SPECIAL NOTICES.
Suggestions for summer.

1t is of great importance that the system should be
in vigorous condition when the hot weather COM
mences. The effects of high temperature upon an
enfeebled frame always more less disastrous.
The loss of substance and the declenson of
power occasioned by excessive heat, can only be
pensated by the active, healthful and regular
else of all the bodily functions by which the waste of
nature is repenished and the vital energies renewed
The great utility of Hostetters Stomach Bters as
means of tonng, invigorating and regulating the Or
gans of the body is universally acknowledged. As
tonic it stimulates the laging appetite and accelerat
digestion: corrective it neutrazes acdity of
the stomach and relieves hatuency; alternative
and mild aperent it regulates the liver and the bow
els; as an anodyne it promotes tranquil sleeps as n
stimulant it mparts rmness and elasticity to the
Taxed and trembling nerves. and a blood deburent
puriies the vital stream. The value of such q spec
tic to the weak debitated is beyond all estimate.
To mvalids wilted down by the sultry heat of mid
summer, ii is as refreshing and vtazing as tho cool
night dew to the sun-scorched flowers Composed of
vegetabl elements only, with basis of pure dffusive
stimulant it is safe and paatable as well as medci-

The Sober Second Thought.

We take great pleasure in congratulating
the citizens of Portland upon the result of the
vote yesterday. We believe it to be proper
subject of very hearty rejoicing and that a
contrary result would have been a serious
public calamity. The rapid advance of the
road through the Notch is now ensured and
Portland will have a new and short avenue to
the West in its own control-managed by
Portland men for Portland's interests. 1t is
triumph of the progressive, vigorous and en-
terprising spirit over the extreme conserva-
tive and retrogressive view of affairs and COM
mits the city to the encouragement of all
great enterprises for the public good. Now
that our means of access to the interior are
assured, we should turn our attention to the
advancement of manufacturing enterprises
We need both commerce and manufactures to
ensure us the future for our city which we
now confidently anticipate.
We cannot leave this subject without adj
verting to the causes for the opposition which
was so vigorously made to the city loan. We
wish to express our conviction of the honesty
and sincerity Of many of the opponents who
felt in all good conscience that they were
right in principle, and that it was not for the
city's good to grant its credit to the Ogdens-
burg road. These gentlemen are entitled to
respect, although we believe they were mis-
taken. Another and numerous class of the
opponents were men who from personal feel
ings and prejudices or from natural tenden-
cy oppose new things, under miserable pre-
tense of principle" have resolutely opposed
the effort of Portland to better herself and
have spared no means, however violent, ma
licious and unreasonable to effect their pur-
pose. The uselessness of personal vitupera-
ton and misrepresentation as a means ofcon-
vincing was conspcuously proved by the
overwhelming majority in favor the road 1t
is well enough to characterize these men here
and now, for we shall meet them again.
They, with their natural instrument and rep
resentative, the Argus, may always be safely
counted as squarely opposed to every attempt
at advancement, and always ready to throw
unlimited mud at the men who do believe
that the Goods help those who help them

played much taste in trimming up his Engine

The Baltimore Convention.

THE EVENING BEFORE THE CONVENTION.
Matters dragged so this evening, and the
crowd showed such lack of enthusiasm, that
a band was ordered out and played "My Mary
land" "Dixie," and other rebel tunes before
the leading hotels. AT Barnum's, Gen. John
B. Gordon, late of the Confederate Army, was
the principal speaker, and he had much to say
about Horace Greeley becoming the bondsman
for jeff Davis, and he thought the Southern
people could not do less than reciprocate by
voting, and thus going on the bond of the man
who had become the bondsman for the Presi-
dent of the Southern Copfederacy

ATTEMPTED MURDER AT PELHAM. N H
On Monday evening of last week, says the
Nashua Telegraph, as Mr.. and Mrs. Varnum
Willougbby were passing the hut of Joseph
Lyon, Frenchman of low and dangerous char
acter in North Pelham, N. H., they were induced
by Lyon and his wife to enter their house. Soon
after entering the hut, Lyon insisted on their
singing, which they did. In few minutes
more, Lyon jumped up and exclaimed, 'sNow,
d--you, we've got you where we want YOU"
He Immediately drew pistol and fired two
shots, aimed directly at Willoughby's head
One shot only took effect, entering under the
left eye and penetrating under the back of the
ear. The wound is serious one, but is not re-
garded as fatal. On being shot, Willoughby
by the throat, and soon compelled him to give
up the pistol. He then made his escape with
his wife. WIlloughby was greatly exhausted
and soon became insensible,

