Attention, Wings Of Old windham /!

We publish this week an official call for a Coun.
ty Convention nj NEwFAsE, on Wednesday, The 25fh
Of June We hardly deem il necessary to remind
the Wings of Old windham of the importance of a
full attendance. The Pokites and Birney- men are
drumming up their forces for vigorous campaign.
The Locos have complained that, during the late
administration, the resources Of the General Gov
eminent patronage were not entirely in their hands
But now that Tyler is out Of the way, and the To-
cos have every thing they desire under the new nd-
ministraton, they will make desperate push in
Vermont this year. They rely on making diver
sion among the Wings in favor of the third party,
so as to secure plurality of votes for Loco Sena-
tors. But let not the Wings be humbugged by any
such scheme Let the Loco Demagogues advocate
Texas-annexaton and slavery, TO please their mas
tcrs and the dispenser of government patronage at
Washington, and at the same time tickle the ears
Of Aboltonists with their humbuggery, but let
Wings and Wing Aboltionists be OH their guard.
The two great measures that now divide the Amer
lean people, and before which every other question
sinks into insgnfcance, are the annexation OF
Texas and the plan now openly put on foot at
Washington for the destruction Of the present Tar
if Vermont has a deep interest in these matters.
Vigilance is now, more emphatically than ever, the
price of liberty.
Wings OF Windham County, we hope you will
heed the call Of your County Committee, and be on
the ground at New Fame on the 18th inst, in such
numbers, and with such spirits as will show the
demagogues who endeavor 10 divide, in order that
they NAV conquer you, the futilty of their hopes

An old Fox in a Quandary.

The New York Express had the boldness TO ask
the venerable Richie Of the official newspaper at
Washington, the union, but much better known
as the editor Of the Richmond Enquirer, what he
meant by Jcffersonian Republicansrn.' Richie
has long been noted for his adrotness in getting out
Of political difficulties, and he has lost of his
reputation in this instance. The old Fox knowing
right well the innumerable forms and colors that
his favorite Virginia chameleon has assumed, had
too much discretion 10 answer the Express directly
and seriously, but thought it expedent to uf-
feet SURPRISE and pretend to be nsulted at such
question. Why, the cunning old politician would
look well in attempting 10 answer seriously ques-
ton he could not answer, without rendering himself
extremely ridiculous without confessing that du-
ring his political career, he had been on both sides
Of nearly every prominent system Of national poll
tics, upon which the American people have been
divided for forty years. Such confession, MIR
Richie would not be very likely to make. 1t bet
ter suits his taste TO camor about "Jefersonan Re-
pubcanism of the old Virginia school," Believing
the editor of the Express TO be Dozen caster, we
were somewhat surprised at his asking the ques
ton. When John Holmes was alive, he used to
amuse the Downeasteis with frequent anecdotes H.
Illustrative Of modern democracy, and its system Of
tactics. One of his anecdotes runs, If we rightly
remember, something like this A good old thrift
ty farmer in the State of Maine, once observed that
his meat was diminishing rather faster than usual,
especially Of nights. lie therefore took il into his
head to keep secret watch one night. As the dark
hour Of midnight approached the Maine farmer
was at his post While silently listening, he heard
a noise in his cellar, whereupon he cried out,
"Who's there ?" No answer "Whos there ~
still no answer. "What are you doing in my eel
lar?" Nothing but his own hollow echoes was
heard. "What is your name ?" All is profound
silence "Why do mt you speak," A faint, trem
bling voice reached his from a remote corner Of
the cellar, 81 did MT knOo ,ohdt 10 say" The Ex-
press ought 10 have known that Thomas Richie
would have been at a loss TO "know what to say"
if he had seriously attempted reply to his ques-
ton. We hope the Express will be little more
careful in future, how he troubles the venerable
".Noas uerrOns' with such questions

Dickinson vs.. Rro,nn. et al.

This was an action brought by the Plaintiff
against the listers of the town Of Readsboro, for
putting his property into the Grand List of that
town, he claiming to live in the town of Whining
ton The real object of the suit, was, TO settle the
boundary line between the two towns. 1t was re.
ierred TO John s. Robinson, who reported that the
Plaintiff lived on lot that was claimed to be with
in the limits of Readsboro, and that from 1908 to
the present time, Readsboro had exercised juris-
diction the premises, and that the inhabitants
of the lot had uniformly voted and paid taxes in
Readsboio, and had performed the duties and en-
joyed the privileges OF citizenship in that town
He further reported that the Plaintiff offered evil
dence, tending to prove that the lot within the
chartered limits of Wilmington which evidence
was rejected by the referee. To this decision the
Plaintiff excepted.
The Court held that the evidence was rightfully
rejected. The undisputed exercise of jurisdiction
by town, for so great length of time, fixed its
jurisdictionaL limits.

mill Of the defendant in Winhall The defendants
plead that on the last day of said June at said MILL
'ney rendered and turned ont sufficient quantity
oil lumber to pay the balance then due on said note
Of $3.50. Upon this, issue was taken. The de.
iendantS testimony tended to prove that on SAID

ed, and were found to contain over 5000 feet. AT
the first measurement the piles were all measured
before shutdown, but the measurements were not
footed up, and with the plaintiffs name, marked on
the piles until after sun.down

This was an action on Guaranty. 1t appeared
from the evidence that Erastus C. Ramsdcll, a son
OF defendant, was in trade in Wardsboro, and that
defendant promised plaintiff that if he would sign
notes with his son, he would see him harmless
Prf did sign notes,and has since been compelled to
pay them. The defendant contended the promise
was TO pay the debt of another, and not being in
writing, was void by the statute of frauds. The
Court held that it was an original undertaking, not
collateral, and was therefore obligatory upon the
defendant. Verdict for plaintiff.
For plaintiff, }. Z. Butler e.

Of those bands at Montpelier last summer, while
the Wings were route to attend the State Con-

enterprise and kind feelings of the Locos Of Mont
pelier, for the edificaion of the Wings. Is your

The Detroit Daily Advertiser has the fol-
lowing Political summary, which Gas the Al
manacs say was calculated for the meridian of
Michigan, but will answer for this and the ad-
joining States:
we have got the funniest anti-bank party
in Michigan that the world ever saw. They
chartered every bank that ever existed in the
State. They passed the first suspension act
that was ever enacted here, and provided for
The organization of some thirty or forty new
banks with the privilege of not paying specie.
They have had the official supervision of the
banks, with brief interval, ever since the
State government was established They have
used and borrowed the banks, both individual
~ and as public officers, under all their admin
istration. Their leading men are presidents,
directors, attorneys, and employers of banks
And yet the moment one of them fails or sus-
ponds, they raise terrible outcry, proclaim
themselves genuine anti-bank men, and de-
nounce the Wings like mad men. 1t was
first rate trick once, but it has been played a
little too often now. The people are begin
ming to understand this stop-ihief cry of Loco
foco larceners.'
