An appeal in behalf of the sufferers
from "The grasshopper plague " is made
by James Wick of Rochester, the world
renowned florist, in his Guide for 1875.
He offers to receive and forward appro-
priations in sums great or small, and of
fers to subscribe himself the sum of FIVE
HUNDRED DOLLARS to the fund. He
says Thousands of good, industrious
people, with the laudable desire to make
homes for themselves and families, have
taken up land in the West. Removal,
the purchase of implements and little
stock, and the expense of living until a
crop is secured, usually exhausts the re-
sources of these persons. They expect
to endure privations for time, but with
ordinary success, few years of trial and
endurance usually place them in COM
Portable circumstances Unfortunately
the past two years swarms of grasshop-
pers have swept away at once the crops
and hopes of these deserving people,
while we have dread enough and to
spare" Food is wanted to feed the hun
cry families until crops can be grown.
Early in the spring seeds of all kinds
viii be needed, for everything that can
sustain life will be consumed. We will
be glad to appropriate to this purpose
any money that may be sent us for this
truly God-like work, also, adding five
hundred dollars to the fund.

Nor SO Much OF JOKE AFTER ALL
Two young ladies and two young gem
tleman of Ulster county, N. Y, know
what it is to marry in haste and repent
at leisure. They didn't intend to get
married at all, but at largely attended
ball where all the young folks were gath
cred together, it was proposed to have a
mock marriage. and these two couples
consented to be the victims. A sedate
looking gentleman performed the cere-
mony, and it afterward came out that he
was veritable J. P. Now there is anx.
iety. One of the young ladies cried all
day the day after the ball, and doesn't
enjoy the situation at all, being engaged
to another fellow.

VIcK's FLORAL GUIDE. The first
number of this beautiful Guide for the
culture of plants, which is now publish
ed quarterly, is even finer than any of
its predecessors, and with each number
arises the wonder as to what Wick can
do next, as it was conceded that he had
eclipsed everything of the kind in this
country long ago. Each number of the
Guide becomes invaluable in instruction
and in the experience of others. The
present number has very fine colored
Autograph of double petunia," the
like of which it would be luxury in
deed to possess. 1t also contains an ex-
tensive catalogue of seeds, plants. bulbs,
&c. See advertisement.

Tragedy in New Hampshire.
A SHOCKING MURDER.

A most horrible murder WAS commit
ed at Piermont, N. H., on Friday of last
week. AT about 10 o'clock A. NJ, Mrs.
Alma Emerson, wife of John 0. Emer-
son of Piermont, was seated at the stove
with her sewing. Her husband was at
the barn doing his chores, but hearing
the report Of a gun he started for the
house and beheld his wife sitting just as
he had left her except that her head had
been severed from the body and blown
entirely to pieces, covering the further
side of the room with flesh, blood and
brains. Part of the skull went through
a pane Of glass, and with such force as
only to break hole the size of the piece
sent through. A gun lay upon the floor
by her side, but her position showed that
she could not have used it, she holding
her needle as if about to take another
stitch in her work, her spool and scissors
remaining in her lap.
1t is not known that any one was about
the premises except man by the name
of Sawyer, over 90 years of age, who
came there from Lowell. He~has been
arrested and the community are waiting
developments with much anxiety The
victim was young woman about twenty
three years of age, and had been mar
ried about three months She had
worked in Lowell, Mass, for few years
past. Her husband is nearly crazy.

fifty to sixty passengers, all social and

The streets are wide, running at right
angles, with many fine parks nicely set

Our village was startled last Friday
morning by the report that a man had been
found dead upon Ball mountain. Three
men from Nouhteld, Mass, had been en-
gagged to lake some logs down West river
TO Turner's Falls, and while working on
Thursday they became very wet. When
night came they started over the mountain
for the village but, being strangers, they
did not lake the best course. Tue noun
tain side is very steep and rugged, aud be.
ing iucommoded aud chilled by their cold.
wet garments, they had hard task before
them. The oldest of the party became ex-
hausted and could 90 no farther, while the
two others made their way with difficulty
to the village, arriving al their boarding
house amer eleven O'Clock. They Inform
ed one person that they had left their com.
panion upon the mountsin, aud then the
two men retired. No special effort was
made 10 arouse the sleeping villagers. so
the poor old man, cold and wet aud weary.
was left alone, exposed upon the bleak
mountain. When morning came the man
was found dead near the spot whore he had
been left. When found, appearances indi-
Gated that he had been dead but short
time. Upon information, some Of the town
