It seems that the famous Samsons, who have been from father to son for many generations the executioners in the De partment of the Seine, including Paris, have died out, and that a German, or a man of German origin, by the name of Heidenreich, now occupies the position, which is regarded by all Europeans in gen eral the most horrible business in the world. The recollection of tile butcher ies which, in the name of the law, or what during the revolution was called law, were performed by the executioner, surround ed the name of executioner of Paris with a i>eculiar horror. He was regarded as the man of blood, by preference. The present executioner of Paris, Hei denreich, is very often interviewed by the journalists of the French capital. They describe him, uniformly, as a well-inform ed man, whose utterances inspire much sympathy. A short time ago, four or five French journalists called on Heidenreich, who lives in the vicinity of Engheim, about four English miles from the center of the city. They were received with great cordiality. ’They took coffee with him and smoked his cigars. He made them acquainted with his son—a lad of fourteen years—who, ns ho said, had not the least idea of the terrible functions ol Ins father. He showed them the axe, which he keeps in a special wardrobe, and they close their account with the remark, “that they left Heidenreich with sentiments of tlic highest respect." Heidenreich is a man of forty years of age, tall, well built, and of a very deter mined character. At certain intervals a messenger brings to his house a small bag of yellow leather, lie gives his receipt, and at once prepares the axe for a new ex ecution, by grinding the edge as sharp as a razor, it weighs about eighty pounds, and is of triangular shape, lie leaves his house iu company with two assistants, and superintends during the next nightthe erec tion of the scaffold on the Place de la Ka qutttte. Before daylight he ascends tho scaffold, fastens tho axe to the block with his own hands, tries whether it moves easi lv through the pulleys, leaves the terrible instrument in charge ol one of his assist ants, and proceed* to the prison. The di rector fit' the prison conducts him in per son to the cell of the culprit. Heidenreich asks the name of the man who is designat ed, and when he ascertains that he is in the presence of his victim, he lays his hand upon his shoulder and says: “Thou belongest to me.” The executioner then gives a receipt to the director of the prison, and from this moment the culprit is called the patient, whom nobody is permitted to touch except the executioner. He ties the hands of the patient behind his back, puts a short chain on his feet, which per mits the culprit to make very short steps, and connects the chain to the hands by a rope of the exact length required. We pass the rest—it has lieen so often described. After the execution is accom plished, our Parisian interviewers say that Ileidenreieh returns home with his heart broken, and the symptoms of despair on his countenance. HtJ cleans the axe as soon as lie can, hides it in his wardrobe, and then attempts to tind comfort in sweet talk with his boy, who tries also to dispel the gloomy thoughts of his father, of the origin of which the pour child is supposed to be ignorant.—Exchange.

These fig ures >liil not include the permanent appropri ations, such as for the payment of the inter est on tlic public debt, the collection of cus toms, &c. If these were added in order to j obtain the sum totals, the result would he as follows: The estimates for the coming year would amount to $298,815,842, and the ap propriation* recommended l>y the Committee to $284.972,317, being a reduction under the j estimates of $13,342,225. The appropria j tions for the present year, including the per mat,cut appropriations, were $297,173,923, being $12,201,300, more than the appropria tions recommended fur the next fiscal year. The recent thunder stonn which passed over the country was very severe in West ern Massachusetts, as the following front the Springfield Republican shows It swept over the northern part of Rerkshirp county, barely touching the centre of our city with its skirts, and was very heavy to north ward. It was probably the most fearful and ravaging storm that has rushed through j this section of country for a generation. At I Pittsfield, the hail was the size of walnuts, ami, dashed by the fierce north wind, pelted the young fruit from the trees, twigs and leaves from the forest, riddled field and gar den crops, and destroyed certainly I 00,0u0 lights of glasr. Maplewood Institute, the fac tories and all exposed buildings suffered se verely; limisfnllen greenhouses being damag ed over $100; Seaver’s gallery $100, etc. At Northampton the l-olts were larger than anywhere else, some weighingten ounces, and many measuring from five to ten and a half inches around, and weighing front three to six ounces. The Connecticut Kiver Railroad's freight house roof was broken through, the skylights in Mr. Spaulding's school and all the photograph galleries, and panes were smashed on the north side of very many build ings. In the immediate vicinity yesterday's storm was not very had. At Jcnksville the hailstones were as hig as walnut". Dean’s factory lost skylights and many panes; the Indian Orchard school-house suffered soinc w hat, and Sixteen Acres was honored with slight