THE VERMONT JUDGES.

The new members of the Bench-Judges AL
dis, Pierpont, and Barrett, are universally es-
teemed by the Bar of the State, for their ex-
tensive legal requirements, their sound judg-
ment, their laborious attendance to duty, and,
what is no small item, their dignifed and yet
courteous and pleasing manners. The expecta-
tions of their most sanguine friends have been
realized.
The other members of the Bench are tno well
known to need comment. 1t is no disparage-
ment to any, the dead or living. to say that our
Judiciary both collectively and individually, has
never been more able and efficient than at the
present time, commanding the confidence of the
people at home, while it is esteemed and hon
ored abroad.
am glad the salary of these hard working
and useful public servants has been raised to
$500. If it had been $4,000 the act would
have met with general approval. Being almost
constantly away from home, the expenses of the
Judges OF necessity are quite large, while their
private business must suffer for the want of per-
sonal supervision. The people of Vermont are
wealthy, and he mistakes their character who
supposes they would desire to drive q hard bar
gain with these men of toll. The laborer is
worthy of his hire The enquiry should not be,
how cheap can we get the service performed
hut, what is fair and reasonable compensation
for the labor bestowedp
By the way, an amusing anecdote is in circu-
lation here, which think conveys high COM
pliment to the grave and reverend Judges of
the Court One of the noted ones for wisdom
and virtue, who lets his light shine daily in the
House of Representatives, was passing the Free
Church the other day, where the Court is hold
ing its session, (the Court House being occupi-
ed by the Senate,) and had his curiosity excited
to know what was going on within Accord
ingly he entered, andthere beheld the Judges
sitting in austere gravitylupon an elevated plat
form, listening, as grave Judges should, to
learned limb of the law The member sur
veyed the scene with considerable interest for
few minutes, his eyes bent admiringly upon the
venerable heads of the Judges. On going out
of the door he remarked to bystander, They
are the finest looking body Of ministers have
ever seen. Can you tell me, SIR said he, who
that venerable looking elder is, sitting at the
right hand Of the MODERATOR Our readers
will easily conjecture that the answer designated
Judge Poland as that venerable looking mem

THE MYSTERIOUS GAMBLER.
BY AN OLD STAGER.

have made several passages up the Missis-
sippi and Ohio rivers, and never without seeing
on board the steamers more or less professional
gamblers. 1t is n thriving business on the boats
where time hangs heavily on the heads of the
passengers, and the blacklegs carry off large
sums OF money. They usually remain on board
but day or two-long enough to have their
true character exposed
These gentry had become such an intolerable
nuisance that the captains of the boats did not
knowingly permit one to come on board and
not unirequently brace of blacklegs were land
ed in the woods when their profession was dis
covered
b During one of my trips the boat put in at
the mouth Of the Arkansas river and as usual
took stroll on shore. / heard the bell for
the departure of the steamer, and fastened back
to the landing. AS was on my way, | was
oyertaken by gentleman with broad brim-
med hat, green goggles, and white neck-cloth,
tugging along with large valise.
81 am rather late, am / not ?" said he, as he
joined me.
"True enough, SIR" l replied, respectfully,
for the gentleman was clergyman, Methodist
itinerant, | supposed.
any valse is rather heavy, and / feared l
should lose the boat"
"Let me help you carry it, sir"
He accepted my civil offer, and I took hold
of the valisc, which was certainly loaded very
heavy for Methodist parson. In few mo-
ments We reached the steamer, and passed on
board; but my new acquaintance had accom-
plished but half the distance, when the plank
canted, and he was thrown into the river. For
tunately for him, was prompt in my efforts to
rescue him, and he was Immediately drawn on
board, with no other detriment than thorough
ducking.
My friend, whom, as never learned his name,
l shall have to call Rev. Mr.. Goggles, retired to
vacant state-room. 1t was now nearly dark
and did not see him again that night.
AS usual, in the evening, there was table in
the cabin, devoted to cards; in word, there
was gambling without stint. No one objected
to the practice, so long as it was not done by
professional blacklegs. l never played but l
often stood by the table to observe the progress
of the game, and study the looks of the players,
as they were agitated by the tickle changes of a
moment.
While was thus watching them, observed
on the opposite side of the table well-dressed
gentleman, who was regarding with eager inter-
est the plays of the gamblers He manifested
a desire to engage in the place of one who had
been "ceaned out"
II was soon apparent that the new conner was
a skilful player, and time after time, he swept
the board Of all that had been staked. In q

