1t is rather surprising, after all the march,
ing and countermarching, the protests Of can
didates and their attorneys, and the threats
and actual initiation of legal proceedings, to
hear that the Governor and Council have
never refused to exhibit the election ryturns
to parties in interest, on reasonable and
timely application. This, however, appears
to be the fact. The Governor and Council have
objected. They have alleged pre-occupation.
But they have not positively refused TO show
the returns, and yesterday, it appears, they
did exhibit the Vassalboro returns to the
Rev. DIR. Butler, the republican candidate,
and furthermore assured him that in their
Judgment he appeared to be elected.--Poyt-
land Advertiser.
The Advertiser is entirely mistaken.
Many have applied but no republican has
to this day been permitted to see and in
spect the returns. All reports which
credit the Governor and Council with hav-
ing shown or intending to show the re-
turns to republicans are erroneous.

DR.. Kalloch, Mayor-elect of San Francisco,
has called upon the Commissioners of Police
to revoke a special license whereby Charles
DE Young, who recently attacked him, is per-
mitted to carry arms. He asserts that Mr..
De Young has threatened to renew the as
sault. He says: 81 am not afraid of Charles
De Young. nor of any other man, and if this
community is to be RENTED to semi-barbar-
ism, and governed by force, can take my
part. But am a peaceable American citizen
residing in large city which is supposed to
be protected by its police and by the courts
| am about to occupy high municipal posi-
ton, in which my life should exemplify the
highest conceptions of civilized society, and
| prefer, therefore, not to be compelled to
carry arms for my defence" The ordinance
under which the license was granted reads /:
''The Police Commissioners may grant writ
ten permission to any peaceable person, whose
profession or occupation may require him to
be out at late hours of the night, to carry con-
cealed deadly weapons for his own protec-
ton" DR.. Kalloch afiirms that If Dennis
Kearney is refused permission to carry pis-
tol, Mr.. DE Young should be compelled to
90 unarmed also.

Few scaffold speeches, says the Tribune,
have been more honest and effective than that
of the negro boy who was hanged in Mary
land Friday. Don't none of you ever take
this pattern. Keep out of it'' There was
no mawkish scntimcntality here, and the lit
tie speech is all the more pathetic because of
its rough grammar. Last words have been
spoken on the scafiold and in far pore reput-
able death scenes, that were less sincere and
less useful.
There is a sect in Russia called the Chlys-
ty. who bid fair to rival the American Adven-
lists in their zeal and taste for human sacri-
fees. A certain woman named Prascovia
Keshemkoff has become leader among
them, and like the poor fanatic in Massachu-
sets who offered up his child the other day,
was convinced that Christ called for victim
in order to raise him up again. She ordered
her followers to seize woman who was pas
sing and to murder her, which they did.
Prascovia drove her cart over the body two or
three times, and then proceeded to bring it to
life; failing in which she was banished to ST.
IBERIA for eighteen years.

The popular impression, strengthened by
some scientific opinions, that consumption
cannot be cured, has no doubt fastened the
death of many invalids, by depriving them Of
the consolation of hope. Persons affected 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 q mass of evil
dence to prove that persons having all the
symptoms Of consumption, cough, deep,
bloody expectoration, pain and oppression,
sore throat, diarrh9a, night sweats, burning
fever, &C., have been permanently cured by