visitation. The whole duration of the storm wa* scarcely more than twenty minutes. The Georgia Republican says of the ap pointment of Mr. Akernaan “Mr. Aker umn is well known to the people of Geor gia as one of the ablest lawyers in the State, as able as Toombs or Ben. llill. We believe hint to be by far tbc most, in fluential Uepuuliean in the State, and his appointment will do much to settle the difficulty in our party, lu the name of the Republicans of Georgia, we thank the President for selecting this able lawyer and Christian gentleman for a place in his Cabinet.” A good story is told concerning a visit made several years ago by a party of prominent Republicans of Delaware to President Lin coln. Our Delaware friends, with a proper appreciation of their position as representa tive gentleman of the party, informed the President that they were all influential citi zens, and among the heavy men of the upper end of Delaware. “So you all belong to the ‘upper end’ of the State?” reflected Mr. Lin coln, with a roguish twinkle in his eye, and j then with a look of earnest solicitude inquired, ‘•Is there no danger of the State tilting while you are away?” The party had a good laugh over this joke at their expense, but neverthe less resolved that it should not be suffered to leak out at home. It was too good to ho kept, however, and the surest way even now to rile one of these “heavy men" is to askhim, when about departing from home, if he is not afraid the State will tilt. The Rockland Free Truss says “Mr. Blaine has honored his District by attaining the high position ot Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and his distinguish ed ability is conspicuous among the assem bled representatives of the nation. The Third District reaffirms its confidence in his faith fulness to its local interests, ns well as to the principles of Republicanism, in again placing Mr. Blaine in nomination. He will be elec ted by the usual large majority.” The Maine and New Hampshire Printers Reunion will be held at Bye Beach Wednes day and Thursday, July 20th ami 21st, instead of one day later, as has been stated. Busi ness meetings will occupy the afternoon of the opeujng, and in the evening the oration arul poem will come off. On Thursday forenoon the party will visit the shoals, dining at the Appledore House, and will return to Ports mouth in season to take the evening trains for j home. The total valuation of Lewiston for 1370 is 90,271,713. The rale of taxation is 3 per cent j aggregate taxation, 9135,420. POLITICAL. Secretary BoutwcII lias appointed Josiah II. Pieno a temporary inspector in the Custom House at Baatport, Me. The ordera of Midshipman George I,. Dyer i of Maine, to the Plymouth, have been re voked, and Midshipman George A. Calhoun of Maine lias been ordered to that vessel. The United States Senate has ageeed, hy a vote of 34 to 23, to abolish the income tax al together. Speaker Maine lias procured the passage by the House of a joint resolution donating six condemned cannon and twenty round-sliot to be used in the erection of a Soldier’s Mon ument at Gardiner. Hiram E. Nickerson has been appointed Postmaster at East Norwich, vice Samuel Bassett, resigned: John C. Stover has been appointed at Sandy Point, Me., vice Nathaniel Stover deceased: Nathan Hangs been ap pointed at West Durham, Me., vice Charles S. Burgess, resigned. Domestic Krtofi. The 14th annual exhibition of the Eaton School took place nt Norridgcwock on the 23d inst. A correspondent of the Portland Press says that nearly all of the declamations evinced a good degree of proficiency, while several were of a very high order. The same can be said of the readings hy the ladies. The prize declamation was awarded to W. T. Blunt ol East Somerville, and for reading to Miss Mary J. Peet of Norridgcwock. At eight o’clock quite a large audience gathered in the vestry and hall where music, literary oxcrcisesfstrawberries, ice cream and a “good time generally” were harmoniously combined. Of Mr. Eaton, Principal of the school, it is unnecessary to speak. He still maintains the honorable reputation he has won as a High School teacher. Thc'following patents were issued to cit izens of Maine for the week ending June 21. 1870: J. ,T. Eniery, Owl's Head—Cable Stopper. G. F. Morse, Portland—Sleeping Car. >V. W. Bartlett, Portland—Spring Bed Bottom. C. Hardy. Biddeford—grinding Ledger and Fly Bladiui plainer knives. A Town, Auburn—Composition Bronze Paint. E. A. Wilder, Dcnnysville—Medicine for Cure of Diseases of Cattle. Mr. J. B. Hill, the landlord of the Hallo well House will move in to-day. Monday, and be ready to receive guests by July 1st. The house has been entirely renovated, and every room from cellar to attic, has been cleaned, painted and whitewashed. The blinds and trimmings have all lieon painted, and the brick are to be oiled. The house is one ot the largest in the State and presents a very handsome and attractive appearance. Great credit is due to Mr. Win. Graves, w ho has had charge of the work, for the thorough and expeditious manner which the repairs have been made. The barns of Alex. Lowry, about two miles from Iloulton village, were struck by light ning on Monday night of last week, and destroyed by tire. The Times says that no portion of their contents, with the exception of one horse, was saved. Mr. Lowry loses with the buildings, a valuable mare, new