The Reason of this Great Superiority is apparent to all who carefully examine the pecu liar mechanism of these instruments in The Equalizing Scale. which distributes the tension of the strings upon all parts of the frame, relieving the instrument from concentrated strain in any one part, thus securing much greater ptrength, durability, and power of keeping in tune, The tSreater length of Strings, through all the treble and middle notes, the distri bution of string* upon the Unear Iti’ldge, w hich runs the whole length of the sounding board, giving greatly Increased Power of Vibration throughout its entire length, producing a purer tone and better accompaniment to the voice than any other instrument, j All interested are invited to call on I.

Severe earthquakes, almost if not quite simultaneous in their action, occurred last month on several parts of this continent and the opposite sides of the world, in Japan. At Oaxaca, in Mexico, the first convulsion occurred at 11:30 of the night of May 11, continuing on the following day, May 12, anil at Japan at twenty minutes before 3 on the morning of May 13. Allowing for differences of longitude and time, these earthquake shocks were at most but a few hours apart, and in all probability identical in point of time. At Oaxaca, which is a substantially built town, two hundred years old, heavy convent and palace walls and towers were shaken into ruins, killing and maiming many unfortunate people. The known deaths were 103. The whole city was so badly shattered that an additional shock would have thrown it all down. But little is yet known of the damage dona in Japan beyond the great terror. Two hundred miles out from Y'okohama, to the southeast, the captain of the Bene factress observed a submarine volcano, in violent eruption, and the volcano on the island of Niphon, in Japan, was in the same state. It will be remembered that on the 12th of May, an earthquake shock was felt in Perryville, Ala., Charleston, S. C., and Shreveport, La. There were shocks in Arkansas on the 11th of May, and in the French West India Island of Guadeloupe on the 10th. But the simulta neous character of the violent convulsions on the 11, 12, and 13th of May in Mexico and Japan, on opposite sides of the globe, with nearly the whole of the earth's eight thousand miles of diameter between them, leads to the belief that the same mighty in ternal throes produced them all, and shows that what we regard as the vast solid bulk oi the earth is but a fragile crust when assailed by the tremendous energies con fined beneath its surface. CHEWING GUM. The following, clipped from an ex change, will be of interest to many who cannot find sufficient emvloyment for their masticators at the tafde: Chewing gum is made at l’oduck, Massachusetts, of gum arabie, rosin and eoarsoJat. Thu following will lie interesting to girls who keep their jaws wagging by gum power: Any kind of fat. ev en that of dead dogs, is used in the manufacture, and when all the ingredients are placed in boiling ket tles, a small quantity of the most nauseous liquid foam is put in to whiten the gum— When this fact is known, girls have a per fect right to chew gum if they want to. An adventure reminding one of the old story of Israel Putnam, is going the rounds of the western press. The depre dations of the wolves of Franklin county. Miss., induced the farmers to organize a wolf hunt. F.xeitement was abundant for seven hours, during which jtime bqjf a dozen wolves were killed aud as many dogs badly injured, when the wolves re tired to their den, followed by the dogs, it soon became evident the dogs were be ing badly used, and their rescue was de termined on at all hazards- The smallest man in the crowd, Mr. F. C. Huff, con sented to enter the den, a comrade hold ing him bv the heels as he descended. It was found necessary to go further than was expecte.il, and another man held, or heeled, to speak technically, No. 2. When Mr. lluff got into the den he effcight a dug by the leg, gave a signal. No. 3 pulled No. 2, No. 2 pulled Mr. lluff, Mr. Huff pulled the dog, and the dog pulled a wolf. The hunt ended with good results, and there arc a few less in the large num ber of wolves infesting that country, and killing dojs and sheep daily. CLAPP NORTH, Successors to Edward Fenno.

