New Freeman Building.

Freedom, will be pleased to learn of any good
fortune or prosperity Of the paper long ago
called. and which has at present no prouder as
pirations than to be, their organ. From an
uncertainty of existence, and condition al
most disparng the Freeman has come to pos
sess the largest and best paying list of sub
scribers in the State. Its subscription is threh-
bic that of any other State paper. It's influence,
and the truth of its position, has been satisfac-
torily shown in the results of the last political
year. And this has come from but slight ex-
ertion upon the part of its friends. And now,
while we are adding hundreds week to its list,
we are compelled to say that no pains shall be
spared on our part to render the paper interest
ing, and accomplish the wishes of its early
founders. For this purpose we have commenced
the erection of new building for its accom-.
mediation, which is 80 near complete as to war;
rant lis in saying that it will be ready for occu-
pancy by the first of April. The paper will be
enlarged and materially improved during the
next year, which could not we'll be done while
remaining in its old contracted quarters. The
best talent in the State will be engaged upon
its Miscellaneous, Agricultural and Political
departments and nothing spared to make it the
family paper Of the Green Mountain State. The
advice and suggestions of our political friendsar
at all times welcome, and wished for, and we
hope they will not be bashful in their criticisms
and suggestions for the benefit of their own
family paper.

been said in our columns upon the State House,

Waterman this week. There is either new
hand at the bellows, or else the old one is getting
walked up. At any rate, ace guess old ex-Pro f
Ben will have something besides grammar to
attend to before he gets through with it. We
advise Burlington to get out of matter which
they are evidently ashamed of, as soon as pos
sible
BANK OF ORANGE CouNTY.-We have not yet
seen any account of the organization of the
new Bank Of Orange County, at Chelsea, but
happening to receive three dollar bill upon it,
we are so pleased with it that we must call par
ticular attention to it, and advise our subscrib-
ers to get as many of them as they can--eipec-
tally the threes. Good-looking, good-natured
young ladies are blessing in any mans pos
session. We see that Hon. B. W. Bartholomew
