Holy Matrimony” i* the titile of a new book published by Hurd Houghton, of which Kev. dames Holies, 1). 1)., Hector of the Church of the Advent, Boston, is the author. The work is a course of sermons preached by him, which are prcpari d in this shape as a manual of instruction on the subject of matri mony. It is explanatory and defensive of the teaching of the Church upon that subject, en joining the most holy regard for the marriage relation, and scathing in its denunciation of all practises that lend to destroy or weaken it. Clapp North have it for sale. Hurd Houghton publish “Haydn and other Poems,” by the author of “Life Below.” It is an attempt to tell in verse the story of Haydn’s low for Keller’s daughter, or her’s for him. which is mentioned in his biographies. It is an interesting poem, as is almost any thing about Haydn, and will be read with pleasure whether the author builds a reputa tion as a poet upon it or not. Clapp North have it. Harper Brothers publish the “Bazar Bonk of Decorum.” It contains several articles that originally appeared in Harper’s Bazar and thus has its name. It treats npon the care of the person, manners, etiquette and ceremonials. If a person is not well informed in the decencies and proprieties of life this will give him the instruction he needs. It will teach them how to cultivate beauty of person, mind and manners, and aid him in many difficult cases w ith good advice. It is written in a plain, natural, and practical style, and neatly'printed and bound, as such a book should be. (lapp North have it.

ptiljr Jttnitflrft loitnul AUGUSTA, MONDAY MORNING. May 9, 1870 THE FARMER ASD THE TARIFF. We find the following paragraph fron the rerent speech of Congressman Mar shall, on protection, going the rounds o; the free trade press: The farmer starting to his work has i shoe put on his horse with nails taxed i per cent, driven hv a hammer taxed oi per cent., cuts a stick with a knife taxed 50 per cent.; hitches his horse to a plow taxed 60 per cent., with his chains taxed 71 stray children. The bill legalizing marriages with a de ceased wife's sister, has passed the House of Commons. Women in Africa, who have the misfortune to have twins are summarily drummed out ol their native villages. An Illinois vigilance committee has com mitted the mistake of hanging the wrong mar for horse-stealing. Mr. Manton Marble, editor and owner o: the New York World, is dangerously ill am threatened with blindness. San Francisco has an organized band o Chinese blackmailers. An anchor that belonged to Americas Vos pucius and bears his name, is now one of tin sights at Brussels. The yearly meeting of the Iowa Quakers directed that lists should be made out of all users of tobacco. Andrew Johnson has bought a three-story brick house in the city over which he was formerly Alderman. It has been ascertained that every bushel of raw corn yields ten pounds of pork. An ungainly, deformed beggar in New Or 1 leans is worth 820,000 in real estate and runs a stock brokerage business. The white miners at Bannock, Montana, have organized for the purpose of driving 1 Chinamen from the mines. In the shop window of a Kichmond mil linery establishment, may be seen this card “Wanted, n second-hand seamstress.” I The wife of James Lynch, of Manchester, N. II., was burned to death on the 28th ult., by the explosion of a kerosene lamp. A great horrid mouse in her chignon nearly frightened a fair Treasury clerk to death last week. She had worn rats in her hair without shedding a tear. Mr. Edmunds, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Pensions, has presented an ad verse report on the bill granting a pension to Mrs. Lincoln. The Indianapolis Journal says the delirium tremens almost approaches the dignity of an epidemic in that city. A Virginia editor declares that one day, re cently, he became -‘so incensed with the mis prints of the types, that he could not eat with out nnger.” San Francisco proposes to tax the Chinese gambling houses for a fund to pay the expens es of the female slaves who want to return to the Flowery Kingdom. Philadelphia will cool herself with 330,000 tons of ice, this summer. New York will re quire nearly three times that amount to ap pease her thirst. A New Orleans lady lost or mislaid her baby while shopping recently. She thinks she must have left it in some dry goods store, and feels quite bad about it. Religious enthusiasm in Bloomington, Illi nois, has developed a passion among some of its inhabitants for appearing in public in the primitive costume of our first parents. At Spurenburg, Prussia, a layer of salt has been bored to the depth of 2030 feet, of which 2347 is through pure rock salt. An unreconstructed rosebush in New Or leans flaunts the Confederate colors, red white and red, in three roses on one stem, the two outside ones being red and the centre one pure white. A sect in -Massachusetts have found that Sunday comes on Saturday, beginning at two o'clock in the afternoon. They observe it ac cordingly. The Grand Trunk Railway Company is building large brick machine-shops in Toron to, and is in negotiation with the other com- panics for the erection of a spacious central station in that city. A party of covival Baltimoreans going home in the small hours, a night or two ago, were terribly frightened by a white robed ghost on a black horse. It proved to be a young lady somnambulist. Hie Photographic News attributes the ucar ncss of eggs to the fact that four millions are annually employed by photographers in Eu rope, and one million in the United States. A bright lad by the name of I.add dug his way out of the Grant county jail, in Wiscon sin, the other night and stole one of the sheriff’s best horses, and was pursued and caught on an Island near Potosi. Kentucky has its champion old man, “one hundred and fifteen years of age, and able to thread the finest needle,” says the Chicago Times. New York savings banks have over seven million dollars of unclaimed deposits, and it is proposed that they shall build from these funds a home for disabled soldiers and sailors, and an asylum for the orphans of the slain. A process by which copper and all grades of steel and iron are welded together at one heat, lias recently been discovered. The weld remains perfectly solid after being sub jected to the most thorough tests. One watch kept right will do to try many by; but, on the other hand, one that goes wrong may be the means of misleading a whole neighborhood; and the same may be said of the example we individually set to those around us. Colored people are hereafter to ride in cars of their own in the city of llaltimore, and in accordance with the decision of Hon. William F. Giles, United States district judge. m A Georgia paper prints sundry of its tele- 1 grams under the standing caption of “Noon Dispatches.” A typographical error made the heading read “Moon Dispatches” the other day, and the editor received several communications asking him when the lunar line was established. A correspondent of the English Methodist lleeorder says: “It may interest some of your readers to know, that there is yet living in York Street, in this city, a lady who dis tinctly recollects John Wesley—saw him in Ireland—and heard him preach a sermon which, after the lapse of eighty years, is still fresh in her memory.” For the Kennebec Journal. Woman's rights and female suffrage, for sooth! What are our country-women about; What rights do our political sisters want?

