spoonful of salt; reserve a little -four to

The tenth letter tells her not to stop
one day more in her own country than
she can help. He continues, "You shall
come on the train from New York to
Pittsburg, and, please God, 1 will be at
the depot to receive you; and this is the
token that | will know you by. When
you step on the platform of the cars hold
a white handkerchief in your left hand.
Hold it out loose, so will see it, for no
body is allowed to go on the platform,
hold the white handkerchief in your left
hand and look straight to the opposite
side, and will be there, and the word /

Heaven be your guardian and guide, and
may He be your all and all by land and

The Eastern Steamboat Company commenced
Operations last week, and many of our
"Squirrel Island" friends will be pleased to
learn that the Spray will soon be replaced by
a more commodious boat, which will be more

be yacht connections with Squirrel Island.

are preparing to put up bark of 1900 tons.
They alone employ 1870 men, while the num-
erous other yards, which space forbids our

tories per day over that paid two years ago.

Attempted Murder.

Concord, n. H.. Is. In Gambia last night
mysterious attempt was made to murder a
boy of Is named John Emerson, who was
temporarily stopping at the house of Charles
Rome, farmer. noise alarmed some of
the family about midnight when young En-
erson was found in bed quite insensible, with
three terrible gashes inflicted upon his head
and face, inflicted with an axe, which was
found on the floor. There is slight prospect
of his recovery. The assassin obtained en-
trance through window and escaped the
same way. Some of the peighbors think the
act was committed by a boy about the same
age, named Wilfred Fitz, while asleep. Fitz
is somnsmbulist, and has frequently got up
in his sleep, and one night last week he was
found asleep in the attic of neighbours
house with large broad axe by his side. He
did not seem to know how he came there, but
investigation showed that he had got out of a
second story window at the house, taken this
axe and gone TO his neighbours house where
he was found. There is much speculation
about the affair.
