place near where the fox chase started, went
into the woods, and hearing a whining, look-

in between two big rocks, where he had been

‘ Centennial Letter.
In my previous letter I left the reader just
emerging from the minaturc Railway, within
the grounds, where I had advised him to
ride, in order to get the Geography of the
place ; and now having seen the outside of
all the buildings, which one should he enter
first, to get an interior view, I should suggest
the main building, for a part of the day;
you should have a catalogue—and mark the
various countries,wllosc products you wish
particularly to see, and remember, that you
cannot do this building in one day ; to walk
through all its aisles without stopping to look
at anything, would be 11 miles, take a few
hours each day, and do not confine yourself
to one building an entire day ; Australia,
Brazil, Italy, cheden, China, Japan, you
will fiiid very interesting, not forgetting
Great Britian and your own Native land;
Australia and Brazil will take half a day,—
between two and three o’clock, take another
ride on the railway and go out to Lamber’s for
dinner, if you go late, you will get better
attention; after dinner visit Connecticut
State House, where you or your ladies can
rest, or recline if very weary; to finish up
the day the Government building will be
very interesting ; see the girls make cartrid-
gcs—see the models (life size) of all the fish
in the country used for food—the wax figures
in uniform as worn when Washington was
in command, the models of all kinds of sail-
ing vessels,the Indian exhibition, Ordinance,
andLapparatus for coast survey. This will
be quite enough for one day.
In choosing a Hotel or boarding-house, let
it be in the city, away :from the Centennial
grounds, in consequence of so much new
earth having been turned up in that vicinity,
malaria exists, and very many persons who
have gone there in good health, come home
sick, in consequence of over exertion, want
of food at the proper time, and drinking the
water, which is deciedly bad, I took the
precaution to take a bottle of Jamaica Ginger
(no brandy) a. teaspoon Of that with a tum-
bler of water will prevent any ill effects
from the water; leave the grounds early,
and go late in the morning, after the sun has
dried the moisture from the surface. Sec-
ond day, where shall we begin ? Why, at
the Main building, where we 'left off the
previous day. When near cheden, look
for life figures, grouped in various ways, as
if about their daily occupation; in the Jap—
anese department, the wonderful carving,
also in China, carving in Ivory and beautiful
vases, not far from either of these depart-
ments, is the wonderful show of Diamonds
and Silver Ware from Tiffany’s, and from
Starr dz Marcus. The afternoon of this day,
after a rest, and a good cup ‘of coffee at the
Vienna Bakery,—cannot be better spent,
than in Agricultural Hall, one of the most
interesting buildings on the grounds. You
can afford to give this building twice as
much time as Machinery Hall, where you
had better go the morning of the third day.
First look at the great engine that drives all
the machinery, the beautiful waterfall, the
engine and pumps, go up in the elevator over
the waterfall, in fact go up whenever you
can, and get the distant views inside and out-
side, get pictures in your mind, that will
remain with you through life. From Ma-
chinery Hall, you will pass out through the
adjacent building, called the leather building,
here, those interested in shoes and leather,
can spend some time. By this time, if my
advice has been followed, you will have
learned enough to finish the exhibition ac-
cording to your own ideas. Ihave purposely
left out speaking of the Art-Building and
Photographic Hall, for the reason that many
feel as your worthy Senior felt, when he
expressed himself to me, after I got in the
Art Gallery, I had no desire to go anywhere
else ; suppose you should spend all your
time in the Art Gallery, if in after years you
were asked, what did you see at the great
exposition ofthe work of all. .nations P I
only saw the Art Gallery. But I must close,
I promised you in my first letter Gen. Haw-
ley’s speech before the National Photographic
Convention, and some description of Photo-
graphic Hall, Art Gallery, &c., which I
shall reserve for another and last letter.

