OLYMPIA. SATURDAY MORNING. MAR. 80, 1872.
THE MUNICIPAL ELECTION.

On Monday next the annual election OF
town Councilmen and Mayor will occur
under the new charter, prepared expressly
for our citizens by the late Legislative AS
sembly. The issue presented at the time
the charter was enacted against the pro
test Of minority of our citizens, is the
main principle involved in the election
now to be held. 1t is to be determined
whether the people will allow capital to
control, or the manhood Of the community
whether wealth weighed in the scale is to
eounterbaleace brains and muscle, and that
100, with the free consent Of the latter
The Representative of this county in the
late House declared that if a majority Of
our people we're opposed to the charter he
would not insist upon its passage. A ma.
jority demonstrated, but it made him only
the more determined in his efforts to Sc
cure its passage as law. The member
Of the Couucil-a one.horse banker on
Main street-declared that capital and not
population should rule ia all municipal
elections. The action Of the present
Board has afforded the pretext fs4 the is
sue as here presented. Recognizing the
right Of all to the beue6tsof legislation for
public improvements, they have expended
the public money upon all the streets, as
signing to each proportion commensurate
with its necessities and the advancement Of
the public interests. This did not, and
does not, suit few selfish individuals
represented by Mr.. Smith, aud the attempt
will be made next Monday to elect Board
Of Councilmeu who will as in times of yore
expeud all the public revenue in front of
their own premises, and for the benefit Of
a single block or two in the center Of
town.
Citizens Of Olympia, examine this sub
ject thoroughly before casting your ballots.
Remember that if the power passes from
you it is with difficulty regained. Decide
whether your interests will be advanced
by the election of men who believe money
should rule, and that Mais street is the
only thoroughfare, or for men of liberal
views, where public duty isnot determined
by sympathetic nerve leading to their
own pockets and which controls the whole
animal organism. Popular opinion has not
yet determined who the candidates on
either side will be, but that the issue is
presented as stated is as apparent as that
the sun shines at MONDAY.

Self knowledge" was the theme OF
discourse at the Methodist church on the
Sabbath. Self knowledge in this world
and in the next. knowledge" as Lord
Bacon observed is power but especially
so is self knowledge. But the latter
species of knowledge is confcssedly diff
cult in this present world. We here see
but in part and if anything be painful
to us, we have the power to avert it. We
can 20 to our farms, to our merchandise
to our professions, our studies. And yet
the very thing which gives us pain, and
from which we turn away, may be, and
generally is, the very thing most neccs-
sary to know, in order to self knowledge.
Thus few, very few know, and fewer still
really wish to know themselves.
But there is period of existence COM
ing swiftly, coming upon ALL when kncwl-
edge of self will be clear, distinct, and
unvarying Where no one will be able
to put it away, however uneasy it may
make them, however much pain it may
cause. The fact of sin within us is the
cause of our limitation of self knowledge
in this world; for the knowledge of it
gives pain. But this fact of sin cannot
be averted in the future life for we can
not escape these, the conscious presence
ola God of purity, nor the conscious
presence of ourselves, as sinful beings
while, in addition the sources OF worldly
dissipation, diversion and qualification
will be found no more. Self knowledge
therefore, if sought for in the light and
by the help of the gospel, may become

joy i; but if deferred until eternity shall
force it upon US will on the other hand
prove the occasion, of uncomfortable an-
guisb. The thought is worth of earnest
attention.

MAY n AND %,
My REASONS.


Knowing of the many prejudices existing in the
public mind as well as in the mind of the "regu
lar Physician" against specialists or "traveling
physicians, | feel that few explanatory words
in regard to my position, and the circumstances
which Induce me to Gravel" are duo to the pub
lie as well as to myself. Before making engage
ments to visit diferents points, in Vermont and
vicinity, was almost daily in receipt of letters
from parties in the country who, though anxious
to consult me, avowed their utter inability to como
to Burlington for that purpose; and being anxious
to meet tho wishes of those applicants, but con-
WINGED ofthe uselessness and danger of prescrb-
ing without previous personal examination,
finally determined on making regular visits to as
many towns in Vermont and vicinity as my time
would admit of, and thus afford such persons an
opportunity of consulting me.
From the commencement of my professional ca
reer, my time and attention has been exclusively
devoted to the study and investigation of diseases
of the NASAL CAVITY, THROAT, LUNGS and
CHEST, to affections of the EYE and EAR, and
arrangements of tho NERVOUS SYSTEM. My
speciality embraces the eradication of CONSUME
TON, CATTARII, THROAT DISEASES, AT
FECTI0NS of the VOCAL ORGANS, ASTHMA,
and all LARYNGIAL, BRONCHIAL and Pull
MONARY COMPLAINTS, the removal of DEAF
NESS, DISCHARGES from the EAR, NOISES in
tho HEAD the restoration Of DEFECTIVE
SIGHT, by medical and surgical means, and the
treatment of all diseases leading to GENERAL
DEBILITY, or to the establishment of consump-
ton.
In every case coming for examination, can
did opinion will be given as to the probability of
a cure and no case will DO accepted for treatment
which does not offer a reasonable chance of sue
cess.
In opening permanent Office in the TIMES
BUILDING Burlington, for the cure of all chronic
diseases, where will DO found in personal attend
ance most of the time. 1 am determined to do
everything in my power in order to strengthen
the good opinion, which from my reputation, may
be already entertained of me, and to exert my
self TO the utmost in behalf of those who may
confde their caser to my professional care.
| In conclusion, permit me to assure the public
that invalds coming under my care, may expect
to receive every benefit guaranteed by science,
SKILL and comprehensive experience.
