The Concert by Hrs. Carr's Pupils.

The Concert given in the Court II ouse
on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, the
9th and 25th ult., by the pupils of Mrs
James Carr, jr., was creditable alike to
Them and their teacher. Several of the
pieces were we'll performed, demonstrating
the proficiency OF number of her pupils
as we'll as evipcing Mrs C's talent as .
musical instructor. Considering the age
Of few Of the performers, the playing
and singing of number Of pieces were
capital. The few difficult pieces with
which Mrs. c. favored the audience.
were ezceilently performed. Our town
has long felt the want Of good and cfi
cieut teacher Of music on the piano, and
we arc gratifed to know that Mrs. G.. is
supplying that want, and that her efforts
are being so well appreciated by our citi-
Eens and neighbors IF there were any
III attendance who could not appreciate
the efforts OF the pupils, 10 that they we're
unable to comprehend that the perform.
ances, with one exception, were by anna
teures and not by professors, we think
they, too, were well paid for their guar

May Queen - which. by the way,
was fitting conclusion of the entertain
ment, and perfect gem of its kind, all
things considered
We do not hesitate to call the Concert
success in every way, and to justify US

Fields of Dock.

The root of the yetio,c dock, so trouble
some to farmers, is an effectual slterativ.
and most valuable medicine. In the
neighoorhood of Lowell, Doct j. c. Aver
* Co. have planted fields of it, where
they raise many tons at crop. 1t IL
grown like the carro; or beet. in drills.
aud its quality or properties have been SO
much improved by cultivation. 1t is one
of ;he ingredients in Aver. Sarsa parilla,
and, we arc informed, the extraordinary
virtues of the preparation are largely due
to the extract Of this root that it con.
tains. The Sarsaparilla root, used by
this firm, is grown on plantations of their
own, IN Honduras, to secure an article of
superior aud wholly reliable quality.
One Of the reasons for the universally
acknowledged superiority of their medi-
clnes, may be seen in the wstcbful care
that is used in preparing them. - Yer

Some Interesting developments oI
frauds have recently been made in the
Philadelphia Custom House. Ii ha,
transpircd that certain assistant weighers
have been carrying on for some time past
u lucrative business in their line of du
ties. Several merchants of Philadelphia
have been bribing these weighers to make
light weight in the commodities passin z
through their hands for the assessment OF
import duty, thus dcfraudiug the Gov.
ernmcnt OF its just amount OF duties. A
close scrutiny into these specuations is
now going forward, and the result will
doubtless be a clean sweep among this
class OF officials in the Philadelphis Gus
tom House.

What are the Stars
FROM THE GERNA,

Are they white lambs, those stars on high,
That when the day star sinks in night,
still feed in pastures of the sky,
And to the shepherds lend their light?
or silver lilies are they, there,
With sweetest petals open spread,
That, when we mortals rest from care,
Their fragrance DER the weary shed:
Or consecratetl candles, tall,
That on Gods altar shine SO bright,
The darkness of our earthly ball
To dissipate with sOftest light
All, no they are the letters fair,
With which good angels clOthe 4 in white,
sweet hymns OF love for Us prepare,
And IN heavens book Of record write.

PLANTING LIMA BEANS. 1t is not gener-

that Lima Beans, so liable to rot after plant
ing in a wet SPELL can be protected against
this danger by simply greasing them well be

and unless the season be extremely wet it will
prove a sure remedy. A few years ago
