ROME Oct. /.

This morning the Captain Francesca
printed a telegram from Genoa stat
ing that the representatives of the
Thousand of Marsha and of the sur
vivors from tho country's battles had
started last night for Caprera on
board the tugboat Forte, in which
Garibaldi, according to the arrange
ments made, was to embark tor
Genoa.
This news l am able to confirm,
and [ can add further that Garibaldi,
Notwithstanding the urgent advice of
his best friends, is determined to car
ry out his intention. He will proba-
bly, leave Caprera tomorrow at noon,
and arrive at Genoa some time on
Sunday. What will follow then I
cannot predict, but the situation is
rife with the most serious possibilities.
That Garibaldi will be received on
landing by the Extreme Radicals of
Genoa in all their strength there can
be no doubt, and should he, as some
think likely, go at their head to the
Prefecture or the prison and demand
General Canzio's release, we shall in
all probability have the affair of As
promonte over again, for, unless / am
much mistaken, Signor Carroll; bitter
as it may be to him to act vigorously
against his old leader, will faithfully
do his duty as he has always done,
and cause the laws and the institu-
tons of tho country to be respected.
Tho facts are briefly these. For
the part taken by him in disturbances
which arose at Genoa last year Sig
o Canzio, who, it appears, though
holding Generals rank in tho Carl
baldian participation in the Franco
Prussian war, is only a major in the
Italian service, was brought to trial
and condemned to three months i'm
prisonmont. That condemnation was
confirmed by the Court Of Appeal,
and on the 18th of last month he
was arrested to undergo the punish
mont inficted-"iust", saysthe Liberia,
"as you or l might have been had
we broken the law" But Signor
Canzio is Garibaldi's son-in-law.
That the lackeys of the Court, as
Garibaldi has styled Carroll and his
colleagues, should dare to permit the
judicial authorities free action against
such a parsonage is, by the Radicals.
thought a crime, and the General
feels called upon to resent the indig-
nifty. "Lucius Junius Brutus, that
model Republican," says n Of the
Opposition papers, "himself condemn
ed his son to death as guilty of act
ing against the security Of the State,
nor would he grant him pardon.
We cannot understand how it is that
the Radicals of to-day, far from imi-
tating so splendid an example, claim
privileges and immunities for them
Selves Another Opposition paper
writes :-"Indulgence towards Signor
Canzio would, in the circumstances,
have been a crime towards the nation;
but Signor Carroll has done his duty,
his whole duty, and nothing but his
duty"

Der we clip the following:
ave learn this morning from one Of
our Merchants that he and other gen.
tlemen of this Town are pursuing the
necessary inquiries with a view to
establish a local Company for the as
surance of property against risk by
Fire, an object earnestly to be prayed
for as the only hope of checking the
propensity of a certain class of scoun-
drels to fire their properties in order
70 recover an excessive valuation.
Other cogent reasons come quickly
to the comprehension of people of
means-the profitableness of similar
companies in Jamaica, Demerara and
elsewhere, though working on premi-
ums far below those previously exact
ed by foreign companies; and to peo-
pie of property, the great savingin such
premiums by the institute on Of a local
Co., as evidenced in other colonies
and notably in Barbados, where no
sooner was ii announced that a Bar
bados Fire Insurance Co. was being
formed than the Agents of London
and other Cos. were telegraphed to
reduce premiums by one half. Elk
listing premiums are oppressive in this
Island, but when present risks are
considered, it is not easy to show
they are too high. Companies, no
nor than individuals, will do bust
ness at a loss longer than they can
help, and the risk of loss is great in a
town built principally of wood and
with numerous wood ~outgrowths in
gallery, kitchen, stable &c. even
when the walls of the main building
are, as in the lower streets, of stone
Or brick. Add to this, the warm eli
mate, keeping this woodwork general
ly in a dry and infammable condi-
ton. To all this, add the almost
universal use of petroleum, and last
of all the moral poison with which
this Holy Island is infected, the
blight of Incendiarism which cndan-
gers the whole Town and saps with
its corrupted and atrocious ego the
entire moral fabric. Instead of act
ing together to check the last and
worst evil, the Agencies grant policies
loosely, lest the premium pass to a
neighbour. A local Fire Insurance
Co. is at once an association for the
repression of this fre-orime, so far at
least as it affects property insured by
itself; and the Agencies of outside
Co.'S will need to be more select after
it is established, for rogues and bad
risks will fly to them for protection,
and they will have the pleasure of
paying losses (query-rich gains to
the recipient, On a property insured
at double it's value) on premiums
half or below half those paid now.
The whole insuring community has
suffered heavily foryears, for the acts
Of a few daring and t~oo-successful
r~ascals and the non-insurers also
many of whom, of the smaller in
comes, would insure were the premi-
ums moderate, but at present feel
compelled to run the anxious risk of
accident and vilIainy."

