A CARD.

Ed. EAGLE: Having heard that
it was reported by some, that I al
a candidate for the Legislature, did
not intend to canvass with the 70.
ters for the nomination, de.
sire to correct the mistake. As ID
generally known, l an q farmer,
and owing to the late rains, could
not leave my farm without making
q considerable. sacrifice, which ]
know my farming and other friends
would not have asked of me, but
now say to the voters of this coun.
ty that from now until the Con.
vention, I expect to spend with
them, whose support l solicit. !
believe that voters should know
the man before they vote for him.
l would like to see all, but to those
l fail to see, would say that if in
terested enough, to inquire of any
person in my part of the county
as to my standing, capability, &C..
and if they find in me a man that
can concentrate the vote of the
Democratic party, and honorably
represent our county in the next
State Legislature that l will thank
them for their support in the nomi-
mating convention.
Respectfully,
T. B. WALDORF.

A statement has been put in
circulation within the last few
weeks, the effect that I submitted
my name to the convention Of the
0rcenback Party, held in the fall
Of 1881, for the Office Of Sheriff.
To those who aIe personally &C.
quainsed with me, / do not think
It necessary to deny a charge 90
maliciously false, but lest IL m,Rht
roach the ears Of some a not
known to me, l take this method
OF saying that the statement above
referred to, 10 utterly and Islander.
ously false, put 10 circulation nov

What is there more beautiful or
more pleasing to the eye during the cherries
winter season than window filled with house
plants blooming with bright colored and pref,
tly tinted flowers? When the fields, smil-
ing with verdu-e in summer. are covered
with a waste Of snow, and the trees are bare
and leafess, flowers seem to cheer the mind,
weared with business cares and tolls,
rs nothing else can. Yet how few
ladies and housekeepers seem to have the
knack of keeping house PLANTS in a -four
ishing condition so they will bloom.
Some with small rooms and limited quarters,
with nothing but window shelf. will have
flowers in profusion all winter long. Their
geraniums will always be found in bloom
and their pinks are ever sweet. Others
who NAV have costly Conservatives and
every appliance needed to make their q lants
thrive, of entimes fail. They do NOT seem
to possess the necessary qualifications to
make fioriculturists. II requires natural
aptitude. Every lady should, if possible,
have flower garden and cultivate it herself.
There is no more healthy or pleasing recrea
ton than rearing and watching the growth
and development of plants.

STATE W. u AWE CENTRAL RAIL-
Road.


The case Of the State against the Maine
Central from the fact that it vas the first
trial in the State under the present law that
governs such cases attracted more than usual
interest. We give few points in Judge
Libbey's able charge. Judge Libbey in.
structed the jury that 25 miles an hour the
rate at which the Indictment alleged
the train that killed DIR. Pickard was run
ming, was not dangerou, rate of speed !:
that railroad corporation under the law has
q right to regulate the rate at which its
trains shall b. run. This is not matter for
jury to decide. Ii it were so jury in one
county might decide that twenty-five miles
an hour was dangerous ra'e of speed, and
in another county that fifteen or twenty
miles was faster than train should be al
lowed to run. Judge Libbey. therefore. in
strucfed the jury not to take this point into
consideration deciding the case. In re-
CARL to the alleged negligence in reference
to ringing the bell. The statute that gov
ems this case SAYS: "A bell of the weight
of thirty-fve pounds or more shall he placed
on each engine used a railroad. and
rung at the di-tsnce Of eighfy-ive rods or
more from the crossing of way on the
same level or running contiguous thereto,
and kept ringing until the enjine has passed
the same; and steam whistle, or, in cities
and villages, bell shall be sounded AS a
warning at a distance of 100 rods" 1t was
claimed on the part of the prosecution that
an omission to ring the bell was negligence.
Judge Libbey instructed the jury that such is
not the rule Of law. Judge Libbey instruct
ed the jury that an omission to comply with
any statute provision is not Of itself. conclu-
sive evidence of negligence, but it is evidence
for the consideration Of the jury in connec.
ton with all that is disclosed upon the ques-
ton of neglect. 1t would authorize the jury
to find neglect without other evidence, but
the case might be such as would anlhorize
them to find no neglect when the whistle
was not sounded or bell rung because it is
possible that in some cases to sound a
whistle or ring a bell would be the most
dangerous thing TO be done by the engineer
und-r the state of circumstances. For
instance, suppose an engineer should see
horse approaching crossing, frightened. and
trying to get away from the driver. If in
such case he should omit to blow the
whistle, which might brighten the horse still
more, it would not be negligence to the team
or driver. Judge Libbey instructed the jury
that it must be satisfied that the person kill
ed was exercising ordinary care, such as
would be observed by a prudent person.
