A New Book Of the greatest interest and i'm
portance. Written from high moral and physi
illogical standpoint, by an eminent physician and
medical professor, il shows how Satan is working
ont his subtle and dangerous designs through
our most sacred domestic and social relations
Pure-miuded, but out-spoken and aggressive the
author handles the delicate subject treated of
without gloves, but 10 such manner not to
minister TO pruriont curiosity. The Physical
regeneration Of the race, is a subject justly en-
lanthropista, and this book, it is believed will
contribute to that end just in proportion as II has

There are 1919 Congregational
churches in the State of Vermont.-
Three new ones were formed the past
year. There are connected with
these churches, seventy-fve settled
pastors and eighty-one acting pastors;
the remaining forty-three churches
are vacant. Fourteen ministers were
dismissed during the past year, and
nine settled; and fifty-six are without
change, making in all two hundred
and twelve. or thirteen more than
there are churches. One half of the
churches that enjoy the regular min
istrations of the word, are supplied
by the Vermont Domestic Missionary
Society.
The present membership of those
churches is 10000, and the number
of families connected with the congre-
cations is 1000. The additions to
these churches the past year were
1900; 500 by profession, and 400 by
letter.
The membership of the Sabbath
schools, under the care of these church
es is 10000. There were 1863 infant,
400 adultbaptisms the past year. Cor
tributions to the various benevolent
objects, $4,000, or an average of
about $3.50 per church member.

The SPHYNX.-Rev. G. S. Robinson,
writing from Egypt, says:
"At the foot Of the pyramids, imme-
diately below US as we sat on the
lodges, there rises out of the verdure-
less sand one of the most singular
idols that human ingenuity ever imag-
ined one Of the awkwardest bodies
and one of the most massive heads
that human hands ever carved. No
line of beauty has it anywhere to
exhibit. The ears are enormous; the
nose is gone; the mouth is ragged T.;
the beard is broken; the open eyes
stare blankly and closely down upon
you; the wig bags fatty and haringly
out on either side; the chin has lost
half its stony hair, and all its sem
blance Of dignity, the face was former
ly painted and the red is washed off
on the weather side; altogether the
structure has pretty much gone under
the effects Of age, and has quite the
look of used-up piece of property.
But there yet remains a tranquil maj
esty in its mien that every one recog-
nizes and feels the moment he sees
it.
Coarse in its construction, uncOuth
and stiff in every lineament, it is yet
able to impress the soul Of every
traveller, even the most careless, who
beholds it. 1t is better seen from
below; the first sight of it, if from
the top of the pyramids, belittles and
dwarfS its proportions; if from the
long and winding approach of the
old path, it is best of all. This figure
is the colassol form sculptured rough
ly in yellowish stone-nummulite, full
of minute and perfect shells-of a
brute's body with a human head.
The body reclines at length in the
sand; the head is finely erect in the
air. There used to be an altar be-
tween the forepaws, located precisely
where the sweet SAVIOR of a sacrifice
might most easily be supposed to
reach the nostril.

Richard Weliman has recently harvest
ed from AZ square rods of land so bushels
OF the eight row Canada corn. At that rate
the yield would be 40 bushels to the acre.
Deducting 10 bushels for shrinkage and
there would be 100 bushels, equal to so
bushels shelled corn. At 81 so per bushel
we have S12O; allowing $50 and fodder for
work, &C., there would be 500 net profit
per acre. Will not consumers who have
been making themselves money poor by
freighting across the mountain at a cost of
from 81 so to S175 per bushel, take the
hint and raise their grain so as to save the
profit to themselves.
NEWPORT.
The frame of the Freewill Baptist church
was raised last Wednesday and Thursday.
The building is 36x4S, with a good sub
stantial underpinning.
Joseph Hamel, an employe of the Pas
sumpsic railroad, had narrow escape
from drowning on Thursday night. The
mail train, long one, loaded with people
returning from the Barton fair, was detain-
ed at Newport about 80 minutes, and
portion of the train including baggage car,
was on the bridge. Hamel, who was at
work in the baggage car, probably was not
aware that the train was partly over the
water, and stepped out of the door and fell
directly into the Lake. 1t was very dark,
but his cries soon brought lanterns and as
sistance. Frank Richardson, of the U. S.
and Canada express, soon found ladder,
and with the assistance of others, shortly
pulled joe out of the water, cooler if
not wiser man. The place is danger
Gus one, and should have appliances for
rescuing people conveniently near at hand.
POTION.
We regret to record the almost sudden
death of Robert n. Manson, ESQ, which
melancholy event occurred at Mansonyille
on Monday last, causing a blank not only
in the commercial world, but among a
large circle of friends, by whom he was
much esteemed. Mr. Manson, in partner
ship with his brother, David Manson, car
ried on a large business as general mer-
chant and was also postmaster, Lieutenant
of the Mansonville Volunteer Company,
SD Battalion, and member of the Ma
sonic order His departure from this life
at the early age of 80 years will be severe
ly felt by all classes of society in Potion
and surrounding neighborhood.

The Financial Success Of the Ad-
ministration.

The fiscal year which ended June 80,
1870, showed at its close a balance of $l55,-
Csc, 24085 in the treasury. Its net receipts
during the year from customs, internal
revenue, sales OF public lands, and miscel-
laneous sources, amount to Sill ,255, Al SO.
Its receipts from excess in conversion, etc,
over the redemption of bonds, treasury
notes, and fractional currency, amount to
81 ,270, 2l3.S7. Add these two sums to the
balance with which the year began, and we
have total of 1865, 206,O 32. So for the ifs
cal year ending June 80, 1870.
The expenditures of the government for
the same period, including the interest on
the public debt, amountto 1922, 124. 052I8,
or $276, OS2, 9S0.17 less than the receipts,
including the balance from the previous
year. The amount expended in the pur-
chase Of sinking fund bonds during the
year was $126,579 ,508.57, which being ad-
ded to the previous sum, makes a total
disbursement of $4lS, 7O3, 56O.75.
The par value of the bonds purchased
during the year is $1O9, 100000. The pre-
MUM and accrued interest paid amount to
ST., 529, 5OS.57, giving a total of 5126, 579,-
50S.57 expended in the purchase of bonds.
The balance in the treasury, June 80,
1870, was $149, SOP, 471.6O, or Sc, III, $685.
% less than at the corresponding period in
1869. Deduct the amount of this decreas-
ed balance from the amount expended in
the purchase of bonds, and we have left
S12O, 401 ,639.32 Deduct from the latter
sum the receipts from excess in conversion,
etc, Of bonds, notes, and fractional curren-
cy. and we have an actual gain of 5l19,-
13l ,425.45 in 1870.
These figures, which represent the great
transactions Of the government for the year
ending June 80, 1870, are compiled from
official statements from the T. S. treasury
They tell their own story. The admins
tration of President Grant is financial
success. He pledged himself to do his ut
most to retrench expenses ard faithfully
collect the revenues of the government
and he has kept his word. The total de-
crease of the public debt since he came in
to Office up to September /, 1870, period
of eighteen months, amounts to Sl69, 543,-
4O91O. This is equal to monthly aver.
age of S9,4l9 061.61 for the entire period.
We believe that the majority of the
American people will regard these figures
as furnishing one very good reason why
the party now in power should be continu-
ed in power. The next Congress, we have
no doubt, will be republican and the next
President will be elected by the republican
party, and probably be General Grant
Free Press.
