CURIosITY.-Mr. o. T.. Rochester Of
this town, brought in our office just as we
were going to press one of the greatest
curiosities we have ever seen. He presen.
ted to us the gizzarl of small chicken, the
chicken weighing only one pound and two
ounces, the gizzard we think, larger than
that of grown fowl, and in it was viper
snake, we suppose from eight to ten inches
in length. This chicken was killed for din :.
ner and seemed to be enjoying perfect
health. But about two inches of the snake
was visible, the rest being entirely enclosed
in the gizzard. Twas discoveredby the cook
10 her great alarm, whilst cleaning the
chicken. Truly wonders will never cease
II can be seen at his store at any time, and
is at this time still alive. - Denton JoRrndt

The reading Of the letter having been

nation Of Mr.. Lyons, and the refusal of

The DARK DAY IN l7s0.-We pub
lish today condensed account of this
remarkable phenomenon. The article
was originally published in tho Boston
Journal of June IA, 1881. The phe-
nomenou has never been explained.
The theory of some persons that
il was smoke and ashes from forest
fres, was disproved. No fires in The
forests could have been sufficient to
spread dense cloud over the whole Of
New England and even some parts of
the Middle States. It came too sud
denly, with no wind to carry it from
one point to another 1t was darkness
that settled down over an area of more
than 300, 900 square miles at the same
time.

The Sentinel Again.

The tone of the Scatinelt towards the
Advocate is somewhat modified in its
last issue, though it still insists upon it
that the Adcocatc is "utterly inconsist-
emit" That is simply the editors
opinion, and let it pass for what il is
worth. But, as he is not responsible
for our inconsistency, he presents him
self in the light of an intermeddler in
other mems affairs that do not concern
him. He says:
"lfour neighbor regards this as personal
and to be met with personal assaults upon
us, we can only say that, while we regret
his determination, we shall not follow him
into the sioughs of any such controversy;
nor shall we be sweryed from the line Of
our duty as the editor ola political paper
by such assaults. We have always esteemed
him as courteous and aifable gentleman
and shall continue to do so until be gives us
good cause to change that opinion.'f
We do not regard mere charge of
Inconsistency" as personal; our allega.
tion Of personalities against him rests
upon no such trivial grounds, as he
himself is very well aware. Why, then,
does he attempt to rest it upon such
grounds lie has charged the Adsoedts
not only with inconsistency, but with
being "libeller," and has called in
question its political "iutegrity" If
these are not gross personalities We don't
know what meaning attaches to Ian
guage. And yet, iorsooth, he says =
ave shall not JoJlo,O him into tia
sloughs of such controversy, nor be
swerycd from duty by such assauits. I"
This is an attempt to throw the onus Of
this controversy upon US, after he him.
self has made the assault, and as such,
is neither frank uor manly. He may
safely promise not to "follow," when he
has already preceded us into the slough
of personality. Not only has he been
thus personally offensive towards US,
himself, but he has permitted his cor.
respondents to be so; aud now, with an
air Of injured innocence, attempts to
advance the idea that the assault"
came from US. lie shall not escape
through any such subterfuge.
He "will not be swerved from the
line Of duy by such assaults" A pro-
per sense of duty would forbid him to
stir up acrimony by offensive PERSONAL
ties. 1t is not duty which actuates
him; duty makes nosuch demands upon
any one, and this cant about duty will
not avail him,
We are obliged to the editor of the
Sentinel for the estimation in which he
holds us as "a courteous and aifable
gentleman" We trust we shall never
be found wanting in courtesy or affabi.
i'y towards any Que; but these qualities
are called into active exercise only
through reciprocity. They demand
courtesy and affability in return. The
discussion of party principles is emf
nently proper; but personal inveetive is
a very different thing. We trust tina.
We shall not again be made the subject
of it.

The sudden change in the tempera.
ture of the air has apprized US of the
near approach of autumn. This change
which was preceded by fne rains has
aroused the energies of our farmers in
making the necessary preparation for
the fall seeding. Securing good seed
grain, fertilizing aud patting the soil 10
proper condition to receive the seed, is
receiving special attention.
The crop of clover seed here will fall
short Of that Of last season in quantity,
but the quality OF the seed is considered
equally as good.
Corn is ripening finely aud if not
oyertakeu by unusual early lrosts, it
will be well matured in proper time
Cider making, butter boiling and fruit
preserving are much III vogue at this
time.
