''Bantam" Miller in his last issue
'wants to know" why we connrct him
with a poultry show. That's right.Miller,
when you are ignorant don't be ashamed
to ask for information, and you have just
come this time to the right shop for in
'ormation we are chuck full of it on,
subjects, aud we hope lo make some
thing of you after a . while; as you are
now you are nothing but tin abusive
scribbltr, and if there is anything wo
hate it is to see anybody abused. Well,
the reason why we connected you with
a poultry show is you are suoh a purty
bird aud havp such purty futtthers, why
if we hud a good fat chicken just right
to ixt, and it wasn't proud of being
along side of you, in a poultry show, we
would 82nd it to pot in less time than it
takes a sheep to flnp its tail in fly tioie
Ask us souio more questions, wo are
poor but we are not proud.
The appearance of a recent horsp
malady, the origin of which is not yet
determined but in its operation is said
to be different from the once lamous
cpizoot, and the likelihood of its becom
ing epidemic induce an eminent veteri
nary surgeon to make public the follow
ing remedy for the new disease; Iu
the first place' where the primary symp
toms present themselves, apply a strong
solution of camphor to the nose of the
animal on a sponge, internally adminis
tering twenty drips of tha tincture of
aconite root in an ou'ice ol water every
hour for ciht or ten hours, followed
by twenty grains boracio acid in warm
water, externally applying mustard and
flixseed poultices to the throat every
three hours. Where there is much
irritation in the throat, with coughing.
give ten drops of the tincture of bella
d inna every hour alternately with the
tinturo ot aconite Sjfc feel and a
stable temperature of seventy degrees
are indispensable. The disease is essen
tially ot cryptogenic origin, and can
only be overcome by such agents as act
directly and specifically upon the
psorio development.
Pet.rson'8 Magazine, that Queen
of the Lady's Books, is on our table for
November. The priuciptl steel engrav
ing, "Mamma's Flower Girl," is very
beautiful. So, also, is the mammoth
colored steel fashion plate. Hut, n i
cotemporary says, the stories, the fash
ions, the patterns, in short, everything
in "Peterson" is the best o its kind.
For 1876 great improvements will be
made. Among these will be 8 serie? of
illustrated articles, describing the Cen
tennial Exhibition, which will alone be
worth the subscription price. But, io
addition to this, every subscriber wid be
presented, as a Centennial Gift, with a
superb steel engraving (large-sized for
framing) of Trumbull's great picture.

ary inducements will mike this maga

A MAN KILLED WHlLB ATTEMI'INO 10
UOAUD A FtllSIGlIT 1RAIN GOING AT
THE RATH 01' FIFiEEN MIL15S AN
HOUR.
Mondayjcvening last, at about fifteen
minutes alter six oclock a man was
found at the RiJgway depot in an in
sensible condition, with the fingers cut
from his left band and his left foot badly
mutilated and a terrible fracture in hi
skull. No one saw the man at tho time
of the accident and he had laid by the
side of the track for some time before
he was discovered, but the supposition
is that in attempting to board the
through freight, which passed Kidgway
station about six o'clock, he missed his
hold and fell backwards oti the track
stiiking probubly on the rail causiug tho
fracture iu his tku'I, Ihe wounds on his
hand aud foot it is supposed weie made
by the local, which was standing on the
side track t the time, passing over them
One supposition is that he attempted to
board the engine and another is that he
attempted to board the caboose, which
theory is right do one will ever be able
to d( tcrmine,but that the man missed his
hold aud fell while trying to get on the
train there is no reason to doubt. Tho
injured man was taken to the Hyde
House, and under the care of Drs. Hart
ley and McKnight, everything was done
to relieve the unfortunate man, that
skill and judgment suggested, but
without avail. No reaction took place
but the man was at times delirious,
when it required two or three men to
hold him, yet at no time was he con
scious, save of pain. At twelve o'clock
death endued and relieved the sufferer
of his suii'eriug.
Au iuqucst was held by Esquire
Mead and a jury composed ot James
Fullcrtoo, E K Gresh, Chas. Holes, II
II Wensel. James McGinnis, and Wil
liam Cummiugs, who elicited the follow
ing facts; The name of the deceased
was John Jierdaoier, aged about thirty
five years a resident ot Benovo, a mar
ried man having a wife and one child a
mou'.dct by trade, who bad been teach
ing school at Benovo for some time past,
and who had acted in the capacity of
brakeiuan on a fteight train. On the
diy of the accident he came to llidg
way for the purpose of getting employ
ment at the new foundry ot Messrs
Hyde & Kliue, aud was engaged by Mr.
Kline.
We Icirn from other sources that the
man was well educated aod a sober and
industrious man.
His wife had been married before
and h id lost her first husband and nine
children, besides losing a child by her
second husband, aud now her second
husband is sent to her coffiued and
shrouded who but yesterday was in the
full enjoyment of life aod physical ac
tivity, filling as it were her cup of
misery to overflowing. In the dead
man's pocket was found a package of
candy which ho wase carrying homo to
his little child, and who cau surmise
what visi ins of home Wed bis mind as
hi was about to take the fatal step,
which lorever veiled theth'ns of time
from his ml: lit
The remains weie :;tnt to Benovo on
mail Tiiwsday afternoon.
"Bantam" Miller again makes an un
feeling allusion to our hair and calls us
a "fu.zy pated arbitrator;'' in a former
issue we triel to explain to hiui why we
could not keep our buir as sleek as ho
does his, aud wo have this week been to
the barber aud offered him ihe job ol
taking daily euro of our locks if he
would make a ds taction of eighty-six
per cent, frutn regular prices, lie
didn't appear to be in gnod humor, told
us to go somewhere, we didn't exactly
catch the word but it sounded like
''Halifax," at any ratojit began with' II
aod as we turned to go we heard him
mutter somethiu'j; about having enough
of that kind of trade or, band now. As
wo had no particular business in Halifax
or any other place, except our office we
siid'y returned there aud penued this
eloquent paragraph.
The voice ot the gudgeon is no more
heard through the laud, it lias again re
tired to private life, cause, the results of
the late election are not of character to
cheer the hearts ot the long-suffering
and patiently waiting Djtuooraey. Iu
ths m;antitne two kegs of powder are
offered for sale low, to any one who will
