The Evening Post has the follow
ing story as told by Thomas Hicks,
the artist. The scene was Trenton
Falls, n. Z, summer or two ago.
Mr.. Hicks, who had been on trout
ing expedition, was approaching the
inn with a single large trout, which
he intended to sketch, when a gentle
man who had just arrived with party
of ladies, noting his rough fsherman's
costume, took him for a servant OF
the house and called out: Here, my
man, do you know all about the
falls?" Eyes, sir" replied the artist:
Come, now, show us the way there,
Certainly" The artist led the way
to the falls and on the way was so en-
tertaining that the tourist insisted on
his going over the whole route with
him. At the close Of the journey he
handed the artist dollar and asked
his name. Tom" was the reply.
"Well, Tom, you are the most intelli-
gent guide | ever met, and ought to
be in better business. If you ever
come to New York call ON me and |
will try to help you" 'Thank you,
sir, y said the artist, who had keenly
enjoyed the situation, and had accept
ed the dollar rather than to mortify
the guest by an explanation. Next
day the guest told the landlord that
he wanted to secure Toms" services
another day. AS the landlord replied
that no Tom" was in his service the
truth soon came out, but Mr.. Hicks
keeps the dollar as a souvenir Of his
afternoons work as a guide.

MR.. H. r. STEvENS:-
Dear SiT,-Having suffered from a breaking
out of Cd7lKerOuS Sores for more than five years,
caused by accident of q fractured bone,
which fracture ran into running sore. and
have used every thing l could think of, and
nothing helped me until had taken six bot
ties of your valuable medicine, which Mr.
Miller, The apothecary, recommended very
highly. The sixth bottle cured me, and all
can say is, that owe my health to your Yalu-
able Vegetine.
Your most obedient servant,
ALBERT Won ROEDER.
at is unnecessary for me to enumerate the
diseases for which the VEGETINE should be
used. I know OF disease which will not
admit of it's use with good results. Almost
innumerable complaints are caused by poison
Gus secretions in the blood, which can be
entirely expelled from the system by the use
of the VEGETINE. When the blood is perfectly
cleansed, the disease rapidly yields; all pains
cease; healthy action is promptly restored, and
the patient is cured"

As the subject Of railroad in Broadway is being

it should be done by the city and be in charge Of the
Department of Public Works. Then any railroad COM
by paying say 81 day for each car, and two tracks
would be sufficient for any number OF cars. But If
the street given up to any private corporation the
roadway will be ruined for all other kinds Of vchi-
clcs. several companies may wish to the street
and each will lay its own track and then there will
be certainly four and possibly six tracks. Look

TO Thompson street. railroad in Broadway would
be a bonanza undoubtedly, and venture to assert
that il any company gets the right to lay its tracks

the road should be given to the Broadway and

terest in connection with the railroads. another
occasion the Commodore told witness that the Erie
Railway, as it was conducted by Daniel Drew was

up; that the management ought to be changed.
and his friends had made up their minds to do it;
the Commodore wanted witness to bring the matter
into the courts test case, and described the stu
alton in general way.

material whether Miss Crawford were there or not.
II he were to undertake to hear testimony in rebuff
tai of the offers made, he said the would not be
finished for the next fifty years he would not re-
ceve any evidence tending to show the asity of the
testimony Of any witness unless 1t were proven that
the witness knew it was false when he gave it.

q. Did you receive any sum of money from your
sister? A. How much!
Q. Well. say $1,000? A. No. SIR never.
Q. Directly or indirectly? A. No. sir; not one

Mr.. William TurnbuIl took the stand and was ex-
smned by Mr.. Clinton.

neius had been to me and said that his health was
very much better that he had got quite strong and
that he capable Of taking almost any position
his father would give him. his father replied. "Turn-
bull. you don't know Cornell; he can't take If
