SNOW POWDER.
Patented May 80, 1866.


This is an article Tor washing without rab-
bing, except in very dirty places, which will
require a very slight rub, and unlike other
preparations offered for like purpose, will not
rot the clothes, but will leave them much winter
than ordinary methods, without the usual wear
and tear.
1t removes grease spots as if by magic, and
softens the dirt by soaking, so that rinsing will
in ordinary cases entirely remove it.
This powder is prepared in accordance with
chemical science, and upon process peculiar
to ITSELF which is secured by letters patent. 1t
has been in use for more than a year, and has
proved itself an Universal favorite wherever it
has been used. Among the advantages claimed
are the following, viz
1t saves all the expense of soap usually used
on cotton and linen goods.
1t saves most of the labor of rubbing, and
wear and tear.
Also, for cleaning windows it is unsurpassed.
With one quarter the time and labor usually
required it imparts beautiful gloss and lustre,
much superior to any other mode. No water
required except to moisten the powder.
Directions with each package.
And can be readily appreciated by single
trial. The cost of washing for family of five
or sig persons will net exceed three cents
The manufacturers of this powder are aware
that many useless compounds have been intro
duced to the public which have rotted the
cloth, or failed in removing the dirt, but know
ing the intrinsic excellence of this article they
confidently proclaim it as being adapted to
which has heretofore remained unsupplied.

PERsoNAL.-Col. VIM. Austine, Chief
Mastering and Disbursing officer Of the
United States, and Assistant Provost
Marshal General for Vermont during the
last three years of the war, has closed
the business of his office at Brattleboro,
and is about to leave Vermont to recruit
his health in a more genial climate. In
view Of his approaching departure,
number of his friends in Brattleboro
gave him a supper last Saturday, and at
the close of the entertainment presented
to him a handsome and costly gold
watch and chain, in token of their re-
spect and esteem for him as an officer
and gentleman. The presentation was
made by Col. c. A. Miles, and compli-
mentary speeches were made by Ex- Gov.
Holbrook, G. A. Meade, Rev. Mr.. Froth-
ingham and others. Col. Austine was
in Burlington Tuesday and leaves
Brattleboro week hence for st. Angus
tine, Florida, where he was long sta
toned before the war. In common with
a host of friends. we wish him a pleas
ant winter in the mild and healthful air
of that ancient city, and all health and
prosperity wherever ne may be in fu-
ture.

BsaopB.-The Atlantic cable gives US
advices to Thursday evening. The news
report from Ireland is scanty. British
troops were still being forwarded to the
island, and London Journal speaks Of
the Fenian movement as rebellion. :"
Fenian arms and uniforms, from Amer
lea, had been seized in Liverpool. 1t is
alleged In Paris that the government in
Washington has arranged with Napoleon
that a tract of Mexican territory shall
be set apart for purposes of French COL
onization, and that the rights of the
French landholders shall be respected.

A NOBLE Acr-We see by the St.
Louis Republican that distressing ac-
cident occurred on Friday night, Nov.
10Th, to a party returning from ball in
East St. Louis. AS the boat swung in
to the landing, Miss Morrison, one of
the party, fell overheard. The conster-
nation produced by this sudden calamity
may be imagined, and in a moment ali
was confusion. A young man &C. M.
Wicker, son of G. W. Wicker of North
Ferrisburgh, this State) connected with
the Transfer Company, jumped into the
river with his clothes on, and, catching the
dress of the drowning girl, made q des-
perate effort to reach the shore, but was
rapidly borne down the stream by the
current out of reach of immediate as
sistance, and after a protracted struggle
against the strength of the current and
the weight of his clothes, his strength
became exhausted and his hold relaxed,
and the unfortunate maiden was swept
downward by the current to a watery
grave, the young man having just
strength left to reach the shore. The
Republican justly adds: 1t is no slight
trial of manhood to plunge into a rapid
river when the water is almost of win
try cold, with heavy clothes on and in
the darkness of midnight and although
almost any man will risk his life to save
that Of girl, yet under such circum-
stances as these the majority would
shrink from the danger; SO those who
dare it are worthy Of particular praise
| and commendation.

