A CURIOUS CASE OF HYDRopHoBIA.-The
other day gentleman from Portland, whose
name we did not learn, came to Augusta &C.
companed by friend, and was stopping at the
house of Mrs. Temple on Granite street. One
evening, after supper, he was sitting with his
friend in the front yard engaged in smoking.
he remarked that a fit was coming on, as he
felt the unmistakable symptoms He was soon
rolling upon the ground, frothing at his mouth,
and to all appearances in mortal agony. He
made q noise somewhat similar to the barking
of dog. He would also try to bite. Five
persons attempted to hold him, but were unable
to do SO during his most severe commissions.
The poor fellow remained in this condition
some twenty-four hours, and did not appear to
be greatly exhausted when he came to himself.
He remarked that the reaction always came
two or three days afterwards. He relates that
twelve years ago he was bitten by dog, and
since that time, annually, and only once year
he is afflicted by these manifestations that great
ly resemble hydrophobia. He always had suff1-
Gent warning of their coming. They occur
later every year; last year he was attacked in
june When he is conscious of an approach
ing attack he takes the precaution to lie down,
or otherwise he has a desire to pursue and bite
whoever may come in the way.-Augusta Jour-

A Model for Letter.W Writers.

Gov. Tilden's letter is the theme OF the hour.
BE has spent nearly two months studying over
1t. Here is letter that doesn't seem to have
had even two hours reflection; yet with all
his study Gov Tilden has never written any
thing that goes 60 straight to the hearts of the
American people. Extracts from it have been
published, but the whole text is worth presery-
Ing. 1t is taken from Life of Gov. Hayes,
by Mr.. j. Q. Howard, soon to be published in
Cincinnati. The Hon. William Henry Smith,
to whom it was addressed, is one of Gov.
Hayes's earliest and most intimate friends, and

MATTERS IN MAINE
THE THIRD DISTRICT.
Stephen d. Lindsey Nominated.
MATTERS IN MAINE
speech Of Senator Blaine.

AUGUSTA, Aug. 9.-At the Third District
Congressional Convention. held here today,
Christopher Prince of Thomaston, presided
Stephen D. Lindsey of Norridgewock, was NOM
mated for Congress for the long term, and Ed
win Flye of Newcastle, for Mr.. Blaine's unex-
pired term,-both by reclamation. Speeches
were made by Mr.. Blaine, Gen. Hall of DAM
sriscotta, Mr.. Lindsey and others.
Mr.. Blaine, on taking the floor, was greeted
with shouts of applause and addressed the con-
vention as follows:
Gentlemen of the Conventional came here
today rather for the purpose of shaking hands
with old friends and returning thanks for past
kindness, than with any intention of speech
making. congratulate you sincerely and
heartily on the unanimity with which you have
selected your candidates. 1t has been many
years since any contest has marred the harmO-
ny or impaired the efficiency of the Republi.
cans Of this District. and 1 rejoice that this
You have made choice of good men, and it will
be my highest pleasure to do all in my power to
promote their triumphant election. OF that
result there can be no doubt, but it rests with
us to emphasize it with an old-fashioned major
ity. speak this as a warning, not as an alarm,
for the Republicans of the Kennebec Valley
are not in the habit of being alarmed, and L beg
every man to be up and doing with zeal and
courage for The old cause now represented, and
30 favorably represented by Hayes and Wheel
er
Since the second election of Mr. Lincoln, no
national contest has been more far reaching
in its consequences than that now pending. The
Democratic party represent and embody all that
there is in the country of disloyalty and repu.
diation. don't say that every Democrat is
disloyalist or a repudiator, but it is patent to
the most careless observer that the converse of
the proposition is true. Mr.. Tilden has the rep
utation among his political friends in New
York of being wary, not to say wiry, political
manager. He has also the reputation Of pos
sessing large wealth, and of being ready to use
it to promote political ends. 1t is said that he
has marked the state of Maine as good field
for the investment of his political funds with
the hope of reducing our majority in Septem-
Der. Certain we'll known Democrats who are
now on the itinerant list in this state are said to
be part of the modified army of Tilden.
Watch them and follow them and counteract
them, and let them know that the Republicans
of Maine are not to be bought, but that it will
require all of Mr.. Tilden's spare cash to keep
his own troops in line, and to prevent many of
them from passing over to the ranks of Re-
publican loyalty and national good faith.
Lot me conclude, gentlemen, by thanking you
most heartily for the overwhelming and almost
embarrassing cordially of your reception, and
BY expressing the hope that as my health grows
firmer shall meet you again during this most
important campaign, and meet you always
with words of cheer and assurances of victory.

Promise and Performance.

The proprietors of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
promise nothing in behalf of this famous tonic and
regulating elixir which it will not perform. No pre-
tensions irreconcilabe with common sense are made
in reference to it, bn evidence of the most positive
nature has been accumulating for quarter of
century in its behalf which proves it to be reliable
preventive and curative of malarial diseases eff
Gent and genial tonic and general corrective and
specially valuable in where the bowels, liver
stomach urinary organs affected. Debility, the
source from whence so many bodily evils spring, is
entirely remeded by the invigoratve action of the
Bitters which arrests premature decay and repairs
losses of nervous and muscular power while mprov-
ing the appetite and rendering digestion easy.
