REASONS WHY.-The reasons why DIR.
Prices Special Flavorings, Cinnamon, LEM
on. Vanilla, ETC., are superior to all others,
is because they are prepared from the
choicest selected fruits and aromatics,
without coloring or poisonous oils, that all
the flavoring principles are retained UNI
changed by chemical action, highly eoneen-
trated requiring less to favor, that there
is no deception in bottles as they hold one

ATTEMPTED HIGHWAY ROBBERY IN

Bridport, was returning home from the
Crownpoint and Bridport Fair held at
Crowppoint last week, he had an expert.
ence not often occurring in this state.
Passing leisurely along down the hill
between Deacon Amos Hamiton's and
Mr.. A. G. Hamilton's, about 10 o'clock
Friday night, he was suddenly stopped
by two men, whom he did not recognize,
one Selling his horse and the other pre-
sentiDg revolver at his head and de-
manding his mouey,in emphatic language.
He expostulatcd with the rascal upon
taking the whole of it, but nothing short
Of the whole would satisfy 50 Mr..
Payne put his hand in his pocket as if to
take out his pocket book but instead took
out large California knife and struck
the would be robber upon the head. Up.
on receiving the blow he cried out "Oh
God - and fell upon the ground. Mr.
Payne then struck his horse and rode
over the accompice, and went on home
as fast as possible. When be arrived
home he found he had broken about hal
an inch from the end of his knife. Moth

other is grizzly grey, line back medium

Mr.. Francis Ayres Of Weybridge,
sent last week, samples Of the potatoes
he raises, and from these we must infer
that that particular part Of Weybridgc il
not the whole of it, is equal to the best
town in the state, for raising potatoes.
They are the early rose variety and both
as to size and quality, are among the
finest VIC have ever tested.
ACCIDENT ON THE ADDISON RoAD.-Thc
mail train over the Addison road which
usually leaves Port Henry at 7.15 e. m &.
was, on Saturday, detained until 2 p. m,
owing to the engine (the Pico) running off
the track at defective switch. "Brim"
had his hands full for few hours, but
his pluck and energy were, as usual,
equal to the emergency and notwithstand-
ing all the predictions that the "Pico"
could not be run to Leicester Junction,
"Brim" said she should go, and she went.
The Vermonter says the two rams
" Bonaparte and Silver Horn own
cd by Messrs. Williamson e. Cherbino
were great point of attraction to sheep
breeders during the State Fair, and fully
merited the prominence given them by the
awarding committee. The 10 lbs. fleece
OF Silver Horn, was of rare finencss and
texture. He was sired by Bonapartc,
and bred by Ii. G. Burwell of Bridport,
who sold him for S1500-S2000 would
not buy him of his present owners.
On Friday eve., the 10Th inst, the
house OF John T. Hawkins in Salisbury
was entered, during the absence Of Mrs.
H., by four rowdies, who frightened the
servant girl by brandishing large knife.
The girl is a German, and can neither
speak nor understand English much.
They made themselves at home, by open
lug closets, &c. No plumber was taken
from the premises, as has been ascer-
tanned, save some of the occupants Of the
hen roost.
MARRIED.-In Weybridge Sept. 10Th,
by Rev. L. g. Partridge, of Salisbury,
Mr. Chester Elmer of Middlebury, and
Mrs. Henry Wales of Weybridge. The
bridal party took trip to St. Adams VT,
Montreal, 2. O., Canton N. Y. &C., and
will return to settle in Middlebury village.
She will be very much missed in Wey-
bridge, as she was known and highly es.
teemed by all. The church, Sabbath
school, prayer meetings, her old home aud
society generally will feel her absence.
None but good wishes follow her to her
new home.
On Monday the 18th inst, Mr. Hen.
ry Hayes about twenty-six years of age
an employ in the Marble Mill at Beden's
Falls, while engaged in painting on the
outside of the mill, got his shirt sleeve
caught in shaft that makes thirty. seven
revolutions per minute, and was carried
with this fearful velocity until his cloth.
ing was literally torn from him, throwing
him distance Of about twenty-five feet
upon a guy chain, and from thence upon
block of marble He was picked up as
dead. DR.. E. Z. Russell of Middlebury
was called in attendance No limbs were
broken, but the whole front of his mouth
was completely broken in, and he was
otherwise badly bruised. For many hours
he lay in an unconscious state, but is now
in fair way to recover. So says the at
tending physician.
