The following letter relating to Miss Saw
yer and her celebrated salve, appeared in the
Bath Times of Feb. 10:
MEssRs EDITORS The immense success
achieved by DR.. Brandreth in the wonder full
sale of his famous pills, by Sands with his
Sarsapariila, Ayre with his Cherry Pectoral
etc., has induced host of others to profe I
their nostrums to the public notice, in the
hope that the gullibilty of the people might
enable them to fill their pockets as well.
The country has been so flooded with patent
medicines specifics, and cure -alls, that a new
advertisement or hand bill excites distrust in
our minds at once, and we are apt to declare
the article a catch-penny.
In precisely that state of mind I took up
a hand bill a few days since, setting forth the
virtues of Miss Sawyer's Salve. On reading
it however 1 saw very plainly that the article
was not liable to that impeachment. Miss
Sawyer whom have known from her oh lid
catch-pepny tricks upon the public.
She possesses an ample fortune.-Her broth
er, with whom she resided, by his industry,
frugality and success in commercial pursuits,
acquired large estate, which, at his decease,
ali came into her possession as his sole heir.
Her excellent management of his domestic
affairs, and her industry in other pursuits,
contributed in no small degree to the accu-
mutation, and the same virtues will doubt
less increase the estate. She is therefore un-
with her medicine.
Why then does she advertise her salve?
In my judgment, nothing but the firm con-
viction that it would benefit the public has in
duced her to offer it. Shes woman Of n o
common mind and having given the matter
an abundant trial she is convinced that her
medicine is all that it processes to be. One of
her testimonials refers to her christian walk
and character in high terms of eulogy, all of
which doubt not is well deserved, as she has
always been noted for her sturdy honesty
and steadiness of purpose, never deviating
from straight forward integrity for any consid-

TUEsDAY.-Quite number collected at the Mu-
nicipal Court room yesterday morning 10 hear Judge
Kingsbury's decision in regar to the complaint
against VIII lam Wood, Emile Genet and VIM. Gra-
ham, for consprng together and trying to njure the
bus of the Portland Glass Company. The Judge
has evidently given this subject considerable study
carefully weighing every point that was presented to
him by the able counsel both sides, relating to
the business Interests of our city, and all OF er cities
in the State where corporations and organizations OF
this kind exist 1t appeared, according to the stale
ment of Judge Kingsbury, that Woods, one OF the
defendants, Oh Monday morning, when he reported
himself usual to the foreman of the company fer
work, was informed that there then nothing for
him to do in his branch of the business but told
in answer to his question, that he was not dscharg-
ed. Some of the workmen, however, appear to have
got the impression that Wood was discharged, and,
accordingly after very brief conversation lett the
premises: while Others, knowing nothing of the cir
Gums ances, followed the example of their fellow
workmen. The result was that the work stopped, 10
the very serious injury of the company. This act
was morally wrong and in violation of the laws OF
the Glass Makers Association, of which they were
members, but appears to have been spontaneous and
not The result of conspiracy. Even it it were aeon
spracy it was conspiracy to do lawfnl act, since
they were bound by no contract for fixed term of
service. Finally, it was not proved that there was
any fraudulent malicious intent to injure ebus-
mess of their employers The defendants were &C
cordingly discharged. When the decision was an
nounced a number OF the glass workers among the
spectators evinced their appreciation by round of
hearty app ause.
Thomas Regln and Francis Groves were before the
court for having been engaged in voluntary fight.
