from letter written to the German Reform
Messenger at Chambersburgh, Penn:
A BENEFACTREss.
Just open the door for her. and Mrs.
Winslow will prove the American Florence
Nightingale of the Nursery. OF this we
are so sure, that we will teach our 'Susy"
to say "a blessing on Mrs. Winslow" for
helping her to survive and escape the grip
ing, colicking, and teething siege. Mrs.
Winslow's Soothing Syrup relieves the
child from pain, and cures dysentery and
diarrhoca. 1t softens the gums, reduces
inflammation, cures wind collie, and carries
the infant safely through the teething
period. 1t performs precisely what it pro-
tesses to perform, every part of it-nothing
less. We have never seen Mrs. Winslow -
know her only through the preparation of
her Soothing Syrup for Children Teeth

her, as she is, physical saviour to the in

better roads. | know a number of
men who say that if the roads are
not worked better by the overseers
they intend to invoke the penalties
of the law; The heavy rains We
have had this year have washed
deep gullies in the roads, and where
hundreds of loads of stone were
thrown, the earth has been re-
moved, leaving a bed of rough
roCks to travel over. Our roads
are shame AMI disgrace to the

This COW is the queen of Mr..
Laird's whole herd and is one of the
most beautiful animals / ever saw.
She has a bull yearlng calf, Red
Bud Second, by Red Duke; he is
large and fine; he is deep red; he
will be registered in the next vol
ume of the herd-b book. The two
NTH cows mentioned above, each
has a yearlIng heifer and bull suck
ling. The two calves from the first
NTH are roam. Mr.. Laird calls tue
heifer NTH of Woodvale and the
bull calf Duke of Woodvale. The
heiier from NTH Second is solid
red. She will be registered as Sec
ond NTH OF Woodvale and the 9th =
er Second Duke of Woodvale. All
of these are the produce of Red
Duke, SIG.
Mr.. Laird has some ten or twelve
mich cows, all of them pure bred,
but my space will not permit men
ton of them in detail. These COWS
have been selected because of their
superior milking qualities. This
indeed has been steadily kept in
view by Mr.. Laird all the time, and
he has been rewarded abundantly.
He has lot of II head of young
stock from one to two years old,
WHICH he designs for the shambles.
They are all pure blood and are very
fine. Among them are six heIfers
that are real beauties, and it is a
real misfortune that such animals
should 60 to the butchers when
such are so scarce in the county.
They are by Red Duke and show
that he is an extra fine breeder.
1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Laird
will find sale for these fine heifers,
and thus save them for the improv-
ment of the stock of The country.
Probably if he would use q little
printers ink and let the people
know that he has these fine ami
mails he could save them from the
fate now intended for them.
Mr. Laird has flock of about 30
Cotswold ewes that he has selected
with great care, They will COM
pare fayorably with any flock 1 have
yet seen. They are all of the purest
breeding and have been headed by
bucks fIom imported sires; com
mencing with a buck, "England's
Glory" which was imported from
Canada by Capt. I homas Gibson,
of Maury county. This animal was
originally imported from England
and was probably the largest sheep
that was ever in the United States.
He weighed 410 pounds on his ar
rival at Woodlawn, Capt. Gibson s
farm. The other bucks which have
been used by Mr.. Laird were pur-
chased by him from Messrs. New
ton McConathy and Alexander Nc
Clintock, of Kentucky, and were
sired by imported bucks, and he is
now about to order a buck from
Kentucky to head his flock this
season.
Mr.. Laird has not been less
successful in breeding the shifty
Berkshires, and has now fine herd
at Woodvale. They are bred from
the pQrest blood 10 be obtained in
this country. Mr.. Laird can prob
ably show a record OF lot OF Berk-
shire porkers which he killed in the
wintel'o of 1878 that has never been
equaled. There were AZ head of
them, none exceeding 10 months
old, that averaged $50 pounds.

pitality of Mr.. and Mrs. Laird, nor

scenes to other fields, but l assure

Gen. Grant had on his recent trip

His confidential advisers. how

full TO those who stood by him out
of friendship and on principles,
but could not conceal his thorough
disgust for Conkling, Logan, and
others who had so recklessly mis-
calculated the position and Overes

AS TO the pending canvass,
Grant is said to have cvaded ex-
pressing any opinion at lrst, but
when allusion was made to the mil
itary record OF Gen. Hancock all
the latent enthusiasm Of his nat1re
seemed TO be aroused, and he Tree

upon it as something OF a compli-

selected at Cincinnati, apparently
feeling that the preferces Of the
