[Special Correspondence.!
Newport, July 22.—Here, as at all sum-
mer resorts, and, indeed, I might say,
all social centers, there are no young men.
I heard a lady who knows Newport society
from its foundation up say: “I could give a
party to-morrow and have seventy-five or a
hundred young, beautiful and wealthy wo-
men as guests. But when it comes to young
men, I couldn’t possibly muster more than
six. Such as I could scare up are sated
with adulation, so spoiled by pass-
ing for more than' they are worth,
that they would be unendurable.”
Then she went on to tell how thoroughly
selfish, inconsiderate and hateful some of
these first-class young men are. They accept
invitations, and then assume a bored air
while they are being entertained. They turn
up their noses at dancing. ‘‘Oh, no,” they
“get enough of that in the winter.” They
treat heiresses patronizingly, are tired of
them, or pretend to be. They affect satiety,
and deem it the interesting thing to show
great boredom on all social occasions. The
story goes that some of them find the society
of young and beautiful heiresses so tiresome
that they slip off to servants’ balls and dance
like jumping jacks with the maids of white
caps and aprons on terms of perfect equality.
This is not very promising timber for the
young ladies of millionaire society to select
oaks from. Small wonder is it that the
young ladies elope with coachmen and huck-
sters. Much of the youthful swell’s conver-
sation consists of shoulder shrugs and eye-
brow raising. This language is thought to
be very English, and an unmistakable mark
of familiarity with society—familiarity
which has culminated in prostration of the
mental forces.
One of the most precious relics of the past
here is old Trinity church. It is, indeed, a
feature which belongs to a vanished day,
. though much prized by certain ones who
breathe in the present. It is of wood, was
built in 1726, and its tall, square spire is
surmounted by a crown. Inside, the modern
world is lost sight of entirely. The pews
are square, high-backed, with beats facing
in all directions, giving splendid sleeping
facilities to either restless childhood or
weary age. A white sounding board of
great ponderosity hangs over the minister’s
head in a most threatening manner. The
organ was a gift of Bishop Berkley. Various
memorial tablets adorn the walls. It has
been kept in perfect order, and is as fresh,
clean and sweet inside as if it had been built
last year instead of last century. Some of
the citizens venerate this building. Then-
sole claim to aristocracy lies in tne fact that
they hold a pew there. I heard it in-
timated that the preaching to be heard
therein is no more modern than the
church building. A graveyard in-
closes two sides of it—such a very, very
old graveyard, with its slabs and
last century monuments of slate and stone
crumbling to the earth. “Some very old-
fashioned people are buried here,” said a
friend who pointed it out to me. Evidently
they were old-fashioned. I could barely
make out the year seventeen hundred and
something on most of them. Such good
old English names as Deborah Forester, Jane
Melville and Elizabeth Wickham were
numerous. And what rare cherubs topped
off the epitaphs—cherubs with moon faces,
puffy cheeks, long, narrow noses and mouths
whose corners turn down to the point of dis-
malness, and whose wings sprout out all
around their necks. Looking at them one
realizes most forcibly how excellent a thing
is improvement, and that it is well it takes
in cherubs and angels in its march. Here
the dead rest quietly under carven coats-of-
arms, sour-visaged cherubs, angels who are
anything but bright and fair, and epitaphs
so flattering one wonders how they can keep
still beneath them. Here is a mandatory
one over the remains of a doctor of medicine
who died in 1720:

My willing soul now covets mansions new;

