SUNDAY RELIGION. Many protesting
Christians put off their religion with their
Sunday garments. They attend church,
rent pew, and listen patiently to ser
mon on Lords day, and think they have
served God for that week, and the remain
der OF their time is their own to devote to
politicks, pleasure or business, uninAuenced;
thus living six days in the week, life in
compatible with the principles which they
profess. A writer has said if the history Of
such a man were written, the full, long
chapters would show record of activity
aud energy, of tact and industry in their
results; of toll, ambition and success their
object, the mans own comfort. advancement,
honor, credit glory, or those of his family

would be found in a foot note in fine print
on every seventh page, and concluded by

Hon. LUoIUs B. PEcK.-The announce
ment of the death of this gentleman,
brings to memory thoughts of many of
the distinguished members of the legal
profession who have deceased within tie
last few years, one of whom in the
elements of mind which make critical
lawyer, and jurist were his Euperiors.
He was the son of Gen. John Peck, for
many years Sheriff Of Washington
County and was born at Waterbury in
1899. Having received an kcademical
education he entered the Military hcsde-
my at West Point, remaining two years.
After leaving that institution he CON-
menced the study of law in the Office of
the late Hon. Samuel Prentiss, at Mont
pelier and was admitted to the Orange
County Bar in 1924 After short resi-
dence at Barre, he removed TO Mont
pelier. He soon attracted public atten-
tion, and became eminent in his profes-
sion, and at the time Of his death he

PAYING THE NATIONAL DEBT. - The
London Spectator, in alluding to the
prospect Of our paying our national
debt ere long, remarks:
1t will be the greatest deed De-
mocracy has ever done, the one which
will come most clearly home to prop
erty.holders, which will most rapidly
dissipate the idea that Democracy is
distinguished by "an ignorant impa-
thence of taxation" or by an indisposi-
tion to pay up honorable claims. No
despotism will be able to show such 3
financial account, no constitutional
monarchy better one, and successful
finance tells heavily with cultivated
mankind The tide of immigration will
set In with double rapidity, and the
last remaining deterrent to British
North America will have been removed.
Meanwhile, whether the dream is full
filed or not, America, so long as she
raises this surplus, possesses q force OF
which it is difficult TO estimate the ex-
tent, can, for example, spend without a
loan as much as the whole outlay OF
Great Britain upon her army and navy,
can waste every year without increasing
her taxes as much as the loan with
which Napoleon paid for his Italian
campaign.

FATAL ACCIDENT. - The st. Adams

The French Exposition.

The second and last vessel employed
by the Government to send American
products to the French Industrial Expo
sition is now being loaded at New York.
1t is the Mercury, one OF the line OF sail
ing packets. The New York Times an
nounces that America will be well repre-
sented In every department. Applica-
tions for admission have exceeded the
allotted space, and the commission have
been compelled to select such specimens
as they deemed most meritoriOus. In
group six, devoted to Instruments and
processes of common arts" especially,
the demend for space far exceeded the
limits assigned, and the labor-saving
machinery and improved implements for
our country will be favorably, but by no
means thoroughly represented.
This is one of the most comprehensive
departments of the Exposition, add one
in which our patrons will be best typi-
fed. Its twenty classes embrace appar-
atus or implements and methods of min
ing and metallurgy, of rural and forest
work, of hunting and fishing, of agri-
culture, of chemistry and tanning, of
motors, generators and machines in gen.
eral, of machine tools, of sewing and
making clothes, of weaving, Of making
furniture, of making, coloring and
stamping paper, ofmaking carriages and
carts, harness work and saddlery, mate
ais for railroads and cars, OF telegraph
ing, of civil engineering, OF public works
and architecture, and of navigation and
salvage. s.r s...-.,.. ..... g..
An addition to the original plan of
the Exposition has recently been made,
which will furnish room at once for an
increased display of agricultural imple-
ments and of improved methods of ag-
riculture. Our commissioner at Paris
announces that applications for admis-
sion in this department must be received
in due form by the 18th of January.
The American Exposition which is
group one devoted to works OF art, will
consist of s fine collection, chiefly from
private galleries, of the products of our
best artists. The American restaurant
will consist of three sub divisions
restaurant in which food prepared with
our implements will be furnished, bar
in which liqnors, tobacco and cigars
will be sold, and fountain for soda and
mineral waters. From the comprehen-
sive plan of the Exposition, it cannot
fail to be highly instructive and enter
tanning. 1t will prove specially useful
to the people of France, by practically
acquainting them with the improvements
in the whole civilized world in nearly
every department of human industry.

