Brooks, Me-, Sept, 7. 1870.

Dear Sir-from early youth was in fee
BILE health, troubled with humor in my
blood, weakness and debility of the sys-
TEN generally; was unable to labor much,
and only at some light business, and then
only with great caution.
Seven years ago, the past spring, l had
severe attack of Diphtheria, which left
my limbs paralyzed and useless, so | was
unable to walk or even sit up. Noticing
the advertisement of PERUVIAN SYRUP, l
concluded to give it trial, and to my
great JOY soon found my health improv-
ing. | continued the use of the SYRUP
until three bottles had been used, and was
restored to complete health, and have re-
manned so to this day.
l attribute my present health entirely to
the use of PERUVIAN SYRUP, and hold it
in high estimation. | can not speak too
highly in its praise. | have, in several
cases, recommended it in cases very SINH
lar to my own with the same good results.
Yours truly, CHARLES E. PEARCY.

SERIOUSLY INJURED.-Mr. George King,
a former resident of this town, was seri-
ously injured at Thurlow, on the p, W..
& B. Railroad, on Saturday last. Mr..
King, who is employed as a freight conduc-
tor, was sitting on the top of one of the
cars of his train. AS they passed Thur
low station, the train was thrown from the
track by misplaced rail at one of the
switches. Several of the cars were badly
wrecked; among them the one upon which
Mr.. King was riding. He was thrown
down among and covered up with the
wrecked matter. When removed it was
discovered that he had received serious
iniuries-one leg being broken, one foot
terribly crushed, several ribs broken ard
his head badly cut. He was removed to
his home in Philadelphia.

A Suggestion.

MR.. EDIToR:-I suggest that most ex-
cellent way to celebrate the Centennial
Fourth would be for every person who
owes a small bill to pay the same to-day or
on Monday next. This would be more
patriotic. and far more pleasing in the eyes
of the Giver of All Good, than burning
powder and talking spread eagle. Let us
celebrate this Fourth clear of small debts.
Practical.

RowDYIsM RAMPANT-A MINISTER In
SUITED BY A DRUNKEN MoB.-The neigh
borhood of the Howard House was the
scene of disgraceful breach of decency,
on Thursday night last. A crowd of boys,
who ought to have been in their beds at
that hour, Oh o'clock P. NJ were firing
crackers. The Rev. Mr. Skinner, who
boards at this house, being annoyed by
the noise, in a polite manner requested
them to desst, telling them that there was
a number of lady boarders in the house
who were deprived of their rest by the
noise. The protest of Mr.. Skinner against
their rowdy ism was the signal for an assault
which for indecency and an entire absence
of any quality pertaining to gentility has
never been surpassed in our town. A num-
Der of men, or at least persons who by
virtue Of age claim to be men, armed them
selves with explosives of almost every char
acter, and fired them Immediately beneath
his window. We endeavored to ascertain
the names of the parties engaged in this
vile business, and had we been successful
would have given them to the public. We
have been unsuccessful, however, up to
this time. But we will use our utmost
endeavor to ferret the matter out and make
it public. Aside from the fact of this
being an insult offered to a gentleman
highly respected and honored in our COM
munity, it is an injury to the hotel. The
Howard House is recognized by all to be
our representative hosterly. Mr.. Falls, the
proprietor, does not permit rowdyism or
drunkenness upon his premises. These
rowdies, therefore, coming from grog-
geries, charged with tangle foot whisky,
inflict upon him serious injury. He would
but do his duty by having the entire gang
arrested and made to feel the hand of the
law. Have we town officers? If yes,
where were they upon this occasion?

