Exhausted, as they were, the life guard;
made a supreme effort, took the camp, aud
by happiest chance found it well supplied
with all they lacked. Admirable tents

bottles, what not. For the time they
were in clover; whit lucky hit! So you
sec when | described myself as having
seen them sweltering and sun stricken, I
was taking pardonable poetic license to
harrow up your feelings and make you
understand that they were deserted by the
commissariai, aud would have had poor
time of it if they could not have helped
themselves. When saw them they were
getting on comfortably, some ooiffes in
oriental handkerchiefS, reclining on ORR
entail cushions under glily painted canvass
like the bale. nc. of the opera. Its
very sad no doubt this almost iuextriclble
state of confusion but the officials here
cannot be blamed for the muldle. They
are doing their best to bring form out Of
chaos. If the transport and the commisa.
riat department had been landed at once
and alone Immediately after the occupation
of Ismalia, they could have gone to work
with a clear field. But no; the troops
must be nnded instlnter, and landed
they were-hurry-skurry, helter-skclter,
and everyb pJy - ,blu' ive-and-twenty
generals inclI f." -tlnDl1l over every
body else, and the ne.urd result was that
the soldiers were picked off us though
they had been made OF clsI.iron, with
clock work insides, warranted not to be
run down.

The Fall Elections.

In New York Senator Folgcr accepts the
republican nomination for governor but
dcnomccs the trickery that was il,grant
among some Of his supporters in the pre-,
liminarcs of the state convention As il
looks now the republican cempaign in
that state is not very promising.
In Pennsylvania the break in the lc-
publican ranks still continues and there is
donbt whether the regulars, who are The
Camcronians, can carry the election. For
the future health of the republican party a
temporary defeat that would blunce Don
Cameron and his style of management
would be the very best thing tina. could
happen.
In Massachusetts Gen. Butler does not
vet say whether he will acccp! the Gcm-
ccratic nomination or not. His republic
can opponent, Mr.. Bishop, is a worthy
man and one up with the times, and il is
not all probable that Gen, Bullcrcan como
any where near an election agoinsl him,
hut he may try all the same,
In New Hamps hire the republicans 60
mo the canvass in a bad WY. They had
so rich men who spent thoa5enls
dollars in that pursuit. C)l, El!criy, til
democratic candidate for govtn0 in hi,
letter denounces the u.s. OF mon3y in elect
ions and if he means what he says, rs it is
aid he does, it would not be btd ilet 20
have him win and a rebukc alminis'c rr,j

republican convention in that state.
The republican party got its ascyndanry
originally by the will Of The p'op'o

The Legislature.

The seventh biennial session of the
Vermont Legislature began TO day and
the two houses were organized with moro
than the customary speed-thc most time
taken up in contests being occupied in
finding out who should be chaplains.
In the Senate C. w. Brownell of Bur-
lington was reelected secretary without
opposition. On assistant secretary there
WAS 4 contest, there being three candi-
dates. One of these, Mr.. Stone, virtually
disappeared in some way from the strug
gle and the balloting showed that Mr.. y.
X. Brown of Sheldon was chosen over
Frank A. Dwinell of Plainlield who was
assistant secretary in 1880.
Rev. Mr.. Hazen of Mortified and Rev.
II, A. Rogers of Montpelier were candi.
lttes for chaplain, and at the close of the
canvass the voting showed a majority Of
half dozen for Mr.. Rogers.
There was brisk contest in tho Ionse
on speaker. The first h 81, gave the
election to Hon. Jane, /. Martin of
Londonderry by vote of liz to G6 for
Ion. I.oveland Munson, 4 for DR.. L, G.
Butler Of Essex and one scattering. We
have spoken before of the qualities OF
Mr.. Martin as presiding olli;,r,and had
the House had more than the dcz'l old
members it has, probably th2 contest
would have resulted more l,,ga)g in his
favor.
The election of Mr.. Martin is a hi n
compliment as his republican Oppose It,
Mr.. Munson, is gentleman who is INN
self an exceptionally good presiding OIL
Ger and one who has large acquaintance
and many friends in all parts of the state
Mr.. Martin is serving his fifth term in the
legislature and Mr.. Munson his fourth
The service of the former has been con
tnuous in the House, while Mr.. Munson
has been in both the House and Senate and
not in consecutive years. DR.. Butler Of
EeseX, the democratic candidate, is also
Il man well and faverably known and de-
served to draw, as he did, his full party
vote The election of Mr. Martin will
secure rapid work.
Mr.. Merrill was not again candidate for
clerk and his former assistant W. w.
stichney of Ludlow was elected clerk
without opposition. His assistants are
Mr., DIN Merrill and Mr.. j ohm II. Mcrri-
sal1l, both well acquainted with the duties
of the offices TO which they are appointed.
The most doubtful contest of the day
was over the chaplaincy Of the House.
The principal candidates were Rev. II. A.
Spencer and Rev. Howard 7, Hi Of
Montpelier. 1t took three ballot: ~ decide
the matter and Mr.. Hill was chosen by
about "baker's dozen" for majority
The two houses are thus ready, in matter
bola secular and religious, to 90 on with
the work OF the session. AMI, with Mr.
BART chosen as president pro temporG of
the Senate to complete the list Of officers,
both branches are we'll ofliccrcd and there
is no reason why the work before thom
may not be done quickly and we'll,

In the evening reception was given at
the home of Mrs. Z. L. Willing, which
was a very pleasant affair. A large num-
Der of ladies from Bennington and North
Bennington and quite a number of gen.
tlemen were present, which spoke volumes
for the temperance cause and their inter-
est in our work. We were not long in
finding ont that these men had, with the
ladies, been doing wonders in Bennington
