nish ship with a freight homeward, was led,
partly through fear or pirates, to load her
with mummies from the famous Egyptian
Catacombs. On arriving here, the strange
cargo was sold to paper manufacturer in
Connecticut, who threw the whole mass, the
linen cerement, the bitumen and the pour re-

Universal Suffrage with Universal Edaca-

Calhoun before his death drifted a long
distance from his sentiment in 1926. Would
not Congress do well to bring back South

LOCAL AND RAILROAD TIME.

IN the city fathers would put the town time
with the rairoad time, and cause it to be kept
there, they would DO good service to such Of our
people as now aud then travel by rail, and no harm
to any one. Old Soln should complain il any
one but doubt il even be would take the least
offence. The town time is Usually fifteen minu,e s
behind railroad time. The railroad time has been
put forward some two minutes, which will make
the deficiency still greater. Let us have the town
time put forward at once, seventeen minutes
Why not? Come, gentlemen bailifs, what do
you say Cor LEFT.
We guess we can explain the /" slow time Of
the clock. The doves are in the habit Of congre-
eating on the hands to take a ride and very often
they overload them. We have witnessed this
often. wire netting or glass face is required to
protect the clock faces, and either we suspect will
interfere somewhat with sight. Or, kill all the
doves. En-

Cool. - The following conversation was
given us by gentleman Of the city, as hav-
ing actually occurred few days ago. Desir-
ing to engage freedmen on his farm for the
present year, he addressed among others q
stout looking freedman with
Boy, do you want to hire next yeari
Freedman-What sort of work is II, sir
Citizen-l want hands on my farm; can |
get you for one
Freedman with pompous air We'll, no
l don't care about hiring next year. What
will you take for your place
Citizen somewhat surprised - Twenty
dollars per acre.
Freedman-How much would it all come
to at that
Citizen making a mental calculation /
Six thousand two hundred dollars.
Freedman--Y-e-s, what are your terms
Citizen--One third cash the balance in
one or two years, with eight per cent. inter.
est.
Freedman--W ouldn't you make some de-
duetion II was to pay the whole in cash and
gold
Citizen.-Certsinly, eight per cent.
Freedman-Make il ten.
Citizen decidedly astonished Very we'll.
Freedmsn--IH take III
The gentleman was then informed that he
should have the money the next day without
fail.
Look out, ye Legislative Hotspurs the
freedmen will have all your lands in dozen
years.-Oolunlbtis Mi,s Inder.

Personal. - We are pleased to find in the
Madison wisconsin, State journal, Zone Of the
best papers in wisconsin, the following deserved
ly complimentary notice Of Charles NJ. Gay, Esq.
of the Rutland Heraldi
a." Mr.. Gay was formerly resident Of this city.
and partner in the firm of Smith, Keyes r. Cav.
He was considered by his brethren of the profess
sion, as young lawyer Of great promise. Indeed.
VIC heard IL frequently remarked that he had no
superior of his age in the state. He was at one
time prominently spoken Of in connection with
the office Of Reporter TO the Supreme Court, a
position he was admirably fitted to fill. Since re-
turning to his native state, IL seems he has laid
aside the law aud taken up the editorial quill We
also congratulate Governor Dillingham; on having
secured for his Secretary so able lawyer and so
accomplished gentleman as Mr.. GAY His nu-
merous friends in this city wish him success in his
new position

FAITHFUL TEACHER REWARDED. - Some
trouble, and lawsuit. regarding the punishment
of a scholar, occurred last week in The district
school at Orange Centre, in which right prevailed
so triumphantly that it deserves especial notice.
The teacher. Miss Emily Batchelder of East Mont
peier, with the volunteer assistance of one Of the
boys of the school, punished a large and unruly
scholar, (who was endeavoring to make fuss in
the school and defy the teacher) SO severely that
he begged for mercy, and his father prosecuted
the teacher. Messrs. Heath of Plainfeld and
Dickey OF Bradford were summoned for the prose-
cutlon, and Mr.. French Of Barre went up TO defend
the teacher. The doctor being called 10 examine
the q abused" boy, stated that he evidently was
pretty well punished, but be thought not quite
what he deserved An attempt was made to pro-
cure a jury, but man could not be found who had
not - formed an OPINION which was, % that he

Seeing what the inevitable result OF trial must
be, the prosecution finally withdrew the suit when
acollecton was taken up which paid all the expen-
SEES to which Miss Batehelder had been subjected,
and Horace Fi6eld, Esq presented her, in behalf
oil the ladies of the district, with a set of solid sill
yer tablespoons and butter-knfe and made some
very appropriate remarks, indicating that the dis
trict were hearty and true in the support Of teach
or who had fearlessly done her duty. The Town
Superintendent, Rev. Mr.. Frost. Free Win Ban
fist Minister, and an old schoo-teacher, then made
some very entertaining remarks, after which the

LOYALTY OF ALABAsA.--The Washington
correspondent OF the Philadelphia Inquirer
says that Gov. Parsons Of Alabama, who
wants to get on the Aoor OF the Senate to
represent loyal State, on boing closely
questioned by Union Senator, said be would
be frank enough to own that it would not be
safe at present to withdraw all the troops
from Alabama, aud he thought it would be
many pears before it would do. That few
regiments properly disposed would have pre-
vented the secession OF his State, and il would
be the safest in the future to keep military
hand upon them.

SENATOR SUMMERS SUBSTITUTE for the consti-
tutional amendment is declaration that all per
sons, irrespective of color race shall be equal
before the law, whether in the courtroom or the
ballotbox. Granted that this is better than the pro-
posed amendment: the practical question is, can
it be adopted Mr.. Stevens says that not more
than five states would vote for il and the Wash
ington Republican says that only minority in the
present Congress would vote for it. It's, then, a
good text for good speech, but not practicable
amendment.
