mate effect Of their narrow and proscriptive
policy. Half of those who voted for Sprague
will be found voting the republican ticket next
November. Fortunately their is no United
States Senator to elect, Mr.. Simmons having
three and Mr.. Anthony five years to serve
The Newport News, a republican paper which
supported the Sprague ticket at the late Rhode
Island election says:-
1--WE think that the election of conservative
republican ticket in this state, instead of prov
ing any disadvantage to the republican party,
nationally considered, will be of inestimable
value, and that its seeds of concord will germi-
nate at the Chicago convention into plants of
harmony which will send their brightest en-
blem to blossom at the White House."

A STRIKING CoNTRAsT.-By the annual re-
port Of the Massachusetts General Hospital in
this city, and the Mclean Asylum in Somer-
vile, we notice that the whole number of pa
tents admitted TO both during the past year was
1871, and that the expenses were sos, 7S9.
The number admitted during the same period
at the Boston Indian Medical Institute in Brom-
field street, was 1929, at an expense of only
about $42, 1000 These figures show that the
number of patients admitted at the Indian
Medical Institute was nearly one-ffth larger
than the number admitted at the Hospital and
the Mclean Asylum counted together; and yet
they were treated at less than one-half the ex-
pense. These facts, and the contrast here pre-
scented, are the strongest arguments that can be
produced in favor of the "Institute," and can
not fail to attract the attention of all interested
in such matters. Had we space to enter into
the different modes OF treatment, and the rela-
tive number cured, the contrast would be still
more striking. 1t is well known that many
diseases, especially those of Cancer, have been
treated successfully at this Institution, after they
had without benefit, visited the hospitals in New
York as well as in New England. We have re-
Gently examined their records, and conversed
with many of their patients, and know whereof
we affirm. The same privilege is extended TO
all who wish to investigate the merits of this
important subject. Those of our readers who
cannot visit the Institute personally, can obtain
the facts, and all necessary information free by

CoNNEcTlcUT.-The complete returns show
the election of Buckingham for Governor by
57l majority. The vote for Governor is about
five thousand greater than that of last year,
which was the largest that had then ever been

FAST DAY.-"Good Friday" and the "Governor's
Sunday" occurring spontaneously in this State, this
year, so much Of the proclamation of His Excelency
as recommended people to abstain from "their usual
avocations' was scrupuously regarded both by native
and foreign born, and football, baseball boatrowing
and the various modes of propclng with the aid of
horse-fesh substituted in place thereof. Community
was then divided into two classes-those who went to
church and those who did not CO. with the odds large
ly in favor of the latter. The BEAUTIFUL spring like
weather of the day materially contributed to make
the numerical difference between these Glasses more
noticeable; at the same time it drew many of the ma
jority away from the village into the warm, sunny
hooks where the first blossoms of the epgee and he
patca were disclosing their beauties, and usherng in
the season of flowers and ruitage.

BELLOWS FALLs.-II. f. SToUonToN, CnARLrs
Towns and WARREN WALKER have purchased the
Island House at Bellows Falls, for $4,000, and this
week II has been opened for the accommodation OF the
public, under the superintendent of Mr. f. G. BALL
The public and the people of Bellows Falls have both
an interest in this matter On our return from the
District Convention last week, stopped over night
at Robertson's Hotel in Charleston where we found
good accommodations and excellent fare. The query
suggested itself to mind "why Bellows Falls was
not doing the business to which by her position she Is
egitimately enttedY" The only response suggested
was lack Of enterprise. We trust that this purchase
of the Island House is the first chapter in an entirely
new book of the history of that place.