At the present moment j it is extremely difficult to see the end from the beginning. The following statistics j give an idea of the comparative strength of the French and Prussian armies. The 1 Freneh army in aetive service is classified as follows: stair let31 Infantry Cavalrv 0,7.18 Artillery 36.88* j Engineers 'igV GendarrHes Troop* of the Admin utrat ion 15,066 Total m,m j This force is divided into seven army corps, commanded as follows: Headquarters. Commanders. 1. Paris .Marshal Canrobert. Lille General De L’Admirault. j 3. Nancy Marshal Uutine. 4. Lyons Gen. Count de Palikao. j 5. Tours Marshal d’Hillers. 6. Toulouse General de Govon. 7. Algiers Marshal McMahon. The regular reserve consists also of 400

000 men. In addition to those eight or nine hundred thousand soldiers, there is the Garde Mobile, numbering 600,000 men fillly drilled, who can be made availabe in a very short time. The standing army of Prussia, 8 by 900 majority. The Republicans of Michigan have called a State Convention, to meet at Detroit on the 1st of September. Mayor Shurtlcff, of Boston, has been nominated for Governor of Massachusetts by a Democratic club. The Tribune say a the most alarming fea ture of the Chinese question Is that it threatens to excite an unlimited amount of speech-making. Thirty-seven democrats voted in the House of Representatives Monday, against the validity of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. The York County Republican Conveu I tion is called at Alfred on the 29th inst.— Three candidates for Senator are to be nominated as also candidates for Clerk of Courts, County Attorney, Sheriff, two 1 County Commissioners and County Treas urer. The Bangor Democrat says the adjourned democratic convention to be held at Ban. gor, August 16th, will be the largest as semblage of that party held for years in this State, and that the convention will de eidedly negative the proposition to go into i the republican party for a candidate for 1 Governor. The Gardiner Reporter says that some of the democratic leaders are searching I after one or more “disaffected republicans” I in each county, to sign a call for a “People's Convention” to nominate a candidate for I Governor. The income tax as it now stands must 1 prove entirely satisfactory to the great ma jority of those who were so strenuous in their efforts to prevent its re-enactment by Congress. As agreed upon by both Houses, the tax is now two and a half per cent on the excess of incomes over $2,000, plus the actual house rent paid during the year. This amendment to the former law will exempt all small salaries from taxa tion, and should silence the clamor which has been heard for some time past about the “iniquitous income tax.” It is announced that Speaker Rlaine I will preside at the National Congress on Penitentiary and Reformatory Discipline, and deliver the opening address. The Congress meets on the 11th of October, at Cincinnati. EX Ell A L EE WE. Admiral Farragut has been spending a few days at the Portsmouth navy-yard, the guest of Commodore Ponnock. A. W. Kinglakc, the historian, died in Eng land, Sunday, aged da. The dead body of Lingard, the suiciding New York actor, has been found. Professor Agassiz lias been spending a few days Rmong the lakes of New Hampshire, and his health is much improved. He will spend the summer at Bethlehem, near the White Mountains. The boys will regret to learn that Captain Alavne Reid is a sufferer by a severe and dan gerous malady, and his life can only be saved by a difficult surgical operation. He is now in a hospital in New York for this purpose. George Robbins of Alassacliusetts, sold bis farm for 32000, and got himself robbed of the whole amount in New York last night. The freedom of the city of London lias been tendered to M. Lesseps, the engineer of the Suez Canal. Work has commenced on the Humbolt Col lege at Springfield, Iowa. It is 40x50—three stories high, of gray limestone—cost, $25,000. The Old South Presbyterian Church and Society at Newburyport, Mass., Rev. Charles S. Durfee, pastor, are making preparations to celebrate the Whitefleld Centennial next Sep tember. The editorof an Augusta, (Arkansas) paper saw Jefferson Davis the other day in a hotel at Memphis. He says: “The last time we saw him was down in Georgia, riding thinly by our thin lines, reviewing. And there he sits eating—a gray headed confederate postage stamp. He wasn't insuring lives when we be* lunged to him.” Rear-Admiral John A. Iluhlgren, who lias been unwell for a few days, died very sudden ly in Washington, Tuesday morning. He arose in the morning, and intended going to j breakfast, but fell while engaged in dressing, and soon after expired. His death is supposed to have resulted trom heart disease. His age j was 05. j An unusually large number of Senators and Representatives called upon the President Monday, upon matters of public import. Sen ator Hamlin, Judge Snell, the newly appoint ed police judge of Washington Alark Twain, Judge N. Davis, and the Hon. John Morrissey were among the callers w^io obtained inter view.s with tlie President. General De Peyster, of Trivoli, N. Y., lias I begun a IvjsUtry of the 3d Corps of the army of the Potomac, and is anxious for contributions of material from any source. Gen. Grant, witli bis family, will be off to bis cottage at Long Bracli at soon as the doors of the two Houses ot Congress are closed. During the summer he will probably take a flying trip to the West, leaving his family on the ocean shore. The funeral of James W. Lingard, the actor, was attended by over 4000 persons .Sun day, including Airs. Lingard and family and professional friends. Airs. Lingard was es corted by two policemen, on account of threats made against her by George Lingard, brother of the deceased. Airs. Sisson, wife of Jay Cooke’s former partner, died in Jersey City, leaving property worth six million dollurs. —————————mmm——— COMMESCEMEST AT HOW DO IS COL LEGE. Bri nswick, July 13, 1870.

