from the amount of tickets already sold we

Messrs. John A. Lowell, & Co. sold MIR.
Gaugengigl's "Adsgio," representing monk
PLAYING upon a violoncello, to q Pawtucket
gentleman for $500
Mr.. Preston Powers has on exhibition at
Messrs. Bigelow & Kennard's Boston, very
beautiful statue entitled thu "Singing Peas
ant Girl" The Herald says: at has peau-
tful delicate face, refined 10 expression AMI
elevated in character. The head is finely set
on the shoulders and has a carriage of lofty
grace, not at all suggestive of peasant origin.
Even the handkerchief, exquisitely draped on
the head, the simple short waist turned away
from the stately throat, and the suggestion Of
a laced bodice about the bust, fail to give In
dication of any person except one well bora
and well bred. II is certainly beautiful piece
of sculpture, but we do not find in it the free
dom, vigor. even the rude picturesquenesss, o.
a peasapt woman. This woman is too sensi
tive too refined, too lofty, for association with
common life"

Railroad Notes.

There is good prospect of the formation of
narrow gauge company in the near future for
the building of such a line from Portsmouth
TO Cape Neddick. 1t is hoped that eventually
it will extend as far as the Boston & Maine
Railroad at Coles Corner, in Wells.
A special to the Boston Sunday Heral d says:
SENEGAL, president of the North Shore rail-
Way, has launched great financial scheme on
the Paris bourse to raise SIS, 800 GOO for the
following purposes: First, co pay the local
government here $s,5OO,oOO, the balance pur-
chase money of the Montreal & Quebec Rail-
road; second, 81, 100000 to extend the line los
miles, to Tadousac, ON the lower st. Lawrence,
where winter port will be established; third,
100000 for a branch line; fourth, $3.50 600 for
additional rolling Stock fifth, $500 900 for con-
nections with the Grand Trunk and Inter-
colonial railways; lastly, $1,000,oO0 to buy out
the Richelieu Navigation Company's boats.
For this loan per cent. will be paid, with an
annual sinking fund to extinguish the debt in
80 years.
The Herald says all this pertinacity on the
part of Eastern stockholders to get the Boston
q Maine to lease their road, is to enable those
heavily loaded with stock to unload success

The Cole Gambling Suit.

The Cole smbiIng suit against d. X. Ap'
plebury, in Boston, will be disposed of by the
Massachusetts Supreme Court. # appeared
in evidence that both of the defendants were
seen to take part in The game, and that there
was no collision on the part OF the plaintiff
and the loser in the bringing of the presents lit
The defence claim that there was eolusioD
that Mr.. Henry G. Cole had no such amount Of
money to loss as he alleges; and the main
point relied upon is that the plaintiff has nc
legal right to group the lcsings of any one day
iu gross sum and SO allsga it in his dscara-
tion but as each specific loss is an offence IN
der the law, the plaintiff is Obliged to set ou
each such loss, and falling to do so, cannot
maintain his action.

the Alps and the lovely Swiss valleys among
which the third lecture is spent The fourth

aud the closing journey is spent in visits to
msny delightful spots In foreign lands.
Beautiful illustrations crowd every lecture.

Mr.. Il. II. Carpenter:
Dear Sir,-My daughter had previous to the
year 1881 been great sufferer from Rose or
Hay fever for four years. and every intelligent
physician knows how difficult it is to treat. 1t
would come on about the 10th Of june aud last
her until about January following.
On April, 1881, bought one Of your Pino-
Palmine mattresses aud pillows for her and
watched with interest the result. She has not
had but one slight attack since, and that was
from cold taken when away from home on q
vacation, some eight days before she returned.
She returned home, and after using the Pine
and pillow one week she was all over 1t, and
for the last year she has not had it at all. My
wife ard myself used the Pino for the last ff-
teen (15) months and think it the sweetest and
best bed we ever used. Also nine Of my pa
tients have each had one for more than year.
Some used for Rheumatism, General Debility,
Asthma, Nervous Debility aud Nervous Pros
tration, sc. Not one but has been benefited,
and all say they would not part with them for
twice their value. Yours, &c,
