The VEAzIE CHEcKs.-At time when
the business community seemed in danger of
being flooded with shinplasters of rresponsi-
bic persons in order to supply the deficiency in
small coin, Gen. Samuel Veazie OF Bangor.
Banker Of large wealth was requested by
many Interested in business TO prevent this
card currency of doubtful value from spread
ing over the state, by the issue of fractional
checks OF good appearance and which would
command the confidence of all. He did so,
and his fractionals have performed good SER
vice and saved to the business community
thousands of dollars, besides afiording great
convenience. OF late, persistent efforts seem
to be made to limit the circulation of the
Neazie fractionais by statements that they
have been counterieited. Every check he's
been redeemed when presented for retention
and all have been found genuine by the parties
who maze them. They are safe as any paper
currency can be. We take them as readily as
any money offered. General Veazie has per-
formed good service to community and we
thank him. No person should dispose of thess
Veazie checks at discount beyond the Ex-
press fees for transmissionI-.Ken. Journal.

lHE RIGHT OF THE NATION TO DRAFT
Inc plausible argument that drafting should
oe enected through the State authorities is con-
clusively answered by single consideration.
The nation has the inherent right to protect
and defend itself as a nation against domestic
or foreign enemies. For this purpose the Fed
eral Government must cover the whole coun-
try, and be able to summon the men of the
country to its aid, as well as to tax the prop
erty OF the country to furnish its treasury.
Troops wanted for the use of the republic
must be at the disposal Of the constitutionally
elected rulers of the republic for the time be-
ing. Governors may be factous, as well as
individuals, and refuse cooperation at critical
moments, and when most needed.
There has been actual experience of this al
ready. 1t is not to be forgotten that at the
outset of the war certain border States
through their half-loyal magistrates, refused
to furnish their quotas to the army raised to
put down the rebellion. Moreover, there are
governors to-day, who, il they had the power,
would virtually re-enact secession, and make
their support of the Federal Government de-
pend upon the acceptance of their conditions
or their policy: and this too when a majority
OF their constituents are thoroughly loyal.
The insidious reasoning that would transfer
the Executive of the Nation in any degree
from Washington to Albany, is to be watched.
as lnmical TO the true interests of the country
and the true Interpretation of its institutions
The President is directly responsible to the
people, and amenable to the Judiciary of the
land. He is not responsible to Horatio Sey-
mour, and does not hold office by his suffer-
ance. Consequently the assumption of this
gentleman and his party, to direct the pro-
ceedings OF the President, or to exercise over
them practically veto power, is simply pre-
posterous. The Nation has not chosen him
or his followers, engineers or brakemen Of the
Republic.

CURE FOR DYsENTERY. DR.. Page of
Washington communicates the following to
the Republican of that city:
The following simple remedy, long known
in family practice, was recently tried in the
camp of the New York Twenty-Second Regi-
ment, where there were from eighty 10 one
hundred cases daily of dysentery, and with
rapid cures in every case.
Recipe.-In tea-cup half full of vinegar
dissolve as much salt as it will take up. eav-
ing little excess of salt at the bottom of the
cup. Pour boiling water upon the solution
TIL the cup is two-thirds or three-quarters
full. A scum will rise 70 the surface, which
must be removed, and the solution allowed to
cool.
.Dose.-Tablespoonful three times day till
relieved.
The rationale of the operation Of this sim
pie medicine will readily occur to the pathol-
ogist, and, in many hundred trials, have new
er known it to fail in dysentery and protract-
ed diarrhea.
