- T'HE opposition to the conte‘mplutéd endorsement of a portion of the “Independent” State ticket by the 15th of July convention seems to become stronger every day. !

Cupa is struggling with the financial problem at a point alittle advancelof our own. The government has declared that a pupé;dn]l;w is a legaltender; hut for all that it takes two or three paper dollars to buy alegal-ten-der gold dollm‘,'mul the disparity is widening with inereased paper issues, The (I’Jub;u-ms'. are pushing the greenback business to its legitimate conelu-.'sli'pnr-~l»:mkrupt('y.

- Hormax' A. HAMILTON, of Fort Wayne, was’ last week fm')min:}lvd by the Democrats ofithe Twelfth District for Representative in. Congress. ITis cofnpetitors were Walpole Colerick, A. Zollars, 1. P. Milligan, and James R. Bobo. There was considerable bitterness exhibited during the progress of the convention. Judge Lowry withdrew his name before a ballot was t:ikvn, and made a violent speecly in denunciation of Bill* Fleming and other supporters of the successfif) candidate. ; .

TiE AMERICAN or anti-secret society party recently organized at Syracuse, N. ¥, can hardly point at the past as an (‘ll(?()}lf‘ﬂg(’l])(‘llt to their prospects in the future. Over forty years ago, the anti-masons commanded ,Sﬁifficient strength to elect their candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania (old Joe Ritner), but since then they have been. utterly, powerless in that great commonwealth, This goes to show that instead of growing in strength, their foree there has been reduced to something litm a corporal’s guard, CoUESREE e HoN, EvGENE HALE spuddenly reconsidered 'his,:tc(-.oﬁtnnce of the Post-m;lstvv-(:onm'ulship, and ]ust"J‘hursday' notified the President of hLis positive déclination, The position was tlhereupon tendered ex-Gov.

REPUBLICAN PAPERS felicitate themselves that the German vote of Indiana is not sueh a “huge institution” as was hitherto supposed by politicians. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Guzette has absurdly fixeéd the number of German born voters at 14,000;\~'!xile the Indianapolis Journal mugnunin{ously raises it to 20,000, 1f these gentlemen are really solicitous of ascerlui.ning the strength of the German voting element, we can furnish them authentic facts and figures that will make quite a different showing. ~ They will learn therefrom that 40,000 would be far nearer the real mark than

either 14000 or 20,000, Ll a “TWO DAYS AT LAPORTE. : The gémi-annual meeting of . the Nortlrern Indiana Editorial: Association attracted quite a number of newspaper men to the beautiful city of LaPorté, on 'J‘lmrst_l:‘l.y and Friday of last \\'%ﬁ({k. The business sessions-were unusually brief, yet suflicient whs accomplished to ‘compensate the fraternity for the time devoted to this pleasant gathering. I A carriage-drive around the lakes gave the editors a pretty fair idea of the natural hen’thy of LaPorte. It revealed the fact that, with proper improvements, the lakes afford a resort for he over-worked and over-taxed men of business that is scarcely surpassed anywhere. ' Of the fertile country with which LaPorte is surrounded it is needless to- speals. It is the garden spot of Indiana. o ‘ The display of the lolly Water Works in the evening convinced all that the “fire-demon” has but little chance to lay the hand of destruction

upon the property-owners of LaPorte. - It is indeed a grand sight to behold the //\Q,Ll\!ll‘l‘g streams as they are thrown \ over the highest points and in a short : space of ‘time completely submerge - dusty streets and withered lawns. ‘A public nieeting was held in the i][igh School l!)'uilding, Thursday evening, to listen to an address by Col. Gil. A, Pierce, of the Imter-Ocean, and a poem by Mrs. Emma Molloy. Both ecquitted themselves very creditably. .. The oceasion was enlivened by some ~ very excellent music by Prof. Owen’s . quartette. At the close of the exercises, the members of the press, joined by the leading citizens of the town, . ¢ = repaired to the Merrill House, where a banquet of “magnificent proportions” ' was partaken of by as happy a crowd . as ever assembled under like circumstances.. 'As amatter of course, toasts ~and spéeches could not be omitted on an occasion of this kind; hence it was nearly one o’cloék before the guests dispersed and departed to their respective places of abode, A pic-nic north of Clear Lake, under the auspices of the“ Standard Club,” was the main feature of Friday’s exercises. This was ‘truly a delightful affair. ‘The Jadies prepared a splendid repast, while a German DBand from Plymouth (composed of six brothers, only three months in this ecountry) dis- - coursed sweet strains of musie, The : young folks “tripped the light fantas‘tic” on the barge attached to the little steamer “Viola,” which plied back and forth across the lake to the inﬁn;pe de- - light/of “all concerned.” = '. 1 ..