double wagon, 6 tons of hay, sets of harnesses, all his farming utensils, valued at 92000; in sured 1900. The new boat for the Bath and Bootbbay route will be launched probably this week, says the Times. In length this boat is 85 by 15 feet beam. The guards extend 2 1-2 feet on each side, thus making 20 feet width on deck. The cabin is 22x13 feet dimensions witli an awning extension forw ard of about 30 feet. It lias a speed wheel of (i 1-2 diameter ami her cylinder is Id inches stroke and diam eter. The sloop boat Gipsy, capsized last Tues day in Portland harbor, was raised by parties Friday and taken tvf them to the city. Her mast was broken and her sails torn but her bull was not injured. Both sheets were found firmly secured. As yet neither of the two missing bodies of those drowned in her have been recovered. The Lew iston Journal says that a little lour years old boy, whose mother bas taught him to recite the Lord’s Prayer faithfully, went to church with his mother last Sunday. The minister iu closing his prayer, recited the Lord's Prayer. Immediately on his saying “Amen,” a little child's voice startled and amused the congregation by saying That't right." The Land Agent, accompanied by lion. Noah Barker, is engaged in surveying lots oi one hundred acres each for the new colony o( Swedes who are expected to arrive in August. The locality selected is in township 14, range three, lying northwest of the town of Lyndon. Cornelius Boyle, a seaman who arrived at Bangor last week on the brig Inganic, from Philadelphia, fell through the railroad bridge Tuesday night, while in a state of intoxica tion and was drowned. His body was re covered. Rev. W. T. Sleeper was installed pastor oi the Congregational church in Sherman on Sunday. The installation sermon was de livered by Rev. Horace James, of Lowell Mass. On and after Friday next, the Bath Daily Times, published by “Toby Candor," is to hi i changed from a morning to an evening paper The propritor hus long contemplated this j change. The paper will go to press every afternoon at five o’clock. The Mechanic Blues of Portland observed their (i.'-td anniversey on Friday, by ail ex cursion to Chebeagua Island Shooting, dinner and speech-making were here in dulged in, and many happy toasts offered and responses made. Cholera pills, in the shape of green apples, have made their appearauce in the markets. People who value their own and children’s i health will let them alone. GOVERNMENT OF MAINE, t*70.

ILoral anti £tatc Nctos. Who wouldn't lie a fat man now? Exclamation of greasy individuals—“Oh Lai d!” The grammar schools have indulged in an excursion to Webber’s pond. Even printers are treating themselves to vacations. They are the men of the period. Hath people are “tickled to death” about a first class grave yard. A pritpcr observance of tho Fourtli is con templated at Togus, liy tlio “Iloys in Blue.” Jonah probably found that the end of a wail was blubber. It is thought that when the woman question is decided and tho unmarried ladies get votes, there will be missrule. The following sentence of only thirty-four letters contains all tho letters of the alphabet: —“John quickly extemporized five tow bags.” The police recently paid Thomas Springer a visit, making a seizure of liquor. Thomas lus now four cases under consideration It is expected tiiat the new post office will be completed and ready for occupancy about the middle of July. A fire in Bath on Saturday slightly dam aged the building occupied by Mr. Charles Matson, door, blind and sash manufacturer. The heart-rending question of tho census taker—“How old was you at your last birth day, ma'am?” A man who lias just got out of a law-suit, wants to obtain a large framed picture of a cow w itli one client at the head, and the other at the tail, pulling, and the lawyers meanwhile quietly milking. A good old apothecary in Brunswick, left on his door, a scrap of paper which read:— “Gone to Portland. Those who cannot read this notice will please call at the book-bindery opposite.” We have now fairly entered upon the “heated term.” Saturday noon the thermom eter stood at 99 in the shade. Whether the “oldest inhabitant" ever saw it hotter than that in these parts, is extremely doubtful. He did not deem it his duty to withdraw him self from the shady nook into which he was cnsconsed to answer any interrogatories. A housewife set a pail of water in the sun-shine, and in an hour's time was supplied with warm water for washing dishes without building a fire in the stove. It was a regular “peeler,” and no mistake. The preparations for the Masonic celebra tion at Bangor are on the most extensive scale. To accommodate all who desire to vis it that city on Tuesday, the 28th inst., the Portland Kennebec and Maine Central road will carry passengers for one fare the round trip—return tickets good until the 30th inclusive, only—and all who go will purchase their tickets at the ticket offices. The half fare is not confined to Masons, but all may go who wish. A special train will leave Augus ta on Tuesday morning, at or about seven o'clock, stopping at all stations forpassengers. Passengers from all stations below Gardiner, can come to Augusta on the Monday evening Train, 27th, ami go on Special Train next morning. Gardiner and Hallowcll passen gers will take the Dummy Car the first trip on Tuesday morning. A special train will leave Bangor