When Dr. Vinvent, who is to lecture in Boy," formerly lived in Plainfield, N. J., he had crowded houses every time he lectured in his own town. The following expresses the appreciation of Wheeling people of this lecture, and is from the Augsburg Ieachea' (Lutheran) ''On Thanksgiving evening the citizens of Wheeling enjoyed the chaste, sen- sible and beautiful lecture of Rev. Dr. John H. Vincent on That Boy.' AS general thing lectures not appreciated in Wheel ing, and but few men can secure large audience. Dr. Vincent is one of the few , He had crowded house-even to the aisles and an audience which appreciated every truth which fell from his lips. We want him to come again.

Carrie Swain as "Cad the Tomboy'' will delight the frequenters of the New Haven Opera House to morrow and Saturday even- ings with Saturday matinee. It is most popular play, and crowded houses are as- sured. The Taunton Gazette says: "A
 large audience filled Music Hall last night to see Carrie Swain in Cad Every seat was sold, while some went away unable to gain
 admittance. All were pleased, and Miss Swain was repeatedly called before the cur tain. She is as lively as Lotta, and has more physical strength to carry her through. The plot of the play is good, the situations ex- that all goes of without friction. Miss Swain is good singer and dancer, and keeps up the interest throughout" The sale of seats here promises to be large, there being a general desire to see the little lady again.

 of the deceased lying on the bed.
 The face was downward and buried deep in
 the pillows. The bed clothes covered the
 body, which wore nightgown. All appear
 ances showed that death had taken place sev-
 eral hours before, and that it resulted from
 apoplexy. The deceased was a native of
 Ireland and had studied for the Catholic
 priesthood, but was compelled to discontinue
 owing to defective eyesight He had recent
 ly been engaged in literary pursuits and was employed as book canvasser by J. J. Galla-
 gher.

Deceased was of singularly correct habits and was a strong advocate of Irish rights.

 became widely known His many friends in this city will regret his sudden and untimely death

We wish we could (and we hope to be

any general success. If any of the house

SALT FOR THE THROAT.-In these days
when diseases of the throat are so univers-
ally prevalent, and in so many cases fatal
remarks an exchange, we feel it our duty
to say a word in behalf of n most elfectual,
if not positive cure for sore throat. For
many years past, indeed we may say dur
ing the whole Of a life of more than forty
years, we have been subject to dry, hack
ing cough, which is not only distressing to
ourselves, but to our friends and those
with whom we are brought into business
contact. Last fall we were induced to try
what virtue there is in common salt. We
commenced by using it three times day
morning, noon and night. We dissolved
a large tablespoonful of pure table salt in
about half small tumbler full Of water.
With this we gargled the throat most
thoroughly just before meal time. The
result has been that during the entire
winter we were not only free from coughs
and colds, but the dry hacking cough has
entirely disappeared. We attribute these
satisfactory results solely to the use of salt
gargle, and most cordially recommend a
trial of it to those who are subject to dis
ease of the throat. Many persons who
have never tried the salt garglo have the
impression that it is unpleasant, but after
a few days use no person who loves nice
clean mouth and tirst-rate sharpener Of
the appetite, will abandon it.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS FOR MARCH, Now
we can walk out in the meadows and for
ests and gather moses, lichens and fungi,
wherewith TO adorn our sitting rooms.
We can look for the sweet buds of the
Mayflower, which, if transplanted into our
living rooms, by putting the whole sod OF
leaves and buds into a soup plate filled
with water, will burst forth in all their
odorous, waXen beauty, and delight us
with their freshness.
Take an old waiter, guiltles of enamel
or polished varpish. and with its aid pre-
pare wild woods garden which will
charm your senses. Seek for the greenest
moses; the bright sealing wax MOSES. the
gray and white, and sage green lichens,
with their curiously sloped cups. Cover
the whole surface of the water with these
parti-colored MOSES, and in the interstces
plant the tiny leaves and rootlets of the
gold thread, the liver shaped leaves of the
hepatica, or liverwort, the deep blood-red,
radish shaped roots of the blood-root, and
masses of Mayflowers covered with their
buds. Sprinkle the waiter thoroughly with
warm water, and place in dark but
warm spot for two or three days; then set
1t upon little table near the window, and
watch each tiny leaf unfold, each bud and
blossom shoot forth until crowned with the
perfect flower.

here is much written and said about
hired hello, lis r,or quality aud unreliable
ity on one hand, and the hardness of mas
tets, the poor pay and the inferior position
their help is compelled to occupy Oh the
o.hcr.
There are fools and scoundrels in the
world, but fortunately they arc not all in
any one class If society. There is the
man who wants to hire cheap help" He
will find no houble in doing so; and will
get ] 'st what he hires, cheap in every
sense of the word, except in the sense of
being worth more than il costs. They are
cheap in soi!-resPect; they are either
!awning lick-spittles who would turn on
ti!eir employers when any opportunity
offers, who cannot be trusted out of sight,
who have no care or thought for their
employers interests, or staggering, in
'olent and unnecessarily ready in resent
ing fancied sights, because they have not
enough seIf-respect to occupy a subordinate
position without feeling it necessary TO
assert themselves"
Then in employers: there are some Just
re mean and " low-lived as any hired
mon &c have described (and you will
commonly find the two classes in compa-
NY, who will hire cheap" and use their
utmost endeavors to get more out of the
man than they pay for, who keep their
help poorly, and have so little self-respect
rs to feel 1t necessary 10 make use of their
position as employers to emphasize thoir
superiority.
Now this is fair statement of the pres.
ent condition of the case, and probably
always will be till poor humanity is made
over on more perfect model. But there
are sensible and honorable men who want
good help, and are willing to pay for it;
who respect themselves and the men who
work for them; and while they direct
their business, rs is their manifest RIGHT
and duty, do SO in Il way which is rot open
to any just objection. Such employers
viii generally have men who will know
when they arc well used, who know their
duties as well as their rights, and are us
anxious to DO the one rs to maintain the
otl!cr, and such a conviction will make
both the other classes before described
wonder how men can command such
wages, and how such employers arc so
lucky in always getting such good help.
