COMM UNlCATED.
PoRT TOWNSEND, Nov. lst.

EDITOR ARGUS f: -- feellng tnat
many in this community have been
misrepresented, yea, even slandered,
and knowing you side with what is
just, it is hoped you will allow me
to clear away few accusations, and
point out a few facts.
The black mailer Of this place has
the audacity to say anything, disre
garding the truth, and in fact it
seems they prefer to ialsify. Every
SINCERE Democrat knows that the
"Press" has done more to weaken
their party on the lower Sound than
could have dozen Republican pa,
pers. The men who are banner
leaders here have been picked out
as the objects OF its spleen. And
now it claims that our UNIVERSAL y re-
spected townsman, DR.. N. ID. Hill, is
trying to sow discord in the Demo.
cratic ranks, who with others had re
mained quiet till compelled to decide
between right and wrong. But,
who are they that we can number
with DR.. Hill--men who have stood
firmly by the Democratic party--mtp
who are respected by Republicans
for their sincerity in principles, and
men who have beer honest, etlcien'
and faithful in discharge of office du-
ties We will can name a few aud
the Doctor can be proud of his asso
cates: Chas. Esenbeis, n. d. Hill.
J. A. Kuhn, F. w. Pettygrove, ID
Z. II, RothschiId, G. ri. HaIler, j. F.
Sheehan, and when alive, our la
mented and highly esteemed citizen,
OF. Gerrish. These are the gentle.
men the "Press" and it's yeIpers have
made war against. And why ? Sim
ply because their moral sense of jus.
tice aud decency wouldn's allow them
to do the bidding Of A. f. Learned.
Jas. Jones, f. James, one armed.
Smith, DR.. Wilson, Rice. PhiIbrick,
and lastly, "My party" "Me anu
Charley. Isn't that a sweet. scented
crowd to claim recognition as Dem
ocrats and to assail such men as first
named ?
The respectable portion of the
Democratic party Of the lower Sound
no doubt are sorry that such de
moralizing faction should claim to be
Democrats. They are a ire-brand
in any community, socially or com.
mercialy. We've evidences of the lat.
ter, and the people of this place are
having their eyes opened to the fact
that of the enterprising citizens who
are endeavorng to build up Port
Townsend, none are found of the
Blanchard -WilIison ilk who are help
ing to advance our general interest: !:
but on the contrary, they are trying
to pull down our best men, those
who HAVE money and are willing to
invest it. All this tro4ble is being
occasioned by parties who are envi
Gus and constitutionally bilious,
but it is hoped that some day they
will be "cured."
P.S.-Mr. Editor, I am sorry to
have included in the batch two un.
fortunate ones Of the penitentiary,
who no doubt have repented ere this,
but by doing this | had hoped to point
out how near the balance we're to the
penitentiary. And l notice ] have
done them another injustice by plac,
ing their names as right and left sup.
port of DR.. Wilson one wishing to
have the custody of school interest;
and for which most humbly beg the
pardon oil Smith and Rice.

How the Japanese are shod.

The Japanese are far ahead of us civ
ilized Americans in the matter of wear
ing comfortable shoes. A traveller among
them says that among the first things
that strikes the traveller in Japan are
the wooden sandals worn by these &c.
600 900 of people. They have separate
compartment for the great toe, and make
a creaking noise on the street. Straw
slippers are also worn, and traveller set
ting out ON a journey will strap supply
of them on his back that he may put on
new pair when the old ones are worn
out. They cost but three farthings a
pair, and leave the foot free to the air,
we never see those deformities of the
foot in Japan which are so frequent in
England. They are never worn IN the
house, being left outside the door. Pas
sing down a street, you see long rows Of
them at the door, old and new, large
and small. 1t is surprising to see how
readily the Japs step out of them, ana
pick them up again with their feet, with
out stopping, when leaving the house.

The Mayor of Clonmel, Ireland, as
Cabby.