After sing ing to the tune of St. Martin, the hymn, com-1 luencing. “Let children hear the mighty deeds,” President Harris welcomed the sons of Howdoin to tiieir old home, and to seats in the building not yet finished, hut which he trusted would soon he complete in all its fair proportions, lie thought the Alma Mater was in good health, and trusted that the new-horn sons sent out to-day, thirty in number? would have cause to be proud of her. The President then called upon Governor Chamberlain. The governor said he felt in a somewhat constrained position—his desire was to be at the other end of the hall, among the members of his own class. The relations o sympa thy with the would-be reformers who would do away witli the distinctive studies pursued at our colleges. Hon. C. tV. Goddard of Portland, class of ’44, spoke of the lack ot young men to be come students, and thought perhaps it might be partly owing to the example of the worthy 1 predecessor of the present President! If so, this shows the evil effects of but one sin—and that a sin of omission—long persevered in and not repented of! He hoped it was yet not too late to repent, even at tlte eleventh hour! Hon. S. H. Blake of Bangor, class of ’87, said tlie college ought to enlist the earnest sympathy of business men. as well as educa tors. There should be more faith in our ed ucational institutions and in our State, which is as good a State as the sun shines upon,— abundant in natural wcullli. He wanted to see tlie Memorial llall finished and adorned with paintings and statuary. Hon. Thus. K. Smyth of Memphis, Turn., class of 1850, had couie back after an ab sence of twenty years, to the bosom of his cherished Alma Mater and the home of his boyhood. He had met the sons of Bowdoin everywhere, and had found them true and worthy men. Rev. Ur. McDonald of Princeton, X. J., class of '32, said that although he did not finish liis course here, he had alwuys regard id the institution as his first mother and cherisiied for it the warmest affection. Kev. I>r. ltarbour, of Bangor, said he had first heard of Bowdoin College in his Scottish home when reading a sketch of Longfellow, and he had never moved in the world since w ithout touching a graduate of Bowdoin. Brief and appropriate speeches were also made by Hon. C. A. Washburn, class of ’48, Hon. E. 1*. Weston and others. The speaking was rather of a jolly tone, and everybody seemed to be in a happy mood. Sufficient assurances in the way of money and pledges have been received to make doubly sure the final completion of the Hall. The following degrees were conferred by the President, to-day, beside the A. B. and A. M.’s, in and out of course LL. I)..—Charles M. Cuiustun, Boston; Thomas Drummond, Chicago, D. I).—O.

