SOMETHING NEw.-There is a "new
thing well worthy of attention, called
the Centrifugal Threshing Machine, pa
tented by Messrs. Rhoades & Hamlin.-
The design of it is to enable farmers to
do their own threshing without calling
to their aid a travelling threshing ma
chine. with enough horses and men to
eat small farmer out of house and home.
The machine does its work we'll, and
everybody who is curious to see or inter-
ested in it should examine it and try it.
We are satisfied that it has real merit.
and therefore take pleasure in calling to
1t the attention of farmers and the pub
lie at large. The manner of driving it
Is new to US, and involves a curious and
valuable application of mechanical pow
ers. 1t continues to be the topic of con-
versation for a large class of our citizens.
Many of our farmers have availed them
selves of the opportunity to see test of
the threshing done with this machine.
which is done to their full satisfaction
without breaking either the berry of the
grain orthe staaw, which it leavesstraipbt
SO that it may be readily bound.-Nar.

The Senate did a big days work on
Friday, having been in session all Fri
day night and just alter I o'clock Satur-
day morning, reached a vote by which
the Fifteenth Amendment Bill was pass
ed 43 to s. This bill is not only design
ed to enforce the fifteenth amendment,
but is also intended to prevent fraudulent
voting, and therefore very naturally met
the determined and filli5ustering opposi-
ton of the eight democrats in the Senate
who all night long offered frivolous
amendments and spoke against time sim
ply to delay its passage. For the last
three hours Of the Session the republic
cans sat silent, and the democrats kept
on talking having it all to themselves,
till they became exhausted, when the
bill finally passed by the unanimous vote
Of the republicans, the Senate having
been in continuous session nineteen hours.

OPIUM EATING IN CHIcAGo.-Ihe
Chicago correspondent ofthe Troy Times
writes: Perhaps it may surprise you to
know that there are not less than seven
thousand in this city who are slaves to
the baleful habit Of opium eating. AT
ter careful investigation and inquiry in-
to this matter, / am confdant these fig
ures do not over-estimate the number,
and included in it are not few Of those
who rank among the best society" l
know of several ladies and gentleman
whose appetite for this dreamy. intoxioat-
ing drug is rapidly leading them from
the proud influence they hold in society
and fashionable circles to state of pre-
mature imbecility. The fact this habit
does not constantly exhibit its hideous
forms and features with the same public.
ity as dram-drinking, or the shameless
ness Of the " social evil, is the probable
reason why it has been so seldom referr-
ed to, and apparently so little under
stood. In company with physician |
visited one of these miserable victims a
few days since, and more pitiable
wreck of humanity it would be difficult
to find. There is no other habit which
leaves its victim in so fearful a moral
and physical condition and which exer
cises so terrible an influence over body
and brain. 1t holds on like wise, is as
pitiless as the grave, and drags its victim
irresistibly down. There is, however,
one reason which operates to restrict to a
certain extent the use OF this drug, name
ly its expensiveness. Not few in this
city have become so addicted to its use
that dose of sixty grains day is none
too much. Now, as its use soon makes
its victim worthless to earn anything,
there are of course many who are not
able to spend from S1.75 to 50 per day
to crafty their abnormal appetites. Our
retail druggists inform me that its use is
vastly increasing, and that it seems i'm.
possible to stem the tide Of this most ter
rible and ruinous of all forms of dissipa-
ton.

The Governor Question

A gentleman of influence and promi-
snence in the south part of Windsor
County, writes us relative to the COVER
nor question as follows:
:" / trust you will excuse me for saying
that am personally in favor of the Hon.
Julius Converse of Woodstock, and can
say with truth that nine-tenths of the
people of this, vicinity with whom l have
conversed on the,subject, agree with me
on that question. ] have known Mr..
Converse for more than thirty years IA
miliarly, and regard him eminently fit
ted for that position. Such would be my
opinion aside from any local question,
and If that is entitled to be considered
as it is certainly by custom, it seems to
me the matter must be settled in favor
of his nomination"

