MEDICAL NOTICE.

Uhe Addison County Medical Society con-
vened al Vergennes, on Thursday the 12th
inst, agreeable to public notice. J. Rice
President, called the meeting to order, and
appointed E. D. Warner Secretary pro tenn.
The president then addressed the society in
few pertinent remarks upon the subject oil
medical discipline, and inculcated the neces-
sity of a rigid adherence 10 all the regulations
and bye-laws of the society, by all its mem.
bers.
The question for discussion was:
'What would be most effectual in promot-
ing the general growth of Medical science
disseminating that spirit of enquiry thro'o
all classes of community, which would ulti-
mately lead to a correct investigation Of those
laws which govern the animal economy, so es-
sential to be understood, in order 10 appre-
ciate merit, and discountenance empyricism.
The question was ably discussed by differ
ent members, but in consequence of other
business, the discussion was necessarily linn
tied, and it was deemed expedient to contin-
ue the debate at our next meeting, which will
be holden at Middebury, on Thursday the
Goth of Sept. at one o'clockP. M. Every
member is requested to attend, as business of
vital interest will be presented for considera-
ton and final action. Delegates are to be
appointed to the state society, which will con-
vene at Montpelier during the coming session
Of the legislature. Let there be no delin-
quents. ERASMUS d. WARNER.

MASSA CHUSETTS MASS
CONVENTION.

Two whole pages Of the Semi-weekly

Ing description of this unparalleled Wing
Gathering. 1t is said there were in Boston
on this occasion 100000 Wings. 1t is be-
lieved that no political gathering ever sur
passed in numbers and magnifcence of array
that which assembled on the common on the
10Th instant. The day was fine, and all the
arrangements admirably devised and feIicit-
ously executed. And says the Atlas The
whole occasion was one ofjoy, delight and
congratulation to the Wing Party"
Daniel Webster presided and first address,
ed the multitude nous assembly. He was
followed by Mr.. Berrien on Ohio. Cassius NJ.
Clay of Kentucky, Hon Mr. Miller of New
Jersey, Mr.. Bond of Ohio, and Mr.. Duncan
of Louisiana and others in short speeches.
At half past five the People retired to feed at
the thousands of tables spread for them by
the hospitable citizens Of Boston, In the
evening the myriads of Wings were addressed
Oh Tue di dIu
Marlboro Chapel by various Wing orators
present. Especially did Cassius NJ. Clay
entertain the audience at the fremont Tenn
pie for two hours in most powerful and
convincing address against Texas and in favor
of Henry Clay as the only means of proven
ting annexation.
This glorious gathering indicates that the
Old Bay State will go WING, WING,
WING, at the Presidential canvass And as
goes Massachusetts so will 60 the Union.
Wing principles will prevail through the land,
and Clay and Frelinghuysen will be our
next President and Vice President. For our
Cause is just and our Union perfect, and
Texas must be kept off, and Protection must
be kept on.

THE CROPS.

In Addison County All crops have come
in well. Seldom has grass, corn, rye, and
oats done better. The crops Of winterwheat
excel all that have been produced for fifteen
years past, and enough it is believed will be
raised to supply the bread stulfs for the
County. This will be saving to the people
ofnearly fifty thousand dollars, heretofore
paid out yearly for wheat flour. Owing TO
the excessive drought in this month of Sept
in some parts Of the County the potatoe crop
had suffered, but still ifnot injured BY the
disease of Try rot which now threatenes it
there will be tolerable yield.
The WEATuER.-The weather for nearly
the whole of the present month has been hot
and dry. Indeed SO excessive is the drought
that the meadows and pastures are withered
and parched, affording scarce feed for stock,
and unless we are Immediately favored with
rains, even moderate growth of fall feed
need not be expected. Wells and cisterns
are generally empty.

GENERAL JACKsoN's TESTIMONY.

