A Ghost Story.
Sol Smith was once the means of con- j
verting an unrighteous super by a fright
o' apparently supernatural character.
It waJiyhyu he was a "boy that he slid 1
ia at tl^-etage door of a theater in Al- j
bany, where they were playing j
"Richard/' Being mortally afraid of
violent*efectment in case of discovery,
he crept into a fine, large, roomy bov
that he found leaning up against the
wall. He found that no one came that
way, flS^be&tfoing bolder by degrees. |

until upon a sudden he saw four men
coming straight toward him. Hurriedly
he enteff^^iv hex, and closed the lid. ^
He had scarcely done this, when, as he
expresses it, "I found, to my utter
dismay- that the box was the object of
the r "search. I woe shut up in King
Henry's coffin ! . Hire was a situation
for a 6tage-8tru$k hero. The coffin was
taken up, the men. remarking that 'it
was devilish heavy/ and I felt myself
conveyed down stairs and placed upon
the bier. I lay as quiet as ' the injured
king ' would Jiave lain had he been in i
my place, and was carried forward by
four strong^ supernumeraries ou - the
stage, follow*! by the weeping Lady
Ann and all the couji Little did the .
lady imagine-that site was weeping over
a living corpse ! I perspired most profusely,
and longed for an opportunity to
escape. When I was carried to Whitefriars
to be iuterred,. the supers were desired
to replace the o )ffin in the carpen-;
ter's gallery. Being awkward, and fiuding
the load rather heavy, they turned 1
and tumbled it about in such a way that
I could not bear it any longer, an l was

Webster as a Teamster.
"A. A. P.'.'Svritee to the Woonshcket
(R. I.) Patriot the following story of
Daniel Webster, which the writer has
second hand from the venerable Gov.
Nesmith, of New Hampshire, who was
one of the most intimate of Webster's
personal friends: 44 How the great |
statesman, an a visit to his farm in
Franklin, * tffeed occasionally to

of his favorite friends, and. equipped
with gun and line, taking a trip of a day
or two among thd? wilds of the Granite

of these f occasions, as the sporting
party'iflAiifage was approaching a considerable
hill, it appeared in the dis- ;
tance tha*?w* was stuck in the

and roared out all the usual bucolic |

no use; the wheels were set. The nearer
the Wabetariati carriage approached
the mofC'did the farmer put in to show
himself master of the situation. The j
good oxen kept pulling, btrt the wheels
did not go round. . At length the carriage
arrived near at^ Land, and stopped,

e 1 the proceedings. Presently, without
saying a word, Webster dismounted from
the carriage, and in his most stately
manner walked forward and exclaimed
with commandingfvoice: *Give me,

unconditionally, fed retired to a safe j
distance. Immediately fjie expounder

??Hj*ImL6. Dresses.
I ;
Correspondents? ask for hints about
making white* 'dresses. Rain Swiss
. rnusliu and the figured muslins will both
be wWtf^'liFxt Summer, and in some
dresses both materials will be used. The
. fi jured sheer feaistt?s hove sprigs, dots, j
s ars and laceMike^ arabesques in them.
For dressy oceasjons there will be princessc
dresses m^e of many graduated j
muslin puffs, wjTU MsAtic&s between, '
and lace on the flounces. For other
dresses the Breton style will be made up
in muslin Dad lace, with colored ribbons
or silk laidnuder the lace. The peculiarity
of thp'OBteton dresa is the two broad |
bands at the back that confine the full- j
ness of the ovcrskirt drapery into h soft I
puff. These bands begin low down 011
the side gores and cross the back. They
are made of insertion and lace laid on 1
silk. The overskirt has a long clinging j
wrinkled front, edged with the lace!
trimming. A long pocket of plaited
muslin is on one side, and a succession
of long loops ot ribbon and pointed ends
hangs from the belt to the foot on the 1
opposite side. The loug basque is made i
of plaited gores tapering in at the waist,
and separated by insertion ; a jabot of
lace is down the front, and there are rib
bon bows on the neck, back and sleeves.
Plainer suite of Swiss muslin omit the
lace, and have for trimmings plai tings
so fine that they look like crimping done
by machine. Long princesse polonaises
will be made of figured muslins, and
worn over plain Swiss muslin skirts.
The trinwaing will be puffs of plain muslin,
with colored ribbons run through
them, and finely crimped plaitings.

