Current Notes.

The Democratic organs of this state are far
more troubled about Mayor Green's "hun-
dred guns" than they mere over the guns
fired at Fort Sumter.-HarVord COurdnt.
There is likely to be good deal of brim-
stone in Ohio during the next campaign. Gov.
Allen, according to the Republican journals,
indulges in profanity 10 that extent that it
passes out under the door of his room in blue
Jog whenever he becomes excited. The Hon.
B. f. Wade has always had the reputation Of
being an expert in the same way, and Mr..
John Robinson, whom the Republicans have
nominated for Mayor of Cincinnati, is said to
use expressions which would knock the bark
off of hickory tree.
1t has been several years since the Repub-
licans of this state have really stripped them
selves for work and gone into the campaign
with flying banners and exciting mass meet
ings, but this spring is to see a change. A
much more hopeful spirit has been infused
into the canvass since the New Hampshire
election, while, at the same time, the manly
action of our congressman places Us superior
to the partisan legislation Of the last congress.
We have honest men for candidates as rule
men who are to be respected as such. hold
ing principle and country superior to party
and personal ends.-Wdteerbury american.
The New York Herald's Washington spec
ial says :-"Governor Hendricks of Indiana,
prominently mentioned as the next Demo-
cratic candidate for the presidency, has en-
gagged the finest suit of rooms at one of the
principal hotels here for the entire session of
the next congress. This fact has awakened
the few aspirations for that honor to a real
ization of the nearness of the time when the
Democratic national executive committee
will meet and decide upon the place where
the nominating convention shall be held.
Governor Hendricks, it is said, means TO take
the field in person, and look to the Demo-
cratic influence in the next congress to insure
his success"
The white people of the south leaned upon
the Democratic party some,fitteen years ago,
only to find tia broken. reed. They cannot
well afford to repeat the experiment. They
are not in position, at present, to indulge
in the luxury of partisan politics. Self-pres-
ervation is the first law OF nature, we are
told. Under that law, their present duty is
clear. 1t is to cleanse their own hands and
skirts of injustice, to avoid even the appear
ance of evil in their dealings with the blacks,
to elect their best and wisest men to Office,
and, for the rest, to hold themselves aloof
from the angry strife of the parties over the
loaves and fishes.-Sprinafeld Republican.
If corrupt men are nominated by the par
ty managers, refuse to vote for them, even il
a Democrat is elected. did it in Massachu-
sets. We are just as good Republican state
as ever, and can give $4,000 majority at the
next presidential election as easily as in 1868
and 1872.-Judge Hoar IN his Campaign
Speech at Hartford

As indicated in our last issue, the Eastern
hallroad interest triumphed at the Maine
Central STOCKHOLDERS meeting at Watervile,
yesterday. For many reasons we wish the
result had been different. #. however, the
gentlemen who have been selected to manage
the affairs of that corporation, preserve the
present harmony, and labor to bring about
reforms which will promote the business in
terests of all parts of the state without dis
elimination, they will find none more ready
to recognize their efforts in that direction.
and assist them to the utmost than the Press.
1t is not question of men which interests
us, but the interests of the people of Maine.
But two of the old friends of the road are
given a place IN the new board, Messrs. Co.
burn and Alden. Having labored to bring
about the present peaceful relations with the
Boston roads, and being advocates of the In
dependence of the Maine Central, they will
resist any encroachments upon the present
policy. The name of Gov Coburn at the
head of the new management, is guarantee
of an honorable policy so far as it is in his
power to promote it.

THE Democrats in the Senate carry parti-
sanship to an extreme length when they re-
fuse to support resolution approving the
Presidents action so far only as directed
merely to the protection of the government
and the people of state against domestic vi
olence and civil war, and to the enforcement
of the laws of the United States-an action
justified and even commanded by the consti-
tuition. The resolution expressly avoided the
approval of any interference of the military
with the legislative body, or of the rightful
origin and legal validity Of the Kellogg gov
ernment.

