 On the evening of election there was an Irish fight in the course of which James Ryan struck Bernard Morghan with siung shot, cutting his head very badly. A warrant was issued for an as- sault with an intent to kill, but Ryan kept out of the way till Sunday when he was 1 arrested, brought before Justice Meafoy 1 on Monday, and bound over in $500 bonds for trial before the Superior court The vaccination of those who were thought liable to take small pox has been completed, except in the few cases that refused to submit to the operation. Dr. Beach has vaccinated 1O11 persons in all, l over half of whom had been Yaccinat- ed before. Nevertheless, in about sixty per cent of these revaccinations the virus took, showing the necessity of the opera tion. As near as we can learn, about a subject regarding which there is such diff ferance of opinion vaccination in infancy or childhood affords protection only for a comparatively short time on growing up re-vaecination is necessary in most instan- ces. Where vaccination takes, with an adult, however, 1t seems to be doubtful 1 whether representation will ever be neces- sary. It is the great change that takes place in the physical system between childhood and maturity that makes re vaccination peculiarly necessary. We cannot at all understand the prejudice some people seem to have against vaccii nation. Although liable to penalty for refusal over twenty people positively o.be vaccinated. As vaccination in infancy un- questionably affords no reliable protection after the subject has arrived at maturity, we think that, in such cases at least, the statute should be enforced and the penal ty collected. r @'g
 There have been an unusual number of disgraceful drunken rows in the streets during the week past. We noticed man struggling down East street with mus ket, Tuesday afternoon, whose gait was worse tangled than any marching we have seen since the subsistence of the Jackson Guard. He came to dead halt against g post and contemplated the Congregation al church for minute as if he thought of shooting it, and then staggered of over. the brow of the hill. Perhaps our Demo cratic authorities cannot be expected to interfere with such an inalienable Demo- cratic right as getting drunk, but we sub- init that people in that condition should not be allowed to carry firearms. The Litchfeld Light Guards are drilling assiduously for the Election Par 1 ade, next week, at which the entire four regiments of State militia are to be pres ent. Our company was out Monday night. It makes fine appearance, and marches we'll notwithstanding the limited amount of practice in that exercise they have been able to have since their organization. There will be parade in uniform, on Saturday afternoon, at 8 p. m ssaj sa8 We notice with regret that the Rev. MT. Chapman, pastor of the Methodist church, leaves 'Litchfeld, this year. He is preacher of unusual ability, and has won the respect of all, without as well as within his own denomination. aa s-5'esisa
