Collax, on his nomination for Vice Presi-

"Warned by previous mistakes, from the
last and greatest of which the country is
now suffering, the Convention at Chicago
placed alongside Of the eminent man whose
wisdom, courage, and patient persistence
crushed out the life of the rebellion, one of
whose fidelity and patriotism there can be
no question: man universally esteemed
and beloved, and whom we all feel may be
trusted to the uttermost. In fact, the most
unscrupulous defamer of Republican men
and measures, when called upon TO traduce
Schuyler ColfaX, like Balaam upon Zoph-

blessings"
Last week Wednesday an importation
of eleven Normandy draught horses arriv =

these horses are, perpendicular shoulders
against which the collar may pull well, in
contrast with the oblique shoulder Of the
race horse or roadster, without which there
can be no speed; great weight for n dead
null. and the fact that they are easy keep
ers. They are from fifteen TO sixteen hands
high. with intelligent and amiable heads,
short necks but not very deep chests, per,
pendicular shoulders, round barrels, short
bodies, dropping sterns and short legs
They go TO Ohio, TO be crossed with the
Western draught horse, and will, no doubt,
prove a valuable addition to our stock OF
draught animals.

especially to my comrades on the battle
field, that was not present at that meeting
ut Montpelier, was not made delegate by
any knowledge or consent of my own, and
that do not train in that company. 1t cost
me too dearly, with thousands of others, to
conquer tie rebels at the South to be guilty
of any such act; and having been stationed
with other Vermont boys in the city of New

in that city from violence and bloodshed,

TREATMENT OF SUNsTRoKE.-As the
summer solstice is accompanied by fire.
quent cases of sunstroke, the following
may be of interest to our readers: 1t is
said that cold water should be Immediate
ly poured over the head of the person thus
afflicted, and that mustard or other draughts
should be applied to the back of the neck,
the wrists, knees and soles of the feet. Of
course these remedies should not preclude
the calling of a physician in any case where
the patient does not Immediately rally.
As a safeguard against sun-strokes, it is
well TO have something more than the usu-
al covering over the head on venturing in
to the rays of the hot sun-for instance, a
handkerchief, or still better, green leaves,
in the hat, those of common plantain being
excellent and frequently used.
