The New YORK POLICE AND

World publishes a table showing
the amount of property recovered
from the thieves in that city since
1850. The value of the stolen
property consisting chiefly of bonds,
jewelry and dry goods, amounts to
S63S934, and the value of the
property recovered by the police to
$2l ,59l. Goods to the value of
more than 100000 have therefore
been successfully divided by the
thieves, which is a reflection on the

WEIGHT OF BRAIN.-It has been
mentioned that ce-Prcsident Will
sons brain weighed 40! ounces,
which is rather above the average
weight, that being, in this country.
probably about Al or As ounces
Daniel Wcbster's brain has been
mentioned in a newspaper para
graph, published some years ago,
as having been found TO weigh SO
ounces; apparently all error, as
Appleton's Cyclopedia Ga very ac-
curatc work gives the weight of
Websters and Napoleons brains
as IAN ounce or two Less than the
French surgeon Dupuytren' switch
weighed So ounces. Cuvier, the
great French naturalist, seems to
have had the heaviest brain of any
famous man it weighed "between
50 and 60 ounces according to
Appleton :. and 60! ounces accord
ing to the news PAPER paragraph
above referred to. But what shall
be thought of the avoirdupois test
of intellectual greatness when the
fact appears that the brain of a
London cartman was found to
weigh more than Cuyier 's-for that
ras fact. Perhaps, il the brain
determines intellectual power, it is
the quality, ami its union to the
right temeramcnt which indicate
superiority.

DAILY AND WEEKLY GLOBE.
vERMONT's LARGEST AND BEST
NEWSPAPER.

The new year, commemorating the compile
ton OF the first century OF our independence
and witnessing the election OF a president and,
for the first time in our history, an entire ma
tional house OF representatives, will be one OF
splendid possibilities both TO journalism and
the country,
THE GLOBE Will avail itself Of the former, by
giving the news, late, prompt, fresh and full I;
by impartial comments on the news OF the
hour by candid, honest discussio of the Is
sues of the day; by full reports Of local occur
rences, and correspondence both local and
general by agricultural readings, market re-
ports, and by selections both grave and gay.
In a word, the endeavor will be to make THE
GLOBE a live newspaper, indispensable TO the
farmer and business man, to the politician and
student, to the office, counting room and the
family circle.
That the country may realize the possibilities
seemingly In store for 1t, we shall on our part,
as in times past, advocate the principles and
policy OF the republican party, as we under
stand them, and, to that end we shall labor TO
make 1t better and purer by combating It's
errors and exposing the wrong.doers In It's
ranks. We shalt favor and strive for a real ad.
ministrative reform, q speedy return to specie
payments, an honest maintenance of the ma
lions pighted faith, purer and better politics,
a faithful and economical administration OF the
government, municipal, state and national. and
shall support only honest, capable men for
office.
AS an earnest OF the future, we can only point
to our course In the past and assure our pat
r0ns that hereafter as heretofore, we shall en-
deavor to make THE GLOBE better and better,
and more and more worthy of support with
each succeeding month. What THE GLOBE
has been during the less than three years OF It's
existence is well known, that 1t has been fully
appreciated its generous support amply attests.
AS medium OF advertising THE GLOBE is I'M
surpassed in Vermont. The combined daily
and weekly circulation exceeds that of any other
daily and weekly newspaper in Vermont the
circulation of the dailyis equal to that Of any
other daily in Vermont the circulation of THE
WEEKLY GLOBE is much larger than the combined
circulation Of all the other weekly newspapers in
Rutland county and is more than one-half
larger than that OF any other weekly journal In
western Vermont. Advertisers make note OF
this of the further fact that 1t is the largest
journal in the state.

HONEST OPINION.

HONEST OPINION.
Mr.. ii. r. STEVENS
DEAR SIR--Thls is to show that my son was
taken sick In January, 1864, with scroiua,
which came out In large sores and ulcers on
his leg and hip. His leg was swelled more
than twice It's natural size. He had several
two from Boston and three from Charlestown-
without getting bit better. He WAS obliged
TO lie wherever he was placed, for he had no
use OF his limbs whatever. When he had given
up all hopes OF his living we were told TO try
Vegetine, the great blood remedy; and he had
taken 1t but short time before we could see a
great change. The sores run so bad that we
had TO change the cloths four or five times
day. still, he was getting better; for he
could move his limbs and help himself a little.
he was soon able 70 sit up In bed. and, by con-
slant use OF Vege'ine, 1t has cured him. He
has lame leg, which he VIII probably have for
life: but we all honestly believe, II we had
used Vegetine before we had bothered with
those doctors, IL would have saved The use OF
his leg, and restored IL to natural health.
hope all those troubled with scrofua VIII read
this testimony OF me and my son, who Is now
well and able TO speak for himself.

Reception of the American Rife
Team.

NEW YORK, Aug. %.
A reception was given the American
rifle team to-day. They were received
and welcomed at the Mayors Office.
Col. Gildersleeve replied in behalf Of the
team, expressing sincere thanks for him
self and comrades for the honor done them.
He hoped that the Mayor and the friends
who had so kindly rendered them the re-
ception would accept their sincere thanks.
They had gone away with some friends
and had returned to find many. The place
he was in should inspire him to give thanks
in fitting terms, but inspiration failed him.
He spoke of the warmth of the teams re-
ception in Ireland, and said that the title
of American citizenship had been pass
port everywhere abroad. At the close of
the proceedings in the Mayors office, the
military and civic procession was formed
in accordance with the programme pre-
viously published, and marched up Broad
way and over the prescribed route to the
Army and Navy Club, where banquet
was given them. The team was escorted
by the Twelfth, Twenty and Sixty
ninth regiments. The progress up Broad
was an Enthusiastic one, notwithstanding
drizzling rain, many sp ,ctators crowded
the sidewalks to honor the return of the
victors. Several of the buildings along the
line of march were gaily decorated with
nationals colors, and at the approach of
the procession enthusiastic cheers continued
until it had passed.

The North Carolina Constitutional
Convention.

RALEIGH, N. u, Aug. ~.
The constitutional convention which will
assemble September 6, consists of 100
members. OF those elected fitty-nine are
democrats, -fifty-eight republi-
cans, certain, and three are independents.
The three independents were elected in OPP
position to regular democrats. The death
of William A. Graham reduces the number
of democrats to fifty-eight, making them
equal with the republicans, and leaving
the power of organizing the convention
with the three independents. One of the
independents gave written pledge to the
republicans of his district that he would
act with that patty in cffecting an organi-
zation. No reliance is now placed on his
pledge, and it is generally conceded that
he will cast his vote with the democrats.
Another of the independents is put down
as certain to act with the republicans,
while the third man, Dir. Ransom, of
Tyrrel, is really independent, and stands
uncommitted to either party. He is re-
garded as gentlemen Of the strictest in.
tegrity and beyond the reach of corrupt
influences. he is said to be somewhat i'm
pulsive, and to sometimes act from pas
sion rather than conviction, but he is above
being influenced by commercial considera-
tons. The Republicans have reason to
believe Ransom will act with them in or
ganizing the convention.
