HARTFORD, April 1O.-An evident error has
been discovered in the return of votes from the
fourth ward, New Haven, by which one hun
drcd more votes were returned for Gov. English
than should have been. One hundred more
votes were returned than were checked on the
list, and the democratic state ticket was de-
clared to have received one hundred more votes
than the democratic representative ticket, while
the republican state and representative tickets
were about equal, The matter will probably be
fully investigated by the legislature, to deter
mine whether there was a mistake or fraudu-
lent count of the votes. Ifelther is proved, the
result will give the election to Jewell.
In the new city of New Britain, at the city
election, the first under the charter, the re-
publican city ticket was elected by about 200
majority. Both branches of the city council
are also strongly republican.

tival is contemplated, and inviting all who have

WAsHINGTON, D. "a April IUJ ISL.
SENATE.
When it was moved in the senate to-day to
meet hereafter at eleven o'clock, and also to hold
evening sessions, the democratic senator's pro-
tested against any haste in debating the kuklux
bill, although they say that they did not intend
to make any factious opposition. The senate
finally resolved to meet hereafter at eleven
O'Clock.
AT the conclusion of a speech by Mr. Hill, the
senate refused-25 to 26-to proceed with the
kuklux bill, and Mr.. Stewart and Mr.. Morton
continued the discussion in favor of Blodgett's
right to a seat.
Without disposing of the subject, the senate
adjourned.

TO PHYSICIANS S,
New YORK, August 18th, 1868.

NEW 1Ohh, august lotu, loOc.
Allow me to call your attention to my PREP.
ARATION OF COMPOUND EXTRACT BU.
CHU. The component parts are, BUCHU, LONG
LEAF, CUBEBS. JUNIPER BERRIES.
MODE OF PREPARATION. .--Buchu is vacano. Ju.
niper Berries, by distation, to form fine gin
Cubebs extracted by displacement with spirits
obtained from Juniper Berries; very little sugar
is used, and small proportion of spirit. 1t is
more palatable than any now in use.
Buchu as prepared by Druggists is of a darl,
color. 1t is plant that emits its fragrance; the
action of flame destroys this (its active princi-
ple,) leaving dark and glutinous decoction
Mine is the color of ingredients. The Buchu in
my preparation predominates; the smallest guam
tity of the other ingredients are added to pre-
vent fermentation; upon inspection it will be
found not to be a tncture, as made in Pharma-
copGa, nor is it syrup-and therefore oan be
used in cases wht re fever or inflammation exist
In this, you have the knowledge of the ingredi-
ents and the mode of preparation.
Hoping that you will favor it with trial. and
that upon inspection it will meet with your ap-
probation.
With feeling Of profound confidence,
am very respectfully,

Riding Chickens OF Vermin.

1t is much easier to prevent chickens
from becoming infested with parasites
by sprinkling the setting hen and her
nest with powdered sulphur before the
eggs are Matched than to get rid OF the
pests afterwards. If the chicks are still
with mother,apply kerosene in moderate
quantities to the feathers of her whole
body near the skin, particularly to the
wings and other parts that come in con-
tact with the chickens. Then gothrough
the same operation with each chicken
separately, paying special attention TO
the head, which the part the vermin
prefer. If the chickens are quite young
do not allow the kerosene to touch the
skin, if il can be avoided, but aim at
roots. If care is not taken, the skin
may at slightly moistening the feathers
near them be badly injured and chickens
have been killed by OVERRIDING the mat
ter. Blindness will result if the kerosene
touches the eyes of the birds. One APP
plication, if thorough, will destroy every
insect. Another remedy is to dust sui.
phur freely upon the skin of the old and
young. 1t is as efficacious as the kero-
sene, unless they Immediately ruffle their
feathers and shake it off. To lessen the
risk of this, it is best to apply 1T at
night, when they are quiet, and 1t will
do its work before morning. 1t will not
iniure the chicken in the least, applied
in any quantity.

