Re- Opening a Thoroughfare.

In order to guard against results utterly
subversive of health, it is absolutely es-
sential that the grand thoroughfare or av-
enue OF the system, the bowels, should be
re-opened as speedily as posi-
bic when they become INSTRUCTED. IF they
are not, the bile is misdirected into the
blood; the liver becomes torpid; viscid
bilious matter gets into the stomach, and
produces Indigestion; headaches ensue,
and other symptoms are produced, which
prolongation of the exciting cause only
tends to aggregate. The aperient proper
ties OF Hostetter's Stomach Bitters consti-
tute a most useful agent in overcoming
construction of the bowels, and promoting
a regular habit of body. 1t is infinitely
superior to the drastic cathartics frequent.
~ used for the purpose, since it does not,
Ike them, act violently, but produces a
natural, painless, effect, which does not
impair the tone Of the eyacuatory organs,
which it inyigorates instead Of weaken
ing. The stomach and liver, also, indeed
the entire system, is strengthened and reg
ulated by it,

Scientific Notes.

A new French invention for produc-
ing cold, and one which will no doubt
supercede the use of ice for refrigerating
cars and stores in which perishable sub
stances are being conveyed or kept, is
to condense air by means of steam
engine, and, the heat thus evolved be-
ing removed by stream of cold water,
allow the air to enter the chamber to
be refrigerated and expand again to
atmospheric pressure. The cold thus
produced is intense; and it is not only
easily accomplished, but is an effective
means of ventilation.
Mr.. James Gordon Bennett next pro-
poses to fit out an expedition to the
Arctic regions, of course under Stanley,
and has already petitioned Congress to
grant him an appropriation.
The first telegraph line in the Chinese
Empire has recently been established

1t is common to say that bodies move
through space with incOnceivable rapid
ity; but our knowledge of the actual
motions of the stars has been greatly
extended of late, and it is known that
a velocity exceeding 3Omiles per second
is rare, and it is considered doubtful
whether a proper motion of 40 miles
can anywhere be found. Our sun is
travelling through space at the rate OF
but miles per second.

Bondholders VS.. Soldiers.
ST. JoHNsBURY, Feb. %, 1873.

ST. JoHNsBURY, Feb. %, 1873.
Editor Of CaIedonian
Dear Sir The newspapers of late
have been full of all sorts of arguments
in relation to the currency and the pub
lie credit. Every column almost teens
with phrases about "The good faith of
the nation"-'promised to pay in gold"
-''run a risk when they lent their
money to the government and ought to
receive good pay for it"-etc., etc.
Now, while l think the United States
cannot afford to cheat the bondholder
and that the best and cheapest way, is
the honest way, two questions occur to
my mind which have never seen raised
except by one person, viz. Gen. Horace
Binney Sargent, of Massachusetts:
First, why are government (U. S.
bonds worth anything, or why are they
worth more than Confederate bonds
Second, did not the government prom
Use to pay gold to any one else besides
the bond buyer or holder2
First, it seems clear to me that the
bonds would not have been good for
anything if our soldiers had not been
successful in the field. 1t is evident
that if the rebellion had succeeded, and
the United States had been divided into
two or more separate governments, that
then our bonds would have been repu-
dated, for the one reason if no other,
that we should have been unable to
have paid them. Therefore in justice,
the bondholder owes something to the
soldier.
Second, know that the government
promised to pay its soldiers in gold, or
its equivalent. Not only promised, bnt
actually did pay us once or twice in

The moral and religious community
is interested as never before in the sub
ject of temperance, and the publishers
OF "Ihe Temperance Reform and Its
Great RefOrmers" have shown their
sagacity in bringing out just this book
at just this time. With Francis Murphv
at the East, DR.. Reynolds at the West.
and the Christian Temperance Women
everywhere, this country is experiencing
such temperance revival as must
arouse the attention of all thoughtful
persons who are the friends of morality
and virtue. This large, compact. and
abundantly illustrated work is inst the
book to give its readers a birds-eve
view of the whole temperance move
ment for the past two hundred years in
America. Its portraits of DR.. Beecber.
MIR. Cough, Neil Dow, Father Mathew
Miss Willard, Murphy, Reynolds, and
many more of the leading Temperance
men and women of this country. are
really life-like, and the same NAV he
said of the way in which the author has
described them and their work.
There is temperance law for those
who like it, and temperance gospel
for those who prefer that: The Wash

Moody in his temperance line, and, in
fact, every great movement and every
great mover in it will be found in these

For the Caledonian.
Lent.