Wednesday, at about three o'clock P. M. Fare from Augusta to Bangor and return, $3.GO; Hallowell $3.70; Gardiner $3-85. We have already made mention in these columns of Mr. Itenben l’inkham of Sidney, who is at Llie present time living at the Mili tary Asylum at Togus. lie was eighty years old last May, and is still a hale and hearty old fellow. We pity the young chap who might by some means be induced to take hold of the old man at “the side hugs.” There w ould be lively times, and doubtless the youthful ath lete would “hear something drop." The oth er day the old gt ntleman brought to our of fice for examination a very ancient Family Bible which has been in his family and trans mitted from generation to generation for one hundred and eight years. It contains the rec ord of his grandfather’s and father’s family. It is an Oxford bible and was printed in 1762. its original owners were very careful of it, and the time-honored luhle passed from their hands in a good state of preservation. Those who received it next in order were not quite so careful; the precious old heir-loom receiv ed hard usage; many of its leaves were torn out. others were finger-marked, stained, and mutilated. Atone time it was lost sight of by the legitimate heirs. Finally it was dis corded and came into the hands of its pres ent owner as a gift from the mother of Hon. Abner Coburn of Skowhegan. No one can justly estimate the value which the old man puts upon this present, coming to his hands as it does richly freighted with the memories of the past. The grandfather, Christopher I’inkham, who was the original owner of the bible. was born in Nantucket on the 25th of duly, 1730. For many years he wus a seafaring man, but after wards abandoned that occupation, moved to Sidney, in this county, purchased a farm about five miles from Augusta, and went to plowing the earth instead of the sea. Here in 1,01 his son Iteuben was born, the father of the Reuben at the present time liv ing. The senior Reuben lived on the farm until about 10 years of ago, when hedied. Mr. I’inkhum’s mind is still strong, ami his memory of events far in the past fresh and vigorous. He Is a cousin ef V. I). I’inkham, Esq., of this city. Most of the family had large frames and are blessed with good con stitutions. The life of Mr. l’inklmm has been a checkered and eventful one. As he stands now, as it were, for a brief season between the living and the dead, he is privileged to hold communion with the past—to live in its days that have glided away, and participate in the great events that are known to most of us only as we glean them from the pages of his tory. A brief glance at the military earcer of Mr. Finkham may not be unprofitable or altogether devoid of interest. The military spirit seems to leave bee# born in him. When a hoy of 14 he “trained” in a company of boys, armed with wooden guns, under the command of 'apt. Ben. Branch. This military ardor and enthusiasm increased with his physical strength, and when at 18 years of age we find him in what was called at that time the “string-bean militia,” a member of th? company commanded by Capt. Stephen Cove joy. One year later lie was called to guard the old Ke incbec jail in this city, to repulse a threatened attack of the ruffi ans disguised as Malta Indians, who had determined to liberate some prisoners confined in the jail, lie boro au honorable part iu the war of 1814. The company with which he was connected was ordered to do guard duty at Wiscasiet, Kdge comb and Sguam Island. When 4tt j years of age, the famous Aroostook war “hurst upon the country." Mr. 1’inkham be came a substitute for Capt. Samuel Kastman ami filled his place in the ranks. Two of his sons were also in the same regiment as sub stitutes. The old gentleman acknowledges that his going "to tile front” was not timuhit ed altogether by the purest patriots-n—that he and his sons knew there would he no fighting, and “filthy lucre,” pure and sim ple, beckoned him on to the “field of carnage and death” in the Aroostook country. lie was permitted to return “after the battle, mother,” to the bosom of his family, safe and sound, with a land warrant in each hand. Since these eventful scenes, Mr. I’inkham has resided- iu Massachusetts and in Wis consin. living in the latter place for thirteen years. lie was there on the breaking out of the late civil war. Ilis keen, eagle eye de tected the gathering clouds long before they burst in fury upon the country, and he knew that war was inevitable. He had been trained III Uie «JUCKSUII scuuui oi puiuirn, ami It was hard to break away from his old fiv-ociates, hut he s aw how they were arraying them selves against the country he loved s well, striking against the flag he had tried to up hold, and lie left the ranks of the corrupt and traitorous democratic party forever, and joined himself to the young and vigorous republican party that had enlisted for the salvation of the* I'nion. lie wa> then 70 years of age, and of course too old to enlist in tlie army; hut lie was in a position where he could render a good deal of aid to the I'nion cause, in encouraging men to enlist, filling up companies in the town where he lived and doing the work of a patriot in many ways. At the close of the war Mr. Pinkham returned to his native State and is now enjoying a grven old age, with the pros pect of many comfortable years before him. *prria( Kotirrs.

