VAN AMBURGH & Co.'S GREAT GOLDEN
MENAGERrE-As an evidence of what energy,
tact and capital will accomplish in combina-
ton, there is no more striking example than
that of the Great Golden Menagerie Of Messrs
Van Amburch e Co: Knowing from the ex-
perience of lifetime, the wishes of the
people, and possessing that grand secret of
success in all trade, liberal and judicious ad
vertising, they have been extraordinarily
successful in pleasing the public and thereby
winning golden opinion for themselves. Thus
they enabled to present for public pat
ronage not only the largest Menagerie ever
organized by private enterprise, either in
this OF the old Country, but SO perfectly
modelled and so admirably conducted to
be unexceptionable to any one, and source
of qualification to all Their collection of
rare and curious animals is very compre-
hensive, and comprises many which are en-
tirelv new to America and which have never
been on exhibition prior to the present season.
Most prominent among these are the AT
rican Eland, the Water Buffalo, the Chauri
Gou, or grunting OK, and the White Zebra
Within few weeks the already multifarious
attractions have been enhanced by the addi-
ton of splendid living giraffe, and a large
black rhinoceros, direct from Africa, and
without doubt the only one in the country
portion Of this colossal exhibition win
tered, for the last two seasons, at Barnum' s
Museum, and the Internal Revenue returns,
prove that it visited by more than double
as many people as any other place of amuse-
ment in New York City. Their entire out
fit for the road is in thorough keeping with
the magnitude of the enterprise and their
chariots, baggage wagons and cages, are said
by those who have seen them, to be as beaut-
full as the skill of the mechanic and the cum
ming of the artist can make them. This
Menagerie will exhibit in Montpelier next
Saturday.

Mr. EDITOR The fourishing Grant Club
in Washington voted to invite Mr.. George
Smith to write for them Grant campaign
song Mr.. Smith kindly responded to the
invitation, and it was first sung by him at a
Grant meeting held by the Club, which was
addressed by Hon. Burnam Martin, of Chel-
sea, and other speakers from abroad. The
song WAS received with great applause, and
added much to the interest of the meeting
Mr. Smith is an excellent writer, and a
musical composer of ability We hail his
gong with pleasure, for its equal first
class song for a campaign document has
hardly been produced. 1t is sound in doctrine,
truthful in spirit, and glorious in song. By
request it is to be published in cheap form
for the use of Grant Clubs, and all sweet
singers for Grant and the Union. Those
wishing for the song doubtless can procure it
by ordering of Mr. Smith And we take
special pleasure, members and officers of
Washington Grant Club, in thus calling at
tention to it.

FIREs.-In Swanton fire is running IN the
woods, much to the damage of timber, at this
time. Great care should be taken by every
one having anything to do with matches or
any means of kindIing fire at this time.
The wad from sportsman's gun, ignited by
the discharge of the piece. may cause meal
culable mischief: and we think it by no means
improbable that's of the fires in the woods
are the result of careessness on the part Of
sportsmen. or boys out shooting.

GTaat Reduction Of Fare via the Michi-
gan Southern and Lake Shore Route.

we call attention of our readers 70 the
announcement of a great reduction of
1are from Chicago to New York and Bos-
ton, rtd the Michigan Southern and
Lake Shore Railroads. In the present
instance, as has hitherto been the case.
TINS line Is the first to give its patrons
the benefit Of the verv lowest rates.
while Its accommodations remain su.h as
to entltle 1t to the first choice.
Three trains pass over he route daily
each wav between Chicago and New
ork. These all make close connection
at Toledo, Dunkirk and Buffalo-there
Deing no terrles-transfers being made
IN union depots, and the trains, which
are links In through! line, accemmoda-
ting themselves to one another The
highest comfort, as well as the utmost
dispatch, is secured. For example
passen gers leaving Chicago at 7 A. VI.
II they wish to enjoy perfect repose en-
route, or tavel III privacy with their fam
llles or friends, take drawing room car.

the ilrst to Introduce, being transferred
atCleEeland, without co illusion or ex-
pense. to an equally elegant slccnng-
room car, and ut Rochester resuming

Central. AT dnnkirk, however, they
have choice of routes, connecting there
lor at Buffalo, with the Erie broad gauge
line. The train which leaves Chicago at

Cleveland, at which place passengers
take comfortable and elegant day cars,
with the same choice Of routes as before
This train, reaching Toledo ria the Air

In general, those who wish to avoid
the lnconyeniences and not infrequemt
delays of the North Shore route, anu to
enjoy the comfort Of travel, and the at
tentions of courteous officials, should
la Ike this popular route, on which. we
said at the beginning, they will enjoy the

HUNTING.-Two editors of this place
one afternoon of this week, thought they
would go out "and kill some dead thing
and at the same time get little healthy
exercise in the green fields verging on
the banks of the picturesque Manitowoc
One had not fired gun since he pointed
his old fuzee at the grayhacks and pulled
the trigger, but he was strong in the
faith that he could at least kill an hour's
time. The other-well no matter about
him, he IS of no account any way, being
so dishonest. At fright shoulder shift
these brave hunters marched up the street
determination indelibly stamped on every
feature of their countenances, while the
God of cay looked warmly down upon
the scene. In fact they had not gone
mile ere they thought his warmth not on
~ expressive but to some degree oppres-
sive. However they annhilated space
and were soon on the grounds once press
ed by the moccasin of the red man,
grounds bordering on the stream where
once glided his swift canoe Was that
the warwhoop of hundred savages
which echoed through the trees? All,
no. it was the whistle of propeller at
the pier. The Indian has faded from
earth; gone to the happy hunting
grounds" which he ever loved to think of
and in which conferred all his,faith and
hope. The winds signing thro' the tai
pines, the ripping waves of the river,
the looms loud, wailing cry, all seemed
to say, our former friend is gone. Twas
but yesterday his 1.-THE form Was seen,
to-day he is not. Well, let the Indian
roam in his new found dominions, we are
telling how hunting is no,C carried on.
The first bird seen was loon the same
mentioned, so pathetically. above), and
pursuit was given across the swamp ut
terly regardless of the backing on those
new boots. The loon seldom attempts
to fly when pursued, he trusts to his
swimming qualities and his ability to
dodge the flash of gun, but in this case
our hunters practised little army strate-
gy, they flanked him and at every APP
pearance saluted him with charge of
shot. lie fell a victim to the powers
that be at the seventy-tkird round, and
was borne in triumph up the river bank
After such grand success as this We edi-
tors continued their winding way reioic-
ing in their strength. A large duck was
seen IN the river and trusting that the
loon game might be played on him it was
attempted, but this.played out quick, for
like riches the bird took wings and flew
away. 4 ten pound pickeref was seen ly-
ing in the sun close to the shore, but
while the beauties of his form" were
being discussed the euss darted into deep
water. leavicg the heroes Of this article
to stare In blank amazement at their loss.
After considerable more such experience
as this 1t was thought home was not
very bad place after all, and break was
made for the classic shades of Mantle
woo. But what aiis these braye hunters,
they are down on every log they come to.
OF course they deny that they are sared.
! but one thing is sure one of them has
biistered feet and does not wish to hunt
F! as much as he did.
