'his thanksgiving celebration was roclaitned in the early spring of 1664 , y the then Dutch director or governr of the colony, William Kieft, as a manifestation of devout rejoicing over be favorable outcome of a late irar?a very murderous war?in rhich the settlers had been engaged rith the neighboring Indians. The nnniint in tlifi iotirnal in nuestion tales that "the previous summer had eeu one of Indiau terror and depreation," harvests partly gathered, and unine threatening the colonists ; yet lie writer altogether refrains from tellng how this unsatisfactory and digressing state of affairs arose. He, inwever, goes on to describe how, on a ertain clear and cold night, the moon liining brightly, and the "savages" in heir villages of wigwams engaged in elebrating one of their annual festials, the Dutch settlers, with the asistance of Captain John Underbill rom Plymouth, who was at the time 11 New Amsterdam, undertook to efictually dispose of the troublesome ndian problem of that day. "When all was still," he proceeds, the Dutch advanced, discharged a olleyof bullets upon the doomed vilige, and charged, sword in hand, he savages made a desperate resismce, but the whites succeeded at last 1 firing all the combustible wigwams, 'he red warriors were shot down in le light of their blazing lodges. Six undred Indians perished.* Of those -1. _ It.. !:> !. ..ill... riiu crowueu iue nine vjuayc at uigutill but eight escaped. None of the 'hites were killed, and only a few 'ouuded. The victors bivouacked in le snow until daylight, when they 1 it out upon their return, arriving in 1 Tew Amsterdam, like Roman conuerers, the clay afterwards. For this 1 rilliant victory it was felt that ordi- 1 arv methods of celebration would not 1 jlnce. Governor Kieft accordingly 1 roclaimed a day of public thanksgiv- 1 lg." And the account ends, after a 1 escription of the supposed appearance 1 f the doughty fathers and their fami- 1 es wending their way through "the 1 visted, narrow streets to the queer tile church,"?It was a devout 1 hanks?iving Day, indeed, in New { .msterdam." ' Now the awful occurrence which is ' ere narrated without a word of con- ' Emulation, if inn of implied approval, 1 as long seemed to me to furnish an icident in colonial history, taken in ' mnection with the massacre of the ' [ackensacks of the preceding year, 1 hich strikingly contrasts with the ! lethod of Indian treatment habitualr employed by the early settlers in ] /illiam Penn's colony on the Dela- < are. In the larger History of the j nited States compiled by the under- . gned, it is shown that several war- 1 ors of the Raritan tribe were brutal- < r shot, because of the belief (proba- ? [y correct) that some of their number < ad tried to rob a Dutch vessel, and I Iso because of the suspicion (unconrmedj that they had stolen some I vine from Staten Island. The Hack- < isack massacre is then'briefly told in I le history, witli a necessary gleam of ' ght cast upon its origin, as follows: t Two years later, in 1643, another difculty, much more sanguinary in its i '.sulis, arose with the Hackensacks, I 'hoalso dwelt on the west side of the . ver. One of this tribe having been I lade drunk, and then robbed by some I Sn MiianiM killoH tWfl nf thf> I SJULliaitS) i LA iv Y t* ikvv v.. v .... , utch. The chiefs remonstrated j jjainst the sale of brandy to their peo- , le, but nevertheless olfered to make s iparation. Ivieft, however, who i ould listen to no apology, was only I > be satisfied with blood. In the leantime the Hackensacks were ioin- i I by another tribe about Tappan I ho had also incurred tbe enmity of ; ie Dutch by retaliating the murder < t'awairior. Agaiust these offenders ! vo companies were sent out, one of 5 lem being commanded by a colonist I amed Adriansen, who had been a eebooter in the West Indies. The < iidians, surprised in the night, offer- f I but little resistance to their assail- i its; and warriors, women, aud chilren were slain without mercy. < heir shrieks, borne by the wintry * ind across the frozen waters, were \ istinctly heard on the Manhattan 1 jore. The wounded who remained ext morning were either slain or i irown into tiie icy river." The reader may now be prepared to t idge whether tiiis massacre of the t [uckensacks, under the leadership of t freebooter (wno was afterwards sent i prisoner to Holland for making at- ( ick, with pistol and cutlass, upon the erson of Director Kieft), or the cam- j lign of a year later under Captain s uderhill, who, in accomplishing the * aughter of the five hundred, had but j flowed out the way he favored as a i ei'o of the Pequod war, was, in either t ise, a "brilliant victory," calling for Jcvout thanksgiving," as already j limited. j Does not this forbidding episode of * vo centuries and a half ago ofler us j iod for present reflection ? Thecoun- l y has been thrilled with the shock- < ig details of the killing, the murderjs affray, or the massacre,?whicbev: it may be styled,?at Wounded nee, and has been told that the sol- j iers engaged were (as asserted) of the t ginient which in the Custer massacre r ,ul been so remorselessly cut d)wn by c ic warriors of Sitting Dull. They c live had their revenge. Admittedly, t le course of the ho^tiles was not a t x>d one. The daily press telegrams i id dispatches have put them outside j le pale of humanity, for they are on- i ' "bucks" and "red devils." And t lis has come to pass after the govern- c lent has wronged the Indians out of j leir rations, and otherwise failed (in j veral respects) to fulfill its solemnly nposed treaty obligations, while in c ic meantime it has set men over ? lem. in their agencies, whose only (commendation wag that they had t rved the governiug political party, { id had not yet received their promise t reward. Yes, the Indians had j leir grievances; they took a wrong f ay to right them (by force, like their i bite exemplars), and they have suf- ^ ired grievously. And now may the t ation?far the more responsible party ( f the two?observe henceforth two lings, which will make for enduring eaee: "First, keep its promises; and icond, appoint good, faithful, and ( ipable agents, of the type of William 1 tuncan, of Metlakahtla, and of many j f those recommended in the past by ! ie Society of Friends, and in the 1 lain by the other religious denominaons. The government has inflicted ' __ i in inrri? mmmrnMm great wrongs through notable shortcomings in these directions. The way to rectify those wrongs is very plain, .T^i and it can scarcely be througn the M method of re-transferring the Indian . service to the War Department. A The number slaughtered at that time appears to have been about five hundred. In the massucre of the Pequods, eight years earIter, In which Underbill also figured, six hun- (a dred of the natives were either cut down or ' , <.S| perished In the flames of their bnrnlng wigwarns, which the whites bad fired.