She had scarcely ended these wise
reflections, when noise of foot steps
among the dry leaves made her lift up
her head.
She was about to take to flight, when
gypsy lad of eighteen or twenty years
old, tall, slight, with brown skin, curly
hair, sparkling eyes, and thick, broad
lips, let himself slide down the rock,
and, looking at her admiringly, ex-

don't know. | am searching"
Then she told him how Bremen had
brought her up, and how she had es.
capped from his house the day before.
Meanwhile the young gypsy stood
there smiling and showing his white
teeth.
"As for me-" said he, throwing out
his arm, g am going to Hazlaeh to-
morrow is the day of the great fair, and
all our troops will be there-Pfifer, Karl,
Melchior, Fritz, the clarionet player,
and Concon-Peter. The women will tell
fortunes, and we shall play music. If
yo like, come with me ~
Il should like very much - said
Myrtle, casting down here eye.
He then kissed her, put his sack upon
her back, and taking his stick in both
his hands, exclaimed, Woman, you
shall be mine. You shall carry my
sack, and | will feed you. Now for
ward"
And Myrtle, who had been so lazy at
the farm, now stepped forward cheer
fully. He followed her, singing and
bounding along on his hands and feet,
as joyous as he could be.
Since that day nothing has been heard
of Myrtle.
Fritz thought he would die if she did
not come back, but in a few years he
consoled himself for her loss by marry
ing Gredel Dick, the daughter of the
miller.
Catherine appeared quite contented,
for Gredel Dick was the richest heiress
in the village.
Bremen only was still sad, he had
ended by loving Myrtle as if she were
his own child.
One winters day he was looking out
of the window, and on seeing a gypsy
woman in rags, with sack on her back,
crossing the valley, which was all
blocked with snow, he sat down, draw.
ing deep sigh.
What is the matter, Bremen p asked
his wife.
AS he did not answer, she went up to
him, and saw that he was dead.-THe

Planting Trees.

The scarcity of timber in all parts of
the country accessible to railroads is
becoming a serious question and it is
necessary to take immediate steps to
supply want that in a few years will
become serious. Much rough i~..i has
been cleared of timber, and is allowed
to grow up in scrub oaks and pine,
which, if planted, would in few years
furnish a valuable supply. Fencing and
building timber will be our greatest
want in the future, the question of fuel
being satisfactorily settled by our album
dant coal deposits. If these thousands
of acres now neglected were cleared of
scrub growth, and planted to European
larch, Norway spruce, chestnut, or To-
Gust, in ten years, with proper care,
fencing material would be plenty. On
every farm space could be found for
ample plantations Of such timber. The
advice of the canny Scot to his son,
Jock, when We haze naeting to do, be
aye sticking in tree-it will graw
whites ye're sleeping" might be fol-
lowed by many of our farmers without
much trouble, and with certainty of
profitable return within ten or fifteen
years.

Troublesome Children.

When you get tired of their noise,
just think what change there would
be should it come to a total silence.
Nature makes provision for strengthen
ing the children's lungs by exercise.
Babies cannot laugh so as to get much
exercise in this way, but we never heard
Of but one that could not cry. Crying,
shouting, screaming, are natures lung
exercise, and if you do not wish for it in
the parlor, pray have aplace devoted to
t,and do not debar the girls from it,
with the notion that it is improper for
them to laugh, jump, cry, scream, and
run races in the open air. After while
one gets used to this Juvenile music,
and can even write and think more
consecutively with it than without it,
provided it does not run into OBJ
jurgatory forms, which is not often the
case.
We remember a boy that used to go
to school past our window, and he gen.
orally made continuous stream of roar
off to the school house and back again.
We supposed at first he had been nearly
murdered by some one, but, on inquir-
ing into the case, found him in perfectly
good condition. The truth was that the
poor little fellow had no mirthfulness in
his composition, therefore couldn't
laugh and shout, and so nature, in her
wise compensations, had given him
the faculty of roaring. He seemed to
thrive upon it, and, we believe, is doing
well. Laughing and hallooing, how
ever, are to be preferred, unless child
shows decided incapacity for those ex-
ercises.
Our eye alights, just now, upon the
following touching little scrap, writ
ten by an English laborer, whose child
had been killed 10y the falling of a
b, am
Sweet laughing child the cottage door
Stands free and open now
But, oh its sunshine gilds no more
The gladness OF thy brow
Thy merry step hath passed away,
Thy laughing sport is hushed for aye.
" Thy mother by the fireside sits
And listens for thy call
Aid slowly-sowly as she knits,
Her quiet tears down fall
Her HHie hndering thing is gone.
And undisturbed she may work on
American odd Fellow.
