MEssRs. HERRING & Co.-GENTLEMEN:
Though the destruction of the American

self and the public. am happy to verify
the old adage, that ''It's an III wind that
blows nobody good and, consequently.
safes have again demonstrated their snpe
rior tire-proof qualities i'll an ordeal of un-
usual severity.
The safe you made FOR me some time
ago was in the office o. the Museum, on
the second floor, back part Of the building,
and in the hottest of the fire
After twenty-four hours of trial, it was
found among the debris, and on opening
it this day has yielded up its contents in
very good order-bcoks, papers, policies OF
insurance, bank bills, all in condition for
immediate use, and a noble commentary
on the trustworthiness of Hcrring's Fire
Proof Safe. Yours truly, p. L. BAKNUM.

Concerning Ee0gs.

An animal that receives so much at
tention from legislators as the dog does,
certainly deserves 10 be the subject of an
independent paragraph with a heading
in capital letters. The dog question is
as irrepressible in Vermont legislation,
as the negro question is In national poll
tics. For the past eight or ten years,
there has not been q session in which it
has not been debated long and earnestly.
It would not be the strangeSt thing in
history if it should be carried into poll
tics, and the dog party and anti dog par
ty divide the sufra2es of the people.
There is an evident disposition on the
part of very many TO greatly curtail
either the number of the dogs or their
opportunities to act out their nature.
Mr.. Brown of Vernon, appears to have
studied the dog question in all its length,
and breadth, and depth, and highth; and
to have considered it in its financial, So
cial, political, economical, ethical and
historical bearings. As the result. he
has introduced bill, fourteen sections
long, concerning dogs, and for the pre-
servatiOn of sheep and other animals" !"

system of licensing" of whose great
merits so much is said in some newspa-
pers. 1t enacts that on or before the 31st
of March annually, every
"Mongrel, puppy, whelp and hound,
And cur of low degree"
shall be registered, numbered, and IL
censed in the town clerks office at an
| expense of one dollar and half, and
that any person keeping an unlicensed
| dog shall be liable to fine Of fifteen
| dollars. Within ten days after the first
| of June, the selectmen are to issue an
/ order to the constable to kill all the un-
| licensed dogs in town, for which the
constable is to be paid at the rate OF one
| dollar per day. When sheep, or any
/ other domestic animals, are killed or in
iured by dogs, the damage is to be ascer-
tained by appraisers, and if the money
received for licenses is sufficient to pay
all the damages sustained during the
year, they are to be paid in full, other
| wise pro rate. These are the leading pro-
visions of the bill, which. Il it becomes

for all understood that this was Dutch,
while none could understand the En-
glish that was half swallowed by some
OF the singers. A song is not pill that
needs to be sugar coated in sweet sounds

and to understand one must hear. lGive

and to sing afterwards.

had double merit that of being eXquis-
itely sung, and of being the production,
both words and music, Of Mr. d. B. Wor-
ley of Whiting. 1t is a gem. The words
are full of sweet melody and the music
is perfectly adapted to them. The roll
ing echo in the Bass is, not only an orig
inal conception, but in perfect harmo-
ny with the soul of the piece. Mr. WOr-
ley may well feel a world of pride in
having given this little liquid melody
to the lovers OF good music. And we
can all feel 3 world Of pride in him as a
Nermonter, and for having set this in

In conclusion, Mr. Editor, the oflceas

men Of Brandon that they feel truly
grateful for the free use of the Town
Hall on this occasion Their estimate
of the citizens Of Brandon is given in

PERsoNAL.-We are pleased to learn
that Major VIM. Austine, U. s. A., who
has been on duty in this State for more
than three years, was on Thursday made
the recipient of two commissions from
the President, one as brevet Lieutenant
Colonel, the other as brevet Colonel in
the United States army. Col. Austine
has, by strict attention to business, won
the confidence and respect OF all classes,
and especially of those who have had
official intercourse with him since he
assumed the duties of the various mill
tary departments in the State. We ven-
ture to say that but few could discharge
the onerous and multifarious duties OF
the several offices under his charge, with
so much credit and ability, and so ac-
ceptably to the Government.

