The Windham County Baptist Associa-
ton met at Pondville on Wednesday of
the past week, and continued It's session
two days. Though it rained almost in
cessantly during the day previous, and all
through the session still there was very
respectable delegation of pastors and lay
men present. and all seemed to have come
up determined to enjoy the occasion in
spite of the rain.
The opening sermon was by Rev. A.
Sherwin, of Brattleboro.
Rev. N. Pierce, of your village, preach
cd in the afternoon of the first day. Quite
a prominence was very proftably given
to devotional exercises.
The reports from the various churches
plainly evinced the necessity of more
prayerful vigilance on the part of pastors
and laymen through the association, which
is the great want of the denomination
throughout the whole State
Only two of the fourteen churches CON-
posing the association had enjoyed revi-
val during the year.
1t is fact worthy of notice also, that
the prosperity Of the churches may be
very accurately determined by their be-
nevolent contributions. Who looks over
the statistics viii be startled by the fact
that those whose membership ranges from
sixty 70 one hundred, md located in good
farming communities, and yet report con-
fributions to missions of only from four to
ten doIlsrr, are also compelled to report
constant decrease in numbers, as well as
an entire want Of anythipgiike vigorous

The Vermont Methodists.

The Methodisis in Vermont have loca,-
ed their " Vermont Conference Seminary
and Female College" at Montpelier
Montpelier raised $20,500 to secure the
school there. With this money the trus-
tees have purchased the United States
Government property known as the hos
pital grounds aud buildings. This pro-
perry includes twenty. one acres of land and
buildings that with little outlay will make
thirty or more modern cottage houses, be-
sides other buildings. Ii this property is
all kept by the trustees, it will prove to
be most profitable investment of so much
Of their endowment fund. This property
cost the United States $4,000. The
Seminary Trustees bought il for SIS, 500.
The balance of the Montpelier local SUBJ
scription, after discounting in considera-
ton of its prepayment, amounts to $1,000
which is to-day at interest.
1t is now proposed to raise 100000 TO
build and further endow the Seminary,
and no subscription win be called for I'M
til s50,o00 are pledged in addition to the
S20,5c0 raised at Montpelier.
All necessary buildings can be put up
and furnished inside of $4,000; so it is
estimated by all. If this amount is raised
in this Methodist centenary year, then
the Seminary win be built. Its partial
endowment is already secured, and in one
year after the $4,000 are raised. the
Seminary will in all probability have an
endowment Of So, 700 or 10000.
The Vermont Methodists expect tc
raise this money-at least $4,000
among themselves and their friends. il

THE BENNINGTON Posr OFFIcE.-We find
the following in last weeks Montpelier Argus &
Patriot:
HEAD oFF.--J c. Cook, radical Of the first
water, has been removed from the Postmastership-
at Bennington, and John Sibley a veteran Demo-
crat, and lifelong Union of the true sort,
has been appointed to the position.
When Atkins, in the above, charges the senior
editor of this paper with being "radical of the
first water" we suppose he is about right; but
the remainder of his text is an absolute false
hood. There has been no change in the Ben
nington Post Office. Mr.. Cook has not been re-
moved, neither has "John Sibley, veteran Demo-
Graf and lifelong Union man of the true sort"
been ushered into the position he has SO long been
an unsuccessful aspirant for. The "central organn
of the Vermont democracy has flushed in the
pan this time to a certainty. There is no doubt
Atkins supposed the thing was al, fixed when he
penned the above flaming pronunciamento but it
is-rumored there is trouble Of some kind, whereof
we wot not, at Washington, and that Sibey's pa
pers have run smack against snag, wheret AT.
kins, Cain s Co., are becoming alarmed, on ac-
count of the " bread and butter" they themselves
had counted on so confidently. 1t would be quite
too bad if after all the plans of these oeaginous
gentry came to grief
While we are on this subject, we may as well
add few lines as to the strategic status of this
affair Of the Bennington Post Office. 1t is I'M
derstood that sibley's papers bear the signatures
of all the Vermont delegates of the first Phila-
delphia Convention, the leader of whom prom
ised him on MS word Of political honor ~ that he
should certainly have the Office On the other
hand it is equally well understood that a certain
:" Conservative Republican influence, residing
oui of the State but concerned in business here
declares stoutly that sibey shall not be appointed
on the ground that he is incompetent The DEM