do not believe in the proprety of leaving
the young to the unrestricted and unregulated
exercise of their love for recreation and social
enjoyment, nor on the other hand, do believe
in the wisdom or practicability of its entire re-
preston and crushing out But do believe
in such combination Of authority and sympa-
thy, of wise restraint where necessary, and
general encouragement and guidance within
proper limits,--as may be made, under Him,
who can alone give success to human effort, an
important means Of promoting temperance and
moral health of the young and inexperienced.
! would throw open, as far possible to this
class, the curious and beautiful in Art, Science
and Literature-the telescope revelations of
Astronomy-thew wonders of Geology-the lith-
ography of the Eternal finger on the primal
formations. | would open to them new sources
of enjoyment in the studies of Natural History
and Botany, and show them the almost magical
results Of Experimental Chemistry. l would
give them every opportunity to listen to lee
lures and discourses from variously- gifted ora
tors and thinkers.
would encourage reading circles-healthful
sports and exercises and excursions amid the
serene beauty of Nature, so well calculated to
axalt the mind towards that which st. Angus
tine speaks of as the
"Eternal Beauty always new and always DID,"
l would promote Libraries and Debating Clubs,
whatever, in short, promises to unite social en-
joyment with the culture of the mind and heart
and the healthful development of a sound mind
in sound body. l do not undervalue other
instrumentalities, especially the higher ones of
a religious nature. But at the same time be-
lieve that cheerful, social Christian is better
than sour and ascetic one. That good old
Puritan, Richard Baxter, used to regret his own
melancholy and gloomy temperament, arising
mainly from bodily infrmity, and in the latter
part of his life strove to introduce more
cheerful disposition among his religious friends.
"True religion" he says, dis not matter of
fears, tears and scruples it doth principally
consist in obedience, love and JOY"
For myself, so far from advocating laxity of
moral discipline, l strongly deprecate the IL
cense and weak indulgence which prevails at
the present time. l believe in law and order
parental authority the unacceptable RESPONSE
biities of the adult members Of society in re-
spect to the younger. But wisdom is profta-
bic to direct and it is by no means wise to
disregard, even for a good object, the natural
laws which govern mind and matter. Unnatu-
raj repression in one direction is sure to lead to
a corresponding protuberanee of deformity in
another. The folly of the Flathead Indian
mother who binds with bark the forehead Of
her infant until the frontal portion of the head
is forced backward in idiotio prominence, finds
parallel in all efforts for moral reform which
overlook the great laws of our being.

OF cabinet is one of the best. He picks up
shells and pebbles and stones, all odds and ends,
nothing comes amiss; and if you give him
pair of scissors and little gum there is no end
OF the labels he will paste on, and the hours he
may innoccntly spend sorting and arranging
A bottle of liquid gum is an invaluable re-
source for various purposes, nor must you mind
though he varnish his nose and fingers and
clothes, (Which he will do of course,) if he does
nothing worse. A cheap point-box, and some
enngrayings to color, is another; and if you will
give nm some real paint and putty to paint and
putty his boats and cars, he is a made man.
All these things make trouble-to be sure
they debut Charley is to make trouble, that
is the nature of the institution you are only to
choose between safe and wholesome trouble,
and the trouble that comes at last like a whirl-
wind. God bless the little fellow, and send us
all grace to know what to do with him.

A WAY.v

We have faith in old proverbs full surely,
For wisdom has traced what they tell,
And truth may be drawn up as purely
From them as 1t may from II well"
Let us question the thinkers and doers,
And hear what they honestly say
And you'll find they believe, like bold wooers,
III 'where there's will there's a way"
The hills have been high for mans mounting,
The woods have been dense for his axe;
The stars have been thick for his counting,
The sands have been wide for his track;
The sea has been deep for his diving,
The poles have been broad for his sway,
But brnvely he's proved in his striving,
That where there's will there's way.
Have you vices that ask destroyer?
Or passions that need your control?
Let reason become your employer,
And your body be ruled by your soul,
Fight OH, though We bleed in the trial,
Resist with all strength that We may
Ye may conquer sins host by denial,
For "where there's Il will there's II way"
Have you poyerty's pinching to cope with?