A
Story of Yanderbilt.
Arbitrary as the czar, Commodore
Yanderbilt was wont to govern, in his
private affa^ with a rod of iron. The
husband of^5ne of the daughters of the '
commodore being unfortunate in busi-1
ness many years ago, she went to lier'
father for assistance, which was refused
in a manner nlore forcible than elegant.
She-^terupily withdrew to fight for completeaftependence.
The next morning
the Sew York of those days was highly
surprised to read the following advertisement,
specially displayed :
MRS. desires to state that she has excellent
table and accommodations for
families or single gentlemen. Refers to her
father, C. V&nderbflt.
That advertisement appeared exactly
one time, for the commodore realized the
situation, advanced backward promptly,
and there was no more dissension in that}
branch of the family forarer afterward.

THE COMFORTS OF HOME.
Different View* in Kexard to a Bill to Punish
Wife Beaters.
The Virginia City (Nev.) Chronicle
says.: A reporter was detailed to interview
the leading families of the Cornstock
on the Woman-beating bill cf
Senator Stewart. First walking up the
steps of a fashionable residence, he pulled
the hell and was received hv a Rarred
looking domestic, and shown into the
parlor. Presently the lady of the house
came down. She shook hands cordially,
and expressed her delight at receiving a
Sunday call.
Reporter?Is your husband at home,
madam?
Lacjr?Husband ? Heavens, no ! He
never is. I guess he's down at Carson,
interested in some bill, or perhaps at
'Frisco. In fact, I don't know where he
is. 3 on't particularly care. He's hardly
ev< : 'round. If I want anything I
take i at a leaf of the check book and
send .he boy.down for the money.
Rep ;rter?I wanted to interview him
on the ' Vife-beating bill. Is he in favor'
of it?
Lady?Oh, Lord ! I never heard him
say! I don't see the use of such a bill,
anyhow. A woman who can't boss her
husband hadn't ought to get married. I
have no trouble with my husband. I
make him walk the chalk every time. I
make it very lively for him when he's
here.
Reporter?But he's not here very
often.
Lady?No. He has no idea of the
comforts of a home. There's nothing
domestic about my hubbie. I make it
as attractive as I can, and yet he never
spends an evening by the domestic
hearth. I'm alone here, week after
week.
Reporter?Well, Mrs. , I must go.
I merely wanted to get your ideas on the
subject.
Lady?Oh, don't hurry off. Do stay
and take tea and spend the evening. I'm
awful lpnesome here all by myself.
The reporter hastened on his mission
of investigation. As he passed up the
nr.-t 11* iL A 1 f A 1
wmten?was vuriieu uui ui wc ^uiu^u
of Eden he wandered about this neighborhood
for some seven or eight thousand
years, and as by that time the
country had become thickly settled, and
cellar .doors invented, the old man was
wont to sit on one of those easy seats
aud relate to the boys of two or three
hundred his experience with that apple.
After he had told the story a few thousand
times it got to be a bore to his
audience, and they, in retaliation, used
to say, when they met him, how about
that quince? and the old man used to
roar out that it was not a quince, it was
an apple, and go off with the old yarn
again. Gradually he got to be callel
Quiucy Adams, and the name has remained
in the family, which is one of
the oldest in the world.?Philadelphia

The Chicago Defalcation.
The Chicago papers give few details
of the postmaster's defalcation which
have not been sent East by wire. Gen.
McArthur was first a boiler maker, then
an iron merchant, then a brave officer of
the Twelfth Illinois volunteers, then a
manufacturer of iron castings, then a
postmaster, and finally a defaulter.
During the past eighteen months he and
hip partner have done very little business
and their property, stock and machinery
have shrunk in value. The firm
were unable to meet their financial obligations,
and after exhausting his resources
the postmaster made use of
government money, " borrowing" it
with the expectation of paying it bftck
as ?oon as the times better.

