You are told that government guarantees or
order prevailed before the 10th Of NAV, that il
has not since ceased to prevail, despite much pro-
vocation. and will repeat with the late M. Theirs
that only fomentors of discord are those men

Electors, you will vote for the 800, and You win
everywhere protest against the official cand idates
which insult to your liberty, to the dignity
of universal suffrage, and to sovereignty Of ma.

push our victory beyond reasonable bounds, but
the triumph of law and right is certain.

The Supreme Judicial Court for Kennebec
county begins its October Term at the court house
tomorrow morning at ten O'clock with Hon. Ar
teuas Libbey as presiding judge. The number
of actions upon the docket is eleven hundred and
cighty-two, ard the session must necessarily be
long and laborious. The term last year was ex-
tended till January 10Th, but it is thought there
were more important trials then than there will be
at the present time. There will happen the usual
interruptions of Thsnksg wing and Christmas days,
but with promptness in entering upon the work
and diligence in keeping the wheels in notion
the docket may be pretty well cleared by the end
of December. Judge Libbey sits in Washington
county on the first Tuesday of January.
How to rid rosebushes of worms and other in

correspondent furnishes us the following d.
rections, which if followed, will fix them every
time (rosebushes and insects). Cut off the bush
two anu one half inches above the earth; put the
bush thus cut off into quick hot fire, and every
worm will die of burnup Pull up the roots OF
the bush, tie them together, and then put them
into a pot, and boil them about the time it takes
TO cook old shoes that will completely destroy
all worms in said roots Then take the pot, carry it
down cellar, turn it bottom up, and stop up the
hole in the bottom of the pot. OF course if any
remain in the pot, they will either starve or
another.
