Monday Morning, Oct. 23,1865. The Woman in Brown. “Money! More money? Mrs. Wilde, I am perfectly astonished!” “It isn’t for myself, Eustace,” faltered the timid little wife, flushing up to the roots of her hair; “but the ladies in the church are trying to make up a little sum lor the poor soldiera in the hospital, and—” “Twen-ty-five dollars?” enunciated Mr. Wilde, as if every syllable were a hundred pound weight hurled at his defenceless part ner. “For the soldiers! Do I pay taxes, Mrs. Wilde, or do I not Are my resources drawn upon by the Government every day in the year, or are they not, for this very object?— I am not made of gold Mrs. Wilde, whatever you may think; I assure you that it is only by the practice of the most rigid economy that I am able at the year’s end to bring my expen ses within my annual income. Besides, I very cordially disapprove of these outside charities. It’s Government’s business to provide for the sick soldiers; I can’t afford to pay the debts of the whole War Department; and what’s more I won’t.” Eustace Wilde was standing in front of a garuet-elear coal-fire, on the hearth-rug, but toning up his gloves for the daily down-jaunt that opened his day’s business, a handsome, stylish looking man, with a silky black mous tache, and a portly figure attired in garments that fitted as only Broadway suits can fit; while Maggie his wife, sat before the coffee urn in a pretty morning dre3S of buffgingham with deep linen cuffs, and a little white collar tied with a maize colored ribbou. She had a very sweet face, shadowed with heavy brown hair and bright hazel eyes; but somehow there was a weary, care-wom look, a tired droop of the lashes, and a dark ring under the eyes, that made one instinctively remember patient Martha of old, “burdened with many cares.” She took up her little port-monnaie with a disappointed face to replace it in the pocket of her apron. “But what shall I tell the Committee, Eu stace “Tell them, Mrs. Wilde," said Her liusDanci, dogmatically, “that at the present scale of prices, economy is the chief duty of us all.— The soldiers will, I have no doubt, be cared for by the proper authorities. I must decline to subscribe. You observe my dear,” he added glancing at a bank-note that lay on the table cloth, “That I have already placed house keeping funds for the week at your disposal.— I must beg of you to use discretion in its ex penditure. “Five dollars is not enough, Eustacs,” said Mrs. Wilde, with a stolid courage bom of des peration. “Not e-nough?" Maggie raised her eyebrows a little impa tiently. “If you think Eustace, that five dollars will pay the butcher, settle the bakers account and the ice-man’s bills, and leave enough for dally marketing expenses, 1 should like to have you remain at home and take charge of the finan ces yourself.” “My dear, you must purchase cheaper arti cles.” “But yon know how fastidious you are about your meals.” “That has nothing to do with the question,” said Mr. Wilde shortly. “We must economise my dear, we must indeed.” Maggie Wilde colored, and bit her lip.— Economise—when she had sat through all the suinshiny hours of yesterday over a weary work-basket, mending little (lresso3 and darn ing tiny socks and retrimming her own bon net to save unnecessary expenditure! Poor Maggie! It was hard to be accused of extrav agance under these circumstances. A quick answer trembled on her lips, but she forced back the angry words a»d answered— “Indeed, I try not to be extravagant, Eu stace.” “But you must be, my dear, or where in the name of common sense does all the money go? I never spend anything.” “Don’t you.” “Never, my dear—never. Depend upon it, the escape valve is somewhere in the house keeping. It would be much better to devote your energies to domestic economy than to running about collecting money for the sol diers—very much better. And moreover, I cannot very well let you have any moie now; my funds are running low.” “You had fifty dollars in that pocket-book the day before yesterday,” said Maggie quietly “and 1 have used but ten of it-” “Ten? You must have used more than ten of it.” cent.” “The coal bill. I paid the coal bill out of it, and that was twenty dollars, you remember,” said be triumphantly. t,“Then where are tne remaining twenty dol lars?” Mr. Wilde twisted himself a little, as though his pearl-colored over-coat were rather a tight fit. “Business, my dear; you can’t he axpected to understand anything about business mat ters.” But wliat particular business, persisted his wii'e. “Maggie,” said Mr. Wilde solemnly, “this isn’t to tiie purpose at all. A woman's mind isn’t adapted to comprehend business lela tions; she should confine herself to one grand point, economy. Reduce your expenses bring everything within the narrowest possible out lay. I think it would be a very good plan, my dear, to keep a little account of your daily dis bursements, and I could glance over it every eight, and check off any little items that struck me as clearly superfluous.” Maggie’s dark eyes began to sparkle omin ously she played nervously with her wedding ring. “You would find no items of that descrip tion.” You think not, I have no doubt I but wo men seldom understand the nicer distinctions ol economy.” But Maggie rose quietly to her feet, and went out ot the room, slamming the do^r be hind her with a good deal of vehemence Tne slender thread ol her patience had been strain ed to its utmost tension, and had snapped asunder at last. She sat down, and—of course—cried hearti ^“And I was so sure of that money for the poor soldiers,” she thought, between the bright drops. “It seems so little for us to give them, when they are doing so much lor us! I cannot, brook this. I must not. J&nstaoe has harped quite long enough on this particular string—it must be put an end to. there is some difference between pinching parsimony and economy. Oh Maggie Wilde 1 li woman's wit don’t help you out of this perplexity, you deserve to sink into a mere household drudge, whose idols shall be gold, silver, and copper.” “Bridget,” said Mrs. Wilde, coming into the kitchen, where the cook was chopping spices for some elaborate made dish, wherein the heart of Eustace Wilde delighted, “will you lend me your old bonnet and shawl to-mor row Bridget stared in open-mouthed amaze ment. “Sure, ma’am, and why would you be after wanting ’em? They’re not decent for the likes of you.” “Never mind; I wish to borrow them for a particular reason.” Tt w«leome as flowers in May, ma’am. a fit they’ll be fi* you, patched, darned, an’ laded.” Jiut Mrs, Wilde only laughed. The rain was pattering drearily against the breakfast-room window the next morning as Eustace Wilde sauntered slowly in, but Mag gie’s chair was empty. “Where's your mistress, Mary he asked the waitress. “She’s breakfastin’ with the childer, sir.