NMHE Phenomena of Towards selling so

the tax assessors of oar town who said if
we cannot stop his go-a.hcad system we
will Carb him from ovcrtrading by putting
on the check Tax veto power, and assessed
me for my faculty as merchant the sum Of
Si00--whcn the average Of the merchants
IN The State rates at not to exceed probably
$40. Now this could not stand without
endeavorng to Increase my business, for,
according to my rule, remarkable and
extraordinary times require and demand
extra and tremendous eXer,ions to sur
mount and overcome the difficulties. ]
however now thank them for the impetus
that produced the effect. | entered my
protest against their tyraDy, throwcd for,
pie, and pressed ahead with an electric
speed Of which never before knew myself
capable, aud thought could sell as many
goods here as could be disposed of in any
store in The world if only had the goods
and could find the buyers. SO I went off
to New York, inspired into my Agents the
great and important necessity of action and
Of the immediate necessity Of procuring
without delay for present use such materials
and articles as would be first wanted,
and had them forwarded by the fastest
Steam-Boa lines. and returned myself
via the Hudson, Saratoga, Lake George
and Champlan to this incompatible
beauty of beautiful places on earth,
to be ready for the celebration Of the
Green Mountain State grand literary jubi-
lee week, which we are to have soon in
consequence of the location mere Of hcUui-
versily of Vermont, the Episcopal institute,
the two Female Semjnarles and High
School, when we shall haye the parents,
guardians, friends and visitors concentrated
here from far and near, and as inhabitants
open their houses to friends, so the Grand
Bazaar Cheap Cash Store will be fitted,
furnished and put in fine grand style for
the admiration of customers and visitors to
town, and will be illuminated in the eve
ming and make such show and display as
NAV be suitable for the occasion.
As in the spring took nothing extra for
the loss of Is per cent on my $50 Windsor

Mr., STACY, SIR 1T is not pleasure
to Us to write through your columns as we
now do, but we feel it duty to do it.
You probably have often heard it remarked
that the farmer was an honorable dealing
man, and sir, we have no desire, or dispo.
sltlon, in any way to contradict this true
remark; but as nearly all rules have
exceptions, we think this remark NAV be
considered among that number, and applied
to some few of the above menti oned class
in the vicinity of Burlington. We have in
many instances heard complaints, where
verbal contracts, between purchaser and
seller, have been made of neat cattle &C.,
and where honor and conscience were all
that could compel the parties to perform
according to the contract, both Of the
delivery and reception, and when the latter
had failed to perform. We have had 40
instance of this kind occur recently that
somewhat excited our feelings, in neigh
boring town Of --, distance of some
six miles from this village. We purchased
Of Mr.. - certain number of fat sheep
to be taken at a specified time. We went
after them day or two before the expira-
ton OF the time, that there need not be
delay on our part, with the money to re-
celve them, OF which we have witness.
We also have witness that we had made
such bargain with The gentleman. Be
tween the time Of selling to US, and the
specified time that we were to take them,
he again sold them to a gentleman from
! the south for an advance of two or three
dollars if We are rightly informed, and we
presume we are. This man made no effort
to satisfy US in any way. He is called a
respectable man by all that we have heard
speak Of him, and was considered so BY US
before this affair took place. lie has been
a member Of the Legislature two years,
and seleclman Of the town 10 which he now
resides, as we have understood. We shall
forbcar mentioning his name at this time,
but If lie does not come forward and settle
our travelling fees, we shall in your next
expose his name to the public, that others
may not be deceived in like manner.

McMinvi'le, distance of seven miles, and
back again on the same day. and this too
after he had reached 100 years of age
retaining the perfect upright form and firm

Thus lived and died one of the most
remarkable men Of the age. He was wit
ness to more remarkable events, perhaps,
than any man living. What revolutions
have rolled over the earth since he was
born! He was almost coeval with our
colonial history. He was an old man when
this nation commenced its career. He has
seen empires rise and fall, thrones dcmo.
isbed, and new Kingdoms spring to exist

race have lived aud died. But the old
man has gone to his fathers at last.
Peace be to his memory, and may the grass
