ALE. BURNETT. One of the best
entertainments given in this city for long
time, was that rendered by Aft. Burnett
and his troupe, last Monday evening, at
Turner Hall. There was fair audience proa
eDt, and all were kept in a high state of
good humOr by the comicalities, wry faces,
anu continued drolleries ofMr. Burnett. He
is Certainly second to none in his line, and
is sure to take wherever he goes. By spec
ial request Mr., Burnett recited the poem of
Shamus OBrien, which he delivered with a
feeling of pathos and humor hard to be ex-
celled. Taken at whole we never saw an
audience better pleased with an entertain
ment, and should Mr.. Burnett ever appear
here again, we have no doubt crowded
house would greet him.

THE returns of sales of the different

sewing machines, during the year 1871,
show the Singer machine to be by the far
the most popular of all in the market, the
number sold being l8l, 200, out Of total of
Clio, 1914 of twenty-five different patterns
1t appears, too, that the Chicago Relief
Committee, which undertook to furnish sew
sewing machines to persons needing them
supplied 2, 427 Singer machines against Z
of ali other kinds. This preference for the
Singer machine is due to its intrinsic super
iority andl seems likely to be maintain ed
against all competion.-NeO York San.

There has been considerable talk here lately
about the erection of Railroad shops IN this
city by the Chicago and Northwestern
Railway, to take the place of those at James
vile. Ii IS the intention, we understand, to
have Watertown the point of the first run
between Chicago and Escanaba. thus
m aking this place an important station on

hesitate to say that the Northwestern com
pany would find it greatly to their interest
to establish these shops in this city, and we
trust there Is something more tangible
about the proposition than mere report.

SUSPICIOUS CHARACTERISTIC sew
eral weeks past two suspicious looking
characters whom it would be well for our
citizens TO look out for, have been seen
prowling about our streets without any
visible means of support except the standing
they manage to maintain in their shoe leath-
er. Although they distribute themselves
promiscuously around the princ ipal corners
of the city, yet they appear to oscilliate
chiefly between Ed. Sweeney's on the one
side of the river, and ST. Randal's on the
other. To enter into detailed description
OF these men is impossible, rs words would
fail to describe the righteousness of their
appearance and the hang-dog look they
wear. They seem to be afraid to look an
honest man in the face, a popularity of
theirs we have right to know, having our
selves met the chaps the other day, and
they both held their heads down as if in
meditation and prayer. We do not hest
tate to pronounce these midday marauders
desperate characters and capable OF any act
from taking q census Of the dogs on the
street to starting cheese factory. Before
our city is lowered in the eyes of the civil
lized world, and compelled to be placed I'M
der more bonds through the lawlessness of
these men, we call upon our authorities to
attend to their case. Notwithstanding they
btoh announce themselves as Grant men, yet
one of them is with Greeley on the ''Protec-
ton" question. We are likewise in with
Greeley cor any other man." for tprotec-
zion" against such vile characters.

The Statistical Congress.

Information has been received in
Washington from ST. Petersburg indi-
eating that the members of the Interna-
tional Statistical Congress were treated
by the Russian Government and NUM-
cipality of st. Petersburg with marked
kindness and highest consideration.
Free transportation by rail was furnish
ed them from the frontier to st. Peters
burg, where the delegates were met by
Government officers on their arrival
and directed to hotels, at which accom-
modations had been provided for them
at public expense.
The former building of the Secretary
of the Interior, handsomely fitted up
for the occasion, was placed at the dis
posal of the congress for the meeting of
It's several sections. Postal and tele-
graphic facilities, and all the leading
newspapers of Europe, were provided in
the building. Carriages for the use of
the delegates were placed at their sew
eral hotels, and every convenience
which care and forethought could sug-
gest was abuadantly provided. There
seems to be general desire among the
European members of the congress to
hold the next session, two years hence,
n the United States.

IS LOSt.O

There is good deal of tragedy in the
word lost" even when we do not use it
in its theological sense. "Child lost"
is phrase painfully suggestive, nor is
it pleasant for a wife to lose her hus-
band. Yet nothing is more common
than mysterious disappearance. The
English police during 1870 were called
on for assistance in the cases of 5,753
lost persons, and of these 1874 were
under ten years of age. The police
found and restored 2,6l9 children and
446 adults; 81 adults committed sui
eide and at the close of the year four
children and sixty-four adults were still
missing. 1t will be noticed that the
police were much more successful in
finding children than adults, which
leads to the suspicion that a good many
of the latter were not particularly de.
sirous of being found, having their own
reasons for remaining lost" Some OF
them are still missing at the time OF
making up the report may ultimately
be found but, of course, there must be
some will never be heard of. aa

The Walnut Leaves.

The fly, insignificant as it is in size,
and devoid of the power Of doing any
great harm, is one of the most annoy
ing little pests of all the insect tribe.
A nuisance to man, the fly is the terror
of the horse, whose flesh is made to
culver whenever the foot of one touches
him. 1t is, therefore, an act of hui
mainly to come to the aid of the horse,
powerful as heis, against his nimble as
sailant, the fly. Here is a recipe which
is said to be an excellent defense
against it. AT all events, trial of it
will not involve much expense, nor will
it do harm should it prove unavailing
as defense to the horse:
Take two or three small handfuls of
walnut leaves, upon which pour two or
three quarts of cold water; let it infuse
one night, and pour the whole next
morning into kettle and let it boil for
a quarter of an hour; when cold it will
be fit for use. No more is required
than to moisten sponge, and before
the horse goes out of the stable, let
those parts which are the most irritable
be smeared over with the liquor, viz
between and upon the ears, the neck,
etc. Not only the lady or gentleman
who drives out for pleasure Will derive
benefit from the walnut leaves thus
prepared, but The goodman, the wag-
oner and slI others who use horses dur
ing the hot months.

Diamond Dreams.

Gov. Stafford, in letter to the San
Diego Union, tells what he knows about
diamonds as follows: GO a year and
half ago I learned to a certainty that
diamonds had been found either in
Arizona or near the line. The informa-
ton received was confidential, and I
knew it to be true. I,with three others,
then commenced the work of finding
the place. We followed rumors, winks,
and mods, with about as much earnest
ness as Japhet looked for his father.
Finally, on the Navajo Reservation, We
thought we had found it, but as rubies
were much more easily obtained than
diamonds, we contented ourselves with
gathering rubies. We collected the
value of million or two each, and con-
Guided we had enough to make our
selves comfortable and our friends also.
We took them to San Francisco. and
sent some to Boston. They proved to
be garnets, ard of no value, and the
beautiful dreams of schools and col
leges we would build up, aud poor peo-
pie We would make happy, all vanished,
and we found ourselves, as before, strug.
Cling to make the ends meet"

The Steam Engine and Civilization.

In discussing this question the Quar-
terly Revie,o says: The steam-engine,
mighty as slave, is the hardest and
most brutalizing Of masters. 1t has
called into existence new class in the
social scale, class unknown save BY
name a century ago, a class which no
great statesman has yet dared to look
in the face. This class is that of the
operatives, the men, women, and chill
dren who are the Helots of the steam
engine. Without that culture of the
intelligence which every craft neces-
sarily produces in the craftsman; with
out that healthy simplicity which at
taches to agricultural and open.air en-
Payments; shut out from the influence
of man, in his industrial and social &C
tiyity, by the many-windowed walls of
the factory shut out from the light and
voice of God as he speaks in the aspects
OF nature, the operative class is hourly
adding up terrible score which socie-
ty will some day have to iquidate.-