Here, truly, is one reminded of the little-
ness of human vanities, yet the reminder
seems to work no change in the living.
They take their fling at life regardless of
graveyards and other consequences, drink
in envies, foster little jealousies, cherish
petty ambitions, vain imaginings, bitter ri-
valries and ignoble melancholy; all the
evils which sow this life with thorns,
B^g hop Berkley’s name is a part of New-
port's history. Here, in this soft, half-lan-
guid climate, he did much of his introspec-
tive Writing. One can readily understand
that much musing by the rocky coast of
Cliff walk, which he was said to frequent,
would incline the spirit toward the unseen
and eternal, rather than the material and
perishable. The people who live here now
don’t incline that way, however. The witty
Donn Piatt once described Newport as the
summer resort of attenuated snobs—a place
that has the best climate and worst society
on the continent,
One of the interesting characters of the
place is Miss Jane Stuart, daughter of Gil-
bert {Stuart, the well knqwn artist, long
since dead, whose portraits of Washington
and other public men of by-gone days are
now precious heirlooms. Miss Stuart lives
alone, with her servants, the last of her
family, and an object of admiring and affec-
tionate interest to a large circle of friends.
She is a demonstration of a truth but little
known, that a woman need not be young to
be charming, Her bright intellect, gra-
cious manners and large sympathy make
her society much sought by those
who prefer intellectual entertainment in-
stead of fashionable. She inherited her
father’s talent, and has devoted her life to
painting. Her little studio is full of pictures
and studies of great interest, among them a
portrait of Charlotte Cushman as Lady
Macbeth. Miss Cushman was well known
to Miss Stuart, and sat for the picture. Miss
Stuart has an inexhaustible fund of reminis-
cences of men and women of prominence" na
that they were denominated “German Bap-
tists.” But they did not so call themselves.
They only oalled each other “brethren” and
“sisters.” They did not believe that bap-
tism in itself was a saving rite. The “River
Brethren” were altogether another and a
different sect.
Now the sound of worshipful praise drew
us back to the upper room, where the elders
were occupying the seat against the front
wall, while on the other hand a seat of
women similarly faced the audience. Long
tables, covered with spotless white cloth,
were between each pair of seats, through
about half the house, while the remainder of
the floor rose slightly, which gave every
one in the room a good view. The seats by
the tables had hinged backs, to face either
elders or table. Everything about this
estate showed attentive zeal and able thrift;
no cobwebs; nothing that needed paint;
nothing off the hinges.
A young brother, apparently new in his
position, was first put forward. His sub-
ject was largely on the self-examination
which should precede the Sacred Feast, and
the necessity of being in ‘ ‘order”; that fol-
lowing Biblical command and example they
might believe themselves to be the church
of God. In explanation of what constitutes
order, he distinctly read a Sacred Scripture,
that familiar as it was, had never sounded
so emphatic, so appropriate; being in com-
plete harmony with the kind and quiet
though rigid conduct and costume of the
occasion: “The head of every man is Christ;
and the head of the woman is the man; the
head of Christ is God. Every man praying
or prophesying with his head covered, dis-
honoreth his head; but every woman that
prayeth or prophesieth with her head un-
covered, dishonoreth her head. ”
Here appeared the reason for the women’s
caps:
“A man indeed ought not to cover his
head; for he is the image and glory of God.
But the woman is the glory of the man.
For the man is not of the woman, but the
woman of the man; nor was the man
created for the woman, but the woman for
the man. Judge in yourselves—is it comely
that a woman pray to God uncovered?”
And the young brother remarked:
“Some have said that the hair is a cover-
ing. It is a covering, but not the cover-
ing.”
This reminded me ol an incident in onC
of their homes. At the blessing asked at
the table the lady of the house happened not
to have on her cap. She threw her hand-
kerchief upon her head; all ,wa^«fchen in
“order.”
He read verses which spoke of eating
greedily; feasts at which “one is hungry
and another is drunk. Have ye not houses
to eat and to drink in? Despise ye the
church of God? When ye come together to
eat wait one for another, and if any man
hunger let him eat at home.”
When subsequently the sacramental b/’ead
was broken, they laid each the piece upon
the table, to “wait one for another,” until
the last one was ready. “He that eateth
and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drink-
eth damnation. * * * For this cause
many are weak and sickly among you.” The
chapter also discoursed especially of the em-
blems. Dunkards say that the ordinary
Christian sects do not commemorate the
Lord’s Supper; they celebrate only the bread
and wine which came after the supper. The
Dunkards commemorate the whole feast of
the Last Supper, copying all the attendant
ceremonies, and have an actual, realized love
feast, an inter-communion of believers and
communion with Jesus through his souvenir
emblems. Nor do they hide their light under
a bushel, but expect and provide for specta-
tors, hoping they may be impressed by the
methods which, being literally Biblical, they
assert are the most truly Christian.
The second speaker was a tall and broad
and white-haired, clear-voiced, strong Ger-
man, who spoke the guttural syllables, un-
derstood by the majority of the members,
who are generally of Pennsylvania origin.
His distinct utterances—what a lesson in
that unwieldy language! Often before the day
and evening were over he spread his small
white hand3—undoubtedly of patrician de-
scent—and solemnly called upon “Oonser
Fater in Himmel!” The next speaker con-
firmed what the sister had told me; that
some say the German Baptists regard im-
mersion as a saving ceremony. “Nay,
verily; only when preceded by a self-scru-
tinizing cleansing of the spirit of which
baptism is the outer work. He said that al-
though it was not in order for women to
preach, it was to pray; whereupon several
prayed. He then invited spectators to go
below, where then- supper was now ready,
and all were welcome. A moment I stopped
on an outer platform to look at the green
and to sniff the blessed air, where prairie
and woodland meet, and then, with thank
ful heart and plenteous appetite, I strolled
down to the svf per table.