HON. MICHAEL C, KERR. -Giood men of all parties will rejoice to learn| that the Democrats of the Third Ilildimm Distriet, at their convention held in the town of Seymour on the Ist inst., unanimously nominated the Hpn. M. C. Kerr for Congress: No other name was presented. We have toooften spoken of the ability, honesty and integrity of this gentlem:mﬁto render com mendation necessary on this occasion. All we can say is that the wholé nation will be benefited by Mr. Kerr's return to Congress, and that Indiana will have special cause to congratulate herself upon azain securing the services of this distinguished statesman. ;

Mr. Kerr being in attendance at the convention, he was called upon to deliver an §':uldross,- which request he complied with in a thoughtful and exhaustive speech on the political topics of the day, embracing corruptions in the -government; the wrongs which would hayve followed the passage of the Civil Rights bill, which happily had been defeated by the Democrats in the lower Ifouse of Congress; muzzling of the press, showing the purpose of the friends of the personal government, to destroy the right of eriticism of the acts of the government -agents, and showing a spirit which, were it powerful enough, would entirely destroy free speech and tl\,g: right of the people to assemble and discuss affairs of State or the acts of the public servant; the inequality of; taxation; the unequal benefits of inflation; the necessity of the farmers protecting them‘selves against monopolies; the wrongs perpetrated upon the farmer and consumer generally through the operations of a protective tariff; and closing with a fair, honest and elaborate Jie 3 . statement of the currency question, his views being condensed in the last two resolutions of the platform, which reads as follows: . 4. That we fully recognize the intrinsic and incalculable value to alls the people af a currency based upon, and convertible’ into gold and silver, as is obviously eontemplated by the constitution, but we also deem it inexpedient nm\E, while the country languishes under the effects of a recent financial erisis, to :Ittempt{,the resumption of specie payments. . 5. That we believe the best interests and safety of the people demand the repeal of the National Banks, and a substitution for their notes of an equivalent amount of greenbacks, to be issued in redemption of bonds, thereby reducing the burden of interest on the public debt, and giving the people better currency. | ,

THE ANTI-MONOPOLY PARTY OF lOWA.

In Towa the anti-monopoly party have taken the field for a second time. On Wednesday, June 24th, their convention met at Des Moines and nominated a State ticket, choosing the candidates with equal impartiality from both of the old parties. The platform is strong in nearlly all respects. The anti-monopolists of Towa declare emphatieally :}gainst paper money inflation, and demand a speedy resumption of specie payments. “Fhey insist that the currency shall be convertible at will into a gold equivalent and distributed equally among the States. Such a currency'\i'o‘ul(} hardly need any assistance on the part of the government to secure its equal distribution. - They further insist that the duties on imports shall be fixed only on a revenue basis. They arraign President Grant’s administration for the enormities perpetrated by the jcnrpet-baggers in the Southern States, and proclairi that the right of the people to regulate their local affairg shall not be infringed. On the liquor question the resolutions declare against prohibition as having proved incapable of checking the vice of intemperance, and in favor of such laws as will encourage scbriety among the people. In no other State of the Union have the fanatical ‘measures of the prohibitionists: been carried to such an extravagant pitch, and this resolution sufficiently indicates the reaction in-public sentiment.

IT turns out that the slippery lawyers of Congress have passed a bill, which has been approved by the President, which ‘brings any newspaper circulated in the District of Columbia within the reach of a libel suit-which must be decided before the district courts. In order to get the necessary jury trial the criminal court is invested with jurisdiction. A San Francisco editor can now be brought to Washington and tried before a negro jury foij expressions derogatory to the peace or comfort of public officials at Washington, it having been held that an indictinent will lie at thle point where the newspaper circylates.

