design or execution. The interior is arched
over head and finished in elaborate style. 1t
is built of brick and marble, and cost about
$4,000. Joel Billiard, who is well known in
this vicinity as the contractor of the Keene
Court House and our own Town Hail. as well
as many private edfces built this church, and
it is credit to his skill. 1t was dedicated on
the 18th ult.
Marble continues to be the chief article of
export from Rutland, from which it sent to all
parts of the country. The largest quarry is,
we believe, owned and worked by the Rutland
Marble Company, of which Gen. II. Henry
Baxter is the Treasurer. They employ nearly
two hundred hands, and some of their marble
is of the best quality quarricd in the State.
From their quarries came the marble from which
Mr.. Mead is making the Statue of Ethan AL
len.
Rutland has the best church, the richest
bank, (whose Cashier is candidate for Trcasurer)
the best printing Office, CTuttle's of course,) the
finest marble and the biggest general in the
State. Success to all.

RUTLAND.

The annually increasing number of votes cast
on election day, as seen by the returns, and a
visit to that town on the occasion of the late
State Convention, have served to impress up
on us the fact that Rutland has been recently
growing in population and in material wealth
more rapidly than any other town in Vermont.
The evidences of prosperity and thrift are
abundant and they meet one every hand. Nu-
merous elegant private residences, large and
commodious blocks of buildings for commercial
purposes, and several costly and beautiful pub
lie structures testify to this growth and i'm.
provement. Among the last may be named
the United States Court House and Post office
and the church edifce for the Congregationast
Society. The Court House, and its mate at
Windsor, were built by the general government
accordance with acts of Congress carried
through lchiefy by the exertions of Senator
Foot. They cost from $4,000 to $4,000 each,
and although much larger than the business Of
these several towns require they add largely to
the appearance of the villages in which they are
located. The one at Rutland has been some
time occupied, but the grounds about it are not
yet completely arranged. We saw in front
gneiss recently disc overed in the easterly part
of Rutland in the form of huge boulders, de-
posted there by glacial agencies undoubtedly, as
there are no lodges of that rock within perhaps
a hundred miles Of that town.
The Court House is situated on the corner Of
two streets recently opened through large
square between the Bardwell House and Main
street. On an opposite corner is the new Rut-
land Bank building, while on the opposite side
is the Church edifice aforesaid No other SIM
liar building in Vermont will nearly compare
with this beautiful church. 1t is very large,
containing 200 pews or slips. On the front is
tower which with the spire is 200 feet in hight,
and we have never seen anything OF the kind
neater or more chaste and beautiful, either in
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1860-07-07

lass look in the Southern States is almost hope
less. lie has only three organs of any consid-
cradle weight, and these arc the st. Louis Re
publican, the New Orleans Delta, and the Mo-
bile Register, the latter John Forsyths paper.
Of some 10 democratic papers in Virginia only
one, so far, goes for Douglas, while at least sew
enty have declared for Breckenridge. The
Douglas party has no existence meriting atten-
ton in any Southern State except Arkansas and
Missouri; and in only the last named of these
does he stand any possible chance Of success
On the other hand Breckenridge is breaking in
to the line quite seriously, at the North, where
his strength develops greater each day than was
ever expected.

The VILLAGE Schools closed last Friday, for
vacation of nine weeks. Half day was devoted TO
the examination of each OF the Primary schools and
the Intermediate and day to the examination Of the
High school. A good degree of interest was mani
tested in the examination Of the Schools and quite
goodly number of visitors attended. All the schools
appeared well; the teachers, and the pupils generally
seem to have done their duty faithfully
The following Register Of the attendance &c. Of the
scholars of tho High school during the term furnished
by Mr.. Brown, will be instructive and interesting to
parents and others

1t is unnecessary to speak of Carlye's literary char
acter, ability and style to the general reader. All who
have any knowledge Of books have often pondered
his often inverted, knoty sentences, forcbe in
delineation and pregnant with thought. His clear,
subtle, analytical mind often seeks and never in vain
an unfrequented channel for communication with 9TH
minds and small portion of pleasure in pc
rusing his writings consists in wondering and vet ad-
mirng the skill with which he makes our language
bend to his exigences But we have not space for
more than n commentator Of the manner in which
the publishers have gotten up this edition. The clear
cut type, delcately tinted, creamy paper the ample
margin and the neat bnding-are all fair sample of
what we expect to find in books from this leading
house of Brown & Taggard, whose well earned fame
is not unknown to any of our readers.

