We have received the splendid engraving to
which advance paying subscribers to The 9TH vol
umo are entitled gratis. 1t is very large and
highly finished picture, embracing portraits of the
Duke of Wellington and Lord Nelson, and would
hardly be valued at less than the subscription price
Of the Anglo American. OF the paper need
only say, as we have often said that it is Just the
thing for every body who desires acquaintance with
British literature, and the leading points of British
politics. We are authorized to receive new sub
scriptions and payments on the present volume.
Popular Lectures on Science and Art, by Diony-
sius Lardner: New York, Greedy u McElrath.
The concluding number has been published-in
all II numbers at 25 cents each, forming two &C.
tavo volumes of about 600 pages each. We know
of no work upon the sciences so admirably adapted
to the family fire-sde. The young, especially will
derive from it large store of information in phi
osophy and mechanics; but what Is more valuable
still, taste for valuable studies and habit Of con-
templating the stupendous works of God to some
purpose. The work is elegantly printed.
o. We have received number eleven of the
Treasury of History, introducing the history of
America, edited by John Inman, Esq, of New York

0jS Young Potter has been executed at Ne,
Haven for the murder of Osborn. He confesse
his crime, and in the most feeling manner warne
young men to avoid houses of drunkenness and i'll
fame. These ruined him, in spite of the instruc
tions and warnings of pious parents.

mittcd the crime, had he known that death woul
be the penalty.
o. If the British Tariff is half as good as tn

WHO DESIRES HEALTH AND COMFORT
Probably every body in this region; and so W
earnestly edvise every body to patronze Mr.. Friz
zle's bathing establishment, near the South end {
the Arch Bridge. He has rooms well fitted up fc
both ladies and gentlemen, and you can, at an
time command warm or cold baths, shower baths
or the douche-always from the purest water, rres
from the spring. Mr.. +. has done, and is doing
his partNvell, and deserves liberal patronage. w
hope he will be well sustained, and feel sure tina
his patrons will find themselves well repaid by tn
health and comfort which regular and frequer
bathing is adapted to secure.

RIGHT, FOR ONcE,-Tho Green Mountain Free

II ic inst The Whirs fro for leeni,,
white men from becoming Siares, and for liberatin
the black slaves too, by the Of every constilr
tional means that promises success For this rct
son they went against Texas and are for abollshin
slavery in the District Of Columbia, and did not g
for Birney, who said he preferred the election
Polk rather than Clay. And when the Freeman
"liberty party" will do such things go straigl
forward for checking slavery, and keeping whit
men from bondage to the South, then they will o

Many OF them would do this but for the rotten loco

judgments are with the Wings Caledonian
There is one point in which the Tariff bill {
1912 should be amended Said Bill provides thu
coarse wool only Of the value of cents and undt
per pound shall be admitted at the low duty, an
all other wool, and coarse wool too, that has fin
mixed with it, or fine with dirt in il to make it
less value than cents, shall pay the highest dut,
The amendment is this: the law should make tn
disregard OF It's provisions by Folks ohcers OF Gus
toms State Prison offence This would cut o
the importation of every pound of wool that woul
interfere with our Vermont WOOL Cdiedonian.
