DREADFUL COLLISION AT SEA-A VESSEL.

A letter from Captain James Goldman, jr., of the
ship Sarah Parker, at New York, from Singapore to
the owners in Boston, gives the frghtful intelligence
of having come in contact with brig on her pas

immediate loss, with all on board. We copy below

Heyl's majority

Heyrs majority 81
The bitter personal malgnlty of the absquauators
against Mr.. Gilbert, had no bounds and we feared,
from what we learned, the and morning Of
the election, that they might have produced eff
feet among democratic fir ends, but the result
proves otherwise,-lS96 was the highest vote ever
given by the democrats in contested election in this
county before--the vote is over 1000, and two
townships giving over 100 democratic votes TO come
in yet. We have many good things to say of the
noble and glorious democracy in Franklin.

AMERICAN ALMANAC.
Published by Darid II. Williams, Boston, Massachusetts

awe pay just tribute 10 literary merit and at
the same time regard the best interests Of the COM
munity in recommending the American Almanac -
We scarcely know of book containing much
useful information. Indeed a library would not be
reckoned complete, for who takes interest in
such subjects, that did not contain it, II he TO
look to other sources for what may be found here,
the probability is that he would have to examine not
less than fifty volumes. Besides, there has been an
accuracy in the American Almanac, from its first
publication, which makes it good authority TO the
student and the politician. We therefore advise
every one who has library to add this to it, if he
has not already done so; and every who is begin
ming TO form library, to let the American Almanac
be one Of his first selections. In family it will af-
ford information to its members worth FIVE times its
cost Every literary, scientific and business in
the country should possess a copy"