About two years before his death, 9 Charles Sumner was ordered abroad by his physician. On the steamer in. which he sailed was a mother with her tSm three children, whom she was taking -M to Europe to be educated. It happen- .? , ed that the only girl of the party was ^ 3eated neaj Mr. Sumner at the table, and could hear much of his conversation. In a short time she became fas- ';$?| einated with the rare personality that 'XM for so many years had inspired a great ^ political party. . She listened eagerly to every word, v"| but soon became greatly mortified bejause she could not understand much )f what he said. She had never < studied the science of government; she knew nothing of European poll- ^8 tics, and little of American history. ' ^ For the first time in her life she real ized that an interesting, helpful sci- . )-:$m jnce had been neglected in her education. She determined to supply the ' emission for herself, and on reaching ^.$8 England began the study of American politics. The functions of the diffec- ;^|| jnt parts of a government, legislative, . judicial and executive, the duties of an viga American citizen, political parties, - *3j svho vote aQd why, town-meetings, iducation, taxes, labor and capital, strikes, banks, commerce, diversities >f industries?all these she soon found . ,$& ;o be factors in a fascinating problem. Her growing enthusiasm amused her ^ 'riends, especially her brothers. What jould be the use of a girl troubling her aead about such things ? they asked. rhe answer came in a manner quite .. j n expected. One evening during their continued residence in England the family was nvited to a small reception given to John Bright, then at the zenith of his $jl iame. Shortly after their entrance in;o the drawing-room the conversation ;f|jj :urned to American politics, in which Mr. Bright manifested great interest. A. convention was at that time in ses"/X" O W7 f\a tni on/1 rv-? 11 rtli onV- ' 3 J UU XII a T T COIVI U VI l/J | tttJU OiUVU UUA- ..r? ety was expressed about the nomina;ion which it was likely to make^ Turning to an American gentleman, Mr. Bright made some inquiry as J :he rules governing the formation juch an assembly. The person adiressed, evidently greatly chagrined ' tt his ignorance, was obliged to an- . iwer that he did not know. Appeals ;o three other guests met with the ' 13 same response. Then, to the surprise )f every one, a modest little American ^ ;irl advanced timidly to Mr. Bright, | md gave him the desired information. > Mr. Bright was delighted. He seat- >' id himself at the girl's side and talked ;vith her for the entire evening, and svhen taking leave of her said to her nother: "You Americans have indeed made wonderful advances in education. ;; rhe future of a country is secure when hp vminc men and women alike are rained to intelligent understanding of > he laws which govern them. The lext generation will be a race of patri)ts." A few days afterward came an ur-. jent Invitation for the entire family to ..'4 ipend a week at the Bright homeitead. There the little American was ntroduced to Mr. Gladstone and j nany other prominent English statesnen. Her unique experience is very suggestive. How many of our young peo>le are at all acquainted with the preaitit state of European politics? Too nany of them, indeed, have yet to earn the very alphabet of their own jovernment.?Youth's Companion. Fruit as Food.?Now, I will tell ,'ou what I claim for fruit as food; hat is, for fruit as a complement of me's daily diet. First, that it is exseedingly palatable ; secondly, that it lauses, owing to this very palataljle\aaa nn iiirrpfisAil flow of saliva: liirdly, that it thus assists us in digest- ? ng food, both bread and meat; fourthy, that fruit itself easily assimilated >y the system ; fifthly, that it keeps he system free and in good working iondition ; sixthly, that from its acds, salts and essential oils, the blood s purified and disease germs destroy:d ; aud seventhly, that from its saciharine matter the body is nourished ind the animal heat is kept up. It would seem like a paradox to say r hat fruit both warms and cools the )ody, but such is the case. In Sumrnr its acids temper and equalize the leat, in Winter its sugars warm. Suerarand acid, in fact are so equally j jalaneed in this food, formed in the t rrcat Labratory of nature, that nei- ] her preponderates unduly or to the d ietriinent of the other. 1 Oil of peppermint in water, dilut- I :d even to one part in one million, J >vill kill cockroaches in an hour, they J lying in convulsions.
