Extract from letter to gentleman in THIS city, dated
.skEENE. IN H March L. 1SI7

"kEENE, On. H. March Is, 1877.
Your last letter gave much pleasure, partly because
il conceded with my views OF the necessity OF adj
herring to the ancient landmarks have for some time
democratic party exposedby counenancng aboitonsm
or any other of the dsoganzing movements of the day
And, with others, | have done what could to impress
this upon the public mind. In this matter much
strengthened by your letter. The contest in New Hamp-
shire has, the part of the democrats been conducted
We have put forward old principles and stuck to
them leaving opponents the business of ampering
with the abotonists and other fanatics The result
YOU have learned before this.
Never did party put forth stronger efforts than the
allies have to retain their power in this State The State
was flooded with documents from Washington and from
Concord Speakers visited almost every town, and there
perfect concert among all the branches of the allied
army This county was perambulated in common with
others, BY Hale Wilson and Barstow--a with the same
story viz the slave power and southern dctation The
democrats made but little noise in public, but they went
unitedly and resoutey TO work, with what the
result shows Every branch of the government is once
more in the hands of the democrats II is true that the
wings made small gain (less than 1O0) in Cheshire
but when it considered that this is their stronghold,
and that mighty effort made 10 fulfil their prediction
of gain of 1000 here, think that deserve the credit
of having done at least part of our duty The allies
fully expected carry the State and they could hardly
credit the returns they in. rejoice at the
suit because the democratic party have single handed
achieved victory such combination of old fash
toned federaiss and rotten hearted renegades
before was arrayed against il. Hale, Barstow, Fowler,
and others, have learned lesson which will do Others
good if not themselves. What renders the result
gratifying is that it has been achieved without the
fee of any of our principles. We now stand on old
ground, and stand strong We shall not be ashamed TO
have our friends from abroad call and this coming
season-a hint which hope you will take"

Qualifications at Camargo.

The startling rumors from the region of the Rio rande
render deeply interesting everything throwing light upon
the state of the defences along that line On account of
the large supplies of ammunition, provisions and clothing
said to be in store at Camago, the successful defence of
that point, should be attacked is of great Importance
1t will be perceived by the boned extract of private
letter from Col Morgan of the I'd regiment Of Ohio vol
unteers, TO friend in this city, that during his com
mand OF that post, he caused Camargo to be placed in
very strong state of defence and such was his opinion of
the fortcatons that he supposed them capable of being
held by 500 men against a force of 5000 Mexicans
These extracts cannot fail prove interesting at this
time to all our citizens, but peculiarly so to those having
relatives and friends at Camargo

The farmers CREED.-We believe in small
farms and thorough cultivation. The soil loves
to eat as its owner and should be nurtured.
We believe IN large crops which leave the land
better than they found it-making both the farm
and farmer richer at once.
We believe IN going to the bottom of things.
and therefore in deep pioughing. and ouough Of
it--aIl the bettor if with a sub-soil.
We believe that the best fertility Of the soil is
the spirit OF industry, enterprise and intelligence:
without this, lime and gypsum, bones and green
manure, mari or plaster will be Of little use.
we believe IN good fences, good, barns good
iarn-houses, good stock, and good houses.
We believe in a clean kitchen, neat wife in il.
a spinning piano, clean cupboard, dairy and
conscience.
We firmly dsbeeve in farmers that will NOT