Only eau up spirit to cope with,
And dawn may come out of the night
Oh, much may be done by defying
The ghosts Of despair and dismay;
And much may be done by relying
On "Where there's u will there's way"
Should you see nfar of that worth winning,
Set out on the journey with trust;
And neer heed if your path, at beginning,
Should be among bramblcs and dust;
Though it is but by footsteps we do it,
And hardships may hinder and STAY,
Keep n heart, and be sure you'll get through it,

THE SKATER.


THE SKATER.
The skater lightly laughs and glides,
Cnknowingly that beneath the ice
Whereon he carves his fair device,
stifiened corpse in silence stands.
1t glareth upward at his play;
Its cold, blue, rigid fingers steal
Beneath the treadings Of his heel;
1t floats along and floats away.
He has not seen its horror pass;
His heart is hlithe; the village hears
His distant daughters; he careers
In festive waltz athwart the glass.
We are the skaters. We who skim
The surface Of Liie's solemn flood,
And drive, with gladness in our blood,
daring dance from brim to brim.
Our feet are swift, our iaces burn,
Our hopes aspire like soaring birds;
The world takes courage from our words,
And sees the golden time return.
But ever near us, silent cold,
Float those who bounded from the bank
With eager hearts, like US, and sank
Because their feet were overbOld.
They sank through breathing holes of vice,
Through treacherous sheens of unbeef;
They know not their despair and grief;
Their hearts and minds are turned to ice.

Tue ENGLISH PRINCESS RoYAL-The Princess
Roya! of England is thus described by an Amer
ican, who saw her recently at railway station
"The train contained the Princess and oil the
little princes aud princesses, together with the
requisite number of tutors, governesses, lack
eys, and SO forth. A young lady was lollng
out OF a window, and evidently taking very
supercilous view OF society as seen al railway
depot The officers of the establishment all re-
moved their hats aud went along the platform
bowing like Chinese mandarins The Young
lady aforesaid, Alexandria Victoria, ct cetera,
made no sign Of recognition for these civilites
A number of small royal highnesses were tug
ging at her skirts to get peep out of the win
dow, but their royal sister took no notice of
their appeals. The princess is said TO possess
some wit, OF a snappish turn, aud will no doubt,
make as economic and prolific wife as her re-
spccted mother Meanwhile the princess is as
homely in appearance as the bust Of George the
Third on a continental cola. and, in fact she
bears striking resemblance in features to that
nip-and-mutton-eating monarch. Providence
has never been lavish of the fatal gift of beauty
in connection with the House OF Guelph.

TEE SHOOTING AFFRAY AT GOLD HuL.-The
account we gave last week of the shooting af-
fray at Geld Hill was incorrect in one impor-
tsns particular. Ridgely was not instantly
killed as reported, but severely wounded. The
intelligence Of the shooting was brought to Ne
vada on Tuesday evening, a few minutes be-
fore our paper went to press. We were not
able to find the man who brought the news, and
as it was universally believed in town that
Ridgely was dead, we stated such to be the fact.
Tyree gave himself up to the authorities and
was examined on Friday before Justice Ander-
animation, established the following facts:-
Ridgely took passage in the Alpha stage on
Tuesday morning, got off at the White Cloud,
and walked down to Gold Hill, being armed
with revolver and having a carpet bag in his
hand. On his arrival in town he was met by
Tyree, who was armed with a double-barrel
shot gun, loaded with buck-shot or pistol balls.
They drew up their weapons about the same
time and fired, Tyree's gun being discharged
first. Tyree was not hurt, but Ridgely fell TO
sne Bfouho, p"uiy Mouhusu. ne imheuiateiy
jumped up aud started to run, when Tyree dis
charged the other barrel at him, several of the
bullets taking effect in his back and shoulder.
His left arm was badly shattered, and one or
two bullets entered the body in front. When
Ridgcly fred, he drew up his left arm as a rest
for his pistol. the carpet-bag was in his left
hand and covered the vital parts, otherwise he
would probably have been killed on the spot.
1t was reported in town that Ridgely had start
ed for Gold Hill, for the purpose of shooting
Tyrec, and that friend of the latter started
up on horseback, passed the stage, and warned
him Of his danger This fact, however, was not
in the evidence. Rdgely has been lying in a
critical condition, and his recovery is doubtful.
