POISONED.

Ann Reed, q colored woman in tho en-
ploy of Col..J. N. Brown, died on last
Sunday evening from the effects OF a dose
of strychnine taken by mistake for qui-
nine. In the afternoon she complained
ofsymptons of ohills, and stated that she
wished to go home and get some quinine,
which she had been taking to break them
no. She returned about dark and got an
apple to take with the medicine. She
went to the kitchen, and in few mo-
ments it was announced that she was
quite sick, soon after which she had vio-
lent conyulsions. Drs. Sharpe and Scud-
day were Immediately sent for, and ar
rived in time to give her some medicine,
but too late to save her life. She did not
live more than about half hour, and was
unconscious Qsthe cause other sickness,
but upon examining the bottle from
which she took the supposed quinine it
was found to be strychnine. Upon e1-
amining how the poison came in her pos
session it was found that it is most proba-
BILE 1t was left by some tenants, who had
lived in a house to which she moved q
year ago. She always kept the medi-
cines for her family, and must have put
the quinine given her for chills in the
bottle of strychnine, which resembled it
very closely. She had recently moved
again, and no doubt got the quinine and
strychnine stirred up together by NOV
ing, and thus lost her life by the first
dose taken from it. The bottle was an
old one, and she had possession Of it for
some time. 1t was undoubtedly case
of accidental poisoning, and should cause
every one to be very careful in keeping
poison or mixing medicines.

A MODEL CITY.-The following dis
patch from Richmond entities it to the
above appellation:
The movements against gambling in
this city, which has been in operation for
some time past, is being still vigorously
pushed, and within the past few days a
number of gamblers and others have
been indicted by the grand jury, and to-
day Joseph Graves, one of the sporting
fraternity, was tried in his absence on 3
charge Of dealing faro. He was found
guilty and sentenced to jail for six
months, and 800 fine. w. h. Fowle,
member of the Legislature from Alexan.
dria, plead guilty Of playing draw poker,
and was fined thirty dollars. George 8.
Stevens, Judge of the Nelson County
Court, was charged with playing poker,
and not answering when called, had
judgment entered against him in two
cases, with thirty dollars fine in each.
Eight or ten more indictments remain to
be tried. All the gambling houses in
Richmond have been closed some time,
and nearly all the sports have left the
CITY.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
The Career Of Andrew johnson.

This statesman and patriot has passed
away, but his deeds will live after him.
What commentary is his fame on the ad-
vantagcs of an American citizen? unlcttered
and unaided, relying upon himself, he ad-
vanced step by step from the lowest station
in life, to the highest office in the gift of the
American people. All this was accomplished
by answering integrity, dauntless courage,
and persevering research. By the exercise
of these principles, it is in the power of any
poor and friendlcss boy to obtain the same
grand result. The same success is attaina-
Bile in the commercial world as in the polit-
litical, as it is proven in the case of DE-.
TUFTS STANDARD PREPARATIONS. He, con-
scious of their value, labored patiently, and
to-day no medicine has taken so firm hold
on the public estimation as his Liver Pills.
They stand on the topmost round of the
healing ladder.

wAsH1NeroN's BIRTH sAY.

The 22nd of this month, Washington's
dirth day, was celebrated by the Broada-
way Creek Democratic Club on last Tues
day morning. Mr.. E. B. Murray deliv-
cred the address to the large assembly of
ladies and gentlemen, after which an
elegant and abundant basket dinner was
enjoyed by those present. Several addi-
tional names were obtained for the Club.
The Anderson Democratic Club cele-
brated the same occasion in the Court
House on Tuesday evening. The Ander-
son Brass Band furnished excellent music
for the evening, and the Court room was
well filed with ladies and gentlemen.
Messrs. Tribble and Brown entertained
their audience with fine rhetorical ora
tions, which traced the character Of
Washington, reviewed his example and
applied 1t to the present condition Of our
country. Their speeches were eloquent
and patriotic. During DR.. Browns
speech, Samuel Johnson, a notorious
colored politician, who is, by the grace OF
Governor Chamberlain, Jury Commits
sioner Of this County, feeling that he
could do as the Republicans did in the
last campaign, attempted to disturb the
meeting by loud amens and groans. Mr..
E. B. Murray called upon the police to
take charge Of him, and. stated ifthey did
not that there were others present who
would, for they wished 1t understood
that their meetings should not be dis
turbed by rowdies of any kind. john
son was taken out, and the meeting pro-
ceeded without further molestation.-
The speeches were loudly applauded,
and the evening was pleasant and in
teresting one. President Watt presided
o. or it with dignity, and opened and dis
missed it with appropriate speeches.

