THE WAR.

The news from the seat of war during
the past week has been of more start
ling character than for some time past.
The Russians in Armenia have marched
to the relief of Bayazid, beleagured
town near the frontier, fought the Turks
and liberated the small Russian force
there surrounded. But on the whole,
the Turks IN Asia are still victorious
and are forcing their enemies back to-
ward the mountains, whence they began
their invasion. On the Danube the
Russians have captured the fortified
town and garrison, Nicopolis on the Dan
ube with several thousand troops. This
opens up twenty-five miles more of the
river to them, and affords an opportunity
for building another and better bridge.
The Russians have been very successful
in the attempt to cross the Balkan range
Of mountains, and have pushed from
fifteen to forty thousand across, and into
the heart of the Turkish dominions.
No very heavy battle has been fought,
but it is evident that the Russians have
gained great advantages near the Danube
and the Balkans of late. The rumors of
peace. and of alliances between the pow
ers of Europe continue, but the proba-
bilities are that nothing will be done by
other nations, until after a signal vic.
tory by one of the belligerents.

A SAD DEFALCATION.

Another sad defalcation has recently
come to light in st. Adams, which in
wolves one of the best known and here
tOfOre most respected citizens of that
place. Hon. A. ]. Samson is the party
implicated, and the amount of his de-
falcation is estimated at ten thousand
dollars, although it may reach larger
sum. For many years Judge Samson
held the position of Judge of Probate for
the district of Franklin, but in 1867,
after twelve successive elections, was de-
feated by very small vote by Judge
NJ. w. Bailey, wounded soldier. Since
that time he has been employed in the
settling of many estates. his large expe-
rience in this line admirably fitting him
for such work, while his unquestioned
honor gave all feeling of safety in en-
trusting their affairs to his management.
For several years it has been known by
his friends that injudicious investments
had crippled his resources, but no one
certainly mistrusted that by any posi-
bllity could he have used the funds be-
longing to estates which he was adjudi-
eating to bridge over his personal diff
culties. Yet such seems to have been
the case, and his fall is deplOrable
one. Judge Samson is a regularly or

THE s.P & or COMPLETED.

The Vermont division of the Portland
& Ogdensburg r. r. was completed last
week, and the difficult and arduous task
of building q railroad across the State
has been accomplished, much to the
credit of those engaged in the work, and
to the joy Of that section of the State
traversed by the new road. 1t was no
small triumph of engineering skill to
cross the two difficult divides, one of
which interviewed between the waters of
the Connecticut and Passumpsic, the
other in crossing over from the Passump-
sic to the head waters of the Lamoille.
But the competent engineers overcome
this task much more easily than the
financial agents conquered the difficulties
in their way. Soon after the road was
commenced the great panic came on, and
the almost total destruction Of confidence
in the value of any railroad stocks, made
it almost impossible to raise means by
which to complete the building of this
road. BY persevering efforts the money
has been raised, and the road opened
from the Champlain to the Connecticut
The details in regard to the building Of
this railway are pretty we'll known, but
there are few who realize how hard il
has been in these times to carry forward
an enterprise Of such magnitude. The
thanks Of all interested should be giver
to the few men who have pressed the
enterprise to completion.
In ordinary times the road ought Il
pay we'll, without any considerable reve
nue. from through western traffic, bu
with Portland at the eastern terminus
and the great West behind the road
there seems to be no reason why it will
not be a paying road in the future.
1t will help greatly toward developing
a section Of this State, and will ever b
a great convenience to large class o
travellers and shippers.

BLAINE.

James G.. Blaine, who has taken such
a prominent place in the nation for the
past few years, appears to have suffered
such wound in his feelings, when he
was defeated of a nomination at the
Republican National Convention last
year, that he seeks now, either to iDjure
his victorious rival, or to punish the
Republican party. He had opportunity
to express his views at Fourth of July
speech, and he reflected severely on the
course and doings of the President. In
order to do this he was obliged to resort
to bugbear in regard to a quarrel with
Mexico. which was very round about
way Of getting up opposition to the ad-
ministration. The misfortune of the
affair is in the fact that Mr.. Blaine
fears are Of a purely imaginary charac-
ter. and that he is entirely mistaken
in his expressed opinion, that the admin
istration seeks quarrel with Mexico in
order TO create war, and then in case Of
victory. get as bonus a large slice Of
Mexican territory. His fears are entire
ly unfounded, as the emphatic denial Of
all interested 60 to show.
II may be possible that the cankel
produced by Mr.. Blaine's defeat is SC
working in his nature that he must fnd
some complaint with President Hayes
and he seeks these means.
Senator Blaine was as highly esteemed
in this section for smartness, statesman
ship and ability as any man in the coun
try, and it will be unfortunate for hi
reputation. if he seeks by factiOus Oppo
sitOn or unjust complaints to injure tn
party or the President. There hav
been many conspicuous examples in thi
nation of men who have made politica
suicides Of themselves, by not takin
political defeats with cOmposure an
good grace; it may be that Mr.. Blain
will prove another. With his grea
ability and prestige, he has only to b
have discreetly, to keep his record bri
liant, OF to march on to other victories.

Mr.. Jamason who was induced by A.
A. Earle to start newspaper at Barton
Landing finds the undertaking unremu-
nerative, and in the article quoted below
bids his patrons and the place where
his unfortunate venture was made a
graceful adieu. The whole scheme was
Matched under the parasitic scalp of
Earle who hoped thereby to trade off
his old press and type, or, in case of
failure, to gobble up the few inveigled
subscribers Of the defunct paper, that
he might get one further opportunity to
victimize and punish the citizens of this
county. We think they can see through
the whole scheme. and will not submit
cheerfully to Earles immolation. This
adds one more to the many crazy and I'M
profitable newspaper speculations which
that literary eunuch has started. The
only place where he has ever proved a
success was at Waits6eld, when he won
the championship as the "Great Ameri-
can Press Racer"

THE INDIAN WAR.

Every year there are outbreaks of
greater or less magnitude among the
tribes of Indians in the far West, and
this year has already a bloody record
with the tribe under Chief Joseph, which
occupies a section of country West of
the Rocky mountains, near the point
where Oregon, Washington Territory
and Idaho touch. This country is
sparsely settled by miners, ranchmen
and gold hunters, who have suffered from
the depreciation of the tribe, and have
also, without doubt, given the Indians
as great cause for complaint as they
have received. There were several
murders early in the spring, and troops
were sent up to awe or whip the red
demons into subsection. Several small
engagements were had and the Indians
made desperate fight, killing nearly as
many soldiers, as were slaughtered
among their own warriors. Sometime
since body of troops under Gen. How
ard had small battle and though they
were victOrs, they suffered the loss Of
thirteen men including several officers.
The Indians fought very we'll, and when
overcome made a rapid escape
1t is feared that the war will spread
and that other tribes will join in the
fray until it becomes so formidable al
to call for the strongest efforts on the
part of the army to suppress it.
