week selling to housekeepe-s material
which be represented could be used to
pu, a silver finish on any smooth sur
faced piece of metal. Pewter, brass.
&C.. might be made to Look ike silver.
h"usekeepers got out s"ii-d forks,
knives, stair rods aud other things that
needed rePoIishiue, and the fellow
showed them how to put a silver finish
on them that would last ten years, and
as matter of course then sold the
good ladies parcel Of the splendid
material. Some invested 25 cents, and
some as much as $l.00. Itwas money
thrown away, for in a day the silver
finish fades. The fellow promised to
return with another instsllment of hi.
finish within the coming month. How
the vict'mized housekeepers will re-
ceive him if he comes, remains to be
seen. Possibly ali entertainment at the
jail awaits him.

this exhibit is the claim set up by The De-
moclacy to all the vote not cast for the
regular Republican candidate. Ii wohld
be well for Republicans to bear this in
mind, and in future not suffer themselves
TO make diversions in the interest Of The
common enemy.
But taking the above figures as correct,
(and they are far from accurately they
are not dsheartening. 1t will be seen
tina, the total Opposition vote in said
eighteen States for 1872 is given at ,6i4,-
S39, and for 1874 it is only 1867 ,0l5; be-
inc gain of but AZ ,0z6 votes in the two
years, including all shades of politics and
isms not voting the Republican ticket.
The Republican vote in these eighteen
States for 1873 and 1874 falls short of that
cast for President Grant G0G,2 votes,
more than one-quarter of the whole. Out
of this vast "stay -at-home" list of voters.
the Democracy and all of its allies OF
every character. have been able to enroll
only 42,076 We do not perceive in this
much cause for Democratic jubilation.

Members Of the city government and others
interested, visited the line of the proposed
road UP the Vaughan stream from Water
street, on Thursday last, to the new wire man
nfacturng establishment of Messrs. Siickney,
Page &, Co., near the cascade. There can be
no doubt OF the necessity OF good and per-
manent road as contemplated, and it should
he built at the earliest practicable moment.
Messrs. S. J.. & Co. have erected spacious
and substantial buildings, and are now fitting
up their establishment with all the modern
improvements in machinery, ETC., for the
transaction of an extensive business. They
are also building a massive stone dam at the
Cascade" which will afford a fall of about
forty feet. This locality is well worth a visit
at the present time, to observe the great
change wrought in a few months by persever-
ing and well directed enterprise. We did not
earn what decision was arrived at concerning
the road, but have no doubt arrangements
will be made tor its construction satisfactory
90 all concerned. 1t is always wise policy 20
encourage every legitimate business enter
prise that will Inevitably add greatly to the
wealth and prosperity of our city.

With quite serious accident on "Wednesday

the same age, Master John Gould, were driv-

some cause the horse backed over the en-
bankment, and horse, wagon and boys found
themselves IN one promiscuous heap some
| twenty or thirty feet down the hill in the d.
| rection Of the granite sheds. Men in the vi

the boys and team. Young Lowell escaped
with the disloca,iun of one Of his shoulders.