win this color satisfy you, Mr.. Ruskin'
No more exquisite hue is painted on our
dreams. Henceforth | shall forget the
green mountains and remember the blue.
But here is singular passage in the
"Modern Painters :" book which L hap
pen to be not only reading, but putting
to the test of travellers observation of
Nature. AIR. Ruskin says, Mountains
can become pure blue only when there Is
so much air between US and them that
they become mere fiat, dark shades, every
detail being totally lost; they become
blue when become air, not till then. Con
sequently Salvator's painting being OF
hill perfectly clear and near, with all
their details visible, is, as far as color is
concerned, broad, bold, talsehood-the
direct assertion of direct uniformity"
Mr.. Ruskin is very downright and posi-
tive; and yet, If he were here at this
moment, he would see yonder mountain
as blue as the deep sea, as blue as azure,
; as blue as indigo, as blue as Andrew
Johnson after the election-and yet he
would at the same time see the details Of
the mountain distinctly visible. SO that
Salvador might have been right, and his
critic wrong.

heights is Lake Champlain, looking, as
now see it, like strip of that self-same
silvery ribbon which we call the Hud'
son River. What a region of enchant.

THE RUTLAND LAUNDRY.-This we'll
known establishment has recently
changed hands, and visit to it and an
examination of the work turned out
thereat has convinced US that the new
management intends prosecuting the
business in a thorough and efficient
manner. A laundry is an institution
which every place as large as Rutland
should have, and one which can be well
supported here. The washing and iron
ing is much better done than can be
elsewhere, and the prices are fully as
low, therefore We see no good reason why
it should not live and prosper. Besides
carrying on the laundry business in all
its branches, the new management make
to order collars, cuffs, shirts, shirt
bosoms, and all kinds of white goods.
Call and examine the price list and style
of work, and you cannot fail to besatis-
fed.

THE School HOUSE IN ASHES 1t is
with no ordinary regret we announce
that our beautiful School HOuse-one of
the best in the State, and the pride and
hope of our village-was totally de-
stroyed by fire on Tuesday night of this
week. Several hundred dollars worth of
school books, belonging to the scholars
all over the village, library case, and
school apparatus of various kinds were
all destroyed with it. Also the school
register, and the "Roll of Honor" IN
which with honorable pride the pupils
worked so diligently to have their
names entered. The fire was first dis
covered at about IL o'clock in the base
ment, and seems to have taken in some
manner from the furnace, and though it
had got under considerable Roadway
whenidiscovered, it probs bly, would have
been saved but for want Of water, For
an hour and half it was confined mainly
to the basement, in vain attempts to
smother it, and pouring on water
brought in pals. The engine was
promptly brought out, and water drawn
for it from reservoirs in various places,
but in no case could it play but a few
minutes before the water would give out,
and at half past twelve the fire got up in
the upper stories and burst out in per-
feet fury. The efforts We're then directed
to saving Mr.. W. H. Johnson's buildings,
which were successful, with but slight
damage. At no time was it possible,
after discovery, to get inside to save
anything, so dense was the smoke. Eff
forts were made to enter the west end of
the building by ladders into the High
School room for that purpose, but it
was found no person could remain in it
an instant without suffocation. The
loss must be at least from ten to twelve
thousand dollars, on which there is an
insurance of only between four and five
thousand dollars. 1t is severe loss to
the village, not only in consequent future
taxation but will also be felt at least for
six months to come in the Inconvenience
and disarrangement of our excellent
system of schools There were but few
families in the village who did not have
few dollars worth of books destroyed
The fail term of school was to have
closed to-day, "Wednesday, and has been
abruptly terminated in manner little
expected when the session closed for
Tuesday. Falls Times.
