New Operation for Hemerrhoids.

(Piles.)
DIR. J. NJ. Blaisdell, of Bangor, Maine, has
performed his new antiseptic operation for
hemorrhoids upon over three hundred pa
tients, all of whom speedily and permanently
recovered. The treatment is simple, painless
and harmless, entirely avoiding the painful.
heroic and dangerous operations of legation,
cutting and cauterization. Patients from a
distance, can have the operation performed,
and return at once to their homes. Its ad-
vantages over all other operations for hem
orrhoids are extreme implicity-freedom
from pain, entire safety. on-confnement to
the bed. and perfect and final cure in every
case. From the many patients treated in the
various sections of the State, the following
well known citizens can be referred to:
VIM. II. Smith, custom house, Portland.
Chas. +. Lyon, wholesale dry goods,
Bangor.
Joab w. Palmer, lumber dealer Bangor.

Mr.. SeIdell was native of Belgium. a

Morrison, who was acquainted with Seidell.
says that he noticed that the man acted rather
queerly on the evening on which he last saw

but no clues have been obtained as vet
Detectives are to be employed, and efforts

a cannon that fairly woke the echoes; torch
light procession of campaign clubs, and vis-

streets. The houses of republicans were mag
nifcently illuminated, some of the displays
being of the most elaborate character. Many
of Colby's students participated There were
five bands, and the whole pageant was sue

''GARFIELD 329;

and scores of private residences blossomed
with flags, Chinese lanterns, and patriotic
notices. Near the cotton mill was man.

Ira II. Randall, Esq, of this city,
left yesterday for the upper waters
of the kenebec, on business connected
with the numbering firm of Sturgis,
Lambard & Co. Lumbermen are
afraid that when the drought breaks, the
freshet will be tremendous one, and the
logs will be swept with irresistible force past
the booms out into the ocean. Measures are
being taken to prevent this, by piling the
stranded logs up out of harms way, but
where they can be easily rolled into the river.
There are 80, 900, 600 feet of logs on the river
and its tributaries waiting for the longed-for-
rain to float them down to the mills, not only
for present uses, when lumber is command
ing good price, but also for use on the open
ing of spring. The drought is terrible.
There have been no heavy rains for quite a
year, sufficient to float last years cut of logs.
Operations are already going on in the woods.
This is six weeks earlier than for several
years. and this we find is the case in the
lnmber regions all over the State; there
seems to be a general impression among lum-
bermen that it is best to get at the work
early There will be more lumber cut on
the Kennebec this season than for years.
That is the opinion of well posted lumber
men who have crews already in the woods
there. The wages of men are 90 per cent.
h igher this winter than last. Teams are
from five to ten dollars month higher than
last year.