The Trustees of the Maine State Agricul tural Society will meet at the Mansion House this evening. Why is a bridegroom worth more than the bride? Because she is given away, and he is sold. Twenty or thirty of the students from the Maine Wesleyan Seminary, Kent's Hill, visit ed the city yesterday, to attend the religious exercises. They returned in the afternoon. Rev. Mr. Mason tells us that The gentleman who was at the door of the Mendelssohn Club on Thursday evening could not have been a Methodist minister, for all of their folks know a prayer meeting from a concert. A woman is never thougli* the less of by a sensible man for dressing plainly when cir cumstances demand it; but thousands have made themselves objects of slighting remarks and even of ridicule, from their silly love of show and fashion. At Bowdoin College on Saturday, the Faculty suspended four Seniors, two Juniors and one Freshman; they expelled one Junior and three f^ophmores.

The new engine house in Hallowell was dedicated last Friday evening by the firemen, who partook of a supper and closed the cere monies with a dance.

He had a little falling out with the Selectmen of his town in relation to the sale of liquor. Said Penny would sell it—the Selectmen didn't want him to, and the consequence was that Mr. Penny changed his residence, lost t eight months’ time, paid $157 in cash and went home to the bosom of his family, a wiser and we hope a better man. £lain sets of btooch and earrings, with yel low gold pendants relieved by highly polished red gold, will be very stylish this summer, the latest novelty being enamelled tracery in re lief on colored gold. The colors of the cnam n el are as brilliant as precious stones; in fact. 2 some of the red and green tints might he easi ly mistaken for rubies and emeralds.

