A FAMILY BANNER.--An eminent
physician, in Hearth and Home, tells
the following excellent story for the ben
eft of young mothers. He says: An
intelligent young mother inquired some
days since how she could best preserve
her child's linen clean and sweet when
changed frequently during the day. l
directed her never to dry it by the fire,
but in the sun and open air if the wealth
er permitted. You thus not only avoid
saturatirg the air of your rooms with
the volatile and poisonous gases driven
out of the linen, but the suns rays have
powers of cleansing and disinfecting
which artificial heat has not, and will
purify and preserve the linen. She fol-
lowed my directions, but as is too often
the practise, dried and aired it in the
nursery window. Her fastidious hus-
band demonstrated in vain against this
unseemly exposure. Believing that if
she saw her practise as others saw it, she
would desist, he so directed their after
noon walk as to bring the nursery win
dow into full view from a central part
of the town. Stopping abruptly, he
pointed to the offending linen Tapping
conspicuously in the breeze, and asked
sarcastically: "My dear, what is that
displayed from our window ?" "Why,"
she proudly replied, :" that is the flag of
our union!' Conquered with this pun
gent retort, he saluted the flag with a
swing of his hat, and pressing his wife's
arm closer within his own, said, as they
walked homeward, "And long may it
wave"

THE EMPRESS ELEPHANT.-Them mon
ster Empress Elephant, exhibited here last
week recently had ar exciting time in
Canada, as related by the Montreal
Star
When she was brought to the Long
Bridge over the Richelieu river at St.
Johns, she evidently retained vivid re-
collection of this mishap, and neither
coaxlng, threats, persuasion, nor force
! could induce her to bulge an inch on
the perilous structure. Nor does it appear
that her apprehensions were Unbound
ed-for the proprletors of the bridge no.
tilted the menagere managers that they
were dubious Of the capacity of the
bridge to bear the weight of the ele-
plant, and that if they crossed her they
must do it at their own risk. The NOR
ming was rather chilly, and as they did
not wish to risk her health by swimming,
they concluded to make the venture.
The band chariot and an enormous den
of performing lions were started on
ahead of her, in order to give her con-
fidence, and when she saw that they
went safely over, she was induced to fol-
low, which she did very slowly, testing
every plank and timber with her feet
and trunk as she progressed. When
ever she discovered any of the timbers
to be defective, she would cross over the
division to the. opposite roadway, and
would so progress until she came tc
another doubtful place, when she would
cross back again. She worked along in
this way until she had come more than
half way over, when she became suspi.
cious that neither road was safe, and
started rapidly back, driving back the
long den of cages that were following
and clearing, the bridge for a space Of
ten or more rods. AT this juncture a
flock of sheep came running past her
and she vented her spleen by picking
them up one by one with her trunk and
throwing them into the river, until she
had disposed of seven in this way. She
was finally induced to go on, and aftel
having been more than two hours il
in crossing, arrived safely over. TIL,
scene was witnessed by overtwo thousand
people, and the utmost excitement pre-
vailed.

THE ATLANTIC MoNTHLY.-TheS Sep
TENDER number of Atlantic is in great
demand on account of the new and start
ling statements put forth in the Byron
article by Mrs. H. B. Stowe. "The
Story of Lady Byron's Life is written
with a clearness, and evident knowledge
Of the whole circumstances of the career
of the gifted but guilty poet, that must
carry conviction of the truthfulness of
Lady Byron's wrongs. Mrs. Stowe has
beautifully indicated the name and
fame of the Christian woman who chad
so much of Christ in her that to have
seen her seemed to be, to have drawn
nearer heaven and who chad a
mercifulness that made allowance for
every weakness and pitied every SIM"
The late publication of Countess Guic-
cioli is doomed by Mrs. Stowe and the
right seems brought to light. Newspa-
per critics are laboring hard over this
article which is producing such sensa-
ton among the reading public, but Mrs.
Stowe must have foreseen this, and is
fortified with proof indisputable, and
facts which are stubborn. The remain
ing articles of Atlantic are fresh and
readable. Woods has it.

