6th Eegt Vermont Militia are requested to meet at their Armory in Danville, on Saturday, Sept. 15th, at 1 oclock P. M. PURIFY THE BLOOD If the blood be pure the body which is formed from and by the blood cannot be diseased. But if there he in any pan o7 the body any affeciion, such as a boil or ulcer, even a bruise, the blood circulating through that part takes up impure matters from the local affection and carries it in'o the general system.

This is the cause often of sudden death to persons of fnll habit afflicted with boils and ulcers, and who use no medicine the matter gets into the circulating system and chokes up the fine blood vessels which supply the brain with vitality, and life ceases as if Bhreft iy Lightning. Now, this can be remedied. BRANDKETHS PILLS take all impure matters from the circulation, and sdve the genefal health, soon turing local affections alstt. BRANDRETHS P.I.Ls proteti frdm tedious times of sickness aud often save life. Sold hy all Druggists.

Sammy, my son, dont stand there scralching your head stir your stumps, or youll make no progress in life. Why, father, Ive heard you say the only way to get along in this world was to scratch ahead. There is an ice manufacturing company at Shreveport, working on the ammoniac vapor principle, which has declared dividends for three months to the 1st of eighteen per cent.

Gold in Bridgewater. Mr Angel, a merchant in Bridgewater, informs us that week before last, 1600 pounds of the quartz rock in Bridgewater were crushed in the mill, and yielded $600 worth of gold. He also spoke of masses of gold as large as a partridges egg, and a robins esq having been taken out.

A Good Confcei't. Last Monday evening, upon very short notice, the N. W. Leavitt troupe gav'e a Concert at the Methodist Chapel in this village. There was a good audience, and a first rate Concert.

Miss Emma Bailey, the well known contralto, was present, and sang grandly as ever, with her clear and deep toned voice. Mr. W. Scott Marsh and his beautiful daughter, 11a Marsh, (aged 13) were also present. Mr Marsh is a good singer and instrument player, will make innocent sport and fun anywhere, while his daughter, who has a mezzo soprano voice of great compass, is a most charming and gifted vocalist, and for one of her age, can hardly be excelled.

Little Edie, (about eight years old) is decidedly a brick. He sings well, and acts his part very well. Mr. Leavitt imself manifests all that refined musical taste and culture, for which he is so well known. He gave the Ship on Fire, with great success.

As a whole, it Was one of the best, if not the best, ballad and song Concerts we have bad here this long time. Accidents. Last week Saturday afternoon, a very serious accident occurred to Mr Nehemiah H. Page (son of Capt. Stanley Page) of this vih lage.

He Was blasting a large rock a few rods from the house, had the rock fully charged, applied the match to the cord, and retired, expecting an immediate discharge. But on account of the high wind, or for some other reason, it did not explode. He tried once or twice more, with the same result. Finally, he tried again, and while standing with his face directly over the rock, the charge exploded, and he received the whole of it in his face. His face was perfectly black with powder, his cheeks filled with particles of rock, brick and stone, and his eyes completely blinded.

He was also severely shocked and stunned, but was able to be led home Dr. Durant was immediately called, and upon examination found his eyes were in the worst condition, from which he took several pieces of stone, and he feared that he might become permanently blind. Hopes are now entertained, however, that such will not be the case, although his face is badly swollen, and especially his eyes, which he cannot yet voluntarily open, but can see some when the lids are pulled up. He is also very weak from the shock, and has to keep his bed most of the time. It was remarkable escape from death, for had the large pieces of rock been discharged upwards instead of scattering sideways, the result would probably have been fatal.

Last Tuesday almost an accident occurred to a little son of Rev. Mr Jenkins, of our village. He was driving home his fathers horse, with a wagon, from St. Johnsbury. When near the village the horse became frightened at something, running with great speed the forward wheels came off, dropping down the body of the wagon, OWING to the recent death of Mr.

County Jail. A petition will be presented to ths next Legislature, to levy a tax on the County to build a new jail at St. Johnsbury. That a new jail is necessary, there is no doubt. The present one is entirely insufficient.

We want one strong enough to hold all crimi-Ti al violaters of the law. It is a pity that at the time the splendid new Court House was erected, a more substantial jail was not built. The last Union states that at' the late Lyndon Convention the delegation from Danville designed to offer a resolution protesting against a tax on the County for the purpose of building a jail, but by some neglect the resolution was not presented. The Union further says that Danville has built one jail, and helped to build another, and she justly feels that St. Johnsbury can as well afford to build a jail on her own streets as Danville formerly could.

We think our neighbor of the Union must be misinformed as to the action of the Danville delegation, as such. We certainly heard nothing of it, nor can we find any of the delegation that did. It might have been casually mentioned, but we do not even that. We think a political meeting was the inappropriate time and place to lintroduce such a resolution. No doubt the Danville people would be glad to have St.

Johnsbury folks build the jail, but we have heard hardly a word said about it here. (Other towns in the county might wish the or at any rate, perhaps St. Johns-iburjr would be willing to contribute liberally towards it, and inasmuch as Danville has built one jail, the Legislature might ee fit to exempt her from a tax towards building another one, provided such discriminating legislation, would be legal and constitutional. Be thiB as it may, the matter is worth thinking of. Installation.
