An Expression of Confidence.
" Geo. P. Rowell & Co., the pub
lishers of the American Newspaper
Directory, undertake to rate news
paper circulations very much as the
mercantile agencies give the capital
and credit ratings of the business
community. About one publisher in
ten is willing to have his exact issue
known, and tells it with truthful pre
cision ; but some of the other nine de
cline to tell the facts concerning their
own issues because they assert that
those who do tell, do not tell truly.
Messrs. Rowell & Co., after an ex
pel ience of twenty years, have come
to the conclusion that the facts will
not sustain this view ; and in the
twentieth annual issue of their book,
now in the binder's hands, they plain
ly designate every paper which is ra
ted in exact accordance with a detail
ed statement from the publisher ; and
offer to pay a reward of one hundred
dollars for each and every instance of
a misstatement for which a publisher
is resonsible. The Londonderry
Siftek is one of the papers which is
willing to have it known how many it
prints and whose good faith the Di
rectory publishers express a willing
ness to guarantee to the extent of
one hundred dollars.

be well known and fashionable people, as
indeed no other but people of means and
of leisure could ever be able to contract
such a habit.
The opium dealing firms sell 'from'two
to five cans per day, each can weighing
about four ounces. Most of the wholesale
orders come from towns and cities in and
around New York state, and only now and
then the native American customers from
np town come in to buy their supply. Say
they only sell an average of three cans per
day. At wholesale rates, which is 8.33
per can for China imported goods, but
when retailed out by the fifty cente' worth
at a time it would bring it up to about
$10 to $11 per can. At $10, which is the
lowest possible price per can, sixty-six
cans amount to $U60 per day, or $1340,900
per year.
There are eleven Joints. The majority
of these import their own opium, said to
be direct from China, but the greater part
of which comes from Victoria, B. C. One
of these places, which is the best Chinese
joint in town, sells at retail on Sundays
alone from ten to twelve cans, while the
second best place sells from eight to ten
cans on Sundays. On an average these
joints dispose of five cans a day. These
places calculate to make from i to $3 on
each can of Chinese imported opium, but
they are able to make more when they
mix the Victoria ia with the pore. Thus
it can easily be seen how nearly 1.000.000
changes hands for opium each year.

The referee found from the evi
dence in the case that Chas. W. Fish
was a lunatic at the time of the mar
riage and has been ever since. Judge
Taft declared the marriage annualled.
Landman vs Emerson. In this
case the court overruled a motion on
the part of the defence to dismiss.
The question raised was whether the
case involved the question of title.
Hosford vs Thusber. This' case
was set for the jury, but it was tak
en from the jury list and heard by the
court. The case was an action of
trover to recover for one ton of meal
which the plaintiff claimed was ob
tained under false pretenses. The
case is now with the court.
Provost -vs Provost. In this case a
bill of devorce was granted appellant
Addie K. Provost of Bellows Falls
for intolerable severity,
Stanley vs Stanley. In this case a
bill was granted Gilbert A. Stanley
or vv umington for willful desertion
Mate vs llevdlo Howard. In this
case, after some discussion between
Mr. TTaterman and state's attorney
Mann, the court ordered the entry on
the docket of "not to be carried for
ard" and ordered the recognizance
discharged.
Court adjourned at 4 p. m. until 9,
Thursday morniBg. The jury have
had no chance so far to weigh any
questions of right and wrong, and un
less they are called on Thursday, it
looks as if they would not have. The
only possible cases where a jury will
be needed are those of State vs Frank
Stowell, and Bradley vs Bemis. No
one thinks court will extend into next
week.

wrote a letter to my family paper, briefly mentioning how my
health bad been restored, aud offering to send tho full particulars

In reply, I have described my case and the treatment used,

had commenced the use of ' Favorite Prescription,' had sent the

local treatment so fully and plainly laid down therein, and were
much better already."
