Monday evening of last week a Mr. Geo.
W. Renford counted forty silver shiner from
the till into hi soot bag he smiled compla
cently and concluded that the drug bnsiness
was "looking up." Just as he was about to
blow the lights, a customer came in, and
placing the bag with its contents on the desk
he turned to wait on him. Several other
parties dropped into the store, and it was
some little time before Mr. Benford was able
to close the store, but when he did so and
went to the tlesk where he had left bis
wealth it was not there. While he was basy

One of the most simple, useful and prac
ticable applications of electricity, which has
yet been given to the public, is embodied in
the new invention of the Portable Electric
Light Company. The little machine whicu
is now attracting so much deserved atten
tion is a small electrical contrivance which
performs the duties of lighter and a burglar
alarm. As a ligher it can be arranged to
produce instantaneous light throughout the
house, and ran also be attached to a medical
galvanic coil by which a powerful current of
electricity can be conveyed. The instrumt
s small and compact, occupying a sw
only five inches square, and can readily be
carried from room to room, as it weighs, but
five Munds. In the second capacity when
attached to window, safeordistr, the unlail
'ing current places the trespasser in a decid
edly embarrassing position, confronting
such a party with a startling bell and in
stant light. It is equally adapted for the
ordinary uses of a cail bell.
Many prominent business men are inter
ested in the company, which was incorpor
ated under the law of Massachusetta Or
ders or inquiries should be addressed to the
business office, No. 22 Water street. The in
strument is sold at the low price of five dol

The .YwvA American f.'etine for March
lens with an article on "Money in Elec
tions," by Henry George, who brings to the
discussion of that hackneyed enljcct a con
tribution full of originalities, Ireshnesi and
keen insight; he points out with admirable
clearness one source of our political ills.
and proposes a remedy that seems both em
inently practicable and efficient. Robert
S. Taylor write of the "Subjugation of the
Mississippi," work which, in hi opinion,
and in that of the Mississippi Commission,
of which he is a member, can be accom
plished only by employing for the pnrnose
of straf ghtening and deeping the nhsnnel,
the forces developed by the river. M'mmre
I). Conway contributes a very striking stndy
of Gladstone as a man and a statesmen,
showing how even the more or less sinister
moral and intellectual traits of his nature,
quite as much as his pre-eminent native
force and elevation of character, conspire to
make him the foremost Englishman of hi
time. Hon. George W. Julian' "Railway
Influence in the Land Office" is a grave, jn
dicial exposure of the practices which,
against the manifest intent of the law
and the determination of the highest
court, have won for corporation millions
upon million of acres of the public
domain. Richard A. Proctor wri'es of

B'td House in determining to ho'd dsilv se.
si'.ns, is a triumph for the ref.-rm spirit.
It was noticeah'e that the opposition to the
proposition in the Senate came from the
leaders of the Stalwart element t.f the Re

House."
The editor of the ftemnemt is supposed to
read the papers n( 'I" Legislative Record.
and therefore ought to know that he latter
statement is false in e-erv particular, and it
is piibliihed to make cheap glory for the
Democratic party at the expense of troth
and common honesty. .
The troth is that on January 15th Mr.

Broth kbsvallev Items:
The suar makers of our township have
during the past week tapped the sweet sap,
and if the weather continues favorable will
in a short time manufacture a large quan
tity of sugar. The sap is extra sweet and
will yield twenty-five per cent, more sugar
from the same amount of water than last
season. "Ground Hog" didn't retard the
sugar-water season very much, neither did
he roughen the weather any, and I hoe
tlie wonderful storm pns.lii.ied by the Cana
dian prophet to occur in the beginning of
March may prove as fallacious as the
'ground hog" sign.
If lime will fertilize the soil, the farmers
of Brotliersvailey will in a short time have

we take thi opportunity of making it
known to the people in general, that we

the glorious victory awaiting ns in 1KM4
Bv the way, this recall to onr memory a
little incident which followed Pattison 's
election, and we will endeavor to give a
sketch, taken from a cornfield, in which a
certain Democrat was engaged in hauling
and storing away his crop of crn. When
the news reached him it comonletely
overwhelmed him wilh joy the only expres
sions of which were these, that some ol the
ears were thrown over the bed. some nnder
and some in amrther direction, but very
few in the wagon. Now shonld they have,
another victory, and it should produce

The season for planting potatoes, corn
ic, is fast approaching aud farmers, in buy
ing fertilizers, should buy the one that gives
the best results tor ihe smallest amount of
money. "Fossil Marl" is just such a fertil
izer. It does not grow a large and useless
stock or vine, but gives the plants a nature1
steady growth, with the same result as you
would obtain from good barn yard manure;
and every farmer known what a fertilizer
good barn yard manure is. Fossil Marl
may be termed a substitute for it, but better
iu many resicts. Fossil Marl doe not
grow weeds, while manure always will.
It is quite unlike Phosphate as it has no
disagreeable smell, and does not burn the
germ of the seed. You cannot bans ly get
too much on an acre, and above all it is
first class top dre ssing for grass, for which
Phosphate can$ut be used. It can be broad.
castcd or drilled in the ground. It durabil
ity and lasting qualities in the ground is
from three to live years, and it sells for
about one-half the cost of Phosphate and
other fertilizers. A good, reliable agent is
