THE SAFETY LAMP.

When the miner carried his lamp with its unpro.
tected flame into the earth dark recesses, scarcely
rible destruction Of human life being recounted BY
the press. Every morning the miner lett his wife
and little ones, with the heart rendng consciousness
with his companions might be taken from the pit u
blackened unrecognizable corpse. When Davy gave
TO these miners the safety amptha: triumph of ap-
piled science-wih its fine wire gauze, eifectually
protecting the fame from the nfamable gases think
you not they deeply grateful to their benefactor
Not less gratitude does the physician receive who
provides for his fellow an efectual means for
protecting his system from disease. Every physician
knows that the human system may be rendered al
most invulnernable to disease. A strong constitu-
tion supplemented by pure blood and healthfu
tions form protection to the system which disease
can seldom penetrate. To cleanse and strengthen
the system. remove its Impurities, and impart to It
healthfu vigorous tone, use DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Purgative Pellets and Golden Medical Discovery ad-

The Portland Transcript. which is not a
political paper, makes the following re-
marks upon the reform Legislature:
at is rather damaging to the reputation of
the legislature as body of reformers that
while eager 10 cut down the salaries of public
oflcers they held ON to their own unconstitu-
tional perquiste of double mileage. This
neglect of duty caused the session to come to
- most lame and mpotent conclusion" and
places in ludicrous light the scrupulosity of
members concerning jack-knives. Gov Gar
celOn turns out to be more of reformer than
the members bargained for"

The Caucus Tonight.

The republicans of Augusta should not
fail to attend the caucus at Granite Hall
this evening, to nominate republican can
didate for Mayor. 1t is desirable that
there be full attendance, so that we may
act with one mind and one spirit at the
polls next Monday. Let all parts of the
city be represented.
The determination is TO have straight
republican candidate--to meet the oppo-
sition face to face under the old republi-
can banner. This has been all along the
sentiment of the most of republicans, and
that feeling was greatly intensified by the
outrage perpetrated by the democratic al
dermen upon Postmaster Hamlen at the
dictation of the Young Mems Democratic
Club. There is virtually but one opinion
among republicans since that outrage was
committed, that is, that straight republi-
can nomination must be made and should
be supported at the polls by every effort
that the republican party can put forth.
A reform in relation to drinking houses
and tippling shops, is most earnestly de-
manded. They have ruled the city gov
ernment the last year; let us have a gov
ernment the coming year that will rule
them and drive them out of existence.
The rum-shops grow under democratic
government; we must overthrow demo-
cratic supremacy in the city and the clos
ing up of the rum-shops will follow.
Let us set in motion tonight move
ment which will take the control of the
city from the hands of the Young Mems
Democratic Club, and place it in hands
that will make the reform which the good
name and the welfare of our city most
urgently require.

Why is the country to be cursed by an
extra session of Congress? There is a sim

Because the democratic politicians insist

eral impression of the members, which they
had derived from n somewhat general con-
sultation, was that il was not advisable to at
tempt 10 hold such convention this year.
while it was at the same time thought best to
aim to bring about general alliance in the
other counties similar TO that which was had
in Waldo, Penobscot and Somerset counties
last year. 1t was thought that by another
year the Importance of the union upon gen
eral ticket would be more clearly seen and
more easily effected.
In the meeting of the greenback commit
tee the views expressed were quite diverse.
While il was argued that union of all the
opposition upon single presidential ticket,
next year in opposition to that of tho repub-
licans, would be vitally necessary and that
the union must be upon that of the two
opposition parties which would stand the best
chance of winning, the majority opinion
seemed to be that il was unnecessary to take
that question into consideration. 1t was ar
gued the greenback party was fast increasing
by converts from both the old parties, and
that the democratic party would be finally
driven to disband and become absorbed in the
greenback party, as a choice between that al
tentative and allowing the republicans to sue
ceed The proposition TO have an alliance
with the democrats in city and town elections
was advocated by some and opposed by some.
II was finally voted 10 call straight green
back convention in Portland, the fifth of June
to nominate a candidate for governor, and
there seemed to be no doubt of the re-nomi-
nation of Mr.. Smith, the candidate last year.
