Talking Temperance.
EDITOR REGISTER:


At recent Sunday school conyen.
ton the subject of Bleaching temper
ance in the Sunday SCHOOL, was brought
up for discussion. The conductor said
in the beginning that Temperance
should not be taught either in church
or in Sunday school," OF course such
a statement startled those who were
strong temperance men, and quite q
lively discussion followed. After this
had gone on for some time the conduct
or arose and said that we should not
talk temperance, but should talk against
intemperance with all the powers we
have. He said that when yon talk tenn
perance, the moderate drinker has you
because he will affirm that he is tenn.
perate, that he does not drink more
than two or three glasses day; bnt in.
temperance should always be spoken
against, everywhere. We cannot say
tOosmuch on that subject.
He classed liquor drinking with al
the evil things spoken against Ia th,
Bible. He further said that II ever,
young lady wonld set her face deter
minedly against receiving the attention
of young men who taste liquor, Il woul,
do more than everything else TO bansI
intemperance from the land.
This talking temperance Is 10 on
minds new idea, but when we of ii,
seems just. 8.

9f The week was tho marriage of Miss

ly known throughout this community

than passing notice of this very enjoya-
bic occasion. Among the guests we
noticed the Hon. Mr.. Lyon and wife of

The presents were numerous and use
full, and the most noticeable was d
lovely castor, cake basket, the tjrniost

cakes coffee. strawberries and ice

The adieus were taken principally

Thp Eirst district.

While the result of the Convention IN
the First District of course pleases Col
Joycc's numerous friends throughout
the state, IL has surprised and disap
pointed many Republicans who have
supposed that whenever Gov. Stewart
should be ready to serve the district In
Congress, the large majority Of the lie,
publicans of the district would be glad
10 be represented by a man of his abili.
| Nv, high personal character and general
popularity. That his own county would
unanimously endorse him, in this mat
ter, rs heretofore in many others, was
expected as thing of course. The ex-
PLANTATION of the result we suppose TO be
that member of Congress who has
served crcditably and who desires re-
election commonly has IL in his power
10 pull good many strings, and TO put
good many people under obligation TO
him; that in this case Col. Joyce had
friends among soldiers and others, who
were active in his behalf, while Gov.
Stewart and his friends were doing lit
tle: and that the fnct that rcappor-
ktionment of the districts is at hand, and
Mat this il probably the last term ofthe
ezisting First District, largely neutral
| lied the consideration that the custo-
mary limit of three terms had been
reached by Col. Joyce. When the town
caucuses began to be held, it soon be-
came apparent that sharp contest was
in progress and that the result was
doubtful. When the convention met
Col. Joyce had the backing OF the ma
iority of his own county OF Rutland, a
portion of Washington county, where
he formerly resided, and several towns
in Addison county. Governor Stew
art had n majority of his own county, a
lerge share of Washington county, and
one or two towns in Rutland county,
while Bennington county reserved lts
strength for lis own candluates, tnree
of whom entered tho field, MIR. Batchel-
der of Arlington, Mr.. Colburn OF Dor
set, and Mr.. Munson of Manchester.
On the first and subsequent ballots the
two leading candidates received exactly
the same number of votes. In the end,
enough of the Bennington men, who
undoubtedly considered that, il they
could not nominate Bennington coun-
~ man this time, it was for their inter-
est TO keep the field open for the next
time by returning Col. Joyce for one
more term, gave him votes enough 10
nominate him.
Col. Joyce will, of course, be re-elect-
ed and will serve the district for ahoth-
err term as acceptably as in the past.
Gov. Stewards frieDds-who, when they
became fairly turned to the work, made
a stout fight for him-have right to DC
proud of their candidate, and of their
earnest though unsuccessful efforts in
his behalf; and they will, doubtless as
they well may, find comfort Ill the re-
Election that when the state is redistrict-
cd and divided as it will be by the
mountain line, the effort to call Gov.
Stewards eminent ability and high in
tegrity into the public service may be
renewed under more favorable auspices.
And all, we trust, will lay aside any bit,
ter feelings excited by the contest anu
make Joint and hearty fight against the
common enemy.-[Bnrlington Free