upon his ear, varied by an occasional
crash. A pull of the bell, however, made
all still within. The lady of the house
came to the door. " Ah, come in, Mr.
; glad to see you. It's so dull here
Sunday afternoons, when we've nothing
to do but read and amuse the children."
(The head of the house was clearing up
the dcbrix of a broken wash pitcher.)
"We just broke a pitcher, showing the
children a trick. My husband tried to
balance a pitcher on his nose, and he's
so awkward. Ha ha, he he, he never
could do anything right." (As the lady
spoke she backed up to the sofa and dexterously
pushed a small bed slat out of
sight.) " Do sit down and lay off your
things."
The reporter made known his mission
at once, and askevl the head of the house
what he thought of the Wife-beating
bill.
Head of House?A good bill; a capital
bill. Prof. Stewart is a man with a
heart in him. The lower classes have no
idea of the devotion a man owes to his
wife; to the angel who bears the burden
of his woes, ministers to his wants, and
mingles her tears and smiles with his.
If all homes were the little nooks of contentment
and joy that this house is?eh,
Libby, dear ??there would be no need
of such a bill. A man who strikes a
woman should be publicly flagellated;
made an example of?don't you think
so ?
Just as the reporter was about to express
an elaborate and touching opinion
on the subject a little child came in and
began to kiss its mother and caress her
head.
"Is poor mamma's head better? It
is better, so it is; papa won't hit mamma
any more with a chair, will 'ou, pa^a ?"
The expression on the face of tne head
of the " little nook of contentment and
joy" was something of a study, and the
reporter, deeming that his" company
could easily be dispensed with, pleaded
a business engagement. As he passed
through the gate the sound of that
child's howl of distress, mingled with
the unmistakable concussion of a falling
hand, smote the still air of that neighborhood.
The United States Navy. '
Secretary Robeson, in a letter to Senator
Windom, chairman of the Senate
committee on appropriations, on the effect
of the contemplated reduction of the
appropriation for the pay of United Stab s
officers and seamen, concludes as follows:
It is proper that I should also remind
you that a large uumber of our officers
and men are now serving abroad on distant
stations in accordance with the
policy of our government and the purpose
for which navies are established
and maintained, and that unless a sufficient
sum is appropriated for their pay
they will not only be left without thendaily
support in foreign parts, but the
department will have no means of protecting
the credit of the government by
payments of the drafts drawn to meet
their expenses ; and that if Congress
should fail to make an adequate appropriation
for this purpose it will be the
obvious duty of the secretary of the navy,
whoever he may then be, to bring cur
ships on foreign stations home at once."

Railway Wheels of Paper. I
The infinite variety of purposes to
, which paper is applied in the empire of *
j Japan, says ihe London Echo, has as- J
tonished all Europeans who have visited t
that country. They have literally found 11
paper, paper everywhere, and in. all t
shapes and forms. The Japanese, how- ?
ever, with all their ingenuity in this di- t
reciion, would never have dreamt of 1 4
midrinrr nauer wheels for railwav car- o
I o x" r? v
riages. 1 J1
This, nevertheless, is being done at jj
Sheffield at this moment, and -we have r
seen a sample of the work. The paper t
wheels have steel tires, made with an in- : 1
side flange and'oast iron boss. On c ach ' F
side of the boss and tire steel plates 3.16 |
inch thick are bolted, and the space be- g
tween the plates is filled with compress- e
ed paper. The paper is composed of t
what are known as "strawbonrds,." and J
these are made to adhere to each other ?
bv means of rye paste. The combined j t
i j. ! _
layers 01 paper are ne*t suujcutevt wj . n
hydraulic pressure to the extent of 2,000 11
tons for the space of four or five hours, '
' and then dried in a heated air bath. s
The final thickness of the prepared 8
paper is about three and a half inches, a
and, as may be imagined, the quantity l]
of strawboard packed into this concen- ! ?
trated space by the giant force of the j E
hydraulic rani is something enormous. : g
J Still a certain amount of elasticity re- ; e
mains to the substance, and this?in i 1
union with its homogenity and singular
smoothness of grain and texture?con- E
stitutes one of its highest qualifications a
for the duty it will presently have to E
i perform. Lathes, slide rests and sharp ?
cutting tools are made to shape the com- a
! pressed paper into discs of the proper g
size, and under a pressure of four hun- v
dred tons these are then forced into the 11
tires. The steel protecting plates are *
subsequently liolted to the inner and e
outer paripheries of the wheels, and a
after a finishing touch in the latter they n
are ready to be keyed on their axles and ^
placed under the railway carriages. &
It is understood that experiments both j
in America and in this country have gone ]
to prove the great superiority of paper c
raLway wheels over those of steel or c
wrought iron, and that the brake, how- ?
ever suddenly and sharply applied, does v
not injure them in the least. t

