THEMEOAY.
Of all the wonderful stories that
I my -great-grandmother used to tell
my mother when fcbe was a little girl,
the most wonderful was about the
dark day in New England, Friday
May 19, 1780. This was during our
revolution, you will remember, and
the same. year in which the traitor,
Benedict Arnold, attempted to betray
his country to his enemies.
For several days before the nine
teenth, the air was full of vapors, as
we often see it when fires are raging
in the woods near us, and the feuu and
moon appeared red, and their usual
dear light did not reach ua, especially
when rising and setting. The winds
blew chiefly from the south-west and
north-east, aud the weather was cool
and clear. The moruing of the nine
teenth wascloudy, and in many places
slight showers fell, sometimes accom
panied by thunderand lightuing ; but
as the sun arose it did not increase the
light, and the darkness deepened and
deepened, until the children standing
before the tall clock could not see to
tell the time, and the older people
peering over the almanac, were not
able to distinguish the letters.
The birds sang their evening eonga
and flew to their neata in the woods,
the poultry hurried to their roosts,
while the cattle In the fields uttered
strange cries and leaped the stone
fences to gain their stalls, and the
sheep all huddled together bleating
piteously.
Color, which you know depends
upon the lightof the sun, filled many
with astonishment by its unusual ap
pearance : for the clouds were in some
places of a light red, yellow, and
brown, the leaves- on the trees and
the grass in the meadows were of the
deepest green, verging on indigo, the
brightest silver seemed tarnished, and
everything that is white in the sun
light bore a deep yellow hue.
The ebadows, which before noon
fall to the westward and after noon to
the eastward, were observed during
the darkness to. fall in every direc
tion. The rain also, was unlike any other
rain, and it set all the people to won
dering bb they dipped it from tubs
and barrels ; for a scum formed on it
resembling burnt leaves, emitting a
sooty smell; and this same substance
was seen on streams and rivers, espec
ially the Merrimao, where it lay four
or five inches thick, for many miles
along its shore.
Another peculiarity was the vapor;
in many localities it descended to the
earth from high in the atmosphere;
but at one point a gentleman saw the
vapors, at 9 o'clock, rising from the
springs and lowlands; onecolumu he
particularly notioed rapidly ascending
far above the highest hills, then it
spread into a large white cloud and
sailed off to the westward, a second
cloud formed in the same way from
the same springs, but did not rise as
high as the first, and a third formed
fifteen minutes afterward. At a quar
ter to ten the uppermost oloud was of
a reddish" hue, the second was green,
indigo, and blue, aud the third was
almost white.
So unwholesome was this vapor that
small birds were suffocated in it, and
many of them were so frightened and
stupified that they flew into the
houses, adding to the fears of Igno
rant people, who considered it a bad
sign for a bird to enter a dwelling.
Th'e commencementof the darkness
was between ten and eleven in the
forenoon (vbea the men were busy
in the fields and offices and work
shops, the women spinning, weaving
and- preparing dinner, and the chil
dren at school or helping their fath-
I ers and mothers at home), and con
tinued until the middle of the follow
ing night ; in some places the disk of
the sun was seen when the darkness
was the most dense.
Lights wereseen burning in all the
houses, and the people passing out-of-doors
carried torches and lanterns,
whioh. were curiously reflected on the
overhanging clouds.
Thousands of people were sure that
the end of the world had come; many
dropped their work and fell on their
knees to pray; others confessed to
their fellows the wrongs they had
had done, and endeavored to make
restitution.
The meeting-houses were orowded,-
and neighborhood prayer-meetings-
were formed, and the ministers and J
old church members prayed long
prayers, mentioning the nations and
individuals of Bible times who had
been destroyed on account of their
eins, and begging that ns God spared
thejgreatcity ef Nineveh when it re
pented, so he would forgive them,
cheer them again by the light of the
sun, and give victory to their armies.
It is said that the Connecticut Leg
islature being in session, the members
became terrified wLen they could not
see one another's faces, and a motion
was made to adjourn, when Mr. Dav
enport arose and said :
"Mr. Speaker, it is either the day of
Judgment or it is not. If it is not,
there is no need of adjourning. If it
is, I desire to be found doing my duty,
I move that candles be brought, and
that we proceed to business."
All theshiveriug frightened people
began to look forward to evening,
hoping that as tho moon ro-e full at 9
o'clock, her light would penetrate the
gloom ; butall the childreu who coax
ed to sit up andsee her, grew very
sleepy, their strained eyes were not
rewarded by her beautiful beams, for
at eight in tho evening the darkness
was total ; one could not dNiiuguish
between the earth and tho heavens,
and it was impossible to see a baud be
fore one's face.
Then all the weary childreu were
sent to bed after the most honest pray
ers that they had ever prayed, and
the older people sat up to watch for
the light that never before appeared
so glorious.
And never dawned a fairer mormng
tban the twentieth of May : for the
sun that opened the flowers and mir
rored itself in the dew-drops, brought
the color again to the children's faces
and filled every heartwith confidence.
The birds sang joyously, the cattle
returned to their pastures, the places
of bvrsiuesa were opened, and every
one went about his work more gentle
toward man and more grateful toward
God.
