Green Mountain Stale.
[From the Century Magazine.]
Wool-growing became tlie leading in
dustry of the Green Mountain State.
Almost every Vermont farmer was a
shepherd, and had liis half hundred or
hundreds or thousands of grade sheep
or full bloods dotting the ferny pastures
of the b;'il country or the broad levels of
the f’uamplain valley, rank with English
grosses. From old Fort Dnmmer to the
Canada line one oonld hardly get^beyond
the sound of the sheep’s bleat unless he
took to the great woods, and even there
lie was likely enough to hoar the inter
mittent jingle of a sheep bell chiming
with the songs of the hermit and wood
thrushes, or to meet a flock driven clat
tering over the pebbles of a mountain
road; for a mid-wood settler had his lit
tle herd of Bheop, to which he gave in
summer the freedom of tho woods, and
whie’u took—alas for tho owner’s crops—
the freedom of tho meadow and grain
patches, and were sheltered from the
chill of winter nights in a frame barn
bigger than their master’s log-house.
In June, when tho May-yeaned lamlw
were skipping in the sunshine that had
warmed tho pools and streams till the
bull-frogs had their voioes in tune, the
sheep were gathered from the pastures
and driven over the dusty roads to the
liens beside the pools on the tapped
null-flumes and washed amid a pother of
of rushing waters, shouts of laughter of
of men and boys, and discordant, plain
till bleats of parted ewes and lambs.
A fortnight nr bo later came the groat
event of the shepherd’s year, the shear
ing, for which great preparation was
mode within house and barn. The best
the fam afforded must be provided for
tho furnishing of tho table; for tho
shearers were not ordinary farm labor
er!, b it mostly farmers and farmers’
sons, and as well to do as their employ
er, wuo was likely enough to shear, in
his t lrn, for them. Whoever possessed
tho ikill of shearing a sheep thought it
not beneath him to ply his well-paid
handicraft in all the country round. For
theau the fatted calf was killed and the
green peas and strawlierries were picked.
Tho burn floor and its overhanging
'jcaffolds woro carefully swept, the
stables were littered with clean straw,
the wool-bench was set up, and the reel
full of twine wits made ready in its place.
Those were merry days in the old gray
barns that were not too line to have
swallows’ holes in their gables, moss on
their shingles, and a fringe of hemp,
mayweed, and smartweed about their
jaggod underpinning. There was jest
ing and tho telling of merry tales from
morning till night, and bursts of laugh
ter that scared tho swallows out of tho
cohwobbed roof-peak and the sitting hen
from her nest in the left-over hay-mow.
Neighbors colled to get a taste of the
fun and the cider, to see how
the flock "evridged” and to engage
hands for their own shoaring. At noon
ing, after the grand dinner, while the
older men napped on tho floor, wool-
beuoh or scoffold, with their liends pil
lowed on soft places, the young follows
had trials of strength at “pulliug stick”
or lifting "stiff legs.” The skillful
wool-tyer was rarer than the skillful
shearer, and in much demand iu his own
and neighboring townships. Ho tiod
the fleeces quiokly and compactly, show
ing the best on the outside, but with no
clod of dirty locks in the middle; for in
those days wool had its place and dirt
its plucc, but the fleece was not their
common place. The catcher was an
humble but not unimportant memlier of
the force. He must be alert and with a
sheep ready for each shearer as wonted,
aud was never to take up a sheep by tho
wool, but with his left arm underneath,
just behind the fore legs, and his right
hand grasping a hind leg. And there
was the boy to pick np looks, discarding
the dirty ones, which were swept out
doors. Ono’s back aches as he remem-
ers this unpleasant duty of his boy
hood, when he was scoffed by shearers
and scolded by the wool tyer, and often
had tho added labor of oarrying the
wool to its storage. Fourteen fleeces
tied up iu a blanket was tho load, which,
if they had been of nowadays weight,
would have burdened a strong man; but
n five-pound fleece was a heavy one
then. I liavi nevor been present at one
of tho modern public shearings, which
comes before the swallows do, while
winter is still skirmishing with spring,
and are celebrated in the looul papers;
but I doubt if they are such hearty and
enjoyable seasons as the old-fashioned
shearings were.
The wool-buyers scoured the country
at or after shearing time, and drove their
bargains with the farmers. The small
lots of wool were hauled in bulk to some
central point of shipment, while the
larger clips were sacked on tho grower’s
premises. The sack was suspended
through a hole of its own diameter in an
upper floor and a few fleeces were thrown
in, when the packer lowered himself into
it and placed and trod the wool as it was
passed to him till he had trod his way to
the top. Then the sacks were lowered,
sewed, weighed, marked, and went their
way to market.
The "tag-locks” and pulled wool were
mostly worked up in the neighboring
-run,11 factories into stocking-yarn, flan
uelj and fyl/wketa for the farmer’s use,

A VERT SAD STORY.'