A BIG "SMoKE." The Burlington
Press relates that number of men en-
gagged in haying at Hydeville, last week
were driven from their work by swarm
of wasps, which had concealed them
selves in one of the walls of the barn in
which they were unloading the hay. Not
relishing the pain arising from the nu-
merous stings they had received, they
determined to remain masters of the
situation" and conceived the idea of
smoking out" the varmints." Ac-
cordingly, at the suggestion of rever-
end gentleman who just then happened
along, they saturated a bundle of hay
with kerosene, attached it to the end of
a pole, ignited it, and held it up to the
side of the barn where the wasps seemed
to be the the thickest. The first appli-
cation was successful, it having the effect
not only to smoke out /" the wasps, but
destroy the bsrn and all its contents.

In the town of R, in Windsor
county, Jim B, is the disciple of Escu-
lapius. He is quite a wag withal and
has perpetrated numerous jokes on his
associates and friends. One day GER
tain dentist, who, had been the victim of
one of them, went to the physicians Of
flee complaining Of an excrutiating
toothache. The physicians were both
gone and Jim was monarch" The
dentist was in too much agony to wait .
and so Jim, eager for the job, was per-
mitted to take the forceps and " 90 in.'
The tooth Was pointed out, the forceps
applied, after being duly cautioned to
give straight pull and not gyratory
wrench, Jim @bowed himself nightly
when To- at the expense of scarcely a
pound Of strength, out came the whole
set-of false teeth. We believe that
Jim has resolved never to practice den
tistry any more, claiming it to be "be-
meath the dignity of the profession"

state Election.

Our annual State election occurs one
week from next Tuesday. 1t is not OF
course of the Importance of many cleo
tions which have occurred during the
last ten wears, but it is always of con-
siderable Importance, and ought to call
out vote equal to it. As to national
affairs, the vote will represent very near
w the same sentiment as last year. We
now have in full and favorable progress
the administration which was contested
for last year. So far it has come up to
even more than was promised, especially
in paying off the public debt, and 1T
ought to be the pride and desire of ev-
cry freeman to deposit his vote in appro-
baton of that policy. In all the north
ern States that have voted since last
year, there has been an increased repub-
lican majority, and one State, Connecti-
cut, which for two years had been DEM
ocratic, this year elected the republican
state ticket and gained two congressman.
We cannot expect Vermont with the
present quiet in all her bounds, to give
any increase or as large majority as
last year, when she did SO well, because
her majority depends upon the fullness
of her vote, but her vote should be full
enough to do justice to her political sem
timents, and show that she does not fall
ter in her republican faith. Here the
republicans are in the enjoyment of their
usual unanimity, while in some other
strong republican States, they are badly
divided on local issues, and in some in
stances are likely to lose their State
Vermont, therefore, owes it to her good
reputation, to give good vote on the
7th day of September, and the freemer
should accordingly give our coming
election the attention it deserves.

AMPUTATIoN WITHOUT PAIN.--A
London physician claims, before the
British medical association, to have as
certained that cut inflicted by circu-
lar knife revolving at speed of twenty
five revolutions to the second is painless.
he has constructed knife on that prin-
ciple, which will cut without inhicting
pain, and with which, he says, he can
open assesses, remove carbuncles, or
perform any other minor operation with
out chloroform. He is even inclined to
think that the finger of human subject
might be SO cut off, The knife was, un.
fortunately, broken in the room before il
could be displayed, but DIR. Richardson
has tried experiments with it on himself
and on a rabbit, and neither he nor the
rabbit were conscious Of pain. He is
ready, he says, to repeat the experiments
on himself.

ALABAMA.-Senator Warner of Ar
kansas, now in Washington, gives the
following as the returns of the late cleo
ton The republicans carried the first
district by 1000; the second by 1000;
the third by 200; the fourth by 5000 to
10000. The democrats carried the fifth
by less than 1000, and the sixth by less
than 1900. Grants majority in the
State at the last election was 1900; the
popular majority at this election will not
fall below 10000. There being no dis
reimbursement in Alabama all classes of
citizens participated and the republicans
carried the State on the platform of uni
versal suffrage and removal of the disa-
bilities imposed by thefourteenth amend
ment. There is no division in the party,
and the senator regards the State as GER
tain for the republicans in future He
came through Georgia, but is not hope
full that the republicans can carry that
State at the next election. He regards
the Carolinas, Florida and Alabama as
sure for the straight out republican par
ty in theme national campaign.
