| SroSE-y-We were asked by a personal
and political friend the other day, why our
paper did not pose and denounce Cover
nor Stoae for his subsdizing the school and
/! indemnity fun ds of this State to his OWN pur-
poses.
Our reply was that our obssr vations ha d
led us to believe that no injury could be
done the republican party by char glng such
frauds upon ii, and infinitely less by pror'ng
them true We aGmitte that o committee
composed by the political friends of Governor
Stone in a report to the Legislature had fast
ened the fraud upon him: that Legislature
Of his same friends had authorized his prose
sutiea by the Attorney Genl. under an in
dictment already found against him, for the
embezzlement of the funds.
But should he b: convicted the conserva-
tive masses Of the state may shudder at the
consequences We have seen that the con-
vietion Of one leader Of Stones par t., fer
murder, and his exeeution-John Browns -
only canonized him in the great heart
Of the party; and to day, a convicted and
executed murderer and thief he is adored
above all men ever in that party.
Thus we believe it would be with Stone
Convicted ami imprisoned, Fort Madison
would become the Mecca Of the party; re
! leased the enthusiasm ofhis supporters would
give him additional strength; and they
would be further siren sthened by the acces-
sion Of all democrats OF the Butler stripe raj
lying around his standard, A very few re-
puhicans might desert, but not if his pun
ishmcnt for theft looked like persecution
As we love our State We beg the Attorney
Genl. net to procure his conviction. 1t
would insure him the Office the reminder
Of his days, even though it involved the
c.,en dment Of the State Constitution.

Huehes-author of " Tom Brown "-in re-

to the fact that his date is that of the anni-

trasts the influence of that minister with the
influence of the sturdy old abolitionist John
Brown, whose fame etill widens on both sides
the Atlantic, and gives this incident:
On the evening of this anniversary L was
on one Of our bridges, over which a volenteef
regiment was marching back from drill

sho ulders. Tney were singing, as is their
wont-not all together. but by snatches-

II is desirable to establish agencies in the

to secure the employment of this class OF la
bOrers.
1t is stated that there are come 2O, OOO col

whom have fled thither from slavery, during
the war, and they dare not return to such lib
berty as awaits them at their old homes; there
ls not work at hard for them. and they are
wiling TO 20 elsewhere to earn honest bread ;
many are now aided by the Government. but
the greater number live poorly from hand to
mouth.
We now appeal to those who want farm
hands, wood choppers dock hands, mason
tenders, carpenters, black smiths, coopers
coacbmen, house servants, cooks, men for
coaree work about machine shops and manu-
factories, watchmen and female servants.

The ordination of Rev. John X Williams
took place the 22nd ult., and at the same time
the pastoral relations of Rev. S. McKeen, for
mer pastor, were dissolved.
The services on the occasion were very i'm
pressive and affecting, the outgoing pastor sur
rendering bis fock to the care of youthful
man who enters upon his new field of labor
under very encouraging circumstances. The
Church and society have purchased the old
residence of Mr.. Mex sen, the same in wbic
he resided when he commenced his ministry
more than fifty years ago, and are refitting it
throughout for his home May he long live
among and the benefit of his former
lsbors. The singing, under the leadership of
Prof 6. L. Button, was more than usually fine.
The pieces, "The Lord is in his holy temple,
and How beautiful are thy dwellings, from
the Jubilate, new work by Prof. Emerson
we're performed in a manner that would do
great credit TO the best trained singers in the
country.

that has long been felt in this community.
Real es tate is rising in this vicinity very
rapidly. As an instance, one man bought

since sold $4,000 worth of his land and timber,
and has now sold the remainder for $4,000

HowE's SCALEs-The setting up of one of
Howe's Hay scales in front Of d. Dewey DC
Co. g store, affords occasion for brief article
on the rise and progress of what has now
become one of the leading manufacturing
est ablishments in Vermont. Every body Is
now beginning to see that the one indispenea-
be thing to the prosperity of the State is
manufacturers.
Our agricultural interests have reached their
climax, our sheep and horses are not likely to
advance in value, the inducements to our
Young men and women to remain in the
State are lew, and unless manufacturers can
largely be induced to furnish remuDerative
emp mployment for the strong AMI the SKI lful,
the whole tendency of things must needs be
downward. He deserves, then, to be consio-
cred a public benefactor, who establishes
manuiactor, of anything that is useful, and
thus at once gives employment to labor and
produces something that the public need.
That double service to the public has been
rendered, in q distlng uiehed manner by the
manufacturer of the scales to which we have
called attention. Commencing the business
ln a comparative small way in 1856, he has
increased it, till in ten yeas his establish
ment has become. to use the language OF
Bishops History of American Manufactures,

the United States This could not have

rivalry as Howe's scales have had to encoun-
ter, without extraordinary energy, persever-
euce, and good management. Still more
necessary Was it that the article should be
one of superior excellence. aud proved to be
such. That really is the case with these
scales. Wherever they have been put in com
petition with other scales their superiority
has At ones been demonstrated, and that go
con.picuouely that they have for the last half
dozen years regularly taken the FIRST prizes at
all the fairs and exhibitions. Notwithstanding
they have been subjected to the very sever
cot tests, 40 respects accuracy and durability.
