HousatOnic Valley Institute.

The Housatonic Valley institute at Cornwall, will be opened Monday, Sep tember 22, by s. T. Frost, A. M, (Yale, ] formerly principal of South Berkshire institute, and also of Amenia seminary.
 The health record of Cornwall is un- surpassed by any other place. It is broad and beautiful plain of 1000 feet elevation, but it's winter climate is tenn pered by encircling mountains. For more than half century it has been famous for its private schools. The principal, after twenty years of school life, knows no other place so desirable in health, access and influences for the education of his own sons.
 The school dwelling, formerly the Alger institute, regarded as residen co, is one of the finest in Litchfeld coun- ty, in site, grounds and furniture. It has twenty rooms for students, none higher than the second floor.
 In the school dwelling the character of home and the properties of the fam fly will be required, and quiet conduct and careful observance of social usage will be regarded as important as thor oughness in study.
 The principal will give twenty min utes each day to the reading of the dai ly papers, and to familiar talks on cur rent and standard literature.
 There will be courses of study witt reference to business life, and thor ough preparation for college.
 References can be made to those fit ted by the principal, who have attained the very highest honors at Yale, liar yard and other colleges.
 There will be six teachers for instruc tion in ancient languages, French and German, mathematics, elementary science, higher and common English and music, painting and drawing.

The Maine election occurred on Mon- day. The state has gone republican by large majority. Complete returns have not been received but compari- son of the returns with those of former years would indicate plurality of from 13,OOO to 1000.

 Hot isn't 1t? Is what they all say. One of our sturdiest grangers who belong to that class of men who are strong G. nough to chew plug tobacco and read the New York Sun, was heard to re- mark that it was hot enough to roast the Devil, and as no one seemed inclin- ed to dispute him we suppose that to be the prevailing opinion.

In the first place pair of horses and a lumber wagon, bundle of straw and 0 good natured driver; procure tin horns and some one to blow them, but the most essential point is to find half a dozen young ladies who can giggle once in five minutes for the entire trip; after being fitted out be sure to drive over the toughest road; blow your horns when passing houses, then giggle and yell and when you get home be sure and tell what a rough set the country people are and wonder why they are not more refined. x.Y.z.

THE TOBACCO TRADE.
Large Sales of Leaf i'm Prospect in
 New York.

In about month the leaf trade will witness auction sales of seed leaf tobac- co on an enormous scale. For some time past tobacco principally of the '81 and 'S2 crops, Connecticut and Penn sylvania, has been offered in the market by many parties wholly strangers to the trade. They were either representatives of bankers, cotton merchants and pub lie storehouse keepers, who, year ago or more, had made advances on consign- ments of leaf tobacco. When these ad- yarces were made the market quota tions were considerably higher than they are now and as most of the money lenders were unable to determine the real value of the stock, the advances were in many instances so high that to- day sale of the goods in open market would not pay back the money so ad- vanced. A lot of 320 cases, 82 so-called Connecticut, for which firm in Water street advanced to country speculator in Northfeld, Mass, eleven cents year ago, was offered in the market this year for the price, which is exclusive of in- terest and expenses, but no buyers could be found. Several other large lots of the same nature were offered, but also remained without takers. A Wall street bank, near Pearl street, holds storehouse certificates for 480 cases of tobacco said to be 'S2 Pennsylvania. They advanced at the rate of nine cents pound on the same. The party who obtained loan thereon, being unable to redeem the goods, has left the city, and the bank will sell the lot at auction in few weeks. It is said that prominent leaf inspection house has no less than 5000 cases, upon which it has advances, but which the owners have failed to make good within 8 year. These, too, will naturally be thrown on auction and sold Eo the highest bidder.-U s. Tobacco .1ownal, 6spf. (.
