Bceelier at a Horse Show. , Iii
At the national llor-o Show, at Spting- j
field, Mass., ltev. Henry Ward Ueccher ho : jN
ing present, was called on for a speech, llo , tir
te.-potided. We give here a substance of!
his remarks, as made up by tho reporter of
the 1 t<istiill -Tiiiirnnl*
? ^ I
"lie commenced by gncting his hearers i ro,
upon their presence ait. such an occasion as ! co
this. It was proper thai here on old 1'iui- j |ol
tail ground such a scene as this should be i rj?
witnessed. It showed that a change was ' j/,
coming over the public sentiment whi h
liad too long restrained a healthy public
want of recreation. The old Puritan who, pj,
it had been supposed, had a face cast in ju
granite, nud a heart but little softer, had cu
none ol these things it is true, hut it was | ful
from no distaste of proper amusement, lie Clj
himself was a Puritan, and the son of a |01
Puritan, but be loved pictures, lie hived 0?,
flowers and music, and was no enemy to er(
.amusement. The old Puritans had some Ull
thing else to do besides inaugurate parks : c;i|
and pleasure grounds?they iiad their fieo- .,|;
dolu to inaugurate, their schools to eslab- cU
lish, their goveiumeut to erect, and all this t||(
left but little timo for recreation. They had oltaste
and love for proper pleasure, but little Ul)
time left from their sterner duties to enjoy j,.,
them. (Applause.) I mi
"We, however, were enjoying the fruits ;l;s
of their labors and efforts, and have lime , set
for these things. Wo have sprouted; not
full grown, it is tmo, but still we have ap
spiouled. (Laughter.) Wu have timo to |.;n
enjoy ourselves, and we sin if wo don't do -pp
it. Eidovinent is one of iho rl .
human life, ntul it is much better fur us to ,,i|
give the young a good wholesome pleasure
than to have them steal impurities. They nu
will have it, and if not given it will be st<> wj
leu. (Cheers and laughter.) Give our cji;
young men and young women proper out 11C
doors pleasure, and we shall have fewer dis- vj,
eased bodies, fewer puny frames and pale I
faces. We shall have more mothers and j js
more babies, (laughter,) and the latter, that i
are now lilies of the valley, and soon g?? un- | ],u
sler the vailey, will then l>u more robust; cal
they will then live and thrive, and grow up di<
to bo men and women, rucIi as men and fcr
women should be and were meant to be. ' cai
lie wanted to see such men. lie did not ' tv)
believe that a saint could not bo a good fit |,?
robust fellow, nor did ho believe that n nc|
pinched visage was an evidenco of morals.1 0{
lie wanted men to be strong and healthy j ,m
on purpose to be inoial and virtuous. The i
devil, in bis opinion, had ten times the iVh
-eh a nee to hit a man who was always coin- or,
plaining of his stomach and liver, than ho (|u
had to hit ono who was whoio and sound. l,r,
"Ihoreforo ho wanted whole men, strong i)u
men, men who had no dyspepsia to coin > aM;
plain of, who had no neuralgia racking j va]
ilieir systems. 1 Sotli weie but only other ;
n.uiica for devils, and to east tlieni out lie 1
wanted out door pleasures ami exercise. I
[At this moment l!io sin ill whistle of a 1 vol
passing locomotive drowned tlio speaker's ! s;ei
voice, and lie waited. "One at a time,'' i ji,,,
said lie; 411 give it up! I am fas', enough |r;,
to heat many thing", hut a locomotive was jj,,
never one of theini" (Great lauglitm.)] c
The speaker then said he would pass M)1
fiom men mid women to the other animal* f;,,
of creation. The grounds were not only <;.
fni the sen ice of men, hut also that the brute 0f i
cieatioii might also show to what perfection ,)t
they Could attain. Here would he brought
the sheep of tho fold, ami though liiinsell a
mi nisi to, and though a minister is a slit j?
heid ho would say that your sheep is an vi)I
animal ho dul not like. There seemed to day
ho nothing to tlieui?they wero conserva- i ly 1
tives. ami had ones at that?they realized p n
his idea of a hliud Miiclcler for ohl u?age? j gaj
ami customs?"hunches of nothing, with! the
wool on their hacks?cotton wool s?m? wa
time-!' (Laughter.) idlj
Then there was (lie pig; he, too, would
he tutted out to show his paces, and exhibit '
his fatness?and the speaker liked pigs- A ! l'xl
life in the west had inado him intimately '"g
acquainted with tlio genus hog, ami, ex- l'V
cept that he soinotitnes too inuch resembled w'>
men that be knew, lie was a good creature.
Their resemblance 1? man was not their i