Smith & Co., just as detcrminedly swear he shall
b appointed They say their word is passed, and
they will not have it impeached By renegade

the madness Of treason already desperate.
Another revelation has been threatened in
Congress; in the Senate of the United
States has been threatened at the White
House since Congress adjourned. Let it
be said once and for ever that the clank of
the slaves chain shall never be heard
above the graves of our martyred heroes,
buried under scorching Southern sun.
Let this political campaign be carried for
ward in the Grant and Billy Sherman
style. Mcclellan is quite too an,iquated.
Don't let us wriggle. Don't let us be
afraid 10 hurt them. Don't let US do any
thing but hurt them till we bring them to
every condition we have laid down. They
dent like TO be hurt any better than any
other people only give them to under-
stand that when we say ultimatrm we
mean just ultimasum aud just nothing else,
and they viii take up our views as fast MS
we can read them out. No men in the
world, think qnite SO much Of Office as
those Rebels and Johnson men. Only let
them see that this Constitutional Amend
ment must become the supreme law Of the
land before one single State can be recon-
structed, and they will take it down at one
gulp, and swear its swee: as honey.

The Soldiers in Council.
GREAT MEETING At rIrTsnURG

1t is easy to see where the great major
ity Of the soldiers arc in the present po-
litical contest. Last week soldiers ma
tional convention was held at Cleveland
in the interest of the democratic party
They had small crowd, were received
coldly by the people, and there were not
half dozen prominent soldiers present,
and this convention finally adjourned by
exchanging congratulations with the rebel
Gen. Forrest, who headed the massacre at
Fort Pillow. There was not a represent
tative from Vermont in this convention.
On Tuesday the great Union National
Soldiers Convention assembled at Pitts
burg, Pa. Thoucands open thoueands
were present amid the greatest enthusi-
asm. Gems. Logan, Devcns, Butler,

higher officers presents Our readers
doubtless all remember the Wisconsin live
eagle which was carried through the war
by Wisconsin regiment. This eagle is
still alive and is now supported by tho
State Of Wisconsin, and when the dele
gates from that State marched into the
convention bearing +" Old Abe " Uhe name
of the eagle) aloft on bis perch, the en-
thusiasm was tremendous, and on motion
of Gen. Hamlin of Maine, "Old Abe"
was assigned position Of honor on the
platform. The convention was called to
order by Gen. Negley, and prayer was
offered by Gen. Moody, formerly Colonel
Of the 74th Ohio. When the roll call Of
States was finished, the whole convention
rose and sang Old Hundred. Afterwards
one hundred ladies sung the Star Span
gled Banner, the delegates joining in the
chorus. L. Edwin Dudley, a private in
the 18th Mass, was made temporary
chairman, and the secretary from, Yer
mont was Gen. VIM. Wells, of Water

There has been sudden collapse in
democratic circles in this State during the
past week. The leading magnates of
Vermont apprehension had supposed
that they we're to have the exclusive
management of the federal patronage Of
the State and had even secured few
appointments. But these appointments
were found to be killing the party with
the people, even more dead, if such
thing were possible, than they were on
the day Of our late election, and the order
now is for these copperhcad lights to take
back seats in the work Of reconstruc,ing
the federal offices in Vermont, whereupon
the grief-stricken expectants are in a state
of great despair, and their lamentations
have hardly been equalled since the days
Of Jeremiah. This certainly may be con-
sidered as another signal instance Of the
odium and Utter detcstation in which
those are held who opposed the war
against the rebellion. Il
The utter insignifcance Of the numer-
ical strength Of the Vermont democracy,
excites sympathy to begin with, and much
less would we rejoice over such pros
trate foe, and in their new and present
misfortune they ought to receive the SYM
pathy and consultations Of the benevolent
everywhere. If the administration as ii
is is to be supported by anybody, it is
the democratic party, and il they are to
be ignored, then it will have no supper,
from any quarter, for the support Of
merely the federal office-holders will be
too insignificant to be mentioned.
Best of all, however, If the President
would only show returning reason, heea
the voice Of the people, and once more
seek counsel from the source which elect
ed him TO the Vice Presidency of til,
nation. But there is no hope Of this, an,
they may quarrel over the spoils of office
but the people, in whom the Presiden
himself has expressed SO much confidence
will soon settle the question.
