MISCELLANEOUS NOTICES

A LADY of this city whose daughter recently
died OF consumption, expresses her opinion of
DIR. Leland's treatment in that disease. She
says, Gould have had my daughter placed
under the doctors care in the early or incipient
stages of the disease, l have little or no doubt
OF her ultimate recovery to health. In noticing
the marked beneficial results of his treatment
upon her, have every reason to believe that
her life was greatly prolonged even after the
disease had nearly completed its dreadful work "
The above statement is warning to all per-
sons of consumptive disease to try the best and
surest remedy first and not trife with the dis
ease until it is too late to hope for a cure.
The DIR. will visit his Institute in this city on
Tuesday next, Dec. 9TH, leaving at o'clock, p.
m. All interested and wishing an explanation
of his system of treatment, are invited to call
and examine, free of charge, at his rooms in
Cahoon Block corner Myrtle and Congress
streets. 1t

THE PORTLAND STREET SEwER.-It is known
that the sewer on Portland street, between For
est and Lowell streets, which was laid several
years since, has failed of its purpose by reason
of not having been laid deep enough, and &C
cordingly the large track of unimproved land
lying on both sides of the street adjoining the
ldaine Central railroad has been rendered use
less for building purposes. Accordingly last
spring the city council ordered the sewer to be
taken up and relaid some three and half feet
lower than before. The contract was
taken by Mr.. Edward L.. Dyer, who
has laid some fifty rods of sewer with branches
to the land on either side of the street The
work seems to be faithfully done, and no doubt
the lands alluded to will now be properly drain
ed and thereby rendered valuable for building
purposes or some other form of improvement
The large lot on the west side of the street be-
You'd the M. G. railroad has been graded pre-
paratory to being put into the market

generously to the call of the collector and

cold OF the past few days is premonition of
the many that are to follow, and forcibly re-
minds us that the poor are always with us, and
that food and fuel are not only necessary for
their comfort but their existence; which arti-
Giles are dispensed by the society as far as their

ing, at Music Hail. The speaker of the even
ing will be j. Boyle O. REILLY, Esq, .of Boston,
name well known to a great many, especially
to the Irish people on this and the other side of

confident that this will be one of the notable

ANNIVERSARY. On Wednesday evening,
Mission Lodge of Good Templars celebrated
its sixth anniversary. The exercises consisted
of appropriate songs by Miss Garlic, Mrs
Marston and MI. Dresser, recitation by Mr..
Nickerson, and the reading of brief history
of the rise and progress of the Lodge by Mrs.
Marston. From this interesting paper we
learn that there have been over six hundred
persons connected with the Lodge since its or
ganization; that it now has sixty-fve active
members, some of whom have been rescued
from intemperance. Remarks were made by
Mr. Kimball, member of the police force, who
gave several instances of the sad effects of in
temperance which have come under his obserya
ton, and by the County Templar Mr. Rowland

support Of the Stale Government for 1871,
