Summer company is setting in. and
our houses will soon be we'll filled. We
went on to Streaked Mountain last week,
and had fine view. The landscape
scenery from this Mountain surpasses
that of Mt. Washington, because too
much distance don't lend so much en-
chantment. The ascent from this side
furnishes better views, we think, than
from the Buckfeld side. There is Il
prospect of abundance of blueberries
there.
Among the many pleasant rides around
town, is that to Shows Falls, and pleas

that the new Government is incapable OF pro

VERSAILLES, March 22-All the principal
officers Of the Imperial army have returned to
France from their imprisonment in Germany,
and are, without an exception, retiring from
military service.
PARIS, March 23-Last evening m out
break occurred in Place Fendomc.
The insurgents became much irrltated by
the proclamation the National Assembly had
issued and determined to resent it with violence.
The temper of the general public as they
stood discussing the situation was sufficient to
excite the anger Of the Reds, " for they were
denounced on all hands and their outragcs
spoken of in bitter terms. One gentleman re-
preached the National Guard for timidlty and
cowardice and apparent sympathy with the
insurgents.
The discussion grew heated and one of the
National guards confronted this gentleman, the
end of which was fight between the two, in
which the gentleman left the crowd somewhat
damaged in physical appearance. The groups
of people, evidently ripe for mischief, became
so alarming that an order was given the Nation
al guards to clear the place Fendome. The
people refused to leave and the guard fired,
killing five persons and woundlng many others.
The firing was successful in clearing the place
Vondome, and as many Of the crowd were In
surgents with Chassepots, in their hands their
indisposition to return the fire was regarded as
very significant. Paris has, however, become
much calmcr and the absence OF competent lea
dcrs with the insurgents induces the citizens
to believe the rioters arc not supported

Yours asking the result of my experiment with
Magnum Bonum is to hand.
The Fertilizer was applied to corn at planting
May 9TH, with machine (wheat drill, with all
tubes but two rcmovcd,) depositing same with
seed at the rate of so pounds per acre. On June
hundred pounds por acre, ploughed in at last
finely. causing the crop to push with Il vigorous
growth second to none, consider ing the difference
rs to time in favor OF its competitors The second
npplir.:ion made when the corn was beginning
to suffer for rain was entirely satisfactory in its
results producing steady, rapid growth and
development throughout the season, and 4 full
rcmuncrativc return at gathering. The Magnun
Bonnm ranks among the best mannres $, ever used.
