Mrs. GRAY writes us that she has
been compelled to postpone her visit
to the South, owing to a severe cold
contracted on her last visit here, and
that if cur citizens give her sufficient
encouragement she will come here
and form class of boys and girls,
selected from our schools, to whom
she will give instructions in Elocu-
ton free of charge, her pupils to
participate in public entertainment
under her management, to which a
small admission fee will be charged,
which will be her only remuneration
She gave an entertainment on this
plan in Greenfield, week before last,
which was complete success. She
proposes to be here on Thursday or
Friday, when she would be glad to
meet and consult with all who feel
interested in her plan. She may be
seen at the Kramer House.

One Help for Hard Times,

To increase the product of ones
labor, or business, and then to make
the best use of what is obtained, will
certainly be helpful in these hard
times, or in any other. The hints
and suggestions OF half a dozen in
telligent, practical men and women,
who devote themselves to studying
and observation, on just this topic.
must certainly be of great utility to
every one. We shall, therefore, do
our readers favor by directing their
attention to that most valuable pract
ical journal, the american AgricuL
turist, which is just now entering
upon its 36th year. 1t is packed full
of useful information, that cannot
fail to be very useful to every family,
and to every man, whatever his call
ing, and whether residing in City,
Village, or Country. Each Volume
gives from 600 to 700 fine original
engravings, that are both pleasing
and instructive-to Housekeepers
and Children, to Farmers, Mechanics,
Merchants, Professional Men, indeed
to all classes. It's House plans and
improvements, with full particulars
of cost, etc, with engravings, its fear
less exposure of Humbugs and
quackery, indeed its whole makeup
and its thoroughly reliable character,
render it worthy of a place in every
household, and we strongly advise
every one to have it. An immense
circulation enables the Publishers to
supply it at the low cost of 81 60 a
year, postpaid, or four copies for
So 40. Take our advice and send
now for volume Sc, to the Publish
ers, Orange Judd Company, 245
Broadway, New York City. See our
club list for terms of the Agricultur
ist in connection with the News.

Says the Boston Post: "People
who advertise are smarter than those
who don't; better looking, too, nine
in ten. This is natural, if not logi-
cal. Advertising is an indication of
intelligence, and intelligence is one
of the leading elements of good looks.
At all events the world believes in
those who advertise, and places its
dollars in their pockets. Such are
live people; and in these live days
nobody wants anything to do with
any but your live men and women.
Our advice to everybody-except in
matrimony-is to advertise. 1t is
sure to return largely, increase your
reputation as a business man, make
hosts of friends, and adds to the
number of sHrewd and sensible peo
pie in the world, of which there has
never yet been an overstock.
