THE NEWS had a pleasant visit on
Monday morning from Prof. o. s. Mum
sell, of Morris county, who has been
nominated for representative by the Re
publicans. Prof Munsell is gentle
man of. rare accomplishments, having
for fifteen years been connected with the
Illinois Wesleyan college, at Blooming
ton. He represents political matters as
in good shape in Morris county, and be-
lieves the Republican ticket will have a
handsome majority. There is no doubt
but that the professor will make an eff.
cIent and prominent member of the leg
isIature if the voters of his county shall
confer the office upon him.

A Good Introduction.

Favorite remedy was introduced into Con
necticut in 1877, at the solicitation of Rev.
j. G. Smith. of Hartford. who. after having
suffered two years from Chronic Liver Dis
ease and Indigestion. obtained the medicine
and was cured. This faithful pastor, think
ing of the bodies as well as the souls of his
people, at once commenced the advocacy OF
"Favoritc Remedy" among them. and has
been the happy instrument OF saving scores
of lives. Favoriie Remedy is now as well
and favorably known in Connecticut as along
the Hudson One dollar a bottle. All drug
gists sell it. DIR. David Kennedy, Proprietor.

Some Figures for the Nation to
Ponder Over.
Washington Republican. ]

w d>HiHStoi htpuuiitaii
The democratic orators and editors are try
ing to make out that the republicans have
ruined the country Yes; and this is the
way it was done;
In 1860. after twenty years of democratic
rule, government six per cent bond sold
for eighty nine cents.
In 1850, after twenty years of republican
rule, government four per cent bond sells
for one dollar and eight cents.
In 1860, after twenty years of democratic
rule. lean of SIS, 900, 600 exhausted the mar
ket for six months.
At the end oftwenty wears of republican
rule, loan of $50 100000 was taken in a
single day.
In twenty years of republican rule we find
An increase of population of fifty per cent.
An increase of general agricultural ex-
ports of six hundred per cent
An increase in exports of bread and bread
stuffs of six hundred and fifty per cent.
An increase of exports of manufactured ar
ticles of two hundred and twenty-five per
cent
An increase of internal commerce of seven
hundred per cent
An increase of railway mileage of one
hundred and eighty-seven per cent
In 1860, after twenty years of democratic
rule. Congress authorized loan of S25, 900, =
600 to pay current expenses.
In 1850, after twenty wears of republican
rule. the Secretary of the Treasury paws
$4,000, 600 of debt contracted for the war
brought on by solid democratic South.
which now wants power again so as to stop
the waving of that bloody shirt the wearing
of which is Hancock's chief glory and his
whele available stock as candidate for the
Presidency.
In 1860. after twenty years of democratic
rule, the balance of trade against the country
was over $40. 900 900.
On May 81. 1850. after twenty wears of re-
publican rule. the balance of trade was over
SlG2 200. 900 in favor of this country.
In 1860. after twenty wears of democratic
rule and teaching, there was very serious
question whether we had any nation. And
the old public functionary in the White
House. whose chief adviser was Jere Black.
the man who now furnishes the statesmanship
for Gen. Hancock. announced that there was
mo power in the government to coerce the
State. leaving the inference that JEFF Davis
and Alec Stephens could send the country TO
the demnition bOw-wows for all he could do
to prevent it. After twenty wears IF republi-
can rule there is no doubt that we have A
country. and Alec Stephens and Jere Black
would give all they are worth to have the
people forget that they ever questioned IT,
The kind Of ruin which five successive re-
publican administrations have inflicted upon
the country is inst little striking in view of
the figures, and the people like il and call for
more of the same sort, and are bound to have
il, too.

OF the fight in Aroostook county the
correspondent of the Boston Herald says :
This year the fusionsts have not made
a movement. They have had no reeog
nized leader since the death of James c.
Madigan. The republicans. on the other
hand, are active and aggressive. Already
they have held meetings at all the promi-
nent points, at which Gov. Davis, Con-
gresham Reed. Senator Hamlin. Capt.
Boutelle, and others have spoken. The
press dispatches underestimated the size
of the Fort Fairfield meeting Saturday
night. when probably $500 people were
present. as many as ever attended a repub-
lican gathering in the county. and the fight
is only beginning. think it is generally
understood that in Aroostook valley the
republicans are gaining. The most i'm

The Opposition Congressional Con-
yentiOps in this District.

The opposition Congressional Conven-
tons held in this district yesterday, NOM
inated WILLIAM PHILBRICK of Show
hogan as their candidate for Congress
The conventions were held at a safe dis
lance from each other. there being some
danger of an explosion ifheld in the same
town.
Mr.. Philbrick was the greenback candi-
date two years ago. He was formerly
republican but on account OF personal
matters became disaffected and left the
marty. and was one of the first in the
State to join the greenback party He
has been in the banking business the greater
part of his life, held the office of Bank
Commissioner under a republican admin
stration. and was Insurance Commission
er under the Garcelon administration.
Two>years ago he ran for Congress and
was beaten.
The nomination is the weakest one the
opposition could have made. Any other
man mentioned except possibly Brown oil
Fairfield would have been stronger at the
polls than Mr.. Philbrck He is an I'M
popular man among the masses. He has
no sympathy with the common laboring
people. His connection with the banking
business for thirty years is not favorably
regarded by greenbackers.
There is also bitter opposition among
democrats TO Mr.. Philbrick. as was appar-
ent when his name was presented TO the
convention in this city for endorsement 1t
was openly declared by prominent mem
bers that he could not receive the demo-
cratic strength in their sections. They
would support a greenbacker ofdemocratie
antecedents for Congress but not one of re-
publican antecedents. This feeling is
generally shared by the democrats. They
wanted man of their own stripe to vote
for. They don't want to be in the hands
OF g republican creenbacker if Hancock
should be elected. They would be better
off as party to be defeated with straight
democratic candidate than to have Phil
brick elected.
There is some loud and earnest talk
since the conventions adjourned. against
the nomination, and great deal Of sup
pressed feeling. Fusion don't work we'll
Men object decidedly to so much wire
working-so much managementby Bosses.
The fingers of the Bosses are everywhere
visible. They :. fix things to suit them
selves. The common people are led or
driven like sheep to market. Very few of
them will vote for Mr.. Philbrick willingly
and hundreds of democrats and green
hackers will not vote for him at all
Some already avow that they will vote
for Mr.. Lindsey.