EDITORIAL CONVENTION NOTES. The press at large was represented

in the editorial convention at Lalorte, last Thursday and Friday, by Col. G. A. Pierce of the Chicago Inter-Ocean, J. D. Nicholas of the Indianapolis Journal, F.J. Shepard of the:lndianapolis Sentinel, Laura Ream of the Cincinnati Commercial, and Geo. C. Harding of the Indianapolis Herald. Mr. Nicholas, managing editor of the Indianapolis Jowrnal, is'not quite 32 years of age. eis a native of li’ennsylvania, knows all about Simon Cameron, understands the workings lof Pennsylvania Legislatures, and is pretty well posted on political tricks generally. e makes avery agreeable companion. '

We greatly en Joyed a prolonged chat wi"t_h Lan},m Reamn. .?'he writes a capital letter. S Wadsworth and Powell are entitled to the lasting gratitude of the fraternity fm\"their untiring efforts in behalf of the fraternity. ° ‘ Jiy :

We can assure the bretliren who tailed to put in an appearance that they missed arich treat—Tom Mays espécially. Those nicely “done up" spring chickens, Tom, were delicious. It is a very difticult matter to transact business where the editors are banqlmﬁ@i], Jpie-niced, carriagekl, &e,, as they were at LaPorte. During our stay at LaPorte we were the guest of Mr. Ralph Davidson, a centleman of extensivel information and a high order of intel]igénce. llis lxumésto:xq is a most delightful resort for a wé;u'y sojourner during the “heated term.” A charming fountain (construeted en naturell), an extensive green-house litr(*.'_r:tlly filled with an endless variety of flowers, &e., and thrifty trees of every description, adorn his premises-of two acres. With such surroundings man cannot be otherwise than happy and contented. { Of course, we couldn’t think of visiting Lalorte without giving Mr. Axtell, the genial landlord of the Teegarden ITouse, a eall. The popularity of this hotel is continually on the increage. . o : 0

The reading room in the rear of the odd Fellows lall is a splendid place for holding editorial conventions. If the minds of the brethren could have been put in corresponding order, the business transactions of the convention would have been immense.

Mayor Nye's welcome address was a .]mpl)y effort. Mort, when he gets right down to business, is no slouchat speechimaking. 2y

| ('pr:]ey Baxter, of the Waterloo Press,made his stay very brief., We regretted his undue haste especially for the reason that we had concluded on joining him in taking a glass of icewater—a beverage mot generally included in the Pro‘gl'mnme' on similar oceasions. 7 § .

The LaPorte publishers have a happy faculty of exemplifymg the scriptural injunction of “brethren dwelling together in unity.” They never indulge in personal controversies, never undertake to undermine one another, never misconstrue each others’ motives; but pursue their avocation on strictly business - and professional principles. Such are the results where none lidtdgentlemen and true journalists are connected with the local press. Would that every community wére likewise favored—that “ratting” creatures and envious scribblers were supplanted by men of liberal views, correct business habits, and strict integrity. - ' : Goaalg POLITICAL BREVITIES. 2 Hi. Iddings is trying to induce Col. A. M. Tucker, Auditor of 'Elkhart county, to run for the congressional rHomination, - ; ‘ Major Calkins, of LaPorte, seems to have the if’lside track for the republican congressional nomination iun the Tenth District. v it is reported that Gov. Ilendricks will define his position on the finance question before the Democratic State Conventiom. il ' :

- According to Ch:l}'ley Baxter, there will be a lively-tussle over the local offices in DeKalb county. Charley gives signs of goinginto the ficht with great earnestness. [ Judging from present z‘l.ppeai'zmees, the fight in Whitley county will be a little bit the hottest of anything witnessed in that county for many years. The Dboys on both sides already have their sleeves rolled up to their elbows. The Liberal Democracy of LaPorte boldly. avow their determination to “scoop” their opponents by about 509 majority. o Ed. Hawkins is a canilidate for the Democratic ,Liberal nomination for Sheriff of LaPorte county. Ed. is a mighty good fellow, a splendid campaigner, and would prove himself an officer of whom the pfznple could well feel proud. Ll .

* The unanimous nomination of Ton. M. €. Kerr~for Congress from the Third Indiana District is hailed with unfeigned pleasure by all men who appreciate ability and true merit. e ought to be elected without a dissenting voice. -

The demoecratic congressional convention which met at F't. Wayne last week must have been a “red-hot” affair. It is fortunate that the brethren have 315 months to cool off their excited blood. fnre

. Unless the opponents of John . Baker bestir themselves lively, that gentleman will walk over the race track without serious impediment.

