HARD TO BEAr.-The best thing we have
heard of antiquarian is told Of William T.
Goodwin, ESQ, of Concord, n. H.. who is ac-
knowledged to be the greatest antiquarian in
New England. Mr.. q. in order to add another
valuable volume of legal lore to his already
we'll stocked library, is engaged in hunting up
copies of the celebrated criminal trials that
have taken place in the State of New Hamp-
shire. Observing in catalogue of books issued
by an old and distinguished publishing house
in New York, that a copy Of trial he was in
search of, was for sale, Mr.. G.. Immediately
wrote to the firm requesting them to forward it
to him. By due course of mail he received a
letter informing him that the copy Of the trial
he desired, had been sold, but that they would
procure another copy for him, and that their
business was so extensive both in this country
and in Europe, that they could furnish him
with q copy Of any trial he might desire. Mr..
q. having been placed in the same position
several times by attempting to purchase cata-
logue books with the prices annexed, wrote
back the following short but pithy note 8"
CONCORD, n. H., July 2, 1859.

hand. Be kind enough to procure for me, as

INvALIDs REyoIcE.-A new era is taking
place in the science of medicine The time
has come when the worst and most appall-
ing cases of disease can be cured. New
discoveries are being made in the medicinal
agents employed, as well as in the art OF
combining and preparing them. Four
years trial has fully established the fact,
that DR.. Easterly's Family medicines are the
best and most certain curatives known for
the diseases for which they are recommend
ed. Every family should keep a supply on
hand, and thereby save doctors bills, and
much suffering. Dr. Easterly's Iodine and
Sarsaparilla, DR.. Carriers Cough Balsam,
Dr. Easterly's Fever and Ague Killer, DIR.
Hooper's Female Cordial and Dr. Bakers
Specific are all meeting with a rapid sale
and are universally approved. Over One
Hundred Thousand Dollars of these popular
articles have been sold within the last two
years See the advertisements in our col
umns.

neA We have received the January and
February numbers of the Mount Vernon Re
cord, monthly paper devoted to the patriot
ic enterprise of purchasing the Mount Yer
non estate. 1t is filled with the names of
contributors in every part of the Union,
except Indiana. As yet we have not seen
the record of q dollar from this State. We
wish some of our spirited ladies would move
in the cause--seect some of their numbers
as lady managers, and do something to save
Evansville from the discredit ofbeing wholly
indifferent to so sacred and patriotic an
enterprise of their country-women. The
Record contains the name of every contribu-
tor, from one who gives fifty cents to Ed
ward Everett, who has added upwards OF
SEQ, 900 to the fund.

w. W. VERT & Co-This firm was taken
before Recorder Mills yesterday, and fined
SIS for the alleged crime of selling without
license. When these gentlemen came into
Iae city, they made arrangements with Mr..
Nelson, the only resident auctioneer in the
place, to conduct their sale under his name,
paying him reasonable per centage on the
proceeds of the sale. As this course is GUS
tomary in other States and cities, they sup
posed it was all right here. Their hand
bills were issued in Mr. Nelson's name, and
the sale was conducted under his auspices.
Notwithstanding this interruption, the
sale will continue this and next week.
This afternoon is set apart especially for the
ladies, who are thus afforded a rare oppor-
tunity of Judging, selecting, and bidding of
their own jswelry, and avail themselves OF
the rare bargains that we have no doubt
will be offered. The sale for the ladies will
commence positively at two o'clock and, CON
tinus during the afternoon.
Messrs Vert & Co. cordially invite a
minute examination into the genuineness OF
their jewelry, as they do not wish to impose
bogus article upon our citizens. They are
personally known to some of our business
men, and merit the confidence of all. Theil
stock is one of the largest and best assorted
ever brought TO the city, and, they tell US
will be sold without reserve. Remember
the sale takes place during the remainder o
this, and the whole of the ensuing week.
But, as the greater the assortment, the NOR
favorable it is to select, we would sugges
the propriety--as showmen say-of goinl
early.

be felt here, if the express continues its ser

Freights are very low and scarce, and

Owing to the wind the Silver Star did
not leave at the usual time yesterday
While waiting, some man, being partially
intoxicated, came in the engine room of the
boat, where Capt. Fowler was conversing
with the engineer, and commenced abusing
the officers and the boat in no very measur-

thought ferbearance was no longer virtue,
when he took the fellow in hand, and gave
alim a severe drubbing. The Captain was

On the 28th ult. the steamboat Douglas,
Capt. Wathrey, was burned to the water

river in Tallahatchic county, Miss. The
boat was estimated at $40, 900, and insured
for one-half its value.
The steamer General Pike and John Bel

The Gen. Pike has been heightened and
