Ti.L> we concicvc is too appar- (ent to every dairyman to need recapitula- | tion, and when the dairyman puts his band < into his well filled pocket, ho can then ask ; himself tho question, how much have my i gains been increased bv Mr. Cassweli's i efforts, nnd how has he prospored by thus ' contributing to my gains. It is not our i province to pry into Mr. Cisswell’s private affairs, but wo believe w i are q lite justified iu saying that had ho continued the legiti­ mate business in which ho was o ngaged previous to entering intn the cheese trade, his oircutnslances would have been infinite­ ly better than they are to-day, so that this should bo a double inducement to the dairy­ men, to assist in reimbursing him in a degree, for labors which, though not profit­ able to himself, have ma lo thi* dairy inter­ ests of Canada command the respect nnd attention cf the commercial world. We say then to the dairy rum, kt this testimon­ial prove your gratitude, and euc >nrago MrCasswell in prosecuting his labors in your behalf, with, if possible, increased energy. Wc shall have more to say on this sub­ject as tho work progresse s. Below we copy the latter clauses of a circular which has been sent to the dairy­ men of the province:— It is most desirable that tho contribu­ tions to the fund should be of an amountto secure a modovt horns with a quantity of land attached, such n« would make a comfortable retreat for Mr. Casswell andhis family. It is also desirable that all interested in dairying may be permitted to contribute tothis object, and no fairer plan suggnsls it­ self than that factory men ebon Id subscribe such an amount as they aro willing to eon-tribute, and that tho patrons of factories should consent to an amount equal to fifiycents perpalrou of those sending the milk• often cows aud under, and one dollar per patron of those sending the milk »f morethan ten cows to the factory, being taken from this year's silo of cheese aud contri­ buted to this object. The subscriptionsfrom each factory and patrons will be pub­ lished after all are in, and a meeting of con­tributors or their present representativeswill be called, of whiob due notice will bo given, for the purpose of approving of theselection of a home before any purchase is J concluded.

Sell Rennets as Low as S ix Cents A most important railway undertaking, I which the interests of Ingersoll are <0 larg'dy involved, ha# been, as our readers arc aware, for some months at a standstill, ‘ tho setivo work cf construction having ‘ closed, while the directors of the road are endeavoring to secure a financial basis that will enable them to proceed with tho work 1 and complete tho road to Ingersoll. Rail­ ways cannot be built without money or . | credit. Workmen, the busy toiler# that mould every great enterprise into form . must bo regularly paid. Iron, steel, lum­ ber and timber stap^p articles that make 1 np tho aggregate cest of railways cannot ’ bo purchased except for cash or nmloubted credit, and it is this element of credit that is of vital consequence to the Credit Val­ ley Railway at the present time. The whole length of tho railway and its branches is 153 miles; and will cost, when completed, about $1,099,099. Tuora have boon expended on the road $1,009,000 and the unexpended bonuses now in tho hands of tho Company amount to, iu round numbers, another $1,000,000, which leaves say $2,000,000 that have to Im pro­ vided on the credit of tho Company before tho road can bo built. Let it be remember­ ed that tho mou<*y already expended os well us that now in thr hands of the Com puny, almost wholly represents tho bonuses given to the road nnd forms no charge against its capital. Tho issue of bonds by tho Company is its legitimate Romeo of credit, and it has no powor to is­ sue these to a greater amount than $12,000 nermile. Now if tho company could sell the whole amount of its bonds at par thoy would produce within a trifle of tho $2,090- 000 needed to complete tho road, it is, however, well known that tho bond# of any rail* ay not completed or in running operation cannot be sold except at a largo discount. Tho reason of this is thnt until a year after a road has commenced to run it earns nothing by which it can p.iy tho iutcrest on its bonds, and as there can La no absolute certainty when a railway may bo completed, there is a doubt always hang­ ing over tho bonds of a road not yot fin­ ished that lends to depreciate their value fur below what they would bo were tho road in actual operation. It is because thccoin-iany wishes to hutband its credit until such time as tho road is built and run­ ning. when it may reap the benefit of tho increased value of it# bonds, that it is now seeking to make financial arrangcujcnts to build tho road without sacrificing them. In fact, it will readily appear that tho rood cannot be built at all with tho proceeds of tho bonds at tho disposal of tho company if it is compelled to slaughter them. N > man or company of mon can accomplish impossibilities, and it is simply impossible to build tho Credit Vultey Railway within any early period unless tho manieipalities lend their credit to tho road to assist it iu its financial operations. There is no doubt the company could now, if it wished, go on and build the road to Galt, remain there for a term of years, until the earnings of iho road would enable il to sell bonds to go on and complete another section, anl nfler another rest to recuperate, would eventually reach Ingersoll, nnd in time St. Thomas. But bow would this suit the interests of tho town of Ingersoll ? Can we afford tn bo waiting on Providence for |something to turn up instead of going to , work and, with tho ni<l of Providence,turning something up f»r ourselves ? Is it ’ to tho interest of our people that tho Credit 1 Valley Railway should drag out a languish- I ing existence for years, creeping slowly to ,its destination, ami without the power aud vigor to seize the present favorable oppor­tunity to complete the work cheaply nnd to t give us speedily the additional railway facii- iti< s we require. Every year the road isdelayed represent* thousands of <lollat*s of ' . loss to tho trade of Ingersoll, thousunls in rents and depreciation in the value of pro- , ’ party. Better, as Mr. Thoma# B-own■ said in bis place at tho Council, give $100,-009 than die a financial death, than that r all new enterprise# should be stifled, and <existing ones languish and decay and the < ■ town with them. As wo understand it the , Council proposes to exchange bonds with ' k the Credit Valley Railway to the amount I of $59,000 on certain conditions. Those conditions embrace somr most importantfeatures. One is that tho company shall - release certain obligations nnd concede ‘ certain right# to tho town valued at from*10,000 to $20,000. Another, that the road shall be opened for traffic from Toronto to Ingersoll by the first of October 1879, andstill another, that the road shall be com­ pleted, all except the lies, rails and station buildings, from Woodstock to Ingersoll bythe 1st of January 1878, while with the others is the absolutely safe onn that unlesstire work is completed within lha timestated the bonds of tho town lapse and beeitnovoid. By no possibility can theTown loose i‘s bonds. They must remain dormant in the hands of the trustees of the municipal trust account during the inter­val given for the completion of tho road, and if it is not built and open for traffic bythe time specified, they die and become valueless. If toe road is built aud opened for traffic at the timo stated, thenthe Town has all the benefit of railwaycompetition and $511,000 of th* bond# of the Company in exchange for a like amountof the bonds of the town. We have to ex­ press onr strong confidence in the value of the bonds of the Company. As we havestated the road, when completed, will cost about $4,000,000, and the Company La# power to issue bond* to the amount of only• 1,836.000, tbu# there is a property of *4,000,000 to secure *1,836,000 of bond*.The value of the bonds, however, asan investment depends largely on the ability of the road to earntoe interest on them and pay run­ ning expense*. The Credit ValleyRailway La* a greater number of large andimportant town* on ita Hue than *xi*t« on other purely Canadian railways of the samelength, and there mast of necessity afford a large (raffle to the road. The Wood stock and Port Dover Railway 1# nothing like #ofavorably located for troffie, pa*rea through or near but two or three town* yet ha#bevu able to pay running expense* and toi earn toe interest on its bond*.

