A THRILLING ScENE.-Ha.ght's circus was
at Albany, Georgia, on New Years day. Four
new cages were received. there, and it be.
came necessary to change some Of the anP
mails. To transfer The hyena collar was
placed on bis neck, but he managed to slip 1t
over his head. The keeper entered the cage
to adjust it, and as soon as he entered the
cage The hyena, who was enraged, sprang
upon him. The scene was thrilling 10 the ex-
treme. The man screamed and yeiled-an
oath and prayer alternating. The fight was
for life. The keeper fought desperately to
keep from being killed outright. His clothes
were literally torn in shreds, bat BY almost
supernatural efforts he prevented his flesh
being lacerated. BE was rescued by some Of
the men attacking The hyena with crowbars.
Those who saw the scene say they never wish
to see another like 1t.

GREENSBORO.

On the '26th ult. Mrs. Hammond, aged
II years, fell down stairs, breaking her
hip and receiving other severe injuries.
The sugar season was below the aver
age this year. A few early places made
2 pounds to the tree, others from to
l l-2. McClary is buying the best for
8 cents
Thursday is market day here last week
McClary took at Rabbits store nearly
four tons of butter and sugar. Pretty
we'll for small town and soon we shall
see the benefits of a railroad.
Two native COWS belonging to S. In
gals have made good record for the
past year. Within that time the sales
OF butter made from them have been
625 lbs, and of milk 237 quarts, besides
all the butter, cream and milk needed
and used in family of FIVE persons.
There evidently is not much enthusi-
assn for Grant here, judging from the
result of the caucus to elect delegate To
Bellows Falls. There was not interest
enough to get out quorum, so went by
default. We ought to have few office
holders in town.

Latest From Cincinnati.

The contest ended. Horace Greeley
nominated for President, and B. Gratz
Brown for Vice President. Horace Gree
ley is old enough to be President, and
lie wants the position bad enough, but
in our opinion he is too shaky about the
knees. The universal expression in this
vicinity. so far as we have heard. among
both Republicans and Democrats, is Il
won t vote for him.
The Kennebeck (Me.) Journal contains
an editorial on the Cincinnati tisket in
which the editor, anticipating Democrat
ic support of that ticket, says:
''How pleasant they will gather under
his leadership! What delightful asso-
Citations link them to his name and for
tune How softly his Black Republican,
ism viii be shaded down to Comprehend
ism undefled! Will they forgive him
for the war, which they say he did more
than any other man to bring on? for
the emancipation of the negroes and
turning the South into Bedlam, as
they declared ? for the creation of
the public debt and heavy taxation in
consequence of the rebellion for all the
evils which they charge to Black Repub-
licans, of which he was certainly one of
the blacklist? for the exemption of
the bloated bondholder from taxation ?
and so on through a long catalogue Of
this sort? Suppose they happen to ex-
empt the files Of their Democratic news
papers since the time of Henry Clay, OF
read Democratic speeches made within
fifteen years, how will they reconcile
them with the support of Horace Greeley
for President now? How will the name
of Horace Greeley look upon a Demo-
cratic banner in the campaign? Will
not the banner blush, or wear d broad
grin We should think Democrats
would rally around such a banner as
/ birds around scarecrow. Why, the
very youngest in the streets laugh a
! the idea.

THE RECOVERY OF DR.. LIVINGSTONE.

lie hECONER DE DR. Livingstone.
The anxiety which has been felt con-
corning the fate of that indefatigable
explorer of Africa, DR.. Livingstone, ever
since his last letters in 1867, has final
ly been relieved by the enterprise of the
New York Herald and the personal dash
and courage Of Herbert Stanley. The
same active brain and stern will which
organized the grand ssbeat" at the time
of the Abyssinian expedition have tri-
umphed over climate, hostile. natives
and the terrible fatigues of African trav-
el-found '.the old man with the long
white beard" and the two are now safe
at Ujiji or '.Thereaway' The English
expedition after Livingstone, which from
the date of its departure from England
seems to have been nothing but grand
picnic, may now return home in peace and
reflect upon the Abyssinian and African
triumphs of Mr.. Stanley with whatever
equanlmity Of spirit it may possess. The
Herald expedition was organized early
in 1871, and Stanley set off by some
what different route from that taken by
previous explorers, guided only by the
meagre hints from the natives that Liv-
ingstone had been seen here and there.
in the fall of 1871, Stanley found him.
self in the midst of petty wars many
of the members of his expedition died,
and he himself was so Frustrated by fe-
yer that he was reduced almost to a skel-
eton, and the rumor Of his death which
soon followed, was very generally believ-
ed. But he recovered, and pushed on
toward Livingstone, carrying him sup
plies, and finally finding him-where,
exactly when, and how. we are not yet
informed There seems, however, to be
no longer any doubt as to the authen-
ITCHY of the intelligence. DR. Living
stone has been gone seven years from
England, and had been given up for
dead by the English Government with a
cheerful resignation which was unpleas-
ant to contemplate, until the American
search expedition was started Boston