AS OTHERS SEE US.

The following, taken from the Co
dticOok Observer best illustrates the
reputation some partisan papers have
Of villifying and singing mud at
candidates nominated for Office
1.-THE nomination of General Garfield
for president of the United States is
looked upon as ga new attestation of
the political value of moral qualities; )"
and the Republican party, it isintimat-
ed, has pessed by the eminent soldier
the eminent financiar and the eminent
party politician to take up man who
is chiefly eminent for the Christian
purity and integrity of his life and
character. They are without reproach
and above suspicion, though, of course,
not above SANDER; for the morning
after the nomination, the opposition
began its campaign of calumny. If
Moses were nominated for the Presi-
dency there are papers which would
bring up the charge that he murdered
an Egyptian and ran off with the
Egyptian womens jew elry."

THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEES.

Colonel Roswell Farnham of Brad
ford, the Republican nominee for gov
ernor, was born in Boston, Mass, in
1927. When he was boy of -, his ia
ther removed from Massachusetts, to
Bradford. Young Farnham fitted for
college at Bradford academy, entered
the University Of Vermont in the jun
ior class and graduated with honor in
1S49. After two or three years spent
as a teacher in Canada and Franklin,
Mr.. Farnham selected the law as his
profession, was admitted to the bar of
Orange county and soon attracted no.
tice as a capable and promising lawyer.
lie was states attorney of Orange coun-
ty for three years, from 1859 to 1861.
On the outbreak of the war he went
out as lieutenant of company d of the
First Vermont regiment Of three months
men. lie returned with the regiment,
only, like so many of its members, to
re-enter the service, which he did as
ieutenant-colonel of the Twelfth regi-
ment serving its time out. He vas in
the senate in 1869, and was an indus
trious and influential senator. In 1876
he was delegate to the Republican
national convention at Cincinnati, and
was one of the Presidential electors in
the same year. General John Lester
Barstow, the nominee for lieutenant
governor, was born in 1892 the son of
a prosperous and respected farmer, in
Shelburn, in Chittenden county. He
entered public life as assistant clerk of
the Vermont house of representatives
in 1861 In 1862 he enlisted in the
Eight Vermont regiment, Colonel
Stephen Thomas, was at once promoted
to the adjutanoy of the regiment, then
was made captain of Company X, and
then promoted to be major. His mill
tary record was especially creditable
lie represented Shelburn in the legisla-
lures of 1SG4-65, rendering able service
as chairman of the military committee.
In 1856 he was elected to the senate
and reelected in 81, holding the chair
manship of the general committee and
serving on important special commit
tees. He was subsequently United States
pension agent for nine years, disbursing
large sums with absolute integrity and
scrupulous care. As a practical farm
err, he we'll represents the great agricul-
tural interests of our State. His we'll
earned reputation, sterling character
and wide popularity practically as
sured his nomination from the day his
name was suggested, and it became
known that he would accept the office
if rendered, though he lifted no finger,
wrote no line, and said no word to in
fluence the choice. Treasurer John A,
Page is too old and we'll known pub
lie servant to need a biography. He
has been the trusty and able guardian
and disburser of the State funds since
1866, and the State has had no more
faithful servant. We are glad that his
services are to be retained two years
more. The ticket, 1t is needless to say,
is very strong one. 1t will command
the heartiest support of the Republic
ans OF Vermont, and the respect of our
opponents; and, under the tried and
true standard bearers, thus heartily
and tremendously nominated, Yer

MY son, POST YOURSELF.