A shrieking affair occurred on Richmond street, London, on Saturday, a few minutes after twelve o'clock. Persons passingalong Richmond street in the vicinity of tho Bank of Montreal, were startled at hearing a pistol shot. Looking to ascer­tain the cause, a mau of probably forty- three or forty-five vears of age was seen tofall, and soon ho luy weltering in a largepool of blood on the sidewalk between the Bank of Montreal and tho Merchants'Bank. It was found that the man had committed suicide by shooting himself with a Smith A Wesson revolver. Ho wasstill alive but did not survive long, and so fur ns heard he never spoke after the com­ mission of die rash act. The unfortunateman was not known to any »ne in the crowd which gathered around, but Dr.Morden happened to pass along in bisbuggy, nn l being sailed over ha recognized in the suicide bis cousin, Rev. W. E. Mor.den, of London township. Ho was dressed iu a fine dress coat, wore white kid glovesand white lie, with a vest of fancy velvet and tho rest of his nttlio in keeping. We understand thnt the deceased has been oflate canvassing for subscriptions for the building of a new church." Aid. Hi«cox bad the remains conveyed to tho City Mor­gue, where Coroner Hagerty held an inquest. As to tho causes which led to theunfortunate affair, it is hard to f.>rm any correct opinion. There can scarcely bn n' questi >n bat that the deceased was demen­ted. Ho was some years ago afflicted with a sunstroke, and since that time has at in­ tervals shown signs of mental derange­ment. These, however, passed away, and it was never supposed that they would lead to tlie commission of any such act. Anothertale is that bo had been in love with a young lady in Glencoe, and that a quarrel, so preyed upon his nif.id as to overthrowhis mental balance. His somewhat fantas­ tical dress—for a business or street costume —is cited in support of this theory. Thedeceased was well known, and had many connections in tho township of London, where he was brought np, and bis deathwould in any case ba the cause of deep sorrow—a sorrow that will bo enchanced by the sad circumstances attending his de*raise.

THE ONLY LIVING Horrible Harder.H IPPO PO TAM U S A most horrible tmirdcr was committed i near the villagu of C&alleton, ten milesLorth of Colborne, in the township of Cra- mahc, on Friday night, the 25th ult. Tho , unfortunate porson was a Miss Wade,whose parents nnd relatives reside about i three miles north of Brighton, and aro very respectable and wealthy people.The circumstances of tho case are as fol- J lows:—Miss Wade was employed as a school (teacher in tho neighborhood, and boarded iwith a family by the namo of Mallory, which consists of tho parents and several I grown up sons and daughters. One of the sons wooed and won the affections of MissWade, and by a promise of marriage sedu- ced her. This eccurrrd about four mouths ago. On the evening referred to after tea,ycting Mnllory asked Miss Wade if she would take a drive with him. She nut onher hat and shawl and went out promising •.to return in a short lims. About one o’clock in tho monriug Mallory returned to the house, awoke bis father, nnl told himthat the girl bad g >ne east on the cars, and that be himself was going west, and that be bad given her ail the money he bad, andho wauted Ins father to give him as much money as ho could spare, ns lie must go,for lie had gut into an “awful scrape.’’ Thoold mar. gave him tom', and he took a horse and buggy, and drove to C Iburne, got a ticket f >r Detroit, and when lost sceuwas on tho cars. From the evidonco given nt the inquestit appears that previous to his inviting MissWade out for a drive he had made arrange­ ments with a disreputable old wretch liv­ing in tho vilhgo, who styles himself "Dr.| Smith,who was to produce abortion. After Mallory and deceased left homo theydrove to the "Doctor’*” or some prearrang­ ed place, where she was op< ra’ed npdn, aud cut and mutilated in lha most shott­ing manner, but not being able t > accom­ plish their purpose they pat tb<» girl into a buggy and drove loma four r.r five milesaway, intending to tako her fo an accom­ plice of theirs. Finding tbr. poor creaturewould soon die they returned to Castleton,and their murdered' her, and buried tho corpse. The girl’# body was net found forseven or eight days uftcr her leaving her boarding house. Wneq discovered it wax buried in a half r.tauding petition, near,or iu a piece of bush about eighty rods fromMallory's bouse. Her clothes were all onexcept her drawers, which had been takenoff aud wrapped tightly around her head .and face. Finger mark* ware found upon her neck and throat, and also other markswere found upon her heal and face, as if a gient deal of brute force had been used, as if to stifle her cries wbilo uulorgoluj the operation.Smith, Welton and LU brother, tho last named being, it is supnosod an accessory,have been »rrs#led, and ar# now iu custody and news was reached to-day that yottnjj ;Mallory was also apprehended while stop­ping with some relatives in Smith's Cre-k Michigan.