The concert given last evening by the Ger mania Band, assisted by Mr. Barnabee, Mr. Arhuckle and Miss Ryan, surpassed anything of the kind ever before given at Brunswick. Financially, it was not a success, the crowd being quite limited on account of the inclem ency of the weather. The oration delivered before the Alumni yesterday by Charles D. Warner of Hartford, Conn., is highly spoken of. Ilia subject was ‘•The New Education,” in which be took strong ground against the present course of study in our colleges. The Delta Kappa Epsilon Fraternity hold their annual reunion this evening. The other secret societies, three in number, held theirs last evening. The President’s reception was a brilliant affair. Gov. Chamberlain will give a grand recep tion at bis residence tiiis evening. Class Day exercises take place to-morrow, (Thursday). Domestic Xrtos. The Fourth at Jrfferson. 1'f.ak Jocrral.: Our ears were saluted soon after twelve o’eloek, Sundny night, hv reports of heavy cannon, as well as those of a smaller capacity; also by ringing :»f bells and many other kinds of excitement which is generally carried on as tokens of reception of our great “National Indepen dence Day. At three o’eloek the light of day made its appearance in the eastern horizon. Tlie weather ha l all the appearance of rain, it being very thick and foggy, but at seven o’clock the fog lifted—the clouds broke—the sun shone out. and a cooling southern breeze was very acceptably received throughout the day. The first in order on our programme. was a brilliant display of mounted “Fantas- tics,” which served to enliven the whole crowd, and every countenance seemed to say ••Oh wnat a time I am having!” Then came a military display of mounted troops, com- 1 manded by Oakman (.Hidden, of Whitcfleld then reading of the constitution of the l'. S: j I'ration, by Gen. Janies A. llall. o( Dama riscotta. That wnich was the most interest ng of all, supplying the wants of the “inner nan,” came next. There was horse trotting, which seemed to lie the excitement of the re- naming part of the day. We would say iere that this was, (comparatively speaking) i "Temperance Trot.” Now and then you vould see a poor creature (to be pitied of course) trying to get himself on a grade with ;he brute, but as a general tiling people were •right side up with care.” The proceedings vf the day were interspersed with music fur lished by the Whitcfleld Cornet Band, and Rowell's Band from Jefferson. Thus closed ihe celebration of the Fourth of July at the Jefferson Trotting 1‘ark. Prize Caxdv.

The Home Journal says Monday evening another meeting of the business men of Gard iner was held in reference to the new road to Togus. Mayor Gray, Judge Palmer, R. II. Gardiner. II. B. Hoskins, and others made short speeches, and a general determination was expressed to build it. R. 11. Gardiner, N. 0. Mitchell and F. G. Richards of Gard iner, Jas. Stone of Fartringdale, and Jacob Pcaslee of Pittaton, were appointed a.eom mittce to raise the sum necessary to secure its completion. The Lewiston Journal gays that one Thomas Andrews, residing near Webb’s Mills in Casco, had been having trouble with Ids neighbors, the Messrs. Kdwards. about some cattle. Sunday evening, Miles Kdwards with his father were out looking after the cattle, when Andrews approached them, and delib erately fired a gun loaded w ith pieces of bul lets about the size of large shot—seventeen of which took effect from the hips down to the feet of young Kdwards. Two physicians were summoned, but they were unable to extract any of the shot. The Teachers’Institute for York County, will be held at Nortli Berwick. It will com mence August 1st, and continue five days. Prof. F. A. Alien of Penn., will be present during the whole session; also Sup’t. John son will be present. Win. I’.

Streaked Mountain which lies in Paris and Buekfiehl, is a hard hill to climb, hut when its summit is once attained, the view from it cannot be excelled. Fourteen villages, ponds lakes almost innumerable, and the ocean itself lays spread out before the eye, while the mountain ranges to the north are grand and magnificent. The editor of the Lewiston Journal visited it last week and picked blue berries and raspberries, strawberries, goose berries and eheckerterries. Some boy* were playing with a gun at Mr Samuel (duff’s on the Boom road in Saco on Monday, when one of them loaded it and fir ed at a slab five inches tliiek which was set up at a distance of one hundred yards. The ball went through the plank, passed over a lumber yard, through an orchard, the window of the house of Mr. L. F. Bean, and entered the side of Mrs. Bean. Luckily Mrs. llean sus tained only a slight flesh wound. The whole distance traversed by the hall was over 400 yards. A sad accident occurred in llodgdon on the afternoon of the 4th. A number of boys were wimming in the pond above the mills, and amusing themselves by climbing into a boat and jumping out. After they had left the water, and wi re dressing themselves, it was noticed that one of their number, a son of Samuel K. Stetson, was missing. The alarm was immediately given, and search was made during the night, but without success. On Tuesday the water w as drawn off, and early Wednesday morning the body w as discovered at the foot of the slip. A gentleman in Boston who had taken his seat in the Boston and Maine train for Port land a few days since, was suddenly and un accountably impresaed that something would happen to the train tie was on hoard of. So strong did this feeling take hold of him that lie left the ears and hastened to the Eastern depot and took the train there which came through all safe. So did the other train! Thomas Holt.

