Thick boots and flannes are necessary at this sea-
son, but the human frame requires something more
than these to render it waterproof The inner man.
as well as the outer surface of the body must be pro
tected. The raw, moist, chilly winds which prevail
at this season transpierce the warmest clothing and
are apt to affect the health unavorably both through
the pores and the respiratory organs. The surest
way to avert the evil is to strengthen the internal ma
chine and thus enable it to repe the devitalizng in
huence of unwholesome weather. Enrich the blood
gently stimulate the circulation regulate the bowels
inyigorate the stomach tone the liver and brace the
nerves with Hosteters Btters, and no condition of
the atmosphere, however inclement, no variation of
the barometer or thermometer, however sudden will
have power to disorder the system thus fortified in
advance, and put in perfect working order Damp
and cold acting upon sensitive or feeble organza-
ton, may produce consumption, diphtheria neural
gia, rheumatism. dyspepsia, liver complaint, low
nervous fever or intermittent fever; the Importance
OF rendering the system mpervious to these two de-
structive elements is therefore obvious Persons in
delicate health who are at all liable to be njuri-
ously affected by the atmospheric influences should
take the Bitters daily throughout the winter and
spring. In this way dangerous diseases may be
warded off, and condition of perfect health preserv-
ed by individuals of comparatively feeble physique,
while those who are more robust, who scott at pre-
cautions, are suffering the penalty of their reckless
ness in hospitals and sick rooms

THE Custom House Investigations at New
York, while they have brought to light many
wrongful transactions, some of them several
years ago, and most of them possible only be-
cause of imperfect systems for which the ad-
ministration is not responsible, has brought
to light some facts most creditable to the
President. For instance, the number of re-
movals under Collector Murphy, who retired
from office enjoying the confidence of Presi-
dent Grant, was only SO per cent. under Mr.
Grinnell, whose removal from office by the
President, was made the occasion for severe
censure, the removals were 81 per cent. I'M
der Collector Smythe, appointed by President
johnson, they amounted 81 per cent. On
the other hand, the cost of collecting the rev.
enue has decreased. Under Simeon Draper it
was 1924; under Smythe, 1.96; under Grin
nell, 1.59; under Murphy, 1.55.

Report of the Railroad Commissioners.

By the courtesy of Mr.. Howard Owen of the
Kennebec Journal, we have received advanced
sheets of the report of the Railroad Commits
sioners for the year 1871. The report is of I'M
usual length, numbering fifty-fve pages, and of
unusual interest and is in many respects de-
cided improvement on the previous reports of
the Commissioners.
The Commissioners state that they have
spent much time in examining the railroads of
the State the past season and their rolling stock,
visiting every road except the Houlton Branch
and the st. Croix and Penobscot, several times,
and the trunk lines many times. Upon two
roads the statute notice has been served that
the roads were unsafe, and others have been
frequently cautioned. During the year 174a
miles of new road have been opened, as fol-

THE PROPOSED FREE LIsT.-The Treasury
department sent to the ways and means COM
mittee Friday morning, an interesting state
ment covering list of the articles which the
Secretary recommended should be admitted free
of duty. There are in all 652, of which 213 do
not enter into competition with any pro-
duced in this country. The aggregate duty on
all the latter for the last year was however,
only $342, 1862; and the average on each but
$2623. But three,-sago, coiryarn and MACE
yielded over $4,000. In the competitive list
the highest duty paid by any one article was
$685. on potash; and fifty articles paid over

BOARD OF EDUCATIONAL. III. Abbott,
President of the Board of Education, an
nounces that it will hold its annual session of
five days, commencing January 22d, at the
office of the State Superintendent of Common
Schools, Augusta. A cordial invitation is ex-
tended to all interested in the educational
welfare of the State to attend the meeting of
the Board and to participate in its public dis
cussions. The participation of school officers
throughout the State in these deliberations is
especially solicited. No programme of the
exercises can yet be presented. Members of
the Board and others have, however, signiied
their intention to present papers and matter
for discussion of interest to all. Free return
tickets over the Maine Central railroad and
its branches will be issued to regular attend
ants who have paid full fare coming to the
Convention.

WHILE the woman suffrage advocates were
waiting impatiently for a hearing before the
Judiciary Committee, on Friday, they became
greatly Disguised at the prolonged absence of
Judge Trumbull, the chairman. When five
minutes after eleven arrived and Mr. Trumbull
had not yet opened his Committee, inquiries
began to come up, ''Where is Mr.. Trumbull?"

gone to take bath and he compels all the wo-

have been ignorant that part of the lands
which he included in the schedule were those
intended to be reserved. The Land Agent
was not informed of the transaction till some
time after, when the deed had been executed
and delivered. 1t is under the deed thus OBJ
tanned and in consequence of certain alleged
deficiencies in the proceedings of setting apart
the lands, that the company now claim title
to the whole, and have issued permits to per-
sons to cut timber on those settling lands.

A joint convention of the City Council of
Lewiston and Auburn, was held on Thursday,
upon the subject of water supply for the two
cities. A resolve was passed without opposi-
ton that sit is not compatible with the inter-
ests of the two cities that a charter to supply
water for domestic purposes from Wilson Pond
should be vested in Individuals but that the in
terests of the citiesr equire such grant" Subse-
quently an order was passed in the Lewiston
City Council appointing committee of five to
present the prayer of the city of Lewiston to
the Legislature to refuse the grant to private
individuals to take the water from Wilson Pond,
but that the grant be made to the city of Lew
iSton.

ton and Auburn, held Friday evening q COM
mittee was appointed to urge the Legislature to
grant charter for foad to connect with the
Grand Trunk railway.

out to sell the team and go to Chicago. Thurs
day, one of the selectmen from Mechanic Falls
came to Lewiston and reported the case De-

Brunswick, Thursday night night, and found

and the team were brought to Lewiston Friday
and taken to Mechanic Falls, by Deputy Sheriff
Keene.
The Journal tells the following of a GENTLE
man who has long done business in Lewiston.
This gentleman was formerly much respected,
but in the loose days of the war contracted the
habit of drinking intoxicating liquors. The
habit grew upon him, and the man went from
worse to worse spending whole weeks in drunk
en- debauchery. One day a gentleman went to
him and said: "You will be under the ground
in less than year unless you let drink alone"
"Do you think sop was the only rejoinder. The
man from that date has not touched the intoxi-
eating cup, and to-day he is worth the hand
