Hilly Newhouse was united to a young lady of Portland, in this city, early Monday morning. The happy pair took the noon train for Port- laud.

On Monday we examined a new inven tion by Dr. Smith, of this city, which is certainly the neatest and handiest thing in its line that we have ever seen. It is a lead pencil sharpener, and is different from all other pencil sharpeners in this, that it remains on tbe pencil and acts as a fender to the lead. When tbe lead wears down to the wood, all you've got to do is to give the feu der or sharpener a turn or two, and the wood is nicely cut away from the lead, and the point of the pen cil nicely sharpened ready fbr use. It is certainly a very complete and handy invention, and as it can be afforded very cheap, will sell by the million. Dr. Smith is a genius, and bound to get away with a pile of chickamon rn the strength of this invention. Success to our boys.
