The late DR.. Bellows used to relate
with glee an incident which occurred to
him in his early days. At the close of
lecture in small town in New Hamp-
shire he had returned to the village
tavern, and was warming himself at the
village fire before retiring for the night,
when u farmer came in, and, introduce
ing himself, stated that he had attended
his lecture with great instruction and
delight; and in closing said: 81 have
got more than my moneys worth. Please
accept this, as l now want to pay you
up" at the same time presenting silver
dollar. Like sensible man, DR.. Bel
lows avoided any hurt to the feelings of
the generous-hearted visitor by accept
ing the gift.

Tact and Wit.

A Texan schoolmaster replied to an
insult from one of his scholars by wit
rather than by rod, expulsion from
school OF stormy menace. On entering
the school-house one morning he read
on the blackboard in large letters,
"Our teacher is L donkeyr' With phil
osophic composure, and without utter
ing word, he merely added to the
insulting inscription the word ''driver." :"
The misunderstanding scholars from that
time felt an increasing respect for their
teacher in his superiority of office as a
driver of donkeys.
Professor Hadley, of Yale, one day
found on his desk slip of paper with
"Jackass'' written on it. At the close
of the next recitation he stated that one
of the young gentlemen had ''left his
card" and invited the owner to call and
take il.

Deyouring an Account Book,

A firm of masons at Newburyport.
Mass, employed hod-carrier, whose
novel method of keeping account of his
time was brought to light by droll
circumstance. He went one evening to
his employers home with the sad intel
ligence that he had lost his account book.
He said the pigs had got in and eaten
it up.
''What sort of an account did you
keep" asked the employer.
81 had nail-keg, and when I worked
whole day put in potato, and when
half day half potato, and the pigs
ate 'em intirely."

In searching the title to a piece of ship
yard property in Marblehead, Mass,
recently, a queer deed was found In
which boundary line is described as
extending from Il pencil-mark on Il barn
to pencil-mark on school-house fence.
This description is almost as absurd as
the imaginary one once coniured up by
Rufus Choate to ridicule the other side

Treasurer Osgood, of the Maine State Agr-
cultural Society. attended the Kansas State
Fair at Topeka and made arrangements with
the AtrheSon. Topeka \ Santa Fe Railroad for
the transhipmcnt Of the exhibit of Kansas pro-
ducts 10 this State Six large cases filled with
Kansas grain, bects, apples, potatoes, water
melons and other products. some of them of
immense size, arrived from Kansas by express
tonight and Will be- exhibited in City Hall dur
ing the state Fair. This will add very much
to the interest of the fair. Special Despatch
TO Wing and Courier of Sept 18th.
This may be- in the interest of the Agrcu-
ture of .Nnue, for which the State society held
their Fair ut Lewiston. If such an exhibit BY
the Railroad COS of the west, will tend to
induce immigration from the west to Maine then
ii will benefit the State. If however it causes,
rs apparently is the wish and expectation of
the II. x. Co.. making the exhibit, immigration
from Maine to the west, it must necessarily be
dctriment to the cause of Agriculture in
Maine.
-\roostook county in our own State has lands
as productive as any in the west, and as profit
able. immigration is setting that way. The So
ciety offered Inducements to Aroostook to show
her produce, and She has done 50, but she must
not BE- expected at the start to compete with
rich II. r. Go. 1t may be good policy and a
benefit TO the State to have our people see the
crops produced by 4 corporation of the west as
an advertisement of their lands, in comparison
with the products of our Aroostook lands; but
if so ii would have been fair, perhaps, to give
notice to that effect
Immigration TO ArooStook will build up our
Railroad and our State. Immigration to the
west will certainly bring about the reverse. Is
it good policy TO encourage the latter. What
say you, Mr.. Editor: Let us hear also from
our Agricultural Press and writers. Let us
hear from Aroostook. If such exhibits are for
the good Of Maine, increase the premiums. If
not then let the managers of the State Fair ex-
hibit the products of Maine. DIRIGO.

State i air TO advertise Kansas lands. railroads.

such was the intent in this instance. There is
only one way in which such an exhibit could

be in taking special pains to procure a Maine
exhibit equally a good or better. And We
agree with the Bangor Commercial that in Jus

should have been exhibited besides these
"kansa~ products of immense size" few

4 private letter from a Maryander in Wash
ngton-a staunch Republican-says there are
indications that at the coming election, Mary
land may follow the glorious example of Maine
and free herself from the grasp of the Bourbon
Democracy which has kept her in the back
ground for the past fifteen years. Lest he be
thought over sangunc he gives few facts as
they really are; 1.-The Democracy of Baltimore
are really frightened. One year ago they had
1000 registered voters on the list in the city,
This year they can scarcely muster $1,000.
Thanks TO honest registration, they have not
been able to register the grave-yards cemete-
ries, and unnaturaized element, as heretofore,
and the same rule holds good in all the counties
of the State. Everything indicates that we Will
certainly carry two Congressional districts,
with good chance of two others.
