WoMAN.-An exchange says, we can
always tell what sort of woman man
marries, by the way he treats the printer
If he gets a common wife he forgets the
printer: altogether. If he gets tolerable
good wife, he will send in the notice of
his marriage. If he gets very good one
he will send the printer nice slice of cake
accompanying the notice. If he gets an
extra one, he will seed nice slice of cake
and bottle OF wine with the notice. And
if he gets glorious, angelic creature-all
affection and goodness-he is sure to send
the printer nice lot of cake and wine and
FIVE dollars for years subscription for the

SPEECH OF SENATOR ANTHONY.

The Ninth Army Corps held a reunion
near Providence on the 7th instant, at
which, 1000 veterans were present. Sen
ator Anthony, in the absence of Governor
Pedleford, responded for the State of
Rhode Island, and spoke as follows:
GENERAL: You have assigned to me the
Governors duty. 1t is twenty years since
l occupied that place; but l have with
great qualification participated in these
banquet festivities. 1t is with uncommon
satisfaction that I see so many gallant men
assembled to renew the associations that
were formed in the camp aud on the field.
and to strengthen the friendship that date
back from the wearisome march, from the
impetuous charge, from the bed of slow and
painful suffering and from the shouts of
victory, to congratulate each other upon
the final accomplishment of that great work
in which they bore conspicuous and an
honorable part. The results of it are seen
in rescued country, in an undivided
Union, in the blessings of national prosper
ity and individual happiness the like of
which the sun does not visit in its diurnal
course, and victory before us with such
greatness and glory that the utmost visions
OF patriotism cannot exaggerate Cap
plause.) And this is the country which
you have helped to save These are in.
stitutions which you have helped to con-
firm in the presence of men who have done
so much. Mere takers may well be silent
We may praise the great deeds of the war
You participated in them. We bid you,
in the name of the State of Rhode Island
hearty welcome to the State to whose
ancient rerown your valor has added fresh
laurels; for although the glory you have
won is for the whole country it reflects a
peculiar lustre upon Rhode Island. AL
though more than half of the loyal States
were represented in your gallant ranks,
Rhode Island sent you four regiments and
four batteries; and may add that she sent
you twenty regiments when she sent you
General Burnside. Loud applause, three
cheers and tiger, the company rising.1
do not wonder at the shouts or applause
with which you received the mention of
his name whose eye so often looked down
upon your severed ranks, giving the conf
dence and courage to every man who met
his glance, whose sword cut the pathway to
victory, whose kindness and gentleness
have soothed the wounded soldier and con,
soled the bed of death. (Applause.) You
have given him all that soldiers can give a
loved and honored commander-you have
crowned him with our highest civic honors,
and we have gladly given him the distinc-
tlon Of the first citizen of our republic of
Rhode Island. IF slander has ever dared
to assail his impregnable reputation it has
recoi!ed upon those who have uttered it,
breaking upon the rock of his reputation
their unavailing force. loud applause
and cheers for General Burnside and
grons for Senator Sprague.) 1 again, my
friends, welcome you to our soil The
title which you have won and the national
credit shall never be ignored

SHERMAN's ACCOUNT OF THE MAR

SHERMAN's ACCOUNT OF THE MARCH
TO THE SEA.-In his address at West
Point the other day, Gen. Sherman thus
alluded to his famous "march to the sea :"

in which of these books l had learned the
secret of leading armies on long and diff

deer in the swamps Of the Edisto, the
Cooper, and the Santee, and had seen with
my own eyes that they could be passed with
wagons; that in the spring of 1874 l had
ridden on horseback from Marietta, Ga,
to the Valley of the Tennessee, and back
to Augusta, passing in my course over the
fields of Altoona, of Kenesaw and Atlanta,
where afterward it fell to my share to CON-
mand armies and to utilize the knowledge
thus casually gained. Again in 1849 and
in 1850 l was in California, and saw arrive