The Mayor OF Clonmel, Ireland, as
Cabby.
In Mrs. O'ConnelPs memoir of her
father, Charles Bianconi, we have
glimpse of few of his eccentricities.
So anxious was he to be helpful when
his interference could be of any use, that
while acting as mayor of Clonmel he did
not mind clan1bering ON the top of his
cars to pack the luggage of passengers;
and he would give himself any amount
of trouble to find situations for young
men in whom he had confidence. While
generous in his charities, he was scru-
puIous to parismony when there was a
chance of making a good bargain. This
trait of character, however, is not UNI
common. We have heard related an
anecdote of a wealthy London banker,
who one day saw his coachman taking
home pie of tempting appearance for
dinner. Inquiring the price of the pie,
he learned that it cost half-a-crown.
i" If you please, James, I'll take the bar
gain off your hands; there is half-a-crown
for you, and you can easily get another
pie for yourself" So saying, the banker
secured the pie, which would last him
for dinner for a week Bianconi was
equally as acute in trying to turn the
penny. One day, in Fleet street, just
after he had engaged four-wheeled cab,
my father saw stout gentleman walk
ing very quickly towards him, and who
was evidently in distress at not being
able to find conveyance. The spirit
of Charles Bianconi, car-man, woke up
too strongly to be suddenly quelled. =" :,
have cab, sir" he said. " If you will
give me your fare, | will set you down
where you like" The stout gentleman
was profuse with thanks, and said he
wanted to go to the exchange. When
they were in the cab, he begged to be al
lowed to know to whom he was indebted.
.'My name is Bianconi," said my father.
+" The great Bianconi?" replied the gen.
tleman. "And your name, sir?" re-
piled my father, without half the
politeness of his companion. My name.
sir, is Rothschild" My father in telling
me the story, admitted that he was SO
much overawed by the presence and the
affability of so famous man, that he
had not presence of mind to return the
compliment and say, "The great Roths-
child?" This was by no means singu-
lar instance of my fathers eccentricities
in this way; often at home, in Ireland,
when he was driving his own carriage
along the highroad, he would take in a
traveller who would otherwise have gone
by the car, provided that he paid the
car Chambers Journal.

EHE TWO TRAVELLERS.
BY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT.

THE following exquisite poem, one of the mos
,.autifuI of the many written by Mr.. Bryant

TWAS evening, and before my eyes
There lay landscape gray and dim;
Fields family seen, and twilight skies
And clouds that hid the horison's brim.
| SAVIOR vas it that dreamed o.
waking dream? II cannot say;
Fer every shape as real seemed
A. those that ihect fn5 eye to-day.
through leafless shrubs the cold Wind Kissed;
The aiF vas thick with falling snow;
and onward through the frozen mist,
| saw weary traveller go.
Driven DER that landscape bare and bleak,
Before the whirling gusts OF air,
The snow-fiakes smote his withered cheek,
And gathered on his silver hair.
Yet on he Jared through binding SHOWS,
Anu murmuring to himself he said:
The night is near, the darkness grows,
And higher rise the drifts tread.
Deep, deep each autumn flower they hide;
Each tuft of green they whelm from sight;
And they who journeyed by my side
Are Tort in the surrounding night.
loved them oh, no cords can tell
The love that ter my friends bore;
we parted with the sad farewell
Of those rho part to meet no niore.
" And |, who face the bitter wind,
Aud DER these snowy hillocks creep,
Must end my journey soon and find
frosty couch, frozen Sleep"
A. thus he spoke thrill OF pain
Shot to my deart: clasped my eyes,
And when | opened them again
] started with glad surprise.
'twas evening still, and in the west
flush of growing crimson lag.
I saw the morrow there and blest
That premise of a glorious day.
The waters in The CLASSY sleep,
Shone with the hues that tinged the sky.
And rugged cid and barren steep
Cleaned with a brightness from on high.
4 nd one there was whose Journey lay
= Into the slowly gathering night;
With steady steh he Field his way,
Ger shadoRy vale and cleaning height;
marked his firm though weary tread,
The lifted eye and brow serene,
Aud no shade of doubt or dread
Pass Ger that travellers placid mien.
And others came their Journey DER;
And babe good night with words of cheer;
"TO-morrow we shall meet once more
iris bit She night that parts us here"
And |, )" he said, "shall sleep ere LONG
These fading CLEANS will soon be gone
Shall sleep, To rise, refreshed and strong,
In the bright day that yet will dawn"

OF evening from the ornament
Hal passed, and he was lost to sight

The human system is liable to become dsordered
from the insufficient efforts of the liver to discharge
the exce.s of bile. If nature is not assisted in her
efforts severe bilious attacks prostrating fevers

death. A little timely precaution, however. will
prevent all this and may be found in that fagorite

tillage with the application of plaster
and clover stocking, runs it out, and at
the present it is rare to see it in the most
minute quantities.
A WRITER in the Southern Farmer says
that his cow gives all the milk that is
wanted in family of eight, and that
from it. after taking all that is required
for other purposes, two hundred and
sixty pounds of butter were made this
year. This is in part his treatment of
the cow. eff you desire to get large
yield of rich milk, give your cow every
day water slightly warm and slightly
salted, in which bran has been stirred at
the rate of one quart to two gallons of
water. You will find, if you have not
tried this daily practice, that your COW
will give twenty-five per cent more
milk Immediately under the effects of
it, and she will become so attached to
the diet as to refuse to drink clear water
unless very thirsty. But this mess she
will drink almost any time, and ask for
more. The amount of this drink neces-
sary is an ordinary water-pailful at a
time, morning, noon and night"