burg, N. Y, says; EARLY this morning
it was discovered that the telegraph
lines leading to this place, including the
cables across the st. Lawrence river, had
been cut or put out of running order.
The report soon gained currency that it
was the work of Fenians, and events
have since confirmed this report. The
train due here at 11.12 A. M. brought
from Rome and DeKalb junction three
carloads of men known to be Fenians.
Four extra cars we're sent down the Og-
densburg and Lake Champlain railroad
to take these men to Potsdam junction
and thence east. Alta settlemeet in the
town of Wadding, 20 miles from this
city, down the St. Lawrence, the utmost
activity prevailed all night. Large
quantities of arms, ammunition and pro-
visions which have been stored here since
March, were last night put in motion for
the Canadian side of the border. AT
Prescott the volunteers have been called
out and are now drilling in preparation
for defending the place. The total alb
sence of regulars from this portion of the
Dominion makes this unlocked for move
ment more terrible to the people. A
battery has been ordered from Ottawa
and will arrive tonight.

Fraudulent voting was sperpetrated in
New York city at the election last week,
beyond all precedent, and in the most
abandoned manner. The democratic
press Of the city freely admit the frauds,
and excuse themselves on the pretence
that the republicans practiced the same
game. If this is true it is only so much
the worse, and every republican and
every democrat engaged in any such ras-
,cality should alike be held responsible
and punished. 1t is very significant,
however, that where thegreatest amount
of repeating was made, there we have
the greatest aggregate vote and
greatest increase of democratic MAORI
ties.

Three Grand Things for Virginia
and the Country.

There are three movements now well begun
which are destined TO affect very iayorahly the
future of Virginia and West Virginia, First
We are informed by travellers from tina, part OF
the country that there is very strong current OF
immigration setting in 10 Virginia, and there are
foretokens of a still larger settlement to come
On all the railroads and frequented routes OF ira
vel, and at hotels may be found numerous pro-
speeding parties from Northern and Eastern states
and good many actual settlers moving in, both
European and American. There never was as
much activity in Virginia lands as there is at this
time. Closely connected with this movement OF
population, we arc informed also that the iron
manufacturers of New York and Pennsylvania,
knowing the extent and richness Of the iron ores
of Virginia, have. during the past few months.
been purchasing number of estates west of the
Blue Ridge with view of erecting furnaces
thereon, in the conviction that iron can be pro-
duced there for a little more than one half its
present cost on the banks the Lehigh. The
extension of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad
from its present terminus, at the White Sulphur
Springs, to the Ohio River, is movement calcu
lated to accelerate and give success to the influx
of population and capital. This road, as is well
known, traverses the iion beds Of Virginia and
the far.famed coal fields Of West Virginia, and
connects the waters Of the Atlantic with all that
vast system Of land and water transport reaching
between the Kanawha Valley and the Pacific
Coast. 1t will make of Virginia the highway Of
great east and west traffic, while the two former
will make of her the storehouse and the workshop
of our coming industry.
Coal and iron have been the foundation Of
much the greater part of England's wealth Yir-
ginia and West Virginia together contain not on
ly more COAL but also more iron than the whole
of Great Britain. They yield ii at almost no cost,
and on virginia's soil iron will yet be produced
in quantities equal to the present product OF Great
Britain, and at less absolute cost The great
work of the Chesapeake and Ohio Road win be to
mite these separate ingredients of the iron, and
to distribute the metal in untold quantities to the
iron, and TO distribute the metal in untold guam.
titles to the East and to the West. A few II onths
will see the road in operation to the Ohio, and
the new era of mining and manufactures begun.
BY reference TO the advertisement Of Mes srs
Fisk & Hatch ON another page, it win be see
that the Bonds Of this great Enterprise are offer
ed to investors, combining every feature which
safety and convenience would suggest, at rates
which cannot but prove tempting to surplus cap

Among the Fenian rumors is one that
Mosby, the celebrated rebel guerilla, is
somewhere above or near St. Adams,
ready to take charge of some Fenian
Cavalry, as soon as they can get Cana
dian horses enough to mount their men.
We don't suppose there is any truth in
this story, but as MosbY and his cause
had the very cordial sympathy Of our
Canadian cousins during the war, it
would be highly poetic, that he should
now turn upon those who harbored and
gave refuge to the St. Albans raiders.

none, but rather took more satisfaction
in recording what might be observed on

any favoritism o. our own. The question
