The Municipal Election.

The republicans of this city hold an adj
journed meeting this evening, to nominate
candidates for mayor and aldermen. We
hope there will be a full attendance, and that
the business of the meeting will be conducted
so wisely and tremendously as to make GER
tain the election of the republican nominees
by overwhelming majorities. We hear the
nBmes of two or three men mentioned in con-
nection with the nomination for mayor, either
of whom would discharge the duties of the
office faithfully and successfully. With
well-Selected list of candidates for aldermen,
and a candidate for mayor who understands
the wants and business interests of the city,
and who has character, business faculty, and
disposition to devote himself to the duties of
the office, it would be ridiculous to suppose
the republican nominations can be defeated.
1t would not be pleasant thing to report,
in all the newspapers of the state, that the re-
publicans of Worcester, always so united, re-
liable, and strong, in all other elections, could
not be sufficiently united, earnest, and wise,
at this city election, to elect their candidates.
But there will be no such report The signs
now promise better things, and we feel sure
that the meeting tonight will nominate the
next mayor and aldermen. Let there be
full attendance.

THE WILL OF GEN. WASHINGTON IN THE
BRITISH MUsEUM.-It has been reliably as
certained that the original will of Gen. Wash
ington has been sold to the British museum.
This valuable relic of the great founder of the
nation was stolen some time since from Fair
fax Court House. The theft was discovered
at the time, but no steps were taken to ascer-
tain the name or whereabouts of the robber.
Being in the autograph of the Father of his
Country, every line bearing the impress of his
nobeness, and every page hallowed by his
own signature, this almost sacred document
has now passed from our possession, and in
all future time, if dictates of honor and pro-
priety do not prompt the British governmental
return it to the authorities at Washington, will
remain in the extensive gallery of curiosities
at London, an object Of interest to English
sight-seers, and Of reverence to American WIS.,

UPLAND, The GERMAN LYRIsT-Johann
Ludwig INLAND, one of the foremost ofthe ly-
ric poets of Germany, died recently at Tubin-
geu where he was born on the 10th of April,
1887. INLAND has held the place of classic
among the German poets formany years, and
his reputation is contemporary with that of
many writers long dead. His first verses
were printed as long ago as 1906, in Secken-
doris MuSen-A lmanach; he practiced law
sometime in Stuttgart, where also he held the
place of minister of justice. In 1915 he pub
llshed the first collection of his poems; some
OF which, on political topics, had already had
great influence on public sentiment in Ger
many. He gave up legal practice in 1880,
and became extraordinary professor of the
German language and literature in the Uni
yerslty of Tubingcn. He always took an ac~
tive part in German politics, and resigned his
protessorSlip i'll 1888, because it interfered
with his political duties as deputy He al
ways acted with the liberal party. Several of
Uhland's songs have been translated into Eng
lish.-New York EUening Post.

Killing of DIR. Hunt of West BOyIston
by Rebel Assassins.

ny ESebel ASSaSStnS.
From the Washington IN. c. New Era, Now
We were antounded, yesterday morning. at
hearing from one of our cavalry pickets of the
shooting of DR.. Hunt, by rebel skulkers in the
woods. The particulars are these: Dr. Hunt,
in company with friend, Mr. Tanner, clerk
for Langdon & Bidwell, concluded to take a
ride on the jamestown road, which had been
the doctors habit for exercise after his ardu-
GUS duties in the hospitals in the morning.
They rode out the road about mile, when
they came up to one of the cavalry vidette
who then joined them and rode out short
distance with them. They had not gone over
a halt-mile beyond Mr.. Smallwood's house
when Mr.. Tanner heard a noise as the cock
ing of guns-when he Immediately wheeled
his horse without signaling the other two, and
in the act of turning, his horse received full
charge of buck shot in his head and neck. he
himself barely escaping, as the ball grazed
his breast, tearing away his coat and not touch
ing his body. After wheeling his horse re-
ceiyed a full charge of buck shot in his hind
quarters. Fortunate for Mr.. Tanner, he was
not hurt. His horse, although badly wound
ed, carried him into town, when he was ena-
bled to give the alarm. DIR. Hunt and the
cavalry man were less fortunate, they not
hearing the noise, and becoming directly OPP

They were both fired into, DIR. Hunt receiving

receiving the most of the charge in his head
and neck The doctor still chung to his horse
without speaking word, unable to manage
NM The cavalry man knew his only chance
was to make charge back from the way he
came. This he concluded to do, when the
doctors horse followed him. the doctor having
In the meanwhile fallen from his horse. He
was successful, and reached the inside pickets
in safety.
We have chronicled the murderous shooting
Of an unarmed man, a surgeon in the army of
the United States, in company with two others
who came near sharing the same fate; but we
have not mentioned that this man was not only
murdered by these skulking thieves, who rise
up from behind an ambush, shoot down and
murder an unarmed man, but rob his body of
his clothing his boots from his feet, his gold
watch and money from his pockets, and in
their hellish purposes attempt to tear the last
vestige of clothing from his person, before the
last breath Of life had passed from his body,
or his heart ceased to beat These men were
recognized as soldiers and cavalry men.
DIR. Hunt was assistant surgeon of the Mas
sachusetts 9th, and lately assigned to this
post as post surgeon. lie was a man uniyer-