— Charlie’s got the toothache, and won’t he qui et without his mamma stays.” "Maggie spoils those children,” thought Mr. Wilde, siirugging his shoulders. Breakfast was rather a dismal meal without his wife’s bright face opposite to him, and he did not linger over it. “A bleak day,” he soliloquized, as he open ed his umbrella and strode forth into the rain and wind, “It’s a good thing the stages run only a block off.” He took his seat, unfolding a morning pa per, all unconscious of the shabbily-dressed woman, veiled and wrapped in a coarse brown cloak, who entered the stage at the next cor ner. Nor did he observe that she descended at the same street where he pulled the check string to alight. As he entered the covered stairway leading to his office, in a massive marble building, a bluff looking man advanced to meet him. “Look here, Wilde, I’ve been waiting here these fifteen minutes, and I’m in a deuce of a hurry too.” “I am a little behind time this momine,” said Eustace, shaking the rain diops in a din gy shower from his umbrella. “Come up to the office, HalL” “I can’t; 1 haven’t a minute to stay. I just came round to see if you could pay that little bill.” “What bill?” “Why, your share of the supper at D-’s s»d the ride afterward.” “Oh! yes—yes. Well, how much is it?” “Only a tiifle—eielit dollars.” Mr. Wilde leisurely opened his pocket-book and placed one or two ijjtls in his companion’s hand. ,b “That’s right, I believe, *A very unpleasant day. Good morning, Hall.” He ran briskly up the long flight of stairs, two steps at a time, while the shabby woman who had just been standing outside the tlu-esh hold during this colloquy, as if waiting for somebody, came into the vestibule to escape the dnving rain. “Give us a bos of your very nicest cigars— tip top!” bawled Jemmy Stokes, thec^ffice tjoy, diving into the tobacco store. “Quick 1 our boss is ih a hurry. Ten dollars? that ain’t much for a good article. I say—you might give me one for myself—I always get Mr. Wilde’s cigars here.” “Take it, then, and along with yourself,” said the man of smoke. “What can I do for you, mem?” “A pennyworth of Scotch snuff;” that was all the shabby woman in the faded brown cloak wanted. But even through the dingy veil her eyes sparkled; she must have been very fond of Scotch snuff The big bell of the City Hall was booming the first stroke of twelve as Mr. WUde stood once more in the vestibule preparing to open his umbrella. “Going to dinner, Martin,” he asked, as another legal luminary rattled down the stairs. “Well, I suppose it’s about time to think of such a thing,” returned Mr. Martin. “They have some capital turtle soup round the comer,” said Wilde, “come round with me and try it, will you?” Mr. Martin would certainly: he was not in the habit of declining such invitations, and the two set forth in high spirits; while close behind them glided the woman in brown 1 The waiter looked a little surprised as the shabby apparition crept in and took her seat at one end of the long table where Eustace Wilde and his friend, Mr. Martin, snugly es tablished themselves; but wraitcrs in a down town restaurant soon cease to be surprised at anything, and he briskly came forward to take her order. cup o- tea, mm—yes, m m. nry toast ana sandwich right off, m’m.” Rather an abstemious meal compared with the dainty fare in which her neighbors were indulging—turtle soup, with flakes of unctu ous green fat floating on the surface, roasted woodcocks, garnished with rich amber jelly, a bottle of red claret to finish off with, and a bunch of Hamburgh grapes, arranged with su perb late peaches. ‘‘Beg your pardon, m’m—you’ve got the wrong check—this ’ere’s yours ejaculated the waiter, as the woman in brown took up the cheek stamped “$6.” Sh'e laid It quietly down again; she had dis covered ail she wanted, and moved cut of the restaurant as noiselessly as she had entered. “It’s very strange!” said Eustace Wilde, thoughtfully. “What’s strange inquired his friend, de taching a black purple berry from the bunch of grapes on his plate. “That woman who has just gone out in the faded cloak—did you observe what a delicate white baud she had “She didn’t look like one of the white-hand ed kind,” observed Martin, carelessly. “No; and that’s wliabstruck me as being so singular. And with that Mr. Wilde dismissed the sub ject from bis mind. Meanwhile the little brown phantom sped swiftly down the next street, fluttered up the long flight of marble stairs, and tapped softly at the door of Eustace Wilde’s snug office. “Come in.” Jemmy Stokes was sitting on the corner of the table, cutting his initials neatly on the green morocco cover—an operation which he called “keeping office.” He looked up rather disdainfully. “Is—Mr. Wilde in “Gone to dinner,” said Jemmy, laconically; “be back in twenty minutes. Take care, ma’am—your wet dress will spoil Mr. Wilde’s new chaih Take the old one, if you please.” The “old one” was a handsome arm-chair whose green leather cushions were scarcely de faced the “new one” was a superb affair of black walnut and crimson reps, with a mova ble desk attached to the arm. “Is that style of chair very expensive asked Maggie, meekly motioning her head to wards it. “Guess it is!” returned Mr. Stokes, with laughable pride. “Let me see; the bill’s here somewhere; it only came this morning. Oh, here it is. Foity-five dollars that ’ere chair cost.” As the visitor made no comment, Jemmy applied himself once more to the curl of the S on the morocco table cover, secretly won dering what business that rusty female could have with the fashionable lawyer, his master, while the penetrating eyes under the veil took in all the elegant little accessories of the luxu riant office. “Click! click! came a pair of knuckles against the door. She started like a guilty thing, but it was only a ludfigTown boy, the very counterpart of Mr. James Stokes. “Here’s the books your boss ordered, ami the bill.” Jus’ yon leave ’em,’ said Jemmy; Mr. Wilde will send the money round this afternoon.— How much “Twelve dollars, and fifty cents.” It was a handsome iilustrftted edition of a popular author, but the visitor dared not lin ger to look at it. Murmuring something about calling ‘again,’ she withdrew much to Jemmy Strokes,'relief. Kor was she too precipitate in her movements; for as she turned into Broadway her cloak brushed against Eustace Wilde’s broadcloth garments. She hailed a passing stage with one finger of the little white hand that was so incongru ous to her rusty dress aud misshappen bon net. “Quite enoUgh for one day,” said the brown phantom to herself, as she stood on tiptoe to pay her fare. ‘I’ll have little a settlement with my lord to-night that shall astonish him—rath er.” And she laughed till the dimples danced ov er her cheeks, all alone by herselfin the stage, and careless of drenched skirts and driving rain. She was sitting at her work-table, the brown hair shining like bands of satin, and the neat n§’^jre attired in a black silk dresse trimmed with glittering bugles, when Eustace came in nf h.J1 l'dlt‘ fable was set in the middle nearlv 7onning a pretty picture with its Steaminc^m^i and gilded china, and the urn ■teaming merrily °nthu tray.

