A STRONG CAsE.-A fat old gentle
man who had been bit in the calf of hii
leg by dog came to Jonah in tower
ing passion, decairing it was Jonah'i
dog that had bitten him. Expecting
an action for damages the wag drew up
the following articles rs the ground for
his defence:
|. By testimony in favor of the gene
rel good conduct of my dog can prove
that nothing could make him 50 forget
ful of his dignity as to bite "calf'"
2. He is blind, and cannot see to bite.
3. Even if he could see to bite 1T would
be utterly impossible for him to 90 out
of the way to do SO on account OF his
severe lameneSs.
4. Granting his eyes and his legs to be
good he has no teeth.
.. My dog died six weeks since
q. never had dog.

4 COMMITTEE once paid a visit to II
school, to hear some OF the classes go
through the exercise of what Is termed
object lessons. ''Now, can you tell me
any thing about heat ?" Was one of the
questions. \ bright little boy held
forth his hand, in token of some knowl'
edge in reserve. "Woll, boy" said the
teacher, "what do you know" "iea'
expands, cold contracts" was the ans
wer. "Very good now give me an eX
ample" "In summer, the days are
long in winter, the day are short"

hler was married in Massa, husetts, in 1S4s,
10 Mr.. Pomeroy. In 1853. Pomerov. wjsl-
'rg to be rid OF bis wife, wi III whom be was
living in tie Eay State, Went to Illinois
ana sued for divorce thereon grounds not
recognized by the laws o. Massachusetts.
Mrs. Pomeroy, equally anx BUS to be freed
from her ciankns matrime tial chains, went
at the same time to Connecticut, and there
instituted divorce sui, Subsequently,.
however, she went to Chi esgo, and put in
an answer in the suit tS her husband.
Afterwards The iIImated phir by collusiou.
as Mr. kinnier alleges, prSaured decree Of
absolute divorce. This dettee, il is claim
ed, was fra"den'ly prOcuret sakis null
i'y under the laws of botf I'D lsacbuset,s
and Illinois In June, lsA, the ex-Mrs.
pomOroy was married to N Kinuier, and

IMPORTANT RAILROAD MEETING.-A
meeting Of parties interested in the Port
land d Ogdensburg Railroad was held at
the Crawford House, on Tuesday and
Wednesday of last week; There were
present Horace and Franklin Fairbanks,
Calvin Morrill,, Jonathan Ross, w. Brig
ham, G. w Hendee, A B. Jewell and ..
Abel from Vermont; and Messrs. Ray,
Brigham, Sinclair, Hartshorn aud Sum
mer, OF n h; and Messrs. Anderson,
Wa,hhurne, Donnell, Deering and Spring
from Maine.
The meeting was entirely harmonious,
and the necessary steps were taken TO
merge the New Hampshire Company
into the Portland and Ogdensurg Compa-
ny, of Maine, SO that the latter corpora
tion has the entire control to tka Con-
uecticut river. Mr.. Mitchell, an expert
enced engineer, is now engaged in look
ing over the routes west of the Fabyan
place. The work will be pushed vigor-
ou-ly in Vermont and Maine the coming
summer aud fall The eastern portion of
the line, from Portland to the foot of Sc
bago, will be under contract for oonstruc-
tion by the 10Th inst, and the balance of
the line from the latter point to the Fa-
hyan place will be located Immediately.
Engineers will be at work the present
month, locating the road through Yer
mont. We think that there can be no
question of the speedy construction of
the road from Portland via st. Johnsbury
and tho Lamoillez Valley Railroad TO
Swanton.-v,E. JohnSduy Times.

with large iron bar, began his work in

But his troubles did not end here; no

He bad 30 nearly succeeded in carrying
out his design as to make it spot of great
interest to all who visit the beach" He
labored with his own hands, and with his
own money employed others to assist. In
winters at his home in Vermont, he had
with his own hspds painted signs for the
names of the walks and shady hooks.

many other similar names, that seemed to
him appropriate to the various localities
His work was purely disipterested one,
and he could only have been prompted by
his love of the beautiful. He is repre-
sented as man Of culture, and his works
here abundantly show it. His age was
sixty-fve, and the exclamation of all is,
