WITH the experience before them
which the democrats had in trying to
count in Barstow for governor in this
state in 1866 it would seem as if they
could not have been greatly encouraged
in attempting a similar thing this year in
Maine. But their recollection of the
Barstow business may have been blurred,
or perhaps they thought the Maine re
publicans were to be caught mapping,
which was most violent presumption.
In no other way can we account for The
Watertown Democrats pinning its faith
to the thieves in Maine who sought TO
thwart the will Of the people. Let us
hope that the lesson will not be lost upon
The Democrat and that it will hereafter
try and be more honest in politics.

The american Reprint of the En-
cycIODedi0 Britannica

The american Reprint of the En-
cyclOpeeti0 Britannica.
We wish to cad the attention of the readers
and thinkers Of our city to this grand work. No
work of its kind stands higher in the estimation
of scholars than the Encyclopedia Britannica
Its great cost was the only hindranee to its gene
raj use. American readers generally could not
afford to pay ten dollars per volume for twenty
one volumes. And until the work was reprinted
in the United States we were obliged to content
ourselves with its possession in few of our lead
ing libraries.
The work is now furnished in the American Re-
print at about one half its original cost and per-
feet in all its parts, every word, cut illustration,
map and plate being honestly and faithfullz7 re-
produced
Letters like the following show what the lead
ing men of the age think of this great work
Letter from Prof. David Suing of Chicago.
The American Reprint of The Encyclopedia
Britannica is library with index-a library
upon great themes by great men. 1 am glad to
see this edition now first published in America
While poetry deals in sentiment and fiction in
dreams and visions, this work deals in facts; it is
the foundation-stone of wide learning

The Encyclopedia Britannica is, outside
the Bible, the most valuable work in the English
language, Its articles bring down all scientific
and other discoveries to the date of their issue,
so that the general reader who wishes to know
what has been discovered on any matter has on
ly refer to its pages. Through the enterprise
of Messrs Stoddart, of Philadelphia, this great
work is being reprinted in our country, and sold
at half the cost of the English edition. AS the
accuracy of the Reprint is guaranteed, the pur-
chaser obtains for a very small sum what is it.
self perfect library. To buy an abridged en-
cyclopedia, when one so copious and so recent
can be had for nearly the same cost, is to show
ones self fit for the lunatic asylum.
G. d. MATHEWS.
The time for theories, vagaries and fancies, both
in science and religion, is past. Men are asking
everywhere what are the facts. These truths
and their relations to each other constitute true
knowledge, and knowledge crystallized-or the
best thought of the age on every subject conden-
sed and brought within the scope of set of
books constitutes the true encyclopedia and such
is the Encyclopedia Britannica.
