noble front in battling for the right In peace or
IN war she stands foremost in the ranks
Our village is near thosonthen boundary only
dozen miles from Ohio or lndlana-and the at
mosphere-is full of all kinds Of yitupeTations
against our Republican candidates yet the thought

The west needs the proper reform more than the
east, and il would be suicidal 10 elect Tden and

already wrought enough mischief, and the coun-
Ivy wants the assistance OF stability in the ma

A COLLISION. There was a collision on the
Connecticut q Passumpsic railroad a few miles
below Passnmpsie station, on Friday last, between
a freight train going north and the Montreal ex-
press train going south As the express came
around a curve the engineer saw the approaching
train. The express train was brought to a stop,
but as the freight train, composed of some twenty
cars, had but about twice its length to run, it
oould rot be stopped, and its engine partially
mounted the passenger engine. There were quite
a number Of passengers ON the express train, but
all escaped serious injury, though some were
slightly bruised or cut.