After the darkness was past, several
persons travelled about to gather all
possible information concerning this
memorable day, and Dr. Teuny w)ote
an account of what he learned while
on a joqrney from the East to Penn
sylvania. He says the deepest dark
ness was in Essex County, Massachus
etts, the lower part of New Hamp
shire, and the easternportion of Maine
(where my great-grandmother lived)
In Hhode Island and Connecticut it
was not so great; in New Jersy pe
culiar clouds were observed, but the
darkness was not uncommon, and in
the lower parts of Penusylvauia uoth
unusual was observed.
It extended as far north as the
American settlement and westward
to Albany, but its exact limits could
not be ascertained.
In Boston, the darkness continued
fourteen or fifteen hours, varying in
duration at other places.
As it was impossibe to attribute the
darkness to an eclipse, the wise people
formed many theories respecting it ;
being convinced tbnt it was duo to
immense fires in the woods, winds
blowing in opposite directions, and to
the condition of the vapors ; but Her
schel says : "The dark day in North
ern America was one of those wonder
ful phenomena of nature which will
always be read with Interest, but
which philosophy is at a loss to ex
plain." A Jose Well Turned.
One night'last week four young
men of Simpsonville went over in
the Todd's Point neighborhood to call
on some young ladies at the house of
an old gentlemen. After staying a
short time they took their departure,
but returned in a little while, and eith
er in spirit of mischief, or to avenge
some real or fancied' slight, deliber
ately, moved bodily a certain garden
out-house not ornamental but
useful, to the front door of the resi
dence. On arising the next morning,
the old gentleman took in the situa
tion at a glance. Arming himself
with a shot gun, he was enabled, ow
ing to the snow which bad fallen the
night previous, to track theyoungmen
to their respective place of abode. He
formed them all in a Hue and at the
muzzle of his gun, marched them to
the scene of their degradation, of the
previous night. After summoning
his daughters to witness the fun,
he compelled the young men to
carry the building back to the point
from which they bad taken it. It
was a bitter pill, but they submitted.
What made the case especially distress
ing to one of the young men was to
find his photograph, which he had
recently given to one of the young
ladies, conspicuously tacked on the
door. Shelby (Ky) Sentinel.
A little girl recently saw an old
drunken man lying on the doorstep,
the perspiration pouring off his face,
and a crowd of children preparing to
make fun of him. She took her little
apron and wiped his face, and looking
up so pitifully to the rest, made this
remark : "O don't hurt him, he is
somebody's grandpa."
Lord Falmouth, during the En
glish racing season of 1878 won $193,
500. He was unlucky at the begin
ning of his turf career, but his luck
changed in 1869, when Kingcraft won
several two year-old victories. Since
then Lord Falmouth's horses have
won him about $800,000.

Tainting the" Scenes.-
Stage scenery, now one of the chief
attractions of a theater, says ifurpcr's
Weekly is one of comparatively mod
ern origin. So late as 15C1 the French
theaters had no painted scenery, and
the actors remained on the stage dur
ing the entire performance; even
Shakspeaie had no other sonery than
tapestry hangings autlcurtuins. Mut
able scenery was first used in a public
theater in England by Davenaut in
1(562, although something of ihe kiud
had been arranged atOxferd by Iuigo
Joues as early as 1G05 on the occasion
of an entertainment given by Jame
I. In most stage seenery.as it is al
ways to be viewed from some dis
tance, the excution is bald and free,
to produce the desired effect upon the
audience ; but the work requires great
er artistic knowledge and skill than
moat people suppose. Examiued
closely, thecauvasa exhibits blotches
and splashes of color, which at the
proper distance, assume form and
harmony. But, though It may be
distance that lends euchantint-nt to
tne view, no small amouut of experi
ence aud skill is necessary to endow
the drawing aud coloring with the
magic power of blending iuio an at
tractive imitation of reality.
Importance of Clean Skin Most
of our invalids are such, aud millions
of more healthy people will become
iuvalids, for the want of payitg the
most ordinary attention to tie re
quirements of the skin. The uem
branc is too often regarded as a tover
iug only, instead of a complicated
piece of machinery, scarcely tecoud
in its texture and sensitiveness to the
ear and eye. Many treatit withas lit
tle referuce to its proper functions as
if it wereuothiug better than a tag for
their bones It is this inconsideiation
for the skin thai is the cause of a
very large proportion of the diieasea
of the world. If, as claimed by some
scientists, four fifths, in the btik, of
all we eat aud drink must eithei pass
off through theskin or be turnedback
upon the system as a poison, au( that
life depends as much upon theai ex
halations through the skin as upon
inhaling pure air through the ungs,
it must be of the most vital impoitauce
to keep the channel free.
Bob Inger3oll has a chance to retal
iate upon his Qiiemies again. He re
cently delivered his lectuie on the
Mistakes of Moses, in Cincimati, and
raised a whirlwind of denunciation of
himself, from all the churchls. The
denunciation by Aachbishop Purcell
was put promiuentli' forward aa a
crusher. Now cornea the news that
the Archbishop and his brothr have
failed. They did a sort of banllugaud
depositing business, and neirly all
the members of the Catholic church
in that city deposited their lit le sav
ings with them. They had several
millions of dollars, made up chiefly
of these little savings. The greater
part of it iflgnnn, in hol apom.iiono
Ingersoll can now tell them thtt if he
did dispute some of the hard spiles
of the Bible, he never squanderel the
hard savings of the poor. Kinsas