For your share ofthe supper at D-s and ride afterward, you paid eight dollars a package of cigars, ten—a dinner of turtle soup, claret, etc., six. Tour new office chair—very splendid, certainly—was forty five—your illus trated edition of-’s works, twelve dollars and a half. That amounts, I believe, to eighty one dollars and fifty cents. Don’t you think, my deir, that you might "economize a little?” Eustace Wilde turned scarlet from his shirt collar to the roots of his hair. Had there been a convenient chasm in the floor, he must cer tainly have sunk into it. Maggie, are you a witcn r “No, dear, I am only a woman.” “How the deuce did you know “I found out,” said Maggie quietly. “I must confess that 1 had no idea how very expensive business was.” Eustace moved uneasily in his seat. “I give, up Maggie,” he said, “I'll own you have me there. Be merciful little woman, and don’t abuse your victory. But I de wish I knew how you heard of it.” Maggie smiled. “If this is a specimen of every day’s expen ses, it’s no wonder you cannot spare any mon ey for the Soldier’s Fund, or— “Don’t, Maggie 1” he pleaded hurriedly, drawing out his purse, and plai' her hands, “take what "you wisfcjny “I’ll be moderate,” said Maggii you would like to subscribe at dol lars for the sick soldiers.” “Just what you please, my dear,” said Eu stace, with agrimace. And from that day to this, when Maggie wants any extra funds, she has but to hint at ‘Daily expenses,’ and Eustace’s pocket-book flies open a3 by magic, although he has never yet discovered how she managed to find it out. The Committee was agreeable surprised at Mr. Wilde’s liberality in the matter of the Sol dier’s Fund; but then the Copimittee was ig norant of the marvelous victory achieved by the woman in Brown.