Dailj Jtrnnrftrr Journal. Tlie Quakers in Norway are often call ed upon to suffer for their principles Two English Friends, who have just returned from the country, say they found young men in prison at Chnstianennd for refus ing to Hoar arms. Before leave could be given to see them, a stijmlation was made that nothing .most be said which would teud to confirm the prisoners in their con victions. The Quakers have a small following in Norwav, chiefly at Stavanger. It arose from the circumstance that certain Nor wegian prisoners in England, during the wars with Napoleon, were visited by some Quakers, who showed them so tnuen kind ness that when the prisoners returned homo thev took their benefactors' religion j with them, it is in Norway that somneli j importance is attached to the rite ol eon- j tirmation. It is the passport to all employ ment* in civil life. No one who has not been confirmed can hold any public office. So it goes hard with the Quakers. As the ant season i- at hand, house-1 wives and others who are troubled with them, may probably use the following trap to advantage Procure a large sponge, wash it well and press it dry which will leave the cells quite open then sprinkle over it some fine sugar and place it where the ants are the most troublesome. They will soon collect upon the sponge and take up their alxxle in the cells. It is only ne oessary to dip the sponge in boiling hot water,' which will wash them out dead. Put on more sugar and set the trap for a new haul. The process will soon clear the house of every ant. The cavilings of some men on the death of Charles Dickens, call to mind a pass age in Lewes’ life of Goethe At a din ner party certain pietists were throwiug up their eyes and regretting that Goethe had not more purely devoted himself to the service of Christian truth! &c. Car lyle sat grim, omuiously silent, till at last, in his slow, emphatic way, he said: “iieine Herren, did you ever hear of the story of that man who vilified the sun be cause it would not light his cigar To Purify Cistern Water.— Let the sixmt run to the bottom of the cistern. You will then have new water every time it rains, the old water will be buoyed or home up, and throw off all old water and give entirely new. if you have any doubt of this, fill 's pail w ith water, run a tube to the bottom of it and by means of a tun nel turn more water into it by way of the tube, and you will see that the water you turn into the tube will go to the button of the pail, and the water you put in first will be thrown oft'.—Saturday Punt. kEAXEBEC SAVINGS BA\k!

But yesterday re lief came through the effect of your “Buchu.” A stone passed mv bladder about the size of a large pea, and I now feel perfectly well and entirely free from the pain that I have suffered with “so hard.” I attribute my cure to your medicine entirely, and would recommend all persons similarly affected to trv it. I have great faith in its curative powers. Yours truly, THOMAS J. BENNETT. REFERS TO Rev. WILLIAM COGSWELL, Westport, Conn. J. L. G. CANNON, Druggist, Westport, Conn. II. B.

Editor Cosmopeite: I desire, as an unsolicited tribute to the merits of Helmbold's Ihiehu, and for j the bcucflt of those similarly afflicted as myself, to i say that after consulting many eminent physicians, i and trying nearly all the best advertised remedies, ig the vain hope of finding relief from aggrivated kidney and bladder diseases, from which I have suffered excessively for many years, good fortune finally suggested to me Helmbold’s Bm hu. which I commenced using with little faith, ami no apparent beneficial results for about a mouth. At the expir ation of that time, however. 1 thought I commenced i to experience slight relief, which encouraged me to I persevere in its use, and now, at the expiration of 1 four months, although 1 am an infirm old man, nearly 78 years of age, and consequently medicines cannot be’expected to favorably affect me as they I otherwise would, 1 have found’ such unspeakable 1 relief and permanent benefit from Mr. Kelnibohrs valuable discovery, that 1 feel 1 ought to publicly i record the fact, as an acknowledgement to him and a valuable suggestion to the public.

