We learn that those recruits who hare been rejected by the medical examiners of late, com plain that the parties making the examination are too rigid; we do not pretend to judge of the present standard, but all accounts concur in stating, that heretofore this examination of recruits has not beeu sufficiently rigid. The Sanitary Commission have lately addressed an .able communication to dhe President in this Tgatter, from which wc make the following ex Tlie cSiylcss and superficial medical inspec tion of rectM*** made at least twenty-five per cent, of the vMputcc army raised last year not only utterly usel#^" but a positive incumbrance and cmbarrassinemV?}l*ug our hospitals with invalids aud the whole country with exagger ated notions of the dang5." »f war that now seriously retard the recnm*n8 01 *he new levies we so urgently need.

Each of these men cost the nation a certain amount of money, amounting in the aggregate to millions of dollars. Not one of them was able, however well disposed, to en dure a week’s hardship or render the nation a dollar’s worth of effective service in the find. Some regiments left ten per cent, of their men in hospitals on the road, before they retched the seat of war. No national crisis ca> excuse the recruiting of such material.

A large percentage of the disease and weak ness of our armies up to the present time, (in other words, the waste of many millions of our nat ional resources) has been due to the inex perience of medical and military officers alike, as to the peculiar dangers and exposures that surround the soldier in camp, and on the march, and which render the money the nation has ex pended in putting him into the field a far more precarious investment than it would be were he kept under strict subjection to sanitary laws.

Windham, Aag. 8,1881. alUfcwtd A m—with Mu Invitee Enropeu In tervention, A short time since, when the Press referred in terms of rehake to the sympathizers with se cession in the town of Brunswick, the editor ofthe paper in that place took up the cudgels with little regard to the ordinary rules of pro priety, and den on need us for slandering so loy al a people as Ids fellow-citizens. To that ed itor we wish to commend a feet of history that has recently transpired on the British side of the Atlantic. Many intelligent shipowners and shipmasters in Maine, will remember Wm. S. Lindsay, the conceited, aelf-inflated member of Parliament, “the member from Sunderland,” who, a few years since visited this country, and spent a few weeks among the shipowners, laboring to bring them into his view, that our coast-wise trade should be opened to the vessels of John Ball. Lindsay himself U largely interested in the class of vessels that would take advantage of such a commercial regulation, and hence the “disinterestedness” of his mission. He was doubtless at that time fugling with his eye on the expected Southern Confederacy, which he saw rising as the storm rises, not so much by his own keen discernment as by the famil iar intercourse he had enjoyed with the “in fernal spirits” at the bottom of the then brew ing rebellion. Lindsay went home, aud, after having been petted, and treated confidentially by oar commercial men, he was one of the first to reveal sympathy iu Parliament for the Southern traitors, and to move with reference t/i Pornfm!vtnnr flin inrlimoiidofioo nf t)io roKn 1 government. For the gratification of his own base avarice and to give him advantages over our commercial men, he would see the Amer ican Union divided into fragments. Wei), this Mr. Lindsay recently gave an air ing In Parliament to his rebel sympathies, in which he declared that re-union was hopeless,” said “be desired to see the South separated from the North,in the interest of this country,” |Eng!and.] He said “they all knew the South would enter into free trade relations with us," [England.] In this he shows that he favors disunion in order to secure commercial ad vantages from the South, which he labored to secure in another way when he was so mod estly traveling through our commercial towns and receiving the hospitality of our citizens. He is one of the deadliest enemies of our free Institutions, of our government, and of the Commercial interests of the North, to be found on the English side of the Atlantic; just fitted to be the tool and mouthpiece of southern reb els in their effort* to get at the ear of the Eng lish public. Now for the “fact of history.” After infa mously maligning the free North by represent ing it as a land of lawlessness and mobs, where “men ol position, property, and Intelligence “dare not express an opinion because mob law “reigned supreme,” in order to prove that the mediation of England was desired by the bet ter class of American citizens, he read part of a letter which he had received from New York, and which was dated July 4. The writer said: Will England