Speaker Senate

We clip from the National IHtelligeuceT' Of
the 18th inst, the following editorial, which
we publish with much pleasure. We can
assure the Radical members of Congress
that they would be treated by Southernersi in
a manner that would induce them, IF they
have any souls left to be better men in
future. j trip South would open their
eyes 50 us to enable them to see things in q
different light from what they now appear
il yiew affairs at the South from the rep
rescntations OF Holden and his tribe Of
disappointed party hawks, who are now, or
were a few days since, in Washington, en-
dcavoring to induce Congress to place the
Southern States under colonial jurisdiction.
We say let them come. They will not re-
gvct Christmas Holiday at the South,

ACCIDENT. The steamer Adelaide, which
left Baltimore for Norfolk on Wednesday
evening, ran upon the wreck of the Con
federate ram Merrimac, sunken three miles
down the Elizabeth river. 1t was clear,
moonlight night. and the tide being low,
she stuck fast, sustaining damages to her
bow that caused her to leak badly.
The steamer Georgeanna shortly after
came alongside, and taking off the passen-
gers, arrived in Norfolk about noon Tues
day. This wreck of the Merrimac, on
which, in foggy weather, several steamers
and sailing vessels have struck, lays north
west by north, quarter of mile distant
from Lambert's Point buoy.
A contract was entered into by the Gov
eminent some months ago to remove it,

The GREAT NATIONAL UNION FAIR
This great Fair, which was held in
Washington on the evening of the 9th,
was well attended, and the expected
presence of the President and many of
the prominent men in Congress gave ad-
ditional eclat to the proceedings. From
the Washington Intelligencer we gather
the following description of the New
England tables:
Upon the table representing Massa-
chusetts are displayed fancy articles, sill
yer ware, &c, in every variety. The
walls are decorated with pictures Of
Gen. Grant, Gov. Andrew, Bancroft,
Sumner, Lon2fellow, Everett, Gen. Hook
er, Speaker Colfax, and President Lin
coin. The motto over the table is. Our
soldiers and their children-ever fra
grant In our memories The table is
presided over by Mrs. d. d. Tilton, who
is assisted by Mrs. Bigelow, Miss NJ. E.
Tilton, Miss N. A. Moulton, Mrs. j, K,
Cooms, Mrs. Thomas, and others. One
Of the features herr is an orange tree,
and one of the oranges, containing a
valuable gold ring awaits lucky pur-
chaser.
At the Rhode Island table, which is
presided over by Miss Carrie Reed, as
sisted by number of young ladies,
there is fine display Of fancy articles,
and the space Allotted is handsomely
adorned with portraits and fancy pic
lures.
The Vermont table, which comes next,
has above it the motto, Freedom and
Unity, and is in charge OF Miss Fanny
Hail. Mrs, Hall, Miss Fanny McCloud,
Miss Colby, and Miss Bascom. Every
variety of useful and ornamental fancy
articles is for sale, and not the least
valuable article was maple sugar direct
from the Green mountains which was
readily disposed Of"

The constitutional Amendment.

The reconstruction amendments TO the
constitution passed the Senate on Friday
Speeches were made on that day, in IA
yor of the amendments by Senator'S Hen
dersond aud Yates, and against them oy
Senators Johnson, Hendricks and Nc
Dougall. Various amendments were
proposed by Democrats to stave oil &C
ton, but by perseverance, of the Union
members vote was finally reached at
about six o'clock, P. NJ, which resulted
as follows;
Messrs anthony, Chandler Clark, Con
ness Cragiu. CresWell. Edmunds, Fessendcn,
Foster Grimes, Harris, Henderson, Howard.
Howe, KirkwoOd, Lane OF Indiana, Lane of
Kansas. Morgan, Morrill,, Nye, Poland, Pome-
roy, Ramsey, Sherman, Spmgue, Stewart, sum

ABSENT Messrs. Buckalcw, Brown, Dixon,
Nesmith and Wright-5.
The amendments as passed are sub
stautially those agreed upon in the Sen
atorial caucus, which we have already
published. The House will probably
pass the amendments by the requisite
two thirds vote, and being in the shape
of a resolution, the Presidents signature
will not be necessary.

