Kepler thought Gods thoughts after
him. This was his inspiration. 1t
seems to me that Mr.. George Peabody
has adopted the divine idea of beneh.
cence, as Kepler did that of the plane

that holy and blessed communion with
the beautiful "Giver Of every good and
perfect gift"
He is therefore scattering the mamma
of knowledge and strength around the

God showered the mamma In the wilder
ness around his chosen people asking
no return but their right use of the bene.

Looking from this angle, the conclu-
sion to which l come is this that in
every country and every age, In this

TENACITY OF LIFE.-h remarkable
instance Of the preservation of life with
out sustenance for a heightened period
has lately occurred at Ponikau, near
Grossenhayn, in Saxony. On the 8th of
December last, two brothers named
Muschter were engaged in digging a deep
well, when the earth fell in and completely
buried them. A third brother went down
Immediately, but was not able to perceive
the slightest sound, Some miners were
then sent to work, and dag for some days,
but without success and it was so gener-
ally believed that the poor fellows could
not possibly be alive, but orders had been
given that, unless the relatives insisted on
proceeding further, the well should be
filled up, and monument to the memory
of the Muschters erected over it. Eight
days had already escaped since the acct
dent, but the mother of the entombed
would not give up all hope, and some
fresh hands began to work again, though
only in the expectation of finding the
corpses. To their establishment, however,
they suddenly heard from below the words
"Do not strike SO hard" A conversation
commenced, the work was pushed forward
with renewed diligence, and at length
crowned with success.
On the 18th of December, after they
had been eleven days and four hours in
this living grave, the two Muschters were
res, ued and brought to the surface. The
earth that had fallen in had left kind Of
cave above them. Their only sustena nce
during this long period had been the wa
ter that had oozed through the earth, and
a little tobacco which they had chewed
They had a watch with them, which they
had wound up regularly, and were there
fore able to keep an account of the time of
their burial. At first they lighted lucifer
matches to see the time, but when these
we're all used they felt the hands. They
had heard the conversation above them re-
speeding the filling up of the we'll, and
shouted, but could not make themselves
heard. They had also sung hymns to-
gether, and the people at the surface had
heard it family, but being not a little SUI.

The Corporation Meeting.

Editors Rutland Herald - The State
Legislature, at it's last session, passed an
act giving to our village corporation
the same power to divide and change
boundaries and number of school dis
tricts within its limits that the town in
meeting assembled, formerly had. I'M
der the provisions Of this act, two cor
poration meetings have been held, which
resulted in the division of district No.
IS. Now follows another call for
meeting of the corporation on the 9Th
day of February next, having for its OBJ
ieCt the consolidation of all the districts
within the corporation in one. This is
question Of great magnitude, and
should receive the attention it deserves.
The step should not be taken unless
there are strong reasons for it, and the
objections, if there are any, should be
well considered. Now for the purpose
OF calling the attention of the freemen
of the corporation to this movement,
and for calling out any objection there
may be to it, assert that there is every
reason why it should pass, and no good
reason why it should not. District No.
Is has been divided by nationality, set
ting the foreign population by them
selves, leaving them to have such a
school, or no school at all as they please.
The objections to such a division, and
its effects, are too apparent to need stat
ing. That district before the division
was under the control of an element
that did not, perhaps could not, manage
| q school in such q manner as wonld be
of any benefit. They need the aid and
supervision of the rest of the corpora
ton. District No. 20 is fast coming to
the same condition, and the same argu-
ment that now applies to district No. IS,
will soon apply to district No. 20. And
generally, if there was none of the dis
turbing element referred to, the schools
would be very much improved by con-
solidating the districts and putting them
under the supervision which such q
move contemplates.
There is great need of elevating, in a
practical way, the common schools in this
village. Theoretically we all agree but
practically there is but little interest felt
in them or supervision used. II the dis.
tricts are consolidated under simple
but efficient plan it will give sufficient
importance to our schools that we can
not If we would, shirk all responsibility
to them.
There is d committee appointed to
present plan to the corporation when
assembled on the 5th of February, who
I have no doubt, will give US the best
one possible In the meantime, if there
are objections to the move, it would bt
we'll for all concerned if those opposed
would state their objections, that the
subject may be fully before each tax
payer Of the corporation, and that there
may be q full attendance upon the meet
ing.
If nothing more is gained than tht
getting of our people together where
they can mutually talk over the subject
of common schools, it will be Of mach
advantage. 8.