Waring, of Newport—a prac- t cal farmer, by the way—has a paper in Scrib. ner for April, advocating a better way of country living, namely, the grouping of farm- bowaea into- village#, m is often done in Eu­ rope. He epeak# aa follow# of tho lonclinee^ ef American fans life : ft may #eem a strange doctrine to bo ad­ vanced by a somewhat enthusiastic farmer, Lut it is a doctrine that has been slowly ac­ cepted after many year#' observation—a con­ viction that ha# taken possession of an nnwil- Kug tniad—that the young man who takes his young wife to an isolated farmhouse doom# kier and himself and their children to an un­ wholesome, unsatisfactory and vacant exist­ ence—an existence marked by the absence of those more satisfying and more cultivating in­ fluences which the best development of char­ acter and intelligence demand. It is a com­ mon experience of fanners’ wives to pass week after week without exchanging a word or a look with a single person outside of their own family circles. The young conple start bravely, and with a determination to struggle against the habit of isolation which marks their class ; but this habit has grown from the necessity of the sit­ uation ; and the necessities of their own situ­ ation bring them sooner or Later within it# bounds. During the first fsw years they adhere to their resolution and go regularly to church, to the lecture, and to the social gatherings of their friends ; but home duties increase with time, and the eagerness for society grows dull •with neglect, and those who have started out with the firmest determination, to avoid the rock on which their fathers have split, give up the struggle at last and settle down to a humdrum, uninteresting and uninterested performance of daily tasks. la saying all thia—and I speak from expe­ rience, fori have led the dismal life myself— it is hardly necessary to disclaim tho least want of appreciation of the sterling qualities which have been developed in the American farm household. But it may safely be insist­ ed that these qualities have been developed, not becaus# of the American mode of farm life, but in spite of it; and as I think over the long list of admirable men and women whose acquaintance I hav# formed on distant and solitary farms. I am more and more im­ pressed with certain short-comings which (would hav# be.'D avoided under better social conditions. If any of these is disposed to question the justice of this conclusion, I am satisfied to leave the final decision with his own judgment, formed after a fair considera­ tion of what is herein suggested. If American agriculture has an unsatisfied aee'd, jt is surely the need for more intelligent and more enterprising interest on the part of its workingK'en and women. From one end • of the land to fbe other, its crying defect—re eognited'-by all—is th«t it# best blood—or, in Other worts, its best brains and its best energy -ms leaving it to seek oth,V fields of labor. The influence which lead these best of the far- nters* sons to other occupations i* not so much tho desire to make more money, or to find a less laborious occupation, *s it is the desire to lead a more satisfactory life—a life where that part of us whseEthas been’developed by the better eu ncation and better civilization for which in th. cantury wo have worked #0 hard and so well, w ay en<' rMPon»’v« compan­ionship and’ c '•coura£’D<; intercourse with .ethers. A B it to Fanwr’i cta-b. There are many things besido wheat, com and potatoes which will bring money to the farmer. We were quite eurprised, the other day, L notice at a station just over the lines, a quantity of barrels of common moss, called “Triuceee Pine." This was to be forwarded to New York ; it was sold at three dollars per barrel, and waa used by florists in making bouqueta and floral decorations. An acre of such land would yield greater returns with no cultivation whatever than an acre of wheat upon which ten daya labor had been expend­ ed. From one station in New Hampshire, we were informed several thousand barrels are annually forwarded. No country furnishes more of this mc«sr or evergreen, than Canaiiv and in the ceuntryr where there arc largo fam- iles, this could be gathered and sent to town. The price averages 7 to 8 cents per pound, and if made in wreaths for Christmas decora­ tions is sold at 5 cents per yard. AU people in towns like to surround themselves with something to remind them of the country. How eagerly would moss and wild flower* be purchased if brought to town in spring. A few years since a German procured, from Isle Jesus, a calcchc load of Pitcher Plant, which realised in Germany $3.00. Fern roots, with which our woods abound, meet with ready sole in towns. Dried grasses and flowers now form quite an important trade. One family of young ladies in a country village have be­ come quite famous for dried flowers and grasses. Then again all kinds of fungus growths are coming into use, and wiU meet with ready sole. The morcUe dried can be sent to New York or Paris, where it will bring $4.00 per pound. We have painted out *a few things by which our country readers can gain money outside of the farm. We have no donbt many things will suggest them­ selves and once a trade is commenced it will greatly increase. We know of one habitant who sends about 20 barrels of moss a year to one florist for which he receives $3.00 per bar­ rel. There are fern collectors in New Eng­ land whose sole business is to coUect and dty ferns. Several farms arc engaged in this trade, whiqh is very profitable.—Canadian Illustrated Neua. t r e OXFORD TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY. JUNE 6, 1877. The Ottawa A8 RlCULTURAL INSURANCE CO.