hesitate any longer to offer meditation Why, if she had in the first month of the war forcibly interfered, no greater ill feeling could have been shown towards her than huM been shown under her magnanimous forbearance. Nor need a war be feared if you recognize the South, etc., etc. Jfe await her action in dismay. “Such,” said Lindsay, “are the sentiments of the [American] people.” He then said he “had received another letter from Brunswick, in the State of Maine, dated also on the 4th o( this month, [July] In which the writer, a man of strong Union feeling (1) said he saw now the war was hopeless, and IlE TRUSTED THE POWERS OF EUROPE WOULD OFFER MEDIATION.” As might he. expected, no small degree of in dignation is (hit in Brunswick to think one of their citizens, falsely assuming to be a Union man, is thus playing into the hands of seces sion, and it will be a very uncomfortable place for him if he should be found out. Suspicion points to the traitorous wretch who stands ready to invite intervention and war from Eng land. and we have heard his name hinted, but much as we despise such an ingrate, in the a!> sence of the most indubitable testimony we would not whisper the suspicious to any one. Gentlemen of Brunswick, of the highest re spectability, and men of so much moral and Christian character that it has never been as sailed, have requested us to say that a reward of fire cents and six feet of hemp will be given to know his name beyond the possibility of doubt. He had better keep quiet or skedad dle. __ [From our own Correnpondent.) Letter from the State Capital. Regiments Full—Details of draft—Quota of Maine—Order to Militia Sergeants—Col. Rust—Appointments. ArousTA, Aug. 11,1862. The first four new regiments are all full, offi cered, and ready to move to the scat of war so soon as the Government shall send pay masters. After they are paid off, the Governor can send the five new regiments at the rate of one a day. Gov. Washburn yesterday received full re gulations and details for a draft, for 9 months’ men. The quota assigned to Maine is nine thousand six hundred and nine men. The regiments and companies are to be organized, and number and rank of officers are the same as with volunteers. Regimental officers will be selected in accordance with State laws.— Gov. Washburn has asked the authorities at Washington, by telegraph, that cities and towns may raise this proportion of the quota by bounties to volunteers, to be received as drafted men. and subject to the rules and re gulations of drafted men. It is expected such permission will at once be granted. There are to be military commandants ap pointed by the Governor, at the several places of rendezvous, of which there will be three in this State, viz: Bangor, Augusta and Port land. The Adjutant General is this morning Issu ing orders to the Sergeants of the enrolled militia, to revise their lists and to place upon them all male citizens between tlie ages of eighteen anil forty-five, without reference to disability, such questions to lie determined by Surgeons hereafter to be appointed. Persons mentioned in the Adjutant General's circular of March 31st, are, of course, exempted. These are chiefly officials. Col. J. D. Rust, of the 8th regiment, though not fuily recovered, leaves this morning to re join his regiment at Port Poyal. The following persons have been commis sioned since my last: Wm. E. Brooks, Waterville, 1st Lieut Co. E, 16th regt. Wm. A. Stearns, Waterville, 2d Lieut. Co. E, 16th regt A. Waldo Wildes, Skowhegan, Colonel 16th regiment Augustus B. Farnbam, Bangor, Maj or 16th regiment. The two last offirers, colonel and major, can not, by regulation, be commissioned until their regiment is full and mustered into the U. S. service. Lieut Col. Tilden, of the 16th, re ceived his commission before leaving his old regiment the 2d, inasmuch as, by regulation, an officer holding a commission in one regi ment cauuot be transferred to another until lie shall have received his commission for the new position. Skirmisher. From our Regular Correspondent. Letter from Waterville. Waterville, Ang. 11,1862. To the Editors of the Portlanil Press: Commencement day at “Old Waterville” is already one step upon us, although the exer cises of Commencement proper do not occur uutil next Wednesday. The advent of Commencement is as easily foretold as the engine’s whistle announces the coming train. Our quiet little town, which never looked more lovely than at present, is being filled with what may be termed annual faces,to wit: those who come once a yenr from far and near to gather again around the fes tive board of their “aimer mater.” Judges, Congressmen, Governors, A. M.’s, A. B.’s M. D.’s LL. D.’s, and a large installment of Baptist clergymen (or as the students who pay the dinner bills, irreverently call them “Sappers and Miners,”) all come up to the feast of the l>assover