HAPPY NEW YEAR

In looking back over the past year and
the three others preceding it, and then at
the glorious prospects of the future to our
country, we can but exclaim, Happy New
Year While the present generation
lives, and in the generations yet to come,
the year Just closed will be annus memo
raJiHs-the memorable year of our coun-
try's history.
We. as a people, can cherish the recol-
lection that in the year of our Lord 1860,
an awful civil war ended by the restora-
ton of peace, unity and love. On the
summit of such joy is also raised crown
of rejoicing that by the voluntary act of
the people of the United States, including
States in the South, as well as in the
North, fundamental law has been ad-
ded to the Constitution, forever forbid
ding involuntary servitude. We shall
continue to celebrate, and with increased
enthusiasm the anniversary of our Ma
tional Independence, but the thanksgiving
of the Fourth of July will hereafter be
deepenod and hallowed.
Thus, by the blessing of God. the two
great boons of peace ard universal liberty
have been bestowed in this great year
AS its last sands have run out, and We
stand by its grave, we would lift W
heart and voice to Him who both wrought
our deliverance with His own ri ght hand,
and brought US up out Of horrible pit
and miry clay and established our going
upon rock For all this aud mere, let
us praise Him while we have any being.
Hoping that when another new year
shall come around, still further steps for
the advancement of the human race in
all countries shall have been taken, we
repeat the wish that all may enjoy year
of unalloyed happiness.

THE moRaIsTowN OYSTER SUPPER.

The citizens of Morristown convened
at their Town Hall. on the evening of the
2Sth of Dec, to the number of about 200
and had good, lively, social visit Oys-
tiers were plenty and no one went away
hungry. The result of the affair carries
to the destitute Freedmen the sum of $50,
and the friends of the cause are still ma
king efforts to increase that sum. If
every town in the loyal North would con-
tribute as much in proportion, how much
suffering would be prevented.
The meeting was eulivened with splend-
ed music, under the charge Of Prof Whip
pie. and stirring speeches were made lin
reply to the many toasts that we're read,)
by Rev. John Gleed, Capt. c. j. Lewis,
Capt. Frank Kcnfeld. Geo. w. Hendee,
H. H. Powers, and Rev. Mr.. Bartlett 1t
was good to be there. Hon. John West
has been untiring in his efforts to bring
about such noble result Such men
never falter, or turn back in good
cause.
We have been fighting for four years to
extend freedom to all that is human
within our borders, and now that such an
object has been accomplished shall we al
low these poor Freedmen to suffer for
want of bread? 1t is hoped that every
true, loyal man in the whole North will
open his pocket book at once, and contrib
ute his share for the advancement of this
cause for suffering humanity. A little
effort in each town will bring about good
results.

aught but good report of this new

the same success
1.-The concert of the 'Lamoille Vocalists

was a decided success, Though the going
WIS not the best, yet the house was we'll
filled at an early hour. Most of the sing
efs were suffering from severe colds, but
their music was carefully selected, and
was sung in manner that was both
pleasing and entertaining. One piece en-
titled, The Liberty Bird was sung ad-
mirably. and it's thrilling strains are still
echoing in our ears. The other pieces
were sung in mastery manner, and the
performers displayed a good compass OF
voice and musical taste, and we do not
hesitate to pronounce them as good a
Troupe as ever sung in the State We
feel assured that the gentlemen would
meet with a hearty welcome if they would
furnish some of their adjoining towns

Mr. EDITOR II have just read a copy
Of the Erening Post. | think its editor
is one OF the strongest, lucid and logical
writer's of our day. His editorials
have plain aud forcible bearing on the
subject he treats. end some times very Sc
we're. Each sentence seems closely packed
with meaning, which always holds the
mind to the subject. and leaves an
not esiy forgotten. Thus
the reader gets much in a small
space that may be lain up for future USE
The editorial on the amendment of the
Constitution in the Pest dec. l9th) is
one that will be read with delight by all
we'll wishers to the country. 1t sets forth
clearly the justice of the amendment.
1.-The formal assent of twenty-seven
states to the repeal of the law of bondage
has snapped the last link of the letters
which CALLED the limbs of four millions
of God children aud our brethren"
Hereafter we can emphaticaAy say free,
oA free, and no more human bondage with
in the boundaries of our free govern
ment.
After giving credit when credit is due,
we say seriously, that we do not coincide
with the editor in his article on Mr..
rhaddeus Stevens, NJ. q. from Pennsyl
vania, whom he sets up as The FACT
rous STEVENS" Mr.. s. may have said il
Congress some things the Republican par
" will not assent to. Grant this, anc
yet we believe judging not from wha
Mr.. Stevens has said, but from the words
of his critic, that the editor of the Pos
is quite as fanatical in his description o
Mr.. 5. as he would have us believe Mr.
s. is on Reconstruction. We think Mr.
Speaker Colfax better qualified to judg'
as to Mr.. Stevens Fitness for Chairman
on an important Committee, than we d.
the editor of the Post. Nor do we be
lieve that the pheasant face of the Speak
, er" has been put to the blush "by tn
badness of his selection. " If the article a
question is truthful in its representations
the constituents of Mr. s. have disgrace,
themselves by giving such "factious
man seat in Congress. 1t seems to u
8 that no candid reader will fail to see i
. the article an overweight picture. We d
not believe that Mr. Stevens wishes to b
understood to say in Congress or anywher
{ else, that it is not enough for the Soutt
e ern people to submit to the laws of OF
v 1overnment.-"tbey must also submit
I our whims." We might go on, but enoug
