The SILVER WEDDING Of Mr.. and Mrs. Jas
NJ. AlIer was celebrated at their residence, in
Auburn, in Il very happy manner, on the even
ing of Jan. Sd. The occasion called together
some fifty of their immediate neighbors-who
came bringing appropriate tokens of regard for
their friends, now in the silvery sheen of lite--a
regard shared very largely by all the people of
the town. The most interesting feature of the
gathering was the presentation, through Rev. E
Davis, of a cup containing over two hundred
silver half dollars, with the following note:
BosToN, Jau. g. 1872.
"Will Mr.. and Mrs Ager please accept this
Gift as testimonial Of the high esteem in
which they are held by the undersigned
with the sincere hope that they may enjoy many
happy returns of the day" This note was
signed by Hon. Gencry Twchell, A. Firth, Esq.
and some forty other gentlemen, mostly con-
nected, we believe, with the management of the
Boston and Albany railroad. Mr.. Alger, by
twenty-five years service, has earned very high
reputation as one OF the most able and faithful
engineers on that road Much interest was
added to the occasion by the music of a quar-
tette, under the direction of Geo Bancroft Esq.

Forty Millions of People Gathered in
a Single Shed-Programme, Acct
dents, &c.

The doxology carnival commenced in Bos-
ton, on Monday. An ambitious son of the
May Flower, who counted them says there
were just forty million persons present, not in
cluding twins. At the appearance of Gilmore
on the stage, eleven hundred cords of fire
crackers were fired off by little girls, dressed
in pink, white and yaller. The proceedings
were opened by prayer, and chorus. The solo
was delivered by Rev. Phillip Brooks, and the
amen chorus was echoed by detachment of
male veterans, from the hills of Berkshire
county, hundred miles distant, Mayor Gas
ton then told the company how highly tickled
he was to see them, and closed with refer
ence to the passage relating to where two or
three are gathered together, &c. A Law SER
mon was then preached by Gen. Banks. The
programme of music was then spread out, bu
as several Of the hymns are not familiar to u,

who stated that his bass singer was up on the
roof pairing his corns and would not be back
in time to join. A boy who was fishing in tbe
Mystic River, says the first invoice of bass
passed that point, at three minutes after
two, which was just twenty-seven seconds
from the time the Judge struck in.
The remainder of the programme consisted
of Quartettes, twenty thousand tettes Anvilet-
cites, Marinetettes, Firetettes, and hymns in
single harness. The first day passed with on
ly few accidents. One set of false teeth
was blown from its moorings and das he'd
against the proboscis of an ancient quaker
maiden. One lady singer had the roof of her
mouth blown of, and another had the gable
end of her tongue stove IN

SPECIAL NOTICES.
APitifmI Condition.

1t is a sad thing to pass through life only hall
alive. Yet there are thousands whose habitual
condition is one of languor and debility They
complain of no specific disease; they suffer no
positive pain; but they have no relish for any
thing which affords mental sensuous pleasure.
In nine cases out of ten this state Of lassitude and
torpor arises from morbid stomach. Indigestion
DESTROYS the energy of both mind and body.
When the waste OF nature is not supplied by a due
and regular assimilation of the food, every organ
is starved, every function is interrupted.
Now, what does common sense suggest under
these eircumstancesOf depression The system
needs rOusing and strengthening; not merely for
an hour OF two, to sink afterWard into more pitt
able condition than ever (as 1t assuredly would do
if an ordinary alchoholic stimulant were resorted
to- but radically and permanently.
How is this desirable object to be accomplished! /!
The answer to this question, founded on the un-
varying experience Of quarter of a century, Is
easily given. Intuse new vigOr into the digestive
organs by course Of Hostetters Stomach BItters.
Do not waste time by administering temporary
remedies, but wake the system up by TecuperatiDg

depend for their nurture and support.
By the time that dozen doses of the great veg

influence. Appetite will be created. and with ap-

PIT. Barnum on the Fifth.-We have
determined that our day for celebrating our
usual anniversary, shall be on the Fifth, in
stead of the Fourth of July this year. This
NAV be thought strange by some of our read
ers: but is not P. T. Barnum patriotic? Did
he not surrender on several occasions during
the war the eutire gross receipts of his Muse
um in New York for the benefit of soldiers and
the army? Well then, lets all hands unite
with Barnum and his great show, in Fremont,
on Friday the fifth day of July, and join in
the festivities of an occasion likely to be as
memorable for its happy associations, as that
day in the darker periods of our national his
tory was marked and ilustrious of the deter
limitations of young and vigorous people,
struggling to be FREQ and Independent.
There will be three grand exhibitions of
what is every where declared to be the"Great-
est Show on Earth" )" in Fremont, on the day
of Barnum's visit Excursion trains will be
run on all the railroad lines to bring in the
people for distance of forty or fifty miles.

of admission, to say nothing Of the show. No
event in the whole history of amusements, in
Fremont, has ever transpired in which tenth
of public interest has been excited, like that
growing out of the advent of the great Bar
mum. The show stayed two daysi in Cleveland
and it is estimated that ten thousand people
were turned away unable to get in. OF course
there will be no such rush here, and no dan
ger of any person being disappointed, as Mr..
Barnum has ordered the enlargement of his
Hippodrome Pavilion, Sc that it Will have a
seating capacity for fifteen thousand persons.
The Sea Lions, Giraffe, Riding Goat, and FIJI
Cannibals are exciting intense interest, and
constitute some of the leading novel features
of this Mammoth Worlds Fair
The patent gas jets, with which the tents
are lighted are said to be so brilliant as to
fairly dazzle the eyes of spectators at night, !
and lend to the toute ensemble an indescribable
charm. Barnum never buries his talents, nor
hides his Light under busheI, but all his ac-
tons are characterized by an efficiency, equal
to the fabled mountain of light, which Hero
dotus declared, in his early history of India,
to illuminate half an empire.

