Representative Hale Believes i'm n Bold
Fight for Ho.esi Money.
NEW YORK, Sept. 19-rhe Tribune reports
an interview with Hon. Eugene Hale. He
said that the Greenback craze in Maine was
largely aided by the hard times The farmers
also joined in the movement without waiting
to reflect on the result of its success. Com
munism also had large share in the canvass
The result only convinced him of the necessity
of making a bold and determined fight on the
hard money basis. The financial education of
the country has been greatly neglected the last
20 years. Mr.. Hale thought that the other
New England States were to large extent in
the same situation as Maine. One noticeable
feature in the movement was that it did not
last The strength of the Greenback element
in Maine this year was the greatest where it
had the least strength last year. and in three
counties where they polled the most votes last
yeas they met with the least success this year.

Van Amburgh's Show.

Here is what the st. Adams Messenger says Of
the great Van Amburgh menagerie and circus
which exhibits here on Saturday next: "In our
last evenings issue, we briefly mentioned the
grand entry and parade Of Van Amburgh's big
menagerie and circus, which drew crowds of
spectators, and the afternoon exhibition which
drew an immense audience and gave universal
satisfaction. We visited the show last evening,
and under the escort Of the genial and obliging
press agent, Mr. W. c. Boyd, obtained all the in
formation we required
"The canvass il immense, both for menagerie
and circus and including the boarding tents, sta
bles and side-shows made large sized canvass
village. The menagerie Is composed Of rare
beast and birds Of a superior quality and in an
excellent condition, and which substantiate the
statement Of the management respecting them.
Among them is the largest elephant we ever saw
thirteen years old, nine feet ten inches in
height, and weighs several thousand pounds;
hippopotamus lions, tigers leopards adax, zebra,
kangaroo, rhinoceros weighing 1900 pounds, a
cage of monkeys, rare birds and other novelties
1.-THE great attraction, however, was the circus
The audience was nearly as large as in the after
noon. All the acts advertised were performed to
the letter. After the usual grand entree, which
made brilliant spectacle, little Charlie Watson
performed some difficult but graceful contortion
feats. Then Fred Watson appeared in principal
equestrian act, which was especially fine. The
iron-jaw act by Madame Lotta made great sem
sation. In her jaw she lifted barrel Of water,
and held rope with her teeth which hosted her
form to the top Of the tent; and performed other
astonishing feats. The hurdle act by william
Ducrow-which was n fine exhibition of English
jockey riding surpassed anything Of the kind
ever attempted here, and received the enthusiastic
applause of the audience. The Langlois Brothers
performed some marvellous juggling feats, comical
and wonderful. principal riding act by Mile.
Clarnda was excellent; and hurdle act by the
boy wonder, Charles Watson, very fine The
cannon ball act by Hercules Gaffeney who handles
ifty-sx pound balls like marbles, was thrilling
feat of trained muscles. Sgnor Sebastian, the
world-renowned bareback rider performed mag
nifcent act which won immense applause. A
marvel of skill and patient training was shown in
the act with magic barrel and table by Harry
Lamkins. The performance Of the trick mules
also delighted the audience
"There were other acts of merit, which we
have not space to mention. Mr.. John Foster, the
clown, is a clever jester, and mis- witticisms are
quite original. The managers claim the ring
show to be superior, and this claim they made
good. 1t is, without exception, the best circus
that has exhibited here for three or four years
| and the Van Amburgh show may be sure of large
audiences every time it visits st. Adams, so long
as 1t maintains its present high standard of ex-
cellence"

HARDwIoK regret to announce the death
of Samuel K. Norris, Esq, which occurred on the
18th instant, from "Bright's disease" of the
kidneys. Mr.. Norris was one of the old, esteemed
residents OF the town, and quite as well known a.
any other among its agricultural and business
circles. His connection with the Methodist church
at this place has always been prominent he having
been steward. of the society over forty years,
and for most of this period leading and active
member OF the board. As worthy and true man
in all relations of life his loss will be greatly felt
outside the circle of his home and personal friends
His age was sixty-four. "A social picnic was
held in grove near Joseph Thomas, in the
calder brook" neighborhood, on Thursday OF
last week The attendance was quite large-esti-
mated at three hundred-and the occasion was
well enjoyed. Music by the band, speeches and
dinner mostly filled the programme Adams

strange that in state so well reputed for the in.
tegence of its people many or any should
be found anxious to hug that delusive phantom
Of rag baby" when every principle of hon
