over $4,000 or under 5000. Well, it
did 60 over $4,000 and according to
their own figuring before election it does
indicate something decisive, and that
something is that Horace Greeley

Some time ago lady wrote to
Charles Sumner, asking him to interest
himself on behalf OF a young man who
was needy and whom she desired him TO
assist with his influence. Mr., sumner
replied that his attention was so much
occupied in looking after the welfare Of
mankind that he hadn't any time to de-
vote 10 the wants of individuals. The
lady rejoined that Mr.. Sumner seemed
to put himself higher than the Almighty,
for the Almighty, while not neglecting
the welfare of the world at large, could
still condescend TO regard the needs of
individuals. Mr.. Sumner, ashamed of
the ludicrous position in which his great
conceit had placed him, and recoilng
from this scathing rebuke, begged that
the matter might be suppressed. Bat
the story leaked out; it is literally true,
and Julia Ward Howe, the poetess, is
the lady who sent the terrific shot at the
egotist. His recent letter is born of the
same self.suilicient spirit as his answer
to Mrs. Howe.

TUE MILK rRopUoEns' CONVENTION

.
II will he remembered by readers OF
the Weekly World that some months
since Mr.. T. l.. Hart, Of Connecticut,
appeared before the Farmers Club IN
relation to the character milk sup
piled 10 the City Of New York. The
movement then inaugurated by Mr..
Hart has grown to great strength aud
Importance, and on the oath of Sep
tcmber next convention OF milk pro-
ducers is to be held in this city for the
purpose Of periecting the organization
and making tie proper arrangements
for commencing active operations. The
farmers are many Of them alive to the
importance of this movement, but still
many are apathetic, and it is time they
should arouse. This is a matter of i'm
portanco to the whole farming com
munity, whether they are or are not
sellers Of milk. 1t is struggle com
menced for right, justice, and honesty,
and it becomes every farmer to aid his
fellows in their efforts. There are
other reforms greatly needed in the sell
ling of produce about New York, and
the accomplishment of so great a
change as that involved in the milk
question cannot but be of vast service.
These gentlemen have not commenced
timidly 10 lop of little branches, but
they havs gone boldly at the main tap
root Of market swindling and food
adulteration in this city. We not only
wish them the most perfect success but
shall give them our most earnest coop
Grafton. We admire their spirit ; they
have gone to work themselves and
have not waited for the aid of the peo-
pie who are really as much interested
as themselves. The officers of the

Prospects of F. A Pike.

This gentleman don't seem to stand 50
high as he once did, in the minds Of lead
ing Republicans in Washington county.
Here's what member of the Maine Sem
ate last winter, q man of character and
influence in that county, says of him and
his prospects, in business letter to q
gentleman in this city:
political matters are getting very hot in
this district. The treachery and low. dirty talk
of F. a. Pike, have stung to madness every
Republican in this vicinity. Only think the
man we have delighted to bonor, going over
to the copperhead democracy and denouncing
his former friends with low slang and vile ac-
cusations! think the 9th of Sept, the Re-
publcans Of the Fifth District will bury him
so deep that nothing less than II universal
resurrection can reach him"
That seems to be about the feeling and
the opinion OF many who were once his
friends in this section.

Nature. App.a,. for Helm.

Every Indication of debility and exhaustion Is a
mute appeal of Nature for medicinal aid to arrest
the progress of decay. How are these silent ap.
peas of physical weakness to the resources OF the
healing art usually metz Too often, unfortunately
the drugs prescribed aggravate the symptoms.
Whoever recommends drastic purgatives, or min
eral salvants, or poisonous alkaoid under such
circumstances, is an ally OF the ailment and an
enemy of the patient. Whoever, on the contrary,
advises the broken down and Respondent sufferer
to esort to that peerless vegetable invgorant Hos
letters Stomach Btters, for aid and comfort, is
true philauthropist. 1t is safe to say that there
never was an instance in which such advice was
given and accepted without the happiest results
From the very depths of weakness and despondency
thousands have been restored to vigor, health and
cheerfulness by the renovatng operation of this
wholesome stmulant and alternative. All its med
cinal ingredients are remarkable for their sanative
properties, and in combination form an absolute
specific for indigestion, liver complaint, nervous
affections, rheumatism, Intermittent and remittent
frvers general and local weakness, and every spe-
cie- of disorder incident to change of season or
climate, The stimulatiVe element of this invalua-
bic protective and restorative Is not an impure
exetant, but the thoroughly rectified essence of
sound rye admitted by all good chemists to be the
most heaithful of exhilarants.

