The Rutland Herald advises q.
friends of John P. Phair to quit sell; fue

public sentiment is in favor of his qua a~aV

A correspondent of the st. Allan,
Messenger in England, visited Prinno
Albert's model farm, but could soe
nothing remarkable about it save tbot
it was finely stocked with sheen a"S
cows. Adjoining this was the deer,
yard, where he saw in groups, near and
distant, tCo thousand deer, grazing!
On the Grand Union Hotel bulletin
board at Saratoga, yesterday, was pos.
ed the following: A strike is reportaJ
of the brakeman on the AdirondacI
Railroad that he has the General Sn,
perintendent and General Ticket Agent
under barrel and is sitting on it.
The Boston Advertiser puts it in tlis
way: The principle of free and pros
porous business is that the capitalists
has a right to decide for himself what
wages he can pay for labor, and each
laborer has a right to determine for
himself whether he will work for flat
price. The principle the strikers are
endeavOring to establish is, that the
workmen may compel whatever cam
talist he pleases to employ him and to
pay him his own price.
The assessed valuation of Pittsburg
is $172,000,000, and its population i
100000. The city will have to submit
to a levy of 50 on each 800 of taxable
property, to pay for the five millions of
property destroyed by the rioters. This
is equivalent to fine of S35.l5 laid
upon every man, woman and child in
the city. Pittsburg now wishes she had
dealt with the mob as it deserved when
the destruction of property first began.
A very generous act was done by Mr.
E. B. Haskell, editor of the Boston
Herald, before he left for Europe. His
fine house in Auburndale he left open
in charge of a relative. He then gave
permission to the head of charitable
institution to send five poor children,
with their mothers, to spend week, at
the expiration of which time another
lot may enjoy the same privilege. Mr..
Haskell also provides the living for
these people during the season.
LNCI oOuN hHO"S Uudb a. llOD Is
coarse, fierce and INSCRIPTIONS wild
beast, for the time being, and as such
must be dealt with. But how are We
to characterize without doing wild
beasts injustice) the mob at Pittsburg
which actually carried coffin to the
house of Gen. Pearson and told MIS-
Pearson that they intended to kill her
husband and put him into it -? She was
there with her children, her mother and
her sister, and no protection. No Won
der her hair grew white in a single
Adams Messenger.
The Newbury S. c. Herald knows a
widow ''whose name and deeds" it says,
"should be printed in letters of gold.
This lady lost her husband during the
war, and was left in Strengthened cir
cumstances. Did she sit down and
grieve at her fate? By no means. She
has raised four children beside fine
crops, and to-day she has much of last
years cotton and -four on hand, is free
from debt, and is able to pay cash down
for what she wants." We should say
a widow who raises four children after
her husbands death, was decidedly
thrifty, saying nothing about other