SILVER WEDDING OF Hon. HENRY WILL
soN.-The twenty-tlfth anniversary of
the marriage of Hon. Henry Wilson of
Natick, was observed by unusual "silver
wedding" ceremonies at his residence in
that town last Friday evening. The oc-
casion was one of great splendOr and Of
rare social interest," and was heartily
participated in by several hundred of the
Senator's friends, many of them warm
personal friends and associates, and all
enthusiastic admirers of his public char
acter and high attainments eXemplifed
so prominently and benetiCially during
the last quarter Of century. Among
the more distinguished personages pres
ent to congratulate the Senator upon this
silvery event of his life were Hon. Cnas.
Sumner, his colleague in the National
Senate, Collector Hamlin, Hon. Linus
Child. and Hon Anssn Burlingame-
Poems were read, and also letters from
absent persons, regretting their inability
to be present. Substantial tokens of es-
TEEN were presented, comprising all
kinds of silver ware to the value ol
$4,000, together with purse Of $4,000
The gifts were displayed during the eve
ming, and were objects of much interest

REVIVAL INTEREsT.-T Boston Jour-
nal expresses the belief that there is
more religious interest in that city at
present than there has been for some
time. Week before last, large number
of the churches held a Union Prayer
Meeting for special blessing upon the
Sunday Schools. The meeting was well
attended, and the hearts Of christians
were greatly encouraged.

the feeling of his brother officers. He
said he couldn't elbow his own whis-
tie" if he tried, and would much prefer
going into a sharp fight than making a
speech.

aeatS, the Batteries and Sh1pShoOt1s.-
Though isolated from their sister regi-
ments in this war, they have equally
sustained and illustrated the honor OF

Col. and Brevet Brig Gen. Edward H.
Ripley, of the Ninth Regiment, though
unexpectedly called on, replied to this
sentiment in an elegant and appropriate
speech.
TIE Secald TeJmom Brigade.-It gradu-
ated with honors at Gettysburg.
Col. Redfeld Proctor of the fifteenth
regiment responded.
The Press of TcTmOat.-With but few
exceptions it was quick to sound the
tocsin of alarm in the hour of our
| country's danger, and has ever kept in
time to the music of the Union.
Hon, L. P, Walton, Of the Montpelier
Journal said that though yet young, he
was the oldest member of the press in
Vermont, and he therefore felt his right
to respond to this sentiment as the press
with but few exceptions, and those not

as he was addressing, had been true tC

ADVENT CoNFERENoE.-An Advent con-
ference and meeting of the American
Millennium Association, lasting six days
and closing Sunday, the 22d inst. has
been held in Waterbury. The time was
occupied in business meetings, prayer
meetings, and in meetings for preaching
and public worship.
These people are not disposed to let
their light remain under a bushel, and
like most others who are engaged in pro-
mitigating important doctrines they feel
the need of material aid" Deacon
Knowls, being good flnancier, said that
money was the great lever by which their
faith was to be moved through the
world and those who love the faith must
open their pockets. Elder Maiben, a
pedestrian missionary and Scotchman
by birth, in speaking on the subject of
gicing, said he knew a man who owed
his pastor dollar, and brought along a
"pup" for pay, and made change by
throwing in a kitten. (Merriment.)
He then remarked seriously" that it
was our duty, like the Jews, to give a
certain portion Of our income for the
spread of the gospel, and other benevo-
| lent objects.
DR.. Litch, editor of the Advent Her.
aid, and a travelling Evangelist, preached
one evening to large audience. He is
represented to be a speaker of strange
power. He is not brilliant or eloquent
INDUCES in no pyrotechnic flights or
modern fireworks, so to speak his eyes
are downcast-you hardly ever see them;
his action sluggish, and yet, if he is so
| disposed, he can hold his audience spell
bound for an hour, an hour and half,
or two hours.
The 25th anniversary Of this confer
euce was celebrated on Saturday, on
which occasion, among other interesting
! exercises, the Scotch Elder Maiben eX-
! planned how he entered the ring" as
bold Presbyterian minister, to engage in
! pugilistic duel of words with Elder
| Orrick, about two years ago, and how
Elder Orrick squared off and knocked
him down at the first round, while he
rallied and was again knocked down,
till he threw up the glove, and became
an advent preacher.
On the Sabbath there was an aavent of
the preachers Of this gospel to all the
pulpits Of Waterbury, averaging two
and fraction to each pulpit; and on
Monday morning there was Second
Advent of preachers and laymen to the
depot, where they made the welkin ring
with their parting hymns. 1t is said
that the bystanders among the worlds
people looked as if they thought a new
order of things was arising.

centrated intelligence is obtained from

FATAL AoCIDBNTs.-Mr. John Mullen,
an employee of the Railroad Company,
was run over by passenger train lea
wing the depot at st. Albans, last Thurs
day evening, and SO terribly mangled
that he died about midnight. The pre-
else manner of the accident is not known,
but it appears that he was standing on
the middle platform in the depot, and In
some way, perhaps in an attempt to get
on the moving train, he was thrown be-
meath the trucks, and three cars passed
over him. The deceased was an honest
and industrious Irishman. and his death
brings sorrow to wife and three chill
dren.