THE TREATY.-It seems as though
our government was going to so modify
its claims for indirect damages as to
save the Washington treaty. and we
trust, save our own credit also 1t has
looked of late as though the treaty would
fail altogether, but the following dis
patch from Washington is hopeful:
There can no longer be doubt that
Secretary Fish has taken pains to in
form the British Government in an indi-
rect way that, while we cannot withdraw
or amend our case as it has been pre-
sented at Geneva, we do not expect or
desire an award in our favor, and only
desire to have the controversy ended.
In short, Mr.. Fish has authorized Gen.
Schenck to tell Lord Granville what
he had said privately here all win
ter, that the claim for constructive dam
ages is a part of the argument, and that
we never expected anything to come
from it. It is charged by enemies of
/ the administration that the last note of
Gen. Schenck is a surrender, a back
down, but it is unjust to characterize it
in that manner 1t is doubtless an at
tempt to so compromise the differences
between the two countries as to save
the treaty.
The following dispatch from London
to the n Y. World, under date of April
so, seems to confirm the above:
am authorized to say that the Brit
ish Government considers the claim for
indirect damages withdrawn. Mr.. Glad
stone and Earle Granville will compli-
ment President Grant in Parliament for
yielding to their demands.

FUNERAL FARcEs.-The time may
soon come when respectable people will
have to desist from decorating the tombs
of their departed friends; as the prac-
tice has been SO widely adopted and so
ridiculously perverted b. people with
whom one would not care to claim COM
panionship even in the graveyard. This
remark is suggested by paragraph,
going the rounds, which deliberately de-
scribes the floral decorations recently
laid upon the grave of James Fisk. The
paragraph tells US that among them is
design composed principally of white
flowers, displaying the afectionate
title Husband, in fragrant violets.
How exquisitely appropriate for the
tomb of man whose marital inf
deity was notorious throughout the
country Another is described as -s.a
cross, eighteen inches in height, resting
on a pedestal, covered on both sides with
red and white roses" Think of that,
in memory of a fellow whose whole life
was scoff at all the great principles of
the religion symbolized by the cross
And then we are told that 1.-The most
elaborate design was crown, composed
of orange flowers, tn beroses, violets,
and other rare flowers. Fitting trib-
ute to so fragrant a memory But we
do not feel so much like censuring the
weakness and absurdity of the mourners
as the stupidity of the itemizers who
record, commend, and perpetuate such
stuff. Newspaper columns are all too Ii
able to contain falshoods Of their own,
and have no need to borrow them from
the cemeteries.

VINO FIRED CHICAGO PA Swedish
paper publishes a story to the effect that
a short time ago man arrived in ket-
tilstad. a small village in Sweden, bring
ing with him large amount of money
and big box filed with jewels and 9th
er yaluables He was soon after taken
with the smallpox and died; but some
days previous to his death confessed, in
in the presence Of several persons, that
he, with some accomplices, had started
the fire which resulted in the destruction
of Chicago. The story is not very
probable one, but still, as it has been
fairly proved that Mrs. OLeary's COW
was innocent of having caused the great
disaster, it is not impossible that it may
be true.

The following items are from the Lyn-
don Union.
On Monday last, the through freight
coming from the north ran into the
rear end of way freight which was
just starting to set off at the Thetford
depot Willie McMullen, with the
General Chase was drawing the
through freight, and Pat Hoye, with the
"Stickney,' had the other At that
point, the through freight usually passes
the way freight, whose men breakfast
there McMullen had very long train,
and we learn that an unusual force of
the cars drove the engine trife too far.
The damage was not serious, but the en-
CINE will have to 60 to the hospital few
days.
On Monday last, one of the wood
sheds of the railroad company, with
nearly 1000 cords of wood, was burned.
A fire not larger than common pail was
first seen upon the roof at twenty min
utcs to eleven, just after the engine
Pony had passed, and it is supposed
spark from the chimney caused the fire.
Almost in moment, the flames spread
over the roof. One of the company's
hydrants did good service, but was pow
erless to resist the flames. When the
fire got into the wood, it was beyond the
reach of water. At four o'clock the st.
Johnsbury engine .'Deluge,'' under the
charge of B. T. Rollins, came up and
rendered valuable aid The citizens on
East street were under great fears for
their houses, as the wind blew in that
direction, carrying burning shingles
upon the roofs of the houses. A strict
and general vigilance, however, confined
the fire to that one point
The new passenger engine "Albert
Knights was put into service last
week.
Next Monday Ito day. the first sleep
ing car will be put upon the Pasumpsic
road, running on the express train. In
few days the time Of this train is to
be changed, and it will 60 down and
back in the night This deprives the
local travellers of the convenience Of the
UP noon train, and must considerably
decrease that kind of travel 1t is now
so convenient that people run up and
down the line more than they would un.
der almost any other arrangement. Per-
haps the through travel of the night may
make up the loss. If it does they viii
run good trains.
On Saturday afternoon last, wood
sawyer named Titus, stepped off the en-
gine at Thetford and walked along be
side the engine, when he stepped of
the platform by mistake, and the engin,
passed over him, cutting his body near
ly in two lengthwise. He leaves a wife
and children.
On Saturday last, Frenchman work
ing on the wood train near North Hat
ley was killed under the following cir
cumstances. As the train was moving
some wood fell off, and got ender tn
trucks, giving the cars jolt. Two mel
, jumped of-one was uninjured, Will

On oats sowed about 200 lbs of the Phosphate the
and never raised such oats before The straw
was very Stout but they did not LODGE and ripened
to ten days earlier than those sowed the
time by my neghbors, without Phosphate. The yield
strty bushels to the acre of good OATS that would
weigh 81 lbs to the bushel being most many again
