gentlemen who reside in New Hampshire and
Vermont left Concord in a special train this

were ready at this point and we commenced O
journey of twenty-five miles, to the town of
Claremont, passing through the agricultural
towns of Newbury, Sunnapee, and Newport.
We left Bradford at half past eight and arrived
at Claremont at quarter past twelve o'clock.

Ward Caucuses.

The Republican Ward Caucuses, for the
election of delegates to the State Convention
at Bangor will be held this evening at 1-2
o'clock. There is no excitement in tbs city up
on the matter, but it is the duty of every true
Republican to be present and to assist in Sc
lecting such delegates as will express the VIII
of the majority, whatever it may be- When
that will is fairly and honestly expressed the
minority should bow to it. We hope, then,
that there will be general turnout tonight
at the meetings Those who do not attend
can have no reason to complain if delegates
are selected that do not meet their views
We will thank the clerks OF the several eau
cuses to send to the Press Office the names of
the delegates selected.

Thousands OF persons, Without any specific all

wantof organic energy, for which the subjects Of it
are no more responsible than the near sighted are
for their detective vision Such persons, although
they may be free from pain are as truly invalids,
and much in need Of medical aid, as II they were
tormented with the pangs of acute disease. They
require TONIC and Alternative, that will rouse and
regulate their torpid Organizations In cases Of this
kind, Hosfetter's Stomach Bifsers produce an
immediate and most favorable effect. The debit

he were but half alive; who shuns company, and
has no relish either tor BUSINESS or pleasure is meta

CHARLES P. KnfBALL, Esq, in letter in
the Standard says: "Permit me to say that my
name will not be presented as candidate for
Governor to the Bangor Convention with my
consent, OF if my own feelings and wishes are
consulted" We always knew Mr.. Kimball TO
be shrewd man and very successful one,
and he has no wish to have the honor of a
nomination to a high position thrust upon him
when there isn't the least prospect of his
reaching it. The time hasn't come yet for
political revolution in Maine. If we recolect,
Democracy lost its prestige and power in the
great rebellion, and it stands about as good q
chance to rise and assume the reins of our
government as the old Federal party. Our
friend Kimball knows this as well as we do.

VERY SEvERE.-The New York World,
speaking of the Peace Jubilee, says: "Al-
though it is, on general principles, unfair to
condemn what we have not heard, and al
though it is not probable that New Workers
will hear even the six thousand anvils, more
or less, and the park of artillery with which
aesthetic Boston purposes to accompany its vo-
cal Admission of Hail Columbia it is yet quite
safe to say that the Boston Peace Jubilee is a
delusion and snare. 1t has not the appear
ance of being got up for any other human
purpose than giving an excellent and cheap
advertisement to certain thrifty burghers of
that town, and of filling the pockets of its pro-
jectors and of the publicans of Boston directly,
and the pockets of the whole tradespeople of
