Recent Development in Franoe-Dr. Tessier'.
Studies and Change Of Wees.
LONDON, Sept. IL, 1850.
OF course the object of my visit TO this
country has occupied much of my attention
even during my first week ia The worlds
capital. have made the ACQUAINTANCE OF
several OF the most eminent Homeopathists in
London. Drs. Dudgeon, Laurie, GUM, Curie,
and Others, have visited their hospitals and
dispensaries. They are very attractive men
Learned, aad very cordial | find them
instructive and agreeable in high degree.
They are much interested, and Of course
have become SO, in recent development OF
homeopathy in France. Ii had recently
appeared that DR.. Tessier physician of the
Hotel Dieu, great hospital in Paris, the
very name of which is Unidentified with those
Of the greatest physicians of the world, and
to be physician IN which is eyi dence at once
Of high ability-I say it has appeared ,Ia,
DR.. Tessier has been for several years pas,
silently testing the claims of homeopathy
in his hospital practices, and has now come
out decidedly in its favor, having renounced
all other practice in his wards for the space
Of TWO years. He has published his expert.
ence Of the homeopathic treatment Of pneu-
monia and cholera. From the exceIlen,
preface of his work which lies before inc.
cannot forbear translating few para asraphs
"Of the many who have blamed the intro.
duclion of homeopathy into the hospitals
know that some have done so through \
laudible feeling of humanity for the patients
and desire TO sustain the dignity of The
profession. They will learn by these reports
that humanity has only gained by its intro.
duction, aud that consequently the dignity Of
the profession could have nothing to lose. .
Speaking Of the experiments, he says
"Pneumonia is disease frequent, acute
ser ious, whose symptoms are marked and no,
easily mistaken. I chose it, therefore, as
the subject Of my first experiment with the

but be assured of one thing replied Mrs.

'What is that? asked Mr.. C. with
evident fear.
Nothing, only neighbor n will not
long be at the Inconvenience Of troubling
people for old papers,
In about three weeks after this copyersa

that he had paper in the Office. He was
highly pleased at the announcement. but he
could not think who was 50 very kind as to
send him the paper. After many coniec,-
ures, however, he came TO the conclusion
that it was some friend whom he had assist.
ed in former years.
One year had passed the papers had con-
tinucd to come, and N was still ignorant
from whence they came; but being one day
at hauling, he informed his neighbors OF
his good fortune and expressed some fear
that he should have 10 do without paper
soon.

Uncle Bills First Love.

My Uncle Bill and my Aunt Airy reside
on Long Island, not far from the far-famed re-
sort, Rockaway. One evening last week, as
Aunt Airy was boiling some chesnuts for us
Workers TO eat, and as Uncle Bill sat smok-
ing good Havana We had brought down with
us, we persuaded him to tell us story. Un.
Gle Bill tells good one when he chooses, and
being man that loves to please, he dipped
deeply, very quickly, into the one purposed
telling, somewhat thus:
When | was slip of a chap, had occa-
sion 10 travel some distance in stage coach,
as steamboats, and rail-cars were not too plenty
in those days. Now, had heern tell often of

think so. had the luck of sitting alongside

thought my time was come surely As felt
my strength goin' qnickly,l kinder gently
lifted my arm, and drew it round the fair ones

then pressed her to me, and her head fell on
my shoulder, and began 10 tremble all over

then drove out of the wood, and the moon
shone on her face--and looked on it--and-

So far as We can Judge at the moment when

Vermont have added another to the catalogue
Of VICTORIES for which trcir State is honoraby

Union, and faithful to her cherished principles,
we have no manner of doubt. To the election
returns in another column, we refer our readers.

