fiftieth anniversary of Its organization.
The attendance was large, remarkably
large, considering that the celebration
was In the midst OF hay time. or course
the principal part OF the audience con-
sisted OF Glover people, but there was
q considerable attendance from Barton,
and some from several other towns.
Nearly all the Congregational ministers
In the country were present and most OF
them took part In the exercises.
In the forenoon Rev. s. X. d, Perkins,
the pastor OF the church delivered s his
torlcAl sermon, In which after some
statements as to the settlement and
early history OF tho town, he traced the
rise and progress OF the church from
July 18th, 1917, to the present time. The
church WAS organized by Rev. Samuel
Goddard Of Concord, VT, and consisted
OF four male and thirteen female mem
bers, four OF whom still survive. One
hundred and seventy. seven persons have
united with the church, Of whom sixty
three are yet members, One member
has become minister, and Is now pas
tor of church in Berkshire. The Clio
yer church has had three pastors, Rev,
Reuben Mason, Rev. Ora Person, and
Rev. S. X. B. Perkins, and several stated
supplies, though the efforts of one oil
whom, Rev. Levi II. Stone the present
house OF worship was built. After ser.
mon, the audience repaired to the town
hall, where tables were spread with re-
freshments amply sufficient for The
whole crowd. Then returning to the
meeting house an address was delivered
by Rev. Plny III. White. He exhibited
the original diary of Rev. Samuel God
dard, read extracts containing his &C
count o. the organization Of the church
and then spoke at length upon the eX
cellencies of COugregationalism as sys
TEN of church government. The re

Addresses to the children were deliv

THE RUSSIAN AMERICAN TREATY.-The
President communicated to Congress on
Tuesday q copy of a treaty between the
United States and his Majesty the En-
peror Of all the Russias, the notifications
of which were exchanged in Washing.
ton city on the Goth day of June last.
He says:
The instrument provides for q cession
Of the territory to the United States in
consideration Of the payment of 81 300
900, in gold. The attention of Congress
is invited to the subject of an appropri-
alton for this payment and also to that
of proper legislation for the occupation
and government Of the territory as a
part of the dominion Of the United
States,

THE CONSPIRACY CoMMITTEE.-General
Buffers conspiracy committee is already
at work, and on Wednesday Mr.. Quld,
formerly Confederate commissioner for
exchange Of prisoners, was before them,
and was examined with reference to the
responsibility of various Federal officers
for preventing the exchange of prison.
ers. Gen, Butler also questioned him
closely as to the course Of Gen. Grant
in this matter. What this has to do
with the assassination conspiracy is not
clear, but its connection with the vindi-
cation of Butler and his purpose to in
jure Grant is obvious enough. The
whole subject belongs, however to the
Shanks committee, and Gen. Butler will
not probably proceed further with it..
1t is very properly suggested by the Trib-
une that the Shanks committee ought
also to be instructed 10 inquire into the
alleged i'll treatment of rebels in our
hands, with view to melting out equal
and exact justice.

VERDICT OF THE FACULTY.
STIMULANTs INDIs PENsABLE AS MEDI-
CINES,

The most distinguished physicians in the
United States have recently been placed on the
witness stand, and have, with one voice, de-
clared that pure stimulants are valuable medi-
cinal agents This decision of the faculty re-
fers especially to medicated stimuants, ofwhich
the purest and the best at present known Is
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BTTTERS.
Its basis is the alcoholic principle of the finest
rye grown in the United States, and its herbal
ingredients comprise the extracts of a large
number of plants, barks and roots produced IN
various parts of the world, and all noted in the
countries to which they are indigenous for
their powerful sanatiye properties. As an in
vicorant and tonic the value of the Bitters can
scarcely be overrated Hence its extraordinary
effect in fever and ague and intermittents and
remittents of every type. Its ambitious pro-
perties are marvellous. Persons OF bilious
habit, by taking small quantity once or twice
a day, may completely change their constltu-
tional tendency to liver disease, and escape all
the unpleasant consequences which arise either
fir ON the undue sensitiveness or the unnatural
torpidty of the hillary organ. Chronic consu-
patton is eradicated thoroughly and IN very
short space of time by small doses Of this
wholesome regulator, taken night and morn
ing: and for all the disorders which are super
induced by exhaatiors from decOmposing veg
etable ana animal matter in the streets OF ties,
or the mias ma of swampy districts, 1t Is, when
taken as a protective and preventive medicine,
the most reliable of all safeguards.

Beyond the Introduction

CoxsRass.- Beyond the introduction
OF new reconstruction bill by Mr..
Stevens, providing for the reorganization
OF the Southern territories" called In
the title OF the bill "the late rebel
States" by means OF commissioners Sc
lected by Congress, which was referred
TO his committee, and the passage OF Mr..
schenck's Metropolitan Revenue Board
resolution, the House did nothing OF
Importance on Tuesday. The session
lasted but an hour, during which Speaker
Collar announced that he had the best
authority for saying that the expected
veto OF the reconstruction bill will not
be sent to Congress before Thursday.
The extreme radicals were prepared for
another effort to obtain the publication
OF the evidence taken before the judici-
airy committee on the Impeachment
question, but were choked or by mo-
ton to adjourn, pending which Mr..
Eldridge attempted to provide for an
adjournment until Thursday. The
House was nearly equally divided on the
proposition, but it was quietly whis-
pered about among the Republicans that
the Democrats would attempt to raise a
question as to the legality of the pas
sage of the bill over the veto If one Sc.
cular day elapsed in the ten provided
for by the Constitution, which the Pres.
ldent is allowed for consideration of
bills without session, and 1t was con-
sequently voted down, after which the
original motion to adjourn, as usual,
prevailed.
The authoritative announcement that
the reconstruction veto will be sent to
Congress on Wednesday renders it safe
to predict that an adjournment will take
place on Thursday, The Senate may
not agree to the House proposition to
reassemble on the 18th of November in
which case the House will probably sab.
NIT to an adjournment until December,
as many of its most radical members
express the opinion that meeting be,
fore that time will be useless. A large
number of both houses have made pre-.
parations to leave for their homes on
the first train after the veto has been
disposed of, and it is doubtful whether
quorum will be present on Friday.
