LETTER FROM NEW YORK..
NEW YORK, Sept. IL, 1876.
Special Correspondence.

4
France is overwhelming us with cour
tesies this year. A few weeks ago |
mentioned the colossal statue of Liberty
which that Republic is buslly parparing
to erect in our harbor. This week
have to chronicle the unwilling of fine
bronze statue of Lafayette, also the gift
of that distinguished patriots fatherland
to this, his step-mother country, if l
may be allowed the expression. So qui-
city was this enterprise carried through
that until the announcements on the day
preceding the ceremonies presume that
very few people other than those doing
business in the immediate vicinity knew
that this addition to our monumental or
naments was contemplated. The statue
stands at the lower or southern end of
Union Square, midway between the Lin
coin and Washington monuments and
directly opposite the entrance to Broad
way.
The great and growing interest which
the last year has developed in riAe-shOot
ing is receiving still further impetus
: from the international contest to tax,
place at CreedmOor during the coming
ten days, vigorous preparations for whicl
9 are now being made. Like the gran,
! regatta at Philadelphia which notices
d last week, and in which America obtain
/ ed a glorious victory, the CreedmoC
u match is the outgrowth of the Centenn
= al Exposition, and its honors will /
y contested by the four corners of ii
n globe-or would be if we could lure a
n Acknowledged team from the land of ric
z tea and pig tails to balance the repr
w. sentation of 0ceanica.
C. As it is, we shall have an excitiI
and brilliant match in which the Anne
y; leans in order to hold the laurels won
le' the Creedmoor and Dollymount contes
of last year, will have to defend the
70. against the picked rihemen of Scotlau
~, ireland, Canada and Australia. In I
'y practice shooting thus far our men ha
M. made rather shaky averages, and it
~. almost too much to hope that Uncle s.
liza will again carry off the honors agai
rry the whole world.

VERMONT STATE FAIR.

The State Fair was the most success
full, perhaps, in the history Of the socie-
ty. The stock entries were very fine,
that Of Jerseys very large, while short

pecially butter and cheese Fruits and
vegetables were in great prOfusion. Farm
utensils were we'll represented, particular
" articles form the better class of man
ufacturers and dealers. We have seen
better floral halls, but the articles were
shown to the best advantage. Machin-
cry Hall and the miscellaneous section
were packed with choice exhibits The
exhibits of rare exoties from the garden
of Governor Smith were very beautiful.
The attendance Wednesday was large,
over 1900 tickets being sold at the
gate At o'clock procession was
formed at the Weldon House, when the
speaker, accompanied by George A. Mer-
rill, President. and Henry Clark. Secre-
tary, were escorted to the grounds by

nished the music for the fair. At 2
o'clock President Merrill introduced ex-

CAPTURE OF Boss TwEED.-The start
ling intelligence was received by cable
from Madrid, on Saturday, Sept 8, that
the inevitable William Nj. Tweed, the
noted convict, had been captured in the
Spanish port of Vigo, and had been safe
ly confined in fortress in that city,
awaiting delivery to the American au-
thorities.
At first the intelligence gained small
credit but subsequent advices leave no
room to doubt its truth. The presence
and whereabouts of Tweed In Cuba seem
to have been known by the American
consul in Havana, and having secured
the cooperation of the Governor-Gener-
al, steps we're being taken for his arrest.
This coming to the ears Of Tweed, he
privately took sailing vessel for Spain.
But there, through the action of Minis
ter Cushing, the royal cooperation had
beenisecured, and before Tweed coulC
make landing at vigo. he had faller
into the hands of the authorities.
! The question of the arrest being salts
; factOrily settled, it now remains to Sc
cure his delivery to the American au
thOrities. Having no extradition treat
: with Spain, this can only be accomplish
ed through the friendly cooperation c
d the American and Spanish government
While numerous and delicate question
4 will doubtless arise. still we cannC
l. doubt that eventually this notoriou
e criminal will come back to reap the r
&c ward of his ill-doing.

Last Sunday morning the cry of fire
was heard on our streets, and citizens
started in every direction to ascertain its
whereabouts. It was soon discovered to
be the warehouses on the railroad track,
west of Mill street, which had caught,
and in short time hundred or more
persons were on the ground to see the
fire: The buildings were very dry, and
the dcvouring element was not long in
laying them in ashes. The fire was first
discovered in the warehouse of Aten s.
Muncy, and was not long in communica-
ting to that Of Bassett. Hunting & Co.
In short time A. D. Browns large house
was all ablazc. 1t was with the utmost diff

thousand cases within the last ten years.
The DR.. adopts the eclectic Or new school
practice which denies the right through

to prescribe drugs noncssential to organic
life, us mercury, arsenic, antimony, lead,
and zinc, and insists from observation and
experience and science, upon the use al
most exclusively Of organic drugs, pre-
scribing no minerals in organic state; but
iron sodium, potassium and few others.
In addition to the discoveries which his
long experience has enabled him to make,
ia presenting drugs, he has also perfected
a system Of hygiene, gymnastics and is
thoroughly verscd in the Swedish move

tiles, as curvature of the spine, etc.
