MIssIssIPPI.-Three bills were intro
duced into Congress Monday for the adj
mission of Mississippi, and none of them
proposed fundamental conditions. Mem
bers of the House Reconstruction Com
mittee, however, intend to tack on the
same provisos that were put on the Vir-
ginia bill. Nothing will be done with
the question until the President sends to
Congress the official result and official no
tifcation of the ratification of the ff-
teenth amendment. General Ames called
upon the President during the day, and
presented the official records of the organ
ization of the Mississippi Legislature, the
adoption of the constitutional amend
ment, and election of United States SEN
ators according to law. =

Of the seventy. four miles surveyed fifty
nine are through an open country and fif-
teen through the wilderness. Forty-five
miles are along the courses of rivers
The heaviest grade will not reach seventy
five feet to the mile. The great problem
of practicable route is solved, and it
only remains now for the friends of the

APPEARANCE OF THE RINDERPEsT
IN New YoRK.--A malady partaking
somewhat of the nature of rinderpest,
which few years ago created such fright
full havoc among the horned cattle
throughout Europe, the United States
and the New Dominion, has made its ap-
pearance in Westchester county, New
York, and is particularly malignant in
the neighborhood of West Farms, where
the larger number of cases have proved
fatal. 1t does not appear that any pre-
cautionary sanitary measures have been
taken yet to eradicate or arrest the dis
ease.

MILITARY CONDITION OF RUSSIA
st. Petersburgh dispatch say that from a
review of the military position of Russia
in 1869, derived from official sources, it
appears that the re-equipments of the
army will be completed by April next, at
which date all the troops will be Furnished
with the new arms. During 1869, 1000
pieces of artillery have been sent to the
new Notifications. The military budget
for 1870 will provide for an expenditure
of 140,000,000 roubles, being 100000
more than last year.

How often we hear this expression from per-
sons reading advertisements of Patent Medicines,
and in nine cases out of ten they may be right.
1t is over % years since introduced DIR. Tobias
Venetian Liniment, to the public. I had no
money to advertise it, so left it for sale with
few druggists and storekeepers through small
section of the country, many taking it with great
reluctance; but told them to let any one have
it, and if it did not do all L stated on my ram-
phlet, no one need pay for it. In some stores two
or three bottles were taken on trial by persons
present L was, by many, thought crazy, and
that would be the last they would see of me.
But knew my medicine was no humbug. In
about two months began to receive orders for
more Liniment, some calling it my valuable Lini-
ment, who had refused to sign receipt when
left it at their store. Now my sales are millions
of bottles yearly, and all for cash. I warrant it
superior to any other medicine for the cure of
Group, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Collie, Vomiting,
Spasms, Sea-sickness, as an internal remedy. 1t
is perfectly innocent to take internally-see oath

THE BRITISH REvIEws.-Messrs.
Leonard, Scott & Co., of New York, are
out with their annual announcement of
foreign quarterlies. For many years this
concern and the private company which
was its forerunner and which gives it its
name, have published at very cheap
rate to subscribers, the four prominent
British Quarterly Reviews, viz: The
Edinburgh" the "London Quarterly"
the "North British" and the "Westmins-
ter" and also "Blackwood's Magazine
was not long behind; and all these have
been sustained with wonderful vigor up
to the present time. Though fire.
quently papers on the same topics will be
found in all four of the Reviews, there
will almost always be such differences in
the mode of treatment as to make all in
teresting and valuable to any one who
desires to keep himself posted on the
literary, scientific, religious topics which
occupy the European mind. There are
no American magazines which C an take
the place of these publications, whether
regard is had to the great Importance of
the subject to which they treat, or to the
comprehensiveness and ability with which
those subjects are discussed. "Black-
woods" Magazine is more literary in its
haracter-though not exclusively So
than the others and though the Ameri-
can reader will find abundant occasions OF
distrust of what it says Of our own
country, it is always readable in high
degree.
The cheap rate at which these reprints
are furnished, comparee with the cost of
the originals as issued from the British
press, is remarkable, and must secure a
large circulation.

CHITTENDEN COUNTY SCHOOL SUPER
INTEND ENTs' MEETING.-The Superin-

of Chit anden, met in convention at Col
chester Centre, Goth of January, 1870.
John L. Smith. of South Burlington, was
elected Chairman, and A. G. Whittemore
of Milton, Secretary. The following re-
solutions were passed:
ReS0EUed, That it is highly important
that the uperintendents' report be
printed and distributed to all the families
of the town.
ReS0I0ed, That we will give our services,
and use our best efforts with the Pruden-
tial Committees, to secure the introduction
of the needed apparatus into the schools
of the various districts.
| Resot0ed, In view especially of the ne
cessity to guard against immoral in
fiuences, that it is the duty of Superin-
tendents to inspect and report upon the
condition of the school out buildings and
that we earnestly press upon the attention
of Prudential Committees and teachers
the need of vigilant and constant atten-
ton to the same.
Interesting topics were discussed, and
valuable suggestions made, especially
upon the question, rs il possible to secure
the attendance of Prudential Committees
and parents upon the Public Examina-
ton ?"
1t was the unanimous opinion of the
meeting that the new method of examina-
ton had already worked great good, as
many incompetent teachers had been re.
fused schools, while others had found it
necessary to inform themselves before
teaching others.