1t Is pretty well understood that the
contest for the Republican nomination
will simmer down to CANT and MORTON.
Gen. GRANT can secure the nomination
if he wants it, and his desire will depend
entirely upon what conclusion he reaches
as to the probability of his election after
ne is nominated. If he concludes that
public sentiment will not sustain him in
his third term aspirations, he will then
support MoRToN against BLAINE.
CoNKLING's aspirations and SHERMAN's
nomination of HAYES will amount to
nothing. 1t is simply reduced to GRANT
or MORTON, and so far as the Democrats
are concerned it is matter of but little
consequence which is selected.
On the Democratic side the contest
may be said to be narrowed down to
HENDRICKS and THURMAN, and again it
may be said that it is a matter of no
great consequence TO the Democracy
which is nominated, for either
is good enough both beng sound Demo-
Gratis and men of spotless reputation.
Yet the indications are that the chances
are decidedly in favor of THURMAN. MIR.
HENDRICKS has perhaps more personal
magnetism about him than THURMAN,
yet the latter possesses a dignity and lofti-
ness of character together with his vast
intellectual powers that places him pre-
eminently as the leading man in Ameri-
can politics. Judge THURMAN is a
man Of incorruptble integrity, and
during all OF his pubic life not
suspicion has ever rested upon his fair
name. Something that but few of our
politicians can say While the positions
Of these gentlemen, respectively, on the
finances gives Mr.. HENDRICKS an adj
vantage in the West, it rebounds to
Mr.. TuURMAN's advantage to greater
oxtent in the East Yet as the financial
question is one not likely to be a
disturbing element, no difficulty is to
be apprehended in selecting a
suitable candidate on that score,
RANDOLPH, of New jersey, or ENGLISH,
of Connecticut, will probably go on the
ticket for the Vice-Presidency. THUR
MAN and RANDOLPH or HENDRICKS and
ENGLISH will make ticket that GRANT
or MORTON will find wonderfully hard
to beat

REPEAL OF THE SPECIE REsUnP.
EIOS ACT.

Very considerable attention is being
directed towards the far famed act of the
43d Congress, providing for the resump-
tioa of specie payments in 1879, the
cause of the renewed interest in this
measure arising from the likelihood of
action being taken by the present Con-
gress looking to its repeal.
The prevailing sentiment throughout
the country is undoubtedly in favor of
such repeal, and in the discussion of the
question, advocates for repeal have devel-
oped themselves in most unexpected
quarters. For instance, there is the
Chicago Tribune, which has all along
been a most devoted champion of "hard
money" and has heretofore never ceased
to utter the cries Of Imitation and repudi-
alton" against those Democrats who have
proclaimed against ruinous contraction;
demanded" a volume of currency equal
to and limited by the wants of traie,'
Init at the same time, favored a return to
specie payments "by promoting the in
dnstries of the country and not destroy
ing them" Now, strange TO say, that
journal seems to have changed its base
to considerable extent for it says in
recent article on the specie resumption
act (which ali along it has
virtually and apparently favored),
"The act as it now stands provides for
arbitrary resumption, pure and simple,
ut fixed date, and the absolute retire
ment of the whole volume of Govern
ment currency without either providing
for its reissue or the issue of any curren-
CIV to take its place. This will create
void which cannot fail to be seriously,
perhaps disastrously, felt by the business
classes generally, and with particular
strain by all who have debts to pay
c AS to its effect on the National Banks,
the Tribune comes to this conclusion:
"But when the time comes when the
banks must redeem their notes in gold |
on contracted currency market, and
furnish importers and hoarders all they
need or want, they will rather contract |
than enlarge the volume of their circu-
lating notes, and the enforcement of the
Resumption Act without any further !
preparation or inducement TO the banks
to keep out their notes will amount to
the withdrs wal of nearly the whole vol
ume of currency suddenly. 1t can
scarcely fail to give the business COM
munity shock, and that is what is
dreaded"
But the Tribune is by no means alone
in taking the above position, for more
wonderful to relate yet, the Cincinnati !
Gazette, the leading Republican organ of
the State of Ohio, in its issue day or
two since, discusses thus vigorously:
"Shock" is no name for the conse-
quences of attempting to carry out an act !
which provides that on set day the
