A year ago this spring, the son OF a
Vermont farmer left home with circus
company. Tho family received no COM
munieation from him. A few days ago
there came to the father letter post
marked Flushing, i. ]. The writer
stated that the missing son had come
TO his house few weeks before, in
feeble condition, and had Just died,
asking, as u last request, that his re-
mains might bo sent home He, the
writer, stated that he was in poor cir
cumstances, and asked the father to
send sixty dollars through the postof-
flee to pay for suitable coffin and 9TH
expenses attending the dispatehing Of
the body homeward. The father, al
iirst, supposed the letter TO be genuine.
lie, however, in order TO make sure
that il was all right, sent it back to the
President Of Flushing Village with a
request TO investigate the matter. The
latter has discovered that the son re-
ported as dead is not only alive but one
Of the many in his employ. The at
tempted swindler has not yet been de-
tected. He probably learned from the
son Of has prolonged absence from
home, and rosorted to the above scheme
for raising the wind.

THE BEsr PRrAcmNo. Rev. Mr..
Spurgeon, 81 London, said recently in
the introduction of his sermon 1T has
been sometimes debated whether prao-
teal experimental or doctrinal preach
ing was tie best kind aud the most use
ful He should not enter into a dis
cussion Of the question, but mig ght say
that in exclusively doctrinal preachers
he had observed q tendency to dispute
aud quarrel; in experimental preachers
a tendency TO disparage aud Judge 9th
ers, whilst those Nho bad been pract-
cal had degeneralel into legality, and
TIE grace o. God had evapoated. The
very best preaching was that which had
tho most Of Jesus Christ ia it; for it
gathered up the excellencies oftbe three
classes be had mentioned into one per-
SON SINCE for practice Christ was the
way, for doctrine Christ was the truth,
and fir experience Christ was the life.

BURGLARY residence of Mr..
William H. Porter, in Madison avenue,
near Jefferson Park, was burglariously
entered on Monday night last, and ran
sacked from cellar to the garnet. Every
room in the house, with the exception
of the chamber, occupied by Mr.. Por-
ter, was visited, and had not the rob-
bers been frightened away, a consider
able quantity of valuable goods would
doubtless have been carried away. The
thieves, however, succeeded in getting
away with an overcoat and a number OF
other articles of wearing apparel, Mr..
Porter has resided here but about two
months, and enters his protest against
such unceremoneous visits. 1t would
be well if our people were little more
particular with their windows and door
fastenings Although our police are
vigilant, yet with the limited number
on duty, as well as the extent of then
cheats" it is almost impossible to ex'
pect prrfect freedom from the depreda'
lions of skillful New York thieves.

ROYNTON'S ELEVATED OVEN RANGE

This new and beautiful Range, which has lust
been completed, is offered to the public the
most complete, convenient and desirable Elevated
Oven Range in the market and is the result of long
experience in the manufacture and setting of Cook
ing Ranges and we do not hesitate in recommend
ing it the nearest to perfection of any Elevated
Oven Range in the country.
We will enumerate some of the peculiar advan-
tages this Range possesses
First-It is more beautiful in form and design
than any other pattern.
Second-It has much larger hot place Surface
for Boilers and Stew Pans, affordng larger accom-
modations for Cooking purposes.
Third-It has a smaller Fire Chamber, and burns
less coal than any other pattern of Elevated Oven
Range, for the simple reason that the fire chamber
is entirely surrounded with fire brick instead of
open CRATE in front and water back in the rear.
forming two sides of the fire las in all other pattern
ranges both of which chill and deaden the fire and
detract largely from the power, and make it abso-
lutely necessary to burn a larger amount of fuel.
Fourth-The body of this Range is higher than
other patterns, and is more like the French Kiteh-
eners, making it much more convenient and easy
for the cook.
Fifth-The hot closets are more accessible,
placed in natural position (beng in the body of
the Range instead of above the ovens, as in other
patterns.
Sixth-The ovens do not project over the boiling
surface to make it inconvenient in removing
the boilers, as in other patterns.
Seventh-There are better arrangements for con-
veying the steam to chinneys and controlling the
draft, than most ranges.
Eighth-The ovens bake more evenly, as we have
a return fue the top of the oven (which is the
point that most often tals thus securing perfect
baking oven on the top as well as on the bottom.
Ninth-The fiues in this range all complete in
themselves, so that it is unnecessary to form them
of brick (Which absorbs the heat) and makes the
setting of them much more simple and sure.
Tenth-The water back can be removed and the
plumbing work can be repaired, if necessary, with

The NATIONAL GAME.-A very inter
esting match game of ball was played
yesterday afternoon, on the Resolutes
grounds, of this city, between the At.
lantics of this city and the Resolutes OF
New York. About two hundred people
witnessed the game, and we were glad
to notice quite number of ladies, who
seemed to take alikely interest in watch
ing the game. The Atlantics went to
the bat first, and took the lead, which
they maintained until the close of the
game-the score standing twenty to
thirty nine in their favor. Both clubs
played exceedingly well, and the best
of feeling was shown by the players.
