rHE pIAs1sr,s DILEMMA.

A young pianist was giving concerts
through Germany for her support, and to
enhance her reputation she advertised her.
self as a pupil Of Liszt. In q little town in
the interior OF Germany, where she had an
q concert, she was COMPOUNDED
the, day before the concert was to take
place by seeing in the list Of arrivals, and
Mt the very hotel where the concert was to
be given, f" Mr.. Liszt."' vt1al Irim8sa
Here WINS a dilemma, and what to d. she
knew not. Her fraud would be discovered,
she would be exposed, she could never give
another concert, h was ruined. Trem-
blingly she sought the presence Of the
great maestro, determined to make a clean
breast of it, and cast herself on his mercy.
Coming into his room with downcast eyes,
she knelt at the old mans feet and with
many tears told her story-how she had
been left On orphan, and poor, with only
her one gift of music with which to sup
port herself, the difficulties she had en-
countered, until the fraudulent use Of his
great name had filed her rooms and her
purse.
"Wel1, we'll" said the great man, gently
raising her up, "let us see, my child, what
we can do. Perhaps it is not SO bad as you
thought. There is a piano; let me hear
one of the pieces you intend to play to-
morrow" Making comments and sugges-
tions as she played, and when she had
finished, he added, Now, my child, 1
have given you a lesson, you are a pupil Of
Liszt.n Before she could find words to
express her gratitude, Liszt asked, /" Are
your programmes printed ?" NO, SIR
was the answer, mot yet" "Then say
that you will be assisted by your master,
and that the last piece of the programme
will be played by the able Liszt." That
concert, it may be readily believed, was a
great success.-TNe Interior. il y

A Paducah, Kentucky, paper 'sgoes for ="
the detestable practice of attaching and
tying up steamboats, on the most TRIVIA
charges. 1t says:
Four steamers were detained at this port
yesterday by the Deputy United States
Marshal for trifing sums alleged to be due
roustabouts as wages. In most cases the
officers of the boats would rather submit TO
be swindled by INSCRIPTIONS employees than
to be detained. OF course there is no re-
course left the law officers but to ecforce
the law as it appears on the books. How
ever, the law is all wrong and too rigid on
steamboatmen, and should be done away
with and something more just and equita-
BILE supplied in its place. Railroads can
owe thousands of dollars and run their
trains right along as if nothing had hap
pened but let an unhappy steam boatman
be sued by some trifing, good for nothing
r~oustabout and he must fork over ut
once or submit to all kinds of v~exation and
trouble.

AN OBITUARY FOR A LIVE GIRL.


A New York newspaper correspondent
who has reached down East early in the
season writes /: Let us speak a good word
for the Maine girl. She is a splendid
housewife she has beautiful arms, and the
time to see them is when she is making
bread. Why hasn't Longfellow written Of
C The Baking Of the Bread along with
the building of a ship? Or has he? The
Maine girl is fieshy as a general thing.
She has a rosy, round face !; she hns hazel
eyes, swept by long. silky lashes; she has
brains as sure and true, if not surer and
truer, than Boston brains. Her lips are
ripe and full. She sings from sunrise until
she seeks her downy pillow at night. She
is merry and chirp as a sparrow; when she
laughs she throws back her head. She
looks beautiful. 1t is a grand sight to sec
q Maine girl laugh. 1t is thrilling, natural,
and unaffected. 1t is splendid it is ma
ture-poor, fallen nature risen. Where is
the artist to paint the Maine girl laughing?
to save that face on canvas 7 to duplicate
that mouth in oil colors? If your phono-
graph has nothing but a Maine girls laugh
to throw back upon you, you are rich in
melody. There is a sweet simplicity about
the girl. We are happy at introducing her
to any strangers, and hope we may be re-
membered, either by cake or invitation,
when the marriage bells are ringing.

THE COUNTY FAIR.

Our readers will notice the advertise
ment of the Orleans fair and we trust
will make preparation, those who can, to
attend it and contribute to its success.
1t is probable known that the manage
ment of the fair is now in the hands of
an Agricultural Society, composed of the
best agricultural men in the county, and
that they are endeayoring to make this
and coming fairs worthy the county.
The Fair Ground company furnish
grounds. buildings and all the conven-
fences of the fair ground, and guarantee
the payments of all premiums awarded.
A list of premiums has been made,
larger than the Agricultural Society be-
lieved could be paid out of the proceeds
of the fair, and the list has been made
up with great care. The programme
has been SO arranged as to make the
attractions of each day such as to invite
patronage. No speaker is yet announc-
ed, but the managers expect that Senator
Edmunds will deliver an address on the
second day of the fair. He has promised
to be here if his wife, who is now re-
covering from fever, is we'll enough
to permit him to be present. The third
day will be devoted to the horses, and
1t will be the endeavor of the manager
to have series of races that will be as
good as anything ever had on the ground
We would be glad to say word to all
who have either animals, product OF
handiwork that will help to make the
fair useful or attractive, and ask them
to bring them in. The fair should be made
useful, and it can be made so if all will
contribute to its success. No pains
will be spared on the part of the Society
to do their part toward making thi
fair one of the best ever held in tn,
county.

