THE BEGGAR WoMAN-We met bqggar wo-
man in Sacramento. Her face was wrnkled and
white lines were scattered through her coal black
hair. She was begging; people Stunned her, for
she was meanly clad and her look betokened that
the curse of poverty was upon her. A big church
stood opposite, and bell was in the cupola to
ring the followers of Christ to prayer, but to the
beggar woman the church looked cold and
merciess as an e-shp She walked along
slowly, looking narrowly in peoples faces for a
beam of charity. Numbers passed, but instinct
told her that they were hard hearted, and she did
not accost them. large portly man stood in
his door; the woman crept up to him and said
something in low tone; he took some money
from his pocket, dropped it in her hand and turn
ed away saying, there goes another dollar gone
to hell = But with ali the mans profanity and
apparent annoyance, he felt better for having
given the dollar, for there was something in the
woman's face that convinced him that she was

and was succeeded by brief remarks from candi-

To our Friends.

Another season of plenty and happiness has
passed, and the good old custom of returning
thanks for the good favors which kind Parent
is pleased to bestow, is at hand The season of
comparative quiet, with its long winter evenings
of social and neral recreation, Has arrived
During this season we spend much time in read
ing and planning for the active duties Of the
coming seed time Our children are amused
and instructed by the teachings of the day school
and evening readings. At this time there is a
comparative quiet, and our people east about
for their store of reading for the winter. And
it is at this time we wish to call their attention
to the Freeman, now in its fifteenth year of pub
LEGATION, and enjoying prosperity highly fat,
tering to its proprietor. First of all, the pco-
pie look for a ns,cs- paper-one that gives them
all the information of passing events, and the
improvements, experiments and progress in the
social and moral reforms. Lastly they look for
the incubation of wholesome truths, moral ideas
and that what there is of amusement shall he
of the choicest selection. This we believe can
not be found more fully combined than in the
pages of the GREEN MOUNTAIN FREEMAN. 1t is,
as it ever has been, our aim and object to make
it the Family Paper of the State, and no efforts
will be spared the coming year to add to its in
terest and usefulness.
The Farmer need not be told that it is neces-
sary for him to acquaint himself with home pro-
auctions and experiments, and thatcouse9uently
no paper is so useful as the home paper contain
ing these instructions.
The Politician sees the advance step taken in
the political world, and when we say that nc
paper in the State, except the Freeman, has had
the courage to defend more radical and deci
ded position upon the question Of Slavery, he
needs not be told if we wish to aid the advance
ment it can best be done through these columns
and here its advocacy will be most likely to BE-
found. The Freem IN was established az the or
gan Of the old Liberty Guard, andwe are happy
to learn from those grown Old in Freedom
wars" that it maintains the position, and ii
accomplishing the purposes of its creation. Il
will continue to advocate independence OF ac
ton and strict regard for principles, regard
less of men OF party. 1t will maintain thu
principles Of the Republican party as declared
by the Declaration of our Nation 'slRdepcndenc
and handed down and promulgated by th
friends of Freedom to this time. Especially will
it request careful examination of the motive
which led to the honorable measures recent
before our legislature. In them twe,witness tn
browning effort Of success to true Republica
principles, and congratulate onr friends apo
this victory.
We wish to add that our thanks are due t
our friends through whose kind ekertions the in
creased circulation of the Freeman is mainl
owing, and ask that at this time they wills
liclt their friends and neighbors TO q trial Of il
worth.

The Close of the Legislature.

We have not time, nor space if we had time,
to 60 into general summary of all the proceed
ings of the Legislature, which, as will be seen
from the record, adjourned on Friday morning
last, but will say that there was an unusally
large number of private and small bills Of no
general Importance to the public, which neces-
sarily kept the Assembly here longer than usual
and besides there were several intricate subjects
for Investigation which took much of the time
Of the leading members, and hence the want of
despatch which would otherwise have character
lied the deliberations. Of the last night of the
session we have to say that aside from some in
discreet and i'll tempered remarks of the gentle
men from Brattleboro, Vergennes and Rutland,
the deliberations of both Houses were charae-
terized by dignity worthy Of Vermont.
Since the above was penned we have received
q copy of the Burlington 1imes in which the
editor, probably speaking by authority Of his
town, proceeds to expatiate upon the matter,
and says that the responsibility for the neglect
of the Legislature to appropriate for completing
thesState House rests upon Montpelier, and that
Burlington has had no hand In the matter.
Without stopping to discuss the matter at this
time, we would like to ask what the "son of
Burlington " had in his head in the appoint
ment of all the Committees? and would inform
the Times that this question has two sides to 1t.
and most of its statements are its own falsehoods
To the gentlemanly dignity and GOODNESS of Col.
Needham of Hartford, Hon. Mr. Hebard OF
Chelsea Mr., Merrill OF St. Johnsbury, Mr..
CUTS of Hartland, White OF Windsor, Chap
man Of Woodstock, and number oil others in
tho House, aud large majority of the Senate
the people eff Vermont owe a debt of gratitude
for their exertions for the interests of the State
in deavoring to procure the completion of the
State House, so that the Library, the records in
the Secretary of States Office and other valuable
papers might as soon as possible be placed secure
from the action Of the elements and that the
large sum expended upon the House, now at
waste without interest, might be rendered avail
asls, and the expense of procuring Offices and
committee rooms be avoided. 1t is Of the utmost
Importance to the pecuniary interests of the
State that the State Honse should have been
completed the coming summer, and we sincerely
regret that no definite action was had.
AS the Times intimates that" much is left t.
say, by and by we will postpone for Thu
time.

VENTILATIoN oP SrABLEs.-We have some
times, specialized as to which stable is most
inimical to the health and comfot of horses,
the one with an inch plank on the floor,
hole in the door and clapboard off one side
and broken window in the other, leaky
roof, OR tightly built one without any means
of ventilation. Unfortunately there are too
many Of each class in all sections of the
country, But Tie number is, we trust, yearly
getting less. See to it. however, you who
have had energy enough to build neat, good,
substantial barn. that from lack of judicious
ventilation your horses are not as much injur-
ed in eyes and lungs, from the lack of good
air and the constant exhaltion Of noxious va
pors, as they would be in other respects in the
tnmble-down barn Of your neighbor Shiftless.

correspondent of the London Field suggests
a method by which unpalatable hay may be
rendered savory to all kinds of stock. In
stacking adopt the well known spriukling
Of salt, and previous to the consumption Of
the hay by cattle, cut it with chatf cutter,
and then take one pound of molasses, mix it
intimately with two gallons of water, and
sprinkle this eau sucre over seven bushels of
the cut food. All animals will devour this
compound with apparently as great relish
as the alderman does his turtle; and, more
over, soon exhibit similar tendency to
