original engravings, with descriptions
of labor-saving and housekeeping con-
trivances, of plants, fruits, flowers, an
finals, ETC., including many large and
pleasing as well as instructive, pictures
for Young and old. The constant, sys-
tematic exposures of humbugs and
the swindling schemes by the Agricul-
turist are of great value to every one,
and will save to most persons many
times its cost. Altogether, 1t is one OF
the most valuable, as we'll as cheapest

The returns of last Tuesdays cleo

Mr.. Kilburn b. Walker, manager of
the Howard Opera House at Burlington,
having been severely criticised for al
lowing tickets 20 entertainments there

that Burlington people ought to be

terest of the trade of the place; also,
that except for the aid of st. Adams,
Montpelier and other places, where
tickets are sold and trains chartered,

not pay very well. If the people of
Burlington desire to have monopoly
of seats in the opera house, the infer
ence is that they should buy up the
whole house at fair prices for the whole
season and then fence in the town. Mr..
Walker intimates, in closing, that he is
getting rather sick of gratuitous advice
how to manage his business, and while
he denies that he has speculated in
tickets, he declares that he shall run the
house in Mr.. Towards interest and
that of the patrons of entertainments,

TThe new telegraph company whose
lines have been recently put up in this

of at distant and out-of-the-way rail-
road stations. III order 10 retain a de-

do with the notes obtained by pruning
