| In the conflict of opinion among religionists
scientists, philosophers, statesmen, and politi-
clans, there is, happily, one sentiment
| which commands universal assent. That is,
that humanity requires helping hand to the
sons and daughters of misfortune and suffering
wherever found.
There is also fact of equally universal ap-
plication. This is, that every man, woman
and child in the community is liable to acct
dent, misfortune and suffering
The Maine General Hospital is founded upon
these two propositions. The premises being
conceded, land no one can question them) it
follows that the appro aching Fair in aid of the
enterprise has claim upon the practical good
will and patronage of all. The institution is
neither local in its beneficial intent, and its ad-
vsntages are to be limited to no class, sex or
condition. Though originating under the aus
pieces of science, its aim is the highest interest
of humanity.
A charity resting on such broad foundations
would seem to require no spur to secure all the
muniicence it requires But as the essential
blessings of sun and atmosphere from their
very commences are liable to be unapprecia-
ted SO the claims of this noble institution may
be possibly overlooked for kindred reasons. 1t
is gratifying to learn that a commendable de-
gree of liberality has already been manifested
in contributions to the Fair. But the time for
its opening is fast approaching, and the people
of Maine, all of whom have common interest
in its object, should not permit any lack or
waste for want of suitable and timely action.
A word to the wise is sufficient

harmless but powerful vegetable invigorant during
