Northfeld, April 18th, 1858.
To day Deputy Sheriff J. Ii. 0rcutt, on war
rants issued by Roys Jones, ESQ.,, on the COM
plant of G, II. Joyce States Attorney, searched
the premises of William Quimby, and seized
about forty gallons of Liquor,-also, on the
premises of Edward German, siezed two bar
rels of Strong Beer-on the premises Of DR..
Edwin Porter one barrel of Gin and one barrel
of R. G. Brandy-in tho Grocery Of Charles
Carter two barrels of Beer.
Monday morning, j. A. Vail and F. V. Ran
dali appeared, and gave out in speeches that
before night the Liquor would all be restored to
, its proper owners. Vail started Immediately
for the High Bailiff, to replevy the Liquor,
while the ex-representative from Roxburv was
left to watch the Rum.
But Young America was in town, and before
Vail had been gone two hours the Liquor and
Beer was all in Dog River. So it seems that
the writs Of roplevin are yet unserved, and sor-
row and anguish is the bitter lot of those two
legal gentlemen.
On Saturday afternoon, William Quimby
was brought before Justice Jones, on complaint
ef~States Attorney, and fined $2l0 and cost
for selling Liquor.
On Monday, John NJ. Mills was brought up
and fined $40 and cost, for like offence-Joseph
Danes fined $40 and cost Andrew RoulSton
fined $40 and cost DR.. Edwin Porter fined
$3.50 and cost, $25, 5l-all for violation of
Liquor Law.
Much credit is due to j. G. Gault, r. Sher-
burne. A. r. Morrill,, Leander Foster, CLANCY
Bennett, Joseph Gould, James Gould, and
others, for the assistance they have rendered
and the good service they have performed in
this general renovation which we have had.
"TIBo."
Mr.. MoRRu.L's LAND Built will be seen
that the bill introduced by MIR. Morrill, OF YER
mont has passed the House, and a correspondent
says there is no doubt but that it will pass the
Senate. 1t is one of the most useful measures
ever presented to the country, and the interests
of agriculture will welcome it with outstre tched
arms. A College will be early in existence in
this State, and the pursuit of Agriculture will
no longer be considered drudge, and beneath
the attention of our young men, or men OF
wealth and afiuence.
The character of the State gives character to
her citizens. The greatest and best products of
Vermont are her young men. Of these she pro-
duces abundance With these she extends Free
dom by peoplng new territories. Then let us
sec that the influence of the State is such as to
give them right principles. If we would have
honorable, high-minded, moral and industrious
young men, we must make the character of the
Stateso. Let every parent look at and consider
this matter in connection with his politicnl dis
cussions.
We would inform the young man of the Free
man that true Democrat never changes his
principles or his name. Is never caught by
chaf or sugar-coated pills, and further that
such 4" condition of affairs y will not exist as
to warrant representative of the Anti-Le-
compton Democracy upon the State ticket.
For the good and sufficient reason, that the De-
mocracy of Vermont know no Lecompton OF
Anti-Lecompton and have no desire to get into
bed with such an abolition concern as the Free
man. We would further assure the Freeman
that there is no division in the ranks of the
Vermont Democracy. Can the Freeman say al
much for the Niger party? There are toe
many expectant candidates for Governor in youl
own ranks, Mr.. Freeman, to have much har
mony, and we doubt whether any other THAI
Mr. Holbrook could be elected if nominated
Rutland Courier.
We inform the old man of the Rutland Cour
Ter that that is letting the cat out very much t.
our qualification. We are not surprised, for W
have all the time supposed that the Lecomptol
Democracy were bent on getting Mr.. Holbrool
nominated, even if they had to do it themselves
As to Anti-Lecompton Democrats, it would no
be any strange thing, if the Democratic part
in this State had got so small as that no on
would dare say his soul was his own, for fear 0
losing his Office. But we have 50 good an opin
ion of the people of the State as to believe tina
no principled man will vote for sustaining tn
Administration upon Kansas matters. Furthe
than that we believe there will be an anti-Le
comptoRcanddate upon the Republican ticket
The Administration party are talking of
State Convention about the 10th of May. Thei
Windsor County Convention is called for Ma
18th.
Miss A. M. Hcmenway, of Ludlow, the EditC
Of the proposed volume of Vermont Poetr,
writes that every County in the State has r
sponded with contributions, except Essex, ar
asks that the writers in that County or son
other will furnish specimens from its living
deceased writers for publication. Good col
tributions will be gratefully received until Ma
Goth.