Hiking of the time when, as a boy, be used e
drive the cows from pastuio, stub bis toes,
?, and kick the alone and get mad. lie i;
vays loved cows; he loved the butter und s
eeso they gave us; but tbeu, said lie, 1 s
1 my courting in tho cheese room, (great l<
rgliter.) and perhaps 1 am partial. At |
y rale, my after lines have fallen in pleas- t
t places, and the thought of a good cow u
os bring back pleasant associations. t
I ?ut then, again, said he, these grounds t
II develop the horse?tho noblest animal i
ad the race, lie would to God that ho I
aid strike the rapacious eagle from our *
uutry's coin, and substitute for it the <i
r.-e. t he eagle is the thic! of tho air, as c
o lion of tho forest. Your horse is the j
ly honest man amongst ihcnt. (Ap- r
iuso.) 1 lie speaker said ho was now at
u show; and he was very glad he had
me. He had been urged and entreated
stay away, and not to encourage any i
ch scheme. He had had it said to t
in, that an enterprise commenced wiili a i
ilia, continued by a prayer and an ad |
o>s from a minister, and concluded by a t
tabling horse race, was hut a soriv sight, e
lie thought so too,but it was for this rea- i
a that ho wished this measure success,
o wanted to show the public that all own- t
? of fast horses were not had or fast men. c
u did not believe it. God forbid! He t
med a fast horse himself, one < f die best f
tho State, and lie w.i* glad of it. (Choors J
d laughter.) c
"In conclusion he said that if the I lamp s
ii Society could sliow the test of the j i
unity the spectacle of a good horse show, ; c
ie Uoiii vice and gambling, ahoiso show in i ;
e true seme of the word, they would do ^

Spare the Trees.
A cotitiibutor to ;? miscellaneous coluinu
f good things iu tbe Washington Union *
Qters tbe following plea for tree*: ^
Tho hearty response which tho sentiment g
mbodied in General Morris's " Woodman, t
pare 'hat tree* meets with, whunover tho t
ung is sung, sutiicieully proves tluit the (
ove of trees has n deep root fixed in lite
lopu'ar heart, which cannot be oasily torn t
ip. Nevertheless, it is undeniable that our f
ippeals to the woodinnn are less frequent ^
hail they should be; indeed, whatever may |
to thy individual sentiment on the subject, |
t would seem that our corporalo aulhori- (
its, instead of imploring woodmen to j
touch not a singlo bough," are forever ,
;iving thcnr directions to lop o(V all bran j
lies within reach of their fatal shears. To ,
udgc froiu their acts, their version of Mor- |
is'a song would reail?
44 WooJiuiin, /Hire time tree, |
Leave riot <i single t?i>uj>li!" I
Our alleution has been drawn to this ,
natter by tho following extract from an ar- ,
iclo on llumnnity to Trees, published some ,
nonius since in a Boston magazine, a i
iromisiiig periodical, which, in obedience i
o a law that seems to govern tho literary ,
iitorprisos of lite "modern Athens," died <
n its infancy: t
"But wo are wandering from our iiiimo |
lialo subject?cruolly to trees. The A uteri- ,
an seems to liavo a hereditary antipathy j
o Indians and trees, both having been tho j
bes lie had first to encounter in coiiouering I
litnself a lioiiic here iu the West. When i
ivory tree trunk miglit bo tho auibush of a j
kuiking enemy, whose war-whoop made i
lie hair stand on end as a convenient ban- i
lie to the insecure scalp, (so does Nature i
tdapl means to end-.) a man might be parloiied
for widling to see as much cleared
pound about his homestead as possible.