Legal Protest! <be O«*ry- A Mil was some tim ' ^ iafotlneod into the New York State Leg by Seuator -Starbuik, of Jefferson Co. ent,“ed : for ths protection of dairymt *a,’ e- ception and secure fair deal ’n3 “ butter and cheese." After v. 'nona_ »«»cn meats have been made, the bill j 'ror,< **’that article manufactured or sold in «“b“ncc of butter or cheese, that is not wh< 1X411 milk or cream, but into which anima. ' * ** oil enters aa a component part,4hall I * tinctly and durably labeled "Oleo-margari ’**' and that all cheese made from milk depriv of cream by skimminc, shall be labeled "Skim­ med Mdk Cheese." It is hoped that this bill will become a bw, with the neccssa-y amend­ ment noted below. It is what tho American Agriculturut has advocated for years, or from the very first appearance of ‘‘oleo margarine” . as a fratuluUnt substitute for butter, and as a (fraudulent substitute for cream in cheese. We (empnasize the word "fraddulent,” because (many interested in pawing off the substitute . upon unwitting persons, have pretended that oar objections were directed against the sub- atance itself, and not against the fraudulent ■ nee of it, and its unfair competition with pure dairy goods only. There can be no possible objection to the manufacture aud sale of oleo­ margarine in an honest way, and none against the purchase and use of it by any persons who are inclined to it as an article of food, or for preparing food. But the objection lies wholly against the sale at butler, ot something that is not butter, and wholly inferior to it in ralue, at a low price, both on tho general principle that it is a swindle of the public, and that it positively depresses the market value and deteriorates the legitimate character of butter. The dairy interest has suffered great­ ly from this fraudulent competition cf an article that cannot stand upon its own naked merits, but only when clothed in the guise of dairy butter, or full milk cheese. If people wish te buy a tub of fat, distinctly labeled **01eoinargarine,” or a box of cheese with the label "Skimmed Milk Cheese" plainly before their eyes, no harm is done to any one, and wo should bo the last to question tho pro­ priety of every penon doing M he pleases about it It io the foreign market, which opened so auspiciously for American dairy products, that has been flooded with the fraadalent butter and cheese, and the term '‘American," as applied to these false dairy goods, has become known m a brand covering • quality fit only for tho very poorest trade A vast injury Imo been done to the American dairy interest in a quarter where it win bo very difficult to counteract it and many years will hardly suffice to restore the good name of American dairy goods in A correspondent of the N.Y. Times says :— “ We wish to suggest that the kitchen garden be located in the field, and be cultivated by horse-power. No fence is necessary. In fact, a fence around a garden is a nuisance, occupying uselessly good land, impeding the facilities for labor, and furnishing a refngo for weeds. Besides, the garden should not oc­ cupy continuously for a scries of years the same site. It is a great deal better that its 1 icatiou should be changed occasionally, so m to secure a fresh soil. By a judicious use of a variety of manures the old garden may be kept productive ; but it requires more skill and a greater outlay than most fanners are willing to bestow upon it to keep a garden up to the lightest point of productiveness for a score of years. The asparagus bed must have 'a fixed habitation, and some of the smaller fruits usually cultivated in the garden—such as currants, raspberries, gooseberries, etc.— are not easily changed. The asparagus bed we should keep on the same spot indefinitely, for the shoots from an old bed wc have found, under proper cultivation, to be more vigorous than from a new one. We are now cropping asparagus from the same roots which supplied the tables of our progenitors. With an an­ nual top-dressing of compost they continue to yield bountifully. The smaller fruits might possibly, under the same treatment, continue to thrive indefinitely ; but it would be ncccr- ■ary to cut out the old, mossy stems and be­ stow an amount of labor upon their cultiva- t on which is entirely’ unnecessary in the care of asparagus. So far as our observation goes, it is more profitable to renew the roots and occasionally change the site of the fruits. And u for melons and vines of all kinds, potatoes, beets, etc., everybody knows that they flourish best on a fresh soil With no fence around the garden, its site may as easily be changed as the site of any field crop. ” Whatever taste may decide about tho flower garden, common sense demands that the vegetable gardens should be simple. Vegetables are plain every-day affairs, raised for comfort and profit, not for show, and the culture of them should be of the simplest and mart economical kind." At Mie late convention of Shorthorn breeders in Kan Mr. John Moler, of Anderson county, .’a that state, in an address dwelt upon the v.tiuc of grades and their advantage over common stock. He gave the following instances of his own experience : Last winter he- atall-fed forty head of thro.'? year old steers. Thirty of them were half Durham, or what w<* c-all grades. Ten of them were good common ste.’^rs of native stoek, and of a good average quality. They were all fed on the same, and together, .wl fared cracUy alike. He commenced feeding in Noverirber, and before feeding had all weighed separate, ly. And again, after feeding was over and cattle ready for market had all weighed sep- eratcly. The native steers gained on a» ar. erage 290 pounds to the head daring the fend­ ing. The grades gained to the head an aver­ age of 490 pounds, which satisfied him that blood will tell.

Carew, her little daughter and maid had just arrivsJ. Avoiding a presentation, she proceeded atuoce to the ‘•Rehearsal," anti dismissed the« wnage, nssirfjjtiR Farley that it was wrong I Xcu ®ro to keen the horses out in such inclement M’nnie. weather; and ns she was provided with •‘ waterproof,” overshoes, aud umbrella,“ wonn)> walk home. ■ The musical excercises were unasu Uy tedious, the choruses were halting aud nn- even, and the repetitious seemed endless.The daj' darkened, aud the great bronzechandeliers were lighted, and still Profes­sor Hnrtzel mercil.’ssly flourished bis Laton and required new trials ; until at J?ngth feverously impatient, Regina, havings itisfactorily rendered her eolos, requested a id received permission to retire.It was almost four o’clock, the hoar des. ignatad for her meeting, when she envel­ oped herself in her waterproof cloak, drew the hood over her hat, and almost ran forseveral squares from Mrs. Brompton’s to­ ward a line of street cars which would con­ vey her to the vicinity of tho Park. Shosucceeded iu meeting an upward-bound car entered, and breathed more freely. It was quite crowded, and fotced to standttp, R* *ina steadied herself by one of the leathern straps suspended from the roof.Athorsfle was an elderly genii .'man withvery white hair, eyebrows, and moustache, who was muffled in a heavy overcoat, and leaned upon a gold-headed cauo. Soonafter, another passenger pressed in, elbowed his way forward, and touching tho old gentleman exclaimed ;* Col. Tichnor—in America 1 And above all in a street carl When did you ar­rive?’ ‘ Lut week. These cars are too de­ mocratic for men with gonty feet; but I dislike to bring my horses out in suchWeather.

He is striding upward in his profession, andyou know thero is no limit to his ambition. Hitherto he has cautiously steered clear of politics, but it is rumored that a certaincaucus will , probably tender him the nomination for— Here a child close to Regina cried out soshaiply, that she could not hear several sentences; and when quiet was restored,the young gentleman was saying :‘ Very true—there is no accounting for taste. It does appear queer that afterliving a bachelor so long, bo should nt last surrender to a widow. But, my dear Sir, she is a perfect Circe, and I suspect thoseimmense estates in Cuba and Jamaica are quite as potential with Palma, ns her other undeniable charms. Last night ns ho pro­menaded with her, it was conceded that 4 they were tho handsomest' couple in the room ; and Mrs. Grundy hns patted themon the head, and bestowed tho approved, ‘Heaven bless you, my children,’ Palmais the proudest man in—’ ’ Here is tny street. Good-day, Ringold.’ The elderly gentleman left tho car, nndafter awhile the yonng man also departed ; but there seemed no diminution of tho crowd, and as tho track was heavy withdrifting snow, the horses moved slowly. Atlast they readied a ppint where tho hno of road turned away from the direction in which Regina desired to go, nnd quittingthe car, she walked down East------Street. After tho heated atmosphere sho hnJjust felt, th* sharp biting cold was refresh, ing, and against the glistening needles of snow she pressed rapidly on, until finally th* tree* in the Square gladdened herayes. Near one qf tho corners, stood a large elosa carriage, whose driver was envelopedin a cloak, and protected by an umbrella, while the yellow silk inside curtains were drawn dowaover the windows.Agitated by contending emotions of reluctance to meeting the man whose pre-•enee was so painful,—and of dread lest ho had grown impatient, and might presentLinuelf to her guardian, Hegins hastenediuto the Square, and looked eagerly about th* deserted walks.Pressed against tho south side of a leaf­ less tree whose trunk partly shielded him from the driving show, laden north-eastwind, Peleg Peterson stood watching her, ' —and as she approached, ha came for­ward. B ' Better late than never. How long did you expect me to wait here, with the coldsating into my vitals ?' • Indeed I am very sorry, but I could not some a moment repner.' • Who is in that carriage yonder ?’* I do not know.

