on the upper floor were removed.
This floor was fast filling with smoke
that was almost sitting, and it was
with what ease the sisters

they lay, some near unto death, and
carried them through the hall to plac-

Middlebury Register,

We notice another kind of mistate-
ment that some of the newspapers
supporting Mr.. Proctor have fallen
into, of assuming or affirming that
there was some alliance between the
friends of Gen. Mccullough and Mr..
Clement. The great majority of the
Republican voters understand per-
fectly well that there is not a word
of truth in this. Gen. McCull Dugh
from the start has been free, and is
free now, from all entangling alli-
ances. For some months the contest
this year was between Gen. McCul-
Tough and DR.. Webb, until the voters
of the State had largely made up
their minds that one of these gentle
men would be governor. DR.. Webb,
withdrawing, it was both natural
and proper for them to unite on Gen.
Mccullough, whom all had admitted
from the start to be eminently fitted
for the place.

FOR STATE AUDITOR.
From Essex County Herald.

Believing it to be one of the most
important uses of country papers to
reflect the sentiments of their various
localities, and when a man is pro.
posed for public position to give the
estimate of that locality of his gen
eral character and qualities essential
to meet the requirements of that
position. we are led to the fact that
Hon. Horace w. Bailey of Newbury
has been comparatively little men,
toned by the press, but much more
discussed by the people in connection
with the office of State Auditor. In
this section of the State he has been
brought into intimate relation with
the inhabitants by having had charge
of large interests by way of having
been administrator and executor OF
wills and otherwise. The people who
know him have come to regard him
as a just, capable and very judicious
man. The village of Newbury COM
prises locality in which we under
stand there is no resident lawyer,
and for many years Mr., Bailey has
represented a large clientagein almost
every way except in court and as a
technical lawyer. His experience in
reference to general business, and
common business neutrality-suspicious.
siderations in a general way, has
been very extensive. In the legisla-
ture his work was very effective and
skillful While there he was always
doing important work on committees
originating as well as dealing with
legislative enterprises. During the
session in which the statutes were
revised he acted in conjunction with
a sub committee, although not Off
cially connected with it, and dis
covered many times a knowledge of
statute law even beyond that of a
lawyer more engrossed in the scien-
tific and technical AS a statistician
he is unexcelled. His investigation
of matters is always most thorough
and searching. He regards every
thing bearing upon a subject as i'm
portant. He knows the nature and
bearing of all such laws as relate to
the adjustment of state accounts as
as well probably as any other man
in the State. This being the estima-
ton in which he is heldin this section
of the State it will as things look
now heartily support him at the next
State Convention for the office of
State Auditor.
