CONGRESSMAN BURLINGTON of Massachu-
sets testified before the Poland Committee,
Tuesday night, that Gen. Butler told him
when the election of Senator Carpenter was
pending, that he had called upon the Union
Pacific Railroad Company to advance $40, 900
to aid Carpenters cause, on the ground that
the brilliant Westerner had tongue in his
head and brains that would be useful to that
corporation. Mr.. Alley testified that the
company did not follow Buffers suggestion.
In view of the fact that Gen. Butler took
$4,000 for the advice by which the Credit Mo-
bilier ring retained its hold on the Pacific
Railroad organization, and this late testimony,
it would seem fitting that the gentleman from
Essex should withhold further attacks upon
Messrs. Dawes and Garfield

Good Reading for the Legislature.

The Colonial Farmer of Fredericton N. B.
has a strong article concerning the disgrace
full proceedings in the Maine Board OF Agrl-
culture at Winthrop which resulted IN inc
displacement of Mr.. Goodale as secretary.
After quoting our article on the subject ana
expressing the hope, in when we hear'iiy
concur, that Mr.. Boardman Will be aoie TO
show the people of Maine that he was not
marty to this conspiracy. the Farmer says:
Mr.. Goodale's name throughout The farm
mo districts of this Province has become al
most household word. His valuable Re-
morris extending over period of sixteen years
have been read with the greatest interest and
much profit by all who have fortunately had
the privilege of receiving them, and his opin-
ions are quoted in almost every part of the
world To him the Department of Agricul-
ture at Washington had often turned for in
formation and tor reports on the great and
leading questions connected with Agriculture,
and generally his views and opinions have
been adopted without reserve. Mr.. Goodale's
removal cannot be but an irreparable loss to
his State. He has grown up with its Agricul-
tural Interest-to him it is indebted chiefly
for the present prosperity of that branch of
industry and no one living at the present
time possesses such an intimate knowledge of
the resources, capabilities, as well as the
necessities of the State in an Agricultural
point of view.
Mr.. Goodale's removal is not only q loss to
the State of Maine, but also to the whole con-
tinent, and there are hundreds, if not thou
sands, in this Province who will learn with
regret of the course pursued by the Maine
State Board of Agriculture. There does not
appear to have been charge of any nature
preferred against him. On the contrary, the
whole affair appears to have been grab for
the dollars and cents, and we regret to per-
ceive the names of gentlemen mixed up with
The affair of whom better things might have
been expected. The question Put by the
PRESS "Can the State afford to lose Mr..
Goodale's services to advance the interests of
a few intriguers ?' is one which we believe
will be loudly answered in the negative by the
whole people of Maine, and rather than dis
pense with them, it is more than probable
that they will adopt the recommendation of
their newspapers, to abolish the Board, and
appoint State Commissioner of Agriculture
IN its place, the Office to be filled by S. l..
Goodale. So mote it be.

Hon. E. w. STETsoN of Damariscotta
having been appointed the general agent of
the Reform clubs, makes an appeal for moral
support and peeuniary aid. The necessity
of the former is obvious and tho other is
needed as the 'tsinews of war; to keep an
efficient force of lecturers in the field. The
reform organization has membership of over
twenty thousand and the work is progressing.
The circular before us says that arrange
ments are making with all the clergymen in
the State to devote the last Sunday in Febru-
airy or some day Immediately after, to dis
courses on temperance and to further take up
a collection for the aid of the new reform or
ganization. The suggestions of Mr.. Stetson
are worthy of attention and his efforts should
receive the prompt support Of all friends of
reform. It need not be added that Mr.. Stet-
son is admirably adapted for the work to
which he has been called, and that all funds
put in his hands will be promptly devoted to
the work in which he is so earnestly enlisted.
Mr.. Stetson's address is Damariscotta.

SECRETARY BOUTWELL, has addressed q
letter to Senator Chandler, Chairman of the
Senate Committee on Commerce strongly
urging Congress to pass a. bill introducing
into the merchant service of the United
States the international code of signals now
in use in our navy. This code will enable
ship masters to communicate with for
eign vessels of nearly every nation,
thus rendering intercourse possible be-
tween those who speak different languages.
Mr.. Boutwell, thinks that the additional Sc
curity this code will give to property at sea
aud the opportunities it win often afford in
facilitating business will greatly counterbal-
ance the expense of its introduction. The
books and the nineteen flags necessary for
Its application will cost fraction over $50.

What Time has Taught Us.

1t has taken two thousand years to teach the world
that to sustain the body in its conflict with disease
not to help disease by weakening the body, is the
true end of medicine We have the lesson by heart at
last, however. w know, for example, that tearing

medicine Hosetters Stomach Bitters which strength
ems all the bodily powers and rallies the sinking con-
stution is the most powerful antagonist of the
bifc principle, whatever it may be- that lies at the
root Of the complaint. This knowledge has been a
long time in reaching u.s. but it is invaluable. We can
now control and cure DYSPEPSIA bilious disturbance
constipation, rheumatism, nervousness, and many

EVIDENTLY the Legislature set out Wed.
nesday with the purpose of smashing things.
First the Senate defeated the general railroad
bill by vote of two to one. Second, the
House by close but small vote, defeated that
excellent bill to ENFORCE education upon those
who now persist in being Ignorant; and then
took the vitals out of the bill compelling vac
cination. There is logic in this; for when
people are allowed to be ignorant, it isn't
worth while to enact law to protect them
against any other contagion. -

VICE PRESIDENT CoLFAx.-'Perley's" des-
patch to the Boston Journal of Wednesday
says, respecting Mr.. Colfax's defence Tuesday:
There has been a general anxiety this even
ing to learn what the statement of Mr.. Colfax
would be, and now it is known, he is almost
unanimously declared innocent of even mis-
statement. His principal witness, Mr.. George
w. Mathews, his step-father, has been for
years an officer of the House of Representa-
tives, and his reputation for veracity is unexcep-
tiOnal. Not only Mr. Mathews and his daught-
er remember to have seen Mr. Colfax receive
the $1,000 from George f. .Nesbitt for political
purposes, but Mr.. Colfax has received tele-
gram from another sister residing in Iowa, stat
ing that she has letter from their deceased
mother, Mrs. Mathews, narrating the incident
as proof of the political confidence reposed
in her son Schuyler. The other $500 deposited
was paid to Mr. Colfax that day by Mr. Math-
ews, who had borrowed it to purchase o piano
with
. The political enemies of Mr. Colfax are dis
appointed, as they expected Mr.. Ames would
have produced a receipt for the $1,000, and they
hint that it may be forthcoming yet But Mr..
Ames was closely examined on this point by
Judge Hale, and he stated that he had not been
able to find any receipt or other paper signed
by Mr.. Colfax. Ames stated that $10, 900 was
sent by him to Wisconsin at the request of
Gen. Butler, to aid in the bringing about the
election of Mr.. Carpenter to the Senate, which
has been known in political circles here since
the transaction occurred.
