\VES’I‘I‘olt'l‘.—-—VVC are sometimes inclined
.o indulge in the prrtssion that. “we
lie thankful th-it 4th of July comes btit
nice It year,“—not that we dislike the day or
:he event. which it commemorates, but to es-
:: pe that inteiniinablc noise, that. unbridled
icense given to powder and lire-crackers;
yet as it comes to us but once a year, arid the
:th which it commeinnrates—thntol a un-
ion‘s independence—we are content lOJUlH
u the universal jubilee and rejoice that ”‘0
lay is so generally observed in remem-
brance of this noble declaration of our au-
cestors. .
City people were in town to escape the
deafening noise of powder as well as the
heat. and din of city life. Excursions and
pic-nics were the order of the day. A liber-
ul amount of money was subscribed by the
citizens to give the boys :1 little enjoyment
with the “ordnance" which was placed in
the “diggens” for the occasion ; a tent was
raised, flags unfurled, and they banged away
throughout the day without regard to the
number of States in or otit of the Union.
in the evening pyrotechnics were visible
lrom many private residences about town.
Tile ladies‘ Fair at the Memorial Chuth,
4th aml 5le lusts, was very successful.
Matty ol the articles sold at very remunera-
tive prices. A 1er novelties were impro-
vised for the occasion. Your correspondent
and two other gentlemen were delegated by
the ladies to build a well wherewitlr “Rebec-
ca" could dispense cooling draughts to the
thirsty; the “two other gentlemen" perform-
ed the labor—of course somebody had to;
“overlook” the work. Flags were plenti-
lully displayed throughout the room, re—
minding one that the entertainment was
purely American. In makingasurvey 0f
the many attractive articles displayed on the
tables, we were at a loss which table to clas-
sify as the prettiest. A few articles, howev-
er, demand special attention. One table was
filled with "little folks," dolls of all sizes,
an}, we suppose, all ages; one doll large as
life, elegantly .atlired, was presented to the
fair by Mrs. Lord of New York City,—an
old lady 80 years of age who has made simi-
lar donations at previous fairs; pin cushions
by the busheI,—every bachelor had to have
one; pen-wipers of various styles, iii any
quantity, (we saw one nearly as large as the
skirts of our coat, would‘nt the coat do as
well?) The floral table, presided over by
Misses Ida G. and Anna B. was very pictur-
esque. Such blooms ! their fragrance filled
the air. This department did a thriving
business. The confectionery table, under
the care of Miss Saminis and a bevy of as
sistants, was very admirably arranged and
attracted great attention,—of course she was
not to blame lor that. Miss Elizabeth Gray
had some oil paintings which received pass-
ing notice ; these were by no means her best
specimens, yet from a close examination of
tin in it was evident she had a. clever knack
Of handling the pencil. One Pastel painting
handed in by Mrs. Winslow, was very no—
ticeable. Another very unique picture
should not go unnoticed ; it was a pleasing
portrait of little “ Nellie Smith," infant
daughter-oi the Rector, beautilully cuéased
in a lrume made of thread and silk, in imita-
tlon of mahogany and gilt, ingeniously
wrought by Miss Julia E. Mosher, of Red
~ Creek, N. Y. The picture was purchased at
$10, by a liberal lady, and the young lldy
highly complimented for her skill. A beau-
tiful toilet stand with mirror and everything
complete, was presented to the fair by Mrs.
Charles J. Ketchum, which was purchased
by Mrs. Winslow for fifty dollars. , Two
very elegant chairs, the scat ol one being
made of miniature pieces oi velvet and silk
cut in octagon shape, with the colors neatly
blended, elaborately carved and upholster-
ed in Bridgeport, valued at $100, was pre-
sented by Mrs. Rebecca Nichols; the Other,
acaurp chair, the scat elegantly wrought in
Worsted and gold and finished in elegant
style in New York, for the occasion, valued
at the satire price, was presented by Mrs.
Winslow. We saw btit one bed quilt on ex-
hibition, the neglect to furnish more wascx-
cusablc, as the summer season is upon us
and these articles can be dispensed with.
All the ladies receive much praise for their
industry and perseverance. ‘ ‘
We noticed among the drawings the names
of some of the prominent Southern Gener-
als, such as Lee, Beauregard, Johnston, &c.
We were glad to see them patronize north-
ern enterrrise so liberally and hope they
will be none the poorer by theirinvestinents.
“Gen. Rush" Was present throughout the
entire fair, and D’Artois’s assistants had all
they could do to supply the company with
ice cream, every one appearing to be pas-
sionately fond of the article; this stand
drove a thriving business, D‘Artois had 'giv-
on it a temperature equal to the northern
latitude of We. lrussia. Every one spoke
in praise of the music; the rain prevented
the Band from playing in the open air only
at intervals through the evenings; Norwalk
people may well be proud of their Band.
In consequence of the rain every evening
from the 4th through the week, the fair will
be held this (Monday) evening, but should it
storm lbis‘evening we learn that it. will be
Continued until a clear evening unless a gen-
eral Leluge should appear, when .the Valua-
bles will be removed to some “ark" of safe-
ty. Thus far the receipts of the Fair footup
$800; the lull amount of the net proceeds
will be sent you in time for your next issue.