in such numbers, that one would sup pose the temple of Janus to be closed for a sea son. The exercises this year promise to be unu sually interesting. Neither trouble or expense have been spared to make them so. The grad uating class numbers 25. The Governor and Staff. Vice President Hamlin, Senator Morrill, the Governor in pro spectu and other dignitaries both home made mid nro 1 w» h«>ri> Last year Geu. liutler promised to be here, but he lias deferred his visit until he comes via Mississippi River. He was a graduate of the class of '38. At that time this institution was a manual college, and liutler paid his way by making chairs, but it is said he broke twice as many as he made. The following anecdote of the Gen. illustrates his modim operaudi in college, and Is vouched for by his boarding mistress, a venerable lady still residing here. The day on which Hen graduated, his Imarding mistress had invited some special Mends to dine with her, and for this private table, had roastedapig and turkey and carefully deposited them in a nook in the cellar. Hen Is'ing a favorite with her,she took him into the cellar, and exhibited to his crook ed eyes the fattened pig and concomitants, all of which Hen pronounced splendid, and at the same time, he received an invitation to dine at this private table, which was accepted most cordially. That night Ben called into his room some half a dozen of his mates, and told them that they were about to separate, and the next day might be the last they would ever be together, and that he proposed to give a supper, and had ordered a roast pig and a turkey for the occa sion, and invited them to coine to his room at eleven o’clock, which invitation was accepted. At about ten o’clock that night, Ben was mak ing liis way slyly through the avenues of the college grounds to the old mansion house.— Tlie clouds of night veiled him from sight as he entered the cellar window and stood over his booty, and while his good matron was wrapt in sweet slumbers, and having celestial dreams of the good time coming, Hen cau tiously emerged from this depot of eatibles with swine under one arm mid fowl under the other, which werr soon deposited in his room; another trip brought a large armament of cakes, pies, &e. Suffice it to say, there w as a great time in Ben’s room that night, and that he appeared the next day at. liis matron’s, promptly at the appointed time, and no one regretted more than he the loss of the dinner, or was more profuse of liis contempt of the thief. To-day occur the exercises of class-day, and a prize declamation by the Junior Class, of which 1 will give you au account to-morrow. A town meeting is to be called here to pay a bounty to our quota of the second 300,000.— We propose to raise our quota without draft, which the Governor says we cau do, and the men be in for only nine months. Fuller. From our Regular Correspondent. Letter from the Seventh Maine Regiment. Head Quartehs 7th Me. Vols., I Aug. 6th, 1802. A splendid engagement took place at Mal vern Hill yesterday. The rel>els were driven, but not without losing quite a number of pris oners. The force engaged on our side was Hooker’s Division. A cavalry scout was also sent out and captured 23 prisoners. Our Division is under marching orders, to lie ready to move at a moment’s notice, with two days cooked rations. The sick list of the regiment is on the de crease, being 2ti less to-day than it was the 4th Inst Meu return from the hospitals about as fast as they are sent away. The whole number present to-day Is 530. Tito order has been received to make a de tail for the recruiting service, and the detail will be made at once. All has been quiet to day. Aroostook.

The New Gymnastics fob Men, Women, and children, with a translation of Professor Kloss's Dumb-hell Instructor, Ac.; by Dio Lewis, M. I)., illustrated. Boston: Ticknor A Fields, 1802. Here is a book of practical character, suited to the wants of those who lack the will or the courage to enter into the gymnastic exercises of the camp. It is a book of 275 pages, con taining more than three hundred illustrations. It is said to be the most satisfactory hand-book of physical training that lias yet been issued from the press. Well said Cicero, “By no oth er way can men approach nearer to the gods than by conferring health on men.” Dr. Lew is dedicates his liook to the girls and boys of America, whose physical health has been the study of his life, nis precepts and practice will never be forgotten, when ouce learned from the admirable pages o( his New Gymnas tic, and we rejoice that so able a champion of beauty and vigor among his brothers and sis ters of America has found time to send out this capital book. Ticknor A Fields publish It for one dollar, and we understand they offer it at this low price that it may go into extensive circulation everywhere. For sale in this city by Hall L.

