W. NJ. Thayer & Son, the propretors of the

office with one of Morris & Ireland's burglar and
fire proof safes. 1t has all the recent improve

As piece of furniture it is highly ornamental
but its for proprietors and guests are its chief
recommendations With its thrice Doted inside
door, and the combination lock on the outside, it
would seem to defy any amateur talent in the pro-

HOUSEHOLD NECESSITY. If our readers
knew of the real merits of Renne's Magic Oil, we
are sure they would make place TO- it on their
sideboard or 81 elf at once. For burns, scalds,
sprains, colds, inhamatory complaints. and in fact
nearly all the aches, pains and ills that the human
frame is heir to, there is medicine sold that ex-
GELS, if it equals this popular pain reliever. VIM.
Renne is no quack. He is one of the first citizens
of Pittsfeld, Mass and his reputation for integri-
ty and perfect upright dealings in everything, is
one that he would never risk on an unworthy ar
tcle. We advise our readers to try Renne's
Magic Oil, and if it does not prove equal to our
sertion, hold us responsible.

Stabbing AHroy.


Officer Gardner informs us that stabbir airay
occurred last evening, at about o'clock; at the
farm Of Mr.. George Pulcn, abou! two miles out
of the city, near Coombs Mills. 1t seems that two
young men were employed by Mr.. Puen for the
haying season, one named Adley, residing near
the State House. aged about 81 years and the 9TH
er Frank Hart aged %, hailing from Bangor
Hart, for some reason, had just been paid off and
discharged by Mr.. Pullen, when some words arose
between the two young men, which terminated in
hand.to-hand struggle. Adley succeeded in
throwing his adversary, and while holding him on
the ground, received a stab in the back with
knife which Hart had procured, the blade entering
near the spine and cutting severe wound. The
men were separated and Adley was brought to the
city and had his wound dressed by Or. Brickett
The wound, though large enough to admit fin
ger, is no; considered necessarily dangerous
Marshal Harrington, accompanied by Officer Gar
diner Immediately proceeded to the scene of the
aiflay and arrested Hart, who had attempted to
escape and was prevented by the neighbors, and
brought him in and lodged him in the jail, where
he awaits an audience before the Municipal Court
which will undoubtedly be afforded him at the
earliest opportunity.