A fontented Maiden. c
t
An illiterate peasant girl, servant in a v
prominent family of South Maitland, f
Australia, has lately inherited a million 8
and a half of francs, or $300,000. The ?
golden shower has descended on the c
heiress from the will of a distant relative, o
of whose existence she was ignorant, l1
but whc had made a large fortune in ^
America, and left it to this girl and her (
brother in equal portions. The brother r
is a stable boy in a wealthy family near I
Paris. Both are utterly without edu- 1
cation, not even knowing how to read.
The lady with whom the 'heiress con- J
tinues to live while the affairs of the defunct
relative are being settled, is vainly
; trying to give the girl some clear notion *
' of the importance of the fortune she has v
1 fallen into ; but it seems impossible to ?
make her see either the responsibilities ,
I it will entail or the the necessity of turn- t
in'git to useful account. Her sole idea in v
connection with her improved fortune is f
to have " a little house in the country ?
and a good lot of fowls." She stubborn- i
ly refuses to learn to read or write, de- i
claring that she can look after "the c
little house and fowls " without either. *
" But how will you manage your ser- a
vauts?" urged her mistress, "if you do *
not take the trouble to improve yourself
and acquire a better idea of things?"
: "Servants!" answered the girl, with ]
! French gestures of amazement and dis- j
I ffust. "do vou think I would have ser
| vants ? Why, what should I do if I had
| serv ants to do my work ? No, no ; no
! servants for me. I want no one to med,
die with my little house and my fowls.
I shall take care of them myself."
The Mexican Teterans.
During the peat four years extraordinary
efforts have been made to ascertain
the*whereabouts of every survivor, of the c
Mexican war. The number of nam^p t
collected was 6,250, of which 4,629 were e
tabulated to show the regiments in <
which they served. From this compilai
tion it was ascertained that twenty five
| regular regiments showed an average of f
forty-one survivors, while fifteen volun- J
j teer regiments from Indiana, Ohio and i
' Kentucky, average about forty-six each.
Assuming that 4,629 cover only one-half; t
j of the survivors, there would not be over i \
( eighty or ninety men left of the full
i regiments that went to Mexico in 1846,
less than ten per cent of the whole num- <
ber mustered. These are vital statistics, j 1
based on facts susceptible of "proof, j
Senator Ingalls stated that an officer of <
the pension bureau had prepared an es- j
timate which shows that the passage of a !
proposed pension bill will necessitate i
an appropriation of $7,000,000 or $8,000, - <
000 a year.

Justice to Women. i
Prof. Swing,of Chicago,did ample jus- ]
tice to women in a sermon recently, al- j \
though he stopped short of female suf-1 j
j fruge. He held that yroman had nothing > j
to gain froca. politics. She is powerless :
as an inspiration. She has not been the i
I warrior of the great battlefields of life, J
but the trumpeter to inspire the legions.
She moved through the age of chivalry a i
strange impulse the moving spirit of each j
contest of knights and the theme of each 1
harpist. What was a mighty power in ,
romance can be a mighty power in relig- (
ion. She lills our cnurcnes, nns our
prayer meeting rooms, she -writes powerful
moral literature, 6lie invades all
streets and byways in her errands of
mercy, and against the attractions of
fashion and idleness, is almost queen of J
; the empire of religion and charity. Un- |
der the broad confession of her rights i
which the present has made, the inner i
moral sense of woman 60 long denied or i
repressed, lias burst forth in new power. I!