Letters From the People.
_...I.‘_.
Nonwa ', Sept. 11, 1876.
To THE EDlTons OF THE. .hTTE.—Having
listened yesterday afterli‘goiiyto the stirring
and eloquent address and) arguments, among
other speakers, of the Hon. James Gallagher,
of New Haven, at the Amphitheatre Grounds,
all of which was highly acceptable, com-
mendable and praiseworthy; but having
heard from the same gentleman upon other
occasions, equally stirring and decided ap-
peals as a prominent leader and champion in
the interests of a party, considered by some,
of doubtful principles, whose main hope and
reliance for success seems to lie in this same
“liquor traffic and free drinks" so strongly
denounced, the query arises, which are we
to accept as orthodox—this or that? Where
is the consistency, and how can the two con-
flicting interests be made to harmonize? Or
are we in these latter days of progress and re-
form to be furnished with some new rule,
precept or principle, whose superior and con-
densed wisdom of this enlightened age, shall
eclipse and superccde that of olden time re-
corded in Luke, 16, 13, whereby we may ac-
cept both, or is there a mistake about the
whole matter? Please through your columns,
if possible, clear up the mystery, enlighten
and oblige a CONFUSED LISTENER.
Mr. Gallagher has long been a rantanker-
ous democrat, blit he is always independent
and very likely to fly the track, if the party
don’t go to suit him. He is equally earnest
as a temperanCe reformer and a total abstin-
ance man. His political consistency has
never been as uniform as his temperance
principles and practices. Of course he
knows, that the old hunker democracy of
this State are as closely allied to the rum
interest as thebark to a tree—Eds.
o
Meeting.
It was, evident to the most casual observer,
says the Newark Advertiser, that the camp
meeting which drew such throngs on the last
two Sundays in August, in Grove street,a few
hundredyards beyond the city limits, was
prosecuted by Colonel John Taylor on “busi-
ness” principles. The Colonel was observed
to keep his eagle eye on the contribution hat,
even when most deeply enthused with the
spirit of exhortation, and at the conclusion of
each collection episode he was observed to
pounce upon the hat and its contents like a
“Julie bug upon a possum,” if an Ethiopian
expression may be used. The five tents, too,
doubtless paid tribute to the head centre of
this sylvan assemblage, and it required no or-
dinary figuring to foretell a sum total of con
siderable extent to somebody.
Finally the meeting closed,and when Lewis
Shorts, the duly authorized Treasurer, inter-
posed to take charge of the receipts, the Rev-
erend Colonel folded up the stamps in his best
bandanna, and with the remark “I'll jis take
this yere money home and count it up,"
passed from the astonished gaze of his colored
brethren, like the “baseless fabric of a vis-
ion.” Oncc again he returned, but the
brethren saw him but a moment, and instead
of a plump bandanna full of pence with which
he went to his family altar, he laid before the
Treasurer a shrivelcd heap of stamps, in all
less than $5. Then came .a “ call" to
a colored camp meeting at Egg Harbor, and
Colonel Taylor, like the ever ready Christian
worker that he is, promptly responded. And
now, the brethren who participated with the
versatile Colonel in Grove street meeting, go
about the streets mourning the loss of their
stamps, while constable McCormick, with a
warrant for Taylor's arrest,on a charge which
Justice Paulin will find it difficult to sustain,
shadows our depots in daily expectation of
the good man’s return. [Is this our whilom

While Mr. Thomas was making “captive”

his balloon brushed against the tall Insurance
building and caught on a spike, letting out
the gas. The collapsed balloon fell over the
south end of the building, while the basket
with its passengers hung from the front, full
one hundred andfortg feetfrom the sidewalk.
A more perilous position could hardly be im-
agined, and in the great mass of people below
many screamed and turned away, unable to
gaze upon the scene. The four men in the
balloon finally succeeded in reaching the
roof in safety.

In Memoriam.
Dn sinner. ST. JOHN died September 9th 1876.
On Saturday, just as the dim uncertain
dawn was gliding into the steady, settled
light of (lay, the Master’s summons came and
found the faithful disciple ready. With un-
faltering courage and steadfast faith, the
tired pilgrim laid aside his staff and passed
into his everlasting rest. The life that has
just closed, was one of such singular beauty .
and unselfishness, that it calls for more than
a passing notice. A marked feature of Dr.
St. John’s character was his utter disregard
of self. His life was spent in the service of
others; his skill, his time and his talent were
given as freely to the humble as to the great,
to the unlettered as to the wise. In many
sick chambers, there will be vain longings for
the hand that alleviated suffering, for the
cheering presence that came like a benedic-
tion in the midst of weariness and pain.
There are many, too, who will miss the help
and instruction that were always to be had
for the asking. The people of the beautiful
little town of which he was so proud. and to.
whose prosperity lie so largely contributed,-..
will follow him to his grave, feeling that
they have lost their benefactor and friend,
but he leaves them as a precious legacy, the
noble example he has given, the memory of
his unswerving integrity, and the unfailing .
‘ love and courtesy which Were the rule of his
life. Within sight of the church which he
loved so well, and in which he was an earn-
est worker, and under the shadow of the
beautiful trees his own hands have plant-
ed, will'lic a grave , dear to the hearts of his
fellow townsmen. At the sight of that sim-
ple mound, many an eye will moisten, many
a lip grow unsteady, as day by day the sense
of personal loss becomes more keenly felt.
It is a sublime thing to look back upon a re-
cord, extending over fifty years, whose puri-
ty is unsullied by a single blot, and against
which the Divmc Hand has surely written,
“ Well done good and faithful servant.” To
a life like this, death is prmnotz'on, and where
there has been such a consistent following of
the Blessed Master, heaven must méan sim-
ply, larger opportunity, 9. more extended

