A Handsome Income For An

A
 ENERGETIC LADY OR GENTLEMAN.
 The Ohio Scale Works of Cincinnati have just completed and are now introducing to the public Handsomely finished Family Scale, an article that has always been needed in every household, and in communication addressed to the publishers of this paper the proprietors ask to refer them to some reliable party, to introduce it for them to the people of this County It IS very seldom that new article steps so suddenly into universal favor. House. keepers are loud in it's praise, it is always ready, there are no weights to get lost or to be hunted up, is reliable, and will not get out of order. The description of them is handsome base surmounted by column in which works a spiral spring so scientifically adjusted to weigh anything up to twelve pounds with per feet accuracy, on the top of the column is the platform on which the articles to be weighed are placed, and they have adjustable indi- cater so that you can take the tare of any yes sel you may use in weighing, giving you the exact net weight. Housekeepers at once see their value in weighing fruits, sugars and oth- CT ingredients used in preserving, cooking, etc or in testing the weights of purchases from | others.
 l The Scales are made of all Brass are highly polished and are finished in skilful manner
 They are very attractive and take the eye of
 every one who sees them.
 I It seems to us that nearly every family in
 this county will want one, and is certainly a rare opportunity for some smart and energetic
 party to pick up quite nice little income dur ing tho next few months. The Company has agents in other counties who are easily mak- ,, ing from $50 to S60O per day $, Hing them and we would recommend parties in need ot employment to drop the OHIO SCALE WORKS , No. 125 and 127 Central Avenue, Cincinnati.

The Maine Trouble.

The Governor and Council of Maine have
changed the result Of the late election in that
State upon certain technical grounds in rela-
ton to the returns. 1t is not denied that the
people of Maine cast their votes in such a
way as to make the legislature republican in
both branches, and this they did after brisk
and thorough campaign, which brought the
questions involved home to every voter. The
Governor and Council. taking advantage of
their position and power over the returns,
have so manipulated them as to reverse the
will Of the people. This is the real point, as
it will be considered and judged in the pub
lie mind Surprising that the technical
grounds are legally correct-of which there
are grave doubts that we need not discuss
this by no means weakens the appeal to the
tribunal of last resort in a republic. Local
officers may have been culpably negligent,
but the essential question Isl What did the
people say by their rotesf 1t is well known
what they said, and a change of their verdict,

The People Waking Up.

MANCHESTER, Me, Dec 10, 1879.
To the Editor of the Journal:
The people are thoroughly aroused to the
situation. Everywhere the tOcsin of alarm
has been sounded, and its notes have resound-
ed over the hills of Maine with no uncertain
sound. Never before for many year has such
fever of excitement been stirred up among
proposed revolutionary plan of capturing the
government of State noted as being one of
the most orderly and pacific in the Union. 1t
in everybody's mouth. 1t is the terror of con-
versations among all loyal citizens. What !!
our State government which heretofore has
been a very paragon of peace and sobriety, to
be subject to the Vaccinations of such a band
of intriquers as are now connecting a
subtle scheme for the possession of the Legis-
lature, and also necessarily of the Governor
ship and its attendant Offices! Is it possible
that our Governor, in conjunction with his
immaculate Council, is about to adopt the
Southern plan, manipulate the election re-
turns so as to unseat many of the squarely and
fairly elected republican Representatives, and
in their places insert minions of the green
back fanaticism? 1t must be. it cannot be
otherwise than that our distinguished Gov
ernor was lured on during his recent tour in
the South by the whisperings of a Bob Toombs,
a Ben Hill, or some other willy Southron.

democracy may trample upon the poor and

The Great Infamy.