Wonders of Modern Seience.
The perfect accuracy with which scientists
re enabled to deduce themost minute particuirs
in their several departments, appears allost
miraculous if we view it in the light of
he early ages. Take for example, the electroaagnetic
telegraph? the greatest invention of
he age. Is it not a marvelous degree of acuracy
which enables an operator to exactly
3cate a fracture in a submarine cable nearly
hree thousand miles long? Our venerable
' clerk of the weather " has become so thorughly
familiar with those most wayward elements
of nature that he can accurately predict
heir movements. He can sit in Washington
nd foretell what the weather will be to-morow
in Florida or New York, as well as if several
mndred miles did not intervene between
rim and the places named. And so in all delartments
of modern science, what is required
i the knowledge of certain signs. From these
he scientists deduce accnrate conclusions re;ardless
of distance. A few fossils sent to the
xpert geologist enable him to accurately deermine
the rock formation from which they
rere taken. He can describe it to you as nerectly
as if a cleft of it were lying on his taole.
>o also tin chemist can determine the constiution
of the sun as accurately as if that luminry
were not ninety-live million miles from his
iboratorv. The sun sends .certain signs over
ho "infinitude of space" and the chemist
lassiftes them by passing them through the
pectroscope. Only the presence of certain
ubstances conld'produce these solar signs. So
Iso, in medical science, diseases have certain
lIlllll^ULAaUJt; BlgilB, ur anu %JJ IVWon
of this fact, Dr. Pierce, of the World's
Jispensary, has been enabled to originate and
erfect a system of determining, with the
reatest accuracy, the nature of chronic disase
without seeing and personally examining
lis patients. He has spared neither pains nor
xpense to associate with himself, as the
acuity of the World's Dispensary, a large
mmber of medical gentleman of rare attainnents
and skill - graduates from some of the
lost famous medical colleges and universities
f both Europe and America. 13y aid of Dr.
'iecre's system of diagnosis, these* physicians
nd surgeons annually treat, with the most
ratifying success, many thousands of invalids
rithout ever seeing them in person. In recoglizing
diseases without a personal examinaion
of the patient they claim to possess no
liraculous powers. They attain their knowldgo
of the patient's disease by the practical
pplication of well established principles of
lodern science to the practice of medicine,
uid it is to the aoeuracv with which this svsem
has endowed them that they owe their
Imost world wide reputation for the skillful
reatment of all lingering or chronic affections.
This system of practice and the marvelous succss
which has been attained through it, delonstrate
the fact that diseases display certain
henomena, which being subjected to scientific
nalysis or synthesis, furnish abundant and
mmistakable data to guide the judgment ot
he skillful practitioner aright in determining
he nature of diseased conditions. The
mplest resources for testing lingering or
hronic diseases, and the greatest skilh are
hus placed within the easy roach of every inalid,
however distant ho or she may reside

List of Weekly Newspapers.
Send for a Catalogue.
CUTS AND ELECTROTYPES.
No extra charge for cut*, trade marks, unusual diaplaj
i or advertisements inserted aeroaa two or more oolomns
only tveniy-$rttn cuta are required for the whole numbei
of newspapers. Cuta should not be over two and one
1 eighth inches in width.
PROMPT INSERTIONS.
Advertisements are, in all caaea, sent to all of these
papers on the day they are received, and appear in the
following issues without any delay.
CHARACTER OF THE PAPERS.
1 The newspapers are of the better class; the quality ol
paper famished them is of a higher prise than that nsed
by other concerns; they are better edited by highei
priced men having greater experience. Their aggregate
and average circulation is larger.
AN INTERESTING STATEMENT.
To send an advertising order' to 1.150 newspaper!
would require an investment of $34.50 for postage
ftationery would cost nearly as mnch; the labor oi
addressing 1.150 envelopes is considerable; to writ*
, 1.150 orders would'be a great task; to print them
i wonld cost something. Our price for a five-line sdver
tUeraent in the whole 1.1 SO papers, one week, ii
| $31.oO, or $2 less than the postage.
NOTICES IN NEWS COLUMNS.
To have an advertisement set np in the form of read
j ing matter, and inserted in the news columns of news
papers is s very efficient mode of advertising. Thes<
lists of newspapers offer advantages in this respect which
no other newspapers or lists of newspapers possess
.Manufacturers and merchants desiring to publish i
description of their wares or establishments will find
this plan very serviceable. By publishing a series ol
brief notices, they can soon make the merits of thefi
goods familiar to the people of the regions in which
these papers are published.
CIRCULATIONS.
Jhe circulations given are from the American News
paper Directory for 1876. and in hundreds of cases axe Ux
small. For instance, the Chicago Ledger, which appear)
at 4,000 circulation, actually issues 13,000 weekly,
j This is the only list of Cooperative Newspaper* which
has ever exhibited to the sdvertiser the circulation of th<
i separate papers and on this list the actual character oi
i each paper, whether the beat or the only paper in a place
f is plainly indicated in every case. Sena for Catalogue.