Robinson, chairman of the Com mittee on Memoirs, stated the object of the meeting, saving that it was profitable to pause a little in our business and press of duties to converse for a little time with the dead, and to look into the grave. The following brethren have deceased dur the conference year: Rev. Daniel Went worth, fid years in the itinerancy, Rev. II. Nickerson, .'>0 years in the itinerancy, Rev. 1’. Hoyt, Rev. ,1. W. Sawyer, younger mem bers of the conference. Rev. C. F. Allen of Rangor, spoke in refer ence to Rro. Nickerson. He spoke of him as among the pioneers of Methodism in the State, lie was his first Presiding Elder, and the speaker spoke of finding in him an able coun sellor nnd warm-hearted sympathizer, of his faithful labors in the different positions of trust and responsibility. He was for many years a Presiding Elder; Several times he was sent to represent his conference in the General Conference. After fifty years of itenerancy he returned to his native town to die, an unusual privilege in the history of the itinerant. Though in bis last days the night gathered around him nnd his mental powers weakened, yet he ilid not forget the hour of prayer. Rev. J. Fletcher made a few remarks, re peating one of Rro. Nickerson's last love feast testimohics, in which he said, if he had his life to live over again he would give his life to the Gospel missionary. Rro. E. Robinson spoke of his intimate re i lations with Rro. N., for a long term of years in the ministry. They were dear friends lor i many long years. An appropriate hymn was sung. Rev. C. C. Mason was the first speaker in j reference to father Wentworth, lie died within the bounds of the speaker’s present charge, and he officiated at his funeral ser vice. He often visited him during the year, nnd ever found him trusting in Jesus. His dea'th was peaceful and triumphant. The speaker spoke of the kindness with which the members of the conference treated lather Wentworth, and other aged brethren. He expressed the desire that he might die just such a death. Rev. C. W. Morse was the next speaker. He said that preachers died ns well ns people. He related a very interesting incident con nected with his ministry at Kent’s Hill when in response to an inivitation of father Went worth, he preached a sermon at his house, when the whole congregation consisted of members of the household. Bro. S. Pierce made some very interesting remarks, speaking of the small salary which he used to receive—sometimes not more than forty dollars—of his expenses and sacrifices, lie spoke of his success in preaching full sal vation. Bro. II. C. Tilson, formerly of the Maine Conference, now a member and Presiding El der of Wisconsin Conference, made some remarks. The speaker referred to the pleas ure it gave him to be able to meet with the brethren of the conference after twenty-two years absence. He spoke in touching lan guage of his acquaintance with father Went worth. An appropriate hymn was sung. Rev. S. F. Wetherbeeol Biddeford, was the first speaker who spoke to the case of Brother J. W. Sawyer. He spoke of hia acquaintance with him from early boyhood. He said his most prominent traits of character were con scientiousness, firmness, and perseverance. Though generally appointed to hard fields of labor, he was probably instrumental in saving more souls some years of his ministry than any other members of the conference. The speaker described his dying scene, as he fell so suddenly in the field within sight of his own home—of the anxious waiting of the wife and the little ones, and the sadness and overwhelming sorrow of the family as his cold remains, which had been seen repeatedly during the day by the wife—was brought home. Brother J. Colby, his IreMding Ldder. made some touching remarks in which lu* referred to his lu.'t sermon, on the previous Sabbath as one of remarkable unction and power. The congregation was convulsed with grief, sobs being heard in all parts of the house. It was announced that the wife of the deceas ed was in the congregation—and it was sug gested that a collection he taken for her bene fit; and probably a congregation never es teemed it a greater privilege to give than on this occasion. The collection amounted to >0. Brother B. Lufkin was the first to speak in reference to the character and life of Bro. Hoyt. He spoke of him as being one of the sweetest spirits lie ever knew. Lev. A. Sanderson, his Presiding Elder,was the next speaker. He spoke of him as being one of the most successful ministers of the Gospel wi.ich he ever knew. Though not a brilliant preacher, he was a most faithful pas tor, a man of God whom all that knew him loved. His death was sudden, and his family and church, and a large number of friends are deeply smitten. Lev. Dr. Webber was next introduced to speak to the case of Bro. Geo. Wingate. lie said that w hatever had been said in reference to the sweetness of spirit, and g TilK 11EHT X* IX I C K N PAID Apply iu person or hy letter to .X.

You are aware, as well as myself, that it has been extensively employed in the various diseases of the# bladder and kidneys, and the reputation it has ac quired. in my judgment, i» warranted by the facts. 1 have seen and used, as belore stated, every form of Iluchu—the powdered leaxe-, tincture, fluid ex tracts—ami 1 am not cougnUuut of any preparation of that plant at all equal to yours. Twelve years’ experience ought. 1 think, to give me the right to judge of its merits; and, without prejudice or par tiality. I give yours precedence over all others. I value our Iluchu for its efleets on patients. 1 have cured with if, and seen cured xx ilh it. more diseases of the bladder and kidneys than I have ever seen cured xvitli any other iluchu or any other j proprietary compound of w hatever name.

IIelmjiold, Druggist—Dear Sir: I have been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with gravel, bladder ami kidney affections, during which time I have used various’medicinal preparations, and been under the treatment of the most eminent physicians, experiencing but little relief. Having seen your preparations extensively ad vertised. I consulted mv family physical! in regard to nsing your Hqtraet Rtiehu. 1 did this because 1 had used a'l kinds of adver tised remedies and had found them worthless, aud some quite injurious; in fact. I despaired of ever getting well, and determined to use no remedies hereafter unless I knew of the ingredients. It was this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that it was composed of biielm. cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my phys ician as an excellent combination; and with Ins ad vice, alter an examination of the article and con sulting again with the druggist. 1 concluded to try it. I commenced to use it about eight months ago, at which time 1 vas confined to my room. From the first bottle I was astonished at the ben eficial effect, and after using it three weeks was able to walk out. 1 felt much like w riting to >ou a full statement of my ease at the time, but thought my improvement might only be temporary, and therefore concluded to defer, aud sec it it would effect a perfect cure, knowing that- it would be of greater value to you and more satisfactory to me. 1 am now able to report that a cure is effected, alter using the remedy for five months. 1 have not used any now for three months, and feel as well in all respects ns I ever did. Your Biielm being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor, a nice tonic and invigoriitnr of the sv.-tem. 1 do not mean to be without it w henever occasion may require its use on such affect ions. M.
