andeentering the guard room. he called
loudly for assistance. Some of the guards
Immediately levelled their muskets al him.
:" National Guards" cried the governor.
"is this the way you rewa I'd the victory I
obtained at Puente de la Reynar?" He
was answered by discharge of muskets,
and his body was afterwards run through in
twenty places by the bayonets of the Ma.
tional Guard.
In the mean time, the civil governor. the
distinguished count Donanio, hearing the
generate beat, repaired to the convent
where the troops were quartered, and put
himself at their head but he soon found
that they were not to be depended upon in a
contest with the National Guard: and up-
on the approach of a large body of Nation
al Lancers shouting loudly "the Constitu-
ton forever death to Tyrants Death
to the Pastcleros" (seeming friends but
real foes to liberty y" Down with the royal
statue!" &c. be retired within the walls of
the convent, and ordered the gates to be
closed. A large body of the insurgents
now collected, beating drums, firing mus.
kets, and uttering opstreporous cries of
"Down with the Republic !" &c. A short
parley being held between the regular
troops and the National Guard, the former
left the convent and joined the insurgents,
shouting Union for everp '-and on point
ing out to the Guards the governor, who
was attempting to make his escape, disgai-
sed in the dress Of common soldier, he
was instantly shot dead, and his body drag.
ged into the public square, where it was ex-
posed until the next morning.
On the Goth inst, the constitution of 1912
was solemnly proclaimed and sworn to,
and a new junta, or board of government
established, the president of which was the
same commandant of carabineers, who
presided over the provisional one. The
new governor had forcibly recommended
the maintenance ofthe public tranquility.

kalamazoo q. Iona Land Ofice.-There
having been some misunderstanding and diff
ficulty respecting applicants for land in
these districts. for the information of the
public and those concerned, we have obtain
ed the following particulars.
1t is reported that when the land Office at
Kalamazoo was closed, individuals or COM
panies made out applications to purchase
public lands in the hope of obtaining pre-.
cedence therefore when the office would be
again opened, and that such applications
were also made embracing whole townships,
and large portion Of the Grand river dis
trict, before the operations in that district
commenced, when the law intended should
not take place until the LIST August 1886,
and which could not take place for some
weeks subsequently, in order TO give time
to the land office in Kalamazoo TO prepare
the books, maps &C., to be transferred.
We are automatically informed that the
Register Of the land office for the Grand
river district has been instructed by the
commissioner of the general land office,
that mere applications for the purchase of
lands made to the register of the land Office
at kalamazoo, where the money has not
been paid, no matter from whatt0atisc, ~
not considered as binding at the Office for
the Grand river district, and the register for
that district has been directed to pay no
respect to them. On the contrary, he has
been directed, after the ceipts Of the maps
and books, to regard all lands in his district
as remaining unsold, which are notindicated
by the maps or books to have been sold, or
otherwise legally appropriated or reserved,
prior to the first day of August:-and ap-
Plication to purchase the same, SO far as
they have heretofore been offered at public
sale, and remain subject to private entry,
are to be made at his ofiice.--Dctroit Free

Father Of all men, and, ofequal and Impair
tial love TO all his offspring, without respect
of persons.
The promotion of pure and undefled
religion as defined by the apostle James,
we propose as the beginning and the ending,
the means and the the object of our lnbors.
Men will never walk humbly with God
while they walk arrogantly towards man.
IF n man love not his brother whom he
hath seen, how can he love God, whom
he hath not seen" When the solemnity of
mans inalenable rights are daily apprecia,-
ed, then, and not until then, will men begin
to conceive the nature and magnitude OF
HIS claims, in whose sight the nations OF
the earth are as the small dust of the
balance.
Our labors therefore will not be confined
to the subject of SLAVERY. INTEMpER-
ANCE, GAMING AND WAN are giant enemies
of our race, closely allied TO slavery, and
demanding the ceaseless opposition of the
Friend Of Man. Violence will Cypress
men, so long rs men avenge themselves by
violence. The dishonesty that covets
wealth without earning it, and seeks gain
without an equivalent is the same principle
that fattens upon the unrequited labor of
of the slave. And so long as our rulers
drink wine, and our princes strong drink
so long vii. they forget the law, and per-
vert the judgment of the afflicted There
is no escape from slavery, but by the free
dom of virtue--no charter ofhuman liberty.
but the law Of the Creator.
THE FRIEND OF MAN by seeking to-
cultivate and extend the religion of holy
love and of the Bible, may hope, in some
good measure, to escape the trammels of
narrow bigotry; avoiding at the same time,
the spurious liberality that deems it heaven
ly charity to shake hands with sin. By
supporting the principles of liberty and the
practices of righteousness-hy rebukng
lordly inquity in high places-by thwarting
/ the selfish purposes of partizan rivals Of
every name, we may hope to escape the
pollutng infection of party politics, and
(while seeking to secure the liberties of the
/ people, afford some guarantee that we will
not become the tools Of demagogues or of
men in power.
Our departments of religious and secular
/ intelligence, and miscellaneous reading &C.
ections, will receive constant attention. and
vary in extent, from time to time, according
to the amount of interesting matter afloat,
and according to the wants and exigencies

RECOMMENDATIONS.

