MARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH. Col.
Howell Sayre of East Thotford, had a
narrow escape from death a few days ago.
He had gone to his pasture for his cows,
and while there he was attacked by a
two years old bull, and though he made
a sharp fight with cane, was knocked
down and then rolled off bank by the
Infatuated animal, which last was proba-
bly, the only thing that saved him from
being terribly gored, if not killed. He
was entirely helpless for several days,
but is now recovering. The bull was SO
wild with fury that it required three
hours labor of several men to secure
him.

The Presidents Trip to Rutland.

The special train bearing the Presi-
dent and his party, left the depot in this
village at AZ o'clock. At Rockingham
and Bartonsville crowds of people had
collected, but the train made no stop
AT CHESTER
a large crowd had collected, and Gov.
Page introduced the President, when
Maj Rounds called for three cheers and
a tiger, which were given with sol
dier's will. Maj. Rounds was after
wards introduced to the President, and
the train moved. No stops were made
at Gassett's or Cavendish,
AT PRoCToRsvILLE
the train halted for moment and the
crowd cheered the President, who came
out of the car and bowed acknowledge
ment, and all along the route could be
seen knots of people and ladies waving
handkerchiefs at their residences.
AT LUDLOW
there was also large assemblage who
heartily cheered, and the President bow
ed his thanks. AT this place also, the
President came out of the car and rode
on the engine, to the Mt Holly Summit,
for the sake of seeing the rock cuts and
mountain scenery. The train arrived in
Rutland at nearly six o'clock, where a
great crowd had assembled and where
he was received in a most enthusiastic
manner. Stopping about half an hour
in Rutland, the President left for Sara
toga, and thus substantially ended his
journey in Vermont, which was one con-
slant ovation.

ELECTION IN ANDovER THIS YEAR.
For many years not solitary democrat
ic vote has been cast in Andover, and
yet it is understood one lives there but
has very courteously refrained from cloud.
ing the fair fame of that town, in its
unanimous vote, and has either abstained
from voting altogether, or gone to Ches-
ter and made them the recipient of the
error he has not yet repented Of. Inas-
much as this is a quiet year, we suggest
that at the election next Tuesday, the re-
publicans of Andover hunt up this soli-
tary democrat and have him vote once
more in that town. Let him be formally
escorted to the polls, with much "cir-
cumstance, pomp and show" say be-
tween two lines of the good republicans
of that town, and if, when he gets at the
end of the line of such respectable men,
(and women, if you wish, for we suppose
that is soon coming y he still persists in
his ancient desire of casting democrat
ic ballot, why of course have him do it,
and then when the returns come in from
old Andover, what laundering gain it
will be for the cause of democracy
throughout the county. 1t will be gain
of one thousand per cent, or any other
per cent, and the opportunity to gather
such glad tidings are rare and should not
be lost Let us have peace and at
least one democratic vote from Andover
this year, if possible

The President in Bellows Falls.

our people were unexpectedly honored
with the presence of the President of the
United States on Saturday afternoon
last, including his family and several
other distinguished persons. 1t first be-
came known on Friday afternoon that
Gen. Grant would pass through this
place, and Saturday morning, a meeting
OF citizens was held, and it was resolved
to give the President as good reception
as the limited time for preparation would
admit, and accordingly, on motion of
Capt. Walter Taylor, A. N. Swain was
chosen chairman, and c. B. Eddy, secre-
tary, and on motion of j. ID. Bridgman,
the following persons were chosen COM
mittee of reception: A. N. Swain, Wy
man Flint, VIM. II. johnson. Captain
Taylor was elected Marshal
In accordance with the arrangements,
on the arrival OF the Presidential train
from the Vermont Central Railroad, a
salute was fired, and the President and
his party were conducted to carriages in
waiting, and, preceded by the Keene
Cornet Band, rode from the depot through
the Square to the Island House.
The Square was of course lined with
people and the buildings dressed in ma
tional colors. The stores of Geo. o. and
S. III. Guild, N. II. Farr & Co, o. d.
Gray, DIR. Barker and M. D. jackson &
CO., were all handsomely decorated with
" red, white and blue" and flags were
hung on Mammoth Block, in front of
the offices of w. S. Myers, j. d. Bridg-
man, the TIMES, Cooper and Turner's
and johnson & Rabbits stores, and
Others, which together with the republic
can and democratic campaign flags of
last year in the breeze, made the Square
present gay and lively appearance, be-
yond probably, what was ever seen in it
before. A large flag belonging to DIR.
L. c. Barker was hung out over the
town clerk S Office, at the bottom of which
in large letters were the following words
"WELCoME, THRICE WELCOME 1t
was plainly evident that the President
fully appreciated the demonstration.
He frequently bowed to the people and
especially to the ladies who waved their
handkerchief as he passed, whether they
were few in their own windows or in lar
ger numbers on some of the balconies or
piazzas. This act of impartiality was
noticed by many and very naturally gave
the President great popularity among
our people. Arriving at DR.. Barker's
flag, he bowed his acknowled cement of
the motto.
AT the Island House, he was escorted
to the west balcony and at the south end,
was introduced to the crowd by Go~e~ser

