improvement until the middle OF March. when
friend brought this balsam to my notice. tried the
and had no occasion to try any more, for within
twelve hou-s from taking the first dose the cough
entirely left me- Tne result seemed little less than

remedy and, far as learn, in every instance with

lowing the other. One is sacred to the mem Dry
of all the saints and angels, the other com.
memorates the faithful dead In Germany, on
All Souls day the people, both Catholic and
Protestant, visit the church yards to strew
flowers on the graves, and in the churches the
mass of requiem is sung and the Office of the
dead is recited. We have no All Saints day in
our New England calendar, but do you not,
gentlemen, each one of you recall some faith
full soul, now still, whose ardent spirit and
feryent devotion, and whose heart, all filled
with genteness, and hope and courage made
him a martyr ten short years ago. but would if
he had lived as many centuries back, have
placed him on the roll of saints and sent him
down to the latest generations. Let US not
underestimate heroism because it is near.
Looking in the calendar for the 3Oth day OF
May, found four saints who are then COM
memorated. There was q pope aud martyr,
and recluse who ran away from the tempta-
tions of the world and hid himself in hut,
and king who served the church at the ex-
pense of the people, and little better, an
Englishman, rustic, day laborer noted, the
books say, "for his devotion to God. But
how many quet. graves are there IN Name TO-
day, how many in this Kennebec valley, how
many in this town, where rest the bodies OF
men who in every essential of heroism, in
every title to gratitude, in every claim to re-
memhrance, as far outstrip the saints of the
calendar as any brave man who dies fighting
cabin from the temptations he dares not fight
and shirks the work he was given to do. Not
such the men whose graves a grateful nation
decorates to-day. To instil deeper venera.
ton for our modern martyrs, who suffered the
torments of Audersonville and Libby prison,
or died at Bull Run or Petersburg, is to
strengthen the republic, to give new sureties
for her future well being.
II is not enough that you saved our country
once, 1t needs the steady devotion which
comes of love and fidelity, the watchful anxiety
which regard for its welfare and knowledge OF
its dangers suggest, and tine spirit OF self
sacrifice, one form of which we commemorate
to-day. That is to say-patriotism isn't spas
modic. A man can't love his country to-day
and see her robbed and degraded to morrow:
He can't give an arm or leg for her in " and
help elect to office a dishonest fellow whose
only desire is for plumber in IA or rs. AS he
fought for the best government, the truest
principles, the noblest sentiments, so he must
wish and vote for the best, the truest, the
noblest, both in principles and of men. This
it is to save your country In rs.
We are all apt to decry the present, to pro-
pounce it base and mean compared with the
glories of the past. This is not wholly just.
God knows there is enough that is discouraging

We learn that the old IIallowcll Academy build
tors on reasonable terms; and the suggestion may
perhaps be timely for city to purchase the
premises and fit up accommodations for our gram
mar and intermediate schools. Several of our
old school houses might be sold to advantage to
ali concerned, and furnish something of q fund to
aid in the enterprise. The Academy lot is
quite central, and the building might be remod-
eled and modernzed without subjecting the city
to heavy burden. All will agree that we are
lamentably deficient in school buildings to meet
the wants and necessities of the present day,
to say nothing OF the prosperous future to which
we are all looking with confident expectation,
faith and trust. Most of the cities and larger
towns Of our State have school houses of modern
construction that prove not only creditable to
the enterprise of the localities but also advanta-
geous in an economical point of view. This SUBJ
ject is worthy Of thought and judicious action.
Why would it not be good speculation for our
city to sell the "sumpage within the city limits,
to the highest bidder, in order to raise fund for
setting out more ornamental trees for another
generation to cut down whenever there may be .