COMMISSIONER WELLS TARIFF BILL

COMMISSIONER WELLS TARIFF BILL
"Perley" telegraphing 70 the Boston
Journal from Washington says that the
Senate committee on Finance has, it is
understood, determined to report the
Tariff bill prepared by Mr.. Wells, Special
Commissioner of the Treasury Depart-
ment. on Thursday. The bill will then
for the first time be made public, anait
will be seen that what has been pub,
lished as an abstract of it was the fc-
titious prod duction of lobby interest, ar
raved In advance against it, but lgno-
rant of its provisions. There are good
reasons for believing that Mr.. Wells Las
impartially weighed the interest OF Oil
parties interested, and that his bill is TAR
preferable to the House bill now before
the Senate. It is not, however, accept
able to some of the ultra protectionists
of Pennsylvania, and they threaten to
have a resolution introduced into the
House on Thursday repeating that sec
ton of the law under which Mr.. Wells
was appointed. There is not, however,
the least reason to fear that such per-
sonal legislation can be carried, as Mr..
Wells possesses the confidence OF 8 ma
iority In either House.

TUESDAY, JANUARY l, 1867.


The Daily HERALD has now been pub
shed almost six years. 1t grew out of
he exigencies of the times and was
tarted as an experiment. Its puolica-
ion has now been continued long
noneh to render it certain that it will
,ereafter be one Of the institutions of

which called 1t into being and gave
support have passed by,-when cur
sntry has laid aside the habiliments

fpeace-we are fully conscious OF the
act that increased eXertions on our
srt will be required to keep up the IN
rest of the paper with its readers, es'
5ecially as it comes in direct competi-
ton with those Of larger means and
from more favored localities. with this
fact in view we are now completing ar
rangements for very much improving
itsyalue, the most important of which

tion from us, and we will only offer our
simple congratulations to them upon
this valuable acquisition, which we
heel confident will not only ensure to our
own benefit but theirs.
We propose in the future to devote
more attention to local and State mat
ters than heretofore, and for this pur-
bose are arranging for correspondence
from various towns where matters
OF interest may transpire to our readers
This with other efforts which from time
to time will be put forth, we trust will
enable us in the future to give oul
readers such a paper as shall be cred
liable to the county and State, anc
which we feel confident will receive
generous support at the hands Of tn
public,
The price of the Daily HERALD will a
present remain the same, viz IS pc

we are looking forward to an early da,
when the cost of paper will be so re
duced that we shall be able to reouc

that a large number Of names ma

during gale, lost her two sailing cap
tains and several of the crew, but the
number is stated in such confused
manner as to leave 1t uncertain whether
four or six, in all, were lost. The
British Parliament will be opened by
the Queen in person in February. Two
regiments have been ordered to return
from Ireland. The Eastern question
causes some uneasiness in England and
on the continent. The reports in rela-
tion to French operations in China are
conflicting. The latest, however, speaks
of the capture of a Corean town.

New CoUNTBRFEIT.-Plate CaptlWed-
Officers of the Treasury Department
have captured the plates of one of the
most dangerous and successful counter
feits in circulation. The counterfeit is
on the legal tender notes of fifty dol
lars, containing the vignette Of Alexan-
der Hamilton. The imitation is said to
be the best ever issued, and the best way
of detecting it from the genuine is to
observe the marginal line of figures
running around the back of the note.
The counterfeit will be found in the
lower left hand corner to contain FIVE
instead of fifty, as in the genuine. The
difference is quite distinct and the cap
ture of the original plate will prevent
alteration, so that this test can be relied
on. 1t is believed that there are large
number of these counterfeits in circula-
tion, and merchants and others should
be on their guard against them.