kuuws a vast deal better how a tree
iught to grow than any city foiesler?cs
lecilly when fuel is dear, and every limb
10 cuts otF adds to tho size of hi.s wood pile.
I'lio common theory seems to bo prechely
ho ierei.se of this, and tho recipe for pro- i
lacing a handsome tree is simply a stout
irm, with a blockhead at one end of it and
i saw at tho other, 'l'he instinct for work
s so strong, that wo often obsorve men who
rave nothing to do begin to pare their
tails, and in tho same way our boards of
lulectmeu and aldermen, at a loss fur other
miploymcnt, send somebody round to clip
ho trees. The ligneous sympathies of
>onrds, one would think, should bo tnoro
eusitive. Alphonso of Castile thought he
:ould have given useful advice had ho been
neseut at the creation; but we doubt wheher
he, or even a committee of city-fathers, 1
:ouid have designed an oak or an elm

without their collaboration. >
"Our English kinsmen, who show a ra- 1
ional poetic sense more in landscape gaij- s
in in jg than in any other way, display I 1
peat magnanimity in their treatment of
rees. We have seen finer specimens of the ! 1
\iuericau aihu in England than here, es- !
leeially among the evergreens, because 1
here tho system consists in leaving the tree I
vholly to its ow n whims. That is the best 1
;<?veiument for tieos which governs least 1
I hey may be trusted bufwly ?itli sipiauei 1
overeignty. A bat tice is as graceful as '
ui elm that has been doct'-red.
"We aio as wanton in the destruction '
if trees as we are barbarous in our treat- 1
ueut of them. We let loose a party of '
vild Irishmen on a structure that Nature 1
las been centuries in building, for whose '
irnament the seasons ha\o conspired?a 1

A Michigan Bed-Bug Story.
Tbe editor of the Grand ltiver Eagle has
i frieod who lias been stopping, as bo ul- !
ogee, at one of the hotels at Kalamazoo. I
lia story is pretty fairly told, aud be pos- <
esses talent in tbe way of spiuuing 'yarns'
bat would do credit to one who bas enter- <
lined bis mesa in the forecastle of a whaler i
>r relieved the tedium of a watch on deck: i
You see 1 went to bed pretty all-tired i
ised up after a bull day on the road boore
the plank was laid, calkalalin on a
;ood snooze. Waal, just as the shivers
jcgau to ease oil", L kinder fell sulhin
;ryin to pull o<V my shirt, aud diggin <
heir feel in tbe small of my back, to git a
jood hold. Wiggled and twisted, doubled
ind puckered?ail to no use?kept agoiu
t like all sin. Bitneby got up aud struck
i light to look around a spell?found about a
peck of bed bugs scattered around, and more
Iioppiu oil' iny shirt and ruiinin down my <
eg every miniL Swept oil' a place on tho j
loor, shock out a ipiilt, lay down and kiv
sred up for a nap. No use?mounted right >
>11 inu like a parcel of rats in a meal tub? I
lug a bole in tbe kiverlid and crawled '
through and gave me tits for tryin' to bide. }
Got up again and went down stairs, got a
dusli bucket from tho wagon, made a ciiolo ;
of tar on tho floor, lay down on the iuside,
ind fell ccmfortable that time anyhow. I
left the light burni i aud watched em; see
am gel together and havo a camp meeliu i
[ibout it, and they went oir in a squad, with j
mi old gray headed one on tho top, right
upon ilio wall and the ceilin, till they got
to the right spot, then dropped right plump {
into my face! Fact, by thunder. Waal, I i
swept em up again, and made a circle on
tho ccilliti too. Thought I had 'cut foul
litis time, but I swan to man, if they didn't j
pull straws out of the bed, and build a ,
bridgo over. Seeing an incredible expres- '
siou on our visage, he clenched his story
time:
It is so whether you believe it or not ]
aud sumo of them walked across on stilts. 1
Bed bugs are cautious critters, and no mistake?especially
the Kalamazoo kind.
Tub Mistakes ok a Night.?The Cincinnati
Gazelle relates an amusing anecdote
of a young gentleman of that city, who
sutlers fiom a peculiar antipathy to going
to bed betimes, and who will never
seek hit couch when ho can woo the
drowsy god in any abnormal position. A
few evenings since ho visited a young lady
in whom ho was specially interested, and
being attacked by her worthy mother with
a long discourse on sewing societies, plans
for tho relief of the poor, and tho like, he J
experienced a drowsy lit, aud fell into a pro !
found nap. Tho good old lady prosed on.
but finally saw tbo truo statu of affairs, and j
concluded to withdraw for tho night with [
her daughter, saying in her kindly way, \
"Tho poor boy is fatigued; ho has applied ,
himself too closely to his duties; lot him i
sleep, it will refresh him."
About tho second hour of tho morning :
our hero awoke, but with a singularly con
fused recollection of time, place and circum- ;
stance. Where was lie? how came ho there
and when? were questions lie could not i
solve, lie roso from tho sofa and sat erect; ;
all was darkness?not ?ten a glimmer of
light. lie finally concluded ho was in his '
own home, whore lie frequently throw him- I
self in the parlor or hall and resigned his )
spirit to Siiinmh's guardianship. S > he :
proceeded boldly up stairs to pass the re
mainder of the night in his bed. Ho | ass- '
i'"l through two rooms in ilm >1 uk, (lwnm?
IVW pctfovtiv cuiitldenl ho was home,) until
lie came, as ho supposed, to Iris own chamber.
1 Jeforo disrobing ho tut tied down tho I
do*.lies from liis couch, and in doing so
touched what felt like tho smooth cheek
and soft hair of a woman. Alarm seiz d
jpou him. Where was he? what could lie .
lo? how escape? He had no tirve for re f
lection; for, as ho had permitted his hands,
n his agitation, to test upon die face of tho
fair sleeper, she awuko and setennre I, in
moat piercing alto, at least twenty times in
is many seconds.