Railroad Fares and Travel.—Since the rates of fare between the eastern towns and Boston have been raised balf-a-dollur, the Augusta Farmer has intimated that it was done for speculative ptir|K>ses by the Maine roads, they charging tlfty rents additional, and only paying ten cents to the Ibis ton road.— Thisjis not so. True, the Boston roads have in creased its fare between this city and Boston only ten cents, hut all the eastern roads have to pay fifty cents more on thvir passengers, and this tiecause the aggregate falling off in the passengers w hich they send over the Bos ton road, with the national tax upon passen gers, requires this extra charge—at least, the managers of the Boston roads so decide—to compensate them for this portion of their travel. They have their own reasons for not advancing any more upon the travel from this city. But while the aggregate number of pas sengers brought to the Boston load by all the the eastern roads has fallen off, the figures show that, for the four months last past— March, April, May and June—the Ken. A Port, road has delivered to the Boston road 1715 more passengers than in the correspond ing months of lut still, its passengers are raised upon because impartiality with the eastern roads must be observed. Indeed, we are informed that the Ken. A Port, road is .11 :_ A _ a I I’ ll 1* ability, with its present rolling stock, ami one would be surprised to see the large amount of merchandise daily sent from this city over that road, by its freight trains.

The Twentieth Reoiment.—Wc had the pleasure of inectingour friend Major Gii.more of the 20th Regiment, last evening.

F (Potter of Wisconsin, the man famed lor hacking down Pryor, the young Virginia hotspur, was in the early train yes terday, from Augusta for Boston. £3f”The 10th regiment, at Bath, is made up of as fine a body of ineu as have yet been seen in any Maine Regiment. They createno more trouble for the police than would a conference of clergymen. Last Sabbath religious servic es were held ou the field, in the forenoon, and a sermon was preached by Rev. II. N, liugg. y At the animal examination, on Friday last, of candidates for admission to the Fresh men class, at Bowdoin, 30 young gentlemen much more than ltasted upon the right of Gen. Crawford, and fronting a dense timber w here the rets-1 infantry were posted. Gen. Banks directed the operations. (Jen. Geary’s brigade had the advance; it con sisted of tiie 5th, 7th and gUlli Ohio, gsth Pa., Snapp’s battery. The rebels opened a npisket ry tire on them from the sides and front, aided by batteries. The batteries on the mountain also kept up a most terrific lire, but the feder al troops never faltered or even winced. At 0 1-g o’clock the battle became general, artillery reply ing to artillery and infantry to infantry, and desperation was the order of the day. The light continued till darkness. I have witnessed many battles during this war, but I have seen none w here the tenacious obstinacy of the American character w as so fully display ed. Our troops fought with the valor of veter ans. No sooner did a volley of musketry or a discharge of artillery mow down the ranks of a regiment than tile gaps were closed up and anew front presented. Regiment vied with regimeut, and brigade with brigade, in deeds of valor, and few instances indeed were there wjjere even individuals faltered. With the iXfkncss the firing of musketry ceased, but the aftillery upon the mountain kept up a random tire until midnight. At dark our troops with drew to a small copse of wood about half a mile to tiie rear of the lirst position, where they were joined by the corps of McDowell and Sigcl, w ho formed in the rear. At Si o’clk, hungry and w earied, the troops of Gen. Banks were relieved by a portion of Gen. McDowell’s command, and fell back half a mile, resting on their arms ill a pleasant clover field. The night was unusually lustrous, and all promi nent objects were as plainly distinguished as i in bright iluylight. Gen. Crawford's brigade, which laid borne tlie brunt of the light, threw themselves upon the moist grass. Some of the men incautiously made tires, and thus reveal ing our position to the enemy, they commenc i ed shelling us. Their firing was generally ex eellent, the shells bursting among the trains, ambulances and horses, soon compelling our soldiers to move hack toward Culpepper. A panic was very near the occasion, as tlie regi ments took to (heir heels to get out of range, and seeing so many retreating, others that had not reached the field started to run, and soon the roads were crowded with frightened peo ple, who added to the existing misfortunes by telling wild stories of a repulse, loss and