Troy Steam Laundry.

Al Crawford &c Company, the proprie- tors of the Troy steam laundry, are meeting with large and steadily increasing success. ness at 80 Center street, in this city, and almost from the start they received large share of patronage. As their business grew they increased their facilities, and now at the present time their patrons, who are numbered by the hundreds, come from far and near. The secret of the success that has attended this firm is that their work is fault less and universally gives satisfaction. Many persons who have hitherto been dissatisfied with the quality of work done at other laun- dries are loud in their praises of the perfect manner in which all work is executed at the Troy laundry. All who visit the establish ment can rely upon gentlernanly treatment See advertisement.

A Leap For Life.

On Saturday afternoon as the steamer Ply mouth Rock collided with the steam tug George H. Rentz in Hell Gate, Foster San ford, boy thirteen years of age, was seated on sand box with two young men on the deck of the Plymouth Rock. In the collision some portion of the fractured beams were thrown violently forward in frightful proxi- mity to their heads so to save their lives they were forced to jump. In doing so they landed in safety on the deck of the tug. The two men were soon landed at Fort Morris, while young Sanford, whose home is in this city, was kindly cared for by the captain and mate. The latter, Edwin Clark, furnished him with money on arriving at Bridgeport Sunday afternoon, so that he was enabled to take the train for home.

Godey's Lady's Book for August is
an excellent midsummer number,
opening with a pretty poem called
''rhe Flower Gatherers," which is
made the subject of tasteful steel
engraving. Miss Mathes' story,
Directing Of the Weird, multiplies its
charm as it proceeds, and is making
good hit for the Magazine. The
present number contains also the
opening chapters ola serial by Chris
tan Reid, "rhe Story of an Elope'
ment," which bids fair to add anoth
er Iaural leaf to the chaplet Of thi:
popular novelist. The whole literary
tone of the magazine seems to be i'm

and had before it a future of grea
briliancy. 1t is full of interesting

Mr.. Louis j. Brooks and Capt. j.
j. Williams visited the proposed route
of the Forked Deer canal this week.
They found the ridge separating the
sources of Jacks Greek and White
Oak, the one running into the Forked
Deer and the other into the Tennes-
see, to be byno means as high as was
anticipated. In fact, during high
water the back water from the Ten
nessee almost flows over the ridge in
to the Forked Deer, Capt. Williams
considers the canal scheme very prac,
tical, and the fact that he was the
chief engineer under Capt. Eads in
the survey across the Tehauntepec,
gives great weight to his opinions.
He is enthusiastic over the project and
will make survey of the route and
make exact measurements of the
height of the ridge in short time