anticipated. Should they leave before
morning will telegraph you.
Cleveland June 3.-The entire Fe-
MAN navy left here to-day, 1t capsized

ing anxiety prevails regarding the fate
of the mariners. The docks are lined
with washerwOmen, crying and wiring
ing their clothes. GA. B.
montreal, June S.-Ihe city is in
gloom. Another Canadian has fallen in

GOVERNOR GENERAL.
JOhnson's Island, June 3.-The COM

Hon. J. S. MoRRILL.-It will be seen,
from the card we publish below, that
Mr.. Morrill, declines to be candidate
for reelection in the Second Congress
ional District:
To tie ToterS Of the Second C2ngressionel

II may be proper for me 20 say that /
respectfully decline TO be a candidate
for reelection. Proud Of nv constitu-
ency, and profoundly sensible of their
long continued favor, it is right that nv
decision should be authorively announc-
ed In season for them to fix upon some
one to be chosen as my successor If
have been able in any degree to be use
ful in the public service, it is entirely due
to the generous support of the people of
the second district of Vermont, who
have honored me with six consecutive
elections. In retiring from this post of
honor, which I have faithfully endea-
vored to make the post Of duty also, 1
tender to my friends and constituents

day forenoon. Mrs. Barr. wife OF the
barber at the fremont House, poured
Kerosene oil into stove while building
a fire. The flame caught the fluid in
the can, which exploded, and saturated
her dress and the clothes of two of her
children, the Oldest two years old. She
sprang to the door, then returned for
her children, caught one of them and
ran down stairs into the street, eavel-
oped in flames. She rolled upon the
ground to extinguish them, but in vain.
A crowd collected, and the burning
garments were finally stripped from
her but not till her head, face and
whole body were terribly burned. 1t
is not possible that she and the
youngest child will survive. The older
child, though badly burned, it is hoped
will recover. A girl named Elizabath
Fortunot, who was attending one Of the
children, was fortunate enough to
escape with her right arm badly burned
to the shoulder, and her face partially
burned. .. .-..
LATER. Since tho above was in type
we learn from tAe st. Albans Messenger,
that Mrs. Barr and her two children
have died-the mother and eldest child,
early Friday evening, aud the youngest
child, early Saturday morning.

ASSAULT AS Dir. Charles G. Root
was walking along Merchants Row
on his way home at about nine o'clock
Saturday evening, some unknown ruff
fan without any warning struck him,
when near the Central House, with a
club, knocking him insensible. Those
who helped him up, saw the assailant
running of, but he was not secured.
Later in the evening we understand
there were several "free fights" on Mer-
chants Row.

RUTLAND COUNTY INSTITUTE. - The
Teachers Institute for Rutland County
was held in the pleasant town of Dandy
the 8th and 9th inst, by J. s. Adams,
who has for many years SO efficiently
filled the Office of Secretary of the Ver-
mont Board of Education as to win the
hearts Of the teachers, and the respect
and confidence of all true friends of ed
ucation in the State. The Institute at
Dandy was largely attended, and an ear
nestness manifested, indicative of pro-
gress. The public can hardly be aware
of the good which results, and the pleas
ure and profit attending these annual
County Institutes, else more of the peo-
pie would assemble with the teachers !;
and surely no teacher should fail to at
tend. The Secretary, Mr.. Adams, is al
ways practical, and so deeply instils
truths and principles that teachers leave
the institute new men and women. He
also calls upon other friends of the
cause to make remarks and suggestions,
and thus large experience is gathered.
The hospitality Of the citizens of Dandy
on this occasion was unbounded and all
who attended had, I'VE believe, delightful
time. The band came out on Friday
evening and discoursed sweet music, and
a large new flag was raised, which
fioated Ia the breeze till the teachers
bade kind adieH to Dandy.
At the close Of the meeting the fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted
Resolrsa, That the most sincere thanks
Of this Institute are due aud are hereby
rendered to the citizens of this place for
the hospitality so kindly and literally
extended to members from abroad.
Resolved, That the thanks of the Insti-
tute are due to our worthy and much be-
loved Secretary for his untiring labors
in the cause Of popular education.
Resoived, That we tender our thanks to
the several railroads for their courtesy
and kindness in conveying Us from this
Institute to our homes free of charge.

guard over the locality in true military
style, and even should they be over
powered, which is not likely, the guns
of the revenue cutter that lies OFF the
station would not be pleasant things to