DAILY PRESS, PORTLA1V Monday Morning, Oct. 23, I860. The daily °f the JPress 15 ^ger t!ian tlie com' \ifd circulation of all the other dailies in the city. Terms $8,00 per year in advance. &T Beading Matter on all Four Fft.es. The Portland and Rochester Railroad. This Road terminates at Rochester, N. H., upon its junction with the Great Falls and Conway and the Coeheco Railroads, so that a connection can be formed with Boston, by the Cocheco Road at Dover, which is under lease to the Boston and Maine Railroad Co., or by the Great Falls and Conway, which connects with, and is under the control of, the Eastern Railroad. The connecting link between the Great Falls and Conway Road and the Eastern Road, has been constructed since the work upon the York Cumberland Road ceased. Whether either of those Railroad Companies the Eastern or the Boston Maine—will offer more equitable terms than those proposed, that is, as way passengers and freight (leaving to the Portland and Rochester Road about thirty cents by the present tariff for each pas senger, aud proportionally for freight), may be questionable, but recent demonstrations give encouragement that a more liberal course wilj be adopted. It may be as well here to state that the Boston and Maine, by the terms of their agreement with the Eastern Road, in the lease of the Portland, baco Portsmouth Road, are bound not to take passengers from any other Road, except as way passengers, while the Eastern Road is entirely untramelled ty any such agreement. The termination of the Portland and Rochester Road at Rochester, gives to the Road a large trade with the Northern part of York County, and a very considerable portion ol New Hampshire, which may be turned from Portland by railroad facilities being furnished to Boston. It also renders the Portland and Rochester Railroad Co. independent as to its connection with Boston, not being restricted by the proposals of the Boston and Maine Rail road. Tlie Nashua Epping Road was chartered by the State ot New Hampshire, to run from the boundary of Maine, through Rochester, to Epping, across the Portsmouth and Concord Road to Londonderry, and across the Man chester and Lawrence Road to Nashua, con necting with the Nashua and Worcester Road. Consequently its line is northerly of the Bos ton Maine, skirting the spurn of the hills of New Hampshire, and it will form a connect ing link which is necessary for a continuous railroad to New York. This line of railroad will be the great thoroughfare to New York, affording additional railroau facilities to New Hampshire, but far greater to the State of Maine. The distance between Portland anti New York will be lessened more than thirty miles, and a business day will be saved to our merchants and other travellers. The cars now leave Augusta and Waterville in this State, at 6 1-2 A. M., arrive in Portland in sea son for the 8 1-2 o’clock cars for Boston.— Should the Portland and Rochester and the Nashua and Epping be constructed, the car. may leave Bangor at 6 A. M., be at Augusta and Waterville at 9, at Portland at 12 M., and leaving at 12 1-2, be at Worcester in time for the cars to New York, without change of the present time of running of the Nashua and Worcester cars, thus affording such facilities that the traveller will leave Bangor at 6 A. M., and arrive inNew York at 12 o’ciock at night, by present arrangements, or at 11 o’clock by the Air Line Railroad irom Pomfret. New Hampshire and Maine are thus con nected with New York, without travelling thirty additional miles to pass through Bos ton, and will thus be relieved from a change of baggage there, as well as a forced contribu tion to their hotels and hacks, with a loss oi about three hours in time. Among the benefits which would accrue to New Hampshire and Maine by the establish ment of this line, would be not only the sav ing of thfe charge upon freight, but the saving ot damage inflicted thereon by the changes in its transportation. Freight is now shipped by steamboat from New York to Fall River, thence by railroad to Boston, trucked across the city and again shipped on the steamboat to Port land, and from thence to its destination, being chargeable with three distinct wharfages. When the new line shall be completed, freight will be shipped from New York to Norwich, and from thence transported where cver the narrow gauge railroads extend, either in Vermont, New Hampshire or Maine, with out any change in the mode of transportation. Since the publication of our last remarks up on the Portland and Rochester Railroad, we have noticed an article in the Contmerciul Bulletin, headed, “Wants to avoid Boston.” We can only say lo the writer of that article, that it was the Boston and Maine Railroad Co. which put up the bars, and by their terms prevented the construction of the York and Cumberland Road; consequently those inter ested in the Y. C., looked for a terminus other than Great Falls, and lo their surprise, found one at Rochester, which will make them independent of Boston; and while it opens up Vermont and N. Hampshire to the Port land market, by lines of railway costing Mas sachusetts many millions of dollars, it ftirnish .es them an outlet to New York, which at the present time, is of far more consequence to the Road than the connection with Boston, although the latter may still be both conve nient and pjofi table to both roads. The last paragraph in the article, which we quote, we were happy to see: “To be serious, there is no cause for animos ity or commercial antagonism between Boston and Portland. Both cities are in the same boat; any enterprise which directly benefits one, must indirectly benefit the other; they cannot be too intimately connected for their mutual welfare, and the sooner they get rid of the r foolish jealosy, and learn to pull togeth er, the better it will be for both.” Vse approve of this sentiment, and wete somewhat amused at its promulgation from that quarter after the course pursued by Bos ton toward Portland in the construction of the Atlantic and St. Lawrence Railroad. The citizens of Portland will not soon forget the obstacles thrown in the way by Boston at Montreal, where Portland was represented as, “o little fishing town,” and "frozen up fitc months in the year, while the Boston harbor was always open and never obstructed,” and in confirmation a letter was presented from the merchants and “solid men” of Boston ex pressive of the same idea, which, unfortunately for the statements of those gentlemen, did not have much influence, as a print was introduc ed representing the cutting out of the Steam er Europa for six miles, in Boston Harbor, by enterprising business men of that city. *ot content with being defeated in Montre toLon^ anaSCntaCross tlle Atlantic men^ofte"1r;eriL°r3e _ n>nse for one year bv the twentieths of the busing ot Uaitte wlTd^e in Boston, but her course, in tll. the effect of transferring the a al1’ .a,i of it to New York. ^portion Was it through jealousy of Portland, tllat a| a cleebration in Boston, in honor of the xtaii road improvements in New England, a map: was constructed representing “New England,” with neither Portland or the Atlantic R.