The Journal Of Education, one of the
most deservedly celebrated literary pubica-
ions, says Of this work--"This is one Of the
most judicious and practical books Tor a pri-
mary school, we have yet seen. The Geo:
graphical details are well selected, and the
chapter on natural history will furnish much
food for thought, and will aid the early for
nation OF good mental habits. The civil
history is sufficiently copious Tor the purpos-
es OF such volume, and the account OF the
hardships OF the early settlers is highly in
structive and entertaining. Books, such as
this, contain the true elements OF enlighten-
ed patriotism, and possess much higher
value than is apparent at first sight"
Zadock Thompson, "A. NJ. says " am
much pleased with the Geography and His
tory of Vermont by the Rev, S. r. Hall,
which you lately put into my hands. Ii is a
work which | believe might be profitabIy
introduced into all the primary schools Of

JEFFERSON AND HARRISON.

1t has been denied by some Of the Jack
sonians that William Henry Harrison re-
ceived Office from Thomas Jefferson. Spea
kers and hearers on that subject are refer
red to the first volume of the Executive
Journal of the United States Senate, page
AL, where they will find it thus written:
Il nominate William Henry Harrison tc
be Governor of the Indiana Territory, from
the 18th day of May next, when his present
commission us Governor will expire" A
gain
81 nominate William Henry Harrison OF
Indiana, to be commissioner to enter into
any treaty, or treaties which may be neces-
sary, with any Indian tribes, northwest of
the Ohio, and within the territory of the
United States, on the subject of the boun-
Diary, or lands"

HEAR AN OPPONENT OF GENER
AL HARRISON.

"General Harrison is a gentleman for
whom we have entertained the highest es-
TEEN, and the most sincere friendship, and
well he knows our friendly feelings towards
him, and is no less well acquainted with
our opposition to him as candidate for the
presidency oft United States nor will he
say that he believes we are secretly favora-
BILE, to him for that office. In politics we
most essentially differ, and he knows the
fact before this day, or yesterday. He also
knows that it has long been compact be-
tween us not TO suffer politics TO disturb
that friendship which has for at least four
teen years existed between us. Is it sur
prising, then, that we forhear to abuse the
man towards whom we entertain the most
friendly and respectful feelings? Will our
opposition to him as a candidate be consid-
cred the less sincere because we do not
sully our columns with scurrility and abuse
| of the man whose person and character we
admire, respect and esteem ?--We say that
General Harrison is an honest man--we soy
he has rendered great and eminent service
TO his c,nltry-we say that he has neuer yet
had sufficient compensation for those services
we say that his character has been trd-
d,iced, and we have used our feeble eXer-
tons to defend him, and until he becomes
an altered man iOe ioiH neuer array ourselves
in the ranks Of his uilEfers."
These remarks are from the pen of Mo-
SEES Dawson Esq. Editor of the "Cincinnati
1 Advertiser, and Ohio Phnnix," man who
has supported General Jackson and all the
measures of his administration since his
first election. Let the prosecutors and
slanderers of brave and good man hide
their heads, when they have read this ample
and honorable confession from political
opponent.

accommodation of the sick, where he may
always be found, except when visiting his

vote his whole time and attention to the
science of Medicine.

for gentlemen and ladies'; and is, in every
respect, convenient for the accommodation
of the sick. The location being central

VOUR attention is moment called TO

~
Il little School Book entitled the
CHILD'S ASSISTANT,
TO knowledge Of the Geography and his
tory OF Vermont, by S. II. Hall. 1t has al
ready passed through six large editions, and
is now offered Tor sale by the publishers,
with the beliei'that it is one OF the best ele-
mentary works ever put into the hands OF
children. The present system Of putting a
child to study the Geography Of the World,
before he can ,ven bound his o,on toicn or
county is certainly wrong. How many there
are who can answer almost any question
respecting the Geography Of the World and
are yet unable to give the boundaries OF the
County in which they live, much less Of the
several counties in the State and how many
have a a compend Of General History, while
they remain ignorant OF the History OF
their native State This book is intended to
supply this defect in the education of the
children OF Vermont. A child should irst
study the Geography and History OF his
own State and then some elementary Geog-
raphy OF the World: and next he may take
a larger Geography.
