This Institution was orga nized under
the provisions of chapter So. Compiled
Statutes, in the year 1857 The Associ-
alton united with the town of Hyde Park
aud erected large and commodious bull
ding on the Court House common, the
lower story of which was finished into
Town Han, and three rooms above for
the use of this Academy, The school was
opened Sept. 10th 1857, under the charge
Of H. Henry Powers, NJ. A., Principal,
Miss Lucy E. Cramton, Preceptress, Miss
Belle G. Sawyer, Assistant, Diana Ii.
Chamberlin, Music. During the Spring
of 1868 an excellent library of about 800
volumes, selected with special reference TO
the wants of the school was purch ased by
the liberal contributions of the citizens
of Hyde Park and vicinity. The school
has been prosperous from the start till
INC breaking out of the war, since which
time, like other similar Institutions, the
attendance has been much decreased.
This school ia centrally located, as its
name implies, and in prosperous times
would receive a liberal share of public
patronage. I

FLOWERS.

Seeing that the ladies' are manifesting
a lively interest in this department, and
mean to make fine display-forally, at
our next Fair, we are reminded that Vick's
Catalogue Of Hardy Bulbs for the Autumn
Of 1867 is out. We suppose that Mr..

cuses, Narcissus Lilies, Snow Drops, Iris,

A PLACE ON BEAUTY-VIcKs TULIP
GARBgN.-0n East Avenue, few rods
east Of Goodman Street, can now daily
be seen sight worth seeing, and which
fills The beholdOr with delight and pleas
ure. We refer to the tulip gardens of
James Wick, the famous florist, of this
city. Over two acres of the finest and
rarest tulips are now in blossom arranged
in the beds by colors, SO as to'present q
magnificent sight-beyond the power of
words to describe On visit to the
grounds, yesterday, from rough ealcula-
ton, it was estimated that there were
from 40, 900 to 10000 tulips in bloom.
aud they will continue to show for three
weeks yet. Mr. Wick invites all to view
his floral display, free of charge. 1t is
expected that visitors will not handle or
destroy the flowers.
NJ. Wick has over thirty acres of ground
in cultivation, and in the course Of year
or two he will make display of flowers
worth going hundreds Of miles to see
The like ofhis tulip garden is not to be
seen in the United States Mr. 'Vick's
seed rooms and business which is very
extensive, and, we are pleased to say, is
yearly assuming larger proportions, are
soon to be removed to the new building on
Mill Staeet, next to the Merchants Union
Express Company's office. One store of
tie lower floor, and the whole of the three
upper floors will be occupied by Mr..
WICK.
thousands throughout the United States
know Mr. Wick will, and know that his
representations in regard to his seeds
most all of which are imported from Hol-
land--arc to be relied upon. A visit to

FROM THE RICHMOND WING.

What some Of Mr.. Johnson's friends
think Of his course ~
"Ekperieucc has long since satisfied Us
that the disagreement between the Presi-
dent and Congress, which has been so dis
astrous to himself, has been much more
calamitous to US, and that longer it con-
tinues, and the more embittered it becomes
the greater will be our burdens and suf-
feripgs. Had he convened congress when
he entered upon his Office, and co.operated
with it in the great matter Of reconstruc-
ton, he would have been Influential in
moulding and directingit. His moderate
views would have been considered and
appreciated, and we would, ere this, in
all probability, have been reconstructed.
Instead, however, of doing this, be dis.
carded congress, claimed absolute power
in the premises, and ezasperated that
body to madness, causing it to adopt
more stringent measures toward the South,
than it otherwise would have taken If
the President, congress and the supreme
court could be brought into harmony
on this great subject it would
be better, we are pursuaded, not
only for the South, but for the whole
country. The longer this quarrel goes on
The worse i will be for us. Let US keep
out Of it."

THE MAINE LAWN EDEN.

The counsel for the State, engaged in a
prosecution of an innkeeper in Eden for
violation of the Liquor Law, one day last
week, is responsible for the following
statement of the case:
Upon the trial it was proven to the
jury, which was composed of FIVE Good
Templars and one layman, that the res
pondent had committed thirteen distinct
offences. There was no doubt or equivo.
cation about the evidence. The counsel
for the respondent admitted that the
crime was clearly proven, but took the
ground that the law was unconstitutional
and that the jurors wero the judges of the
law. The jury failed to agrec-the lay
member being for conviction, while
majority of the Templars were for acquit-
tai !!
Now, we sincerely hope that this state.
ment is slanderous, and that We shall be
authorized by the Good Templars who sat
on that jury to deny'it, But we do not
disguise the fact that we do not consider
it beyond the pale of probability that
the story is true. Our gullibility is get
ting to DO about extensive enough for any
absurdity Indeed, the most absurd expec-
tation nowadays, is to expect men 10 act

THE COUNTY FAIR.

The Cd Annual Fair of the Lamoille
Co. Agricultural Society. to be beld at
Morrisyelle. on the 18th and 18th inst,
promises to be an occasion of unusual in
terest for this county. A liberal premi-
um list is offered. some part Of which we
publish to-day. We have not space for
the whole of it, but refer our readers to
the large posters, which we presume will
be put in several public places in each
town. The malvern Farms" herd will
be on exhibition the first day of the Fair,
and that stock alone will form great at
traction to all who are interested in stock
breeding. The article published last
week upon that stock was only partial
description of it. AS far as we can learn,
unusual interest is being manifested in
all departments of the exhibition, and we
are most happy to see it.

CAMP MEETING.

The public services Of the Camp meet
ing closed on Sabbath eve. with sermon
by Rev. Mr.. Worthipg, of Waterbury,
and short, but earnest and effective hor-
tatOry discourse by Presiding Elder Ray,
We think it matter of regret that the
state of Mr. Rays health did not permit
him to preach during the meeting. He
is man of much more than ordinary tai
ent, has an excellent voice which he can
make heard by large multitude without
screcchiDg, and is candid and honest
debater; but he is now suffering from
nervous prostration too severe te allow Of
his speaking much Wo like the man.
He seems to be faithful without being or
bitter earnest without getting
mad or crazy. Such men can accomplish
good by preaching.

The President and Gen. Grant appear

and the tone of the Press is fast tending
towards impeachment.

The Tribune says;
