Letter from Springfield.

SPRIEGFIELD. VT

Correspondent of the Bellows Falls Times.
SPRIEGFIELD, VT,
A pril 8th, 1861.
Mr.. EDITOR We Judge from the ac-
count of rowdyism at Bellows Falls, in
your last paper, that Springfield is not af-
ter all degraded so far below all other places
by this practice among the young men and
boys. The fact however is undeniable that
we have had too much of it of late yet it
is equally true that strenuous efforts have
been made to check this growing evil.
Both legal suasion and moral suasion have
been applied. Some of the suspected deal
ers in the ardent have been called upon
with search warrant as letter of intro
duction, which has had the effect to drive
the sale Of the article far behind the cur
tain, if not to stop it wholly. On the other
hand the pledge has been circulated and a
series of old fashioned temperance meet
ings have been held; and it is hoped and
believed that some good has grown out of
these efforts.
One source of encouragement is the fact
that at the late school meeting the village
district voted to have three schools of nine
months each, the ensuing year, one prima-
ry, one grammar, and one of high school
grade, the latter having hitherto been lin
tied TO winter school of one term, thus af-
tording every opportunity ard inducement
for the young TO spend their time in more
pleasant and profitable manner than loafing
in bar-rooms, stables and stores. We be-
lieve that the education and good morals Of
youth advance together; that good schools
are an excellent substitute for alms-houses.
or at least to great extent obviate the
necessity for them.
Notwithstanding our national misfortunes
the people here seem to be confident of a
season Of thriving business. Some four or
five new stores are soon TO be opened, and
there is very encouraging rumor that we
are to have a new hotel, and one Of the
right sort. That certainly is a desIderatum
in Springfield, and will be sure to pay.
Whoever has the enterprise to put up ho-
tel such as tue village demands, will have
the hearty thanks and liberal support of the
community. Contracts have also been con-
cluded for erecting several private dwelling
houses during the summer.

DEATH OF CHIEF JUSTICE SHAW
Lemuel Shaw, the venerable ex-chief JUS
tice of the supreme court of Massachusetts
died at his residence in Boston, on Saturday
morning. His health has been such for
some time that it was not unreasonable to
anticipate his death at any moment but
when the event came it was nevertheless
sudden and startling. His disease was Of
the heart, and has recently been at times
quite painful and attended with fits of men
tai alteration. lie got up as usual, Satur-
day morning, and was dressing himself and
conversing with one Of his sons, when he
dropped down and expired almost instantly.
lie had reached the great age of so, having
been born at Barnstable, January 9, 1871
his father being Rev. Oakes Shaw. He
graduated at Hartford in I800.aud was adj
mitted TO the bar in 1904, and remained in
practice in Boston till he was appointed
chief justice of the supreme court of the
common wealth in 1880, which Office he
held until September last. lie had previ-
ously represented Boston several years in
the legislature, and was a member of the
corporation of Harvard college for about
! thirty years. He was twice married. after
remaing single til about forty. His last
wife survives him, and four children, Oakes
Shaw and Mrs. Melville, wife of Herman
Melville, children of his first wife, and
Lemuel Shaw, a lawyer in Boston, and

DuBuQuE, IowA.-We observe by the
Dubuque Times that Il. NJ. Robinson, Esq
formerly of Reading, this State, is the Re
publican candidate for city Attorney. The
Times highly commends Mr.. Robinson, and
no doubt justly. His opponent appears to
be O'Neil, a rabid secession doughface, and
remarkable for his exceedingly liberal
charges against the city. A writer in the
Times says;
Of. NJ. Robinson is the candidate for the
office of City Attorney, and his opponent IS
the notorious secessionist, John IL. ONeil.
Mr. Robinson is lawyer of unquestion-
able ability, conscientious counsellor and
a man universally respected in this commu-
nifty"
As Dubuque has always been democrat
ic city, we regret the probability that Mr.,
Robinson will not be elected, though we
shall look with unusual interest for the re-
suit of the election.
LATER All hail Dubuque The re-
puDllcanS made clean sweep at the hhu-
nicipal election in Dubuque, last week,
electing their entire ticket, except two al
dermen, by majorities ranging from l0l to
850-ayeraging about $50. Dubuque has
always been good for 400 to 700 democrat
ic majority. No names of those elected
are given, but it no doubt includes our friend
who is undoubtedly elected
and we shall run the risk of offering him
our most cordial congratulations, and his
numerous friends in this State will also re-
joice with US in his success. Nor should
we consider this notice complete without a
word of congratula:ion to our republican
brethren in Dubuque for their brilliant vic
tory. May they have many more such.