dis comfiture. The provost guard was thrown across the roads mid fields, stopping stragglers and suffering only the unarmed to pass. The wounded came in on foot in great numbers, and ambulances were promptly on the spot to carry oil' those unable to walk. Most of our wounded are wounded in the lower limbs. Alajut 4 o’clock Gen. Pope and staff went on tlie Held, and were greeted with vociferous cheers. The General rode to tlie extreme front in the thickest of the tight, and came near getting into a rebel ambuscade, but discovered his danger in time to avoid it. We took sev eral rebel prisoners. It is certain that tlie re- bel Gen. Winder is killed. Jackson was slight ly wounded iu the hand. Gen. Saxton is mor tally wounded. Rebel force engaged in the battle was from 40,DUO to 50,000. lien. Augurs' wound is not dangerous; it is a flesh wound in tlie hip. Gen. Geary was severely wounded iu the arm. Gen. Banks had his horse killed un der him, as did also the Chief of Gen. Pope's staff. Col. Kuggles. Large numbers of hospit al tents and stores were sent from Washington to-day to the scene of action. Tlie wounded were sent to Washington. Two pieces of ar tillery and a large number of small arms were captured from the enemy. Tlie Times'special Washington dispatch says Gov. Sprague was roused this morning at day break by a special messenger, and started im mediately for Gen. Biirnshle's army. It is be lieved that Gens. Burnside and Pope were iu some way to co-operate, and this sudden send ing for Gov. Sprague Is interpreted as indicat ing speedy activity. 125 prisoners have arriv ed from Gen. Pope's army. A part of them were taken in Friday’s skirmish at Raccoon Ford, on tlie Rappidan. Matters are not atag nating at Fredericksburg by any means. Later.—Sunday, 11.30 P. M.—It is now con sidered certain that there has been heavy Hght iug ut Gordonsvllle on Saturday allrrnoon,and perhaps to-day. Two trains of cars left Alex andria for tlie wounded. Advices from other quarters indicate that our movement has not been confined to Gen. Pope’s army alone. Gen. Pope is too busy to send reports. Ilcnsox, Mo., August 9. Additional particulars of the fight between Col. McMiH'a command and Porter’s guerillas at Kirksville some days since, have been re ceived here. 128 dead bodies were found on the field ami buried. Their eutire loss could not have been less than 300. It is intimated on reliable authority that fully 2000of Porter’s gang have deserted him and are scattered, sev eral hundred of them being prisoners. The balance are rapidly dwindling, pursued by Col. McMills' troops in four columns. The federal loss was 8 killed and 25 wounded. New York, August 11.

Fortress Monroe, August 9. The remains of the late Dr. Dennison, who was drowned some two week ago in James Klver, has been recovered. The sick and wounded Union soldiers are being moved away from the army of the Po tomac. The transport State of Maine came down from Harrison’s Landing this morning with 300 sick, and 40 wounded soldiers. They go direct to Philadelphia. The transport Louisiana also arrived with 300 mostly sick, from the same place. They are also bound for Philadelphia. There are now at Fortress Monroe alsiut 500 sick and wounded soldiers on transports, all going to different places North, where they ran lie bet ter cared for than in the army hospitals. It is understood that the army hospitals of the Potomac are to be immediately cleared out of all the sick ami wounded. They make a very short stay at this place, and consequently It is quite impossible to obtain all their names; therefore the publication will be deferred until they reach tbeir several destinations.

More Exasperation—“Our men,” writes a surgeon connected with the fifty-second regi ment Indiana volunteers, "have killed many i blood-hounds, valued at $100 apiece. These dogs, kept to hunt runaway negroes, were put alter some of our men, and hence their slaugh ter.” Is it “policy” to kill an animal so valuable to the Southern gentleman to keep his slaves in order?