Ml Deotrep Mea.
John B. Gough tella the following:
"A minister of the guepel told me oi o
of the most thrilling incidents I have
heard in my life. A member of his con
gregation came home for the first time
iu his life intoxicated, and hie boy met
him upon tho doorstep, clapping Ms
hands and exclaiming, ’Papa has oouie
home I’ He seized the boy by the
shonlder, swung him around, stagg od
and fell in the hall. That minister suid
to mo, •[ spent the nighr in tbut house.
I wont out, bared my brow that the
night air might fall upon it and oool it
I walked np and down the hill. There
was the child, dead I there was his wife
in strong convulsions, and he asleep.’
A man abont thirty yean of age asleep,
with a dead child in the house, having
a mark upon his temple where the cor
ner of the marble etepe had come in
contact with the head as he swung him
around, and a wile upon the bring of the
grave I ’Mr. Gough,’ said my friend,
’I cursed the drink. He had told me
that I mast remain until be awoke, and
I did.’ When be awoke he passed hit
hand over his face and exclaimed, ’What
is tho matter? whore am I? where is my
boy?’ ’Yon cannot see him.’ ’Stand
ont of my way, I will see my boy.’ To
prevent confusion I took him to the
ohild’s bed, and aa I tamed down the
tho sheet and showed him the corpse he
nttered a wild shriek, ’Ah, my child 1’
That minister said farther to me. ’One
year after that he was brought from the
lnnatio asylum to lie besido his wife iu
the grave, and I attended his funeral.’
The minister of the gospel who told me
that fact is to-day a drunken hostler in
a stable in Boston. Now, tell me what
rum will not do. It will debase, de
grade, imbrate and damn everything
that is noble, bright, glorious and God
like in a human being. There is noth

An Iceberg Panorama.
WIT AND WISDOM.
The oflloeis of the steamship Abys
sinia, from En rope, report a fine display
of icebergs. Early on the morning of
Maroh 2d, while it was yet dark, the
drop in the temperature showed that Ice
bergs were in the neighborhood. Extra
men were placed on watch and the speed
of the steamer reduoed. Before daylight
the ioe came in sight, and dnring the
entire day the passengers were treated
to a magnificent ioe panorama. The sun
was bright and clear from an unclouded
sky, and shone on the sides of the mas
sive bergs with flno effect. The course
of the ship lay to the south of the ioe
mountains, and the reflection of the sun’s 1 would have to be cautious.

Abont the ship were many broken frag
ments of ice, small in comparison with
the main bergs from which they had
broken, but big enough in themselves
to form floating islands, over whioh the
steamship was carefully guided.
At, one time on the forenoon on the 2d
a careful count showed as many as sev
enty icebergs within sight. They were
of oVery conceivable shape, and on some
were great peaks rising far above the
m istheads of the steamer. A great
crowd of gulls and sea birds ot various
S' »rts were flying from crag to crag of
t ae icy islands, and their cries and calls
x>uld be distinctly heard. Great swashes
sould be heard now and then, as some
of the bergs, growing top heavy from
the melting of the subaqueous portions,
suddenly turned over and rearranged its
centre of gravity. In doing this it
would perhaps strike another berg, and
fragments of ioe hundreds of tons in
weight were broken off and floated away
among the mass of frozen debris sur
rounding the main cluster of bergs.
These sounds were kept up during the
night of the 2d, but on the 8d the vessel

flesh and the painful effects of a long ill

ance by allowing nature to have her
way. I hope that he will recover his
health. Not long ago the moat prom

disease, I caUed iu my son in Lewiston, who
iB in the drup business, and after consulting
with him as to my case, he advised me to use
Hunt’s Remedy, as he knew of so many suc
cessful cure* that it had made in Lewiston
and vie nity. 1 at once commenced uang it,
e ,nd began to improve. I had less pain in my
back and side*, my water was passed natu-
rallv with lem oolor and no pain, and after
using several bottle* found that my pains
were aU gone and the weakness of the kidneys
and bladder were cured, and I have no trouble
with thorn now, and can attend to my dubi*
nets; and for one of my years I am enjoying
good health, and thanks to Hunt ■ Remedy
for it, and I consider ita duty and pleasure to
recommend so good a medicine as Hunt’.
Remedy, and I have taken pain* to recom
mend it to others in this vicinity.
