This wonderful vegetable
restorative is the sheet-an-
chor of the feeble and de
bilitated. As a tonic and
cordial for the aged and Ian
guild it has no equal among
stomachics. As a remedy for
the nervous weakness to
which women are especially
subject, it is superceding ey-
cry other stimulant. In all
climates, tropical, temperate
or frigid, it acts as a specific
in every species of disorder
which undermines the bodily
strength and breaks downthe
animal spirits.

DRIFTING.
BY THOMAS BUoHAEkE BEAD.
My soul to-day is far away
Sailing the Vesuvius Bay;
Ny winged boat, bird aAoat,
SNi~s round the purple peaks remote:
found purple peaks it sails, and seeks
Blue inIets and their crystal creeks,
Where high rocks throw, through deep
below,
A duplicated golden glow.
Far, vague, and dim the mountains swim
While on Vesuvius' misty brim,
With outstretched hands, the gray smok.
stands
O'erlooking the volcanic lands.
Here Ischia smiles Ger liquid miles;
And yonder, bluest of the isles,
Calm Capri waits, her sapphire gates
Beguiling to her bright estates.
l heed not if my ripping skifT
Float swift or slow from cliff to cliff;
With dreamful eyes my spirit lies
Under the walls Of Paradise.
Under the walls where swells and fulls
The Bays deep breast at intervals
At peace lie, blown softly by,
A cloud upon this liquid sky.
The day, so mild, is heavens own child,
With earth and ocean reconcilod-
The airs l feel around me steal
Are murmuring to the murmuriug keel.
Over tho rail my hand trail
Within the shadow of the sail,
A Joy intense, the cooling sense
Glides down my drowsy Incidence.
Her children, hid the cliffs amid,
Are gamboling with the gamboling kid;
Or down the walls, with tipsy calls,
Laugh on the rocks like waterfalls.
The fishers child, with tresses wild,
Unto the smooth, bright sand beguiled,
With glowing lips sinks as she skips,
Or gazes at .ne far otf ships.
Yon deep bark goes whero Traffic blow
From lands of sun to lands of snow
This happier one, its course is run
From lands of snow to lands of sun.
o happy ship, to rise and dip,
With the blue crystal at your lip:
o, happy crew, my heart with you
Sails. aud sails, and sings anew
Nomore, no more tho worldly shore
Upbraids me with its loud uproar!
With dreamful eyes my spirit lies
Under the walls of Paradise!

The workmen in Abbott steam mill recently
raised a Grant and Wilson flag A good number
were in attendauce and no little enthusiasm was
manifested.
The extensive advertisement Of Banks, Kill
patrick and other shining lights, drew quite
large crowd to the village last Saturday. Gen.
Fitzpatrick and Gov Gardner addressed the meet
ing the latter making the principal speech in the
afternoon and the former in the evening. The
simple truth is that the meeting was composed Of
a majority Of Grant men, as must have been evil
dent to the speakers themselves That Greeley
Club that has been noticed in 50 many places
don't seem to awaken the looked-for enthusiasm.
Is it true that other towns were called on to help
pay for that flag? 1t was given out that the
formidable Club would on Saturday, the 10th,
make its appearance at the Centre, whereupon
the faithful were expected to rally. One wagon
load Of seven men made their appearance, and it
was reported that there was another buggy seen,
but the rumor cannot be traced to any re-
liable source. A powerful speech was made
by the candidate for States Attorney. 1t
was addressed to the candidate for Probate
Judge, and was an earnest appeal to him to cir
cuate subscription paper, for " we've got tc
have hundred and twenty-five dollars" Ii ism t
the habit Of the worthy candidate for Judge, wher
people ask for assistance, to turn them away
empty handed, but he failed to see this thing ii
donative light, Whereupon the club or cudge
or whatever it is, departed. But we suppose " /
is all right, Mr.. p. it is all right =" If they like
/ the enthusiasm we are satisfied.

DEAru or Mr.. BuRBASK.--SlLAs BURBANK,
Esq, who held an honorable place among the old
merchants of Montpelier. died at his residence in
this village, Of consumption, on Wednesday last,
aged 65 years.
Mr.. Burbank was a native Of Montpelier, and
spent his minority with his father in the business
Of manufacturing paper. Soon after coming to
act for himself he formed partnership with Mr..
Erastus Hubbard, in the mercantile business
and two years later became associated with Mr..
James X. LAngdon. The firm Of Burbank &
LaRgdon conducted an extensive and profitable
business for nearly or quite quarter Of a cen
fury Since the dissolution Of this firm, fifteen
years since, Mr.. Burbanks failing health has
allowed Of only passive business connection for
a few years with his son--the late Lieut. WV. b.
BuRBANE-irst in this village and then in New
York
As a business man Mr.. Burbank was method-
cal, industrious, prompt and prudent, and his
integrity was entirely above suspcion-qualities
that almost invariably lead to success.
In early manhood Mr., Burbank married a
daughter of Col Barron, Of Bradford, and who
alone, survives her husband sharing the sympa-
thy of the entire community.

ten thousand majority for Greeley. In short
time it was reduced to one thousand and the

the ta-ieathers of Democrats not only dropped,
but dropped out, so that they could be picked up

when the whole nation leaned upon it and
found il a sure support. 1t went through the

If Mr.. Adams had been nominated, |
should have been seriously tempted to recon
slider my resolution. As it is / shall adhere
to it firmly, except so far as to give my vote
for General Grant. You and will thus vote
alike again, as we did in good old Wing
times, and as we have not always done since.
certainly cannot support Greeley and the
coalition. can see no safety for the coun-
try in their success. Neither reform nor re-
Cancellation could result from so unnatural a
combination, but only renewed discord and
confusion.
| would most willingly have seen the rein'
in the hands Of a ripe and experienced states
man like Mr. Adams; but | shrink from
helping 10 oyerturn the coach merely to get .

one.
This is the whole sum and substance of ny

Clerk thirty-eght years, and Justice Of the Peace
more than forty years. But his political prefer.
ences being adverse to those of the majority of Tie
town, and he being too honest to profess princi-

qualities so highly merited. lie was the Oldest

unimpaired till the time of his death He has
passed away, regretted by his friends and neigh
