REPAIRS.

We would call tho attention of
purchasers to the fact that we keep
an immense stock of repair-parts on
hand at convenient points in the
country, so that in case of breakage,
which will occur sometime with the
best machines, the farmer can get
the broken part duplicated near
home, without being subjected to tho
yexations and expensive delays
caused by having to send to the
shops hundreds of miles away for
the broken piece.
This is point of great Importance,
and one that will be highly appreci-
ated by the farmer who has harvest
hands waiting at u great expense
while his machine is repairing.

SHOCKING DISASTER OFF STATEN
ISLAND.
The Yacht Mohawk Struck by q
squall and Capsized.
ALI. ON BOARD REPORTED LOST.
The Sailing Master Accused Of Inca.
pacity-Threats of LyDching.

Stapleton, Staten Island, July 20. The yacht
Mohawk was struck by squall off the Stapletor
club house, at 30 this afternoon and tut ned bot
tom up. All hands were drowned. Up to
O'Clock no one was found. Commodore Garner
and wife are among the party.
LATER.
1t appears that Commodore Garner, his wife and
a number of ladies and gentlemen, made prepare.
tons for cruise down the Bay, the weather in
the morning looking fine. SAIL was made ready
| and everything made taut for sea going purposes
About o'clock, large heavy clouds made theii
appearance, and it soon became so threatening
that the master of the Countess Duferin stripped
his vessel of all sail, even taking down the avn
ings. At half past O'clock all being in readi-
ness the centre-board OF the Mohawk was drawn
up and her anchor almost tipped, when heavy
squall struck her, causing her TO capsize.
In few seconds, however, she rig hted, but be-
fore anything could be done the squall struck her
completely, causing her to go over completely
and the boats being fast on the davis those on
board were helpless, and eventually were COM
PEELED to jump overheard.
Among those lost were Mr.. and Mrs. Garner,
Miss Adele Hunter, daughter of Desbrosses Hun
ter, CT Hunters Point.
The whole affair did not last over ten minutes.
On passing the Mohawk IN boats they distinctly
observed several people in the cabin, looking
through the windows and crying for help which
it was impossible to render them. Three steam
tugs, steam yacht and quite member Of small
boats went promptly to the rescue, but the acct
dent occurred SO quickly and Unexpectedly that
nothing could e done.
Commodore Garner was the millionaire paint
manufacturer, on the corner of w orth and Hudson
streets, in this city.
The yacht has been lowed to the beach where
the bodies of the commodore and his wife can be
seen locked in each Others arms. AT last advices,
owing to certain distractions, the bodies cannot
be reached
Ii is stated that sailing master RaWlns was on
board a tug at the time of the accident. lie is
accused Of incapacity and threats Of lynching are
so loud against him at Staten Island to night that
ne was kept under guard.

Disgraceful Riot in
Saco.

Bidleford, July %. The riot in Saco last n light
was more serious than first reported. The fight
which took place at the depot in Saco was be-
tween a large excursion patty from Lowell IL
cars full of drunken rowdlcs, and some Ioughs
from this city and Saco. The Lowell roughs
pitched into every body using knives aud reyolv-
els freely. The few policeman at hand were pow
ercss to quell the disturbance. Pistol shots were
fired indiscrimi pately into the crowd. and shots
even aimed at houses near by. Several women
tainted and there was intense excitement. The
car windows were smashed in and other damage
done. Marshall Sands narrowly escaped being
shot, and Lowell policeman who was drunk and
assaulted officer Wyers of Saco, was knocked
down by the latter, with slab. 1t was the blood
lest fight ever seen here, "aud the mourners GO
about the streets"

Peruvian syrup vs.. Alcoholic TonIcs.

1t has been desideratum with the medical pro-
fession to procure preparation of iron less OBJ
jectionable than any Of those now in use which
often produce unfavorable effects upon the system,
especially when prepared with alcoholic fluids.
In many cases of debility and convalescence
from disease, where tonic is indicated, wine,
brandy, porter, &C., have been recommended; but
these Of very doubtful efficacy, to say the least
Alcohol is never digested, is ranked among the
diftusible stimuli, and is incapable of atfording
nutrition. 1t creates generally unnatural ex-
element and arrangement of the circulation, irr-
tatng the whole system by preventing the blood
from losing its carbon. Again, how difficult it is
to obtain an article approaching to purity, almost
all the winess bandies, porters, &C., being more or
less adulterated.
Such being the with regard to the spiritu-
Gus preparations of iron, and the alcoholic drinks,
of which any one can satisfy himself by investi-
eating the subject, opportunity is now presented
in the Peruvian Syrup, for the tial Of an article
in general practice, which has the very strongest
recomme ndations from medical and scientific men
of the highest character-a preparation which so
happily combines the protoxide of iron with the
other constituent parts that the effects incident to
the use of iron salts are entirely obviated.
For all cases in which iron any tonic is needed
this preparation is confidently believed to be far
superior any other. 1t seems to purify the very
fountain of health. july -teod&wlw

The sea serpent has again appeared off these
shores. Last Saturday afternoon two young lads,
sons of well known merchants of this city, were
fishing near Blue Point, when all at once they
were terrified by the sight of an enormous cow
like head-as it appeared to them-whch raised
itself above the water for some twenty feet, while
from the part under the water there was undu-
aory movement for long di lance, like that
III ,dc by a snake. The boys pulled Justify for the
shore as the creature Owed, and they afterwards
saw it reappear about in the spot where their boat
had been. A few afternoons afterwards party
were out in the yacht Alarm, and when Off Long
Island-outside-the sailing master observed what
he supposed a heap of sea weed. As the
Yacht approached it, all at once, with q huge
''swish" the water for long distance was thrown
into commoton by very long creature, evident
ly of the snake species, that went through the
water at very rapid rate. This time the cres-

Tomorrow our people are to realize all that has
drawn the crowds to the bill-boards for several
DAYS past, for the centennial Barnum," with his
colossal academy Of object teaching, sixty-cage
menageric, caravan of mammoths, marvellous
museum, quadruple circus, and glorious, old
fashioned, Hail Columbia, Yankee Doodle, Cen
tcnnial Fourth of July Jubilee, is coming, and
will spread his canvas on the grounds of the trot
ting park, no other place nearer the city proper
affording sufficient room. The idea that the whole
of p. T. Barnum's great show will not be here, is
error for which gossip is alone responsible for
circulating. The show never divides and the
whole of it, from hippopotamus to Admiral Dot,
is always exhibited wherever it is advertised to
show. One of the greatest curiosities in the show
is Captain George Costentenus who is indeed
marvel of tattooing. From head to foot on every
inch of his body, including even his scalp and the
soles of his feet he is mass Of the most artistic
and deliberately colored tatooing, 10 letters signs
and figures of quadrupeds, birds, fishes and rep
tiles. Captain Costentenus is tall, dark complex
toned, of superb physique, and about forty-fi
years of age. A special passenger train will run
from Gardiner to Augusta on Saturday for the &C.
commodation of those wishing to attend the show.
One fare will be charged for the round trip. Train
will leave Gardiner at $50 p NJ, and Hallowell
at 5.48 Passengers can return on the Pullman
train, leaving Augusta at ll.0S Z. NJ.