The protracted absence of what we Republi can Yankees, not disposed to admit that any body can be a servant, call help, is seriously felt in domestic circles much wider we appre hend than this paper reaches. It almost seems as if the indispensable Bridget had definitively gone to the factories or got marriod or other wise stepped out for good, and that we must manage our household order without her good offices henceforth. a t nft_!_ as education, and the genera luxury increase tlie ambition of women as u ell as men tc be employers of servants rather than to be servants, or at least to be their own mas ters and mistresses, constantly increases also. Under the steady tuition of democratic ideas the lowest class in the scale of laborers,—a big class of about four millions—a class that for our national good repute and national safe ty ought never to have been, have just gradu ated from the extinct institution of slavery, and entered upon the humble curriculum of ser vants. The whole, mass feels the upward im pulse, and more than as many are packing up to forsake forever employments which these have threatened to monopolize or degrade. In the last generation it was not at all in compatible with native American dignity for a young girl with more health than fortune to seek domestic service in the family of some notable and thrifty housekeeper, from whose well-reputed skill as cook, baker, brewer, soap maker, dairy-woman, laundress, tailoress, em broiderer, she might acquire all those essen tial arts of life preliminary to setting up her own humble establishment. She was received into the family as an equal, sat at the common table, unless detained by the requirements of the cooking, had her chair by the evening can dle and hearth, and dipped her oar into the general conversation without asking leave or making apology. She mingled in the fireside merry-makings, went out to the quiltings, husk ings and dances, and sat in comely dress and deportment in the family pew. She had her turn at the book that was read around the house, and if no other objection could be made to her, than that she worked for a living, that did not always weigh much with the mistress’ son. looking about him for a wife, especially if she happened to be pretty, which was the ease about every other time. VTe have considerably changed all that.— We build our housed very deep into the ground, and very high up into the sky, so as to have a subterranean place where Bridget shall scrub and scrape byjlay in the steam and darkness, till her face grows red and her hands parboil ed, with murderous perpendicular back stairs leading up four stories under the roof, where she may cool off at night and regain an inter esting complexion. Occasionally a bell may summon her into the middle regions of light and warmth where her presence is permitted only so long as she is ministering to the wants of some member of the household. For the family to eat with her, to sit with her, to talk with her is no more en regie, than for two castes in India to do the same together. Ann Maria comes down from the country with her box and uinbreila, a little awkward and green, but full of independence. She goes through tills grand routine, running up stairs or down stairs to answer bells for three days and then she tosses her head and is off for the factories. My lady says in substance: good riddance, for she thinks she was pert and sharp tempered. And truly it must be owned for our own beloved New England that it does not breed all the Christian or even human vir tues. Much as we hate aristocracy and slav ery, we have to own that they have schooled races ruder than ours into habit3 of courteous speech and decorous manners, that bocks and the society of refined people can scarcely teach us. nut meantime what is mistress going to do or help? The supply not increasing, there is no help for it but to diminish the demand. This will come about. First, the enormous prices of iving, of mere living, to say nothing of the equally enormous demands, which social rank imposes upon everybody to keep up a certain superfluous style of living, interdict marriage to thousands, who under a just scale of prices ind simpler customs would marry and estab lish families and homes. The same causes will drive many with narrow incomes from necessity, and many others with small families to escape the care3 of housekeeping, into hose dismal substitutes for homes, hotels and promiscuous boarding-houses. But what shall be done for the not wealthy people too.much incumbered to change from one mode of life to another, who remember the salutary in fluence of the privacy of the family circle in which they were reared and are willing to sac rifice much else to retain it? Something we think. What is the economy of having a cook shop attached to every dwelling? Go into the near est market shop this morning. Fifty families eater here daily for their dinners. You will ■ee fifty little parcels of beef, mutton, pork, chickens, fish &c., each flanked with its little mess of vegetables. But the dinner is not yet at more than half its cost. These fifty bas kets at the meat-shop involve fifty kitchens, 3fty cook stoves with their cumberous and costly ware, fifty fires lighted in dog-days with coal at fifteen dollars per ton, fifty cooks, and perhaps in addition fifty, (but we will say twenty-five) red-faced and cross wives. JSow if we had in some situation convenient to the fifty families, a cook-shop for them all, managed by a skillful man with the necessary aid, the kitchen, kitchen fire, the clutter of pots and pans, and the hard terms of the in dignant «ook might all be saved. Madam might work in her garden, sew for her chil dren, entertain her friends or read the Atlantic Monthly till the clock struck one, when she has nothing to do but to send a boy or girl round the corner and bring in the entire din ner of the family and guests hot and hot in five minutes. It cannot be but that our ex perienced and accomplished artist, who may arrive at the fame of a Soyer^can cook a much better dinner than we can at home; for in the first place he i3 a man, and as a dinner is generally so much more to a man than it is to a woman, so a man may be expected to at tain higher skill in whatever ministers to his appetite; and then all his apparatus and appli ances may be of the best possible kind, so that the accidents of underdone or overdone that befall the best plans of private houses may be i educed to a minimum. The economy of ar rangements that permi t the fuel now used in cooking three meals to cook fifty, and the cost o the apparatus of six families to better serve nfty, that allow meats to be taken in by the carcass and cut and cooked to order, and all vegetables to be purchased by the barrel in stead of by small count or measurement, can at once be perceived. Nor is the objec tion that one may not have his morning coffee and toast, or noon potatoes or evening tea, hot, if cooled in bringing the length of a street with the thernometer standing below zero, for one tenth of what the pots, kettles &e sold as old iron will equip each table with a set of gas burners to keep every dish warm rrom the common oveu until it is consumed, e-ach mistress of a house, or master, takes his m^t rtandrT in the ““s, Of the kind and required for the day, ordering the general si ore or supplying any catena! desired to be cooked or compounded Pays the cost of just what he orders while -Sssaasrjs ^Here, then, is one metliod by which the pressing wants of the time in the mat ter of domestic labor may he met, and by which the central institution of our civilization, the fam ily Circle, may be insured its isolaiion and privacy, against the otherwise unavoidable tendency of high prices to scatter families into boarding houses, or sweep them together into eating saloons of crowded hotels. A country may be said to prosper in the propor tion that it has the most homes of families maintaining themselves in independence. When we can no longer provide for the basis of such homes in the supply of abundant and cheap food, we must not forego them till we have tried what skill and combination may ef fect in economizijjg the means wc have, and in abandoning inconvenient and expensive methods of living. Not bo very Inexplicable, alter all. John Yan Buren, that model of political consistency and harlequin of the Tammany circus, recently made a speech in New York, from which we extract the following: Now I wonder, that some of these clerical Republicans, who are always looking for the linger of Providence, do not see what a pecul iar dispensation this is, that no Democrat ev er died m the office, and no Federalist evei lived in it. Extraordinary as has been the watchful care of Providence over the United States, from the first germ of the Revolution to the last sign of the Rebellion, in no other way has that Providence been more conspicu ous than in the care and persistency with which the people have been saved from the progress of Federalist dominion. In regard to President Johnson himself, it is often said that he may die. My answer to that is, “if he is a Democrat he won’t die.”— No Democrat ever died in the Presidential of fice. General Har rison, General Taylor, and Mr. L ncoln —have been elected; each one of them died in the Presidential office, and the Yice Presi dent who succeeded administered the office upon Democratic principles. “Prince John” considers this smart. Wav ing all notice of his false classifications, by which he converts some of the truest Demo crats into Federalists and vice versa, we wish only to call attention to his suggestion about the “peculiar dispensation” which took oft' three good men, all of whom happened to be offensiveto the slavery-extending, Union-de stroying, freedojn-hating Democrats of the South. Mr. Yan Buren talks as though it was singular and inexplicable, that Democrats in high office should all live, while those op posed to the Democrats should all die. Not so very inexplicable, after all. Y/lien Democrats have been elected to office the op posite party have bowed submissively to the popular verdict, acting upon Mr. Jefferson’s idea of “absolute acquiescence in the will of the majority.” Not so when they have succeeded. Then an insubordinate spirit has been devel oped, and death has closed the career of the men whom the majority’s will had elevated to office. There are thousands and tens of thousands to-day, who believe, and noi without a fair show of reason, that Harrison and Taylor were murdered—poisoned—by the agency of South ern slavehoiding conspirators just as much as Lincoln was by the kmife of a rebel; and they believe, too, that the National Hotel poison ing In 1867 was brought about by the same agency, to kill off Buchanan and prepare Breckinridge to step into the dead man’s shoes, the authors of the plot not knowing how good a friend the President was to be to them. We confess we are not of those who sympa thise in the explanation here given of the ori gin of that singular disease, or of the deaths of Presidents Harrison and Taylor. It is quite plain to our mind that Gon. Har rison was killed by his indiscreet though well meaning friends. He was single-hearted, pure, and unused to the pressure brought to bear upon a new President, and his health and bod ily powers broke down beneath the anxiety, annoyance and pressure with which he found himself surrounded. Gen. Taylor—we ask those who doubt to read the account published at the time—died of the lancet and pill-box of a kind physician, whose anxiety for his illustrious patient led him—or them—to deplete beyond the pow ers of nature to bear. In the case of Lincoln the matter is perfect ly plain. He fell a victim to outright Demo cratic assassination. Booth was as much an instrument in the hands of the leading Demo crats at Richmond, as the fatal pistol was an instrument in his own hand. He but acted out the spirit with which Democrats had inspired him. The shot from Boston Corbett’s rifle silenced him; the shot from the freemen’s ballot-box is fast silencing his principals. Hr. Van Buren’s suggestion is really sug gestive. Perhaps it meatis that all Presi dents, not of the Democratic party, are to follow those who died in office. No doubt this result will follow if the Booth Democracy can find tools to do their infernal work. Portsmouth., N. H., Oet. 21,1S65. To the Editor of the Press: In yesterday’s issue of the Advertiser, 6f your city, we observe a libel, which reads as follows: “For Sale. POBTLAXD, Oct. 13th, 1S65. Messes. MURRAY W1LSO TO PORTLAND ADVERTISER, Dr. To advertising Theatre,...gs.oo The above bill was presented at their Ticket Office twice on the last evening thev pcrlormed in tills city, and they refii e(t to pay it. Any one wishing to pur chase the above bill can do so bv calling at the Ad vertiser Counting Room, foot of Exchange Street.” Thi3 amount is not due. The allair stands thus: On our return from Bangor, we had de termined to discontinue our advertising with that “journal.” its circulation being so small as to render it worthless. They called on us, soliciting our patronage at a price optional with us. We agreed on $4.00 per week, being less than one-third the regular rates of your city. Our seasou was of three weeks duration, which, according to agreement, would amount to $12.00. Ten dollars of this we paid, and offered to pay the balance of $2.00. This they refused. When the firm return to their senses, and present their legal claim, we wifi, with pleas ure, honor it, lielieving in the old maxim “Honesty is the best policy,” which truth the Advertiser seems to deny. That “paper?’ states a falsehood when it asserts that we ever left a bill unpaid in Portland, or elsewhere. By inserting the above in your valuable col umus you will confer a lasting favor on Your obedient Servants, Murray Wilson, Managers of Theatre. Manly Men. Under this heading the New York Commer cial Advertiser, a journal deserving the favor ite conservative epithet of “sound,” if it can be applied to any American newspaper, has the following remarks on a common petulant criticism in regard to the conduct of the emancipated negroes: Certain snobs of the Southern press write chronic compiaints that the negroes, in place of showing a thankful, humble disposition for their freedom, assume airs of equality, and no longer take the gutter when passing tfliite men. These complaints go tar toward estab lishing the claims ot equality of races, and certainly prove that emancipation came not a day too soon. The colored people would be unlit for freedom if they still presented the cringing attitude of slaves. For our own part we never fully appreciated the life-ser vices of Abraham Lincoln until we had con nected the manly bearing of colofed people in the ferry-boats, in the railway cars, and in the streets with his policy. The negroes may perhaps be somewhat extravagant in their demonstrations at their too long deferred :y*A geutieman visiting Capt.