John A. Finch, chairman of the Liberal Republican State Central Committee, wants to go to Congress, in place of Gen. John Coburn, Mayor Mitchell, of Indianapolis, has concluded that he does not wish to trayel in that direction. i v

The nomination of a People’s candi: date for Congress for this (the 13th) district is strongly urgedl in various quarters. It is thought that a movement of this kind would be likely to meet with success. : i The “irrepressible conflict” between the Milligan and Slack: wings of the Huntipgton Democracy broke out anew with intensified Litterness at their recent eonnty convention for the

{fappointment of delegates to the con- + gressional and State conventions.

The Indianapolis correspondent of the Winamac Democrat expresses the opinion tnat with a strong ticket the Democracy may carry the State by from. 1,500 to 2,ooo.majority. Close

enough. : The Fippecanoe county Democrats at their convention, instructed ifor lIOm Thomas “B. - Wurd for Congress. The Evansville Courier advises the

Democratic Convention to aceept the Independent ticket and platform as the surest me!;ms of carrying. Bosh! ;" The New Albany Ledger-Standard endorses ITon. Oscar B. Hord for the Democratic nomination for AttorneyGeneral. A better selection eould not be made, but we doubt if Hord is willing to stand. 1 : The Madison Cowrier yeports that: “A rumor comes from the Third Congressional District to' the effect that Gen. James A. Cravens will probably be ai independent candidate for Congresd against on. M. C. Kerr, the regular Democratic candidate.” We don’t believe James would he guilty of so. foolish a ‘rick as that.

The Vineennes Sun is bitterly up-' posed to anything that seems like an “ endorsement of the- Independent ‘ movement at the forthcoming Demoeratic Convention, and says: “If the only (')_hject of the Democratic parwﬂ‘i&; to nominate .a ticket that is certain to be elected, all we have to do is to endorse tlie Republican ticket, ‘and we will have®a pretty sure thing.” ' ‘

‘A correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirér, writing from Cambridge City, prediets that Hon. W. S. Holman will be the Democeratic eandidate for Congress in that distriet,. the new Fifth, and will be elected.

' A Roadviewer l:o\l'h-w(‘d. ‘ Mr. EpiTor :—Several persons having desired me to reply to the rejoinder of 11. Wood T will proceed to do so by your consent; although (aside from the prestige of a prominent name) L think it un'\vm'thy_(»l_' public notice.— Having fairly introduced himself to | the publie, he proceeds to say: “It is not: true as intimated that there are nine families on each side of the river who wish to send their eiiildren to the _proposed .\“Cll()()l-l_u)l‘lﬂt‘.“ But it so happens that 1 made no such intimation. I did say that there were that many families within one mile of the spot. And as this st;xt;_ment is. capable of being verified, I was vain enough to suppose that this was tolerably good proofof the utility of the proposed road. This fact,as well as many others equally important, may not have been known to those. gentlemen of age, and diseretion, but would it not have been well for them to hiave used a/little effort to leArn the true state of the case ? The next important statement refers to the “gr;ulc,’:’ which he says will be “from.2s to 30 rods in length, and from 2 to 4 feet in ]wight;" he further says that a part of ‘this low ground is “annually 6\‘&lllo\\&l,’ except in «dry seasons like the present.” ‘ It strikes me that this statéement is a little too indefinite to be relied on as a Dbasis of calculation; yet he proceeds to state (on the strength of this alone so faras I can discover) that “the cost of making this highway cannot be less than $1,500 or $2,000.” By what name shall I designate this monstrous assertion ? Those who are familiar with the route, will be likely to style it a slander upon humanity—an example of purely “intuitive knowledge” in which facts and figures have .been laid aside,.as being no value in them. The reatler will observe that' he speaks only’ of the highway, and lie had no right to estimate any other expense, since a petition for a-bridge cannot be entertained until the road has been made ready for travel. But if we grant him the privilege of taking a special train, and hqri"ying on in mf\'_;mce' of the years, until he finds the road opened, and a petition for a bridge granted, he will find in connection with these facts ‘that a ecompetent mechanie is willing to build the bridge for $6OO. But, as has already been stated, he had no right to take this éxpense intp the account, lle comes before the public then, with the statement that the road will cost “so muech.” and then asks: “are the tax-payersof Noble county in favor of paying over the money for said improvement?” Does the Judge really want peoﬁl._e to think him ignorant of the fact that the county has nothing to do with' this matter? Ile next mentions the “oath;” but what does he say to convince an intelligent “public” that the obligations of that path were either properly understood, or properly observed? e quotes the law respecting “prgcticubi’lity, and utility,” but has mnot even tried to show that his judgment was right in one case or the other. Ile mentions the grade but this is not enough since many grades have ﬂegn made; hé du'ght. therefore, to have shown that the parties interested were either unable or unwilling to meet the expense, On the score of utility he appears at an equal disadvantage, since he has not even asserted that he used any means to discover the probabilities o'ttravel, or thgtt he gave a candid hearing to the arguments produced by one of the petitioners, while the “view” was being madeq I will now note down a couple of items, which will show that the route is not without some evidence of “utility.” Some time last winter (being in Ligonier) I was accostéd by a man who wished to buy some-cattle. During the conversation he remarked that he Jhad been in my neighborhood a few days since and had been obliged to eross!_ the river on a railroad bridge four times in one day. He then said; “If I lived where you do I would have a bridge;” then with emphasis he repeated: “I would have it!” The second item is to the effect that a certain man living west from that point, and, within the bounds of FElkhart county, is so much interested '{,thatjhe will give $lO for that purpose. I will add on this point, that I believe it can be made to appear probable that., ‘this is the most proper place for a road across the river bhetween Ligo-

