Here's the whole thing packed in a nut
shell. Read these four sentences.
The reason why Mr.. Estey should not and
will not be nominated and elected Governor
of Vermont, is that he is not capable Of per-
forming the duties of that Office. He is not
educated to any knowledge even of the the
DRY Of law aud legislation and, therefore, is
not competent to interpret and execute the
laws of this state now IN force, or intelligent
ly to approve or veto future legislation.
That he is ga good, sound, honest, business
man, and lives in the right county," is all
credtable to him, and we congratulate him
on the same. But this state is under no OBJ
legations to him for his honesty, his business
capacity or his place of residence, and to
elect him governor for these reasons, would
be about as smart as to hire man to play
one of Mr.. Estcy's excellent organs in
church because of his proficiency in running
a circular SAWS. Adams Advertiser.

A Roman Catholic church in the vicinity
Of New York has just received a consign.

know the market price Of these interesting
relics, as the sum which Mrs. Peters paid
for those just brought to New York is not
named. But we imagine that set of first.

rate. They must be very effective stimu.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The Governor Question.

A few leading men, friends Of Col. John
b. Mead, met at White River Junction the
18th inst, to consult in regard to presenting
his name for the office of governor. 1t
seemed to all present that the favor with
which Col. Mead's name has been received
by the people, when mentioned in connec.
tion with the nomination, indicates that his
election would suit the people of the state
A large number of strong supporters are
eager to rally around his standard.
Under these circumstances, Col. Mead
who was present by invitation, could not
well decline to allow his name to be used
But he will take no active part in the can.

by the Spontaneous voice of the people, a
practice which we are glad to see coming 10
fashion again. Col. Mead is a noble repre-
sentative Of the agricultural interests Of the
state. lie is more than a representative
farmer; he is q representative man. The
people of Vermont know him and hold him
in high esteem, and we believe they will
make him the next governor. g. Ii. IL.

Everybody ought to see one Of Nast's re-
cent caricatures. The Investigator, smitten
with the epidemic that has ragged in the 44th
congress, approaches with his shears to clip
the lordly lion, representing the president,
when this animal simply scoops" the imper-
tinent inquirer as the carnivora sometimes
do. There is no doubt that the present
congress has vaulted quite outside Of its true
limits of investigation. But the country is
glad to know that the fund appropriated by
the government at New York election was
used to secure correct register, and that
the charge of absenteeism against Grant
melted into thin air when the records of for.
mer presidents were consulted. Still when
we consider of what stuff our present con-
gress, as a whole, is made, and how in this
country affairs are too often conducted on
the tidal-wave system, rocking from extreme
to extreme, wo need not wonder at gross
mistakes both Of ignorance and PartizanshiP

We don't know whether Mr. Estey spells
well or i'll, and we don't care; we do know
that nine-tenths of the most useful, capable
public servants that Vermont has elected to
public office within our personal recollection
are very weak in their photography and
grammar, when thrown on their own re-
sources.

the above sentence was clipped much pa.

were the latter clause of said sentence to be

DiDhtheria.

From all parts of the country we hear
Of the ravages of diphtheria. In some
cases whole families have fallen victims
to this dread disease. It is important
that all persons, especially parents,
should understand what are the fret
symptoms, and take prompt and efficient
measures Of relief. An attack of diph-
liberia usually commences with high
fever and headache, and in children
with nausea and vomiting. There is
great prostration. Upon the tonsils and
surrounding parts are seen white, snow
faky patches. In malignant cases the
patches are often yellow or brownish,
and fetid odor is perceived. A good
physician should be Immediately sum-
moned when these symptoms are no
iced. Chlorate of potash gargles and
pounded ice are useful until he arrives.
Many physicians have found successful
remedy in the use of permanganate OF
potash in connection with the tincture of
belladonna.

" For the Blood Is the Life"

See Deuteronomy, Xii. %. The blood being
tho source from which the system is built up,
and from which VIC derive our mental as we'll
as physical capabilities, how important that
it ehould be kept pure If it contain vile, fes-
terlng poisons all organic functions become
enfeebled. Settling upon important organs, as
the luDgs, ivcr and kidneys, the effect is
most disastrous. Hence it behooves all to
keep their blood in a perfectly healthy con-
dition, and more especially does this apply at
this particular season of the year than at any
other. No matter what the exciting cause
may be, the real cause Of large proportion of

nostrums, by recommending it to cure every
disease, nor does he 80 recommend it on the
contrary, there are hundreds Of diseasee that
ne acknowledges it will not cure but what he
docs claim is this, that there is but one form
OF blood disease that it will not cLre and that
disease Is cancer. He does not recommend his
Discovery for that disease, yet he knows it to
be the most searching blood-oleanser yet dis
covered, snd that it will free the blood and
system of sl other blood poisons, be they
animal, vegetable, or mineral. The Golden

the worst forms of skin diseases. rs all forms