The horse was somewhat burned, hut he would certainly have lost his life if it had not been for the merciful act of his heroic mistress.—[Whig. 5®” The Lancaster, Pa., Express confirms the report that Mrs. Julia A, and Mis* Mary E.

He had money to pay for his entertainment and was naturally surprised and grieved to find that in this brac ing moral atmosphere, he should receive such treatment. Unable to secure entertainment at our hotels, he was cheerfully received by a clergyman of this city.—[Lewiston Journa.

The ashes, dropping into a sifter beneath the Tirate, are sifted without moving. 2d. It silts ashes without dust, or other incum brance, and the cinders are ready to be used im mediately. 3d.

A delegation from tlie Masonic Commandery of Knights Templar of Rochester, New York, arrived in this-city last Saturday afternoon in the train from Montreal. They numbered about thirty, a large portion having gone home when they returned from Quebec. They were received at the depot by the Portland Com mandery, whose guests they are to be while they remain in the city, who escorted them through various streets to the Preble House, where lodgings had been provided for them.— Subsequently the Commandery sat down to a splendid dinner which had been prepared for them by Mr. Adams. The new Portland Band, under direction of Chandler, made their first appearance on this occasion, and their splendid music was the theme of remark by every one who heard it The following resolutions were adopted by the Knights of Monroe Commandery just be fore their arrival in Portland by the Grand Trunk train: Resolved, That we of the excursion party of Knights Templar of Monroe Commandery No. 12, tender our thanks to the officers and em ployees of the Grand Trunk Railway for their extreme kindness and gentlemanly attention to all our wants, tending to our comfort and pleasure, and also congratulate them upon having secured the services of Sir Knight Charles G. Beers as agent l'or their road—to whom we acknowledge our indebtedness for his indefatigable labors in our behalf thus far on the excursion. Resolved, That our thanks are due to Geo. Lested, conductor of the sleeping car, for the exertions he has made to enhance our com fort, and for Ms general courtesy and polite ness towards us. The following are the officers of Monroe Commandery: W. B. Crandall, Commander; J. W. Vary, Generalissimo; H. B. Knapp, Captain Gen eral; Col. R. F.

Soldiers* Homo in Philadelphia. Mn. Editor :—The public will doubtless be much gratified to learn that the ladies of Phil adelphia are making arrangements to hoid a grand fair on the 23d of November for the Sol diers’ and Sailors’ Permanent Home, where the maimed and permanently disabled heroes of the Union may find an asylum from the elbotvings of a busy and too forgetful world. Through the mediiun of the ‘‘Press” I would desire to appeal to the sympathies of the good people of Maine, that they extend their aid to this most laudable undertaking, whereby the crippled saviours of the country may have oc casion to bless their names ip connection with those of the ladies of Philadelphia. Maine soldiers will not soon forget the generous ef forts of the Philadelphians on their behalf during the recent war, and we trust as a re cognition in part for kindnesses received, the table for Maine will be bountifully laden with treasures towards the completion of this Samaritan object. Donations in money or goods will be thank fully received at the stores of Messrs. Steele Hayes, Middle street, and Burgess, Forbes Co., Commercial street. SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT. OCTOBER TERM—DAVIS, J., PRESIDING. Satubdat.—At the opening of the Court, the jury came in and report that in the case of Hovey vs. Hobson, they bad, not been,able to agree upon a verdict. The papers were then taken from them, and they were dis charged irom further consideration of the case. Mr. Hand, of counsel for defendant, then moved that the case he again taken up before the 2nd jury on Monday, which, after some reflection upon the matter, the Court decided should be done. After some conversation be tween the counsel, and some suggestions Atom the judge, it was agreed to make up a report to be presented to the full Court. This re port, with the ruling of ths judge, when pre sented, we shall lay before our readers. A. Merrill for plaintiff; J. E. M. Rand and H. P. Deane for de fendant. Court adjourned to 3 o’clock Monday after noon, at which time the case of Wood vs. Pen nell als. will be taken up. MUNICIPAL COURT, OCT. 21.

Moseley Co., Summer Street, Boston, Massachusetts, are justly and widely cele brated for the superiority of their boots and shoes. Mr. Moseley has, for twenty years, made a speciality of famishing for ladies and gentlemen the finest quality of boots and shoes, for all purposes, and their customers are al ways sure of an elegant fitting, well-made, de sirable article, which is a pleasure and a satis faction as long as worn.

Townsend Mrs. Metta V. Victor, Miss S. Annie Frost arid Others. For.car City Trotting Park.—There was quite a large attendance at the Park last Saturday, to witness the two mile race be tween Lady Franklin” anil “Ranger,” for $200 a side. But, to the disappointment of the crowd, it was announced from the judges stand, that the race would not take place La dy Franklin paying forfeit on account of some slight accident that had occurred to her and that all bets jpade upon the race were off. In order that those who had come to the Park should not be disappointed, Mr. Shaw offered a purse of $50 to be contended for by trotters, to be awarded to the best two in three, mile heats, or the money would be refunded to those who had paid at the gate. Frank Owen entered the bay gelding “Gen. Sherman," and Frank Emery the gray mare “Belle of Minot,” for the purse offered by Mr. Shaw. The horses were driven by the persons en tering them. The mare drew the inside, and both got off handsomely, the mare leading._ But Sherman soon lapped and passed her, the mare breaking badly. Sherman came in in 2.51 several length ahead of the mare. The second heat was all Sherman’s, who trotted squarely never breaking once, while the mare broke two or three times, and lost much ground in being brought to her feet.— Sherman w'on the heat in 2.55 and was award ed the purse. A purse was then offered by Mr. Shaw for a race of one mile under the saddle, or other wise—open to all. Two horses were entered —“Selim” a bay, and “Wheelgrease” a sorrel. They werq mounted by hoys, “Wheelgrease” bareback. There was considerable fun in this race. When “Selim” approached opposite the gate he marie a sudden turn and shot through it as though the “old one harl kicked him,” notwithstanding the hard pulling of his driv er. Half a score of mounter} men were im mediately in pursuit of him and he was brought back and drove around the track.— But the purse was awarded to.“Wheelgrease.” Another purse was immediately made up and offered for a repetition of the race between these two horses. A new driver was mount ed on “Selim,” and a3 ho was getting ready for the start the horse belted into the yard, throwing the driver and lucking over a wag on A third driver was mounted on his hack and the horses started, “Wheelgrease” taking the lead and on the back stretch being many lengths ahead. But the driver of “Selim” touched him up and he flew past his oppon ent like wind, keeping a long distance ahead and coining in leisurely several lengths in ad vance. The time was not taken but it was pretty quick. A race of matched trotters is to come off to morrow. The pairs are Tom Thumb and Kit Shepard, against Dick Ling and Rager. Ameeican Feeedmens’ Aid Commission. —There wiil be a meeting on Tuesday even ing, 24th inst., at the City Hall, in behalf of the fireedinen of our country, to be addressed by J. M. McKirn, Secretary of the Freedmens’ Aid Commission. William Lloyd Garrison and other distinguished speakers from abroad and of Maine, among whom Gov. Cony and Judge Russell of Boston, are expected. Ad mission free. It is exceedingly desirable that there may be a full house, as subjects of vital importance to the cause and deep interest to all its friends will be discussed by some of the ablest men in the nation. By order of the Executive Committtee of the A. F. A. C., and officers of the Maine Freedmens’ Association. W. H. Hadley, Agent A. F. A. C. Personal. Lieut. Col, John Edwards’ who now has command of Fort Prebie, gradu ated at West Point in 1851, and was ordered here as 2nd Lieutenant, where he remained* for one year. He was then ordered to Texas’ and then to Arkansas, California, Utah and Oregon, on which stations he served several years. Returning when the .rebellion broke out, he was ordered to the field of action, and served his country in different positions. lie participated in the battles of Bull Run, Mal vern Hill, Richmond, Antietam, Chattanoogai and several other of the most important in the war. He now returns home as Commandant of the Fort he left while 2d Lieutenant. He is a Portland boy, every inch of him, and an honor to our city. Mb. Wabren’s Grand Vocal and In strumental Concert, the programme of which is published in another column, com prises some of the choicest vocal and instru mental gems which cannot fail to attract a large boose. The artists which Mr. Warren brings to this city enjoy so world wide a repu tation that is* unnecessary for us to remind our people that a musical treat is offered them such as is rarely enjoyed outside the largest cities. We look forward to a good deal cf en thusiasm on Wednesday evening and shall be much disappointed if Mr. Warren does not meet with a success which lie could not have expected. International Steamship Line.—The steamer New York, Capt. Chisholm, with 450 passengers and a full freight, arrived here from St. John and Eastport, at 12 o’clock Saturday night, and after landing passengers and dis charging freight for this place, proceeded to Boston. The New York left St. John, N. B., Thurs -day morning, and Eastport Thursday after noon. She returned to Eastport the same af ternoon on account of the ,storm, and started again at 12 o’clock Friday, tut put in at Ma chias and remained there until 8 o’clock Sat urday morning, when she again sailed lor this port. Severe Accident.—Capt. N. C. Davis, of the firm MeGilvery, Ryan Davis, met with a severe and painful accident last Saturday.