J^”Tlie editor of the Hallowed Courier, who has been calling for “more light and less sentiment,” but still refuses to fight himself, says he “is waiting” for us to go ahead. This waiting for somebody else Is just what has proved the greatest incubus upon the loyal cause. We have never kuowu any good to come of your “waiting” men. They wait till somebody else has averted the danger, and then growl at the manner in which it lias been done. For our part we have waited for nobody, but since the first gun at Sumter we have been fighting the rebels—if not in Virginia, at least in Maine. Come, Newman, wait no longer. JjyThe Hallowed Courier slightly mistakes in saying “Gilmau of the Press” proposed to obey the young lady’s advice and “rush to arms, “provided she was pretty.” Gilmau is, unfortunately, no “lady’s man.” It is the hand some editor of the Press who attends to that business. jy Dr. Storrs told of a returned prisoner, who, having suffered the indignities of rebel ladies of the South, thanked God that the dev il was not a woman. This has been circulated at the expense of the “sex,” as though, if the devil had been a woman, he would have been less amiable than be now is. This does vio lence to the soldier’s meaning. No soldier is so ungallant as that. He was simply thankful that, the devil not being a woman, a crop of young devils whs not so likely to be scattered over the earth. jy-One of those smoking ears on the K. P. R. R., js completed, and was run over the road for the first time last Saturday. It is ad mirably planned and finished, having the Post Office room in one end, and a wash-room, and other conveniences in the other, and is the best car, for its purposes, we have seen. The energetic Superintendent, Mr. Cushman, in forms us that the other one will he ready to run in a short time. This road Is now doing a large business, and is increasing in |iopular es timation under the admirable management of Mr. Cushman. The First Sopth Carolina Negro Reg iment.—Tliis regiment, organized at Hilton Head, by Gen. Hunter, has been placed under the command of Captain Fessenden, who is to act as its Colonel. He is a young man, and, son of Senator Kesseuden of Maine. The reg iment originally numbered a little upward of seven hundred; after they had been drilled for a month they were sifted; some three hundred were discharged, and sent home; some on ac count of physical disability, others on account fo their unwillingness to remain in the service, and others for various disqualifying causes. The corps now numliers about four hundred and fifty, divided into seven companies. These companies are officered by non-commissioned officers, detailed (with their own consent) from various regiments in the department.— The office of First or Orderly Sergeant, is filled in tke same manner, hut the otlier Ser geants and the Corporals are blacks. Soi-thkbn Deception. It is stated in Wall Street that Gov. Moore,of Louisiana, has sold his ci op of sugar to a “Liucolnite’’ house in New York, through an agent iu New Or leans; and it is believed the sale lias been con summated since the issue of the Governor’s famous proclamation, threatening with death any one w ho should hold communication with the “ruthless invaders.” Comment is unneces sary. Negroes Coming.—A correspondent of the World, with Gen. Pope’s army, says: Squads of negroes are constantly pouring into the camps. They come from every direc tion, and many of them have travelled incred ible distances. Some have come all the way from Alabama. 1 have tried in vain to draw out from most of them the purpose which act uated them to make their escape. Scarcely a darkey of them has formed any definite notion of what is to become of them. He is ready for anything, and lays aside all solicitude as soon as he gets inside the lines. Intervention.—“Malakoff” the Paris cor respondent of the New York Times, says em phatically in his letter of July 25th, that fear of French intervention in American affairs have not a shadow of a prospect of realization unless brought about by some collateral ques tion. such as that ol Mexico. The tone of the French papers lias been materially smoothed down. Hiratn A. Turner of Bath, of Co. A, 3d Maine Regiment, who was wounded at tile battle near Richmond, and has since been sick in tlie hospital at Baltimore, arrived home on •Saturday. ZW“ The Oxford Democrat, whose editor was a prominent candidate for Governor in the Republican Convention, magnanimously says: While we shall do evervthing in our power to effect the election of Jir. Coburn, God for bid we should say a single word agninst the gallant Jameson. Aside from party connec tions and relations, we could most cheerfully give him our vote. Z3T~ Bro- Tenney speaks of the hay still standing, the farmers not being able to procure help to cut it. “All flesh is”—hay! How will that do for an improved reading of the sacred text? The armory in Springfield, Massachu setts, makes 14,000 stand of arms a month. In a short time that establishment, with the five private shops in operation there will lie able to manufacture 35,000 guns per month. Cy All lazy people who prefer dirt and sweatjto cleanliness, will thank Dr. Hall of the Journal of Health, for his argument against frequent bathing, and for urging the injurious effects upon the cuticle of frequent applica tions of soap and soft water.

