Hon. Alvah Bean called upon for an Explain
ation.
The last Argus and Patriot publishes the fol-
lowing letter ,oo,
WEST FAIRLEE, July 20, 1868.
Mr.. Editor The question of the political or
.thodoxy of Alvah Bean, of this town, one OF the
Democratic nominee s for Senator, having been
raised in our Convention on Tuesday last, 1t ls
nroper that the Democracy of Orange County
should be informed with reference thereto. The
fact that he is on the Republican ticket does look
bad. but he is there without having committed
himself to them, and is not to blame because they
have thought it best for them to use bis name.
Since he was nominated by.them he has declared
that he was an unyielding Democrat, and had
rather be defeated as the nominee of the Democ-
racy than to be elected as the candidate OF the Re
nublicans. He has no sympathies with the poIiti-
cal heresies of black repubhcanism, and will vote
the Democratic State, Congressional and County
tickets 1t was his intention to attend the Dem
ocratic County Convention and participate in its
nroceedngs, but the inexcusable delay in calling
that Convention, and the indecently short notice
given when it was called, made it impossible for
him so to do because OF unavoidable business en-
gagements made by him before the call appeared.
The Democracy of West Fairlee will vouch for
him as true man, and if elected, as beyond a
doubt be will be, he will be found opposed to the
sectional legislation which has disgraced Vermont
in the past. Yours Truly,
DEMOCRAT.
Mr.. BEAN is either exceedingly unfortunate in
having " Democrat" for his friend and spokesman,
or be is totally unfit to be voted for on the Union
ticket for Senator in Orange County. We sup
pose the people of Orange County understand
their own politics, but it is entirely Incompetent
sibls to us how man can be for the Government
and at the Same time be popular with those who
compose the so.callsd Democratic party in this
State. We trust Mr.. BEAN will deny the state.
ments of +" Democrat" or at once have the man.
Illness to decline the nomination Of the Union Con-
yention. Skifu circus performers have been
known to ride two horses when they were going
in the same direction, but Mr.. BEAN ought to un
d.rstand that it isn't easy to perform the feat o.
riding two horses going in opposite directions
Shall We hear from Mr.. BEAN, in denial Of the
statements Of" Dsmocnts"

Perils of Life in Minneso a.

We all remember reading in our
school-books thrilling stories of the per-
ilous life the early settlers lived in
presence of the Indians. Strange as it
may seem some Of these same old scenes
are being re enacted in our own day, in
the northwest. We have published ac-
counts of Indian atrocities in Minnesota,
rivalling the horrors of the historical
period of our country. The correspon-
dence of the Milwaukee News, from
New Lisbon, relates the following Incl
dent, which happened on the last Sat
urday in July:
On Saturday last, five Indians attack
ed the house of Mr.. Austin, about five
miles from here, on the Germantown
road. As they came into the yard Mrs.
A. locked the door and refused them
admittance, whereupon they procured
an axe and smashed in the windows,
and two of them entered the house. =
No one being present but Mrs. A. and
her two children, she allowed them to
take some pies, just from the oven,
which they passed out to their COM
rades. They then made insulting pro-
posals to her, and at last said they
were determined at least to have the
''white papooses," because the whites
had several Indians in Jail, and they
wanted some schmokee men. Mr.. Aus
tins dog constantly maintained his po-
ritien between Mrs. 4. and the Indi-
ans, and as they would try to get near
the door where the children were, in the
pantry, the dog would attack them. At
last one of the Indians rushed at Mrs.
a. with a knite, and the dog seized his
arm, and bringing him down to the floor
the descending blade cut Mrs. Austin's
shoe and rent her clothes considerably.
As the Indian rose she fired at him, and
thinks she shot him through the breast,
as he partly sprang and partly fell out
of the window, with loud yell. The
other Indian continued the combat with
the dog, but finding that he made but
little progress with the kuife, retreated
toward the window, and seized the axe
and commenced dealing deadly blows at
the dog with that. Meantime Mrs. A =.
had reloaded, and after the Indian had
succeeded in nearly killing the dog,
gave the red skin the contents of the
gun in his arm. The Indians then left
carrying away the dead Indian, the
wounded one following. Mrs. A. then
took the children and proceeded to the
nearest neighbor, some fourth a mile,
and Saturday night the family arrived
IN town.

The Gifts of the Gods
BT JOHN G. SAKE

The saying is wisE, though it sounds like a jest,
That The Gods don't allow Us to be in their debt,
For though We may think we specially blest,
We are certain to pay for the favors We get
Are riches the boon Nay, be no. elate
The final account isn't settled as yet
Old Care has a mortgage on every estate,
And that's what you pay for the wealth that you
get,
Is honor the prize? 1t were easy to name
What sorrows aud perils her pathway beset
Grim Hate and Detraction accompanying Fame,
And that's what yoa pay for the honor you get
Is learning treasure: How charming the pair,
When talent and culture are lovingly met;
But labor unceasing is grievous to bear,
And that's what you pay for the learning you get.
Is genius worth having? There isn't doubt;
And yet what price on the blessing is set
To suffer more with il than ounces without,
FOr hats what you pay for the genius you get
Is Beauty a blessing? To have ii for nought
The gods never grant to their veriest pet
o4c 2-uff sou tuc Jc"eI ID
And that's what you pay for the beauty you get
But Pleasures? Alas how prolific of pain
Gay Pleasure is followed by gloomy Regret;
And often Repentance is one of her train,
Andthat's what you pay for the pleasures you get.
But surely in friendship all may secure
An excellent gift never doubt it-and yet
With much to enjoy there is much to endure,
And that's what we pay for the friendship we get
But then there is Love? Nay speak not too soon ::
The fondest of hearts may have reason to fret
For Fear and Bereavement attend on the boom
Aud that's what we pay for the Love that we get !,
And thus it appears-though it sounds like jest
The gods don't allow Us to be in their debt;
And though we may think we specially blest.
We are sure to pay for whatever We get
