l VESTPOR T. At a meeting of the parish of the Holy. Trinity, this week, it was voted to extend a call to Rev. Mr. McKenzie, of New Windsor, N. Y. The vote stood 18 in favor to 7 against, and 110w the minority claim that there was sharp practice in the way the meeting was conducted by the friends of Mr. Mc- Kenzie. This argues well for the fu- ture. ' Mr. E. N. Sipperly has just complet- ed a well on the premises of Mr. E. H.

Hal’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in do- ing its work.
