Wo arc glad to notice that the
new purchasers of the Air-Line Rail
road arc breaking down the former
prejudice existing against Lula, the
present terminus of the Northeastern
Railroad, and have made it one of
their most important stations. Their
regular passenger trains will, on and
after Sunday, 13th inst., take both
breakfast and supper there. This,
together with the fact lliat the large
and elegant hotel of J. II. Banks’,
just about being completed, will add
greatly to the importance of the place.
We hear also that this will soon be
a regular recognized station on the
Air-Line Railroad, with tickets sold
ami freight delivered as at any other
station, which privileges it has not
herotoforo enjoyed, because it was so
near Belton, ail already established
station. This step gives another
strong evidence of the friendly rela
tion* between the Air-Line pur
chasers and tho Northeastern Rail
road, which is of great interest to the
citizens of Athens.

Savage animals are not yet extinct
in Vermont, as Thomas Peggington
of East Richlbrd found to his cost a
few mornings ago. He was on his
way to his sugar orchard, in company
with his dog, when Tie suddenly came
face to face with a huge panther.
The dog was torn to pieces in a
twinkling, and the beast then turned
his attention to Mr. Peggington, who,
though nnarmed, kept his presene of
mind, and avoided the creature’s first
spring by falling on his face. The
second time lie was caught by the
shoulder, and a deperate struggle
followed, both rolling over and over
on the ground and finally falling over
a precipice 20 feet, high, which ended
the combat. Mr. Peggington lay
unconscious for several hours until
found by his friends, and lie is so
severely injured that his recovery is
doubtful. The panther has not been
seen since the fray, but it is thought
he was hadlv hurt by the fall, and a
party of hunters are looking for
him.— Spriny/iehl Republican.

doubtless make a good officer. He

A Good Map.
The map of the United States and
Europe, just published, is one of the
most elaborate and complete we have
seen. This map is gotten up ou a
new plan, showing on the front side
the United States from the Atlantic
to the Pacific Ocean, and every
county is plainly named ami colored
separately. Each railroad is also
laid down and the distances between
each 8tn.i»n plainly marked. On the
reverse side is a fine map of the
world, and altogether it is a most
desirable reference to merchants,
business men and shippers. Mr.
Cadwell, the agent, will soon canvass
the city for subscribers, and we
recommend it to all those who are in
need of a map. Price $3 00. See

Interpretation of a Will.—A
very rich merchant who had an only
smi. made his will, by which he gave
all his wealth, which amounted to
throe hundred thousand francs, to
certain monks, leaving them to give
his son such a sum as they wished.
The "merchant died ; the monks took
all to themselves without_ wishing tc
give anything to the heir. The lat
ter complained to the viceroy, who,
having seen the will, asked the monks,
what they offe. ed to the son.
“Ten thousand francs,” they re*>
plied.
“ (Jon wish, then, to have all the
rest!”
“Yes, my lord; we demanded the
execution of that will.”
“ That, is just,” said the viceroy,
“ lint you do not understand it prop
erly. It is said the son shall have
thatjwhieli you wish; you grant ten
thousand to the heir: it is then two
hundred and ninety thousand that
you want. All! well, following the
course of the will, this sum is set
apart for the son. I order you to
give it to him; the ten thousand
francs remaining are therefore yours.”

Good Advice.—Now is the time
of year for Pheumonia, Lung Fever,
&c. Every family should have a
bottle of Boschf.e’3 German Syrup.
Don’t allow for one moment that
cough to take hold of your child,
our family or yourself. Consump
tion, Asthma, Pheumonia, Croup,
Hemorrhages, and other fatal diseases
may set in. Although it is true
German Syrup is curing thousands
of these dreaded diseases, yet it is
much bolter to have it at hand when
three doses will cure you. One Bot
tle will last your whole family a win
ter and keep you safe from danger.
If you are consumptive, do not vest
until you have tried this remedy.
