We are in receipt of the two first
numbers of the Palladium, the new pa
per published by NJ. t. Hatch of North
Troy. The paper is of the same size of
the MONITOR, is well printed and we'll
edited. Thus far it is much better than
the Reporter, lately published by Mr..
Hatch at East Hardwick. We cordially
welcome Mr.. Hatch to our county, and
if the field is not large for the three To-
cal papers Of the county, We must make
each better, so that it will win a sup
port that will keep it alive. Mr.. Hatch
is type-setter. and proposes to do much
of his work himself, so that his expens-
es will be light. The Express is carried
on in connection with the Probate Court,
a book and dry goods store, and, per-
haps, q post-ofice, so that that will not
suffer if it loses portion of its subscri.
bers. The MONITOR will command such
patronage as its friends choose to give
it, and try and exc out an existence a;
heretofore.

The great crucible steel casting for
the Woolwich new 8l-ton gun was run
at the works Of Messrs. Thomas Firth &
Sons, Sheffield, on Friday last. In its
production 1914 men were engaged, who
emptied CPS crucibles, each weighing
20 pounds net, into the casting pit The
weight of the casting in the rough is
therefore about 20 tons, its length in
the mould being l3 feet and diameter
~ inches. When it has been allowed
to cool in very gradual manner for
some time, it will be sheathed and we'll
hammered by the 25-ton Nasmyth ham
mers of the firm, until it is of proper
size and suitable density. 1t is destined
to form the interior or tube for the great
piece of ordnance alluded to, and is the
largest steel casting yet turned out. 1t
will be turned. tempered. ETC., at WOOL
wich. Messrs. Firth's works possess IN
equalled facilities and appliances for
this class of heavy work. The whole Of
the tubes for large guns for the British
| government are made by them, as we'll
as the bulk of the barrels for rifles and
other steel articles. They have erected
two steam hammers of % tons each, at
a cost of over e33, 900, and their lathes,
boring apparatus, ETC., rank amongst the
most powerful and best finished of the
whole world.

MILL RIVER INCIDENT.-lt was a
common incident for a family to be
caught in morning undress. The moth
er of one family was in morning wrap
per, and the children were running about
in their nightgowns, and shoeless, when
the warning came. The mother caught
the infant, and, as she left the house,
grabbed the cloth from the breakfast
table, and this was all the clothing the
family saved.

noyanee of a transfer of baggage and
passengers at Richford which Is now
done with teams, the distance being
over mile between the stations of the
two roads. This will greatly facilitate
communication between the North

state, and will be a great convenience
to the travelling public.
A fast train making close connections
between Boston and Montreal has been

quickest line between the two will be-

and the unrivaled scenery and other at

HORSE STATISTICS.

The United States contain in round
numbers nine million horses, estimated
to be worth s666, 100000; France, 81
663. 900; Austria, 100000; England,
1856, 200; Germany, 2,59O,OOO; Prussia,
100000; Turkey, 100000. These
figures show that we have nearly five
times as many horses as Prussia; four
times as many as England; two and a
half times more than France; and
about three times as many as Austr a.

Us to raise horses for service In Europe
at a good profit to the producer. Make

radical differences should exist. There
can be no doubt in the world
but that those who have studied
the fungold diseases Of plants, and
have advocated the fungold origin
Of grape disorders, have proved their
point BY incontestible evidence. 1t is
equally true Of the root-insect idea.
Here are the insects, and there are the
rotten roots IN nyriads as the conse-
quence, and every child knows vine
cannot do wei when half its roots are
destroyed. What is the simple editor
TO do, who has no theory to advocate,
but whose business it is to direct the
Judgment of the reader according to
all the facts in handi He can only say
that no one thing causes disease, at
least there are many things which will
cause disease, sometimes perhaps exist
ing together, so that one depends upon
the other, at other times each acting
independently, and as some of our
friends expressively say, on its own
hook.
But Independently Of fungus and
root-parasites, it seems clear that the
little secret conditions of season-the
exact elements of which no fellow has
yet found out-have their own distinct
field of labor. Look at the old varie-
ties which have almost gone out Of
some good catalogues, and which many
have thought "gone mp" and see how
well they have done this season. The
antiquated Catawba, which at one time
stood at the head Of the grape lists,
and then fell to the foot, has this sea-
son almost equaled its best days, in the
few old fogy gardens where an attach
ment to the good things of the past
permitted a few plants 10 survive.
Looking at these facts, we say at once
that season has to do with success; and
perhaps feel some contempt for all
other suggestions.

SCHBSCK's Mandrake PILLS will be found
to possess those qualities necessary to the total
eradication of all bilious attacks, prompt to
start the secretions of the liver, and give a
healthy tone to the entire system. Indeed, it is
no ordinary discovery in medical science to have
invented remedy for these stubborn com
plants, which develop all the results produced
by heretofore free use of calomel, a mineral
justly dreaded by mankind, and acknowledged
TO be destructive in the extreme to the human
system. That the properties of certain veseta-
bles comprise all the virtues of calOmel without
its injurious tendencies, is now an admitted
fact, rendered indisputable by scientific re-
searches; and those who use the Mandrake Pills
will be fully satisfied that the best medicines
are those provided by nature in the common
herbs and roots of the fields.
These Pills open the bowels and correct Al
bilious arrangements without salvation or any
of the injurious effects of ealomel or other poi
sons. The secretion of bile is promoted by these
Pills, as viii be seen by the altered color of the
stools, and disappearing of the sallow complex
ion and cleansing of the tongue.
Ample directions for use accompany each box
of Pills.

CHINCH BUGS POIsONISG CATTLE.

The chinch bug has appeared in a
new Iole. He is poisoning horses and
cattle to an alarming extent, especially
the latter There is scarcely stalk of
green or dry corn standing in Illinois
at the present time, which does not
contain more or less of these insects on
it, partially secreted between the lower
part of the leaf, where 1t envelopes the
stalk, and also between the inner and
outer husks of the ear. In some cases
there are few only, but IN some 9TH
ers the stalk and ear being stripped,
ara black and foul with them. When
horses or cattle are confined princi-
pally to green corn fodder of this kind,
they are exceedingly apt to fall off in
flesh, become very costive, and In some
cases die outright. The sickness fol-
lowing poisoning by this bug, resem-
bles IN many respects the first attack
of Texas cattle fever. The remedies
usually adopted are mild cathartics and
a change of green pastures-second
and third growth of clover bringing
the patient around IN the shortest time.
The above is from the pen of Prof.
johnson, of the Illinois Agricultural
College, in letter to the Country Gen
Heman. Farmers in Middle Tennessee
have seen a plenty of these nauseous
bugs not to appreciate their injury to
forage of any kind. Nh. johnson thinks
that cultiyating hemp may drive them
off farm. And burning all trash is
important.
