The Argus of this week mentions the
seizure of Mr.. Worden's illicit distillery
with an intimation that the business has
gone on "for several years unmolested by
the internal revenue officers of the state, "
and with the remark in addition that this
is a fortunate strike and shows that the
internal revenue department of Vermont
is in efficient hands" The Argus is GER
tainly right in this last conclusion. The
republican officials, who have done the
main part of the business in putting this
the law, acted efficiently in this case as
they have always done in previous ones
Special Agent Larkin who went with
Deputy Collector Lillis, ferreted out
the moonshine goods and made the seiA-
ure, is an offensive republican partisan OF
a pronounced type so are United States
Attorney Haskins who made out the pa
pers, and Deputy Marshal Sprague who
arrested Mr. Worden, and United States
Commissioner Waterman, before whom
he was brought for his preliminary hear
ing, and United States Marshal Henry
who made the formal attachment of the
contraband goods, and the United States
Clerk of Courts who issued the mOnition.
The most significant fact of all is that up
to May LIST of last year, two months after
the democratic administration come in,
Mr.. Worden had had his distillery regu
larly bonded according to law, but he
seems to have taken it for granted that
such proceeding was unnecessary under
democratic rule We do not mean by
tn is to reflect in the least on the efficiency
of Mr. Lillis or Collector Spear, but the
facts are facts just the same.

BOUQUETS UNDER WATER.
How to Keep Flowers Fresh for n Long
Time.
[Nick's Magazine

WICK : Magazine
The following is a description of the
process by which boquet of flowers can
be preserved fresh for long time A
vessel of water is required; the vessel
should be large enough to allow the sub
mersion in it of plate or dish holding the
bOquet to be preserved, and n bell glass to
cover the boquet The dish or plate should
contain no moss or other material : the
water should be limpid and quite pure
Place the plate at the bottom of the
water, and on the plate, submerging it,
place the bOquet, which is maintained in
an upright position by weighted base
previously attached to it. This being
done, the boquet is covered with bell
glass, the rim of which ought to fit
exactly to the fiat part of the plate ;
the bell glass should be entirely filled
with water and without the least air bub-
! bic. Then, all raised together, plate, bOu-
| quet and bell glass filled with water and
! placed on table, carefully wiping the eN-
| terror, but leaving on the plate around the
base of the bell glass, little provision of
! water, which prevents the entrance Of air.
! The flowers in this condition will be pre-
| served in all their freshness for several
| weeks, and their beauty is increased by Il
great number of bubbles of gas produced
! by the respiration of the leaves, and which
attach themselves to the petals, appearing
! like pearls. The edge of the plate and the
water that it contained should be con
cealed by a light bed of moss in which are
set some other flowers. In the evening,
| by artificial light, a bouquet thus arranged
produces charming effect.

President Cleveland vetoed the bill
granting a pension of $50 month to the
widow of Gen. David Hunter. but signed
the bill appropratiLg $4,000 for repairs to
the furniture for the house IN which Mrs.
Cleveland allows him to reside with her.
You see, the widow of the old soldier was
to take her allowance from the spigot of

1t can be of no possible use to any Re
publican of Vermont to oppose Senator
EdmundS, from any motive of revenge for
anything he did or did not do, in the cam
paign of 1854, especially when such oppo-
sition is the greatest desire of the common
enemy-the Democratic party.
The New York Commercial Adrcr-
tiScr is perhaps the stitfest and straightest
of all Republican papers, and what il says
of Senator Edmunds is therefore peculiar
ly significant. Here it is at is generally
thought here that the action of the Repub-
licanS i'll the Vermont conventions lnsures
Senator Edmunds's reelection and there is
an almost universal feeling of satisfaction
in consequence. Mr.. Edmunds is IA thorn
l,
cable political chieftain a hard hitter and
dangerous foe, and this makes it all the
more complimentary to him that this
feeling of satisfaction is so general. 1t is
simply spontaneous and irrepressible
tribute to brains"
