Of course the wood is prepared in some way in order to make this possible; and when done the work has all the delicacy of the most skillful carvings. These ornaments are afforded at a very reasonable price, and are well worthy the attention of all workers in wood.

We have seen some of them used with very attractive effect in a black walnut bookcase, designed by E. C. Ryer, and made in the extensive sash and door factory of Messrs. Chase Smith, who, by the way, are agents for the carvings. Middlebcrt Items.

1k. bcHEKCK's Mandrake Pills for disease of the liver, or to act as a general Puricauve. All of these three medioinea are often required in eurinz Consumption, though the fulinonio By nip alone nas cured many desperate eases. The Seaweed Tonie and Mandrake Pills assist in regulating the btomach and Liter, and help the Puliuonlo by- rup to digest and searen tnrougn tne nioou vessels, bv which means a cure is soon effected. These medicines are conscientiously offered to the public as the only safe, certain and reliable remedies ror ruimonary consumption, ana lor an tnose morbid conditions of the body which lead to that fa'al disease.

Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia are olten forerunners of Consumption, and when they require the most prompt attention. The Pulmonic Syrup is a medicine which has bad a Ionic probation before the public Its value has been proved by the thousands of cures it has made through a period of more than thirty-five V'ears, in all of which time Its reputation has constantly increased, and the most obstinate skepticism can no longer doubt that it is a remedy wnich may Le used with confidence in all cases which admit ot a cure. If the patient will persoveriugly follow the directions which accompany each bottle, he wlil certainly be cured, if his lungs are not too much wasted to make a cure possible. Kven in ossea supposed to be incurable, when friends and physicians have despaired, the use of this medicine has saved the life ot the patient, and restored him to perfect health. Dr.

Schenok himself was cured in precisely such circumstances, and many others have been equally fortunate by judiciously inakingly making a timely use of Dr. Sohenck's remedies. Dr. Schenok does not say that all cases of Pulmonary Consumption are within the reauh of medicine, but he emphatically asserts, that often when patients have the most alarming symtoms, sueh as a violent oough, night sweats, and general de'rility, even to such a degree that they are obliged to lie in bed, and when tbey are given up by their physi cian, they may still be cured. medical treatment can create new lungs, but when the lungs are very badly diseased, and to some extent destroyed, a oure may be effected Dr.

bohenok's niediciuos. Also, in Scrofulous diseases these medicines are equally efficient. Dr. bfthenck has photographs of a number or persons wno nave Deen nearly corerea with running sores, and now all healed up. This shows its purifying properties, which must be done to heal cavities in the lungs.

In the treatment ot Consumption, it is of the utmost importance to give vigor and a healthy tone to the system, lionce it is necessary to strengthen the appetite of the patient and improve the digestion. Proper nourishment is required, together with such means as will make the food easily digestible. The articles most suitable for the diet of consumptive patients are designated in Dr. Schenck's Almanacs, which are distributed gratuitously. In general, the mott highly nutritious articles are to be preferred; but the digestive organs must be strengthened lu order to make either food or medicine serviceable, This requirement is met by the Sea Weed Tonic, and for this purpose it was designed.

When the digestive powers are put in good order, tho food bas its proper effect, the system of the patient is invigoratod, and tbe lungs begin to exercise their Amotions in a normal and healthy manner. Then the healing powers of the Pulmonic syrup will complete the oure. Pulmonary Consumption is almost always complicated with Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, Schenok'a Mandrake Pills are intended to remove obstructions from the liver and restore its healthy action. They have all the eilicacy which is ascribed to calmel or blue mass," and are warranted not to contain particle of any mineral poison. These pills eure the most obstinate oostiveness, sick headache, piles, bilious affeel ions, and all other diseases which arise from a torpid or obstructed condition of the liver.

One box of these pills will prove the efficacy of the medicine. In Consumption, the Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are invaluable auxiliary medicines. TheyTelieve the sufferings of the patient and assist the Pul monio Syrup in effecting a cure. They have been found useful in the last stages of Consumption, where the lunga were almost entirely destroyed, and all symptoms, accordin to the judgment of physicians, indicated speedy death. The lives of patients who wore actually in a dying condition have been preserved for months by the use of Schenck'e three great remedies.