Washington. .June 25. Senate. The House naturalization bill was taken up. Mr. Drake in reference to the alleged enor mous frauds at the elections in New York, predicted a general civil war as a certain re sult of the success f the candidate for presi dency elected by that vote. '1 he report of the Committee of Conference on the bankrupt Dili was submitted and adopt ed. Mr. Saulsbury said that every election since tlie passage of the 15th amendment had gone adversely to the Republicans, and now they were afraid to depend upon 7,000 ignorant colored voters they had manufactured, and that tfie party wanted to exclude hundreds of thousands of naturalized voters, so as to carry further elections. Mr. ickcrs followed in opposition to the hill, which he characterized as outrageous and Unprincipled. After further remarks bv Messrs. Vickers and Bayard against the hill, at 5-30 o’aiock an understanding was effected that the hill should he postponed till Saturday next, upon condition of heir g then finally disposed of. Adjourned.

Mr. Wells of Missouri, moved to strike out the appropriation of $25,000 for the Boston Custom House. This motion brought up again the subject of the New York and Boston Post Offices, with the usual onslaugt on the Architect. The motion was rejected. On motion of Mr. Dawes $2,500 was appro* ated for three permanent lights on the Provi dence river. I*. I., above Sabine’s Point. The Committee rose and the Senate amend ment to the bill to revise, consolidate, and amend the patent and copyright laws was non concurred in, and a Committee of Conference ordered.

Yon Brock was formerly Mayor of Salcs bury, Germany, and a prominent officer of the State Militia, and Paymaster of the Dele ware Hudson Canal Company. The emigrants last week numbered 7170, a marked decrease as compared with the first two weeks of the month, or corresponding weiks ol last year. The falling oft' is due to the landing at 1 Portland and Boston of several steamers, whence the emigrants were forwarded by rail to this port. Delia Dickinson yesterday recovered $5,000 from the 7th Avenue Railroad Co., for injuries received on their ears. The suit of Laura B.

piifg Jintiifkc. journal. THE LAZY MAS. The la*v man. says the “Fat Contribu tor,” is almost always good natured. lie never flies into a passion. He might crawl Into one, if that were possible, but the idea ot his living into anything is preposterous. Who ever heard of a lazy man breaking into a bank, where a crowbar had to be used, or drilling into a safe? Nobody. Not that he might not covet his neighbor's goods contained therein, but the horror of handling a crowbar and drills would always deter him from actually committing burg larv. He never runs away with his neigh bor’s wife, simply on account of the horror he has of running. If he is ever known to run, it is to—run to seed. He rarely lies about his neighbors, for it would be too much excriion but lie can lie at a bar-room all day. He is of inestimable service to a billiard saloon, keeping the chairs warm and watching tile game, for few would care to play where there are no spectators. The fact that he does this without pay, clay in and day out, shows the unselfishness of Ills nature." What an industrious man, who considers his time worth something, would want pay for, the lazy man generally does for nothing, showing a freedom from mer cenary motives that should go far to his credit. No lazy man ever got up revolutions, insurrections, or other popular excite ments, and don’t make a nuisance of him self by tramping around the country mak ing incendiary speeches to promote public discontent. In his own neighborhood he is never a busybody in other people's affairs, for the very idea of being a busybody at anything would drive Him out of his head. By the way, if he ever got out of his head, you would have to drive Him out, for he wouldn't have energy enough to go out of his own accord. No lazy man ever ran mad. If lie went crazy it was beeaus lie couldn’t go any where else without walking. Portland Kennebec Railroad. Summer Arrangement, May 23, 1870. OS amt after Monday, May *)oid by Unl-lyt_W. WESPKNBUKO.

