SHEEP SHEARING MACHINE.-Oul
enterprising friend, A. j. Fullum, Of
Springfield this State, has recently in.
vented machine for shearing sheep by
steam. We wish him complete success
in this important invention, and of which
he is very sanguine.
We can personally say this of Mr..
Pullman old schoolmate and travelling
companion of ours--that we know him
to be possessed of natural inventive tai
ent Of high order and that nowhere on
American soil walks there man primed
with more real Yankee pluck and go~a-
headitiveness. Circumstances may be
adverse TO him-reverse have and may
again come upon him, but so sure as the
sun shall continue to march bis daily
round SO sure will A. j. Fullam, like a
cat thrown in the air, in the end strike
square on his feet.

INTERESTING LEGAL QUESTION:
A case is pending in the Supreme Cour
now in session in Rutland, says the Her
aid, between a citizen of the town o
Wells, and the constable of the town
involving the constitutionality of the acr
Of the Legislature authorizing the towns
to raise money to pay volunteers, passed
in 1862. In the County Court it was
held that the tax for such purpose was
legal, and judgment was given in favor
of defendant. The plaintiff excepted to
the decision of the County Court, and
the case now comes before the Supreme
Court for revision. The question invol.
we'd is one of general public concern, and
the decision of the Court will be looked
for with much interest. The case is to
be argued by Prout & Dunton for the
plaintiff and by Mr.. Beaman and Mr..
Dewey, for defendant.

DEATH OF MARCUS MoRToN.-Ex-
governor Marcus Morton, father Of
Judge Morton of this city, died at Taun.
ton on Saturday, at the age of 80, after
brief illness. His name has long been
familiar in the politics of Massachusetts
He was born at Freetown, graduated al
Brown University in 1904, was clerk Of
the state Senate in 1911, representative
in Congress from 1917 to 1921, in 1928
a member of the governors council, in
1924 lieutenant governor, and became
acting governor by the death of Gov.
Eustis. In 1912 he was elected govern
or by the legislature, and in 1919 by one
majority in the popular vote. In the
intervening period between 1912 and
1919 he was judge Of the state supreme
court. He held seat in the last con-
stitulional convention, which wa ; his
closing official service to the state. Orig
inally an earnest democrat, he became a
free soler and republican by the force
of his sincere democracy, and remained
attached to the republican party to the
close of his life, which was long, emf
nent and servicable to the state.-Spring-
field Republican.

No PRo-SLAvERY PARTY IN MIS-
soURI.--The 81, Louis Republican, the
conservative paper of Missouri, acknow.
lodges the death of slavery aud the folly
of attempting to save it in that state
1t says:-
In Missouri.;he slavery question is
settled. IF the ordinance of the old con
vention. decreeing emancipation within a
brief term of years, were not solution,
military orders have gone so far to take
the subject out of the field of discussion.
This is now essentially free state, and
is so looked upon both OF home and a.
broad. The condition we refer to could
not be more fully recognized anywhere,
were the total execution and obliteration
OF every trace of the " peculiar institu-
ton" declared tomorrow. We have
spent enough time and money over the
obsequies of the defunct. There is no
use in standing about the corpse to see
if possibly it NAV kick again."

TEMPERANCE SooIETY.-The tenn
perance people of the county will bear
in mind that the county society meets al
Craftsbury on Tuesday next, and so re.
member it that they will turn out and fill

of that hospitable town will give them a
warm welcome, and make their stay
agreeable. We do not know what course
the convention may take in regard to the
nomination of commissioner, but pre-
sumo il will nominate Mr.. Bates. This
would meet our wishes as it doubtless
would the wishes of majority of the
county. We hear of no particular COM
plant against him, but have heard much
in his favor. If he has made mistakes
the past year he can correct them in the
second.

CoLoRED SoLDIERs.-The colored
soldiers among the Vermont troops al
Bratteboro were incensed almost to mu-
tiny at being required TO leave the State
without receiving, as did the white soldi.
ers, their bounty. They expected to be
treated in all respects as white soldiers.
How long shall colored men have occa-
sion to complain of this species of in
Justice' Ought not our delegation in
Congress to be called upon to use their
influence to redress this grievance
And ought not the State, to pay them
the bounty and make their pay equal to
that of white soldiers, as Massachusetts
has done, If the General Government
will not ! But the true way is for the
General Government to do justly in the
matter.

brigades OF the cavalry corps, about 1000
strong, about 400 of whom were mount
ed, with no artillery, under command of
Col. Love Of the 18th Kentucky, skir-
mshed with the rebels under Gen. Jones,
on the Virginia road, 10 miles from Cum.
berland Gap, for three hours. We held
our position until dark, although attacked
by superior force. Then our forces
Withdrew TO our camps, 3 miles in the
rear. At sunrise Saturday morning
Loves pickets were attacked, when Love
moved to the front, to meet the enemy
advancing in line with 1000 infantry,
cavalry and 3 pieces of artillery. Col.
Love fell back 8 miles, skirmishing all
the way, when the enemy ceased follow
ing, and Love encamped 3 miles from
the Gap. The next morning Love sent
all his available forces 2 miles in from,
and had lively skirmish with the enc
my, twice charging the rebels and div
ing them back with heavy loss. Since
which time up to the afternoon ofhe 9th
the rebels have not appeared in any fee
on our front. Our loss in these skir-
mshes is killed, 8 wounded gid 3 mis-

PETRIF,ED BoDIEs.-M r Editor:
In loollng over some papers laid aside
I fund some memoranda relating to the
removal of the dead, some years since,
from the original burying ground in the
town of ST. Johnsbury, to the new GEM
etry, nearly north of the village. The
old ground is now occupied by the Court
House. My notes relate to the singular
condition of several of the disinterred
bodies, but l will only describe one par
ticularly. Jonathan Prescott was, in the
year 1890, a resident of St. Johnsbury,
and at that time the seventh settler. He
had lived at various localities in town,
but at the time of his decease he resided
on the farm in the south rart of the
town, now occupied by John B. Woods.
He died May 27, lS48, aged SO years.
The disease which ended his days was
pulmonary consumption. AT the time of
the removal of his body he had been buri-
ed some eight or nine years. The coffin,
when it was attempted to raise it, was
found extremely ponderous, requiring
the united strength of four or five men
to lift it from the grave. Upon opening
the coffin, the body, face and limbs, ex-
hibiied their usual proportions, and natu-
raj appearance, save the face was brown
ish in color. Fertilization seemed to be
p rfect, extending to all parts Of the body.
Upon touching the forehead with the
blade Of spade a ringing sound as if
the spade had struck stone, was pro-
duced. Two other bodies were found 10
similar condition, all of which had been
inferred subsequently, but soon after that
of Mr.. Prescott. The soil where Mr..
Prescott was buried was sandy, or rather
of sandy-loam. The other two refer
ed to were buried nearer the eastern end
of the yard where the soil was similar,
upon the surface, with a clayey subsoil,
and little moist l have thought con-
siderably Of these cases of petrifcation.
am unable to satisfy myself as to the
reason why these bodies among several
hundred in the same yard should be
found in this condition. Was there any,
thing petrifactive in the soil Did the
diseases of which they died, or the med
icine administered, cause it? Two died
of consumption, and on of diabetes.
Let the wise man explain these things if
he can.-.& Johns6uyy Calsdontan.