The amount of butter brought to market on Tuesday Sept. 28, was 1630 tubs, or 81,500 poundsnet weight, Prices ranged from 3 to 38 cents per pound, with some choice lota going at 40 to 41 eents, the ruling price was 36 cents. Fatal -Accident. Charles Ellis, a brane- nian on Conductor Reed's freight train, running between Rutland and Bellows Falls, was killed on Tuesday morning, while shackling cars. He was in a stooping position at the time, and the banter on one car being a trifle higher than that on the other, caught his head, when, the cars coming together, he was almost instantane ously crushed to death.

A woman in the employ of John Hill of West- ford, became deranged a week ago Monday night, and rushed out of the house barefoot and bareheaded, with little clothing on. Search was immediately commenced by half a dozen of the neighbors, but she was not found till Tues day afternoon having been in the woods during the severe storm of that night. The unfortunate woman has since been kept in close confinement with no signs returning reason. The cause of insanity we have not learned further than that it is supposed to be hereditary. The Annual Fair of the Clinton County Agricultural Society, opened at Cumberland Park, Plattsburg, New York, on Tuesday tjjf, 28th, under the most favorable auspices.

The air was cool and bracing, the grounds dry, and yet free from dust. The scrub race as advertised came off at 4 o'clock, P. M. There were five' entries, all cheap horses and heavily (to the crows At the word go they went, and the last horse driving all before him, came out several lengths behind nd took the purse. At the close of the day the entries numbered some five hundred and twenty, being nearly one hundred more than were presented last year.

At a town meeting held on Tuesday, it was voted to extend the appropriation previously made for the purchase of a poor farm from $8,500 to 12,500. The meeting also authorized the selectmen straighten Loomis Street, at Gunnerson's Corner. A new hotel is to be erected in Barton.

It will consist of a main building 88x44 feet, and two wings, one 60x32, and the other 30x30, and will afford accommodation for a large number of guest. The main building is to be three stories high, surmounted by a French roof. Unrepresented. At the session of the Qrsnd Lodge of the O. af O.

F. of the United States, now being held in San Franeisco, Vermont is unrepresented. Deacon James Mitchell of this city, the representative elect, having failed to put in an appearance. Every other State and Territory within our domain has sent one or more delegates to the meeting. The mass convention called at Rutland on Saturday last to take measures to aid in the construction of a steam canal from Rutland to Whitehall was a failure.

Indeed no convention was held. Several persons were present from towns outside of Rutland, but on making inquiry as to the Convention, found that the Rutlanders knew nothing about it. They waited about the doors of the Opera House, where the meeting 'was called, for an hour or two, when, arriving at the conclusion that they were the victims of a practical jo'te, they sought the earliest trains 'for their homes. Arrested. Last Thursday, Deputy U.

S. 'Marshal Flanagan, of this city, brought from East Hardwick and confined in our County jail, one D. S. Morse, who for some time past has been teaching in Hardwick. The charge against Morse is that some five years ago, while transacting legal business in Chicago, he forged the names of certain parties to a document by which he procured the payment of a bounty cf 125, from the Treasury Department.

This im "wey he has never accounted for, and he is now held a complaint of the V. S. government. Xhb Massawipm Railroad. Work on the Massai vippi, or extension of the Pfissumpsic railroad, hi progressing favorably.

On the main line, the rails are la 'k' one mite on this end and two to two a half miles on the Lennoxville end.

Over $335,000 of the capital stock of the road have been paid in. Wood-Cabvibos. We were much struck, the other day, with some specimens of ornamental woodwork made by a new process. They were manufactured by the Bridgeport Wood Carving Company," of Bridgeport, and consist of medallion heads, clusters of fruit and flowers, arabesque ornaments, for the dee-oration of furniture, picture frames, drawer knobs, and any thing to which graceful wood carvings would be a suitable addition. are called carvings, bat they are in reality, as next morning discovered that Cole was missing, and that he had repaid the hospitality with which he had been treated by stealing Pecor's pocket-book containing $6.75.