Inally made; reason dawned upon the i

A Strange Scene at a Theatre.
We translate from u teller dated Madrid, T
Sept 22d, to the Independence Beige, the
lullowiugaccouut of a very remarkable inch
Lieut:
"A soldier named kuentes was lately condemuud
to death for having, iu a fit of pas- ^
lion, struck a supuiioi ollicor. Since hiscundeinuation
his relatives have sought every
means of approaching tho Queen, from
whoso clemency they were told .hoy might
hope for his pardon. Last evening, when
tho preparations for the execution were al- j
most completed, the sister of tho condemned
man appeared before tho Zarzuela thenIre,
where, it was understood, tho Queen
was going to soo Kislori, tho great Italian ?
actress. I was just going iuto tho Colysco, .j
when I saw this young woman, with her
hair dishevelled, begging the people to help V
iter so that she might lay her pel'lion at ^
Her Majesty's feet. One of the crowd, who
probably know that lire Queen would not j "
leave without an interview wdth Itistori, ad- i C
vised the unfortunate woman ^io trust the i *
fate of her biother to the gieat Italian ar- ' "
tist. Tho advice was taken, and Mine, liis- ; ?
toii, without wailing to bo summoned by . c
tho Queen, and without changing lior dress, ! j1
hastened before Her Majesty after the first ' '
act, and presented the petition. The Queen,
who had been infoiiucd of what had pasted,
no sooner heard lliu act teas than she an- ! .
swered, with evident emotion, "1 pardon the \ 1
unfortunate Fuente-; his puiiishmeut is i1
commuted; assure his family ?>f this, and , j
believe me that my esteem for you is much 1
iucieased by your umleitaking this noble v
mission.' The audicnco weio all attention, j!
and the word 'pardon' was scarcely uttered
before the theatre rantr with frantic rip- j'
p'ause. The shouts of \rivu l<i Jirinaf and
Wva l>i f lit tor if lasted duriiiir the whole c
entracte, wliien was, consequently, unusu
ally long. Several times iu the evening 1
tho stage was covered with boquets and 1
wreaths thing from all parts of the house. !
Tho Queen was cheered anew as she h ft
tho theatre. To-day a great crowd stir- '
rounded the city prison, iu the colli t of i
which was erected the instrument of pun- j 1
ishiueut. Fucntes, the condemned of yes ^
lerday, is overcome with emotion l?y the j
unexpected couiinutalion of his sentence.
He cannot leave his bed, and is surrounded 1
by physicians and members of his family. 1
He is a handsomo fellow of '.'.G ycais, with 1
a physiognomy indicating anything but an L
