The greatest apparent desire of humanity IS to escape the effects of summer and espe- oially dog day weather, and of such as are able to gratify that desire Guilford has it's share, either as visitors at the old home stead, boarders at hotels or in private fani- lies, occupiers of summer cottages and camp ists. The favorite resort of the latter class is Sachen's Head, where mosquitoes are not numerous and the air is as pure and balmy as at any place along the coast, not excepting Newport, R. I. Our visitors hail from vari- ous parts of New England, the Middle States and the West. the latter being mostly those or the descendants of such as moved hence in years past, and return to visit old and fa- miliar locations and the friends that remain therein.

 If the divergence of route is decided upon as fatal defect, the company, it is stated will amend it to cure if possible the defect or else start anew again.

William J. Coughlin, of SomerviHe, Mass, says: In the fall of 1876 was taken with bleeding of the lungs followed by severe cough. lost my appetite and flesh, and was confined to my bed. In 1877 I was admitted to the hospital The doctors said had 6 hole in my lung as big as a half dollar. At one time a report went around that l was dead. Igave up hope. but friend told me of Dr. William Halls Balsam for the lungs. I got a bottle, when to my surprise com- menced to feel better, and to-day feel bet ter than for three years past.
 ''I.write this hoping every one afflicted with diseased lungs will take Dr. William Halls Balsam, and be convinced that Con- sumption can be cured. I can positively say it has done more good than all the other med icines have taken since my sickness"

Wave, lofty Films, your branches wavei Your streamers on the breezes dingi With tears your leaves no longer lave, For cheering sounds the breezes bring Then, on the winds your branchlefs throwi Your countless harps of myriad strings Awake in strains of grateful How, And join the song our country sings. From grateful hearts the song win rise To Him who guards from his high throne; To Him our thanks ascend the skies, For He 'sis mindful of His own" The nation bow'd in deepest grief Again revives and breathes more free, For hope awakas, and gives relief To mourning hearts, from sea to sea. Then wave, ye Elms your branches wave! Your streaners the breezes dingi With tears your leaves no longer lave, For peans of joy the nations sing. City of Films, July 30, 16Sa F. 4. B.
