GREAT EXClTEMENT.THEW ETMORE
LETTERS.

The public curiosity has been on ip-ioe for a
few days past, in consequence of an injunction
which has been laid upon the editors of The New
Era, and Others. at the instance Of Robert c. Wet
more to prohibit them from publishing cGiain let
tiers written by said Weimore TO the Hon. Chas.
F. Mitchell, the forger, ant Chairman Of the Con-
gressonal Wing Committee of correspondence, dur
ing tie "iog cabin and hard cider campaign" 4
also those to James N. Reynolds, one Of the Tip
and 1'y' stump orators and the explorer of Simn,'
Hole, and TO one Marshall o. Roberts, which were
written between the LIST Of December, 1910, and
the Goth Of March, 1871.
These letters il is rumored, contain proofs as
strong as Holy Wrir of the deep laid and nelar-
Gus transactions of the Pipe Layers not only Of
the city Of New York, but throughout the Union
The letters givcnup by Mitchell, expose the whole
system Of fraud thai, has been carried on, conpar-
ed to which the disclosures of Genlworlh sink in
to insignifeance. That these letters Of an i'm
portant character, is admitted fom the great anxi-
ETY. manifested by WelmQre and others TO keep
their contents from the public eye That The con-
tents of these letters will be made public, there
cannot for moment remain doubt, as it is lin
possible that the Injunction ofihe Chancellor in this
case, can hold, for il il does destroys the boast,
ed liberty Of the press and establishes censorship
over ii, which can never be tolerated IN free
country. Hudson Gazeiie.

DAMAGE BY LIGHTNING.

During thunder storm which visited this place
and vicinity Monday morning, the dwelling house
of Mr. Buttrck, of Fairhaven village, struck by
the electric fluid, but are happy to add that no
lives were lost The shock judging from its effects,
must have been unusually heavy. The fluid appa-
rently struck the chimney in the south extremity of
the building in the first instance, and from this point
extended the whole of hat portion of the house.
One of the rafters Mas entirely removed and of
the large upright posts in the frame, shivered to
splinters The chimney thrown down, windows
broken doors unhinged and in Short the whole inter-
nal arrangements of the building, from garnet to Gel
lar thrown into perfect confusion. bed standing
in the corner of of the rooms taken with the
bedstead entirely the apartment and piled up
on the opposite side. The sink and stove in the
kitchen were removed some distance from their po-
sition, and large quantity of glass and crockery
was demolished by the shock. Mr.. Buttrick and his
lady were severely stunned by the concussion and
man who was in the act of raising window was
knocked down by door which was torn from its
hinges, aad considerably bruised Very fortunately
at the time of the stroke the family were in the north
part of the house. Had they been in the other ex-
tremty where the full force of the shock felt it
is almost impossible that any one could have escaped
destruction. The building was very much shattered,
and the damage cannot be far from $1,000 Insurance,
we informed, had been taken at the bingham
Office We have heard of no other damage done by
the tempest, which continued but few minutes
though rain was falling during large part of the
forenoon.-.Ns'o Bedford Register.

MESMERISM.

The fol owing facts we had from the husband OF
the patient Mrs. Erkson had been confined since
May last at which time she had lost her infant child,
with that painful disease called the Milk Leg.
She had in all that time, been unable to sit in chair
more than ten minutes at time. About week ago
she was meslnelseI by Dr.. Ewing, and kept 10 this
state about two hours. During this sleep her husband
left her with the family TO visit his office on business.
On bis return his wife was going about the house,
and has since attended to her household affairs,
doing the work thereof without the aid ola servant,
with more strength, she thinks, than she had bef,r
being taken sick. If mesmerism will cure such dis
eases, there must be something in it.-Phnsburg

THE VETO.

1t is not province, were it disposition, to
discuss the political character of the Veto. Divers
sentiments entertained both to its motive and
its bearing What weight the reasons, which the
President has cogeny presented to justify his course,
should carry, is determined by each individual very
much according to his preconceved opinion of the
and his subject. All are agreed in this, howev-
er, that the abominable system of "log-rolng" le-
gslaton, under which New Jersey has suffered, will
find no favor at the hands of so resoue Executive
as John Tyler Whatever different opinions our
readers may form of the message other respects,
doubtless all will arrive at this, that it is the abes
state paper that has emanated from Mr.. Tyler since
his succession TO the Presidential Office We will not