The old familiar Democratic ring, the ring
Of copper, is heard in the United States Sem
ate once more. Mr.. Eaton, the reactionist
who represents the Democracy of Connecti-
cut, has been going back to the constitution
al debates of the closing years of the century,
and arguing that the statessare sovereign ma
tions. 1t appears that the first outcome of
Democratic victory is a fiat refusal TO accept
the results of the war. The Democrats have
entirely forgotten their liberalism" of 1872,
and are advancing the doctrines and ideas OF
the anti-war party Of a dozen years ago.

of the war balloons were constantly
being dispatched, some carrying let

sixty in all were sent cut, most of
which were utilized by the postoffice

DENTITION IN CHILDREN.

Is it true that dentition in children
is dangerous and often fatal pro-
cess?
Ans.-If the child is healthy and
properly reared, dentition should not
cause much disturbance to the system
II the child is feeble and not properly
fed, there may be trouble and danger
1t is very fashionable to ascribe
to teething nearly all the troubles
that occur during its progress, blt
this must be received with much al.
lowance. The following is the order
for the appearance of the teeth:
From the fifth to the seventh month
the two lower front teeth. From the
ninth to the eleventh month, the four
upper front teeth. From the thir-
teenth to the fifteenth month, two
more lower teeth, adjoining those
which came first, and the four first
pre-molars. This makes twelve in all
From the sixteenth to the twentieth
month, the four canine teeth. Those
in the upper jaw como first. From the
twentieth to the thirtieth month, come
the second pre-molars,
In case of poorly nourished children
the teeth do not appear as soon, or, If
they do they are apt to be bad. The
second dentition begins about the
sixth year. The Lest treatment il
good hygenic care, rest, sleep, and
caution about diet, and the avoidance
of all excitement.-Herald Of health.

| is ungrsesous; their appearance is for.
bidding; and, in judging of persons
| not quite as regular as themselves
they are harsh, arrogant, and unchar.
itable., A Sabbartarian gloom sur
rounds them and their whole walk
and conversation appears expressly
coiItrived to make morality disgust
ing. Some men, too, there have been,
who have strictly observed the more
obvious rules of m orality, while prac-
ticing deep and damnable wickedness.
Others again have been sincerely vir-
tuous,' but have possessed very linn
tied capacity, and have done prodi-
gious harm by their obstinate adher-
ence to an unwise course. Such q
man was George the Third, king of
England. He appeared to be con-
scientious and truly desirous of gov
erning his kingdom we'll. but, being
very ignorant, he was easily deceived
and gmisled and being very obstinate,
he clung to his errors with a pertinac-
ity which nothing could relax. have
eften thought that a virtuous man,
like George the Third, does more
harm to the cause of virtue than q
vicious man like George the Fourth
because the enc makes virtue appear
contemplate, while the other makes
vice appear contemptible.
I can well remember, when was at
school at White Plains, Westchester
county, New Y York, how sour and dis
agreeable some of the elders and dea-
cons, perfectly yirtuous men, mo doubt,
made themselves to the achoolboys Of
that pleasant village. At the same
time, some of the rakish young men,
and several of the wicked old politi-
clans, were always polite and agreea-
BILE to me-, think we all got the i'm
preston that it was rather stupid
thing to be vintuous, and many of US,
I fear, acted upon that impression
Fatal error! Grievous fault! Every
man should not only be virtuous, but
should take special pains to make vir-
tue engaging and attractive. Beware
Of being repelled from what is good
by the mistakes or incompleteness OF
those who discover the loveliness Of
virtue so early in life that they arc
never, even for a mement, deceived by
the illusion of vice! Vice is an illu-
sion. r
No great career without great
health. No great health, either to
body or ssul. without virtuous habits.

Daniel, ''about what did once. It'll

less tale with simple pathos, and dis
played a touching regard for youth.
When he got through Jay Gould
and the aged Daniel, who
had apparently not noticed him before,
turned toward the hero of the tall
tower and the Black Friday and said
"You hain't got no heart, no how"
and sat down to painful thought. The
great man gazed at the venerable fl
nancier i'm respectful admiration.