I3t bold—Dear Sir: It Is with much pleasure that I write you upon facts respecting my self. I do not know hardly how to express my.-efl. 1 have been for the last ten or twelve years the greatest sufferer man could be ami live; but more j sometimes than others. The complaint was the "Kidneys” and "Bladder.” 1 have been sometimes lrom 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, I may say, by the quart, also liq uored medicines, hut found no relief from auv, ami got worse the last six months. I was so that f could scarcely get about. 1 could not rest night or day. It would soon have been "all up” with me if I had not seen your advertisement in "The Berkshire Courier” headed “Kidneys.” 1 read it through and thought I would try it. 1 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 I had takeu the first bottle I felt had; but 1 finished it and I got another. By the time I took half of the second I still got worse (apparently). When 1 walked it seemed as if my right kidney was falling from its place, and I felt really bad. I felt so, before I had finished the second, that 1 had made up my mind it was of no use trying any more—and all this time the "Buchu” was doing its work, hut 1 did not know it; so I gaVe it up ami went to Hartford on .Saturday to see one of the best doctors in the city, lie said it was the neck of the bladder, and I should have to undergo an operation. He gave me med- j iolne, and 1 went home quite downhearted. On j Sunday I was unable to go to church. 1 had not taken any ot his medicine, hut on my return contin ued using the "Buchu,” and in the afternoon 1 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 1 took the vessel it was the same as turning a faucet and stoppiug it off again It was so for three times, and the third time there was something came through the passage ami struck against the side of the vessel. 1 examined it, and it is the ugliest stone or gravel you ever saw, cov ered over with little peices widen eollcted together, it looks the color of a mud turtle, and is as hard ns a flint. Ho you see the “Buchu” w as doing its work ulthongh I was feeling so badly. I procured an other bottle thinking their might be some more be hind, hut since that lias passed, which is eight weeks ago last Sunday, I have been ns well ns ever J was in mylife. I have the stone securely wrapped and those who have Heen it in this place are sur prised. I cannot tell you all, but this is a true story of mv case, and you are welcome to make such use of my name as you think proper. I am pretty weft known in Berkshire; also in Connecticut. The ad vertisement saved me. Why not publish more? The Springfield Republican is a wide-spread paper. If any one wishes to see this wonder, they ean do so. f could write all day, but think I have said 1 enough this time, so I remain vour ever well wisher KDWAKDL.

Helmboi.d—Dear Sir: In regard to the question asked me as to my opinion about Bu elm. 1 would say I have used and sold the article in various forms for the past thirty years. 1 do not think there is any form or preparation of it I have not used, or known to tie used, in the various diseases where such medicate agent would be indicated. 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 ray Judgment, is warranted by the facts. I have seen and used, as before stated, everv form of Buchu—the powdered leaves, tincture, fluid ex tracts—and I am not congnizant of anv preparation of that plant at all equal to yours. Twelve years’ exjiericnce ought. I think, to give me the light to judge of iu merits; and, without prejudice or par tiality. I give yours precedence over ull others. I value your Buchu for its effects on patients. I have cured with it, and seen cured with it. more diseases of the bladder and kidneys than 1 have ever seen cured with any other Buchu or any other proprietary compound of whatever name.

Helmbold, Druggist—Dear Sir: i have been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with gravel, bladder and kidney affections, during which time 1 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 physican in regard to using your EqtractiBuchu. 1 did this because I had used all kinds of adver tised remedies anil had found them worthless, and some quite injurious; in fact, I despaired of ever getting well, aud 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 buenii, cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and mv phys ician as an excellent combination and with his ad vice, after an examination of the article an l con sulting again with the druggist, I concluded to try it. I commenced to use it about eight months ago, \t which time 1 vas confined to my room. From the first bottle I was astonished at the ben- j ‘final effect, and after using it three weeks was ible to walk out. I felt much like writing to yon a full statement of my ease at the time, but thought ny improvement might only be temporary, and herefore concluded to defer, and see it it would •fleet a perfect cure, knowing that it would be ol greater value to you and more satisfactory to me. I am now able to report that a cure is effected, lifter using the remedy for live months. I hate not iised any uow for three months, and leel as well in all respects as I ever did. Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor, a nice tonic and in vigorator of the system. 1 do not mean to be without it whenever occasion may require its use on such affections. M.
