Then came Brewster's evidence. He
identified the prescription. Wnen he found
there was something wrong with Miss
Setby, the deceased, hewent to Marcelin's, s,
and saw Drake, who admitted to having
put three grains of atropia in the prescrip-
ton, instead of the same quantity OF assa-
fptida. ~ -
Then came medical evidence as to the
effects of atropia, and the amount that
should be given in dose which made half
a grain to each pill, when one-sixth of q
grain should be enough.
1t all looked very bad for poor Charley,
and saw plainly that, in the present state
of the case, Sanford could not help him
any. There was only one question he
asked DIR. Brewster, which seemed rather
to bother the doctor, and was suggestive
to me.
doctor" he said, chow was it that,
when you suspected something wrong
with Miss Selby, you left her for nearly
half an hour with the ignorant people OF
this house, and went yourself down to
Marcelin's, instead of trying something to
relieve the deceased, and sending a mes
senger TO Marcelin's?"
| DIR. Brewster said he wanted to be per-
sonally satisfied.
aAnd how was it, doctor, that, when
you were personally satisfied, you con.
tented yourself with using only simple
remedies, such as sulphate OF zinc, and

for the past few years impossible to
compete with our excellent Public
schools, and the undertaking has been
practically abandoned. The old school
house still standing near the meeting

been several times enlarged, and school

The most recent phase Of Byron fam
lily scandal is the publication of a soppy
piece of gingle, claimed as an answer by
Lady Byron to Lord Ryron's "Fare thee
well.' From all accounts it appears that
Lady Byron was very cstimable woman:
and whatever may have been the origin,
nature, or extent of the domestic trouble
that clouded her life, whether she told
the truth to Mrs. Stowe or not, whether
she was rational or insane at that time,
she should have been spared this new
accusation. If, however, she did write
this poem, would it not have been the
wiser, as we'll as kinder part TO have al
lowed it to pass out of notice and be for
gotten, rather than bring it up now, to
the injury Of her fame, even in so small
matter as literary reputation? Like
Pauline, I" Her wrongs should make her

Pillow MANUFAcroRY.

Having little leisure, we called at the Empire
Pillow Shop of Col. Oran Perry, on Main between 7th
and 9th Streets and were conducted by the Colonel,
who is now sole proprietor, through his establish
ent and took brief note Of his capacity and facii-
ties for manufacturing Flows. He has one of the
Gaar Steam Engines, that runs all his machinery for
keeping up the fires at the forges sharpens and poll

in short, does all the blowing that is done about
the works. whilst the employees do the striking,
king continuous Sanvil chorus" of most glorious
and interesting music, hammered out by horny
hands attached to stalw art arms, propelled by
cuar power and directed by intelligent skill that
forces perfection.
We passed through the room where the woodwork
of the Flows fashioned, and found all busily
gage in finishing up the handles, d.. Thence we
passed up stairs, where the Flows were undergoing
''tYue blue" that's the Col 3 coors) painting
Here we found quite number of different sized
Flows, either painted or waiting for their turn Then
went down into the West room, the first floor,
where we were shown some OF the finest Flows
have ever seen. and among them the celebrated Sod
State Fair. This is beauty, and is we'll calculated
to caase the palms of practical farmer TO itch to
seze the handles and guide tho share into the sod.
We almost imagined we could do blowing with
ferens sizes he manufactures, from No. to Z, one,
two and three-horse, the Sod, aud Road Plow. Tho
latter Plow is irOnclad and model of strength and
is just tho implement for Corporations and Road
Districts.
We were permitted to examine quite a number of
orders the Col. has received from different parts Of
the West for his Flows, and, in all due Difference to
the other Pfow manufacturers in our city, we must
be permitted to say, that, for the short time Col Per-
has been operating in this brancl. Of business, and
for the amount OF capital he has invested he is doing
BETTER business than other establishment here.
During the past year, he sold near two thousand
Flows. and we have no doubt he will sell the present
year three thousand judging from present Indications
and the demands now flowing in. Success 70 him.
