The Frozen We'll.

| One OF the most remarkable facts known
In this country Is the existence Of "a wei In
| Brandon, Ruthland County, Vermont. in
which ice is found the year round. The
writer visited it in the summer Of 1860 and
learned that in digging for farm well in
the fall OF 1883, before cold weather com
| meneed, frost was fUGhd in the ground about
twenty feet below the surface, and the ground
was frozen TO the depth OF forty feet, where
water was found in sufficient supply. The
veil was stoned or walled up in the usual
way, and the frost unaffected itself imme-
diately on the stones from the surface Of the
water about twenty feet upward. Very soon
1t was seen that well of ice was formed
adhering to the stone wall all around, and
from the surface OF the water to the bottom
OF the well, several inches thick-and this
has remained frozen ever since, summer and
winter. La the coolest part of the winter
the water freezes over the whole surface. and
frequently so hard that it is necessary for
some one to go down and break it to pro-
cure water The last winter almost the en-
tire water in the Well froze solid. and remain
ed so some time.
The writer has visited this well three DIFF
terent summers; the last time but three Or
four weeks since, and each time saw the ice
(which is plainly seen by casting the sun
light down the well by mirror, and was
well informed of all the facts by the family
residing on the same premises, and by friends
in the vicinity TIE only deviation from
the facts as stated is, that sometimes, about
the first At September, the ice has disappear
ed. but for a few weeks only.
1t has been found by digging several rods
from it that the same frozen condition OF
the ground exists at about the same depth.
But none have vet given any satisfactory So
luton of the phenomenon.
In this same town, and within few miles |
of the pleasant village of Brandon, are quar- |
ries Of the purest white marble, iron ore,
kaolin or porcelain clay, and large auanti- |
ties of ochre of various shades of color, all |
of which are worked and sent to market, and |
coal of a peculiar kind. not in large quanti- |
ty, of chocolate color, solid but in it are +
found embedded the remains of nuts of |
kind not known, and the form of limbs and /
branches converted into COAL

The Organization Of q Part OF
Congress,

The House of Representatives, or rather
a part of it. was organized by the election
of Mr.. Coltax as Speaker, and Mcpherson
Clelk. This after individual, the mere
servant of the House, with degree of per.
sonal lawlessness and impudence unex-
ampled, even in this age or brass, assumed
the prerogative of deciding in advance upon
the certificates of members and only calling
such names and such States as his High
Majesty thought proper. He excluded
eleven Southern States from the roll, thus
causing the partial organization of the
House to he the work alone of the Northern
half of the Union. g..... 1
The Southern States which, according to
the Republican the;ry, have never been out
OF the Union, and who have elected mem.
bers of Congress upon the invitation and in
pursuance of the recommendations of Pres-
ident johnson, have been dlsfranchised and
denied their right Of representation in the
national lcounci|s. 1t is thus that the radi.
cal or malignant majority in the House
which backed up the Clerk in his impu-
dence, treats the. policy Of the President.
The organizations which he has set on
foot, in the South have been early and con.
tenptuously kicked aside They have 70.
solved that the South shall not take it's place
w
they will neither allow it to SO out or be in
the Union. ,..a-..
The effect Of this exclusion Of the South.
ern members, chosen in pursuance Of the
Presidents recommendation, cannot fail to
be in the highest degree disastrous aud pre-.
judicial to the reconstruction of the SEQ
tions. 1t is so unreasonable outrageous
a violation, not only of the fundamental law
of the land, but Of all decepcy that it can
not fail TO create, a profound feeling of dis.
gust and indignation among those in the
South who were inclined to be our friends,
and who were pushing un the work of re-
construction. The malignant radicals do
not mean that the Union shall ever be re.
stored. They intend to govern the South
by mere brute force--to reduce it to a con.
dition infinitely worse than that of Poland
or Hungary. Their policy leads to the es-
tablishment Of an imperial dcspoti. m, rest
ing upon the army, and supported by
taxation so heavy that 1t will crush the
energies of oyr people for ages to come.

Ingenuity OF a Chinese Tailor

clergyman who was with the embassy had
occasion to get his coat and pantaloons both
mended before making his appearance at
Pekin. They were SO much patched by a
long residence in land of scarcity of tai
lors and high prices that they were not fit
to be seen; and at Canton he left them to
have a new suit made. He received ut the
appointed time new garments, with every
darn and patch so accurHely true to the
old cloth that nothing but the greater
strength of the new cloth could determine
one from the other. The tailor had unluck
lily conceived that the darns and patches
were 50 many ehlblems Of the Clergyman s
profession. AIHA %. p.'

RAILROAD MEETING AT RICH
MOSD.

The citizens at Richmond held n
meeting on Tuesday evening, the Sth
inst. 1T the office of Geo. Holland,
ESQ, TO consult as TO the best means
of securing the early completion OF
the Cincinnati and Fort Wayne Rail
road. A committee of three was
appointed to draft a petition and cir
late the same, and present to the
City Council, asking that body to
subscribe fifty thousand dollars to
the building of the road. The peti
ton was drafted and was being eX-
tcnsively signed by the leading citi-
zens Of Richmond. If this plan sue
ceeds, tax of twenty-five cents
will he levied on each 800 worth of
taxable property. for five years,
which will pay out the fifty thousand
dollars. We are glad to see this
step taken, and hope it will succeed.
The citizens of Richmond can not
do q better thing for their material
prosperity than to build this road.
Our people desire communication
with Richmond. Her manufactures
are OF the utmost importance TO our
farmers. But without this road We
must look in another direction.