Speech of Secretary Seward. New Yoke, Oct. 21. Secretary Seward made an important speech at Auburn yesterday, on the occasion of his reception home by his neighbors and friends. In regard to the present plan of reconcilia tion, he argued that an employment of force would but prolong anarchy and delay recon ciliation. The plan of reconciliation we are pursuing has given U3 two great national ad vances in this progress of moral and political elevation, whicli are now to be made fast and firmly fixed. First, it secuies a voluntary ab olition of slavery by every State which has en gaged in an insurrection, and dees secure an effectual adoption by the late slave States themselves of the amendment of the Federal Constitution, which declares that neither slav ery nor involuntary servitude, except for crime, shall ever hereafter exist in any part of the United States. To hasten thu reconstruction Mr. Seward said, in the language of the Presi dent, in the spirit of the Constitution, and in harmony not’only with our politics but with our religion, we must trust each other. Concerning foreign nations, Mr. Seward said he was permitted to say, in general terms, we have claims upon foreign nations for inju ries to the United States and her citizens, and other nations have presented claims against this Government for alleged injuries to them or their subjects. He believed the President would conduct these affairs in such a manner as to yield and recover indemnities justly due without any compromise of the national dig nity and honor. With whatever jealousy we may adhere to our inherited principle of avoid ing entangling alliances with foreign nations, we must continue to exercise a just and bene ficent influence in the international conduct of foreign States, particularly those which are near to us on this continent, and which are especially endeared to U3 by their adoption of Republican institutions, He was sure the President had not lost sight of this important interest, and he expected to see Republican in stitutions, wherever they have been heretofore, established throughout the American conti nent speedily vindicated, renewed and invig orated. Republican Meeting in Xcw Xork—Speech of Daniel S. Dickinson. New Yoek, Oct. 21. The Republican ratification ratification meet ing at Cooper Institute last night was address ed by Gen. Kilpatrick, Daniel S. Dickinson, Horace Greeley, Gen. Bannum and others.— In the course of his remarks Mr. Dickinson said events had made the negro a member of the political society. His freedom is one of the fruits of a war in which he has fought and bled for our common country, and it is not only one of the first duties and proudest privi leges, but for the best and highest interest of the governing race, more especially in the re cent slave States where colored men are nu merous, to advance him as far as possible in the scale of rational beings. He should be taught not only to read and write, self-reliance, self-respect, s(J f-sustenance and self-protection, but he should enjoy equal rights and be con sidered equal in the eye oi the law in courts of justice a3 a party witness; and, while I regard negro suffrage in the abstract as but one step in his progress, were I a resident of a Southern State I should advocate giving to the colored man, when sufficiently informed and self-reli ant, the ballot as one round in the ladder of his political and social elevation; but it is a matter for the States themselves, and we have no more right to dictate to the Southern States in this matter than they have to New York, where to our few blacks we extend a qualified suffrage; nor has the Federal Government a right to interfere with either. The Trial of Were—The Judge Advocate’s Argument on the Charges of. Murder. Wabhington, Oct. 21. The Werz Military Commission reassembled to-day. Judge Advocate Chipman proceeded to read his argument on charge second, alleg ing murder in violation of the laws and cus toms of war, treating the subject under four heads as follows: First, the various caso3 of death resulting from mutilation by hounds; second, those resulting from confinement in 'the stocks and in the chain gang; third, the cases of killing of prisoners by the guards pur suant to the direct order of the accused given at the time; fourth, the cases of killing by the prisoners own hands. He briefly argued the responsibility of the accused, and said that every death was a murder, for which he is ac countable, he having grossly violated the laws and customs of war. The prisoner requested that Dr. Bates might examine his person in the presence of the court to show that he was physically incapable of committing the acts of murder and assaults alleged against him. The request was granted. The President then announced that the doors would be closed and not again opened to the public. The Court in secret session deliberated on the case submitted, but nothing can be known of the result until it is officially promulgated. From the South. New York, Oct 21.

Front South Carolina—Great Fire at Charles ton—The Election. New Yobk, Oct. 21. The Herald’s correspondent at Charleston who writes under date of the ISth, says the election was progressing quietly. Gen. Burnett had issued an order prohibit ing the military from being present at the polls. The workingmen of Charleston have nom inated Gen. Wade Hampton for Governor.— In their address they express the belief that the destruction of slavery will tend to free the workingmen from the monopolies of capital ists and dignify labor. The hostile attitude towards each other in some parts of South Carolina of the whites and blacks, is represented as assuming a phase threatening serious resuiis. The former own era of the lands awarded to freedmon, it ap pears, are very anxious to get tbeii* property back and are working to that point. A disastrous fire occurred in Charleston last Wednesday, destroying several merehantile and manufacturing establishments, and the Courier newspaper office, involving a loss of $100,900. Thirty or forty persons were buried in the ruins, from fifteen to twenty of whom it is thought were instantly killed. New Yobk, Oct. 22. The steamer Emily B.

