Eli B. Parker of Middlebury got let
ter recently from his soldier son 81 years
after it had been written. His boy, Ed
ward, escaping from Libby Prison in 1864,
had given letter to q fellOw-prisonef

Hiram G. Kline, POSTMASTER at Wa
spector, L. B. Lamson, recently, for en-
bezzlement and OBTAINING mail matter
He has not made report to the govern
ment, which is supposed to be required
quarterly, since September, 1888. Noti-
fcation of this dereliction was sent regu-
larly from Washington and this seems to
have been the end Of it. One Inspector
came round and reported everything all
right. When Mr.. Lamson went through
the office he found any quantity of private
mail matter and registered letters which
he had detained from the people to whom
they belonged. Registered letters had
been sent to him as s'decoys," and could
be traced as far as his office but not be-
yond. Kline was arraigned before Unit
ed States Commissioner Clarke at Brat
tleboro, Thursday, and held in the sum of
81 1000 for appearance before the United
States circuit court at Rutland in Octo-
Der. He procured bail and was discharg-
ed from custody. Hiram M. Park is APP
pointed acting postmaster in his place un-
til the postmaster general can make a per-
manent appointment to fill the vacancy.

FORCE Among the notable eulogies
pronounced in our own country, on
the day of the great funeral in New
York, were those of Mr.. Blaine at
Augusta, Senator Frye at Lewiston,
Gen. Butler at Lowell, Colonel Hig-
ginson at Cambridge, and Senator
Hoar and General Devons at Wor-
cester. Said Mr.. Blaine: sConten-
ton respecting General Grants rank
as commander ceases, as Unionist
and Confederate alike testify to his
powers in battle and his magnani-
nifty in peace. Controversy over
his civil administration closes. as
democrat and republican unite in
pronouncing him to have been in
every act and aspiration an Ameri-
can patriot" Said Senator Hoar !:
"For the last twenty years of his
life, if you measure him by what it
was his fortune to accomplish, or by
the honors which have been volun-
tarily paid him by mankind, he was
the foremost citizen of the world"
Said Gen. Butler: 81 hold him to
have been substantially as worthy as
mortal man may be of the love, adj
miration and plaudits of this great
people that there is due for him all
over this land the heartfelt SORROW,
the trusting love and the reverent
appreciation with which the nation
now weeps at the portals of his
tomb. He will, and ought to, 60
down to our children and our chill
dren's children, as long as memory
lasts or records endure, as the SOL
dier, the hero, the statesman and
patriot. - Wotchman.

CURE o PILEs

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense
of want of weight in the back, loins and
lower part OF the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some affection
of the kidneys or neighboring organs. AT
times, symptoms ofindigestion are present
aatulency, uneasiness of the stomach, etc.
A moisture like perspira.ion, producing a
very disagrceable itching, after getting
warm. is a common attendant Blind,
bleeding and itching piles yield at once to
the application of DIR. Bosanko's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly on the parts
effected, absorbing the tumors, a~llaying
the intense itching, and cffecting a per
