exemplifed in the wooden manufacture uh-

of duty occasioned a greatly Increased lmpor-

facturer was often obliged TO sell his broad

CLOYENFOOT ATLAST.

The democratic convention Of Windlam
County in this State, recently passed the
following resolution:
Resolved, That VIC do highly approve Of
the nrinciples of the New Tariff which has
recently passed the House of Representatives
as being more just and at the same time more
beneficial to the interests Of The great sosE
of the people Of this State and of the conn-
try al large, than the Tariff Of 1872.
And now let it be perfectly understood
that this resolution is The mere. echo OF the
Locofoco press and leaders in the State oi
Vermont. The Democrat. the Patriot, the
Star and the Age, and the Republican, speak
the same language in favor of tariff which
Is avowedIy surrender Of the great prinoi-
pie O, protection 10 Free Trade, and an
abandonment of American industry in favor

man from distance express the opinion that
they were not inferior to those he had been
accustomed TO hear for many years past al
one of our oldest and most celebrated Collie
ses. We could easily name some Of the
pieces that were of a very superior order,
but It might be inyidious to make distinctions
where all were good. We will merely add
that the class did honor to themselves and
their instructors.
We were not little disappointed that Mr..
Clark, the candidate for the second decree.
was unfortunate in his recollection. From
the high reputation of Mr.. C. as scholar
and thinker, we anticipated performance of
no common order, and judging from what
was spoken, our hopes and expectations
would have been fully answered.
The Grafton OF Mr.. Drake before the Asso-
ciated Alumni was well-written, well-con-
sidered and highly creditable performance.
We thong hit that the Address was rather long,
but we will not be captious on that point.
The Society is much indebted to Mr.. D. for
conserving, on so short notice, to deliver The
Address.
The poem by Mr.. SAKE gave universal
satisfaction and delight. His audience were
pleased with the harmonious flow of his verse
were graiifed with the business OF his satire,
and often convulsed with the keenness Of his
wit. 1t was al brilliant performance, su-
perior to any we have heard on sim
liar occasions, aud gratifying 10 the
pride of the society. We should like
10 give particular analysis of this talent
ed production, but as it is soon to be given
to the public we deem it unnecessary. We
will only predic. that public sentiment will
stamp it'd lrork of geniHs.