Now Sir—good-by.Turnirg, she ran swiftly away, aud glanced over her shoulder fearful of pur­ suit, but tho figure stood whoro she hadleft him; was oecupied in counting the money—and breathing mere freely. Regina shook tho«suow from hor wrappings, fromher umbrella, and walksd homeward. Hud sho purchased a sufficient reprieveto keep him quiet, until sho could hem- fromher mother, nnd receive the expected sum­ mons to join her ? Or was this bnt au il­lusive relief, a inoro momentary lull iu tho tempest of humiliation that was muttering aud darkening around her ?Sho had walked only a short distance from the square, nnd was turning a corner, when she i an against a gentleman hurry­ing from the opposite direction. ‘ Pray pardon me. Miss." Sho could not supprcs3 tho cry that brokefrom her lips. ‘ He turned, as though ho had not until now recognized her, but thero was uo sur­prise iu his stem fixed faoo. • I thought Mrs. Brompton resided on , West---------Street; had not heard of herchange of residence. From tho length of your rehearsal you certainly should be per­ fect in your performance. It is now half- ,past five, and I think you told mo you , commenced at ono ? Rather disagreeable weather for you to bo out. Wait hero,under this awning, till I come back.’ , Ho whs absent not more than five min- i utes, and returned with a close carriage ;but a glance sufficed to show her it was not the one sliOjbad seen in tho neighbor i hood of tho square.As ho opened tho door nnd beckoned i her forward, ho took hor umbrella, han lod her in, and with ono koeu cold look iutoher face, said : i ’ I trust my ward’s dinner toilette will (bo nn improvement upon hor present np- pcnrauco, as several guests have boon in- | vited. The Cantata must have bore J you ,immensely." j Ho bowed, closed the door, directed tho driver to tho number of his residouce onFifth Avonue, and disappeared. Sinking down in ono corner, Itejina shut , her eyes and groa red. Could his presencehave been ac.-idon’tal ? Sho hud give.r no ; ono a cluo to her movements, nnd how | could ho have followed her circuitousroute after leaving Mrs. Bromptou's ?

Just now, (unwelcome ns was tbo task, fhs dare 1 not < neglect it, fur her absonco might stimulate the investigation she so much dreaded, aud ]wearily sho rose and bog in hor toitette. | At half-past seven Hattie entered. ,‘ Aren’t you ready Miss ?