THE SEASON OF LEHr.

This fast, commemorative Of the fast Of
Christ for forty days upon the mountain,
is observed by the Roman Catholic and
English or Episcopal Churches. The
season embraces forty fast days, though
it extends over longer period, as Sun
days are not included. 1t begins this
year on the fret day of March, which is
Ash Wednesday, and ends on the eve Of
Easter Sunday, April l6. The regula-
tions for Lent in the Catholic Church are
es follows:
San Catholics who have completed
their twenty-first year must fast unless
iegitimately dispensed, taking but. one
meal daily, about noon, excepting Sun
days, which are not fast days. Flesh
meat and fish are not to be used at the
same meal. A collation. is allowed in the
evening, not to exceed the fourth part OF
an ordinary meal, at which it is permit
ted to use bread, butter, cheese, eggs, all
kinds of fruit, salads, vegetables and fish.
In the morning some warm liquid, as
tea, coffee or thin chocolate made with
water, and morsel of bread is allowed
by general usage. Necessity and custom
have authorized the use Of hogs lard in
stead or Dutter In preparing permlCCe0
food. The use Of flesh meat is allowed
by dispensation at all meals on Sunday,
and once a day on Monday, Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday, with the excep-
ton of Holy Thursday and the second
and last Saturdays Of Lent. Persons ex-
empted from fasting are as follows: Per-
sons under twenty-one years Of age, the
sick, nursing women, all who are obliged
to do hard labor, and all who through
weakness cannot fast without great pref
udice TO their health"
The season is also one OF fasting and
prayer, and the masses Of the Church are
very solemn and earnest. The services
of the English Church consist Of a series
of collects and prayers specially arranged
for the season, and the fasting regula-
tions as recommended are about the
same as in the Catholic Church.. though
it is left with the individual to adopt or
reject them at will. The Protestant and
Baptist Churches do not recognize the
observance of the season by any unusual
ceremonies.

A Lively Railway Meeting.

A very largely attended meeting Of
the stockholders of the Montpelier and
Wells River Railroad Company was held
in Village Hall, Montpelier, on Tuesday
The grand contest was for the control of
1900 shares of stock, held by the town
of Montpelier, the sale of which had
been made few years ago by a vote OF
the town to J. W. Brock, of Montpelier
while another sale was made under an
attachment for debt to A. Il. Sartwell,
of East Cambridge, Mass. A scene of
great confusion took place and a crowd
rushed upon the stage and struggle
for the possession of the records occur
red. Coats were torn, hair pulled, win
dows broken, the stage scenery and pic
lures pulled down, enveloping the com
batants, the seats and benches were bro
ken and many severe personal encoun-
ters ensued. Joel Foster, clerk of the
meeting, was chased around the room,
but finally escaped with the records,
The meeting finally adjourned amid the
widest excitement and confusion. The
Brock party afterwards met and elected
directors.

The most Remarkable Remedy ever dis

greater approval and success than Benson's
Capcine PLASTER. Why they are preferred to

Physicians and the general public who
acknowledge the great benefits derived from
the use OF the ordinary porous plaster, how

continuous wear TO effect q cure. Benson's
Cap inc Plaster overcomes this difficulty by
accomplishing in few hours, that which it
takes any other Plaster as many days
Although u recent discovery -Capcine

and IN each instance has been pronounced
