President-lines that will be often quoted and long remembered-I refer to the famous letter written to Mrs. Byxbee, which runs as follows: To Mrs Byxbee, Boston, Mass.:
 Dear Madam:-I have been shown in the files of the War Department a statement of the Adjutant General of Massac chusetts that you are the moth CT of five sons who have died glorious ly on the field of battle. U feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to be- guile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from rendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the republic they died to save. I pray that our Heavenly Father may as- suage the anguish of your bereave- ment, and leave you only the cherish ed memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.
 Yours very sincerely,
 A. LINCOLN.
 You surviving veterans.
 You are nearing your last call, and the gulf is rapidly narrowing that separates you from your departed comrades.
 Your sun is sinking, and your gaps, ever widenind, now show strongly against the light.
 In few more years the sun will have set for the last one of the boys in blue, and the night of history will have closed in upon the Civil War. whose faces you will now look upon are real heroes of the nation. They fought for us and died with the sat isfaction of duty well and nobly done. They sleep in the land they made free, under the flag they redeemed They

Easily Mixed Kidney Recipe.

What will appear very interesting to
many people here is the article taken
from New York daily paper, which
is said to be positive remedy for
backache or kidney or bladder derange-
ment, if taken before the stage of
Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Shake well in bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known druggist here at home,
when asked regarding this prescrip-
ton, stated that the ingredients are
all harmless, and can be obtained at
small cost from any good prescription
pharmacy, or the mixture would be
put up if asked to do so. He farther
stated that while this prescription is
often prescribed in rheumatic Attic
tions with splendid results, he could
see no reason why it would not be a
splendid remedy for kidney and urinary
troubles and backache, as it has a
peculiar action upon the kidney
structure. cleansing these most impor-
tant organs and helping them to sift
and filter from the blood the foul
acids and waste matter which causes
sickness and suffering. Those of our
readers who suffer can make no
mistake in giving it trial.

Annual School Meeting.

The annual meeting of Newport
Academy and Graded School district
was held at Schoolhouse hall on Fri
day evening, Mar. 80, and the follow
ing officers were chosen: Moderator.
ID. M. Camp; clerk, Geo. F. Root;
treasurer. C. F. Davis: trustee for
three years, Rev. R. Flagg; collector
of delinquent taxes. E. ]. Hill; truant
officer, ]. H. Martin auditors, G. +.
BigeIow, c.. A. Brown and A. H.
Grout. 1t was voted to MAINTAIN
schools during the ensuing year, and
the length of terms was left to the
discretion of the trustees. A tax of
80 cents on the dollar of grand list
was voted and it was voted to pay
$1,000 on the debt of the district. The
taxes will be collected through the
treasurer and the usual discounts al
lowed. The report of E. S. Watson,
district superintendent, was listened
to with much interest. This report
showed improved conditions in many
UlIGCGlOIlS anu COubAllGu SuSSCSG
for improvement in others. A course
of manual training was earnestly adj
vocated, and vote was taken that the
trustees introduce in the first SIX
grades this course, as the expense for
materials and teacher would not be
greatly increased. for the present at
least. Should the trial of the manual
training prove successful, it will be
introduced in the seventh and eighth
grades later. Principal Parker being
absent in Washington. D. c., his re-
port was read by Mr.. Watson. This
report recommended strongly the dis
continuance of so much amusement
during the term time, whereby the pu-
pills were rendered mentally and physi-
cally incapable of the best work in the
school. Quite discussion was held
over the ACCESSIBILITY of the renting of
the hall for dances during the school
week. This matter was finally
dropped as no disposition could be
made Of it under the warning.

Orleans County Court.

Adjournment has been taken by the
court till April IL and the jurors have
been excused till that time. The last
case to come before the jury before
adjournment was that of State VS.. Geo.
Collins, grand larceny. 1t appears
that the respondent, Collins. hired a
team Of John Blair, proprietor of
livery stable in Newport, ostensibly
for drive to Jay on some business or
other. AS he did not go to his avow-
ed destination, but drove the horse
much farther, was gone longer than
per agreement in fact the owner had
to go after his team-he was arrested
and charged with grand larceny, to
which he plead not guilty. The jury
however thought differently and re-
turned verdict of guilty. Collins
was sentenced TO serve term of not
less than one and one-half, nor more
than two years in States prison.
Some minor cases were disposed of
by the court, but none of them are of
special interest to the public. When
court reconvenes on April Is it is ex-
pected that either Judge Stanton or
Judge Hall will preside. Two civil
cases are set for trial, in both of which
Judge Miles is disqualified from sit
ting. The adjourned portion of the
term will probably be of short dura-
ton. Contrary to some reports, G. A.
Abbott. in Jail charged with forgery,
had up to Saturday night been unable
to secure bail. Should he not be able
to procure bondsmen, his case is likely
to be tried at this term. Luman Stay
ton, who WIS unable to procure bail on
charge of malicious prosecution, has
been given his liberty his prosecutors
not desiring trial by jury at this
term. This seems unlikely to come
to trial. In municipal court, Judge
Cushman disposed of the following
cases the past week: State vs.. Henry
Narcotic, intoxication, fine of SIS and
costs, which was paid. State VS.. Ar
thur MILO, intoxication, second offense,
SIS and costs, paid. James Connolly,
found guilty of vagrancy, was given
jail sentence of 80 days.
