As the great Presidential campaign of 1880
approaches-a campaign which is to decide
the political destiny of the Republic for dec
ades, if not for centuries, to come, sense of
the importance of the struggle begins to i'm
press itself upon the minds of all patriotic
citizens. The menacing dangers to popular
govern ment and the rights of humanity, which
have been vividly brought to notice by the
present ascendency of the Confedero Demo
cratic party in the legislative branch of the
government, have .admonished Republicans of
the supreme necessity of preventing the con-
summation of the gigantic conspiracy against
Liberty, which aims at untrammeled control
thereby aroused, which is destined to make
next years struggle for the Presidency the
most eventful, the most memorable, perhaps
the most bitter on record. During that COM
ing struggle -,

RocKLANp, September 4. About eight
o'clock this morning, a man was found on
Farwelrs wharf, weltering in his blood, with
a terrible wound in the left side of his abdo-
men, from which the lntestines protruded,
and also slight wound in his throat, while
by his side lay a razor with which the deed
was committed. The man was still alive,
and the city marshal being notified, he was
removed to the police station, physician
was summoned. and his wounds dressed. He
soon sank however, and died about halt.past
nine. He was able to converse little before
death, and said, in answer to questions, that
he committed the deed himself, having lost
his money, and being discouraged. The vic
tim of this gasty suicide was Daniel McWil-
liams, a stone cutter, about 60 years of age,
unmarried, having brother and other rel
ativcs at Wentworth, Nova Scotia had been
employed at the Spruce Head Granite Works,
and said to have come to this city about

which is supposed TO have been spent in
spreeing. No money was found on his per-
son.

PROSPECT GROVE, VAUDEVILLE, Sept. D.
This morning the face of Nature suggests
the following lines:
"The day is cold and dark and dreary,
1t rains, and the wind is never weary"
Everything is wet and uncomfortable.
These unfav orable circumstances do not seem
to dampen the ardor of the Jewellers in tents"
although fears are expressed that the rain
may prevent some from coming to the meet
ing.
The social meeting in the pavilion was an
interesting occasion. Mrs. White made APP
propriate remarks concerning the individual
responsibilities of those present, and the ne
cessty of opening the avenues of the heart to
the influences of Gods Spirit. The words
spoken had the desired effect, and many stir
ring testimonies were given in quick success
sion.
As the people wended their way from the
pavilion, they were rejoced to see the light
of the sun. The clouds rolled up from the
horizon in white downy masses, and gave
promise of pleasant weather
The forenoon service was held in the grove.
The singing was spirited and good. feel
ing prayer was offered by Elder Goodrich,
and an interesting discourse upon the subject
of fruit bearing" delivered by Elder Butler.

of Christianity were illustrated, and the last

The example of Christ was held up as per-

Closing Republican Rally In HalIOvelI.-
TOreh-Light Procession, lllurninatiOns,
Fireworks, and Speeches by Messrs.
nf ns1n

Herbert NJ Heath and Orvil1e ID. Baker
OF Augusta.
The republican demonstration in this city,
on Saturday evening last, was Il fitting close
for one of the most important and warmly
contested political campaigns ever held in
this state. At about half past six o'clock,
the president of the republican club, Mr.. ID.
X. Jewell escorted the band from his resi-
dence, on Middle street, to City Hall, where
the procession was to be formed. Following
the band was a large delegation of stalwart
republicans, in teams, from the granite quar-
ries, with banners, transparencies and mottos,
attracting much attention. Under the direc-
ton of the chief marshal Capt. j. :. Snow.
the procession was formed in front of City
Hall, the right resting on Academy street.
When in line, with torches brightly flashing,
and with flags and transparencics in position,
the pageant was one of great brillian1v, eX-
citing much attention and enthusiasm
throughout the line of march, which was an
extended one, occupying just one hour before
arriving in front of the Baptist church, where
platform. brilliantly decorated, had been
prepared for the speakers. All along the
line of march all the stores and residences of
republicans were illuminated with gas lights
Chinese lanterns, wax candles and Transparent
ces, and as the column proceeded along the
route, fireworks at various points added
greatly to the gorgeous spectacle. We did
intend to give a complete list Of those who
illuminated their stores or dwellings on this
occasion. but space would fail in an attempt
to do justice to the subject The West Wa
tervile band furnished the music for the
occasion.
On arriving at the stand, there was scarce
" room in the entire square for the process
sion to find standing room. Mr.. Jtwett in
troduced the first speaker, Herbert NJ.
Heath, Esq. of Augusta, who for nearly an
hour discussed the issues to be decided on
Monday next, in an able and most interesting
manner. He was followed by Orville ID.
Baker, Esq, in an able and scholarly address,
which was received with much satisfaction.
At the close of Mr.. Bakers remarks, three
hearty cheers were given for Daniel +.
Davis.