One Of the civil engineers on the Cen
tral Pacific Railroad thus describes a
pond of warm water in what seems to be
the crater of an extinct volcano, near
the North Fork of the Humboldt river,
in Nevada: 81 must tell you about one
remarkable natural curiosity We
camped near-a curious hot spring. 1t
is situated in a crater about two hun
dred feet in diameter, on the top of a
knoll which rises about fifty feet above
the river. In the bottom of the crater
is a long elliptical pool, perhaps enc
hundred and fifty feet long in one di-
rection, and seventy-fve in the other
a mammoth bath-tub in shape. The
depth of the water is unknown, no lines
brought here having bees long enough
to reach the bottom. In one part the
water is just hot enough to enable the
hand to be held in it, and the remain
der of the pool varies from this 10 luke
warmuess. The walls are nearly verti.
cal, and you can imagine the luxury OF
a plunge into it, with no fear of strik'
ing bottom. Jast think, too, of swim.

The Reasons why.

Some of the reasons why Dr. ROback's Blood
Pills should be kept in every family are,
Because they can be employed In all cases
where a family physic' is required, and are
perfectly safe In their administration at all
times.
Because they act promptly in removing all
Instructions from the bowels, afording imme-
date relief in collie or other pains.
Because they are Liver Pill, acting direct
ly on the spleen and liver, removing the bile
and assisting digestion.
Because in taking them they do not inter
fere with the regular avocation Of the patient,
or leave the bowels constipated.
Because they are made both with and with
out sugar coating, thus adapting them to the
use of every body.
Because they being purely vegetable are
perfectly harmless and can oe taken by chill
dreu OF adults at all stages OF periods Of life.
Because! they are especially adapted to the
use Of persons Of sedentary habits, and TO the
use Of females about to become mothers.
Because! they are what their name indicates,
Blood Pill searching out diseases Of the blood
leaving the system in the full vigor Of health.
Because they are perfectly gentle in their
operation, causing no gripping, and are safer,
surer, and every way better purgative pill than
has ever before been offered TO the public.
Because when followed in their use by Ro
backs Stomach Bitters, they cure the very
worst cases 81 dyspepsia
Because they can be purchased at any druE
store at the extremely low price Of twenty-five
cents per box.
Sold by all druggists everywhers.

From the New York Sun.

A curious will case has just been de-
cided in the London Court of Probate.
The testator, Mr.. VIM. Anderson, q re-
tired merchant, died at Torquay in No
yember, 1867. He was upwards of
ninety years of age, and very infirn.
For year or two before he died his ar
ticulation was so indistinct that even
those constantly with him could hardly
understand what he meant except by
signs. In 1888 he gave 100000 by deed
of gift to his only surviving son, Will
liam, to whom he also bequeathed the
bulk of his property by will made in
the following year. Mr.. Hunt, the tes-
tator's former partner, and Mr.. Gotbed,
a gentleman of independent means at
Torquay, were named executors along
with the son, with a legacy of El00
each, another of { $50 being left to Miss
Clarke, the testator's nurse. Toward
tie end of 1865 the testator became very
weak in his mind, proposing marriage
not only to his nurse but to several
other ladies, Notwithstanding his intirm
and almost imbeCile condition. A con-
sultation was held, at which Mr.. Got
bed, esteemed very pious man, "laid
the matter before the Lord" The son
suggested that he should have power of
attorney to manage his fathers affairs,
and left one with Mr.. GOtbed to be filled
up, but this was never done. In the be-
ginning of 1867 the son was induced to
deposit all his fathers papers and secu-
rites with the family solicitor. Mr..
Gotbed continued prayerfully attentive
to the testator and his affairs; Mr.. Hunt
made repeated visits to TOrquay, and
Miss Clarke remained as nurse. When
the old man died the sou was astound-
ed by the production of will dated
March, 1867, of which he had never be-
fore heard. This left him only 10000,
the property being mainly divided be-
tween Hunt and Gotbed, Miss Clarke's
share having grown since the former
will from $50 into an annuity of tlOO
year. Mr.. Hunt and Mr.. Gotbed de-
clared in court chat they had done all
they could to persuade the testator to
make the will in his sons favor. The
jury seem to have thought that they
would therefore not be sorry to see their
own wishes fulfilled, and cancelled the
will of lS61

4 curious communication from DR..
MoNTUCCI appears in the recent report
OF the French Academy of Science. NJ.
dc CTety, who observed the solar eclipse
of August last, on Sarah Island, oppo-
site Alden, describes rs follows n phe-
nomenOn hitherto unheard of in the
annals of astronomy:

tuberances on the moons limb; they

from the solar rays. Fifteen minutes

emerged from the moon, the same ap-
peudages were seen more strongly lila
minated, and the better distingulshable
from the lunar disc their summItS had
