The death of John p. Hale, an obitu-
AIRY of whom will be found on first page
removes one of the early champions OF
the anti-slavery cause, who will always
be held in grateful remembrance. His
temperament was peculiarly adapted to
contend for the cause in its weakness,
both north and south, and to many it
seemed as though he was the only man
in the country to fill the position he oc-
cupied when almost alone and single
handed he maintained the principles OF
freedom in the Senate. The old anti
slavery guard felt that they had received
great accession when he came to them
and such it was. He lived to see the
threats of the slave power, made in the
Senate, to hang him, not only withdrawn
but turned into respect for him. In
times of trial and adversely, amid power
and temptation, he was faithful, earning
honorable fame to himself and country

Wall Grayson, a Creek Indian farmer
ana stock dealer, living near here, was
robbed on FRIDAY night of over $50 600
mostly in gold and silver, by a party of
three white men. One of the robbers
had been AT Grsyson's house and about
the premises for two or three days und, r
the pretenee Of buying horses. His con-
federates arrived on Friday evening, well
mounted and heavily armed, and Gray
son was Immediately seized and demand
made for his money. He refused TO de-
liver ii, whereupon he was hung to a
tree until he was nearly inseusible. He
still refused to give up his money, and
hanging was repeated six or seven times
and not until the robbers thr eatened to
hang his wife did be reveal the place OF
its concealment. Grayson lies in pre-
carious condition. Fifteen hundred dol.
lars has been offered for the arrest of the
robbers.

"War meetings" are reported in va
rious parts of the country, with reference
to affairs with Spain and Cuba, and reg
iments of soldiers are rendered to 60 and
fight for the liberation of Cuba, with as
much generosity as though it was an op-
pressed state Of the Union. 1t is much
to be regretted, whatever may be the in
ternational rights in this case, that the
Cuban Spanish authorities should have
conducted themselves in a manner to
justly excite just such Indignation. Not
all meetings or expressions are so war
like, however. Some, like that of the
board of trade at Cincinnati, are more
peaceful and recommend arbitration.

A KIND AcT.-The Cleveland Plain
dealer is responsible for story about
Barnum which it is a pleasure to repro
duce. The great Snowman is proven
bially fond of children, and little FIVE
year-old cripple at the house of friend
in Cleveland became quite a favorite
with him. When in that city with his
great show, he called, and was made
aware of the child's sorrow at not being
able to go to the menagerie. "Never
mind" said Mr.. Barnum, if you can
not go to the show we must bring the
show to you" Sure enough, he did.
In a short time procession of elephants,
caniels and other animals marched into
the back yard, and for half an hour
performed to the delight of the little fell
low, who, bolstered up at window,
cheered merrily at the novel spectacle.

We occasionally hear complaints of
the new postage law, by people who say
they have had taken from them the priv
ilege they have enjoyed for quarter of
a century with no detriment to the coun-
try or its government. We don't know
as there is any probability that the new
equality" law bearing on this point, will
be repealed, buff congressman could hear
some of the remarks made, we should
expect its repeal in thirty days.

STATE FINANcEs.-The State finances
are in sound condition. The total in
debtedness is only two hundred and
ninety-two thousand dollars, and there is
and will be enough on hand of the I'M
expended appropriation of last year to
meet all the bonds which mature in IA !;
consequently no money will have to be
voted save for ordinary current expenses
until 1876. The st. Adams Messenger
says that another gratifying fact, and
one which speaks volumes in praise Of
the credit Of the State is that during this
panic, when men we're throwing securi-
ties of all sorts on the market, on which
TO realize, or of which to get rid, the
Treasurer has been able to buy but FIVE
thousand dollars Of Vermont bonds, and
had to send to Baltimore for them.

association at Chicago reports that the
number of hogs packed to date, this sea-
son, in Chicago, Cincinnati, St. Louis,
Louisville, Milwaukee, Indianapolis, Pc
oria and Des Moines is 680,667, or 1885,
394 more than at the same period last

lhe following IL oshhtor Duinuei
letter to the New York Cuban lndigna-
ton Meeting;
Boston, Nov. 10th.
Gentleman 1t is not in my power to
be with you at your meeting TO ask for
Justice in Cub. Allow me TO add that
longing for immediate emancipation in
this neighboring island where slavery
still shows its Infamous front, and al
ways insisting that delay is contrary TO
justice, | do not think it practicable at
this moment on existing evidence to de-
termine all our duties in the recent case
where civilization has received shock
1t is very easy to see that no Indignation
at the dreadful butchery so inconsistent
with the spirit of the age, but unhapily
aroused by an Illicit filibustering expedi-
ton from our own shores kindred To that
of the Alabama, Tor which England has
been justly condemned in damages, can
make us forget that we are dealing with
the Spanish nation, struggling under ter
rible difficulties to become sister repub-
lie, and therefore deserving from US
present forbearance and candor. Nor
can we forget the noble president, whose
eloquent voice, pleading for humanity
aud invoking our example, has so often
charmed the world. The Spanish repub-
lie and Emilio G stellar do not deserve
the menaces of war from US. If watch
words are needed now let them be: elm
mediate emancipation and jus ice in Gu.
ba; success to the Spanish republic i;
honor and gratitude to Emilio CASTELAR,,
and peace between our two nations. "
Bearing these in mind, there will be no
occasion for the belligerent preparations
of the last few days, adding to our pres
ent burdensome expenditures several
millions Of dollars, and creating a wal
fever to interfere with the general health
of the political body.
| am, gentleman. your faithful servant

Gilman Marston, Geo. G. Fogg, Mason

The news from Spain is more pacific.
The story of mobbing the U. S. Minis

There was some disturbance in the streets
but no serious demonstration. The feel

the United States, but at later accounts
cooler counsels are likely to prevail

New Hampshire.

The political parties of New Hamp-
shire are moving with reference to call
ing conventions and making nominations
for the election next spring. A meeting
of the republican State Committee was
held at Concord last week, and the time
fixed for holding the conventions through
out the State. The State Convention is
to be held at Concord, Jan. 7th. The
fourth Councillor district, Sullivan coun
ty and tenth Senatorial district conven-
tions are to be held at Claremont Wed.
Jan 14th. The ninth Senatorial district
and Cheshire county conventions will be
held at Keene, Thursday, Jan. 10Th.
Action of sympathy was taken with
reference to the death of Hon. John p.
Hale, and business being over, several
speeches were made, among others Sena-
tor Wadleigh, who eloquently defended
the republican party. He said the very
fact that disafection exists in the party
is an evidence of honesty. The demo-
cratic rank and file follow their party
leaders, no matter where they go, but
the republican masses claim the right
to criticise and find fault with the con-
duct of their leading men. He claimed
that on all the vital questions of the
day the republican party is nearer right
than the democratic, and he did not be-
lieve that ether in New Hampshire or
in the nation would the standard be low
cred or success denied.
