ministration of Gov. Won Twiller, In 1888
49, Trumbulrs History of Connecticut
mentions the horse,a accompanying emf
grants from Massachusetts to that State,
Oct. 10th, 1886. The first horse seen in Can
ada was brought to that country from
France in ship which arrived at Tadous-
sac, June 2Oth, l647.
1t is estimated that there are now in this
country eight millions of horses, valued at
between two and three thousand millions
of dollars IA sum ample to pay the nation
al debt.) The highest price recorded as
actually paid for any one horse was s75, 900;
though it is said that $4,000 would not
have bought "Gladateur" at his meridian.
In this country Lexington" sold for S15,-
900, and one of his colts has since been sold
for $40, 200, while $4,000 was refused for
another.
"Mambrino Pilot has tempted the offer
of $4,000 without success, and "lamble-
tonian," whose death at an advanced age
was recently announced, commanded $780,
600 short time before. Dexter brought
$3.50 There are some seventy thousand
horses in this country, says McClure's re-
cent work, worth from $1,000 TO $40, 600 each.
A recent estimate has fixed the probable
valuation of horses in New York city, en-
bracing all classes, at $4,000, OO0.-Hearl

Evil caused by the use Of injurious compounds
Cor the hair, which are prepared and forced
into market, by men who are not practical
physicians, and who may not be aware Of tho
injury they are producing. These prepara-
tons have been analysed by competent chem
lists, and shown to contain poisonous sub

llysis, and often fatal results.
In contrast with such injurious articles, we

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

4 LII who reason upon the subject Of
Ilhealth and longevity, would do we'll
to remember that they are as much gov
erned by laws, at the system of gravita-
ton. And whether wilfully or ignorant
ly these laws are disregarded, they will
assert their rights and punish the trans
gressor.
AS a rule that allows of little excep-
ton, the whole community is diseased
in one or more Of the many forms of dis
ease.
Inharmonious action of the human or
ganism is everywhere to be seen, and
the vital forces much disturbed. Do you
desire to be informed how the vital
forces may be trengthened, and harmo-
Nous action restored2 call upon DR..
Packer, 1t is here you can learn the
best and most rational way to accom-
plish so desirable an object. While it
will not be DR. Packers business to at
tack any other mode of practice, it will
be his privilege and pleasure to offer to
the citizens of Brattleboro and vicinity
theory based upon the Eclectic system
of practice, which has only to be known
to be duly appreciated
Electricity is thoroughly understood
by Dr.. Packer, and is always applied,
when in his Judgment the case cannot be
cured without its use.
All diseases which afflict the family of
man have been treated by him the last
thirty years. And all that are diseased
and need reliable advise will do well to
call upon him.
Having feeble health, the Doctor does
not wish to engage in active family
practice, but still will hold himself ready
to take charge of all cases of disease ex'
cept those in obstetrics, this part of his
profession having been abandoned for
, many years.

The object in establishing this Institution
was to attain the greatest perfection in the
preparation, practice and use of Vegetable
Remedies, and to secure permanent place
where Families, Invalids, or any person could
obtain the best medical advice, and such rem
edies as each might require, without the use
Of poisonous drugs.
DR.. Greene has been Physician of the lnsti-
tute since its foundation, now more than
twenty-five years. Few men have had SO
large experience in the treatment of chronic
diseases. DR.. Greene is in his ffty-ffth year
and has devoted his life to this branch Of his
profession, and his success, we believe is with
out parallel
Among the diseases to which he gives ca
pecial attention may be noticed Cancer, Scrof-
ula, Catarrh, Bronchitis, Consumption, Heart
Disease, Neuralgia, Asthma, Nervousness,
rheumatism, Paralysis, Spinal Diseases. Dye

In compliance with the foregoing instructions. the
price Of the Bonds from this date, until further
ders, will be "a and accrued interest
The scarcity Of, and demand for. really
Desirable six per cent. Gold Bonds,
for solid and permanent investments is evinced by
the facts that
Fivc-Twcuty Bonds Of 1867 are selling at. 115
Central Pacific Bonds selling at.... 1O3
Chcsnpcakc s. Ohio Bonds are selling at. "a
These bonds all pay both principal and interest in
New York City, in U. S. gold coin, and equally
safe for investment.
The reason why FivE-TwEsrY BONDS are SO high is
because moro can be issued, and the outstanding
amount being rapidly decreased by purchases by the
Government from their surplus revenues.
The reason why think CENTRAL PACIFIC BONDS
will in time advance to the p.ce Of Five-Tw,nter is
because be issued; while the operation Of
their Sinking Fund will soon commence to decrease
the amount.
The reason why CHESAPEAKE AND ONO BosDs are
selling low comparatively, while equally safe, is
because the Company arc selling Bonds to complete
the Road. They will all be sold in short time, and
in few months the road will be finished, when we
have no doubt the same result will follow with FIVE
TWENTY and CENTRAL PACIFIC Bonds The Sinking
Fund of the Chesapeake and Ohio go into effect
within one year after the completion of the road
