SAVING WooD WITHOUT Saw
DR.. Geo. Robinson, of New York, has in
vented process of cutting wood by
passing galvanic current over platin-
um wire in sufficient quantity to raise its
temperature to red heat. He has found
that by gently pushing piece of wood
against red-hot platinum wire, espe-
eially when aided by slight saving
movement, the wood was divided in any
required direction as by handsaw, and,
of course, without any effort of skill or
appreciable expenditure of muscular
power. The Scientific american says
that "by arranging the wire with handles
or other means to guide it readily, the
lumber, whether in trees, logs or plank,
may be easily cut as desired. There is
here, therefore, simple and easily ap-
piled force, that in a child IS hands, may
be employed to fell trees, divide them
into logs, and in short, perform all the
operations of the saw and AK. The sur
face of the wood where thus divided is
of course slightly charred, but the black
layer is very thin, and for many purposes
not disadvantageous, as it is known to
preserve timber. The battery employed
need only be of the simplest character,
as quantity and not intensity of current
is required"

SEATED by the corpse of his departed
spouse walked strong man, as if his
heart would break. His disheveled hair
was moist with the sweat of agony, and
his clenched hands and swollen eyes told
how deep and engrossing was his grief
There was a strong odor of stale gin in
the department. To him came man
clad in broadcloth and bearing bundle
of tracts, upon the odd page of each one
of which was printed the advertisement
of a Life Insurance Company, who en-
deavored to console the bereaved and
weeping relic. Then uprose the weeping
" dover in wrah b, and rebuked the Tract
Insurance Agent. "You talk of sympa-
thy" he exclaimed "you, who were
nursed in the lap of Industry, and weaned
on the pap of business ! Oh, man you
can never know how great is my loss !!
She was pattern wife. Nine years had
we dwelt together, during which time /
never had to do stroke of work. Why,
you poor wretch, she sometimes made
four dollars and half with her washing.
Never will l find the woman who can
fill her place. And whisky is so derned
expensive, now, too !" The strong man
again bowed himself over the remains
and sobbed like child, and the insur-
ance agent turned away with sigh, nor
did he waste single tract on the broken
hearted and distracted widower.

LAW OF NEWSPAPERS.

l. Subscribers who do not give ex-
press notice to the contrary, are consider
ed as wishing to continue their subscrip-
ton.
2. If subscribers wish their papers dis
continued, publishers may continue to
send them until all charges are paid
8. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their papers from the Office or place
to which they are sent, they are held re-
sponsible until they settle their bills and
give due notice to discontinue.
4. If subscribers move to other places
without informing the publisher, and the
paper is sent 70 the former direction they
are held responsible. Notice should al
ways be given of the removal.
5. The courts have decided, that refus-
ing to take paper from the office, or re-
moving and leaving it uncalled for, is prt-
ma fdcte evidence of intentional fraud.

A Man LOST IN HIS Own CELLAR

A MAN LOST IN HIS Own CELLAR
A Newport letter in the Providence Press
says: "a prominent merchant of this
city had occasion one evening lately, to
descend for some purpose into his own
store, and being, as ne thought, we'll ac-
quainted, took no light with him. Touch
ing bottom, he struck bee line as near
as he could calculate for door he desired
to enter, and missed. Here his troubles
began. He took new departure, with
no better success. The darkness was in
tense. He could not "see his hand be-
fore him." At length he essayed to find
his way out, but with no better success,
each successive attempt only adding to
his bewilderlnent and confusion. 1t was
getting late, and the prospect Of spending
the night in that dark and lonely cellar,
companion for rats, with anxious friends
securing the town in an unsuccessful
search for him, loomed up in his excited
imagination and he shouted for help,
shouted twice, thrice, and good many
times. Some friendly Odd Fellows pass
ing, on their way home from the lodge,
heard the cry of distress and responded
quickly, as they do to every cry of dis
tress. They beat about the premises for
some considerable time, unable to de-
termine whence the sound proceeded. In
the absence of lanterns they used lucifer
matches, whose feeble lights were dane
ing here and there about the premises,
the smothered cry for help continuing to
ascend from the depths. AT length, after
the neighborhood had been aroused, the
lost man was found and restored once
mole to society and his friends"

a FTER A PROTRACTED BLIND
1A ness of more than five years, DR.. Pardee
has made himself thoroughly and scientfcal-
ly acquainted with all Diseases of the Eye,
and is now, practicing with success not sur
passed in the United States.
All operations performed, such as Strabis-
mus, or cross-eye, Cataract by linear extrac-
tlon, Depression or Absorption, Pterygium, or
heshy membrane growing over the eye, Reduc
tion of Staphyloma, or bulging out of the eye
Artificial Pupil, Fistula, Lachrymalis, or clos
ing of the tear passage, and all deformities of
the Lids, etc.
Artificial Eyes inserted without the least
pain, and possessing all the movements and
brilliancy of the real eye. A large assortment
constantly on hand and for sale at reasonable
prices. The Doctors Eye Bath for the treat
ment and cure Of all nervous diseases is used
all over this coast.
Thankful to those physicians who have sent
him cases for operation, he hopes that his uni
versal success will warrant a continuation of
their confidence. His celebrity as an operator
is co-eXtensive with his success, as patients
are presenting themselves, for treatment and
operations, from n ew \ ork and Boston, almost
monthly. Many patients can be seen at the
Doctors office daily, in different stages of re-
cOvery.