The Chicago TINES, Democratic, says that
private letters from Richmond, Va, state up
on unquestionable authority that in case
Greeley shall be nominated at Baltimore
Judge Robertson, Judge Daniel, James Bar
bour, james Lyons, John FL. Glmer, Henry
A. Wise, and number of other leading Con-
servatives, will stake the stump for Grant.
With respect to Messrs. Wise and Gilmer. the
fact has already been published. 1t is said by
those who should know, that in the event an
ticipated, Virginia would choose Grant elect
ors by large majority, and be consigned to
the Radical party for the next twenty years.
The outlook in Virginia is certainly not one
calculated to encourage vigorous prosecu-
ton of the Greeley business at Baltimore.

by the conductor on the ground that, although
it was good from New Haven to New York, it
did not pass the holder in the opposite direc-

were compelled to receive the ticket as it rep
resented money paid for a passage between

A GOOD DEED.-The managers of the New
York Times have undertaken work of benefi-
cence and good will wholly aside from the lines
of ordinary newspaper enterprise. Their plan
is to collect subscriptions-and they have al
ready succeeded in collecting about two thous-
and dollars-for the purpose of giving the very
poor and friendless children, who throng the
Five Points and other abodes of the IMPROVE
dent classes, pleasure excursions in the conn
try. They promise to supervise the arrange
ments, and have arranged for the first
picnic next Thursday at Rockaway beach. to
which four hundred 'little wanderers" will be
carried Thus a company of little people, who
probably may never have experienced a day of
real childish pleasure will enjoy that novel and
healthfnl sensation. On the same day and I'M
der the same auspices, six hundred children in
the care of the Children's Aid Society have an
excursion to Oriental grove on Long Island,
which will be an unknown land to most of
them.

ANTI-GREELEY CIRCULAR.-A Herdlds Bal
timore correspondent says that several docu-

posed to Greeley The most widely circulated
and the one attracting the most attention, hav-
ing several signatures of Importance, being the
following:
"We the undersigned having an abiding faith
in the principles of Democracy as expounded
by Jefferson and Madison and maintained and
successfullylcarried out by Monroe jackson and
other eminent statesmen and patriots, from the
first organization of the party in 1898 to the
year 1860, do most solemnly protest against the
reasonable designs of gang of Office seekers
claiming to be Democrats, transferring us like
so many voting cattle over to the support of
few disappointed, sore headed radicals, and we
do pledge ourselves that in no event will we
vote for the worst enemy of our time honored
principles, the notorious Horace Greeley, and
we further pledge ourselves to vote for
straight Democratic ticket if we are permitted
to have that glorious opportunity"

THE TURF.-The Lewiston Journal states
that efforts are being made to induce the man
ayers of the famous mares Goldsmith Maid and
Lucy to bring these justly renowned queens of
the turf to Lewiston, and give an exhibition of
their speed at the Lewiston trotting park
However entertaining such an exhibition would
be to the Spindle city," we think that if such
a race is to be witnessed in the State of Maine,
the precedence should certainly be given to
Portland, provided the terms offered are equal
ly satisfactory. AS is well-known we have an
excellent h.lf-mle track at Forest City Park,
and contest thereon between the now ac-
knOwledged queen of the turf, with an undis-
puted record of 2.16a, and her principal compe-
titor, would draw an immense concourse of
spectators from all parts of the State, while the
financial receipts would amply repay any per-
sons who may be enterprsing enough to under
go the expense necessary to such an undertake
ing. We know not whether there is any relia-
BILE foundation for the Journals assertion, but
we are certain that if such race could be ar
ranged at the place mentioned, there need be
no fears entertained as to successful result
The experiment is at least worth the trying.
Now is the golden opportunity Who will move
in the matter.