The term Lent is a Saxon word, sig
nifying spring, and as now used, indi-
Gates the spring fast preparatory to
Easter, or to the yearly commemoration
of the resurrection of Christ from the
dead. The season of Lent is forty days
but as Sunday is never regarded as a
fast day, being the day of the week on
which our Lord rose from the grave,
the first day of Lent is forty-six days
before Easter.
A fast before Easter has been OBJ
served from the earliest Christian times ;
but the period of its duration in the
early ages varied in different countries.
Forty days seem to have been settled
upon as the length of the fast, as being
the period during which our Lord was
going through His temptation in the
wilderness.
The principal days of Lent are the
first day, or Ash Wednesday, and the
last week, OF Holy Week which COM
memOrates the sufferings of Christ en-
dured for His people during His last
days before the crucifixion The prin-
cipal day of that week is Friday, OF
Good Friday, the day on which He was
crucified.
The object of instituting this fast by
the early disciples of our Lord seems to
have been, first, to perpetuate in the
hearts of every generation of Christians,
the sorrow and mourning which the
Apostles and Disciples felt during the
time that the Bridegroom was taken
away from them. Nothing could erase
from their minds the blank and desola-
ton of those awful hours between the
crucitixiOn and resurrection of Christ.
And secondly, sorrow concerning the
death of Christ, should be accompanied
by sorrow concerning the cause of that
death and hence the Lenten fast was
IL period of self-discipline from its first
institution. 1t seems to have been
observed universally by Christians,
though with great liberty and just
allowance for mems infirmities.

The New Hampshire Result.
A GOOD REPUBLICAN VICTORY.

GOOD REPUBLICAN VICTORY.
The returns from $50 New Hampshire
towns and cities give Gov. b. f. Pres
colt of Epping, republican, % ,342 votes,
and Frank A. Mexican of Nashua, dem
ocrat, 26,660, scattering, 525; last year
the same places gave Prescott 30, 329,
Marcy 5,931, and scattering 300, show
ing republican net loss in these places
of 1890. This leaves 80 towns and cities
to hear from. The returns are not yet
sufficiently full to give definite figures
of the republican victory, but it seems
certain that Prescott is elected gov
ernOr, and that the republicans carry
the House and Senate and council. The
republicans claim that Prescott is elect
ed by 1000, and the democrats cOncede
him from 1000 to 1900 majority. The
republicans claim the House by not less
than so majority, which will probably
not be far from right; they also claim
that they have carried eight out of
twelve senatorial districts. 1t seems
certain that they have carried seven,
though the democrats think that in one
of the districts claimed (No. y there is
no choice. The senatorial districts
claimed are Nos. l, 2, 3, 4, 5, Z, 9 and
10. Of the councillor districts the re-
publicans carry Nos. 1, 3, and prob
ably 2, though the democrats claim that
only later returns can determine the re-
suit in this district. Of the counties the
republicans carry Rockingham, Straf-
ford, Hillsboro, Cheshire and Sullivan,
and the democrats Belknap, Carroll,
Merrimack, Grafton and Coos.
The election passed off quietly over
the state, the republicans suffering con-
sidera bly, on account of the bad weather.
The most interesting representative
contest of the day was at Hanover. OBJ
iectiOns to exhibited States Senator
James w. Patterson caused the bolt of
portion of the republicans, who united
with the democrats for his defeat. Pat
tersOn was declared elected by one ma
jority, but prominent republicans who
counted the votes with the officials
claimed a mistake of one in the first
count, and demanded a recount. This
was refused, and Patterson was declared
elected. The democrats and many re-
publicans are indignant, while Patter-
sons friends are jubilant.
The famous Hayes Endorsement reso-
luton, written by Editor Moore of
Nashua, is as follows:
Resolved, That we recognize the
paramount duty of President Hayes to
render these high and solid professions
(Note-The declarations of the Cincin-
natl platfOrm) actual and living reali-
ties; and, while we admit an honest diff
ference of opinion in respect to his past
acts, we welcome and approve his patri-

Disgraceful Affair at Dartmouth.

HANOVER, N. H., March II. AT
about three o'clock on the morning OF
March IL disturbance occurred in one
of the college buildings, consisting OF
an attack by party of students upon
room occupied by two brother mem
bers, respectively, of the Senior and
Sophomore class. The party is sup
posed to have been composed of mem
bers of the Freshman class, led by a
person who was some time since drop
ped from the college. The door was
forced and the occupants of the room
were assaulted and badly bruised, but
not seriously injured. The disturbance
grew out of slight difficulty about a
hat, and is wholly discountenaneed by
the entire college. Several are already
under arrest, and there is no doubt that
the guilty parties will be discovered
and punished.

Sutnsburg Galedunialr.
Well Done, New Hampshire.

The fact that the Republicans of New
Hampshire have reelected Gov. Pres
colt by from one to two thousand ma
jOrity. and made clean sweep in both
branches of the Legislature, when pit
ted against both the Democracy and
the disaffected Republicans, led by that
political ''boss," VIM. E. Chandler, is
the best evidence we can have that the
people are satisfied that President
Hayes is honest in his effort to carry
out the principles laid down by the men
who made his platform for him at Gin
cinnati.
The weather was bad, and many
things conspired to decrease the Repub-
lican majority but that there was no
greater falling off is the greater won
der. The victory is a rebuke to the
few Republicans who would have been
glad to throw the state into the hands
of the Democrats, just because they are
mad with President Hayes.
