HIS Jusr DEsERrs. Our readers will remember
the case Of II. Bailey, who attempted to swindle
the Lane Manufacturing Company here two weeks
since, and was arrested by the Marshal of Man
chester N H., and taken there TO answer for some
OF his previous misdeeds. lie was then arraigned
on the charge OF swindling S C. Forsaith & Co.
of that city, by obtaining machinery of them, and
paying them with forged check Oh Duncan, sher-
man Co., of New York, just as he attempted to
do here. He plead not guilty at first, but subse-
quently retacted this plea, and was sentenced to
four years imprisonment in the state prison lie
makes several confessions Of but little importance
One Of these is that he set fire to a barn In Sioux
city, January, 1871 also, in March of the same
year, barn and lumber yard in the same place
January 10, 1871 he set fire to the house of Qua
zaguar Dourse, Sioux city. lie says he received
$500 from parties for burning the above two build
ings, A reward OF 81 900 was offered by Mayor
Hedges, Of Sioux city, for his apprehension, and
another man had been imprisoned for the crime
but made his escape, having served two years
bailey had numerous aliases but he says that his
right name Is A. l.. Barrand,

BRooKFiELD-last Monday evening, through
the generosity ofthe Good Templars OF Brookield,
the Rev. Isaac McAnn gave us one Of the best and
most effective temperance addresses we ever lis
tened to. He presented as the principal causes Of
intempeance, our social qualities, love Of stimu-
lus, and love Of gain His Illustrations, drawn
from the real life Of the dunkard and his family,
evidently touched the hearts Of his audience lie
also endeayored to impress upon the temperance
workers the necessity OF earnestness and perse-
yennce, If they would effect anything in the cause
Of temperance. Although the full and active
Lodge Of Good Templars in this place speaks
well for the temperate habits Of the people-stil
We feel that lecture Of this kind will not fail Of
good results

drive their stock quite distance to drink They