A NEW YORK ADVENTURE,

In one of the most splendid houses in
Fifth Avenue, New York, lives lady of
great wealth and expensive tastes, who is
noted for the splendor or her diamonds
Perhaps half million dollars in these
stones were kept in safe in her dressing
room, and the key of the safe was locked
in box in private drawer. On coming
up from dinner one day, she found the key
on her dressing bureau, and valuable dia-
monds in old fashioned settings, which
were heir-looms, had been stolen. On ap-
plying to Mr.. Tiffany, the jeweler, for ad-
vice he recommended her to advertise for the
lost diamonds, offering just as large re-
ward as she felt disposed to give, and
promising no questions should be asked
The next morning note was slipped un-
der the hall door saying the jewels would
be delivered in the lady's own house at
such an hour in the afternoon, in the
presence of herself and her husband only.
The reward offered, by the way, was SIS, 900.
The lady sent tor Mr.. Tifany's head setter
of diamonds to be on hand to inspect the
stones, least they should prove limitations.
The hour passed, and the whole evening,
but no jewels appeared. The next morn
ing another note was slid under. the door,
saying that it was useless for the lady to
have spectators concealed in the back par
lor, as she had on the previous day, or tc
send for judge of diamonds, the writer
was gentlaman, and would return the
real stones. He next appointed place Of
meeting on vacant lot near the Central
Park, where he would receive the reward
at the hands of single person, and de-
liver the stones Further, the money must
contain no marked bills, and no large ones
which would excite remarks when changed
If she chose to comply with these terms
she should have her diamonds; otherwise
she would never see them again, as New
York was growing to hot for the writer, and
he meant to leave A servant man went t.
the spot to receive the package of stones; ht
was met by gentlemany person whose fac,
was concealed and the bargain was made
The jewels were all right. The robbie
had slipped in the basement after grocer
boy at dusk, and hid himself till the famil,
were at dinner, and went up to the dress
ing room. Here he was interrupted twic
by the entrance of maid, he went int
one closet of the room while the girl wa
in the other and if it had not been for thi
hindrance he would have taken all tn,
diamonds, and no reward would nave temp
ted him to bring them back.

BUILDING Prochaska and Co
are erecting neat brick structure near
the corner Of Erie and 9th street to be
used as a moulding shop, in addition to
their extensive foundry.
We also notice the erection Of a neat
frame dwelling further down Erie street,
near the scene of the late conhagration.
On the south side there are several
dwellings in course of construction which
add materially to the appearance Of that
part of the town.
MIR. E. B. Treat is preparing to put
up building on Buffalo street. of which
the upper story is to be used as print
ing office. A few good looking buildings
are needed on that street, and we think
this will be one of them.
The large addition to the Northwes-
tern House is almost ready for occupa
ton, and is one of the finest blocks in
town.
We are glad to note so many improve
ments as it is an evidence of the increas-
ing growth of the modelvillage on the west
shore.

kindness of Mr. Geo Barker we had an
opportunity to ride after his fast horse
around the race course on the fair grounds,
recently. Under the auspices of the
Driving Park Association these

the alarm of fire was given, and dense
smoke proceeding from the vicinity Of

tracks for that part ofthe town arrived at
which it was found that barn, the prop

being consumed 1t being near the river
the engines were soon playing upon the
flames, and in few nome ats succeeded
in quenching them. The barn contained
three tons of ray, belonging to one Mr..
Brookman, a German living near there,
which was, of course, entirely consumed.
There was no insurance upon the build

Some Years since poor but talent
ed gentleman of the medical profession
conceived the idea that If he could pro-
duce medicine of universal application
and extraordinary merit and make it
known, he could not only enrich himself
and escape the drudgery of Physicians
life, but also benefit the sick in greater
measure than by his private practice.
He therefore consulted with the best
Physicians he cou d find and the result
was the production of the Judson' S
Mountain Herb Pills, famous and most
successful medicine He began in a
small way to make the Mountain Herb
Pills known by advertising them and
such was the value of his Pills, that in a
few years he had not only ammassed a
fortune but had that rare satisfaction for
rich man, of having relieved the SICK,
and benefited his fellow-men in every
part of the country, as thousands of
grateful testimonials could prove The
Judsons Mountain Herb Pills have
cured Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, Fe
male Irregularities, and all Bilious dis
orders. This little sketch serves both to
adorn tale and point moral, Dr. JUDD
sons Pills were meritorious and the doc
tor himself knew the value of printers
