Unlike too many whom Vermont has
honorcd With a seat IN Congress, M.
Meaebam Is grateful To ihe people who
haye trusted and honor,d him. And wo

We presume be- will receive a unanimous
nomination, and an election by a large
majority.
Oh the dnsi page Of the HrRALp
will be found the Japan Treaty aud the
Reciprocity Treaty. The latter needs
close examination as L viii effect the in-
tercsts Of the people Of Vermont In the
event Of It's ratification, II has been the
object Of certain persons 10 England aud
Canada, and also in the cities in this coun-
try. during the last i've years, to remove
the Customs establishment, between tac
United Dtatcs and Canada, in order to
open a market for Canadian produce, nnd
10 increase the carrying trade Of the L. $.
II Is q specious proposition but meets with
Indifference rather than favor from the peo-
pie.
The adoption Of this Treaty will open a
mafke, for the Marble and slate Of Yer
mont, but beyond that 1t is difficult to see
what Canada will take Of Us in any large
measure. The Provinces produce more
gTnin,bnttcr, and cheese IN proportion to the
number Of inhabitants than any other conn
try in the world. They will compete tx
iensively IN our markets with our farmers,
but viii open no new markets for orr agri-
cultural products or our manufactures. OF
what use would be the free navigation Of
the st. Lawrence to us? Canada did not
prosper with a monopoly Of the carrying
trade on THIS river. When we gave Cana
di the privilege Of using our sea ports, du.
y free, then She began ~ prosper. No
one thing ever operated more iayorahly 10
Canada than The carrying ofbonlod goods,
duty free, through our territory. II the ST.
Lawrence Is useless 10 Canada, what rood
Will It do usF Win the freedom Of fishing
be Of any great advantage TO a., if we must
allow British fishermen TO 6sh in our wa.
tiers, aud sell their fish Ia our m,rsets on
the same footing as American fishermen;
However, reciprocity, as now proposed,
NIGH WORK well, but the reciprocity which
We desire Is A|SNrxArtoS. II we canno,
have that, then remove al duties and let
our manufactured goods into Canada in re-
turn for its agricultural products.
- INV Bar nnE.-We have seen
the model Of a New Hive Invented by
Mr. Sylvester Davis, Of Clarcmoni, \. H..
and patented last year. It has taken Sow
orni premiums At fairs, and received the frs,
premium At the Crystal Palace.
1t IS designed 10 prevent svauuing by
adding ne~ myos 10 the OBJ one when the
old Que Is too full. The hives stand in vii
ages Of four on a platform made Of wire
netting, through which falls the filth from
the hive, ana which allows Of the free in-
gress Of air. Above the hives are boxes
where honey Is deposited IN the season Of
h9wers, free from bread and Young bees.
Beneath the wire net work aye slides On
which the 9TH is removed. Beneath these
l. a combination Of drawers and slides 10
aid Ia feeding bees, and IN ventilation. b
p4aeing the hives IN contact and by putting
small and late sEarns together, We should
think that the bees would suGtr less from
cold weather than IN solitary hives. Some
times the ssarms dic ia the winter. even
