the hands of the Chief Of Police, who notifies his
officers. The Mayor does not now give the per-

system Of giving passes at the guardhouse to col

persons are required TO obtain passes from their

issued proclamation informing the people
that ''One Horace Greedy, a most diaboIi-
cal, bloodthirsty and unmerciful man

DEscEIPTIoN OF VERMoNr.-A cores
pondent of the Freeman writes:
SIN looking over some old books in my
uncle's library, few days since, I found
a geography. published in London in 1908,
from which copied the following account
of Vermont. One would be puzzled,
think, If he were to try to find the State
from this description
The State OF Vermont is vast country,
situated east Of New Hampshire. south Of
Massachusetts, and west of New York.
1t is one hundred and ffiy-five miles in
length, and sixty in breadth. The capital
of the State is Bennington.
The Aliens are the chiefs, or head men,
OF the country. II is governed by its own
laws, independent of Congress and the
States. Hitherto it has been an object OF
contention between the States Of New York
and New Hampshire. The people had for
a long time no other name than Green
Mountain Boys, which they Gallicized into
Verdmont, and afterwards corrupted into
the easier pronunciation of Vermont"

O. The Peace in Europe does not civ

G. The Peace in Europe does not give
satisfaction TO the Italians, nor to the friends
of national liberty generally. Napoleon
has no idea of becoming the Ibera.or OF
Europe, and has gone homo to France
where he has made speech defending and
explaining the Peace. He takes the ground
that the war was carried as far as was for
the interests Of France, and then stopped,
or in other words he means that the war
was carried as far as it could and not en-
danger despotism. Napoleon is no better
to-day, than when he stole and usurped the
throne of France. The latest news repre-
SCENTS the Italians as much disatfected. Tn
