Vermont watchman and State journal. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1836-1883, 1859-01-14

complete the report Of this conversation, which |
we do upon Mr.. Collamcr's authority. Mr.. !
f. also said to Mr. c. that they should want
the State House at some time at Burlington,
and in such case they should have to pay
back to Montpelier all that should be paid by
her
The Free Press denies the charge we made
against Burlington Of implncabe warfare
against Montpelier aud talks like very
innocent To seriously ask Of Montpelier
proof Of the charge, after the costly and hard
fought campaigns she has contested for the
last thirty years, and which have always been
commenced by Burlington, is too much like
asking an old Revolutionary campaigner to
prove the hostility of our old enemy This
disclaimer Of hostility on the part of Burling-
ton is decidedly the coolest thing of this cold
season.
Mn. Curtis AGAtN.--Those who were de-
prived the privilege of hearing Mr.. Cuts
Shokspearan Reading on Wednesday evening
the Doth ult., will be pleased to learn that he
is to give another Reading at the Free
Church in this place, on Friday evening, the
llth inst. His reading. on the former occa-
sion. of the first Part Of Shakespeare play
of Henry the Fourth was perfect success.
We were able to be present but a short time,
but long enough to become satisfied that Mr..
Cults has every necessary qualification for
successful rendering of his great master. We
hope he will be greeted with a full house on
Friday evening
We understand that he is to read at
Mortified on Monday evening next.
ADVERTISING hPosrERs.-A few months
since we received advertisements from the
house @ of Carey u Co.. New York, with
the request that we insert the same and send
paper during the time, and offering to furnish
bronze, &c, in payment. We complied with
the request, and ordered the bronze. but was
coolly told that nothing could be furnished
us until the advertisement expired. On the
first of January we sent bill again and re-
quested them to fill our order in payment
The only reply we get is a notice from the
postmaster at New York that the paper ad-
dressed to Carey & Co. was not taken from
the office reason refused" We have no
hesitation, therefore, in pronouncing the ad-
vertising agency of Carey q Co. hu,nJug.
and make these statements for the benefit of
the press generally. Pass them round,
brother editors.

UNExANrLED Co1D.-This morning. from
six to eight o'clock, the temperature marked
by the thermometer of the late Prot. Thomp-
uHtA
by him for the last nineteen years of his life,
was -32 : or 1 degrees colder than the
morning Of the famous cold Friday, Jan. %,
1857, which was colder than had been ex-
perenced in this place for great many years
before. We are sure from our own obserya-
tions for the last hirty-three years, that no so
great cold has been ieltin Burlington within
that time. by at least three or four Degrees
We think the temperature has not been above
|-23 or PA to-day.-Eree Press of hon