THE UNIVERSAL VERDICT;
Sc The Wheeler d Wilson Sewing Ma
chine the Champion rs

These unequalled Machines do all the differ
ent kinds of work required to be done In a
family, and make all the different kinds OF
Stitches, without the complications of the
other Machines.
All lpersons will please examine the WHEELER
4 WILSON SEWING MACHINES before purchas-
ing any other
The WHEELER Il WILSON, as is well known,
has won, at nearly every trial in which it has
competed, the highest award of merit. The
representatives of other machines, ever conf.
dent, have entered the lists, time and again,
only to be defeated ; and finding it impossible
to compete fairly, have endeavored to decry
the value of Premiums. They are not slow,
however, to boast of the few they have received.
But in the grand trial, daily use throughout
the, world, where only true merit finds favor,
and superiority wins the race, the WHEELER az
WILSON SEWING MACHINE stands triumphantly
the Champion by the verdict of the people.
These Machines are Adapted to
Every Variety of Sewing,
From the lightest muslins to the heaviest
cloths. They work equally well upon Silk,
Linen, Woolen or Cotton goods, with Silk,
Linen or Cotton thread Scanning, Quilting,
Gathering, Hemming,. Telling Cording, Tuck
ing, Braiding, Embroidering and making But
ton Holes with the greatest facility.
If it be inconvenient for the purchaser to
visit the salesroom, the order may be forward
ed to the office, and it will be as faithfully
filled as if the selection had been made per-
sonally.
Full instructions, recently compiled, and
giving full information upon every point in
detail, accompany each Machine, and enable
the most inexperienced to operate without
difficulty.
Our interest in the successful working of the
Machines is not second to that of the purchas-
er, and we esteem it a privilege to aid, by cor
respondence or otherwise, any person who may
require it.

Flowing Deep and Shallow.

Says a correspondent: Long MS
the pillow has been in use, l am salts
fed that its proper use and adyanta-
Ses are little understood, except in
breaking the grotnd aud cultiyating
crops. In benefting tie land and
increasing its lroductyeness, we do
not fully understand what the pillow
is capable Of dong, if used properly.
For instance, my impressions are
that land should never be turned
over deeply more than once in two
years-pasturage once IN three years.
and when turned over, it would be
better for having on it a heavy
growth Of vegetable matter to turn
under for manurial purposes; and in
the intervening yosrs-between us
ing the heavy turn lloWs-it would
be best to break the g.ouud with
plows OF the subsoiling order. The
more We expose the soil by turning
it, the more the evaporation 0. its
chemical fcrtiljzing ingredients must
take place, viii will require a lar
ger amount Of manure to be applied,
to aestore what eyacoration and
plants have cXlau.ted. | believe
the ground should be thoroughly
and deeply broken at least once a
year, IN some iustauc twice, but
not so often with large turning
plows, let it be done with plows that
break deep and pulyerizo thoroughly
without tuning over the land. s.

of this, that | never turn over the
field with large turning plows but
once in two years, and my lads are

Intoxicating Nostrums.

olou;csu or "iuyigorantsn in halt an

tion TO this rule. Nobody can 'ge'
over fine bay" ON Vinegar Bltters, ior
the simple reason that tins famous rem
oyatiug and regulating medicine con-
tains NO difusiyc stimulants OF any
kind. Yctits strength esorying proper
ties are marvellous. 1t restores the rel
ish for food when all other appeti2erS
fail, imparts unwontcd yigor to the dl,
gestive functions, regulates the flow OF
bile, soothcs the nervous system, pro-
notes hcalthful sleep, and tends to pro
duce that condition of body and BRAN
which is supposed to be most conducive
to longevity and the enjoyment OF hie.
Its specific effects in acute and chrome
disorders affecting the stomach, the
bowels, the spine, the kidneys, the
heshy fibre, the muscles and lungs, are
considered by competent Judges the
most extraordinary medical phenomena
of the age. Vinegar Bitters has now n
larger sale than any of the s%pirituous
astriugcnts, and its immense popularity
in a land where the people observe

mtce Of the excellence of the medicine,
We recommend it to all.
