Miles. county had conceded a Senator to Burlington. If it was not so they, of course, had no claim. Mr. Ladd said Burlington had the same rights as the county towns, but it had no right to come up here and break an old established rule.

Cap't. U. A. Woodbury of Burlington thought Mr. Ladd an exemplification of his own statement that the longer a man remains in the Legislature the worse he grows.

Laughter. Capt. Woodbury thought a false issue had been raised. Mr. Ballard was not only the candidate of Burlington but of many delegates from outside the city.

He would represent with honor and credit not only the city but the entire county. The opposition was largely personal. E. T. Holbrook at this point attempted to comb of Richmond seconded by delegates from Williston, South Burlington, Jericho and Burlington.

H. N. Newell of Shelburn nominated Walter A. Weed of that town. Since the formation of the Republican party, he said, the town had had but two county officers.

They found no fault, but if there was such a thing as rotation it was Shelburn's turn. Mr. Newell then gave a list of county officials in the last eighteen year3 as distributed among the different towns, showing that Shelburn had had far less than the other towns. In behalf of the whole delegation he nominated Mr. Weed.

Seconded by J. E. Wheelock in behalf of the Milton delegation, and Captain Woodbury of eulogizing Mr. Weed as an earnest and active Republican and an upright maa and by Dean Hosford of Char VENTION. A Large aai Spirited Gathering.

Let all bitterness and discord be forgotten. Let the county give the largest Republican majority she has ever cast and let the State roll up a majority of at least 25,000. Applause.

The organization of the convention was then completed by the election of Charles E. Allen of Burlington as secretary. C. S. Palmer moved a committee of five to report a county committee.

E. T. Holbrook raised a question about the right of the county committee to select a permanent chairman. Hon. C.

I. Ladd of Milton said the convention had ratified the Committee's choice and he supposed its members knew what they were about. Mr. Palmer's motion was carried; and the chair appointed as such committee Messrs. Palmer, F.

M. Yan Sicklen, of Bur lington, Dean Hosford of Charlotte, O. H. Ellis of Huntington, and I. W.

Sayles of Richmond. J. E. Wheelock of Milton moved the ap pointment of a committee of five on resolu tions. Carried and the chair appointed as such committee Messrs.

Wheelock, Samuel Hun tington Burlington, A. B. Halbert of Essex, W. X. Murray of Williston, and H.

N. Newell of Shelburn. Hon. A. B.

Halbert of Essex introduced the following resolution: IUeoltfl, That this convention is ornosel to anv change of the rule as established and practised by previous conventions of the Republican party in this county regarding the term of oillce of our Sen ators. Judge Ilulbert in presenting his resolution briefly addressed the convention, claiming that the question ought to be settled before balloting. II. N. Newell moved that the resolution be laid on the table.

C. S. Palmer thought the question ought to be fairly and squarely tested. ne hoped that the motion to table would not prevail, The question was first tested at the State Convention of 1873 and decided in favor of one term. In all of the counties of the State the rule prevails and in this very county it has been maintained.

He then referred to the county convention of 1873 at some length, and claimed that the sentiment to-day was the same as then. He disclaimed any per sonal feeling in the matter, but thought it unwise to create at this time such a disturbance as a senatorial renomination would cause. If it is fair for one to be renominated it is fair also for the other two Senators. 'Hon. Samuel Huntington of Burlington said he wanted to express his thanks for the action of the convention two years ago in dropping his name.

It was the most sensi ble thing they could do. All this opposition to Mr. Ballard comes from personal feeling. For time immemorial the county has given this city a Senator. I appeal to your sense of magnanimity whether it is not right that Burlington should have the man for Senator that she wants.

Burlington does not interfere with the choice of the other Senators. This will be an important year in legislation. We cannot afford to send a weak man. We are proud of our Senator and we ask for Lis renomination. Hon.

C. I. Ladd of Milton spoke of the bolt of 1874 and in a bitterly personal speech attempted to revive the animosities of that campaign. He denied that Burlington had any right to a Senator. As to legislative ex perience, the new members are fresh from the people and honest it is the old members who are up to schemes of chicanery.

Mr. Huntington said that he supposed the Up to Three O'clock this Morning. FR09I WASHINGTON. ins isthmian canal. Washington, July 7.