Dr. Helm bold—Dear Sir: It is with much pleasure that 1 write you upon facts respecting my self. 1 do not know hardly how to express myself. I have been for the last ten or twelve years the greatest sufferer man could lie and live; but more sometimes than others. The complaint was the “Kidneys” and “Bladder.” I have been sometimes from twelve to fourteen hours, and w anted to make water every minute, but could not. Have consult ed doctors, both in Massachusetts and this State, and taken pills, 1 may say, by the quart, also liq uored medicines, but found no relief from any, and got worse the last six months. I was so that I could scarcely get about. I could not rest night or day. It would soon have been “all up” with me if I had not seen your advertisement m “The Berkshire Courier” beaded “Kidney.-.” I read it through ::sd thought I would try it. i purchased a bottle, but, mind you, had not much faith in it. Why should I, when I had been trying so many things and cost me so much Well. I began taking it, and before 1 had taken the first bottle I felt bad; but 1 finished it and got another. By the time 1 took half of the second I still got wor*e (apparently). When 1 walked it seemed as if my right kidney was falling from its plat c. and I felt really bad. 1 felt so, before I had finished the second, that I had made up my mind it j was of no use trying any more—ami ail this time the “Buchu” was doing its work, but 1 did not 1 know it; so I gave it up and went to Hartford on Saturday to bee one of the best doctors in the city. He said it was the neck of the bladder, and I should have to undergo an operation. He gave me med icine, and 1 went home quite downhearted. On Sunday! was unable to go to church. I had not taken any of his medicine, but on my return contin ued using the “Uuehu,” and in the afternoon I had a desire to make water, but could not. About one hour after this I tried again, with the same result; but the next time J look the vessel it was the same us turuing a faucet and stopping it off' again. It w as so for three times, and the third time there was something came through the passage aud struck against the side of the vessel. I examined it, aud it is the ugliest stone or gravel vou ever saw, cov ered over W'ilh little peices which collided together. It looks the color of a mud turtle, and is as hard as a flint. Ho you see the “Buchu” was doing its work although I was feeling so badly. I procured an other bottle thinking their might be some more be hind, but since that lms passed, which is eigtit weeks ago last Sunday, I have been as w ell as ever I was In my life. 1 have thcbtone securely wrapped and those who have seen it iu this place are sur prised. I cannot tell you all, but this is a true story of my case, and you are welcome to make such use 7. II. T. Helmbold, Druggist—Dear Sir: I have l>cen a sufferer for upwards of twenty years witti gravel, bladder and 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 my family physical! in regard to using your Eqtract Buehu. I did this because I had used a’l kinds of adver tised remedies and had found them worthless, and 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 vour remedy. As you advertised that it was composed of buehu. cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and iny phy s ician as an excellent combination: and with Ins ad vice, alter an examination of the article and con sulting again w ith the druggist, I concluded to try it. I commenced to use it about eight months ago, at which time I vas confined to niv room. From the first bottle 1 was astonished at the ben eficial effect, and after using it three weeks was able to walk out. I felt much like writing to you a full statement of my case at the time, but thought inv improvement might only be temporary, and therefore concluded to defer, and see it it would effect a perfect cure, knowing that it would be ol greater value to you and more satisfactory t«> me. I am now able to report that a cure is effected, after using the remedy for live months. 1 have not used any now for three months, and leel as well in all respects as 1 ever did. Your Buehu being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor, a nice tonic and invigorator of the system. I do not mean to be without it whenever occasion may require its use on such affections. M.

The first number of the Daily Kennebec jorn hal wuh issued from the Journal office on Satur day. It is about the size and style of arrungeinent mi* the usual Daily Legihlatlve Journal, and in ty pographical appearance will compare favorably, we think, w ith the other Maine dailies. It ia de signed by the publishers to issue it daily through the* year, but we fear they will find their e nterprise which ought to be a paying one, considering the Held it will occupy, to prove a losing one. It costs a deal of money to publish a paper these times, and h large, prompt paying subscription list and a good ly amount of advertising patronage at respectable rates, are necessary to make a paper self-siistaiu ing, and prevent its being a source of embarass ment to its proprietors. We tender this new can date for public patronage our wishes for its flnan Cial success.— Maine Standard. The Daily Kennebec Jocrnal made its first appearance last Saturday.