nier and Benton, and that the “policy” of these “viewers,” if uniformly carried out, would put 2 veto on i majority of‘the roads -in the eounty. This t:'ix‘fem'ing individual imagines that I have assailed himself and his fellow viewers heczm.sv of their age, and that I styvled their report “ladicrous, and ridiculous;” and 1t will not do for me to deny that these are the thoughts of wisdom, as he is not supposed to indulge in any other; hut! they are of a

pluperfect variety, which, being interpreted, signifies wisdom past, or gone by. The age of these men was not mentioned with any feeling of disvespect, and what I said about the ludicrous and ridiculous,referred to their conduct while taking the view. The remarkable “wind-up” of hfs rejoinder will satisfy some that his k}l()\y'lt)(lge of rug-weeds and pig-pensissufficiently thorough for practical purpeses; and, since he likes to delight in “things like these,” I will quietly withdraw, and “legve him there.” R.

In the evening the boys built a bonfire which, with llm'uxceptiuns of a few turpentine balls, was all the fireworks we had.

Watceh Your Dogs!

= For .some weeks past intense excitement has prevailed in the city of New York, caused by the appearance of that terrible calamity, hydrophobia, and several deaths have occuired in that city. More recently the alarm is sounded at various points within the limits of our own State. At L.aPorte, last week, several persons were bitten and the slaughtering of dogs by the authorities was immediately begun and so vigorously prosecuted that in a very short time three dray-loads of canine carcasses were {ransported beyond the city limits. At Warsaw the case of Mr. Evans (of which brief mention is made elsewhere) is given up as hopeless. At Ft. Wayne symptoms of madness were shown by several dogs and they were immediately killed. Mayor Zollinger, of the latter blace, has ordered that all dogs in the city be muzzled at once, and instructed ‘the police and marshals to shoot at sight all dogs found running at large in violation of the ordinance and proclamation. We hope all will now see the necessity of at once complying with and assisting to enforce our town ordinance in relation to the muzzling of dogs. Better that every unmuzzled dog found running at large, in violation of said ordinance, be shot down, irrespéctive of race, color or previous condition, ete., than that one human life be sacrificed to this dreadful malady. : Hydrophobia—New York Physicians Disapprove Muzzles, and Suggest that the Canine Teeth of Dogs be Filed, ; . {Extract from thé proceeﬁings of the Neurological Society of New ¥ork.] Resolved, In the absence of any legal enactment the New York Neurological Society recommends to all owners of dogs to have the teeth of the animals blunted in the following manner, as detailed by Fleming in his treatise on “Rabies and Hydrophobia.” The operation is a simple one. For a large dog two assistants are necessary ;’ for a small animal only one; the creature is seated on g table; a gag is fixed in the mouth between the molar teeth by a band passed behind the neck ;another band or piece of wide tape fastened around the muzzle at the back of the gag prevents any movement of the jaws. To blunt the incisor teeth a file is used, and to expedite the operation the longer canine teeth or fangs are shortened by short nippers and then smoothly rounded by file. The gag, of course, must be proportioned in thickness and length to the size of the animal. -

