iUrth new edition oil the Cal1mny hrst Origna-
ted by Horace Stec'e, of the Montpelier Patriot,
in which Mr.. Jarvis of Wcathcrsfcld, member
| of the late convention for considering the pro-

cx-Exccllcnt editor of the Sentinel has now
given the infamous tale place in the appropri.
ate columns of his paper, in the hope that the
poison may find its way into the minds of the
citizens of this county just at the eve of election,
when it cannot be scasonably contradictcd.
That portion Of Mr.. Jarvis speech in which the

hereafter lay before our readers. 1t carries with
