from Vermont and Canada ; were brought to Hartford, aud thence shipped down.the river with other yankee products of industry, and in return brought back cargoes of molasses and rum for the delectation of the deacons and the farm laborers. But steam has cnauged all that, while with increasing wealth the Widow Cliquot has taken the place of the Cuban darjsey in furnishing after-dinner drink. The writer remembers the first trip he ever made DOWN THE CONNECTICUT, instead of the palatial steamers, with two-story tiers of state-rooms, the passen gers were all stowed away at night in the and said to me: “ ‘Pill, what makes Laura look at you like that?’ “ ‘I don’t know, my dear,’ I answered, ‘but I fear that Laura has been plucking the young mince pie ere it is ripe.’ “This seemed to satisfy my wife for a time. But one day she came into the par lor just as I was going out of it. Laura, who was dusting the furniture, stared after me and murmured: “ ‘Perdition catch my soul but I do love thee.’ “ ‘What’s that?’ cried my wife. “ ‘That’s a line from the play I saw last night,’ replied Laura. “I don’t think my wife was quite satis fied that time, but she didn’t say anything. hold in berths, dark, hot, uuveutilated and The next day that confounded girl got one abounding in foul smells.

Then she stood off and played a leaves Hartford in the morning, touching 1 love scene with it. She spouted whole awhile at New London, where the yacht fleet rendezvous, then across the sound to Sag Harbor, an old whailing town inter esting to examine. There one can sleep comfortably in the stateroom of the Sun shine, and' the next day returning reach Hartford at 6 p. ni. As in former letters we wrote up Hartford pretty fully, we will not annoy your readers with repeti tion, but will simply say that aside from pages of the blamedest rubbish you ever heard in your life. Then she’d speak for the imaginary lover. “ ‘Do you, then, love me?’ “ ‘I do, light of my immortal soul.’ “Then she’d give a little squeak, like a cat that had untimely met a limited ex press bootblack, and would throw herself against the bedpost and pull the arms of the coat around her.

My dear mother-in- through the law called my wife and showed her what old town OF WEATIIERFIELD, ! Laura had been doing. Then they decided which shows visible marks of progress and that Laura was too talented for the hum- many new and beautiful residences adorn ble sphere in which she was then confined, its streets, which are beautiful of them- I s o they invited her to go out into the wide selves, wide and grass-lined with very old ! world and become a second edition of elms and horse-chestnuts of enormous size.

Thu Congre-, to rent a tneatre for hot for a summer gational church was built by subscriptions snap. So she -egged to be j * ^ >. by subscriptions of onions, and in commemoration the spire is crowned with an onion instead of the customary ball. We noticed that the pop ular hotef’kept by the state is so well pat ronized that u is being greatly enlarged. MRS. COLT’S BEAUTIFUL PLACE becomes more and more elegant every year. Statuary adorns the extensive grounds, elegant and rare trees embelish the lawns, which, surrounded by a light out high wire netting, alfords line grazing lor a herd of graceful deer and fawns. In a former letter I described her immense hot houses filled with tropical fruits. > erily, verily, one might be pardoned for a little violation of the tenth command- blent in looking at such surroundings. Pardon or not, most people break it. However, if some must have while others want, it is fortunate that such as Mrs. Colt have. For no deserving ease of need goes unassisted if brougut to her knowledge, and none who know her can have any fears •or her eternal future, especially as tiie Rook says nothing about “rich” women and “camels passing through tiie eye of a deedle.” If any of your readers will look at the map of Connecticut they will see nestled away up in the mountains, ill the the northwest part of the state, the LITTLE TOWN OF NORFOLK. Being nearly 1500 feet elevation, it has be come a favorite summer resort. A delight- bu ride by rail of two hours, through a mountainous country of surpassing beauty and fertility, brought us there. Numerous towns, some of five and six thousand in habitants, are passed. The fields are large and promised faithfully that she would not act any more. My mother-in-law was too generous to accept the sacrifice and 1 wanted to insist on her going forth to put I tlie world at her feet, but m.v wife was I willing to lei her stay, and so, in the end, ' she staid. “I was sorr.v that Laura had not gone forth, for 1 felt certain that ail was not : well. And it was not. Laura's talents had to have an outlet, so she took to writing poetry. That was all very well as long as no one knew it. hut one day sill* dropped a verse or two on the ii nor in my roonij.and i my ever careful mother-in-law was right oil hand. This is what she read: “ 'I am quite young and ah \ Fiui Mill' (Ini's. This world is full of disappointments. “Mamma," cried a five-yeur-olil girl, “l started to make my doll u bonnet, audit lias come out a pair of punts.” Old Lady ito small boy Aren’t you afraid of catching cold, little boy, going about iu vour bare feet?

She was strolling around the neighborhood on a tour of observation when she came across a colored man sit ting on a door-step. She stood with her finger in her mouth, looking at him. Fi nally she said: “You're a colored man. ain’t you?" “You’re very polite, miss,’’ he said. “Yes, I am a colored mail.” “Oil, yes. I’m very polite. 1 cal) every nigger I see a colored man.” 1 am coming by-and-by; you will hear my plaintive cry in accents mild and gen tle as a lamb. I’m not coming on a frolic, but to give small boys the colic; sing hey the small green apple that i am! The children at Fort L. were one day holding forth upon the belongings of their respective mammas. “My mamma's got I a beautiful silk dress,” etc. The climax was reached when one of the number ex claimed: “Well, anyhow, mine’s got the redheadedest baby iii the post.” Four-year-old Belle had been watching Tom, the cat, squeeze through a very small hole under the house. “Oh, mam ma,” she said, “you ought to have seen Tom! He just mashed and went under!” One summer evening after Harry and his little sister Helen had been put to lied a severe thunder-storm came up. Their cribs stood side by side, mid their mother, in the next room, heard them as they sat up in bed and talked, in low voices, about the thunder and lightning. They told eaeli other their fears. They were afraid lightning would strike them. They Wondered whether they would be killed right off and whether the house would be burned up. They trembled afresh at each peal. But tired nature could not hold on as long as the storm. Harry became very sleepy, and at last with renewed cheerfulness in his voice, he said, as he laid his head on the pillow: “Well, I’m going to trust in God.” Little Helen sat a minute longer think ing it over, aud then laid her own little head down, saying, “Well, I dess I will, too!” And they both went to Bleep without more words. “What queer notions children get into their heads,” said a suburbanite last even ing. “This morning my flve-yeur-old girl . attended Sunday school for the first time, | and she came home full of tiie idea that ; she must carry some pennies with her next Sunday. “ ‘No more pennies for candy, papa,’ she exclaimed: ‘they must all be saved for the Sunday school.’ ‘“And what do they do with the pennies at Sunday school?’ “ ‘Oh, they send them up to God.’ “ ‘And what does God do with them?’ “ ‘Oh,’ she said after a moment’s hesita tion, ‘he throws them up again to see the little children scramble for them. That’s the way he has fun.’ ” LEMON ELIXIR. A Prominent Farmer Writes. Robert Station, Jones County, Ga., June 20th, 1884.—By the recommendation of Rev. C. C.

Our object is to establish the one price system, not ten prices.