The TARIPR.-"Periey" telegraphs to
the Boston journal from Washington
that the Senate on Friday last worked
six hours in Committee OF the whole on
the various amendments proposed to the
tariff bill by different Senators. No
Senator advocated free trade, and all of
the speakers admitted the propriety of
forming a revenue tariff which should
incidentally protect such branches of
American industry as need the fostering
aid Of the government. But on questions
of detail there was q wide difference Of
opinion, and the Senators, to use the
words OF Mr.. Crimes, disagree as to how
much money shall be taken from the
pocket of Peter, to support and enrich
his brother Paul. New England inter
ests were not especially cared for in the
decision of several important questions.
Bituminous coal, on which the COM
mittee recommended fifty cents per ton,
was fixed at one dollar and half per
ton, to please the Maryland and Penn
sylvania mining interests.
Senator Foster tried in vain to get the
duty on cutlery raised in proportion to
the increase of duties on iron. Senators
Anthony and Sprague were more for
tunste in obtaining an advance on the
reported duty on machinery, which may
be increased again when the bill is out
Of committee, bat they failed to secure
a proviso that machinery already con-
tracted FOR in good faith abroad shall be
admitted at present rates.
Mr.. Fessenden had hoped to have
aRished the consideration of the bill in
Committee OF the Whole Friday night,
and several Senators had agreed to con
Time in session until midnight, if nee
essary, but at about six o'clock one after
another left the Senate Chamber, and al
about seven the further consideration Of
the bill vas suspended for want Of a
quorum.

ACpIcULTUREI FRaNcr The Ion,

AGRICULTURE IN FRANCE.-The Jour
nal del Agriculture says: "The agricul-
tural statistics of France for 1866 are
not very brilliant. The corn crop is be-
low the average. Wine will be abundant,
but Of very ordinary quality. Potatoes
are rottlng in the storehouses; in many
instances fears are entertained Of not be-
ing able to preserve sufficient for the next
planting. Olives will furnish a better
crop than was expected. Tobacco is az
fected with the rot. Walnuts and chest.
nuts have produced the ordinary quantity.
The disasters of the silkworm culture add
darker shadows to the picture ] he cider
fruits offer valuable resource, and sew
al special crops, such as hemp and COLA,
have been good. There is, therefore, some
compensation fer the evil, and above all,
hopes FOR the future"

STEALING The Caedonian tells a
story about Henry Oderkirk, Of Dan
vile. He stole carving knife in Mr..
Browns store, and, on being detected,
gave Brown five dollar bill, with an
abundant assurance Of deep humiliation.
Soon after this Brown missed a lantern
frsm his store, and traced it to the re-
pentant Oderkirk, who forgot to make a
full restitution when he gave up the
knife. Brown then began to mistrust
that Henry was a wicked man, and
handed him over to the States attorney,
who took him before Justice Howard,
who fined him 81 and costs.

BRANDoN.-Mr. Joseph Bushy, an old
resident of Brandon, was arrested on Fri
day last upon charge of uttering, and
having in his possession with intent to
utter, counterfeit fractional currency.
Several dollars, mostly in counterfeit rs
cent scrip, were found in his possession,
all entirely new, unsoiled and neatly ex-
ecuted. His statements were quite con-
Trajectory and improbable, and it Is said
that there is evidence tending to show
that he is connected with 8 gang of
counterfeiters, having their headquarters
in Canada, Bushy has many Jealous
friends who are unwilling to endorse
these reports fully, and it Is hoped he
will be able to explain what now ap-
pears little suspicious, in some way
consistent with his innocence. He was
taken to Burlington for examination in
charge of United States officer.

Washington Items.

The Senate finance committee has
not yet taken vote on the House gold
bill.
The internal revenue receipts are
now steadily averging about half mil
lion dollars per day.
The President decided Friday not to
send In his veto Of the Colorado and Ne
braska bills until to-day. He has held
the Colorado bill back to consult with
Gov. Cummings of Colorado, who ar
rived in Washington Friday night.
Mr.. Patterson reported bill last
Friday, from the House committee on
foreign affairs, providing for aid to the
proposed railroad from Bangor east
ward, as a full settlement of claims
under the Ashburton treaty. There was
also a minority report.
Statements have been sent out that
the ways and means committee of the
H ouse have agreed to fix a tax on
whisky at 81 per gallon after July l.
This is wholly false, as the committee
have not considered the subject.
"A delegation of twenty-one Sioux
Indians from Minnesota has arrived in
Washington. Their visit is for the pur-
pose of effecting amendments to the
treaties now in force between them
rol,-og o,,A tba ITnftaI
Senator Fessenden made a sharp at
tack upon the New York Tribune cor
respondent, Friday, for an alleged mis-
representation of his tariff speech. 1t is
known among newspaper men that there
was no intention to do the Senator in
justice.
The President, 1t is claimed, has al.
lowed the bill providing for universal
suffrage in the Territories to become 8
law. Friday was the last one on which
he could inform Congress Of his vetOiug
it, and as he failed to do so, it is prob
able that he wthholds his signature be,
yond the ten days, in which case the
bill becomes q law.
"A reporter OF the St. Louis Dem
ocrat has arrived in Washington, nav
ing been summoned to appear before the
New Orleans Riot Investigating Com
mittee. He is called to give evidence
before the committee as to the speech
made by Mr.. Johnson at st. Louis, when
Swinging around the circle" In that
speech he is down in the reporters
notes as having charged the fesponsi-
biity of the New Orleans riot on Con-
gress, asserting that it's Republican
members wrote letters to the cOnven-
lions instigating them to get up riot.
The same reporter is also summoned to
appear before the judiciary committee
to give evidence as to the exact Ian
guage used by the President in the
same speech, when be said he would
kick out of Office all those who would
not support his policy. This reporter
has his notebook with him containing
