from the Bruus,oics TELEGRAPH, April Pill

We have been requested to give insertion to
the following testimonial to Mr. Bennett. tits
signed by thirty-eight persons, contributing one
dollar each. An entry of cash So 90, and one of
cash IL 90 appear upon the paper, contributed
by gentlemen of the highest Responsibility The
sum total of money for the relief of Mr.. Ben
nett is $40
But the money contributed is of little mo-
ment, compared to the real value of the testi-
monial, bespeaking as it does the confidence of
the citizens in Mr.. Bennett. Several of the
slgners had children under his instructio !, at
the time the whipping occurred. Other signers
were members of the late Board of Agents, or
are members of the present experimenting
School Committee, gentlemen whose business it
was to look after the Schools and to make them
selves fully acquainted with Mr. Benefits dis
charge of his duty.
And here we will take occasion to add, what
we should have said in our previous article re
ating to this case, that the late Board of Agents
regarded Mr.. Bennett as a very capable and
successful teacher. The wisdom of the Su-
perintending School Committee in not remov-
ing him from the school, was most fully shown,
in his entire success in the management of it,
during the closing weeks of the term. The
most perfect discipline was maintained, not
difficulty occurred, and the pupils, as we can
testify from the examination, made good prog

A CLEAR CASE OF CLAIRvoYANT SIGHT.
Dear Madam Permit me to tender you my sin
cere thanks for the cure you have effected on my
child. My daughter, ten years old, was taken sick
last January in a very singular manner. We called
in six of the best Physicians in the city, they said the
case was very singular onethey never saw one like
it-and came to the conclusion they could not tell
what the disease was. Some friends advised that we
should call on a Clairvoyant; there being none in
Providence that we could rely on, we wrote to Mrs.
MANCHESTER, in Portland, describing her symp-
toms. She Immediately examined her case and told
that she had Snake in her stomach, told where she
drank it, and that it has been growing, and from the
best of her judgement she should think it ten Or
twelve inches long. gave the child her prescription
and in few hours the child elected the snake alive
from the stomach; it was measured and found to be
eleven and half inches long. We have preserved,
that all may see for themselves that this statement is
really So am confident that the child could not
have lived had it not been for Mrs. Manchester and
we feel as though she could be repaid for her
skill. MARY RAY,

Mr.. Charles Bennett, late in charge of the
Grammar School of the Village District in this
place, as an able, efficient and successful teach
er. In the punishment recently inflicted by
him upon member of this school, by reason Of
which he has been subjected to heavy expenses,
he was actuated, they believe, only bya proper
desire to maintain good discipline and secure
the best interests of the school. As an express
sion therefore of their continued confidence,
and as a measure of relief to Mr.. Bennett in
the expenses thus incurred, they tender him
the sum set against their names respectively:

Poultry.

: No one should keep too large "a stock
of poultry. They do not thrive well.
kept together in large numbers. They
become sickly, infested with lice, and lay
but few eggs. They need a good range
wherelthey can fndf plenty of insects
and if kept in large numbers, these in
sects are distributed among so many that
they do but little good to any. Some
think that by supplying meat the loss. of
insects can be overcome but we have
never seen this effectual. 1t is true, in
winter hens must be supplied with meat
if you expect them to lay. We have
kept various. numbers of hens, and
have come. to the conclusion that the
most pro6tablesnuuiber for eggs is about
thirty. I'VE got more eggs when We
kept thirty than5@hen we kept seventy.
And We believe that every one who will
try the experiment will find that our ex-
perience will be his own. ,,s,7=.. $,
A warm hen-house is needed in winter,
if you would have your hens lay. If
allowed to roost in trees, and left exposed
to the storms of rain and snow, and to
the intense cold that prevails, you need
not expect fresh eggs. But with warm
house, plenty Of feed and water, and
some meat, your hens will reward you
with nice fresh egss.. which are such a
great luxury servedup in SO many forms
upon every gcntlemau's table.-American
Agriculturalist. -

Hall, in his Journal Of Health, gives
the following bit of, wisdom:
Bread and butter are the only articles
of food of which we never tire from ear,
tly childhood to extreme old age. A
| pound of fine flour. or cIndian meal con-
tains three times as much meat as one
pound of butchers roast beef; and if the
whole product of the grain, bran and all,
were made into; bread, fifteen per cent
more of nutrimeht ;would be added. Un'
/ fortunately the bran, the coarsest part Of
which gives soundness to the teeth and
strength to the brain, is generally ex
clude@. tTgs q.
Five hundred pounds of -four gives te
the body thirty pounds Of the bony all
ment, while the same Quantity OF brar
gives more than one hundred and twenty
i've pounds. :.
The bone is lime, the Indispensable ali
ment of health to the whole human body
from the want Of the natural supply o
which multitudes, of persons go into
general decline.
But swallowing phosphate in the shape
of powder or in syrup for these declines
have little or no effect. The articles con
tanned in. these phosphates must pas
through natures laboratory and suelee
to her manipulations in alembics specially
prepared BY Almighty power and skill
Fin ptainer phrase, the shortest. safest ant
tinfallable method of giving strength t.
the body. bone and brain, thereby arrest
ing disease, and building up the constltu
ton is to- eat and digest more bread mad'
out of the whole grain, whether wheat
rye or oats.
