company of the st. Louis Legion was paid off
yesterday. The wages of officers and privates
for about three months service, amounted to
between twenty-eight and thirty thousand

Ns-tS'"''t"P NNN'''N-
0FsWe have heard ofseveral instances in
Vermont ofthe discontinuance or partial sus-
penson of important business operations
since and as a consequence ofthe passage of
Folks Tariff. The Vcrgennes Vermonter
riyes the following account of the disastrous
effects of Polkism in the City of Vergennes;
Effects of the New Tariff.
It is not without much regret that we are
rompelled to announce the fact that the eX-
lensye Iron manufactures situated OH our
falls, are about ceasing their operations.
large number of men have already been dis
missed from the employ ofthe Vergeunes J.
ron Company, and the remainder are only
IN he retained until the stock now on hand
shall have been exhausted; which will require
hut few weeks. The business of the Bos-
ron Company will close next Saturday: when
tbe hands. numbering between thirty and for
~, will be discharged.
The suspension of these works will be
serious blow not only to the large number of
individuals directly interested, but TO the gen
eraI prosperity ofour city and vicinity. I'm
der their influence our population has mate
rally increascd--a large number of new
dwellings have already been built and occu-
profitable market has been afforded TO farm
ers in adjoining towns for hundreds of thou
sands of cords of wood, in the form of char
coal-hundrcds of persons as overscers,
clerks, torgenien, monlders, choppers, golfers,
transfers. boatmen, Sc, have been furnish
ed with employment; and thus the market in
this vicinity, been greatly increased for the
wheat, corn, oats, potatoes, beef, pork, butter,
cheese, and other products of the farmer
And in payment for this vast amount of labor
and material little short of One Hundred
Thousand Dollars Of Cash have been annually
paid out, and circulated in this immediate Vi
entity.
OF these great advantages we are to be at
once and inevitably deprived, by means Of a
wild and ruinous Locoioco experiment. A
comfortable thought truly.
Thus does this slave-rdden administration
in the full blast of Southern power and policy
sacrifice by wholesale the interests of the
North. o Locofocoism, it is at least salts
faction TO consider that, in all human proba-
bity, thy days are numbered!

THE TRUE Carr. Rev. lothian Sewall, a.
ged 80 years, known as "Father Sewall," ) of
ChestervilIe, Maine, was at Fish River, in the
Aroostook country, the last of October, 1914,
when the Presidential Election was at hand.
He started in his old wagon, just in season to
ride over 200 miles of rugged forest roads, so
as to cast his vote for HENRY CLAY. Unhap-
PLY, that vote did not effect much for the coun
try, but it was a great satisfaction to himself.
When the tdings of Mexican War, butohery
and famine in the South west, rapidly swell
ing National Debt, Tariff destruction, Sub
Treasury financiering, &C., are borne to him
in his humble cottage, he is able proudly
and thankfully to say,
"Thou canst not say Ibid it! Never shake
Thy CORY locks at meg"
Surely, to a Christian, or any one ofhuinane
feelings and unsullied conscience, this is
worth more than months hard labor. Yet
there are men who call themselves Christians
and would fain be esteemed good citizens,
who will allow personal Inconvenience, or
private pique, or business engagements, to
prevent their punctual g. uniform attendance
at the polls. Shame on them.--.M Y Tri-

A HUNDRED MILLION DEBT! The Com

cost $10O,00O,OOO. The debt ofTexas, which
we assumed to pay by taking her into the u
MON, dwindles into iusignifcance when conf
pared with the expenses ofthe war which her
annexation provoked. With the money that is
to be worse than wasted in this war, debts of
the insotvent States might be extinguished,

GENERAL SOUP.

serious question arises, Messrs. Editors, since

which mode conduces best TO The qualification OF
