this time of the year. Vegetation of every

From the ArgOSy.l

The President OF the new republic of
COunani IN. Gross with his wife and a nu-
meTOus suite of second and third class
Mail steamer passengers, arrived here yes
terday from Europe en- route for the scene
of their glory. The President is an elder
ly gentleman with a head of Whitley. brown
hair that falls over his shoulders, and
makes shin more remarkable in appearance
than beautiful. His men are what iii
sporting parlance would be called %
scratch lot, several of them conspicuous by
tall c~himney.pOt hats posed on the top of
bushy uncombed heads of hair; their tout
ensemble recalling pictures of French life
and character as we have seen these re.
presented pictorially, in French books of a
certain class OF merit. RepuLlicanism is
evidently an engrossing thought with them,
to the exclusion even of the ordinary
affairs of the toilet.
We nave to thank Mr.. O'Maley for 10
copy OF the report Of the Directors OF Ihe
Colonial Bank submitted to the halfyeHr-
ly general meeting held on the jth Of July.
The net profits for the half year cater pro-
vidimg for bad and doubtful debts amount
ed to G51,S7l, out to which the directors
recommended "a dividend OF 500 for the
half-year, the balance, Ell ,87l, 10 be car
ried forward to the next term. The direc-
tors, referring to the Bill now before Par
lament to render The corporation u limi-
ted-llabl'lty one, said that it had met with
Il check in its progress, but they hoped
thar the negotiations now pending with
the Government will result in an arrange.
ment which will be satisfactory to the pro-
prietorS. The expenses OF conducting the
institution for the half-yrar were G29,640.
The report is u masterpieces Of dirtctorIal
workmanship, giving as it does the mini,
mum amount of information tn the pro.
prittOrs and providing mnboundr,l room
for the run of their imagination. The list
of directors has quite a family party APP
pearancr. One of the most noticeable Ut
the features in the report is the indebted.
ness Of the Bank to the public. The notes
in circulation amount to 9427, OBS and the
deposits at interest, on current account,
and other liabilities amount to G2, $50, sos.
The ptid.up capital is 5000, 600.

A correspondent Of the Daily Chronicle
says that caSNareep can be obtained from
cocoanutS, OF equal consistency, Havour
and strength, to that obtained from caSsa-
Va. We should like some Of our country
friends to put this statement to the proof,
and say whether the substance obtained by
boiling down the nut is equal in antiSpp-'
tic properties to the caSSava caSsareep-
Of course, in point OF value the casSava is
very much cheaper than the cocoanut ; but
in certain parts of the colony it might be-
found to pay to boil down the cocoa.milk
into cassareep.

An Unusual Club Offer.

The demand for thorough discussion of
both sides of the living questions of the

Forum So. For limited time we will re-
ceive subscriptions to both for S5 year.

tember are Causes of Social Discomfort,

POintedly Put.

Mr. Editor:-In the WATCHMAN of Septem-
ber 3, One Of the Fools, in his rejoinder
to l.. b. B., states that the vote of temper
ance man in the republican party is counted
for the interests of the liquor traffic and is
worse than wasted, This is a falsehood
that has been so often reiterated by the pro-
hibition speakers and papers that some, per-
haps, believe it TO be the truth. That 1t is
a falsehood, the efficient prohibitory laws
of our own and other New England states
are ample proof, and until public sentiment
will sustain these laws we need no more,
nor any third party either. In the Northern
states the democratic party is the rum party,
and whatever has been done for prohibition
has generally been done by the republican
party, as every intelligent person very well
knows In the South, of course, whatever
is done must be done by democrats, as re.
publicans can have no voice in politics in
the Solid South. The enforcement Of tenn
perance laws devolves no more upon po-
litical party than that of laws against muir
der, arson or any other crime. The practi-
cal effect Of the prohibition party is shown
plainly in New York politics. J.P.s

Washington County Court.

The first case for trial by jury was that of
r. T. Baxter rs. National Granite Company
of Barre. This was an action of deceit
brought at the September term, 1887. The
plaintiff, Baxter, claimed that he loaned
certain models in the summer of 'S7 to the
National Granite Company, with the ex-
press understanding that said models should
not be used upon any work or monuments
that would come in competition with the
work or business of the plaintiff, who re-
sided at Glens Falls, n Y, and was in the
granite business. The plaintiff also claimed
that by said contract no monuments of the
defendant, in the construction of which
said models We're used, were to be set
within fifty miles of Glens Falls that the
defendant broke said contract by erecting
large monument near Glens Falls, in the
construction of which said models were
used. The plea of the defendant was the
general issue, and to support his case papers
were produced by the defendant to show
that whatever contract was made was re-
duced to writing, and in said writing there
was no restriction as to how said models
should be used. The case went to the jury
Wednesday forenoon and they brought in a
verdict for defendant to recover costs. Pit
kin 4 Huse and Bisbee for plaintiff. S. c..
ShurtleH for defendant.

der. The evidence in the case tends to
show that last winter these parties, both
plaintiff and defendant, were candidates for
the post-offce at North Fayston; that dur
ing the contest the defendant, Marble, rep
resented that the plaintiffs reputation for
chastity was not good that she was afflicted
with a certain venereal disease, conse-
quently it would be unsafe and dangerous
to the public to permit her TO handle the
mail; that liquor and cider were sold at plain
tiffs house. Other charges of like nature
were made, The defense is that certain of
the declarations made by the defendant
were made to the post-ofice inspector, and
We're of a privileged character; that the
other declarations were true. A the time
of going to press the jury had not taken the
case.
The new entry docket was called Satur-
day forenoon. 1t contains fifty new cases.