GENERAL JACKSON'S TESTIMONY.
The old Hero is again out upon the coun-
try, and endeavoring as in his PALMER days
TO dictate TO the American people the course
of policy they should persue in relation to the
Annexation of Texas as will appear from the
following letter to person in Arkansas.
What pity that the amaneueusis of Gen.
Jackson should let him down into strain of
coarse and vulgar slang whanging againrt
men as far as the skies his superiors in every
quality which constitutes man or states
u.an, which would almost disgrace the most
dwelling press of his party.
Our chief object, however, in presenting
this letter is to show how clearly it testiies
that Mr.. Clay and his friends are opposed to
annexation of Texas, and how firmly both old
and young Hickory are bcntu upon this abom-
Unable measure.
The political portion of the letter is as fol-
lows:
at is true, we have been cursed with
Wmggery in Tennessee for several years !;
led into 1t by two of the most arch hypo-
critics the world was ever cursed with.
But since the Democratic Convention at
Baltimore nominated Polk, for president
and Dallas, for Vice President the De-
mocracy is gathering strength
from the Wings, who are abandoning
Clay daily, and next November will bury
Whlggery in Tennessee, and over the
whole United States; and Federal Wing
gerry will be buried, trust, forever.
The exciting question, between the
Democrats and Federal Wings and Abo-
Iltionist, is the annexation of Texas. The
democracy, viewing it as absolutely ne
cessaryto secure Texas to the U. States
to shut out all British and foreign infu-
ence from tampering with the Indians on
our western frontier, and with our slaves
IN the south west and west. Clay, Nth
ms Federal Wings and Abolitionist, are
lot shutting the door against the annexation

ana Clay, to get the Abolition votes, not

our National defence and safety. How

DILtISeuAM.-The Wings of the 4th dis
trict are determined that this representative oil
Polkism in Vermont shall be foored next
heat. in the 18th district. This IS the man
who is opposed to electing members oil Con-
gressb by single districts the only true deino-
cratic way. and voted 10 admit members
chosen by general ticket in violation oflaw.
This too is the man who has been stumping
itthrough his district, endeavoring TO swindle
the neople into the belief that Polk and the
Loco Foco party which he represents are in
favor of Protection, and as much so as Henry
Clay, although this same Polk in more than
a hundred fifty speeches every where
and upon every occasion has openly declared
himself opposed to Protective Tariff.
Avant upon Paul Dillingham; Jr. Esq. There
is no ono more full of Misrepresentation in the
State of Vt. than Paul Dillingham;. Let the
people of the fourth nail him to the counter
at the next trial. And now suppose this
same Paul Dillingham; who has SO zealously
argued the propriety OF choosing representa-
tives to Congress by states should have his
way in the state Of Vermont how completely
would this political quack be poisoned by his
own prescription. But he need not be alarmed.
The Wing parry in Vermont and elsewhere
have never been guilty of so clear departure
from true democratic principles as this would
imply.

4 MIGHTY MICHIGAN MASS
MEETING.

A multitudenous gathering took place on
the 29tb ult at Adrian. Says the Michigan
Expositor "Neither during the present cam
paign or that of 1910 hls there been so large
an assemblage in Michigan" The numbers
are variously estimated from 8 to ~ thousand
a very great multitude for so sparse popula-
ton. Messrs Storer and Bebb Of Ohio,
Taylor OF Marshall and our friend Edwin
Lawrence of Ann Arbour, addressed the
congregation from different stands. The
paper says of Mr.. Lawrence He was the
first choice of Lenawee, and his inlroducu, n
on the 9th of June and also in August wa
such as readily inspired the warmest interest
in his favor" lie is one Of the most eloquent
defenders of the Tariff in our infant State.
Previous to election Mr. L. will visit every
part of the District.
Michigan altho' overw helmed with Lo-
cofocOism for three years past is rapidly ar
rousing herself. Every effort is making to
carry back the State to the Wing Ranks.
There are strong hopes OF the redemption
of Michigan. We have never however
counted her among the Wing States. AItho'
we can well do without her, yet for her owl
sake. and the permanent safety of our country
we bid her God Speed in the glorious Wing
Cause
