SHALL WE REVIVE LAST CENTuRy's FASH
IONS PIN connection with the year we are
going to celebrate, writer In the Golden Age
makes the original suggestion that the nation
adopt, for 1875, the costumes In vogue a hun
dred years ago. Kpee-breeches, silk stock
ings, shoes with broad buckles, blue coats
with brass buttons, buff waistcoats, lace and
ruflcs for shirt fronts, and cooked hats for
the men lowered brocades OF rainbow hues,
or golden or silver, rich lace farthingales,
sumptuous jewel-fastened stomachers, high
combs and powdered hair for women,
these garbs bestow an elegance upon a social
company that no modern dress can rival, es-
eueur for the American gentleman. The
Martha Washington parties Of the past winter
have shown that. Perhaps first step toward
the adoption of this plan is the fashionable
DOMINIC of the Lady Washington cap which
in New York, "Jennie Juneo says, has be
come the almost universal accompaniment Of
the eakfastwrapper or pretty morning dress
The absurd part Of II is that the cap is moi
confined to married ladies'. Young girls, who
in this country are rarely educated to the per.
ception of nice shades of difference In the
proprieties of dress, consider themselves just
as much entitled to wear it as their mammas,
and sit down to the piano to practice with the
ruffied muslin and broad band Of ribbon en-
circling their silly heads, without thought
Of its incongruity.

WEATHER REPORT.

PHILHARMONIC SocIETy.--The concert by
members of the Trenton Philharmonic Society,
at Holcombe Hall, on last Thursday evening,
was fine musical entertainment. The in
strumental performance was of superior ex-
cellence, and Prof. Randall has reason to be
proud of conducting an orchestra exhibiting
such high musical ability, much of which is
owing, doubtless to his skilful training
Winkler's Brass Band, which formed part
of the organization, played through our
streets on Thursday and delighted our people
with some choice music. This band is excel
led as military band by but few.

Potato BUGS STILL ON THE RAMPAGE
The potato-bug is now receiving consider
able attention. Experimenting is becoming
general poisons, solutions and mixtures of
all kinds are being hurled at the intruders--
which appear to be increasing in numbers not
withstanding the opposition. We are inform
ed by DIR. Foulke, of New Hope, that he tried
Ave poisonous medical preparations on bug,
at his office, the other day. The experiments
proved failure-the bug withstood them all
and showed no signs of discomposure. An
other and stronger force was next applied
in the shape of o stmasher with good re-
suits. Farmers inform Us, however, that af-
ter numerous experiments, Paris green is con-
coded tue best remedy yet discovered by them
which we trust they will apply to the utter
discontinue of the bugs. The field for ex-
perimenting is free, the war is general, and
none are debarred from participating.

The tooth of mastodon was exhumed on
June 9th, by George Devore, while opening a
spring in marsh, on the farm of the late
Jacob Morehouse, at Millburn. 1t weighs Al
pounds, being molar, and is in good state
of preservation, although the bone of the jaw
attached is very much decayed. Other teeth
and some bones were found at the same time,
but the bones generally crumble upon being
touched. The remains were only few feet
under the surface.

CENTENNIAL MEETINe.--The Centennial

energy displayed by the committee, Messrs.
H. B. Eastburn, Geo. A. Cook, Eastburn
Reeder, T. t. Eastburn. J. s, Williams, and
others, in making it success is worthy of
commentator. Probably thousand people
gathered in the afternoon, many of them from
Lambertville, Stockton, etc. At3 clock, III.

after music by Seddon's Orchestra, he made n

and referring to the memories of the day they
were celebrating. Miss Laura Swartzlander,

Holmes new ballad, Grandmother's Story
of Bunker Hill," with considerable elocution-
airy ability. DR.. Franklin Taylor, of the West
Chester State Normal School, was introduced
as the orator Of the occasion, who gave solid,
sensible talk on themes bearing OH the day
celebrated, and on the purposes of the cele-
bration. After the close of the address, sup
per was announced and numbers partook.--

GB- The crows are said to be great destroy
ers of potato bugs A writer in the German
town Telegraph says The value of crows
may be estimated from an incident that hap
pened on a Maryland farm last Spring. A
number of men who were sent to hoe field
of potatoes reported after the work was fin
ished that they saw [" millions Of potato bugs, I"
and it was supposed the growing crop was
surely destroyed. For several days after, how
ever, large numbers of crows were seen to
alight in the field, and on second close EXAM
ination the men who had hoed the potatoes
detected but twenty bugs, the remainder hav-
ing been eaten by the crows. These birds are
fond of any kind of insect, and are in many
ways valuable to the farmer"

GB- The Hillsborough Insurance Company,
although only local institution, is as of much
importance as the Government at Washington
at least one would think SO from the interest
taken each year in the election of its Directors
and Secretary. This election takes place the
first Wednesday in June, and there is always
a strife over some of the candidates. This
year the contest was mainly over the Secretary,
although one or two of the old Directors were
in danger of being ousted. For weeks pre-
vious to the election the counties of Somerset
and Hunterdon, in which most of the policy
holders are located, were thoroughly canvassed
by the friends of the respective candidates.
and on Wednesday they poured into the little
village of Neshanic, where the election was
held, from all directions and from great dis.
tances, many of them having driven distance
of twenty miles. The contest was a warm
one and much feeling was manifested Over
seven hundred votes were polled, out of which
Mr.. M w. Scully, the old Secretary, received
a majority of seventeen over Mr.. Henry Lane,
and was declared elected. The members of
the company from Hunterdon thought that

to run in one of their number, but this failed
by one vote only Mr.. D. J. Somers, of Bloom

A. T. Huff, of Neshanic, was elected Director
in place of the late Richard Hall. The other
members of the Board are the same as last
year.

reelected ]. V. D. Hoagland, of Milestone,

es of the term in Miss Knowles school, on
Delaware Avenue, in this city, occurred on
last Friday evening, on which occasion So
ciable . was held. The school room was

thoroughly taught.
Previous to the commencement of the ex-
ercses the visitors examined number of
specimens of oil painting and crayon drawing

artistic and none were entirely without merit.
The next term of this school will begin on

pended publication. # the career
Of this Journal was not brilliant, It
was at least noisy, and the paper
was conducted in a manner we'll
calculated to attract attention to
the locality to which it was faith
fully devoted. It's efforts may a.
times have been misdirected, but It
was always sincere, and meant
everything for the best. If news

bic, and move a town thirty miles
from It's present location, Bozeman
would no doubt have been the
river metropolis Of Montana next
year. The thought seems absurd,
but Mr.. Bogert believed il it as
surely as he ever believed in any OF
the many enterprises which he ad-
vocated for the welfare Of the Boze-
man people. We are very sorry

should have lived at least another
year to proclaim the truth or falsity
Of Capt. Marsh's assertions regard
