was Ou MS way " dltChu NAio heito
Medical Convention to be held at
Montpelier.
Mr.. Thomas, and MIR. John Connol-
ly with their wives and families took
their departure for Minnesota last
Monday evening. They were good,
honest, industrious men, and as such
are loss to the town.
SPECIAL NOTICE. Mr.. A. r. Camp
bell is aboutretiring from business, and
desires to have all his book accounts
settled at once, either bynote or other
wise, and for that purpose invites all
those who are indebted to him to call
as early as possible.
Another excellent sign of the times, is
the call in another column for 1000 wo-
men. Ladies having spare time and
wanting to do work at home will do
we'll to address Ira Parker & Co.,
Littleton, N. H., a most reliable firm
and one noted for its excellent work.
See advt.
We call attention to the card of the
Stewart House, conducted by Mr.. E. H.
Folsom. Mr.. f. is an old and eXper-
fenced landlord, and knows how to
treat his guests, and judging from the
number of travellers that stop with him
they have already learned to appreci-
ate him and his house.
We direct our readers attention to
the advertisement in another column
of the Montreal E0enipg Post, and True
Witness. These papers are too well
known in this vicinity to need any re-
commentator from us, but Mr.. w. B.
Fletcher has secured the agency for
Essex county, and all orders entrusted
to him will be promptly attended to.
HONEST. A gentleman who was
stopping at the Stewart House on
Thursday evening of last week left his
pocket book, containing some $500 in
cash, and several valuable papers,
underneath his pillow. The book was
found on Friday morning by Miss
Maggie Lenihan, and given up to Mr.
E. H. Folsom, who speedily found the
owner.
If we are to have a celebration on
the coming Fourth of July, it is time
the preliminary steps were taken.
That of last year was highly successful
and afforded great satisfaction to all
who participated therein. The Fourth
falls on Sunday this year, but we be-
lieve it is to be generally observed
throughout the country on the Mon
day following. Several of our citiZe MS
have promised substantial aid, and
nothing is wanting. but some one to
make the initiatory move. Who wall
do it?
DIR. Raymond, a well known and eX-
DcI15lICGG dGIlb6Jl Will NC ul
the Stewart House next Monday, re-
naming in town about ten days. DR..
Raymond comes to Island Pond we'll
recon- mended, having had 16 years of
city practice, and we can assure those
of our readers who are in want of the
services of a good dentist, that they
cannot do better than employ DIR.
Raymond. We mean just what we say,
we have good evidence to corroborate
our assertion. The DR.. also makes
speciality of attending to childrens
teeth.
On Tuesday of last week, our little
village WAS jostlel by the arrival of
about 100 men from Canada, each
with set of carpenters tools. What is
the meaning of this flood of emigration !?
Isit not a harbinger of brighter DAYS in
our country in respect otis industries :?
When men seek work, that seems to be
business and what seems like bust
ness is the antipodes of loafing. And
when we all go to work, then we shall
find as true as there is heaven, those
better times, when men will cease
to grumble, feel better, act better, and
be better.
The Hon. w. Fl. H. Bingham, of
Stowe, so many times honored by the
Democratic nomination for Governor
of Vermont, was at the Stewart House
on Wednesday. Mr.. Bingham has
hosts of warm personal friends all
through the length and breadth of
the state, and it is not from any lack
of individual regard that he has not
before this taken his seat in the guber-
material chair. But his politics are
against him, and he has so far escaped
the labors and the cares of Office. In
Republican Vermont, it is not every
candidate whom the Democrats could
name that could lead them as gallant
ly and as strongly as has Mr.. Bingham.
Messrs. G. E. & u. w. Clarke have
commenced work on their new build
ing to be used as freight house. The
building is on the southerly side of
Main street, on land rented of the G
L. Ry. Co., and is to be 80 feet long
and 25 feet wide. This will have the
effect to cover from the view of passers
a portion of the lumber piled in the
mill yard. The only alteration we can
suggest to Iene in the location or plan
of the building, is that it be moved an