Mr.. G. P. kimball, the Greeley candi-
date for Governort has not forgotten his
old tricks. He is now sending broadcast
over the State circular dispara cling most
wickedly Governor Perham in connection
with soldiers pensions, publishing an ar
rant falsehood about him, and in oonnec-
ton little speech which he made before
the City Council of Portland-or pretends
to have made.
This is worthy OF the man who adver-
tises his private business in electioneering
circulars, printing the cut of carriage
and his business card on the same sheet
in which he advises his followers to steal
around in the dead hours Of the night and
secure votes if possible for c. P. kimball
Governor Perham worked ably and faith
fully as member of the Committee on
Pensions in Congress to promote the in
terests of our disabled soldiers and their
orphans and widows, but Mr.. kimball
thinks his one little speech made before the
City Council of Portland ortweighs what
Governor Perham did in Congress What
a pity Mr.. Kimball is so modest Had be
abstained from voting the copperheac
ticket during the war he might better have
claimed to be friend to the soldiers.

General Grants Nagnani,mliy.

Gen. Stephen A. Hurlbut, in his great
speech at Springfield, H., turned aside for
the moment from the main line OF his argu-
ment TO narrate the following:
Look at another thing, which shows the
magnanimty of his character. When he un-
dertook that feat around Vicksburg. Gen.
Sherman sent Gen. Grant a written protest
against the movement, on the ground that it
was dangerous and impracticable, and would
probably cost him his whole army. Gen.
Grant never needed that. He went on, exc
cuted the movement, and when the success of
it was demonstrated, he sent VIM. T. Sher-
man his original protest back again, and
would not keep it on his minutes, and VIM.
T. Sherman was not to be outdone in that
sort of thing, and he published that paper to
all the world as vindcaton of Gen. Grants
claim to be consummate soldier of div ision
at the expense of VIM. L. Sherman.

Georgia.

A despatch from Georgia says there are
$4,000 democrats in the State that will not
vote for Greeley. There is a great deal
Of friction in the working Of the Greeley
machine in that State. Greeley ought to
be in good odor in Georgia for General
John b. Gordon of the confederate army,
and democratic candidate for Governor in
1868, is out in letter to the effect that he
has assurances from Greeley himself that
in case of his election to the Presidency
he will recognize the claims of Southern
democrats in making his Cabinet and 9th
or appointments, Under this assurance,
given through General Gordon, the War
renton Clipper, General Toomb's organ,
has gone over to Greeley and Brown.

Liberal Republicanisn at u Dis
cOunt-Bad Look for Lang and
Pike.

The fate of the Liberal Republican tick
ct in Vermont is very suggestive of the
fate awaiting Liberals nominated in this
State Messrs. Lang and Pike must look
to it that there Is not "chasm" under
their feet on Monday next considerably
wider than they anticipate.
The candidate for Governor of Vermont
by the Greeleyites was Liberal Republi-
can. The campaign was conducted on
the most approved principles Of the clasp
ing hands policy. The Liberals and Dem
ocrats joined their conventions. shed mu-
tual tears Of tenderness and sympathy,
pledged themselves each to the other, and
embarked on the great tidal wave" in the
same craft.
The returns Of the election, however,
have knocked all the sentimentality and
poetry out of this sort of proceeding.
With all the strength the Liberal Republi-
can candidate could carry with him from
the Republicans he is beaten worse than
a straight democrat would have been. 1t
is evident that the democrats did not sup
port him. They have an uncomfortable
disgust at the tricks which have been
played upon them. They "don't eat crow
worth cent Mcssrs. Lang and Pike
look ont for yourselves. There's many q
democrat would rather vote for square,
toed consistent republican, able and ex-
perienced, than for a trading Dolly VAR
den republican; and faith a good many of
them will do it next Monday.
