Fox story.

Two business gentlemen from
New Haven, who occasionally indulg-
ed in a little sporting experience, Wis.,
tied Southington on hunt, the other
day. Birds were not plenty, and
with doubtful success the gentlemen
started for the depot toward night,
to take the train home. Coming
across an Irishman, they accidental
ly asked him if there were any rab-
bits, partridges, quails, foxes, or any
other game about there. "Bedad

This was chance to capture fur

nest for three dollars. After trudg-
ing through the woods about q mile,
they came to clearing where
stood q log house. With horrible
Milcsian giin, he pointed to on old
woman and five young imps lying
loose about the main floor, exclaim.

Patrick Fox, these hunters are after

The hunters got back to the depot
too late for the train that day, but

morning. 1t is unnecessary to men

Cash Down.

The Hartford Press tells story
of recent accident on the New Lon
don Railroad. An intoxicated Irish.
man was sitting on the track when
the engine tossed him down an EN-.
bankment. The conductor backed
his train to pick up the dead body.
The victim vas found alive, however,
only somewhat bruised, and was
taken to Norwich. Here the con
ductor kindly offered to send the
man to his home, a few miles away,
in a hack, but he insisted on his abil-
ity to walk, and refused to be sent
home. The conductor pressed the
matter, when the Milesian, who had
stood the buttipg of the cowcatcher

A new article for shoe soles has
been invented, says the Shoe and
Leather Reporter, which seems to be
the climax Of improvement in this
department. II appears to be sub.
stance of which india rubber is the
basis, but it is heavier, and has So
lidi.y almost of iron, yet 6exibility
and elasticity, which renders it O
most perfect substance for the pur.
pose for which it is specially offered
1t is not at all Of the vulcanized rub
Der character, though it appears at q
glance like that material. AS an ar
ticle for soles it will undoubtedly
outwear four pair of the best Eng
lish leather. This substance is no,
to take the place of tho ordinary
leather sole, but is to be applied by
a peculiar cement to the boot or shoe
to which it appears to adhere per.
fectly. 1t is then trimmed on the
edge, and the work is oyer. Heels
are put on in the same way. The
inventor says pair of soles worr
daily will last one year. 1t is patent
cd, and will soon be introduced.

The symptoms of Catarrh are at nrst very
slight. Persons find they have a cold, that
they have frequent attacks, and are more sem
sitive TO the changes OF temperature. In this
condition the nose may be dry, or a slight dis
charge, thin and acrid, afterwards thick and
adhesive, may ensue.
As the disease becomes chronic, the dis
charges are increased in quantity and changed
in quality; they are now thick and heavy, and
are hawked or coughed of. The secretions
are offensive, causing a bad breath; the voice
thick and nasal; the eyes are weak; the Sense
of smell is lessened or destroyed; deafness
frequently takes place.
Another common and important symptom Of
Catarrh is, that the person is obliged 70 clear
his throat in the morning OF a thiolr or Shiny
mucous, which has fallen from the head dur
ing the night. When this takes place, tho
person may be sure that his disease is on its
way 20 the lungs, and should lose no time in
arresting it.
The above are but few of the many Catarrh
a. symptoms. Write TO our Laboratory for
our pamphlet describing fully all symptoms;

Colorado.

The history of this new State, at
this time seeking admission to the
constellation of States, is one which
most forcibly illustrates the perseve.
rance, energy and indomitable will
of the American pioneer. Thirty
years since, this now well known rich
mineral and agricultural State was,
by the influence of the slave power,
placed on the map as the Great Des-
ert unfit for the habitation of man or
beast; yet, at the same time, there
were 30,U00,000 of buffaloes roaming
and FAT on these plains, and an equal
number of elk, deer, wild sheep and
horses, oil Of which subsisted on this
desert.
Then 1t was that n young licutcn.
ant OF dragons, who saw aud con
yinced of the deception and misrep
reservations of the slave power, ven
turcd to present his dissent through
the press. His effort then was treat
ed with little else than silent con.
tempt. When, however, at the close
Of the Mexican war, he again brought
to the notice of his fellow citizens
the susceptibility OF this portion Of
the country for cultivation, and the
certainty OF the rich deposits OF the
precious metal on both sides of the
Sierra Madre and within the present
State Of Colorado, then it was that
the whole herd of the Beatians set
upon him. and no words were too
vile to apply--tho whole catalogue
of Billingsgate was freely used.-.
Conscious of the purity OF his mo-
tives, and the truth of his statements,
he calmly continued his efforts for
the public good.
In due time, gold was discovered,
Colorodo become territory, and
this same lieutenant then appointed
its first Governor. In this position,
he, by his experience, promptness,
and energy, saved the territories of
Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado
from being overrun and conquered
by Texan rebels.
For this promptness the demi -reb.
els aud conservatives, of Colorado,
managed to induce President Lincoln
10 remove him. The history of his
plant successor is well known in
Colorado, and requires no comment
from us. In due time the people OF
Colorado elected Convention, fran.
ed State Constitution, and under
1t, elected this same gentleman their
first State Governor. That new State
Is now an applicant for admission,
with every prospect of early success.
Her admission will give additional
value to her wonderfully rich miner.
al and agricultural lands. In very
short time, with the aid given by the
Pacific Railroad, which passes thro'
or across the State, her mineral
wealth will greatly surpass that of
or that Of any other State
or Territory, and under the benef eficent
influence OF tho Homestead Act, her
rich parks, of larger extent than are
the rich prairies Of Illinois, will fur.
eish happy homes to thousands of
industrious farmers, who will, from
