Justice 10 Lyndon.

Justice TO Lyndon.
Mr.. EDITOR Your correspondent of last
week, signed "Citizen," referred the public
to the list of town officers elected, as some
of the prominent temperance men in town.
Allow me 20 give you the names of other
equally as prominent temperance men, voted
for. (but not elected) by citizens called by
your correspondent chivalry,' "aIlies,"
" rum and democracy Several things, pure
ly local, for this town, called out full meet
ing. Among these was the removal of the
town clerks Office, from near Lyndon Centre
to Lyndon Corner. Also to act upon an ar
ticle in the warrant for said town meeting to
remit to John A. Darling fine of one hun
dred dollars, imposed upon him for violation
of the license law. An effort was made to
fasten this last upon the democracy, but up
on inquiry Of the selectmen, the fact was re-
vealed that of the four names OH the petition
to the selectmen, including the man fined
were two prominent republicans in town and
county. The democrats did not ask our vo-
tiers to vote for man who had been fined
the past winter fifty dollars for violation Of
law as a wholesale and retail dealer in liquors
but did ask them to vote for a man for con-
stable, that had done the business Of said
office the past year to the acceptance of 6
large majority of our citizens; one thai
could easily procure bonds to the entire sat
isfaction of our town authority, and not sub
iect us tc another town meeting to fill up thu
vacancy. The democracy, as usual, las
Tuesday to man, were in favor Of raising
money to procure volunteers to aid in put
ting down the rebellion, and in restoring ou
Union and preserving our Constitution
, Had democrat acted or talked as did on
of our ex-town-officers, they might justly b
called copperheads, secessionists, &C., (as tn

The Petrifaction Question.

The PetritactiOn Question.
Mr.. EDITOR: Your correspondent, H. A.
c., in The CALIFORNIAN of the 2G,h ult., ex-
presses his disbelief in the petrifaction of hui
man bodies, and thinks the description gave
land it was from the testimony Of eye wit
nesseD of the very singular condition of
Trescott's body when removed from the Gem
etery in this village some nine years since,
indicated simply an adipocerous state. l
gave the facts as they appeared at the time
facts, at least, in the minds of the witnesses
And upon further inquiry it is positively as
serted that the flesh upon the face, tested by
touch of the spade, was as solid as stone.
and had the appearance to the eye, of stone.
This certainly initiates seriously against youl
correspondents theory of simple adipocere-
an oily or waxy condition of the flesh. l
made no attempt to account scientifically for
the phenomenon, and will. only say at this
time, that can substantiate my previous and
present statements by affidavit that would be
admissible in any court of justice. C.
