THE STATE CONVENTION.
Inc 7tli, 1869.

We trust there will be good attendance
from this county at the State Convention which
is to be held at Bratteboro on Tuesday next.
As it is generally understood that our present
able State officers will be re-nominated without
dissenting voice, and as the Convention &C.
ours during busy season, it is not expected
that the attendance from the more distant parts
of the State will be as large as usual. The Re-
publicans of Windham County will now have
an excellent opportunity for attending State
Convention of their party once in their lives, at
triaing expenditure of time and money. Let
them turn out and show to their brethren from
other sections that Republicanism here burns
brightly.

COLLEGE CoMMrNcEMEYTs.-The season for
growing crop of "D. D.'s," "LLD.'s," "a.

to the patronymics of our people, has nearly
concluded and the harvest has already COM
menced. Whatever may be the dearth, drought
or flood in the natural world however much
war, pestilence or famine may affect the quota
tons Of pork or breadstuffs, this crop of pccu-
liar combinations among the Roman capitals is
never known to fail. Literary merit is gener-
ally supposed to be the soil where this iruitage
is generated and perfected, but wealth, connec-
tons, political position, &c., are not without
reason suspected of being powerful fertilizers.

quenchable love for titles of some kind, and as
we have no patents of nobility in this country,

way down to "A. b." capt." and the ubiqui-
tous ESQ.," seem to answer all purposes. 1t

proviso. Not being praying man himself, he
looked around for one who was At length he
found one-a meek young man from Trumbuil
county, who agreed to pay tor his board by pray
ing. For while all went smoothly, but the
boarding master furnished his table so poorly
that the boarders began to grumble and to leave,
and the other morning the praying boarder
"struck" Something like the following dialogue
occurred at the table: Landlord-Will you pray,