When the body was found, two men notified Pecor of the fact, and requested him to assist them in getting it ashore. Ibe accused also states that it has been the custom of individuals of a certain class in Whitehall to invent fictitious stories for the pur pose ot sending him on false errands, thought that the men were joking, and told them that be guessed that they were able to bring the body ashore. He was subsequently arrested and held by the coroner's jury on the charge of wilfully and maliciously taking the life of Cole. The prisoner who appears to be a very ignorant man, complams bitterly of the action of the nitenau aut nor i ties in hurrying him on to Troy without permitting him to procure neces sary articles of clothing. Troy Times, 21th.

Advice to Store Clerks I would not make the farmers of' New England discontented. I would not advise everybody to put up their farms at auction. I would not advise any well-to-do farmer of Massachusetts ot Vermont to leave his old home and rush out here without first coming to survey the country but ir 1 were a young man measuring off tape and ribbon, or selling stays and ribbons to simpering young ladies in a city store, I would give such a jump over the counter that my feet would touch ground in the center of a great prairie. "Carttton" in Minnesota. Tub NKWsnoYft' Home.

When the proposition for the establishment of a New sboys' Home in New York city wis first made, it found very few friends and supporters. Even those interested and experienced in charitable work in the metropolis were convinced that nothing could be done for the relief of the wandering Arabs of the street, and it was through the voluntary aid of a few gentlemen that means were obtained for a small beginning. Many readers will doubtless remember the newspaper accounts of the open ing of the school and lodging house in the loft of the iurt building, on the corner or ru.ton and Nassau streets, which took place on the evening of the 18th of March, 1854. These quarters were very small, containing but two rooms, and accommodating about eight boys. The new quarters at Nus.

41) and 51 Park place are four stories high and furnish accommodations 'for over 250 boys. The building is well ventilated and abundantly supplied with bathing facilities. On the lower floor are the dining, laundry, store and servants' rooms, the kitchen, and the rooms for the family of the family of the superintendent. The dining room can acccommodate on special occasions 200 boys. Two meals are furnished daily, breakfast tit 6 a.

and supper at 7 p. the former meal consists of bread, coffee and syrup, and the latter of bread and coffee, with butter and meat on alternate evenings. Many of the inmates rise at 3 a. in season to get the earliest morning papers, and these get their breakfast elswhere. The second floor is divided into a schoolroom, a gymnasium, a savings bank, and bath and wash rooms; and the two upper stories are used entirely as dormitories.

The savings bank is an especially commendable institution. Usually the boys deposit a part of their earnings every night; at the end of each month aggregate statements are made to the depositors allowing the amount they ha re on hand, and an allowance of five per cent, interest is made. Since the date of the organization of the Home the boys have saved and during the past year they contributed $3644.45 towards its expenses. The bank is a very simple affair, consisting of a large walnut table, with a drawer divided into small compartments. The top of the table is pierced with penny holes, the holes are numbered, each boy has his number, and a register cf the depositories is carefully kept.

Oftentimes the new arrivals are covered with filthy rags and vermin, in which case they are thoroughly cleansed and furnished with comfortable The even ings are spent in playing dominoes and check ers, or in exercise in the gymnasium. Midnight Missions in New Fob k. The women eggaged in the Midnight Mission of Ber lin, Prussia, deny that their efforts to save fallen women are unavailing. They say they have reclaimed two hundred, and that very few who are rescued have relapsed. The movement in this city seems to have nearly, if not quite, died out.

The Midnight Miasionaries may well complain that they derive next to no assistance. if any, from women who should be the first to aid in setting the fallen angels on their feet As to the men, with them appeals for help are naturally more successful, though now and then one of them meets a midnight missionary with the following, which is reported as coming from one of the lately called on: Madame, I can give you no money in aid of your very worthy effort, but with your permission I will tell yon a story. Once upon a time Douglass Jerrold was visited for a subscription to the Society for the Conversion of the Jews. said he, I cannot contribute to your fund, but if you will send a Jew to me I will do my best to convert The midnight missionary heard the story, and immediately turned his attention to a more fruitful though less promising field.
