A case was tried before one of the
Justices of the Peace for the city yester-
day morning, in which a cute darkey
Don-suited white man pretty cleyerly..
The complainant, some weeks before the
change in affairs, left with the defend
ant mule, STIMULATING at the time for
only nominal hire, as the animal was
only left with the colored individual to
save it from the con6scatiou that was
thought would be universal upon the ar
rival of the Federal troops. The ''muleP
remained IN the negro's possession I'M
I'll Saturday last, when the owner put 10
a claim Of $40 for hire, saying that that
was the arrangement. Cuffee declined
Smelling out" when suit was brought
against him for the recovery Of the
money, before a Justice of the Peace.
The defendant listened patiently until
the compliments averment had been
heard, and then Offset the whole matter
by citing the law, showing that at the
time of the transaction OF the business,
no white man could legally make any
contract with him, he being slave. OF
course this was deadner" and the
claim for $40 rent of mule" fell

A mass temperance convention was
held at White River Village last week,
at which q good number of citizens OF
the county were in attendance and con-
siderable interest was manifested. Dea
s. Morris Of Norwich was chairman and
Rev. Charles W. Clark of Hartland,
secretary. Rev. e. II. Byington spoke
of the f2ad prevalence of intemperance,
and the need of effeative organization as
a means Of checking it. In the opinion
of the speaker, too much dependence is
placed upon itinerant effort What is
needed is a vigorous organization in
every town which shall reach each
school district and remote corner, and
perpetuate from year to year permanent
influence. Some organization is needed
which shall take some such place in the
temperance cause as the church occu-
pies in religion.
Reys A. G. Pease of Norwich spoke
upon the necessity of enforcing the pres
ent prohibitory law. and Rev. Moses
Kidder of Woodstock addressed some
remarks, to the young, of whom large
number were present, applying his argu-
ments to tobacco as well as rum.
Aslengthy address was then made by
Charles P. Marsh, Esq, of this village,
States Attorney for the county. He
gave some at the results Of his expe-
rience as States Attorney in this coun-
ty, illustrating particularly the startling
tendencyaof intemperance to commission
of the crime of perjury, giving it as his
deliberate opinion that of those who
dbnk under the present law, nineteen
out of twenty will commit perjury. His
experience had led him to indorse the
policy of the present prohibitory law,
into which public opinion was now cryss,
talized, calling it one of the easiest OF
laws to execute aud arguing in conclu-
sion the necessity of impartiality in the
execution of it. n
Brief remarks were made by Dr. Tuck
er oSsWoodstock and Rev. Mr. Haynes

The st. Adams Raiders.
From the London Times, Jau. 4.


We are now in possession of those pa
pers from which mankind must form
their judgment as to the nature and
bearing Of those transactions in Cana
da which have so greatly irritated the
press and the people of the United
States. For once we feel very much in
clined to sympathiZe with them in the
first outburst of their Indignation. The
outrage which had been inflicted upon
them by persons taking their departure
from the neutral territory of Canada
was Of the fOulest description. 1t had
nothing in it of the nature of war, but
was real robbery and murder striving
to shelter itself under that all-atoning
name. The success of a hundred such
outrages as the St. Albans raid could
I not by any possibility have influenced
in the slightest degree the result OF the
American civil war. 1t is not by plum
dering banks and murd ori''sr alsEl>s chat
che destinieS OF great nations Strug-
Cling for existence or independence are
to be decided and, for our part, we
shall heartily rejoice if the perpetra-
tors shall be at last given up, to be dealt
with, not as honorable enemies, but as
criminals exposed to the just vengeance
Of offended law.
After reciting the history of the re-
lease Of the raiders by the Canadian
Judge, and censuring him for too hasty
action, the Times continues:
But we go step further and main
tain that, If the Judge had no alterna-
tive but to act in the way that he did
the authorities of Montreal ought to
have taken upon themselves the risk
and the responsibility of OBTAINING these
prisoners, even without legal warrant,
for the very brief period which would
have been required to obtain the requi-
site warrant signed by the Governor
General. The question was one of great
Importance; on it might have depended
the issues of peace and war, and any one
refusing to allow the ends of Justice and
the very legitimate demands of neigh
boring nation to be defeated by a merely
technical objection, might reckon, with
the utmost confidence, on obtaining a
legislative indemnity for his conduct.
We do not know where the Governor
General was but he probably was not
beyond Quebec on the north, or Toronto
on the south, and might, therefore, have
been communicated with by railway
and telegraph in a few hours. We are
not in possession of information sufi-
cient to enable us to state on whom, be-
yOnd the Judge, the blame of this mis-
carriage Of justice attaches but, strong
and unjustiflable as the language of the
American journals has been, we certain
ly feel that they have good ground for
feeling indignant at a transaction that
contrasts SO unfavorably with the
prompt and efficient assistance which
they gave us in the case of Muller.

W Mr.. Richard Montgomery, an en-
gineer at New York, proposes to build
a railroad upon pillars of corrugated
iron to run along both sides of Broad
way at the hight of the second floors of
the best class of stores. He claims that
such a road would cost less than a mil
lion dollars, and could be completed in
three months, without during that time
or afterwards, interfering with travel on
the street One feature would recon-
mend this plan to New Workers, who
pay such enormous rents. He suggests
that the road shall be connected, at the
street corners with walk, CT gecond-
storyapavement to be run along the en-
tire front of Broadway by private enter
prise; and thus there would be created
double tier of shops, where now only
a single tier exists as rule.

Editor Rstland Herald In a recent
visit to Vermont learned, much TO my
chagrin, that the people Of that State
scarcely knew they had such regiment
In the United States service, as the
Eighth Vermont Infantry. In fact /
met many generally well informed peo-
pie who thought this regiment was
mustered out in too last June, and tnat
sigce that time theirs had been no such
regiment, But that Negiment still lives
though many OF its gallant officers
and brave meG have gone to that home
where no contentious aSe--many others
