If there is any law that needs overhaul
ing and revising, it is that relative to the
disposition of murderers who are acquitted
on the ground of insanity. 1t is but few
days ago that Scanned was so acquitted in
New York, and he is now at large, having
been pronounced sane. So Lands was ac-
quilted, last week, of the murder of Car
ruth, the jury pronouncing him insane. OF
his guilt there was no question, but the jury
having found him insane, he could not be
convicted of crime, only restrained during
insanity. Almost Immediately he was
brought before the court, examined by COM
petent physicians, declared perfectly sane,
and was discharged from custody. Is it
not about time the laws were SO amended,
that this farce could not be repeated

A rascally young Frenchman recently
constructed free pass in the shape of a
wooden leg that carried him from Sher-
brooke, p. O., TO Concord. He simply
made a leg OF white ash with cushioned
socket for his knee to rest 10, crooked his
leg at a right angle and started. Wherever
he went the conductor passed him, while
the passengers dropped money and tears
into his hat. When he reached Concord,
after leaving the train with a caution from
the conductor not 10 clip down, he pulled
off bis funny wooden leg, waved 1t in the

METHODIST MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION


The ministerial association met in the
Methodist church at ten o'clock.
The Rev. s. Washburn of Middlebury,
Rev. NJ. Tator of Ca,tleton and Rev. J.
w. Eaton of Rutland, read excellent
papers on Exegesis "a Cor. Ole.
The afternoon session met at . o'clock.
Rev. A. V. Marshall of Mendon, and Rev.
j. 3. Mott of Middletown, read interesting
papers on "Should the presiding eldershlp
be made elective ?"
A spirited discussion followed, partici-
pated in by Rev. J. w. Eaton, Elder Wat
son, MIR. Marshall and others.
Mr.. Eaton thought that not only should
the presiding elder be elected but that he
should be invested with some authority,
and that nominations should be made by
the bishop subject to the advice and con-
sent of the presiding elder. One of our
bishops, he said, (referring to Bishop
Haven,) whose mouth was open from
Maine to California, had been sent to Mcxi-
co with what had been APPLY termed Gun
"limitcd ndiscretion." He thought it bet
ter to throw up safeguards before any dam
age had been done for the want of them.
The next speaker agreed with Mr.. Eaton
Still he thought the presiding elder had a
power now. He had seen bishop back
down from a position he had taken when
opposed by the presiding elder now pres
ent. Some bishops had too much of the
autocratic feeling about them.
The presiding elder said that while his
preferences were not very strong, he
thought the present plan the best. 1t is an
old question--had been discussed in every
conference until twenty or thirty years
ago the church settled down to its present
policy. lie said he would like it better if
the brethren who wrote on the subject
would exhibit little more intelligence and
less error. Wesley had assumed the au-
thority of appointing all the preachers of
the church, and that custom had continued
in this country.
There are too many elections now. He
| believed in Commemorative government, SO
far as power can be safely concentrated.
The president of the United States should
be elected but once in twelve or twenty
years. These frequent elections are bad
things Look at congress- What has
been done this session but arrange for the
coming elections? SO the agitation
extends throughout the country and keeps
it in ferment. The church had grown
and prospered in the present custom, let
well enough alone.
After some further discussion Rev. p.
Marshall read paper. on "Faith, its ma.
ture and Province" After which the
association adjourned.
AT balf-past seven the Rev. +. Marshall
preached sermon.

but by breaking Gods laws man has
brought disease upon himself. The worst
of these are throat and lung difficulties.
Our climate is very ehangeable, and of
course every one is more or less liable to
colds, coughs and throat difficulties, which,
II not attended to at once, very often prove
serious and hasten their victims to the
grave. Now, it stands us in hand to guard
against these diseases When God made
man he breathed into his nostrils, not his
mouth, the breath of life. intended he
should always breathe 50. How is it to-
day. Every person who is troubled with
these diseases breathes through his mouth.
Is it any wonder then that we have so
much catarrh and throat and lung difficult
ties. There is nothing better for throat
and lung difficulties than Kendall's Pee
toral Balsam. Now, if any of you have
weak lungs, coughs, colds, or any disease
OF the throat and lungs, if you viii stop
breathing through your mouth and take
kendall's Pectoral Balsam, you will soon
be healthy and happy. Try it. Only so
cents per bottle. Sold by all dealers in
medicine.