| EpITOoR BANNER:—WiII you give room in your worthy paper for the following: On. June 9th our new Lutheran church| at’ Elkhart, was blown down by a| fearful storm. It had just been reafdy for the roof. A number of citizens came to our.relief and have given us aid. At our last Conference the Ministerial Brethren agreed to take a collection for our benefit. Rev. O. W. Bowen, of Ligonier, invited us to visit his Pastorate on Sabbath, June 20th. I was with him, and the result was that the Cromwell congregation gave $14.65, and the Salem congregation gave $21.23. Among the donators 1 “%Esh to mention the names of a number of the little boys and girls who threw in their mite.— At Cromwell, Harry Honts, John Mesmore, Vally Smith, John N. Sherer, and Effa Miner. | At Salem, Emma Wolf, Estella Wilson, John Wilson, and Miles Wells. May God bless these little children. i &Jo G, BIDDLE, Erxyart, July 2. 3

Comet Notes:

~ The comet lately discovered is approaching the earth with the velacity of a cannon ball., It can be seen a short distance below the pole star, westward. No one need feel alarmed, as it does not propose to effect a landing anywhere on ﬂlié trip; but is just making a summer excursion on its own hook! R . :

Henry M. Pm-khlurst,.au astronomer, predicts that the tail of the comet will envelope the:mooﬂ, and may the earth. When at its greatest length to the view, will reach from about the north gtar down to the horizon and be quite broad in appearamce. He estimates its length, by actnal computation, to be’ 3,000,000 of miles, o

‘As the tail of 4 commet is about equivalent to moonshine in solidity, no one need fear having his corporation upset when it strikes the earth.— Its impinging forece is about like that of a rainbow, and|like it, can be seen till - one gets into it, then it can’t be seen. So, let no one feel alarmed.

SEVERAL hundied thousand dollars’ of property and several lives lost is a fearful price to pay for the pleasure of celebrating the Fourth with fire-crack ers and powder, It is questionable whether the sale of fire-crackers should be allowed at all. They are not merely a great nuisance in. every respect, but the immediate cause, every year, of very considerable destruetion of life and prope’rty.§ "[s’

Woman may preach in the Universalist Church in Mrine if she chooses. The State Convention has so decided. Universalist doctiines are peculiarly adapted to awaken the susceptibilities of women, and it ii'will De surprising if many do ﬁot receive a “call” to preach the mereiful Go’s;tel of Universalism in the highways and bytways of Maine,

A band of 700 Mormons ‘arrived in New York last Monday. Most of the converts were Scandinavians. They are in charge of eighteen missionaries, whom it wonld he quite eonsoling to call rascals if weé Lad assurance that they deserve: o beso called. These, missionaries, and others like them, are doing ‘more to prevent the peaceful solution of the Mqgrmen “problem” than any otlier class of men out of Congress. They areattemmpting tosat-. urate Utah with the hideous morality of their hideous Chureh. 1f it were possible for them ito succeed, there would be some oceasion for alarm. . s ~:.ti:,r.:*:'f_‘;t:‘_;:-.—,.;_jf' T 8 S MARKETS.

Great : wars and consequent revolutions have oceurred, -involying national changes of peculiar moment i — - The civil war of onr-own country, which was at its height when the last, volume of the old work - - appeared, has. happily been ended, and a new course of commercjul and industrial activity has: been commenced. . . Large accessions to our geographical knowls : edge have heen made by the indefaticable explor- ! ers of Africa. i i ; The great political revolutions of -the last decade, with the natural result of the lipsé of time, 1 have brought into.public view, & mnltitiate ofnew : men; ‘whose names areiin every one’s month, and of whoese lives every one 1s icurions to know the particiiares Great battles have been fought and important sieges maintained, ot whicly the details are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in . the transient publici#tions of the day, kut which, - ought now to tuke their place in Permanént and authentie history.

L - The- illustrations which aré introduced for the first time in the present edition have been added : not for-the sake of pictorial eflect, but to give greater lucidity and force. to the ‘explanations in g thé fext. They embrace all branches of explanationsin the text. They embrace all brancﬁes of 5 sciehce and of natural history, and depict, the most famous and remarkable feature of scenery, ; architecture, and art, as well as the varions processes of mechanicsand fhanu factures. Although intended for .instruction rather than embellish- - ment, no pains have been spared to insure their ‘artistic excellence; the cost of their exécution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as.an admirable feature of the .