lhe Montpelier II0tchnadR says that the
town Of johnson has one woman, at least,

VERDANT.-Two green horns bought
tickets for Milwaukee, at Burlington the

A single ticket would not have staggered

mystery, and they went back to the ticket
agent, and inquired if they should "stick
the coupons to the baggage An expla-
nation gave them much relief.
A man named Glines, of Bradford, in set

instrument. The sheriff. to oblige him,
consented and received the box containing
the instrument, and on opening the box
next morning found two or three stones and
a quantity of rags and paper After which
Glines was brought before justice and
bound up TO County court in the sum of 500.

The War Cloud has appeared this week
apparently in great earnest, though two
thirds of all that is reported is doubtless
humbug. AT Charlestown, it is evident a
crisis is near at hand. The probability that
the Federal Government has not been Sc
idle as some have supposed during the last
month, has greatly increased the war fever
and excitement in South Carolina, and they
are sending troops by the thousand into
Charleston. 1t is reported to-day WED
nesday) that Fort Sumter will be re-inforc-
ed with provisions at any rate, and this will
of course amount to Reinforcement.
II. S. Chew arrived at Charleston Tues
day, with a message from Secretary Seward
10 Gov. Pickens, to the effect that Fort
Sumter must be provisioned from some
source, and if Major Anderson is not sup
piled regularly from Charleston, the Fed
eral Government win supply him.
1t is stated 10 administration circles that
the recent warlike preparations are for de-
fensive purposes merely, and nothing ia in
tended not strictly justified by the condition
Of affairs. The President and Cabinet en-
tertained the idea of reinforcing both Forts
Sumter and Pickens, but owing to MONACO
quaintance with the means at command Of
government and the critical condition of the
country, the prosecution of the plans now
progressing was impracticable. In other
words, it was necessary to ascertain the
extent of effects bequeathed TO the present
by the late administrations 1t was deemed
essential TO keep secret the object of all
military movements, especially the sailing
OF vessels with sealed orders, as under the
late administration there were persons who
clandestinely communicated its purpose to
the secessionists. This frequently occurred
before the orders were reduced TO 40 official
form, and according to a remark of an ex-
secretary, the administration thus always
lOuuu ilstll ttDDtITdsStu at INC I'M
The present administration has limited such
knowledge to members of the Cabinet and
several trusty offers, and such precautionary
measures were taken as to render it next to
immpssible for spies or eavesdroppers to
acquire the forbidden information.
People may speculate. as much as they
choose, But the administration, very proper
ly feels under no obligation to announce its
plans and purposes in advance, and will ask
to be judged by its acts, and not by the
words of its enemies. The wisdom of this
course is being more apparent every day.

Blunders at weddings are sometimes Iu-
dicrous, as witness the following which oc-
CURED in neighboring town: sin the
midst of crowd Of witnesses, the cIerov-
man had just completed the interesting GER
emony which binds in the silver bonds of
wedlock two willing hearts, and stretched
forth his bands to implore the blessings OF
heaven on the union. AT this point the
groomsman, seeing the open hands reached
out, supposed it was the signal for him to
surrender the wedding fee, which was burn
ing in his pocket. Accordingly, Just as the
clergyman was closing his eyes in PRAYER,
he felt the pressure Of two sweaty half dol
lars upon his open palm. The good man
hesitated moment, appalled, at the ludic-
rous OF his situation, but coolly deposited
the money IN his pocket, and proceeded
with his deyotions.''