The semi-ofiicial announcements from
Augusta show that the great infamy of re-
versing the peoples will has been perpe-
trated in defiance of Constitution. Laws,
and public integrity. At the hands of
Pillsbury, Garcelon, Foster, ct ais, the
State of Maine has received a disgrace
never before borne by New England
community! The fraud has been COM
mitted in bold, high-handed contempt of
public opinion and official duty, and the
people OF this abiding State are called
upon to-day to confront the most villain
GUS usurpation ever attempted north of
Mason and Dixon's Line!
The public remember that only a few
weeks ago Governor Garcelon and Coun-
cillor Foster were protesting indignant in
nocence Of all knowledge of any design to
change the result Of the election. and both
Of those virtuous statesmen vigorously de-
nounced - slanderers those who were

now been contaminated. These hyProcrit-

because certain officers neglected to sign the
returns, or the returns were sent in one day
late, or certain names were Jumped as ''scat-
tering," is grave offence which the law may
not be able to reach, but which makes the
best ground of appeal to the people.
We can afford to denounce such proceed
ings because we have denounced with equal
severity similar proceedings in other States.
And, carefully considering what we say about
it, we unhesitatingly declare that the Govern
or and Council of Maine, in doing this, have
far exceeded the nfamy of the Louisiana re-
turning board, inasmuch as they were not so
strongly tempted to commit an outrage against
the rights of the people.
We can scarcely conceive that the Governor
AID Council of Maine have done this thing of
their own accord. We fear that they have
listened to very bad advice, and that their
advisers are looking forward to the presden-
tial election. We believe, however, that the
result will be exactly the reverse of what is
intended, and that it will help to make a solid
North next year. The height of democratic
wisdom seems to be to follow the worst prec-
edents of their opponents, and improve upon
them, thereby losing the assistance of public
sympathy

"Frightening nvalids.

The popular impression, strengthened by
some scientific opinions, that consumption
cannot be cured, has no doubt hastened the
death of many invalids, by depriving them Of
the consolation of hope. Persons afflicted with
pectoral disease should be supported by every
assurance of cure, not alarmed by the
gloomy, foreboding countenances Of those
around. For our part, we do not believe that
consumption is incurable, and let physicians
theorize as they will, we have a mass of evil
dence to prove that persons having all the
symptoms Of consumption, cough, deep,
bloody expectoration, pain and oppression,
sore throat, diarrhea, night sweats, burning
fever. &C., have been permanently cured by
"Dr. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild
Cherry" This old standard remedy pre-

phia. Price 20 cents and 81, or six bottles

| ical pretences of honesty render the out
rage so deliberately planned all the more
infamous.
We are now coolly informed by the
mouth-pieces of those assembling con-
spirators that Senate to which the people
elected 10 republicans and ~ fusionists
is to be more than reversed by the issuing
of certificates to 20 fusonists and 4 L re-
| pubicansl We are also insolently told
that in the Honse to which the people
elected 90 republicans and 81 fusionists.
certificates are to be given to some ~
fusionists and 62 republicans, while IL
others are to be thrown out to leave va
cancies !
With this monstrous fraud the
conspirators propose to sieze the State
Government OF Maine by electing Flu
sionist Governor, Council and State officers
thus controlling the count of votes next
year, and by repetition of the present
counting OUT to hold the State until
1888 under the biennial provision. In the
meantime they propose to gerrymander
the State by restricting; to steal the Elec-
toral votes in 1880; to count in five Fusion
Congressman next year; and to pack the
Legislature of 1881 to make the arch
scoundrel Pillsbury, U. S. Senator!
In the above programme the people of
Maine get but an outline of the villainy in
volved in the usurpation of Pillsbury,
Garcelon, Foster & Co. Their scheme is
the destruction of constitutional govern
ment, and the enthroning of fraud over a
disfranchised State. The intelligence,
manhood and patriotism which flung off
the yoke of foreign tyrant in 1776, and
which rallied tens of thousands of Names
best and bravest to maintain the principles
of Constitutional Government in 1868,
will certainly find some way in this crit
cal hour to shake off the grip which con-
spirators have fastened upon the throat of
our commonwealth!