& Witness Who Wouldn’t Ee Uullyra^ged.
[The San Franciscan.]
“Now, then, go ahead with the procession.’
There was an exciting horse stealing case
tried up at Bodie last week, and the oppos-
ing counsel bullyragged the witnesses in a
manner calculated to have convulsed even a
Frisco lawyer with envy. Finally the name
of a well-to-do old granger was called, and
ha stepped upon the stand, carrying a double-
barrel shotgun in his hand.
“What are you going to do with that
weapon?” asked the judge.
“Wall, I’ll tell you, Squire,” said the old
man, cheerily. “I hearn soma talk around
here this morning that the lyera calkilated
ter ax me some questions about a little hoss
misunderstandin’ I had myself when I was
1 young man back in ther states, and about
my havin’ an ext-ry wife down in Texas
somewhar. Now Fra willin’ to tell all I
know about this here perticular ease, but I
lin’t going ter take any begosh nonsense
from anybody. I’m a law- abidin’ man,
Jedge, but I rile powerful easy. Now, then,
go ahead with ther procession,” and placing
his cocked gun across his lap the witness
turned to the attorneys with a bland smile.
There was a solemn pause for a few min-
utes, and then the witness was excused, and
stepped down amid terrific applause.
A Joke Older than America.
[London Letter in Philadelphia Times.]
All the theatrical people are laughing at
an old American gag that they have put on
Barry Sullivan. I think it was started
about Edwin Forrest. At any rate, take it
and label it with the name of any star actor
and it will fit for vanity; but here it is: In
view of the well known great opinion of
himself of Barry Sullivan, some wicked wags
instruct a small boy to go down on his knees
when he presents the tragedian with a let-
ter. Tragedian takes the homage coolly and
quite as his due, but remarks blandly: “You
kneel to me, but I hope, my boy, that you
also do not fail to nightly kneel to One who,
rERHAPS, is greater far than I ami”

that she could not turn over in bed alone.
She used two bottles of Electric Bitters,
and is so much improved, that she is able
now to do her own work.”
Electric Bitters will do all that is
claimed for them. Hundreds of testimo-

[Original.]
A white kerchief shaken afloat
By tho tremors of one pretty hand,
And a boy with his heart in his throat
At the edge of the wave, on the sand.
She kisses her soft finger tips
To the sorrowing lad on the shore,
And her shallop goes out mid the ships,
But returns its fair burden no more.
The sun has gone down in the west
And the winds and the sea are at peace,
But the lad stands and beats on his breast,
And his sorrow has never surcease.
There are cargoes and sailors and ships,
And the breezes blow in from the isles;
But alas! for two warm, ruby lips
And two dimples that melt into smiles.
And alas I for the slight, fickle mind
That forgets, amid flatterers and ease,
The brown country lad left behind
With his yearning outreaching the seas.

Sherbrooke, P. Q., July 22.
It is said that Macaulay recited the greater
part of the lay of the “Last Minstrel” after
reading it for the first time. He used to
say, and he was by no means a boastful man,
that if by any chance all the existing copies
'of Milton were to be destroyed he thought
he could replace the first six books of ‘ ‘Para-
dise Lost” from memory. “Macaulay,”
said Sydney Smith, “can you recite the list
of popes?” “No,” confessed Macaulay, “I
get confused with the Johns and Gregorios,”
“Well,” said Hallam, who was present, “can
you manage the Archbishops of Canter-
bury?” ‘ ‘The Archbishops of Canterbury?”
was the disdainful reply; “any fool can re-
cite his Archbishops of Canterbury back-
ward.” And he began from Howley back
bo Pole, when his hearers declared them-
selves satisfied.