I cau tell you vhat you do Ieoh like,—more than ever I saw you before;—that marble figure ;with the dove on its finger,*which stands in the front parlor bay window." It was Mr. Palma’s pot poico of sculpture—a siatno of “innocence*.* originally inten­ ded for his library, but Mrs. Palma had pleaded for permission to exhibit it down­stairs. During Regina's residence in New York scarcely a week elapsed without her meet­ing guests at Ute dinner-table, and tbo fre­ quency of the occurrence had quit) worn away the awkward shyness with which shehad at first efinfronted strangers. Yet to­ day she felt nervously timid as she ap­ proached the threshold ef the brilliant roomaud caught a glimpse of those within. Two gentleman stood on the rug talkingwith Olga, a third was on the sofa, engagedin conversation with Mrs, Palme, whi’e Mrs. St. Clare and her daughter entertain­ed two strangers in the opposite corner,— aud on a tete-a-tete drawn conspicuously forward under the chandelier, wer* Mr.Palma and Mrs. Carew. Begins merely glanced at Olga long enough to observe how handsome she sp-Ceared, in her rose-hue silk, with its rich lack lace garniture, aud the spray ofcrushed pink roses drooping agaiutt herDeck,—then her gaze dwelt upen the wo- man under the chandelier.UnusnaUy tall and nroportionatrly de­ veloped. hsr size might have been pro­ nounced heroic, and Would by comparisonhavs dwarfod a man of less commanding stature than Mr. Palma ; yet se symmetri­cal was the outline of faee and figure, that the type seemed well nigh faultless, and She might have served as a large-limbedrounded mad*4 for those majestic women from Buonartio painted for the admirationof all humanity upon the walla of the Sis­tine. Ths fao* was oval, with a remarkablylow but full brow, a straight finely eut nose very wide between the eyes, winch war*larg*. almond.shapsd, and ef a singularly radiant graj, with long curling gold-tintod lashes. Hsr oomplsxlon was of that pecu­liar creamy colorleesnesB, which is found in the smooth petals of a magnolia, and th* lips were onthnsd in bright earmine thathinted al chemical combinatiou so rip* and luacfooa was the tintHad *hs already stepped down from some glortou* old Venetian picture, bring­ ing that erown of hair.—of ths tru*‘-!»um- pile that it iMtnsd * flossy heap of rawsilk,—or had all* by som* subtle stroke of skill discovered the secret of that beautifnl artificial coloring, which was so succesalul-ly practised in the daye of Giorgione ? Her drees was velvet, of that light lilactint which ouly perfect complexions dare approach,—was out very low and square in front, and trimmed wiib a profusion ofgossamer white lace. Diamonds flashed on her neck and arms, an 1 in tho centre of the puffed and erimpled hair, a large but­terfly of diamonds scattered light upon the yellow m*ss.Mr. Palma was smiling nt some low spo­ ken sentence that rippled like Italian poet­ ry over her full lips,—when bis eye detec­ted tho figure hovering near the door, aud at once ha advanced aud draw hor in. Without taking hor hand, his fingers justi touched her sleeve, aud walking beside her ‘ ha said :•Mis. Carew must allow me the pleasure p of presenting my ward Miss Orme, who has most unpprdonably detained us fromour sonp.’ The stranger smiled and offered herhand. 1 Ah, Miss Ormo 1 I shall never pardon you for stealing tho only heart, whosoloyalty I claim. My little Llora saw you at Mrs. Biompton’s, heard you sing, and was enchanted with your eyes—which shoassured mo wore—‘blue as tho sky, ma mere, and like violets with black lace quil­ led round thorn.* * ,Regina barely touched tho ivory hand encrusted with costly jewels, anil Mr. Palma drew hor Lear a sofa, whore sat anoble-looking elderly gontlsma.ii, slightly bald, and whoso ample beard and long mous'arlio were snow white, although hi*eyebrows were black, aud bis fine brown eyes sparkled with fire aud enthusiasm of youth.‘ My ward, Misi Ormo, Uns a juvenile reverenco for Congrossinm, whom, know­ ing only historically, she fondly considersabove and beyond tho common clay of mankind—regards them as the worthy successors of tho Roman Patrce Conscripli,and in the Honorable Mr. Chesley, she is doubtless destined to realized all her roman­ tic ideas relative to American Statesmen.Regina, Mr. Chesley represents C diforaia in tbo council of the nation, and can toll yon all about those wonderful canons, ofwhich you woro speaking last week.’ Tbo guest took her fingers, shook themcordially, aud, looking into bio fi-io face,tho girl felt a sudden thrill run through hor frame. What was there in the soft brown eyes, and shape of the brow thatwas so f im liar—that male her heart boat so fiercely ?Mechanically eho sat down near him, (ailing to answer som* trivial question from Mrs. Palma, and bowing iu an abiont pre­occupied manner to the remainder of theguests. Fortunately, dinner was annoinesd im­mediately, and as Mrs. Palma m >vod away on Mr. Chesley"s arm, while Mr. Pnlin.i gave his to Mrs. Carew, Regina felt » coldbaud seize hers, aud lea 1 her forward. ‘ Mr. Roscoe, where did you secret your­ self? I was not aware that you were iutho room.* • Standing near tho window, watchin g yon bow to every ono else. Your guardianrequested me to hand you in to dinner." Something in his voice and manner an­ noyed her, uni looking up, sho said cold­ ly :• My guardian is very kind ; bnt I regret that his consideration in providing m» anescort, hastaxed your courtesy so severely." Before ho could reply, they bad reached the table, and, glancing at tho card attach­ed to tho bouquet at each plate, Regina found her chair had been placed next to Mr. Chosley’s, while Olga was hor vie-a-vis. ’ If I ask yon n question, will yon an­swer truly?" said Elliott. ‘ That depends entirely upon what it may prove. If a proper one, I shall answer it(rifly ; otherwise, not at all." • Was it of your own free will, without advico or bias, that you refused tho inter­view I asked you to grant mo ?’ • It wot." ‘ My cou in influenced you adversely ?"• No, Sir." • H j is purely selfish in his course toward • At least it is ungrateful and unbecom­ ing in you to accuse him, aud I will not hear you.’Shs turncd her face toward Mr. Chesley, who was carrying on au animated conver­ sation with Mrs. Polina, and some mo­ments elapsed baforo Elliott returned. ‘ R urina I must sec you alone, soma- time this evening." • Why ?’‘ To demand an explanation of what I have scan and heard, otherwise I have no credit."• I have no explanation to offer on the subject. If you refer to a conversation which Mr. Palma had with me yesterday,at your request, let mo say, once for nil, that I eannot consent to its revival. Mr.Roscoe, we are good friends now, I hope ;but wo should be such no longer, if you persist iu violating my wishes in this matter.*• What I wish to say to you involves your own safety and happiness,’ • I am grateful for your kind intentions,but they result from an erroneous impres­ sion. My individual welfare is bound up with those whom you know not, and at allevents I prefer not to discuss it.* • Yon refuse mo tho privilege of a confi­ dential talk with you ?’• Yes, Mr. Roscoe. Now bo pleasant, and lol us converse on somo mere agree­ able topi^. Did you ever meet Mrs. Carowuntil to-day?’Ho was too angry to reply immediately-;but after a little while mustered his indig­ nation.• I have tho pleasure of knowing Mrs. Carew quite well.'■ Sho i» remarkably beautiful.' ‘Oh, unquestionably! And she knows it better than any other article in horersed.Nsw York is spoiling hor dreadfully.* He turned and addressed some remarks to Miss. St. Clare, who Baton his right, andRegina rejoiced in tho opportunity afforded her of becoming a quiet observer and lis­ tener. She had never seen hor guardian s >animated, so handsoms as now, white he smiled genially and talked with bis lovely guest; and watching them, Regina recobleated the remark concerning their appear­ ance, which had been made by the gentle-men in the ear. Was it possible that after all, the law­ yer"* heart had been seriously interested ?Could that stain-cheeked, grsy-eyed Circe, with pale yellow hair anl lashes, hold him in silken bonds at her f*et ? The idea thathe could be captivated by any woman stem- ed utterly incompatible with all that hisward knew of his Ute and character, and it had appeared an established fact that he was incapable of any tender emotion ; bntcertainly at this instant, the expression with which he was gazing down into Mrs. Carew’s lotos face was earnestly admiring.While Regina watched the pair a cold sen­ sation crept over her, as on some mild star­lit night, one suddenly and unconsciously drifts under the tea of some vast, alow-sail­ ing ic»-berg, and knows not, dreams not ofdanger until smitten with the fatal pro­ phetic skill. Suppose the ambitious middle-aged manintended to marry this wealthy, pelted, lovely widow, was it net in all respects abrilliant suitable match, which U beaw eaend* would cordially appland ? Wasthere a possibility that she would declin* au alliance with that proud patricsn, who** furor* seemed d scaling ?In birth, fortune and beauty oonldh* find her superior ? Th* flowers m ths tall gold rper/M inthe eentr* of the tabte, and ths wreath of scarlet eamsliai that swung down lo meet them from the greeadbrense chandelier, be­gan to donee a saraband. Silver, crystal, chins,—even th* faamsn figures appearedwhirling in a misty eirel* ick m which th* orange, *m*rald, nod bine tints of the hock grasped and drained n goblet of iced waterand after a while tho mist rolled away, and . she heard once more tho voices that had ■ ndvor for an instance ceased their utteran­ces. ■•» i The shuttlecock of conversation was well> kept uji, from all si lea of the table, andi when Regina’a thoughts crept back firm [ their nnnib»riug reverie, Mr. Chealey waseloquently describing sornt of tho invat- f picturesque localities iu Oregon and Ca i fornia.i Across the labia fl >atcd a liquid rer- ponao.•' I saw in Philadelphia a large p inling of that particular spot, and though not re­ markably well dona, it enables one to f rman approximate idea of the grandeur of the scenery.'Mr. Chesley bowed to Mrs. Care, and an­swered : * I met the artist while upon his scotch­ing tower, and w >s deeply interested in Lis success. At one tim-', I Lop?d he would cast m ilriiu ni l anchor in Sun Francis io.aud rem tin am >ng us but his fickle fair one deserted him for a young naval offio> rand after her miTing", Calif.iruia possessed few charm: for him.

