much pleasure and done little harm in
the world. Mrs. Holmes. whose maid
on name was Mary Halves, came of a
fine old Massachusetts family and

We hesitate to say that political
party which was unable to hold a
proper and orderly convention was
totally and entirely unfit to undertake
the government of a state.
The exhibition which the Massachu-

lieve that the sensible voters of that
commonwealth would be likely to en-
trust its government with that Par
