The trial of the Lime Rock Bank rob-

term in the State Prison. The two prin-
cipals managed shrewdly to have their
punishment as light as possible, and oy
their show of penitence and promises OF
good conduct, evidently made favorable
impression. 1t remains established, how
ever, that Maine is not good held Tor

ment here has no respect for the pro
fession," and our courts and police do not
understand the way of their duty to lie in
assisting such thieves to escape. 1t is
different in New York, it appears prob
ably the greatest regret the culprits now
feel is that they did not remain in New
York and attend to business there.
where judges and detectives are surpass-
ingly kind, and robbery is respectable,
provided it is successful.

'Mr. r. II. EDDY has made for me THIRTEEN

tried to behave ourselves properly. No
amount ofpunshment can increase my deter
mination to hereafter lead a different mode of
life. l therefore ask your honor to be as le-
nient in our sentence as will be consistent
with your duty.
Judge Barrows Il feel that any word Of
admonition might address to persons such
as these would be a waste of breath. I can
only hope that the spirit of the good God that
is always operating to turn men away from
evil, will SO operate upon these men as to
turn their hearts thoroughly from the evil
they have pursued here. My duty is to pass
such sentence as will mark the condemnation
of the law for such crimes as these.
/ have attended to what has been urged in
mitigation of sentence. 1t appears that this
case presents no such violence as was exhibit
ted in the case of the Bowdoinham Bank Rob
bers. 1t does not appear that they were arm
ed or intended resistance.
When criminal is detected and it is ap-
parent he cannot escape, do not consider
that there is great merit in acknowledging the
crime with which he is charged The penalty
provided for a crime of this kind is imprison-
ment for term not exceeding Is years. Con-
sidering all the circumstances OF this case
and the mode of life which am bound to be-
lleve these men pursued, nave recoTueu
sentence which the Clerk will now announce.
The prisoners, Moore and Hight then arose,
and the Clerk read the sentence to each,
which was seven years Of hard labor in the
State prison.
The firm appearance and good looks OF the
prisoners, their courteous bearing and frank
behavior throughout the proceedings has
elected considerable commentator, espec-
tally from the ladies who have attended court
in large numbers throughout the trial.

EDITOR CosMopoLITE:-I DESIRE as an unsolici.
ted tribute to the merits of HELMBoLD,s BUGHu
and for the benefit of those similarly afflicted as
myself, to say that after consulting many eminent
physicians and trying nearly all the best advertised
remedies, IN the vain hope of finding relief from
aggravated kidney and bladder diseases from
which have suffered excessively for many years,
good fortune finally suggested to me HELMBoIDs
BCCIiC, which commenced using with little faith,
and no apparent beneficial effects for about u
thought commenced to experience slight relief,
which encouraged me to persevere in its USE and
now at the expiration of four months, although
am an infirm old man, nearly seventy-e eight years
Of age, and consequently medicines cannot be ex.
pected to favorably affect as they otherwise
would, have found such unspeakable relief and
permanent benefit from Mr.. Hembold's valuable
discovery, that feel ought to publicly record the
fact as an acknowledgment to him, and valuable
suggestion to the public. Yours respectfully,

H. T. HELMB0LD'S
CONCENTRATED
Fluid Extract Buchu.
THE
GREAT DIURETIC.

The Proprietor trusts that his Remedies, from the
fact of being advertised may not be classed as Pa
tent Medicines.
BUCHU, in one form or other, has been presented
by every educated Physician for more than
TWO HUNDRED YEARS.
H. T. IELMBOLD claims n superior mode of
extracting its virtues The experiments were made
while engaged in the DRUG business in the city of
Philadelphia, nineteen years ago, prompted by the
alarming increase of diseases Of the Bladder, Kid
neys, Gravel and Urinary Organs, exist in both
sexes, These diseases justly attracting as
much attention rs diseases of the Liver or any
other vital organs of the body. Upon the sound and
healthy condition of these important organs the
healthy and harmonious action Of the nervous sys-
TEN and Liver, and consequently the happiness of
The entire human family, depends. That Buchu
,hould act upon both Liver and Kidneys, to pre-
pare it that it would retain its strength and active
principle, was his aim. 1t must not be made, at
nousekeepers make tea, by boiling. 1t is delicate
Leaf, and its active principle would be destroyed
by such process. II must be prepared in vACUO,
md from the Long-leaf, fresh and carefully
lected.
THE SUPERIORITY OF MY MODE OF PRE-
PARATION BEING ACKNOWLEDGED, now
,hip even 10 the point CAPE OF GOOD HOPE,
where the leaves are gathered. large quantities Of
Ny FLUID EXTRACT.
IN FACT, THE ARTICLE STANDS PRE-EMI-
NENT AND Is KNOWN IN ALL PARTS OF THE
WORLD.
The first and most important object was to offer
10 the afflicted a remedy that was perfectly safe,
md could be taken by adults and children. Igno
rant persons who pay attention to dose, direc
tion or advice might reason, THAT if n teaspoon
.ul, taken occasionally, did good, two would do
better and perhaps bottle would cure in a day"
Many have broken down their health by dissipa
tion and this principle; but they had been years
N doing SO.
What would have understood is, that no injury
can arise from its 1t is safe any article
Of food; but patients must not expect any medicine
few days.
This truth Is so self-evident that 1t would seem
unnecessary repeat it, were for the fac, that
thousands of persons who intelligent in all other
matters, seem to think unreasonably, that a cura-
i've agent must exhibit its specific effects immedi-
itely, when the fact is that time is often an impor
sant element in the progress of cafe and thorough
:ure, even when the medicine is working the best
tesults. These same persons would expend HUN
DREDS, yes, THOUSANDS of DOLLARS, in
articles of LUXURY and DISSIPATION, aud think
less of it than they would of FIFTY DOLLARS in
Medicine to rebuild a BROKEN DOWN and WORN
OUT CONSTITUTION.
Notwithstanding the number of years have been
Engaged in business, there may be those located at
distance that may not be aware of all the facts,
md would like to be satisfied on all the points.