wages: If he is disposed to use the
money in buying provisions and grocer
les he can purchase l barrel of -four, l
bushel of cornmeal, 20 pounds of salt
pork, 20 pounds of sugar. 10 pounds of
salt fish, 10 pounds Of salmon, 10 pounds
of butter, 5 pounds of cheese, pounds
of rice. 10 pounds of cod fish. 10 pounds
of lard. 2 pounds each of tea, coffee,
soda, starch, soap, raisins; one pound
each of ginger, pimento, pepper, cinna-
mon; | gallon of kerosene oil, box of
salt, 10 dozen crackers, 4 dozen of eggs,
l gallon of molasses, bushels of pota-
toes, 2 gallons of vinegar, 4 cans of
preserved fruit, 2 bushels of apples, 10
pounds Of graham meal, 10 pounds of
oat meal,- this with about three
dollars to invest in things not enumerat-
ed above. If the the thirty dollars is
to be invested in clothing, it will pur-
chase an entire suit for the man, for his
boy of ten years, for his little girl,
and a complete outfit for his wife, SO
that the whole family of four can be
clad suitably to appear in any church
in town. But if it is desired to purchase
common "store" goods, thirty dollars
will bay wagon load, and fit out a
common family with such things as are
ordinarily needed for months. The
times are not very hard when this side
of the question is considered.

IMMENSE GRAIN MovEMENT.-The
Buffalo Commercial, of August 3Oth,
says: 1.-The receipts Of grain at this port
by lake, for the month closing to-day
are the largest on record for any August.
The totals reach the enormous aggregate
1929, 636 bushels, which is nearly two
million bushels in excess of any proceed
ing August. The popularity of the
month s business has been the breadth of
the movement. Usually in cases of
heavy shipments the bulk come from one
or two western ports. But this month
they have all been pushing forward
their golden stores. Toledo and Detroit
competing successfully at times with
Chicago and Milwaukee. The total re-
ccipts for the season promise to be enor-
nous. They have already reached A.
100000 bushels, and there are the three
of the best mouths of the fall to come.
The greatest gaius for tue mouth aT5 vb-
servable in the receipts Of wheat, which
stand at 5,274.000 bushels this year, to
! 1,534, 900 bushels in 1877. This is
partly accounted for by the large crop Of
fall wheat harvested. It is now begin
ming to move freely. The shipments by
canal have been correspondingly large.
For the season they reach 31,1I9,OOO
bushels, which is over eleven million
bushels in excess of last years move.

1876. The westward movement of mer.
chandise by canal and lake is also i'm

SUDDEN CHANGES.

The proprietors of Downs ELIXIR frequently hear
remarked those not in trade that cough medicines
do not sell much during the summer months This is
a mistaken idea. The sudden changes to which this
climate subject at all seasons of the year, renders 1t
necessary to always have some reliable cough remedy
at hand. Downs ELIXIR is sure cure for Coughs,
Colds and Whooping Cough. and all Lung Diseases,
when taken in season, and DOSE we have no doubt
has many times prevented consumption and death.
The best certificate that be given for any medicine
is daily accorded to Downs ELIXIR in the fact that it
has survived the storms and tempests of nearly half
century, and is to-day the most popular with those who
have known longest 1t has gained this great favor
with the public entirely on its own merits, having had
less advertising done for it IN the whole time than is
done for some medicines In a single year. For sale

ORLEANS COUNTY COURT.

The case of John Brown vs.. Harry
Cheney, one of the selectmen of the town
of Westmore, was an action of s'trespass
on the freehold for damages. Plea,
general issue. 1t appears that there
had been road through plaintiffs farm
from the main road to back lot for
sixteen years or more, and that plaintiff
had contested the right of the town to
keep this road open that he obtained
verdict in his favor in the September
term of the County Court of 1876, and
that the town took an appeal to the Su-
preme Court; that while this suit was
pending, the defendant in this case took
occasion in his official capacity to remove
certain fences which plaintiff had erected
to keep the public from travelling in this
road; that as often as defendant took
down the fences and opened the road,
plaintiff would put them up, until de-
PENDANT had taken them down nine times.
Afterwards, the Supreme Court affirmed
the judgment given by the County Court
in favor of plaintiff and ruled that the
town had not the right of way through
Browns land, making defendant liable
for trespass. The jury brought in
verdict for plaintiff of 1851 damages
and like sum of costs. Crane & AL
fred for plaintiff; VIM. w. Circuit for
defendant.
The case of Joseph Rothchilds VS.. J.
P. Fisher was an action in assumpsit for
false warranty of horse. Plea, general
issue. Jury brought in a verdict that
defendant recover his costs. VIM. w.
Circuit for plaintiff; L. H. Thompson and
w. w. Miles for defendant.
The case of Hunt VS.. Tillotson was an
action of trover for sleigh. Plaintiff
claimed that one George Baker took a
sleigh of one Hart of Wolcott on debt
of $40, with the understanding that
Hart should have week to redeem it.
While the sleigh was in possession of
Baker it was attached by one of Harris
creditors, but left in the care of Baker.
The time to redeem expired and Baker
sold the sleigh to Hunt. Tillotson, a
deputy sheriff in Wolcott, took the sleigh
on an execution and sold it at auction.
Defendant claimed that Baker did not
buy the sleigh of Hart absolutely, but
that Hart merely turned it out to him as
security, and accordingly he had right
to sell it as Harris property. The case
turned on the fact whether there was an
actual sale from Hart to Baker. The
jury found that there was and brought
in verdict the plaintiff recover $26.75
and costs. w. W. Miles and L. H.
Thompson for plaintiff; Parker and J.
G. Burke for defendant.
State VS.. Ruiter for stealing colt.
Ruiter plead guilty and was remanded
to await sentence.