THE STORM IN WINCHESTER AND RICHMOND
The thunder shower Of last Saturday was severe in
the eastern part Of Winchester and in Richmond. The
rain fell in torrents, accompanied by hail which
~ covered the ground for half an hour, giving the
the appearance of having been shot through and
t'Osrh, Quoting tho apples ffurn the trees und
ing the leaves. Even the next morning, hailstones
could be picked up in considerable quantities. where
they had been washed together. The roads were Of
course badly washed. owned by Stephen
Randall of Richmond, was killed by lightning. and
the brick Westinghouse at the "four Corners was

Mr.. SCENARIOS PosIrIoN.-Some of Mr..
Stewards opponents, who, by the way are so
greatly grieyed because he did not get the NOM
ination for the Presidency at Chicago conven-
ton, will have it that his disappointment will
cause him to give the cold shoulder to the Re-
publican nominees. Lest such statements
should impose upon the uniformed, we give
the following letter written by Mr.. Seward,
from Auburn, June &C. in reply to an invitation
to be at a republican meeting in New York
City, oil Thursday evening:
81 rejoice in the indications of activity on the
part of the republicans of the city of New York
in the canvass which is opening under the most
suspicious circumstances. You will, hope, be
favored with the visits Of many of the republi-
can representatives of this State and other
States. For myself, l desire to be regarded as
always with you, and as one of yourselves.
need n little time here to repair the wastes OF
eighteen months absence from home; q little
time to bring up arrears of a correspondence
too generous and patriotic to be neglected.
would fain hope that my active efforts in the
canvass might not he necessary. But | hold
myself bound by obligations of public duty and
OF personal gratitude to contribute all the exer-
ton necessary on my part to the establishment
OF the republican party in the administration OF
government, by the election of its chosen and
worthy candidates, Lincoln and Hamlin, and
those obligations / shall faithfully fulfill"

SEVERE SToRM.-The thunder storm and
gale of Friday evening of last week, was quite
fatal to life and property in and about Boston.
In the harbor vessels of all kinds were badly
wrecked, and many of them ruined; on the
common trees were uprooted and branches
blown off, and among others damaged was the
''old elm," which is as familiar to the sight of
Bostonians as the dome of the State House;
the northerly half Of its large branches, which
had been bound by iron for many years, burst
the bands and fell to the ground, carrying
portion of the trunk with them A small boat
containing two men, was upset near Fort indie
pendence, and before assistance arrived one of
them was drowned; both were soldiers and
were returning from the fort where they had
been stationed. At West Dedham, a Young
man named Abner Baker was struck by light
ming and instantly killed he was struck in the
mouth, when the fluid passed downward, melt
ing his watch chain, tearing his pants and burst
ing one of his boots he was a son of Timothy
Baker, of the firm of Howes & Baker, -four
dealers in Boston. Jonathan B. Goodenough's
hovse, in Brighton, was struck by lightning and
MIR Goodenough instantly killed, and his family
more or less injured.
In Bi ooklyn, n. Y, the frame work of the
roof being placed on the new Brooklyn Acade-
my of Music, was lifted off and fell, crushing
eight or ten persons, women and others, serious
ly injuring several of them but not killing any.

State Engineer, Col. Ezra Lincoln, has decided
upon the connection of the Troy and Greenfield
Railroad, with the Vermont and Massachusetts
road at Greenfield, according to the original
survey at Cheapside. This settles the question
so far as these two roads are concerned. The
Vermont and Massachusetts road will furnish
the frogs to make the connection, and convey
the stone to Green river, for the bridge abut-
ments. The road will be completed to Shell
burne Falls in one year, and to the tunnel in
eighteen months. We are happy to learn that
Col. Haupt, the contractor, has surmounted all
Obstacles has made satisfactory arrangements
with the Vermont and Massachusetts Railroad;
and is firm in the belief that in five years the
tunnel will be open to trayel.--Commercia
