TIE NEw LIQUoR Law takes effect July
/. II prohibits the sale of intoxicating
drinks without license; prohibits its sale to
intoxicated persons or to persons in the
habit Of getting intoxicated, or to minors
without a written order from their parents
or guardians or family physician; it makes
the seller liable 10 pay reasonable cor
pensAtioR to any person who may take
charge and care of au intoxicated person,
and s. day IN addition for every day such
intoxicated person shall be kept IN coDse-
quence Of such iutoxication; il also makes
the seller liable for all damages done by a
person 10 whom be may have sold liquor. il
imposes fines for violating or evading the
law, provides the manner OF prosecution &c
&C., aud requires heavy bonds from a.
licensed persons.
The law is a very severe one, nud with I
large portion OF the citizens Of cities and
towns is very odious. 10 the agriculture
parts Of the country il is popular, and vii. b
easily enforced Ia towus and cities ",
docb. if /; can be enforced.
It is also a question whether persons vh,
now have a license are liable to its proyis
ions until their present license shall hsv'
/ expired.

The Democratic and llOlXN Yar.
den Conventions at Chelsea.


From our special correspondent, on the spot
The simon pure Democracy and
the Dolly Vardens met in their re.
spective conventions ut Chelsea
Aug. Z, for the purpose Of nrrang.
ing the nuptials preliminary TO the
marriage ceremony III the afternoon.
The Democracy assembled in the
Town Hall, very respectable in
point OF numbers there being from
seventy FIVE to q hundred present.
Many of the old democratic war
horses were on the track as fresh az
they were thirty or forty years ago.
The Convention was organized by
electing Hon. Z. Perrin of RAN
dOlph, President, and Il. Sprague of
Randolph, Jacob Mills of Orange,
and Hon. Daniel Colt of BroOkf field,
Vice Presidents. II. q. Hatch of
Strafford, and w. IL. Davis of Chel
sea, Secretaries.
The DOllys met In Hotel Hall and
numbered twenty five all told, ten
to yns represented. George bod &c of
Randolph, President. Il. II. Wiley
Of Randolph as Secretary. Both
conventions appointed their nolni.
mating committees and committees
OF conference, who met and brought
forth the following ticket:
For SenatOrs--John Il. Pickett,
Bradford, Il. f. Claffin, Brook field.
For Assistant Judges-D. NJ.
Richardson, Vershire, Ira Mann,
Braintrce.
For States Attorney-Iliram
Blaisdell, Randolph.
| For High Shcriff-Wm. Kimball,
West Fairlcc.
For High Bailif-D. +. Chapman
Of Tunbridge.
For Judges of Probate-C. B.
Leslie Of Wells River. Jesse Carter,
Randolph.
The. committee on resolutions re-
pofnal, endorsing those adopted at
B Burlington. and pledsing support of
candidates nominated Sc.
Then followed the OratiOns by
Hon. Z, Perrin, VIM. Sanborn, Hon.
ID. Colt, Mr.. Dearbon, Hiram Blais,
dell and Major II. Smith. The lat.
ter being called out, kicked over the
ira ces, knocked over the wedding
cake and declared he was not IA
Greeley man. He refuted the charge
that Gen. Stannard had detrauded
the Government. as his bOndsnen
had saved it harmless. Also show.
ing that out OF large number of
alleged dcfalcations, all but two or
three were appointees of Andy John
son, whom the Democrats once mar.
Red at Philadelphia.
MIR. Perrin eulogized Gen. Grant
as a General, but Mr.. Sanborn tho't
he was not much of IA General, and
thus the dance went on.
1t had been arranged for the maj.
ried compile to take a wedding tour
to North Carolina, but the more re.
cent election news from that State
caused them to change their minds,
and they have concluded ir possible
to sell their tickets and defer the
trip until they hear somthing more
favorable, or until they can take a
free ride up Salt river in November.

this mass convention assembled in
the Hotel Hall they numbered

attendance from this side of the
county whom the Democrats con.
sidered ''heavy" enough for place
on the ticket, aud only three such
in the county. Many Democrats
openly declared it to be a sickening

to take this little after. dose.