SWORN STATEMENT if
OF A
BOSTON DRUGGIST. i
Gentlemen,? I hereby eertlftr i'<it I here had Cik- 5
tarrh for ten rears, and for thelast.lx years have been *
terrible sufferer. I was rendered partially deaf, had a
buzzing In the head, pains across the teuiple, dizzy Si
pells, weak and painful eyes, swollen and ulcerated 2
tonsils, hard and constant congh.severe pain across
the chest, and every Indication or consumption. Mr I
head ached all the time. The matter accamnlatea so
rapidly In my head and throat that I could not keep 4
them ft-ec. Freoncntly at night I would spring ont of 1
bed, It seemed to me, at'the point of suffocation. l
would then have reconrae to every means In my power a
to dislodge the mnens from my throat and head before 4
being able to sleep again. For a period of six Tears
my tonsils were ulcerated and so mneh inflamed that /
I conld with difficulty swallow. I finally consulted aa ?
eminent surgeon In regard to an operation on them, but
at hJs request postponed It. The constant lnflau- e
matlon and ulceration in mj throat, caased by tho a
poisonous matter dropping down from my head, had
so irritated and Inflamed my lungs that I coughed In- (
cesssntly,?a deep, hard cough. Meanwhile my system I
began to show the effects or this disease, so thst I kst ?
flesh, grew, pale, and showed every symptom of an *
early death by consumption. When matters had
reached this stage, or about six months ago, 1 began J
the use of Sanford's Radical Curb roa Catari:it. ,
After using the first bottle I began to improve rapid- i
ly. The first dose seemed to clear my head as I had 5
not known it to be lor years. It seemed gradually to
arrest the discharges. It Hopped my cough in three P
day*. By nslDg It as a gnrglo I soon reduced the lit- j
flamraatfon and swelling of hiy tonsils, so that they
soon ceased to tronble me. Tne soreness across my q
chest disappeared, the buzzing noises In my head J
ceased, my senses of hearing and of seeing were cots- 1
plctcly restored, and every symptom of disease that
nad reduced me to the verge of tho grava disappeared i
by the use of Saxfohd's RadioalCxtrxfob Catarku. 1
1 have been thu9 explicit because, as a druggist, I
have seen a great-deal of suffering from Catarrh, and '
hope to convince many that this is a great remedy. I
I am famillarwlth the treatment of Catarrh as prac- 1
ttsedbythe best physicians, and have consulted tho !
most eminent about my case. I have used every kind
of remedy and apparatus that have appeared during a
Kriod or six years paat, and have, while following i
elr nse, taken great care of my general health, but J
obtained no relief or encouragement from any of them. .
Since curing myself wltliSAgFOBD'a Radical Ccrr, . I
* it in avaf an* hnnHrtrf miAfl I s
without a single-case of failure, and have la numerous
Instances received wholesale orders from parties to ,
whom I have sold one bottle. This is the only patent
medicine I hare ever recommended, never bavin* be? I
lleved in them before, althon*b constantly engaged In
their sale. Very gratefully yours, .