Various portions of the western half of the
main buildingal the Centennial, which in-
cludes the sections allotted to the foreign
countries, have of late been infested with
rats. The unusually large size and other
peculiarities of the vermin have induced the
impression that some of these were brought
thither from on board ship in the goods for
the English and Norwegian departments.
Some of these have been caught by the jani-
tors and firemen 'with a baited hook and line,
in the ordinary style of fishing,and so rapidly
have they increased within the laat two
weeks that resort has been had to traps and
like expedients.

If the enemy of mankind was permitted to exert
his diabolical ingenuity ill the invention 'of it new
disease, he could scarcely devise one more worthy
of his genius than dyspepsia. The dyspeptic suf-
ferer is tormented by symptoms rcsmbling those of
almost every known malady, and is often worried
into monomania by these conflicting and pcrplcx
ing manifestations. A favorite though absurd hal-
lucination of the victim of chronic indigestion is
that he or she has heart disease. Dyspepsia has
often been pronounced incurable, but experience
has shown that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters will
vanquish it, 'togcther with the constipation and
bilious derangement which usually accompany it.
Diseases ol'thc kidneys and supposed rheumatic
pains are so frequent concombitants of dyspepsia,
but they, too, succumb to the above named inval-
uable corrective. _

LINIlVlENTS.
White, for Human Family.
Yellow, for Horses and Animals.
These Liniments are simply the wonder of the
world. Their effects are little less than marvel-
lous, yet there are somethings which they will
not do. They will not cure cancer or mend broken
bones, but they will alWays allay pain. They
have straightened fingers, cured chronic rheuma-
tism of many years standing, and taken the pain
from terrible burns and scalds, which has never
been done by any other article.
The White Llnlment is for the human
family. It will drive Rheumatism,Sclatica, and
Nciiralgia from the system; cure Lumbago, Chil-
blains, Palsy, Itch, and most Cutaneous Erup-
tions; it extracts frost from frozen hands and
feet. and the pol-0'9 of hue: and stings of
venomous reptiles; it subdues swellings, and alle-
viates pain of every kind.
For sprains or bruises it is the most otent rem-
ody ever discovered. The Centaur lnimeut is
used With great efficacy for Sore Throat, Tooth-
ache, aned prcant, Earache, and Weak
Back. The followmg is but a sample of numerous
testimonials :
“INDIANA lloiln, J err. 00., Inn, May 28, 1873.
. “I think it my duty to inform you that. I have
211601 ed much With swollen feet and chords I
have not been free from these swellings In eight
years. Now I am peit'cctly well, thanks to the
Contaur Lininicnt. The Liniment ought to be ap-
plied warm. BENJAMIN BROWN.”
. Theyrool‘is in the trial. It is reliable, it is han-
dy, it is cheap and every family should have it.
To the sick and bed-ridden, the halt, and lame,
to the wounded and sore, we say, “Come and
be healed.”
' To the poor and distressed who have spentthcir
money for worthless medicines, a bottle of Cell-
taur Llnlmeut will be given without charge.
The Yellow Centaur Liniment
is adapted to the tough muscles, cords and flesh of
horses and animals“ It hasperformed more won-
derful cures of Spavm, Strains, Wind-galls, Scrat-
ches, chcn'y. and general Lameness, than all
other remedies in existence. Read what the great
Expressmen say of it: . . . .