always on hand for animals with young
and for change of diet II an animal gets
off its feed
Seeds.-Look out in advance for good
fresh seeds of all kinds. Try all that are
the least doubtful, in pots or boxes of earth,
carefully attended, and neither too wet nor
too dry Never keep seeds in alr-tight or
very close vessels
Sheen should not be confined in close
stables; but, except during storms, should
have the range of large stock yard, or iot'
Feed in wel-constructed racks, and feeding
troughs. Turnips and beets fed freely, are
very fattening and more economical gener-
ally than corn. Whatever grain IS red,
should be given regularly; even q very
samll quantity is well, II 1t can, be fed SO
that each sheep shall get its share SAT-
ought to be kept constantly where the sheep
can get at it. If, however, it has not been,
they must be gradually accustomed to It..
The notion that sheep do not need water In
winter, is a mistake. 1t Is much better for
them to have access to water which does
not freeze.
S,oine.-The quantity of manure which q
few hogs will make, If plenty of muck and
litter be thrown from time to time into their
pen, and the whole be kept under cover, Is
very great. Hogs, except for breeding, are
of no value to Eastern farmers, with few
exceptions, if they he not employed to
work over manure. Feed some raw roots,
potatoes, tunips, etc., to breeding sows.
Timber Land Clean the wood lots of
crooked, broken or hollow trees, and Sc
cure firewood in this way, and do it at the
present season.
Tools.-Get in your orders for mowers,
and all heavy implements early, so as to be
well and promptly served; and delay no
needed repairs.

.sThe war sam Continues,

The way this war ''drags Its slow length
along. is acurious phenomenon well worth
studying. 1t is, however, one by no means
of rare occurrence in human history.
"A civil war continued for years with vary
ing success on each side, when IL becomes
question Of mere subjugation on the one
hand, and of servile submission on the
other, is usually protracted for an indefinite
period, and is never finally settled Till
mutual satisfactory concessions and COM
promises are made.
There Is morbid curiosity and feverish
anxiety in the public mind to hear the war
newsof the day. whoever hascarefully
noted years, or six months history OF
the present awful war tragedy now being
enacted In this country, may form pretty
correct idea of the remaining acts. The
events of one period are essentially the
repetition of those in another. The Presi-
dent announced, in his last message, that
1.-THE war still continues" and he might
have added, with eeual truth, that it con-
tinues with the same phase and general
results as hitherto.
1t cannot but be apparent to every man,
not infatuated by mere partisan delusion,
that there can be no end to the war under
the policy and management of the present
Administration. The Executive branch of
the Government is doing nothing but TAX
ing measures to protract the war for the
avowed and single purpose of carrying out
the schemes of the radical wing of the
dominant party. Congress has less than
two months of its present regular session
left, and it is loudly called upon by the
leading Administration organs TO take; up,
as its leading aim and object the proposed
amendment to the Constitution for the en-
tire abolition of slavery in all the States
But constitutional amendments will not eff
feet the abolition of slavery. Like other
mere partisan measures, infringing upon
long established and admitted constitutional
rights of the States, they will serve to pro-
tract the war, and postpone the day of
peace and reconciliation. 1t would seem,
from their acts, whatever they may, for
mere political effect, say to the contrary,
that the leaders Of the party in power have
determined that that day shall never come,
II they can prevent it.

Making il,e Most of Ii.

We find the following paragraph in an
exchange. If the facts did occur as stated,
we hope there is mistake in the name OF
the State in which, it is alleged, they took
place:
A respectable farmor, tlIvugii violent
Republican, in southern Ohio. ascertained
that his daughter had become practical
miscegcnationist, by the astounding fact
that she gave birth to a mulatto baby. The
author of the misfortune was found to be a
strapping big nigger In the vicinity. He
was arrested, taken to a provost marshal
and disposed of for the sum of $1,000, and
sworn into the service of Uncle Sam. The
'sgrand-pa" of the little c0ntraband took
nine hundred dollars of the money, gave
the nigger a hundred dollars ''for his
trouble" and returned home feeling that
the dark prospect before his family was
somewhat frightened.

NIr. HDayton's Successor.

Among all the names urged to succeed

have under the present Administration, it
knows of none who would fill the position
more respectfully than JOHN c., and con-
cludes its article thus:
Let us have Fremont and Jessie at the
