Enthusiastically morning it com
menced to rain and continued the EN-
tire day. The streets and pavements
were ina wet and muddy condition,
but everybody seems satisfied to suf-
for some inconvenience, II it will only
rain. That is what we want now. If
we could have ten or twelve feet OF
water in the channel, our landing would
once more put on u business aspect,
and our accumulated manufactures
would soon find market. In anticiPa-
ton of rise in the river, we thought
our steamboat men were looking and
feeling better yesterday than they have
for several months. In fact we believe
the whole Gty, although the day was
dark aud gloomy. participated in the
general joy over the steady falling rain.
We trust the storm has been general 50
that we may soon have arrivals and de-
partures of steamers TO report.

ABOUT the time of the destruction of
Mcdonald C Mitchell's Livery Stable,
on Main street, two or three suspicious
looking characters made their appear
ance on our streets. Our police officers
had their suspicious that+hey were here
for good object, and have kept close
watch on their movements. An indi-
ViduRI outside of the police depart
meut was used as detective to ferret
out their designs. The result proved
that he succeeded admirably. Yester-
day morning, between and . o'clock,
the detective and John w. White. Jr.,
Effected an entrance into the liquor
store of G.. w. Franzheim, on Market
street, by means OF a false key. An
arrangement had been made between
the detective and officer Scarborough, TO
have several of his assistants stationed
near, ready TO pouuce on Mr.. White at
the proper time.
AMER getting inside the building
White proceeded TO lay in supply OF
cigars, and bad secured few boxes
when the officers seized him and con-
wy MN ~ lAAAs NHbSloaS ~ -
o'clock, he was brought before Judge
Johnston, and an examination OF Mr..
FranzheiTn and Sergeant Scarborough
as witnesses, developed the facts sub.
stantiRlly given above.
White Is young man, apparently
not over "a or % years of age, well
dressed, and has the appearance of a
regular Plug Ugly. He wears his hair
closely cropped, has black eyes, low
forehead, and altogether fills our idea
of dangerous, bad character. When
brought into the police court room, he
nut on bold front, as if determin-
ried TO stout it out, but when informed
he would be sent on for trial at the Cir
emit Court, he wiited and gave way to
to tears. An examination of his trunk
revealed nothing that would afford a
clue to his true character. We are in
formed that 1t contained only liberal
supply OF clothing, a saw, plane and
one or two,other implements such as
are used by carpenters.
White was committed to jail until
Monday nSxt at IL o'clock, when he
will have his final examination preyt-
ous TO trial before the Court in Decem-
Der next.

VERMONT ScALEs AT THE PARIS EXPOSITION
Vermont has reason TO be proud of the position
held in the international exhibition by the Scales
which were presented, coming in competition as
they did with those Of France, Prussia, Germany,
Austria andGreat Britain. The largest exhibition
was that Of Messrs. Fairbanks, The display of
Howes Scales was not as large as theirs, but were
maniiestly equal, If not superior in some respects
silver medal awarded TO the Fairbanks Gold
and Druggist Balance Scale. The Howe Compa-
ny had no balance of this kind on exhibition -
The two came in competition only on the large
Scales, and when they really came in competition,
they were both awarded Bronze Medals, the first
Medal being awarded to the Howe Scale Compa-
ny. The Scales of the Howe Company were fine
Iy wrought and splendidly finished The large
variety by the Fairbanks Company probably made
an impression upon the jury, and they unanimous
iy awarded them a medal.
In the examination of the " lowe Scales the
jury were much interested in the simplicity of the
levers and the accuracy of the Hay Scale, as was
proved by the weighing Of men first upon it and
then upon the small platform scale. They also
saw the advantage possessed over all other Scales
in requiring no pit, and being arranged with
friction balls TO efIeetualy prevent any abrazion
or wearing Of the knife edges, and in view OF these
superior points, awarded medal TO the Howe
Scale Company for Scales-Rutland Herald

THE DREAM oF.LIFE.


ny G. d. PRENTICE.
Twas but bubble--yet twas bright;
And gsyly danced along the stream
OF life's wild torrent in the light
OF sunbeams sparklng-like dream
OF Heavens own bliss, for lovelness-
For Aeetness like passing thought
And ever Of such dreams as these
The tissue Of my life is wrought.
For have dreamed of pleasure when
The sun of young existence smiled
Upon my hayward path, and then
Her promised sweets my heart beguiled,
But when | came those sweets to sip,
They turned to gall upon my lip.
And have dreamed Of Friendship, too
For friendship. had thought, was made
To be mans solace in the shade,
And glad him in the light; and so,
fondly thought 10 find friend
Whose soul with mine would sweetly blend,
And as two placid streams unite,
And roll their waters in one bright
And tranquil current TO the sea,
So might our tranquil spirits be
Borne onward TO eternity;
But be betrayed me, and with pain
woke--to sleep and dream again.
And then dreamed Of Love, and all
The clustered visions Of the past
Seemed airy nothings to that last
Bright dream. 1t threw a magical
Enchantment DER exstence--cast
A glory on my path so bright
seemed to breathe and feel its light;
But now that blissful dream is DER,
And have walked to dream no more.
Beyond the fartbest glimmering star
That wrinkles in the arch above,
There is a world OF truth and love,
Which earth's vile passions never mar.
Oh, could snatch the eagles plumes
And soar to that bright world away,
Which Gods own holy light illumes
With glories Of eternal day
How gladly every lingering tie
That binds me down to earth I'd sever,
And leave for that blest home on high,
This hollow-hearted world forever.

A CHEAP FILrER.-No water ought to be drank
which is contaminated by leakage or infiltration
from sewers, cess-pools or foul bitches. When
possible, the water supplied in towns or derived
from surface wells ought always to be filtered be-
lore use. A cheap filter eau be made by taking u
common earthern hower-pot plug the hole at the
bottom (not too tightly with piece of sponge,
then strew the bottom Of the pot with powdered
charcoal one inch thick Over this put layer Of
clean sand. over that again an equal quantity OF
coarse gravel and few loose. small stones now
set over jug OF bottle and f il up with water.
The water which drops through the hole at the
bottom will be found cleansed from lis impurities
and sweet to drink. This filter is admirably adap-
ted for use at sea. being easily made and Kept IN
order. II is said that water from stagnant pond
may be sucked through charcoal with impunity.
