We have been favored with large
number of fine autumn days. Many
of them have been so exceptionally
warm and agreeable as TO make us at
times almost forgetful of the season and
month. 1t is another cause for thankful
ness. If the disagreeable days of the COM
ing season could only be proportlonally
omitted, the weather GROWERS would have
to emigrate. This gentle and beautiful
autumn will leave the fuel piles in un-
usually good trim for the advent ofthe in
evitable winter. The poor at least will
appreciate this blessing.

an OPEN LETTER.

The reply of the Portland Press to
Speaker Blaine's recent letter. has prompt
ed Portland gentleman to write IAN
Open Letter to the Editor of the Press
which deals in facts and other strong
points, perhaps little to the disadvantage
of the Press in its declarations. We copy
from the Evening Advertiser:
"MR. EDITOR If understand your edito-
rial of Monday, the significance of the recent
political revolution is not to be found in the
| condemnation of Credit Mobilier frauds, In.
fation bills, louisiana mismanagem ex-
travagant appropriations, dishonesty of public
men. bad general legislation, or other official
miscon duct, but in the determination of the
people unfortunately TO turn out of Con-
gress every "old public functionary." without
regard to the character of his services. II
your reference to the election of Banks and
the turning out of Gooch means anything, it
seems to means just this,-no more, no less.
| You then proceed to make the application
to Senator Hamlin. But why stop there !?
Are we to understand that all our Congress-
| asen are TO be osiracised as fast as they can be
reached? In 1876 are we to unload Senator
Morrill,, who will have served two terms, Mr..
Blaine, with his seven terms, Mr.. Hale. with
his four terms, Mr.. Frye, with his three terms
and Mr.. Burleigh with his two terms? Or is
this rule only to work against our personal
enemies or opponents and not against our
friendsI
The writer is no advocate of Senator Ham,
lin and has taken but little interest in the
Senatorial campaign now raging, but he sees
no evidence for or against Senator Hamlin in
the result of this months elections. So far as
can understand them, they seem to teach
that the people are Disguised with the mis-.
management of Congress, particularly on the
currency question, and that they have dis
covered that bad nominations can be defeated
at the polls. But that we all found out at the
Portland elections last September.
l deny that the elections of this month tend
to show whether Senator Hamlin is or is not
an Objectionable candidate. That the people
demand change of men rather than of meas
ures, is in my opinion equally untrue, because
in many instances old members were returned
and new nominees defeated, as in the cases of
Mr.. Hoar and DR.. Aver in Massachusetts.
That the retirement Of cold public function
aries" will not always save the cause, was
also proved at our own election in September,
when the editor Of the Press himself declined
a denomination (perhaps on the same princi-
pie now promulgated by him to the world
and for all that the new man was defeated
with the other two nominees, while both the
old representatives were reelected from this
city. So Colonel Dow, the only new man,
was defeated for senator from this county,
while the three old functionaries" were not

POLITICAL,

The Old Scratch got into politics this year.
Itis given out "as by authority" that Gen.
Banks is determined not to run for the Speak
ership of the National House of Representa-
tives, even if his friends should urge him
strenuously.
They say, in Richmond. Va, that they
have not had such a downright jolly good
time since the battle of Bull Run.
Postmaster General Jewell issued an order
disseminating the pay and services of John T.
Callaghan, Special Agent of the Department.
for losning to his brother an annual pass from
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad
Company, which had been granted to him
| solely upon the ground that he was an accred.

| The estimates for the next fiscal year will
be at least Sc, 000,00 or 81. 900, 900 below the
estimates Of last year, though they will be
somewhat in excess of the appropriations
made last winter. The tabulation of the es-
Inmates is nearly complete and the members
of the Appropriation Committee are already
preparing the bills, and they win be brought
before the House at the first day possible.
Senator West has returned to Washington.

A Triumph OF Chemistry,

Among the numerous health.giving discoveries
Of pharmaceutical chemistry none has achieved a
more transcendent and lasting success than Hos
letters Stomach Btters. Ofcourse there is q rea
son for this. 1t would have been impossible to
palm off, for nearly quarter ola century, upon so
shrewd people as the Americans, mertless ar
tcle, or have established by mere advertising such
a reputation the Bitters enjoy, if they did not
possess substantial title to public confidence.
The truth OF this statement is proved by the fact
that bogus nostrums, no matter how extensively
pulled, usually enjoy but transient existence are
then discovered to be worthless, and discarded.
Hostetter's Btters on the contrary, after career
OF twenty yeals, were never popular as they are
to-day. Soon after their appearance it became
manifest that they possessed in a remarkable de.
gree the power OF tonng and regulating the human
system, and to-day they rank the standard re-.
storalive of the age. noyl8.teod&WlW

ton is a matter Of congratulation. The mod

nations. They provide as follows: Special
legislation is prohibited, thus cutting off q
great part of the field of lobby operations; a

be vetoed and the balance of the measure ap.
proved, which will enable the Governor to
act with strict justice in cases where, other
wise, he would be confined to an alternative