Curow spoke, and marveled at the culm deference, the emiliug intouancewith which her hazel eyas rested on thespeaker. Tnen they wandered as it acci­ dentally to the conutonnnco of Mr. Raima, and a lambent flame seemed to kindle i.itheir brown depths. ‘ Mr. Eggleston has talent *nd I am sur­prised that ho has not boon more success­ ful,' replied the Congressman. Mr. Palms was pressing Mrs. St. Clareto take, more wino, and appeared deaf to tho conversation, but Mrs. Carew's flute­ like veice rcspon led :‘ Yes, a certain o.-Jor of talent for mere landscape painting ; but ho shou'd novir attempt a higher or difTirent stylo. Homade a wrolchod copy of tho crucifition, for n wealthy retired tailor, who boasts of bis investments in “virtue and bigotry,’"—and I fear I gave moral offence by ventur­ ing to say to tbo owner, that it reminded me of the criticism of Lui i do Vargas on asimiliar failure : “mothioks ho is saying, Fo give thorn Lord, for they know notwhat they do." ’ ' Apropos ! of pictures. Mrs. Carew I must anaugo to have you see a superb nowpainting recently hnnz upon tho wall at the ‘ Century,’ and ask your opinion of itsmerit------' Regina did not catch tho remainder ofher guardian's sentence, which sho felt as­ sured was intended to divert tbo conversa­ tion and shield Olga,—for just then, Mr.Chesley asked to fill her glass, and tho talk drifted away to less dangorons topics. Irresistibly attracted by sumo subtlecharm hi his mauuer, sho found hersod drawn into a pleasant dialogue with him.relative to some startling incidents wine: ho narrated of tho early minors in the far West. Watching his face, sho puzzled hirbrain with the solution of tho singular fami­ liarity it possessed. Sho had never mot him until to-day, and yet her heart warm­ed toward him more and more. At length sho ven'urod the question ; • Did you leave your family in Cali- 1 tomia ?' i ‘ Unfortunately I have no family, and no relatives. My dear young lady is it notmelancholy to find a c mfirmod old bachc- 1 lor, verging fast upon decrepitude—with I no one to look after or care tor him ? (When I was a good-looking young beau, and should have b*en hunting mo a bonny < blue-eyed bride, I was digging gold from 1the rocky ribs of mountains in Western solitudes. When 1 made my fortune, I i discovered too late that I had given mv 'youth in exchange. ‘ 1 ' I should think, sir, that you might still < marry, and bo very happy."His low, pleasant laugh did not in the least embarrass her, and ho answered : 1 ■ ‘ You are very kind to kindle that beaeon >of encouragement, hut I four your oharit- < able disposition clouds your judgment. Do you imagine any fair girl could brave my igrey hair aud wrinkles ?" t ‘ A young girl would not suit you, sir ; ’ but there m ist bo noble middle-aged ladies ’whom you could admire, aud trust, and ' love ?’ H» bant his white head, and whispered : i ‘ Such for instanoo as .Mrs. Carew, whoconverts all places into Ogygia ?’ i Without lifting her eyes, sho merely I shook her head, and he continued : i‘ Miss Ormn, all man have their roseleaf I romance. Mine expanded very early, but i fate crumpled,—crushed it into a shapeless Iruin,—and leaving the wreck behind m*.I went to tbo wikis of California. Since 1 then, I have missed tho humaniz.iny inila- 1 euce of homo tics, of feminine association ; 1but as I look down tho hill, where tho sun I of my life is casting long shadows, 1 some­times feel that it would bo a great blessing, < had I a sister, cousin, nie**, or oven an i adopted daughter, whom I could love and 1 lean upon iu my lonely old ago. Once I iseriously entertianod tho thought of select- I ing an orphan ont of some asylum, aud < adopting her into my heart and homo." i‘ When you do, I sincerly hope sho may i prove all that yon wish, and faithfully re- ; quite your goodness."She spoke so earnestly that he smiled, and added : i ‘ Can you recommend one to ma ? I envy Palma his guardianship, aad if 1should find a young girl like you I should i not hositateto solicit------' Pardon me, Mr. Chesley, but Mr. Palma 1 is endeavoring to attract your notice," saidMrs. Palma. i The host held in his hand an envelope.‘ A telegram for you. Shall I direct thebearer to wait ?’• With your permission, I will examine Having glanced at the lines, he turned. the sheet of paper over, aud with a pencil wrote a few word* ; then handed it to Terry, requesting him to direct the bear r to havethe answer promptly telegraphed. • Nothing unpleasant, I trust?" Said Mr.Palma. ‘ Thank yon—no. Only a summons which obliges me to curtail my visit, andreturn to Washington by the midnight train.' Interpreting a look from her stepson,Mrs. Palma hastened the slow course of the dinner, by a whisper to the waiter be­hind her chair; and as she asked somo questions relative to mutual friends in Washington, Regina had no opportunityof renewing the conversation. Mr. Roscoe was muiduons in his atten­ tion* to Miss St. Clare, and Regina lookedover at Olga, who w m talking very learn­ edly to a small gentleman, a prominent and erudite scientist, whose knitted eye­brows now and then indicated dissatisfac­ tion with her careless manner of handlinghis pat theories. Her cheeks glowed, her eyes sparkled,and a teasing smile sat upon her lips, as she recklessly rolled her irreverent ball among his technical ten pins *, and repeateddefiantly : r Princess of the South Pacific, allowed to re-1 gale myself with croquettes ot human I brains, or a ragout of baby'^ ear# andhands, well flavored with wine and lemon, I accept civilization. I believeLULina is I the best placo for the successful testing oyour tliejiy, for there, the unfittest have i for emturies been destroyed ; yet I havei m t heard ihtt the superior—the ‘ComingRe" — has appeared atnung the tea fam'?’E erating Ins vuico the small gentleman apn a ed to his host. * I thought Mr. Palma too zealous adisciple of M ><lern Science, to permit Miss Neville to indulge such flegrant heresi< a.She has absolutely denied lh»t the mental development of a horse, a dog, or ape is strictly analogous to that of man—*‘ Quote mo correctly, I pray yon doctor —to that of women—if you please,’ inter­rupted Olga. ‘ She believes that it is not a difference of dcgrio (which we know to bo th* case),but of kind; not comparative, but structural —you understand. How cun you tolerate such schism in your household ? More­over sho scouts the great Spencerian organon?‘ Olga is too astute not to discover tho discrepancy between the theoiy of Scient­ ists, and tho nsages of civilized society,whose sanitary provisions thwart and neutralize your law in its operations npon the human race. ‘Those whom it savesfrom dying prematurely, it preserves tn propagato dismal and imperfect lives. In our complicated modern communities, araco is being run between moral and mental enlightenment; aud tho deteriora­ tion of the physical and moral constitutionthrough tho defeasance of the law of Natural Selection? Lifting her champagne glues, Olga sip­ped the amber bubbles from its brim, nnd slightly bent her head iu acknowledge-tueut. ‘ Thinks. I disclaim any dmibt of tho accuracy of his pedigree from tho monad,—through tho ape,—up to tho present erudite philosopher; but I humbly crave permission to assert a far different lineagefor myself. Pr.iy Doctor, train j’our bat­tery now upon Mr. Talma, and since he assails yon with Greg, minus quotationmirks, require him to avow his real senti­ ments concerning that sontence in *D« Profundis? ‘That purely political con-cnptiuH of rdigiou which regards the Ten Com naudmonts as a sort of 'cheap defence" of property nnd life. God Al­mighty ai au ubiquitous and unpaidPoliceman, and Hell ns a self-supporting jail, a penal settlement nt the Antipodes!’Prudent Mrs. Palma rose at that moment, and the party left the dining-room. Mrs. St. Clare culled Regina to her sofa,to make some inqniiiea about tho Cantata, and when the latter was released, she haw that both Mr. Cheslay aud Mr. Palma wereabsent. A half hour elapsed, during which Olga continue ! to annoy tho learned small manwith hor irreverent flippancy, and Mrs. Carew seemed to fascinate tbo two gentle­ men who hovered about her, like eagermoths around a lamp. Then tho host and Congressman como together, and Reginn saw her guardian crocs tho room, andmurmur something to his fair client, whosmilingly assented. Mr. Chesley looked nt the widow, nnd atOlga, and his eyes camo back, end dwelt upon the young girl who stood leaning against Mrs. Palma’s chair.Iler dress was a pearl white alpaca, with uo trimming, save tullo ruchings at throat and wrists,—aul a few violets fasten­ ed iq the cameo Pi-ycho that constitutedher brooch. Pure, pale, almost sad, sho looked in that brilliant drawing-room like somefragile snow-drop, astray in a bed of gor- geousp >onics nnd poppies.Lifting her eyes to her host, a« he leaned over tho back of her sofa, Mrs. Carewsaid : ‘ Miss Ortno poses almost faultlessly :she has evidently studied all the rules of tho art. Quito pretty too ; nnd her hairhas a pocu'i.ir gloss, tln.t reminds in* of tho pounded peaeh-stmes, with which Van Dyck glazed h;s piclnros? The fingers of tho hand which hung nthis side, clenched suddenly, but adjust­ ing his glasses more firmly, he said veryquietly : ‘ My ward is not quite herself this even­ ing, and is roally too unwell to bo down stairs ; but appeared at dinner in honor ofyour presence, nnd in deference to my wishes. Shall I ring for your wrappings"? Tho carriage is waiting?‘ When I have kissed my cherub good­night, I shall bo ready." Ho gave her his arm, to the foot of tho stairs, nnd returning, announced his regrotthat Mrs. Carow was pledged to show hor- self at a party, to which ho had promised to esoort her. Whereupon tho other ladiesremo nbered that they also had promised to be presont. Mr. Chesloy standing at como distance,had boon very attentively studying Regina’s face, an<l now approaching hor took her hand with a certain tender cjurlosy, thattouched her strangely. “ My dear Miss Ormo, I think wo are destined to become firm fast friends, andwere I not compelled to hurry back to Washington to opposo a certain bill, I should endeavor to improve our acquain­ tance. Before long I rhall see you again,nnd moanwhile you must help ms to find an adopted daughter as ranch like yourselfas possible,—or I shall be tempted to steal you from Palma. Gjod-by. God bless you? • Good-bye—Sir. I hope -wo shall mootlignin? ‘ You may be sura we shall? He leaned down, and as ho looked al horsho saw his mouth tremble. A wild conjecture flashed across horbrain, and her hand clmched his spas­ modically, white hor heart seemid to stand still. Was Mr. Chesley her father ?Before she conld collect her thoughts, he turned away and loft tho room, accom­ panied by Mr. Palma, who duri ig the evn-ing had not once glanced towsr 1 her.