The Government makes a donation of 12,800 acre!
of land to the mile, amounting to 20,032,000 aeres,
estimated to be worth.$30,000,000, making the total
resources, exclusive of the capital, $118,416,000: but
the full valiie of the lands cannot now be realized.
The authorized Capital Stock of the Company is
one hundred million dollars. of which five millions
have already been paid in, and of which it is not
supposed that more than twenty-five millions at
most will be required. ,
.The cost of the road is estimated by competent en-
gineers to be about one hundred million dollars,
- PROSPECTS FOR BUSINESS.
The railroad connection between Omaha and the
East is now complete, and the earnings of the Union
Pacific on the sections already finished for the first,
two weeks in May were $113,000. These sectional
earnings as the road progresses will much more
than pay the interest on the Company’s bonds, and
the through business over the only line of railroad.
between the Atlantic and Pacific must be immense.
VALUE AND SECURITY OF THE BONDS.
The Company respectfully submit, that the above
statement of facts fully demonstrates the security of
their Bonds, and as additional proofthey would sug-
gest that the Bonds now Offered are less than ten
million dollars on 517 miles of road, on which over
twenty million dollars have already been expended ;
—on 330 miles of this road the cars are now run-
ning, and .the remaining 187 miles are nearly
completed. ,
At the present rate of premium on gold these bonds
pay an annual interest on the presentcost of
NINE PER CENT.,
and it is believed that on the completion of the road
like the Government Bonds, they will go above par.
The Company intend to sell but a limited amount at
the present low rate, and retain the right to advance
the price at their option.

INTESTIN AL WORMS
Are among the first to undefmine the constitution. .
in the list of diseases. They often occasion severe
disease, ending sometimes fatally, particularly when
they ascend to the stomach. Their presence In their
most ordinary situation is attended with unfavora-
ble elects upon the general health.
EMINENT MEN ASSERT
That all are more or less troubled with worms, and
that may die annually item this cause, who by the
timely administration ofapropet- remedy, would be
saved. As FELLows' Worn: Lomezs may be tu-
ken without any unpleasant result, and as most
children are fond of them, their use I: recommold
ed to those apparently healthy, and thus dispel the
cause ofwhat would produce suflerlng. .
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU USE.
Various remedies have from time to time, been
recomeuded, such as Cslomel,0il of Wormued,Thr
pentine, &c., so that dangerous and eventual con-
sequences are produced. The neceislty of (safe and
sure remedy has caused much research and study by
the proprietors of FELLows’ Worn: Loszst. They
are positively safe, pleasant and ehctual. They do
notkill the worms, but act by making their dwel-
ling places disagreeable to them. In order however
to guard consumers against deception byl Me com-
pound, the analysis of Dr. A. A. Hayes,‘ State As-
sayer, proving the above statements is annexed .—
“I have analyzed the‘ Worm Lozenges pre and by
Mess. Fellows & Co.,and find that they are gee from

Mussns. FELLows It; Co.—Gents : I accidentally
sent the other day to a store for' some Vermifuge;
and the man, not: having much on hand. sent me
some of your WORM LOZENGES. My children show-
ed symptoms of worms at the time. I gave them ac-
cording to directions, and in twenty-four hours from
the time they commenced taking the Lozenges, one
(a boy about five years old) passed twenty-five large
worms ; the other (a girl three years old) had passed
twelve ; and I deem it but. just to say, that from this
slight acquaintance with your remedy, I feel satisfi-
ed that your Lozenges are cheap, convenient, safe,
and more cfi‘ectual than the ordinary remedies ; and
as such I cheerfully rec‘commend it to 811* heads of

CARLETON, St. John, N. B., Nov. 11th, 1866,
MR. EDITOR—I was induced to try FuLLows’ Loz-
L'Nols, having had a number of children under my
care whose stomachs were so irritable the ordinary
medicines could not be retained a moment ; and the
success that followed their use was so complete that
I can recommend them as one of the most: pleasant
and safe medicines that can be administered.

Mussns. FELLows’ 5500.: This is to certify that
my little boy, aged six years, having been much
troubled with worms of late, I administered four of
your WORM Loznnons, as per directions, and in nine
hours after he passed several large worms. These
Lozenges are particularly valuable, as the children
are fond Of them. You are at. liberty to use this for
the benefit others. MA'I‘TIIEIV HARRISON.
ST. JOHN N. 12.. Oct; 30, 1856.
Messrs. FELLOWS & 00., It is due to you, the beads
of families, and to the public at large, that I should
give a’statementol‘ the effects of your Worm Lozen-
ges in my lamily. My daughter aged about five years
had been troubled with a severe cough nearly two
years, first in Derclrcstcr Mass, where our doctor at-
tended her for some time finding he did not help her-
I procured syrups and other common remedies, with-
out giving relief. since I came to this city, I procur-
ed medical aid, and finding the eh ild grew worse, so
that we really thought she would die, we despair-ed
olgettinga remedy. .Atlnstalady friend called in
and assured us that the child was troubled with
worms, and that the cough originated Rom that
cause. I administered your Worm Lozenges this
morning ; we are astonished ; the child passed over-
a pint of worms, some as large as my little finger.
Our.- babe.ouly seventeen months old, ate two Loz-
cages, and although seemingly healthy, it passed a
worm at least. eight inches long. I am happy to say
that the little girl who forgive days had eaten scarce-
ly anything, has a goodappetite, and is new doing
well. ' ‘ ' «LrHATl'IELD.