Apology.-Any bitterness that may be
noticed, in our articles this week, may be at
tributed to the fact that malicious vender of
shirt patterns has again invaded our sanctum.
The effect of water upon rabid dog, is not
more terrible than the sight of a shirt pattern
man to us. The saddest experiences of our
life are closely associated with these shirt pat
tern colporteurs, and while the determination
to have redress, and the memory of continued
tortures, were still fresh in our mind, another
of the same class came along to add insult to
injury. Unfortunately five or six men were
in the Office and held us while he escaped, else
there might have been consequences. We
will here add that we have second hand
shirt pattern, warranted by the seller to fit the
largest boy or smallest man; can be used for
cutting any garment from an insole for pat
ent leather boot, to full dress suit with q
polonaise, and when not used as pattern
makes an excellent table cloth, or horse-net.
We will sell it cheap for cash, or take real es-
tate in exchange. 1t will make an excellent
heirloom for small family, with no chill
dren.

Green Springs Water Cure.-Few
persons, unless they have paid visit to the
place, can form any idea of the commodious.
ness of the Water Cure establishment, at Green
Springs, this county, or Of the beauty of its
surroundings. 1t is an immense building, sit
uated on bluff above the springs, and con-
tains accommodations for over 100 persons.
The house was opened to the public some
years ago, and has acquired deservedly pop
ulsr reputation, owing to the excellent man
agement which prevails. 1t is owned by a
stock company, and the grounds Immediately
connected with it comprise ten acres although
the lessees, Messrs Sprague IL Stockley, have
control of tract of two hundred acres,
which may be said to be the pleasure grounds
of the Cure. The present lessees have made
very valuable permanent improvements to the
place, since taking charge of it, among which
arc largo billiard room and ball alley, which
are situated upon the opposite side of the
creek on a shady bluff, and is consequently a
very cool retreat, as well as place of amuse-
ment to invalids. 1t isapproached by one of the
handsomest rustic bridges we have ever seen,
also a late Improvement. At present there
are about so persons stopping at the Cure,
most of them, however, are not invalids, but
persons who have sought it as a quiet retreat
from the heat of summer and the WEAKNESS of
business life. To add to the attractions and
pleasures Of the place, the lessees have secured
the services Of an excellent band, and on Sat,

A WORD In REGARD
To THE
Sewing Machine Business.

THE SEWING MACHINE is one Of the
greatest improvements of the age, and at this
day and age of the world every family must
and viii have one. This fact appears to be
perfectly understood by all Sewing Machine
Companies, consequently every company ia
making every effort in their power to put
their machines forward, and to make sales as
rapidly as possible They employ every per-
son they can get, and shree-fourths of those
employed are not ft for the business, eonss-
quently the country is now oYerrun with men
and boys representing themselves as Sewing
Machine Agents,and everyone elaimingto have
the best machine, when, in fact, they know
nothing about machines, consequently the
business has become nuisance-it is over
done and overrun with unprineipled agents,
and almost every farmer breads to see ons
stop at his gate.
But to lay all prejudice aside, the New VIII
son is the only First-class Machine in America
taat is sold at a reasonable price; price with
in the reach Of every family. The New VIII
son stands to-day at the head as being the best,
tle simplest, the easiest to manage, the most
durable, and by far the cheapest. The Wilson
now costs $500 more to manufacture than any
other machine In America, and Is sold for
$500 less than any other frst-class machine.
This simply because it is not in the "COm-
bination." This machine Is sold for Just what
/ it is worth, while all others are sold from
$500 to 5000 more than they are worth
| The undersigned has been selling the VII
sou for one year at his Grocery and Croeksry
Store in Fremont, and has sold Five Hundred
Machines. and nearly all have been sold in
sandusky County, and have never yet had
an apsnt cut soliciting sales or boring the peo-
nIs to buy. Every machine has been ordered.
This. 1 think, is the largest sale that has ever
bAen made IL the county. This fact of itself
Is certainly sufficient evidence that the ma
chine is good one All other companies have
drummed and bored the people nearly 70
death to sell their machines, and IN very many
instances people have bought simply to get nd
Of the agent Nov, We claim that the proper
way, and the only way, TO buy 3 maehine, is to
go town and see and try eli the machines and

Closing Stores.-We understand that all
effort is being made to have our merchants
close their stores, in the evening, at eight
O'Clock. In many places merchants have
adopted this system, and find that in all re-
spects it is good one. The amount of busi-
ness done after that hour does not pay for the
gas consumed, and where it is uniformly OBJ
served, no one suffers any loss, but on the con-
trary all are gamers. A man who attends at
tentively to business, from seven in the morn
ing until eight in the evening, will make mon
ey by devoting the remaining heurs 10 rest.
We believe that if our merchants would give
this system trial they would desire to con-
tinue it.

Church Robbers Arrested.-FOr $,

Church Robbers Arrested.-Fo some
time past depredations on the churches about
MOnroeville and Bellevue were quite frequent,
and the perpetrators escaped without detec-
tion. But it so happened that lady from
MonroeviIle last week visited family named
Sioat, or something like that, living between
Lyme Church and Bellevue noticed upon
the floor lhe carpet which used to be upon the
hoor of the Episcopal Church at Monroeville.
Upon returning home, she reported the fact,
and officers were detailed with warrants to in
vestigate. The consequence was that various
articles belonging to the different churches,
as well as other articles were found The man
and his wife were arrested and taken to Nor
walk, where for want of bail the man was
placed in jail to await trial. The woman was
bailed by her father. A man, supposed to be
one of the depredators, whom the officers at
tempted to secure, made his escape, and is
yet at large.