Deceased catno to Wood- stock with bis father shortly after the close of the war of 1812, and has resided in the vicinity of the town some sixty years. He was born in Richelieu, Quebec, in the year18oV. In 1834 he was married to the eldest daughter of the late Dr. S. H. Perry, who died about 14 years ago. Ho leaves a second wife and four children.

LrTEn.utY.--On last Friday evening a very pleasant literary and musical enter­ tainment was given in the Y. M. C. A. rooms. The readers were—Mr. Charles E. Chadwick, Rev. A. Burner nnd Rev. II. T. Crossley. Among the musical pereformers were—Miss Barrett, Miss Christopher, Mr. Harris, Mr. Goo. Williams, Mr. Root a?’d Mr. Johnson. Both readings and music were highly creditable to tho performers.We are pleased to learn that arrangements are being completed to hold a similar enter­ tainment every week, on Wednesday even­rings. Too much cannot bo said in fiiv-.r of such enterprises. While they tend to de- velopo local talent in this direction, they, atthe same time, cultivate a tasto for litera­ ture nnd music. Both young nnd oldshould encourage such praiseworthy efforts. There is an interesting programme for to- flrc at Hi. Elgin, On Thursday night about 10.15 flames were discovered issuing from the roof near tho chimney of tho building owned by James Stevens and occupied by Thos. Wood ns a dry goods store.

Ingersoll has many manufacturing estab lishments of note which are a source of wealth to tho town, and do much to give it note for perseverance and enterprise amongst its Neighbors, an.1 of all these in- I dustries perhaps there is nono more note­ worthy than that of Geo.

This cstab- ishment which is as largo ns any other two in tho County, turns out on nu average form 250 to 800 vehicle.', o year of n net value of from 330,000 to 385,000. Twenty- five to thirty hands aro employed constant­ ly throughout the year, nnd as nono but tho most skilful workman nro employe ! and tho very best material used, the busi­ ness increases yeat by year.
