Hon. G. G. Woodnan.

This eloquent lecturer addressed Hall
ful! of people in this Village on TUESDAY
evening. Like all previous efforts of his
here. this one was characterized by breadth
of thought and a full comprehension Of the
questions of the hour. The war of the
rebellion is over, the clash of arms is no
longer heard, bat now comes the war of
ideas, the time for solid reasoning. for
studying the intricate and vitalqacs,ions Of
construction, and of suffrage, 80 that a
reflex influence shall 90 up to Washington
and be found knocking attic White House
and at the Halls Of Congress. The earl
cstucss aud the great length at which this
proposition was dwclt upon, leaves no
room to doubt, that the speaker feels as
every other sensible man in the country
feels, that progressive and reform
ing work is yet before the people. Mr..
Woodman would not eXclnde a colored
man from voting, he wouldnot make terms
with rebels. who Yet foster rancorous
spirit against tine government of TIC coun-
try, until they repent. He would make no
compromise with wrong. There can be
no honorable terms made with u great
'croag.
Act independently as you can of the
straight jacket of party, if truth and duty
demand it. Make this great country free
country. laying its foundation in this for
native period,on the bases Of right,of JUS
tce and of human Liberty.
In conclusion, the speaker, said he visit
ed this section, for another purpose than
for speech making,but some Bangor friends
wanted him to come to Ellsworth and talk
to the people. We thank our Bangor
friends for their timely interest, and for
sending the speaker along. We and the
people generally enjoyed the treat highly
Mr. Woodnan, no doubt was expected, in,
sulting as it must be to him. to turn tailor
and to spend much time in repairing a very
small breach in the seat of the party un-
mentionables in this county, but he was
too much of man to NEEDLE with such an
insignificant matter. The descent from
discu sing the great and grand questions of
the nations peril, and the little, dminutive
and insignificant question of who shall be
County Clerk. was too great for the speak
er, and therefore his illusions to our dyi-
sion was simply declaration of regret,

care of this matter

politicians. We could not go into town
before the convention but we heard of this
man or that mans having received letter
from Bangor urging that Mr.. Perry should
be nominated. They did not urge that the
Union party should be sustained. but that
a particular man should be nominated for
a particular local office. Was not this

been fair and sensible. But it could not
do this, an still it volunteers its advice.
We don't know a Union man in the
County that has any trouble with President
johnson. We have heard of no complaints
in that direction. If the Wig or its
friends have any. they had better prefer

The trouble about the clerk in this coun-
ty is chronic one. As long as Is6l there
was trouble about what was called the
Court House Cliquc;" and one of the
gentlemen who now holds national office
i'll this town, was particularly active in
getting up new party to act against this
influence. 1t pol.ed some 500 votes. In
1862. Mr.. Perry ran behind the Governor
vote some two or three hundred. So it is
not new thing. The last time he was
nominated he asked for the nomination
only for that time Vow he asks again,
and we have not half influence enough TO
get scores of these men who opposed him
for the two last times. to vote for him now. /
Now, Bro. Wig, why not for the noncc,

AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR AUGuSr.
The monthly report Of the Agricultural
Department Tor August says the returns If
the correspondents are very full, and show
slight falling off in the wheat crop in the
New England aud Middle States, some
thin. over Jo00OO bushels. loss of about
one and three quarter millions of bushels
III the States OF Maryland and Delaware,
and II deficiency of over 2O.ON.OOO bush
els III the Northern aud North Western
states.
The corn crop exhibits the greatest
promise. 1t is everywhere good. The
potatoc crop is almost as promising as that
OF corn. The other crops harvested will
be ample for domestic purposes. and that
nj oats Will be- very large. The prospect,
therefore, Is that the injury to the wheat
crop will he more than compensated by
the unusual excellence of the other CROP.
The tobacco crop is the only one which ex-
hhits n general falling oil in the amount
planted.
The heavy internal taxes on the manu-
featuring product, and the apprehension
of Il tax on the leaf. are assigned by some
of the correspondents as a reason for the
diminished production. The amount Of
wool and the increase of sheep are shown
by the table to bear like proportional adj
vance 10 that they have exhibited since
le6l. The report rays: THE rebellion
has given to this interest a prosperity
which protective laws under high tariff
failed 10 accomplish for it."-Trtbunr.

CHoLERA.-Dr. John Chapman ia a
ply stefan in the city of London who has
distinguished himself for recommending 1;
general dsusc of drugs in medical practice;
also, for his peculiar views upon the EN-
plovmen: of cold on different parts of the
human body as n remedy for disease
Thus his remedy for constipation is the ap-
plication which observation would seem to
confirm; us dyscntery. cholera morbus,
and other complaints Of the intestines are
often Occasioned and always aggravated by
undue exposure of that part of the body
DIR. Chapman has published numerous pa
pers in the London Medical Times and
Gazette upon the employment of his fav-
Orte remedy for different complaints. He
has lately written an article upon the chol-
era, in when he lays down the following
propositions:
1.-The primary cause of cholera is, gen
orally, the excessive heat of hot climates,
and temperate climates in summer when
cholera prevails.
The proxima:e cause of cholera is of
precisely the same nature as that of sum-
iner or choleratc darrhca. but it is far
more developed, and consequently its ac-
ton is proportionately more powerful and
intense.
Cholera is neither contagious nor infec-
tious. in any sense whatsoever, except
through the depressing influence of fear.
Cholera may be completely averted. and
when developed, cured by the persistent
application of the spinal ice-bag along the
whole spine so long as symptoms of the
disease continue"

The Convention.

The Convention which met at Lorl's
Hall on Tuesday was we'll attended, and
by body Of men who seemed to be in
earnest, and also knew what they want d
to do. and what was for the best interest
OF the Union party. These men so acted
and so expressed themselves as if they
thought they were zone and twenty" and
had some rights which politicians in Ban
gor, should respect. There was no excite
ment, no Boosting, no threatening, no att
tempt to eXc0mmunicate other members of
the party if they do not agree with this
movement; but quietly, yet with deter
mined spirit, these representative men de-
clared, that duty to the principles of the
party, and also its future harmony demand
ed of them that they put in nomination a
gentleman for Clerk of the Courts upon
whose garments there is 10 smell Of treas
on to the party "a man who will not di
vest himself of all respect aud rush into

vote for him. Mr.. Hale has been a busi-
ness man of the place for more than II
score of years, has always been consist
ent Union man, modest and unpretending
in manners, yet firm in principle, and a
good clerical man. He is worthy of the

We commend the resolutions adopted to