Engineer Menccal, of the United States navy, who has returned here from says that as the result of his latest visit he has shortened the proposed line seven miles, thus saving the government $7,000,000. Mr. Menecal speaks as if the government had fully determined to build the cftaal and that it was already a United States work. LIBERIA. The minister of Liberia in a despatch to the department of state writes in glowing terms of the land and of the opportunities offered settlers.

Every family on arriving in Liberia receives from the government twenty-five acres of the finest land and each individual emigrant ten acres. A competence is within reach of all. American tobacco, cotton goods, salt, provisions and improved agricultural machinery are in demand. Steam communication between the United States and Africa is sadly needed. The native traders desire closer relations with the United States.

They propose to take their chances under the new amnesty act passed by the French deputies. They have no fear of being arrested on their arrival A CURIOUS CASE. A mysterious package was sent to the office of Anthony Comstock, special agent for the society for the suppresion of crime in May last. Comstock was not in and his stenographer, Arthur Durel, received it and noticed it had a peculiar and obnoxious smell. After placing it down he washed his hands.

Durel is now physisians say from blood poisoning. When the package was opened it resembled a sticking plaster and the stench was so great that the office had to be disinfected. Physicians are greatly puzzled over the case. The young man's whole body is covered with ruptures and though formerly strong and healthy, he has wasted away to almost a skeleton and is now a very critical condition. Comstock thinks he knows the guilty parties and will soon have them in custody.

It is believed their purpose was to effect Comstock's death believing he would open the package. KEW EWCIiAII NEWS. PRESIDENT CHADt'OCBN'S RESIGNATION.

The bodies were mangled, torn and thrown a great distance, and the clothing torn off. The funeral of four of the victims was held this afternoon and was the largest ever seen in Hardin county.

A row ensued and as the captain was afterwards pnshing against the lock gates to open them, Golden drew a razor and rushed upon him cutting his throat badly. Golden was arrested. Raferty's recovery is doubtful. FOREIGN NEWS. TURKISH MATTERS.

London, July 7. The Times says editorially The concessions oCterritory to Greece and Montenegro and the introduction of reforms into other Turkish provinces must be persistently urged as indispensible to the demands of Europe. Let this combined course of patience and firmness be pursued and let it be clearly understood if necessary that stronger measures will be unhesitatingly adopted, and we may reasonably expect that self-interest alone will induce the Sultan to give way.

Among the recent inventions in dentistry is the filling of teeth without pain by the application of 2fa-boli" a new discovery which, applied in liquid form to a sensitive tooth, prevents all pain.

He is a staunch Republican, of much influence, and with many friends, who would before this have been glad to send him to the Senate if he had permitted the use of his name. At this time, it is true, his name had not been whispered, so far' as we are aware, in connection with the nom- tin miuiu icu uiiauiea in its presentation, and then we suppose only by two or ln.ltA. three gentlemen but the Convention chose to exercise its power, in" placing him upon the ticket. It was a fair and square nomination, to which no exception "can be taken upon personal or party grounds, and as such it is entitled to, and will of course have, the hearty support of the party.

This would, it is true, save the Re; ublicans of Burlington much trouble over tli a Senatorship but why confine it to that. Tuch a committee (which, of course, should be a standing committee, with, say, some Jericho gentleman for chairman) might as well determine whether or no Burlington should have any County offices, and, if so, what, and who should be the nominee or nominees therefor. Under this arrangement the Republicans of Burlington could dismiss all further anxiety about, or concern in, County affairs. The Accident on the Addison Railroad. The accident at the bridge across the lake opposite Ticonderoga on Monday evening was caused by the breakage of a heavy hinge connected with the draw, letting the tender down into the water, but leaving the engine hanging-in nearly a perpendicular position.

Captain Woodbury then continued, speak ing in opposition to the so-called one-term rule, and claiming that Burlington should have for Senator the man she wanted.

Judge nalbert thought that the one-term rule was established in 1873 and that should not be abrogated without the conseu of the convention. It was not a question of person but of principle. Hon. F. C.

Kennedy of Burlington said that it was a wrong rule when under it a good man could not be sent to the Lcgisia ture. simply because he had been there be fore. If there is a one-term rule, firmly cs tablislied, why does the convention spend its time in this manner, discussing the mat ter. i ii. JN.

afternoox session. The convention was called to order shortly after 3 o'clock. Capt. U. A.

Wheelock- lion, oamuei Huntington said that in Washington and Caledonia counties the plan of Bending a man to the Senate for the second time had been tried, and had given those counties an influence in the Senate, much greater than they could have other wise secured.