My son, you may not be able to lay
up treasures in heaven by reading
Democratic papers just now, but you
should seek knowledge wherever it
may be found. You have heard how
all the prominent Republican states
men became corrupt and how the
great Democratic statesmen became
heavenly saints but there is much
more you should know before you are
any older. Did you know that Gen.
Garfield tried to scuttle Noah's ark the
time of the excursion to Mount Ararat:
Have you seen the GRAND Rapids Dem
ocrat lately? Did you know that Gen.
Chester A. Arthur of New York was
the man that met Christopher Column
bus at the dock in 1892 and tried his
best to prevent America from being dis.
covered? Do you remember how Chris
told Arthur to go west, and how the
Democrats saved the country in 1861!
Did you know that George Washington

not been for Gen. Garfeld's influence

These and like subjects together
with a full and fair discussion and

campaign into which we are Just en-

conducted with low and personal
vulgarities, what ever may be the re-
suit, the Republic will emerge from
it filed with bitterness, discomfort
and disgust. It on the other hand
it shall be conducted upon high and
manly grounds, which ever party
may prevail, all men will feel that
the good of the country has not been
lost sight of, and that earnest strife,
and radical differences of opinion as
to what is required, may still exist
and be commended for in honor, fair
ness and courtesy; and all will pro-
coed with a hope and confidence SO
essential to the prosperity and happi-
ness of the land.

A Public Duty.

We are not in the habit of putting
any sort of patent medicines in our col
umns, for the business Of a newspaper
is to let people know what is going on
in the world, and to lend aid to what
may be an imposition. But we happen
to know DR.. David Kennedy of Ron
dout, N. Y, and can personally testify
to the excellence of the medicine which
the doctor calls "Favorite Remedy"
And if a word of ours will persuad any
body to use it, and thus find relief from
suffering no professional etiquette shall
hinder us from saying that word. For
diseases of the blood, kidneys and bow
els it has no equal. We would not be
without it for FIVE times the dollar that
it COSTS Daily Times.

From the present outlook we have
the prospect Of an opportunity for
the country to present to the world
for once, dignifed campaign.
Many opportunities to mud singers
which they had fondly hoped for
have been lost in the results Of both
conventions. The billingsgate ele-
ment in both parties were anxious
and expectant, but they wake up to
find their occupation gone. In
Grant, our opponents expected a tar
get that would furnish rare sport;
they expected to stir up the people
with the cry Of bold, brave man, dis
.tinguiShed general, but Caesar was
ambitious" With Blaine they ex-
pected to glory in many vile ISLANDERS
which an energetic, active life al
ways engender. But when Gen.
Garfield SO suddenly sprang into
their midst they were silent with as
constituent and chagrin. SO too on
the other hand, many who loved a
discussion of personalities above that
of principles were looking to the no.
.mination of Tilden and had their
little snowballs bedaubed ready to
pelt him. But in the face Of the
great statesman Garfield, military
man, almost unknown to legislation,
but having an army record equal
with his opponent, and personal
character on a par with it, rode into
the ring. And thus were the baser
elements Of both parties sadly dis
appointed. Well may the good men
of both parties join in congratula-
tons upon this, if upon nothing else.
Nothing now remains but to pro-
duce before the world a high toned
campaign that shall do something
towards wiping out the reproach
that has been upon us in the eyes of
the world, growing out of our pre-
rious campaigns.
Many things about the history Of
the candidates are legitimate sub
jects of discussion. The position
which any candidate has taken in
reference to any subject, is proper
to be explained and discussed. If
General Hancock believes in State
rights according to the theory Of
the South, and in accordance with
that theory which has once deluged
our land in blood, the people should
be frankly and earnestly warned Of
it. If Gen. Garfield has always beer
acting in entire accord with that
theory which recognizes an allegi
ance to State governments as such
and separate allegiance to the Fed
eral government entirely consistent
and harmonious with State allegiance
and which has rescued the govern
ment from destruction; as we value
the perpetuity and happiness Of the
government, he ought to be earnest
" indicated. If Gen. Arthur hat
been removed from Office for JUS
cause it ought to be shown to the
people. If he has been not only
completely cxonerated by a thor
ough investigation, but shown to bt
a man of rare capacity, integrity anC
enterprise, the coaa@y should have
the full benefit of that by discussion