_ MISCELLANY. The Retired Tailor. Mr. Chester, a tailor, having accumulated a competency at his trade, determined to throw away his shears and bodkin, and spend the re mainder of his life upon a farm. He purchased several hundred acres ol land inTonawamia; and there was a fishing ground on the estate. Mr. Chester was delighted with his new occu pation, and he devoted his best efforts with un tiring zeal to farming and fishing. Being very deaf, he often made ludicrous blunders, which excited the mirthfulncss of his friends and cus tomers. His graceful and beautiful daughter was at boarding-school at the time her father purchased the farm. She had a lover, and promised to marry, him provided he could ob tain the consent of her parent The young man travelled west as fast as the railway would lake him in that direction. On the morning after his arrival he was strolling along the banks of the creek that sweeps through the village of Tonawauda, when he met a plain old gentleman drsssed in homespun, and inquired of him “if the railway carriages had commenced running to the Kalis yet?” “Principally pike and mullet,” said he. “You misunderstand me,” continued the young man. “1 merely wish to know if the trains have commenced their trips to the Falls of Niagara, and what the fare is “From three to four cents a pound.” “Do you intend to insult me?” ‘,1 will let you have a large quantity for two cents.” “I have a good mind to give you a caning for your impertinence.” “Well, if you do not choose to give it I know who will.” “I should like to know if there are any more such fools as you are in the town of Tona wanda.” “We shall make another haul in the morn ing, before daylight” At this instant auothcr gentleman made his appearance, and the stranger related his griev ance to him. He said: “I have been asking this old man a few civil questions, and he has given me the most im prtinent answers.” “Oh, he is deaf!” exclaimed the third party. “He is deaf as a post; but he is a very fine oid gentleman—one of the most influential and respectable men in the county, indeed. He is not impertinent. He deals in fish somewhat, and so do L It is possible he may think that I am endeavoring to undersell him; will you, therefore, do me the favor to write your ques tion on a scrap of paper, and save me from suspicion, and satisfy yourself in regard to the old gentleman’s politeuess.” The young man commenced writing, when the old farmer-fisherman interrnpted him with the remark: JI will not take a note of hand; cash on the nail, or no trade.” “He is preparing a note," said the last comer. “Call me a brute, do you?” exclaimed Mr. Chester; “then take that!” and, suiting the actiou to the word, he dealt him a blow straight from tbe shoulder, which prostrated him “flat as a flounder.” uy mis tune me note wa.« nnisneci, ana the old gentleman discovered his mistake—and about this time the young stranger made the discovery that he had been picking a quarrel with his prospective father-in-law. Mr. Chester made an apology, and invited both parties to go over to his house to dine. The front door commanded a view of a mead ow in which a cow was feeding; and while Mr. Chester was looking in that direction, the youthful lover, whose heart was overflowing with emotion, commenced the task which he came such a long distance to perform. •‘1 am acquainted with your daughter,” said he, in a loud tone. “She is a fine beast,” remarked the old gen tleman, looking at the cow. “Your daughter!” screamed the young man, “I have the honor to be well acquainted with her.” “She is a noble animal,” was the response. “Confound the old cow!” said the young man, in a whisper, “X wish she was out of sight. I was speaking about your amiable and accomplished daughter!” “She is very kind, indeed; never breaks down the feuces, never kicks over the pail, never strays away like other brutes I have.” “You don’t understand me, sir! I was speaking of your daughter at the boarding “No, I never put a board on her face; she never does any mischief at all.” “Your daughter,” shouted the voung man, frantic with excitement. “Did you say I ought to?” “No, airl 1 was speaking of yonr daughter —the young lady away from home!” “Oh, yes, I have plenty of room; but I think ahe is too old to keep much longer. To tell you the truth, I have made up my mind to shut her up in the stable, and feed her on chop •tuff a few weeks.” “Great heavens 1" remarked the young man, to himself. “What shall I do? This deafness will be the death of me! I will try once more, and If this effort foils, I will resort to pencil and paper again. I should like to say a word to you respecting your daughter “I shall let the butcher have her by-and-by, If he will give me my price,” said the old man, with emphasis. A» a last resort the young man used his pen cil and paper, showed his letters of introduc tion, which were from men whose opinion was good authority on the delicate question on the tapis. After a little cross-questioning, and a little hesitation, the old gentlemen gave his consent; and when the parties were married, he declared it was the best haul he had made in all his life.

That for Children Cutting Teeth, if troubled with Diarrhosa or any irregularities of the bowels, all oth er remedies are insignificant, as compared with CLEM’S SUMMER CURE. That for Children troubled with Canker in month or stomach, or mothers suffering from uursing sore mouth, a safe and speedy cure is effected by the use of CLEM’S SUMMER CURE. That for Coughs, Hoarseness and Bronchial affect ions. there is no remody extant that so universally affords relief as HOWES' COUGH PILLS. That for a Tightness or Wheezing in the Chest, Pains in the side, or a long standing Hack, the best rciueuy is HOWE’S COUGH TILLS. That as an expectorant and ameliorating agent in cases of Phthisic, Whooping Cough, and Confirmed Consumption, the public have already rendered their united verdict in favor of HOWES’ COUGH PILLS. CLEM'S SUMMER CURE is a pleasant, agrecablo decoction of Roots and Barks, and contains not a particle of OPIUM or I>ruo of any sort. It always does good, and never docs harm.
