NEW STEAM FIRE ENGINE.-The new steam
fire engine, to take the name and place of the
old Machgenne, worn out in service in our
fire department., arrived yesterday morning,
aud is in the house on Congress street near
Oak. The new machine is very handson in
design and is supplied with number of mod
ern improvements. The boiler, water tank,
dome and smoke stack are flushed with COM
position and nickel plated metal. The iron
work is nicely polished and the general work
manship of the whole appears to be of the best
quality. Altogether we think the new Machi-
gonne will meet the appreciation of the citl-
zens. The machine is from the Amoskeag
Manufacturing Co., at Manchester, N. Fl.

PAVILION HORRIBLY reference to our adj
vertIsement column it will be seen that the
Pavilion Hotel at Wolfboro, N. H., situated
upon the borders of the charming Lake Win
nepise osee is open to summer travel 1t is
one of the best kept hotels in the country, can
accommodate over 300 guests, is provided with
boats for lake-parties, bowling alleys, irst-rate
teams, and all the requirements OF a first class
hotel. We can truly say from experience that
the cuisine is far beyond the majority OF our
most celebrated hostelries in poiut of excel
lence. Mr.. A. L. Howe, the proprietor, is a
most courteous landlord, always on the look
out to provide for the comfort of his guests,
and now that the Rochester road is about to
put our citizens in close communication with
Wolfboro we can recommend no pleasanter
place for a summer trip.

LONDON, June 29.-In the House of Lords
tonight, Lord Oranmore moved resolve ex.
pressing regret that the Queen had been adj

the country. Its conditions he said, were in
conflict with instructions given, abject, humil-
iating and irritating to Canada, without con-
ciiating America The Earl of Airle praised
and defended the treaty. The Earl of Lauder
dale said it gave everything to the United
States without securing, an equivalent for Eng
land. Lord Hough on was satisfied with the
compact, because it would prevent future
quarrels: Lord Granville closed the debate
with vigorous defence of the action of the
government, and on motion of Lord Orapmore
WIS defeated without division,
La the House of Commons, Mr.. Gladstone
hoped an early day would be fixed for the dis
cussion of the treaty of Washington, The

TERRIBLE RAILgoAD ACCIDENT NEAR SrocK-

kILLED.--On Thursday evening despatch
was received to the effect that tie morning
train from San Francisco on the Western Pa
ciic Railroad had run off the bridge over the
San Joaquin river killing one hundred per-
soas. A large number of residents of this
place and vicinity are absent at Stockton and
San Francisco, the news when received ran
like wild FIRE through the town, the anxiety
of those who had relatives and friends that
might possibly be on the train was intense

no one from Sonora hurt. Up to the time Of

that contained in the telegram announcing

The maxim that the voice Of the people is
the voice of the divinity. may in some eases,
be open to doubt, but the testimony of honest
and enlightened witnesses extending through
a series of years, and all to the same purport,
is worthy of credence, admits of no question.
Upon such testimony the reputation of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters as an au'idote and
cure for many ailments is based. During
tie twenty wears that it has been before the
world, innumerable preparations intended TO
compete With it, have gone up Ike rockets.
and come down the extingushed sticks.
Meanwhile the progress OF that incompara-
Bile tonic has been swift and steadv-aways
upward and onward like the eagles flight.
It's introduction produced a revolution in
therapeutics, and it proved to be one of those
sanitary revolutions that cannot 90 back
wards. To-day Hustetter's Bitters is one of
the most popular remedies in christencom,
and commands larger sale than any other
medicinal preparation, domestic or imported,
on this side of The Atlantic. As q cure for
dyspepsia, bilious disorders, nervous afec-
tions. general debility, and as preventive of
epidemic fevers, it takes precedence of every
other remedy This fact should teach the
ambitious country dealers who endeavor to
loist their local abortions on the public in its
stead, how futile their small attempts to
caiole the community must necessarily be-