0FTho Wing State Convention Of Massa-
chusetts will assemble at Springfield on the
10th of September. From the Indications in
the somewhat hunbuggcl Plymouth-Rock
State, we infer that RoBERT G. WINTnRor
Zone of the best Wings and best Men in the
Union) will be nominated for Governor and
wW be cicctcd, too. The Frcc-soil aud Anti
Frec-sol Coalition, we incline to believe, has
chad its day" IN the old Bay State. 1t is a
iugglc that will never be seriously attempted
again in Tcmont because it was here most
emphatically beaten. In Massachusetts, it
happened to be successful last year, and the
"lloly Alliance are naturally disposed to try
it again. SO the "Dcmocratc State Conycn-
ton" few days ago, nominated the Coalition
Candidates for State Offices, and passed re-
markablv stringent OH Hunter Resolutions =
thus satisfying their love of the spoils, on one
hand, and making a great show Of patriotism
on the other, in manifest contempt of the scrip
lures and Common Sense!
When the Wines of Massachusetts, Uho
men who do not require their anti-slavcry prn-
ciples to be endorsed by pro-slavcry backors)
hold their Convention on the 10th of Scptcm-
Der, they will have heard gun or two from the
Green Hills of EvER-FMrnFUL VERMONT =
We hope the sound of our Wing Thunder will
/ be music in their ears. Vermont is as true to
the Constitution and the Union as the Needle
is to the Pole and she has repeatedly given
| the highest proof of this fidelity by defeating
"Abolitionism," "Frer- sollsnI," "Frcc Dcmoc
racy," and every other form of unwholcsomc
agitation, that has arisen to distract or embar-
rass her and the Country. In the eloquent and
impressive language of Mr. WEBSTER. at the
head of our columns, the Wings Of Vermont
have ALWAYS maintained their political in
tegrity and their love for the Constitution and
the Union, by defeating Locotocoism "lN ALI
"PLACEs, At ALI TIMES, UNDER ALL CGRCUM-
DISTANCES, EVEN AGAINST ALL INDUCEMENTS,
!" A G INST A LII COMBINATIONS,
AGAINST ALL COMPROMISE" And
she will CONTINUE TO do SO, alike regardless
of the fanatics within her own borders who de-
ny fraternity to our brethren of the Southern
States, and the worse fanatics at the South, who
pertinaclously ascribc to the whole North the
detcsta5e sentiments of GurjSon s. Co., and
seek refuge in Rebellion and Secession from
wholly imaginary nyasions of their rights =
Vermont walks safely in the happy midway
between the two! TO nothing else can be as
cribcd the uniform Victories that have crowned
the political efforts of her WHIGs.
We hope, therefore, that our Wing brethren
in Massachusetts, when they assemble in Con
vcntion, will be encouraged by the News from
Invincible Vermont. That it will be Goor
NEWS, we venture confidently to predict. That
it may lead them to fight manfully in the same
Cause, and to triumph in their approaching
State Election, we confidently hope. While
VERMONT and MASSACHUSETTS are side by
side, we shall never despair of the ultimat,
prevalence of political Truth, nor of the safety
of this glorious Union.

laugnlnr IL out! MIR. SHERWOOD is elected
by at least SIX HUNDRED over that active
and Woodworking Free Democrat! If any
body doubts it, hat is at his disposal at this
Office,
Our County.
We have received the returns from every
town in the County except two, Bolton and
Jericho, and take particular pleasure in saying
that the entire WING TICKET, with the posi-
ole exception Of one of the candidates for AS
sistant Judges) is elected by an average plu-
rality of over FIVE HUNDRED! Mr. RAN
SOM JoNEs, of Richmond, consented to the hui
initiation of running on two tickets that arc as
much opposed to each other in ayowed princi-
pie and sentiment as it is possible to conceive,
and he thus reduces the plurality of one of the
Nhg candidates for side Judges, but does not,
in our opinion, defeat him. Hc believe they
are both elected.
Mr.. PnELps's plurality for States Attorney
will scarcely be less than FIVE HUNDRED. Messrs.
Furthermore and BARsTow (Scnators) are
elected by nearly or quite SIX HUNDRED, and
Mr.. SHERwooD's plurality for Sheriff. will not
run a vote short of SIX HUNDRED. The efforts
TO defeat these gentlemen have cmphatically
fallen through.
Since writing the foregoing VIC have re-
ceived the vote of Bolton, and the following is
the footing for all the County except Jericho,
which will reduce the Wing plurality not more
than 10 or 90.

OF these votes, Nix. STACY should have re-
ceived those cast for Mr.. WALES, and five of
the six scattering. In which case he would
have been elected by lsi majority. We have
reason TO believe that, had the first balloting
resulted in no choice, Nh. STACY would have
been elected on the second by 200. The vote
for Mr.. WALES would have swelled Mr. STA.
CY's vote to i36,-which was about the true
Wing vote, Governor Williams having 433.-
If the Wings in Burlington don't stop this
obtrusion of their "domostc feuds," upon the
public-feuds which jcapardize their success,
and place them in false position before the
Wings OF the State, we shall speak out in