Pierre Soule was also at the Executive mansion for the purpose of paying his respects to the President. Harriet Wilkes, alias Houghton, was found dead this morning at her house on 13 1-2 street. It is supposed she wa3 ki.led by her former paramour, Levi L. Foswell. Marks on her neck indicate that she had been strangled and subsequently pushed into a closet where her body was found. The coronoFs jury re turned a verdict based on the evidence of a physician, that they believed chloroform had been administered aud she was subsequently choked. The murderer robbed her of a gold watch set with pearls, the diamond ring on her Anger, and other jewelry. The deceased was originally from Albany, New York. The Trial of Werz. Washington, Oct. 22. Capt. Werz was, on Saturday, examined as to his physical condition before the Military Commission, by Dr. Bates, While this was in progress, Dr. Ford, physician at the Old Capitol, came, and was called to the stand, and testified to the following effect: He had attended the prisoner since Juue last, and frequently examined his right arm, which was much swollen, inflamed and ulcerated in three places. The arm appeared to have been broken, and a portion of the bone was dead. He did not know bow much strength the ac cused had; but his condition was such that he could not knock a man down, or lift a heavy instrument, with his right without inflicting injury upon himself. Dr. Ford examined the prisoner’s left shoulder, and found there a large scar, and one-half of the under muscle of the shoulder was gone, only the front portion being left. The effect of this was to prevent a Cerfect elevation of the arm above the head, ut no material effect in the inflection of the arm in either direction: for instance, he could move from the elbow, and was capable of striking out with some force from that point. Two fingers of the right hand are slightly con tracted, the result of an injury to the nervous systom. Bath legs of the prisoner are covered with dark brown sores as though they had been at one time ulcerated. Farioue lteme. New York, Oct. 22. The safe in the railroad station at Flushing, L.

Poetry. The Neokan. BY MATT UK ARNOLD. In summer, on the headlands, The Baltic Soa along, Sits Neckan with his harp of gold, And sings his pUinlive soi g. Green rolls bcncalh tho hcadlan is, Green rolls the Bailie Sea. And there, below the Neckan's foot, HI3 wife and children be. He sings not of the ocean, It. sheila and rote* pale. Of earth, of earth the Neckan sings; Ho hath no other talc. He sits upon the headlands, And sings the mournfuf stave Of all he saw and lelt on earth. Far from the green sea wave. Sings how, a knight, he wandered By ca*tlo, field, and town,— But earthly knights have harder hearts Than the Sea Children own. Sings of his earthly bridal— Priest, knights, and ladies gay. “An l who art thou,” t he priest began, “Sir Knight, wedd’st to-day?” “I am no knight,” he answar’d; ‘•From the sea waves 1 come.”— The knights daew sword, the Indus scream’d, 'ihj surplic’d priest stcod dumb, j He sings how from tho chapel He vanished with his bride. And bore her down to the sea halls, Beneath the salt soa tide. Ho sings how she sits weeping ’Mid shells that round her fie. “Fa.4 j N 3 a 1 sin.*;s nr bed,” she weep3: “Ho Christian mate havo I.”— He sings how through the billows He rose to o&rtli again, And sought a priost to sign the cross, That Neckan Heaven might gam. Be sings bow on an evening, Beneath tho birch trees cool. He sale and play’d his harp of gold, Beside the river pool. Beside the pool sate Neckan— Tears till’d his cold blue eye. On his white mule, across tho bridge, A cassock’d priest rode by. “Why sitfst thou there, O Neckan, And play’st thy harp of gold? Sooner shall this my stall bear leaves, Than thou shalt Heaven behold.” Tho cassock’d priest rode onwards, And vanished with his mule. And Neckan In the twilight gray Wept by the river pool. In summer on the headlands, The Bailie Sea along, Sits Neckan with ids narp of gold, And sings his plaintive song.

The Eye, Ear,-Catarrh —ASP THROAT! MRS. MANCHESTER, THE INDEPENDENT CLAIRVOYANTI -AND JElcctvic Physician t From G18 Broadway, New York, lias returned to Portl&ud, anti can bo consulted at her office, No, 11 Clapp’s block. ONE OF TIIE GREATEST CUBES ON RECORD. Prompted by no other than the fueling of benevo lence, and for the benert ot the afflicted, I desire to make known a short description of my tisease and the unexpected cure which I obtained from Mrs. Manchester’s Medicine. Upwards of two years since I was taken sick, which gradually increased until I was so far reduced that I never expected to be well again. I had the at endancc ot six eminent physicians, and never rcceirc J the slightest ben fit until I com menced usin r Mrs. Manchester s Medicines. My dis ease at that time was as iollows:—I was extremely feeble—confined tojnybed. My flesh had all disap peared. the whites ot my eye were yellow, also the skin yellow: I had a dull heavy pain in the right side, and it was very much enlarged: pain in my shoulders and spine. The left side seemed to decay so that th. re was quite a hollow place in it. I had a very distressing pain at the pit of u«y stomach; tongue coated thick, tomach very acid, appetite en tirely gone, not being ablo t.» keep anyth ng on my stomach, fever, nigut sweats, thirst violent, dry cough, difficulty of breathing, dull headacho. I cannot describe rs I wish to do my misorable st ation and suffering as every organ in my body was diseased. My physicians said I was first hastening to the consumi)tion. I eni y at this time perfect health^nd this is a plain, short history of my case, and is the fruth. I would recommend every and all invalids to go and con sult Mrs. Manchester. Mart A. Moulton.

HOW MANY THOU8ANDS CAN TESTIFY TO THIS BY UNHAPPY EXPERIENCE! Young men troubled with emissions in sleep,—a complaint generally the result of a bad habit In youth,—treated scientifically, and a perfect curb war ranted or no charge made. Hardly a day passes but we are consulted by one or more young man with the above disease, soiuo of whom arc as weak and emaciated as though they l-«ul the consumption, and by their friends supposed to have It. All such cases yield to the proper and only correct course of treatment, and in a snort tinio are made to rejoice in perfect health. MIDDLE-AGED MEN. There are many men at the age of thirty who are troubled with too frequent evacuations from the blad der, often accompanied by a slight smarting or burn ing sensation, and weakening the svstern iu a mannei the patient cannot account for. On examining the urinary deposits a ropy sediment will often be found, and sometimes small particles of semen or albumen will appear, or the color will be of a thin milkish hue, again changing to a dork and turbid appearance. Tncre are many men who die of this difficulty, ignor ant of the cause, which is the SECOND STAGE OF SEMINAL WEAKNESS. 1 can warrant a perfect cure m such cases, and a full and healthy restoration of the urinary organs.
