The plan of the Washington Library Com
pany of Philadelphia is to offer to the public an
interest in charitable institution by offering
stock in shares of one dollar, for which certi-
fcate is given with an engraving fully worth
the money paid. As still further inducement
to have the shares taken up rapidly, every
stockholder is promised present of some
value in addition to his stock certificate and
picture. The funds thus secured by the sales
of stock are deposited with Messrs. George A.
Cooke & Co., Bankers, No. 80 South Third street.

known to the citizens of Brattleboro and
vicinity, hung himself in his barn on
Thursday. He was discovered by his
son about noon, life being entirely ex-
tinct. He had complained of being IN

the part Of his family, and no reason is
known for the act.

morning fire was discovered in the upper
story Of Merchants Exchange Block, on
Merchants Row, In the room occupied

lishment of Messrs lCole & Kingsley,
and though for while the indications
were favorable to an extensive conf a.
grafton, the flames were subdued, and
the engine and hook and ladder CON-
panies, which were out and ready for
action, were ordered to return to their
headquarters, their services not being
needed. The amount of domage done
was trifing.
Yesterday morning about 2 O'Clock
the residence Of David B. CHANNEL on
the Mendon Turnpike, about one mile
from this village, was entirely consumed
by fire. Mr.. CHANNEL was alone in the
house. (his family being absent on Wis
it) and when awakened was so much
suffocated by the smoke as to with diff
Guilty apprehend his danger, and in few
moments must inevitably have persisted.
He succeeded, however. in removing a
part of his household effects; but his
bedding, clothing and numerous smaller
articles, the accumulation Of years, were
with the house destroyed. The barr
and its contents were saved. Insured

On the cap are carved two closed

open volume. This design is unique
and exceedingly appropriate, indicating
the life Of the scholar. The monument
is not placed directly at the grave Of Mr..
Bates, which is a few feet to the East,
and is pointed out by plain tombstone
bearing this inscription,
Rev. Joshua Bates, D. D.,
Born 1776,

He is surrounded by his family. Be-
tween the monument and his grave his
two wives are buried; the first having
died on February 7, 1926, twenty eight
years before, and the second August II,
1864 little more than a year and q
half after his decease. A substantial
iron fence surrounds the enclosure.

on account of the unpropitious state of
the weather the procession after being
formed at the College, proceeded under

editor of the Middlebury Register,
directly to the Congregational Church.
After music by Halls band, prayer
was offered by the venerable Charles

THE TRUE Commenting
upon the reported object of Gov. Pat

Leave the Executive and Judiciary of
the United States to fight and settle
our status in the United States. With

neither be territorialized. nor be long

BENNETT COMPLIMENTS BEAUREGARD.
The handsome speech Gen. Beaureeard
made at Magnolia to the Congression-
al eXcursionists, has been highly com
plimented by the New York Herald.
The Herald, with CLEAN of com
mon sense, honesty and justice, such
as we have not seen emanate from q
Northern Republican newspaper for
some time, says:
General Beauregard is incapable OF
practicing petty deceit, and what he
says may be relied on. He is, more
over, Immensely popular at the South,
and as good a mouthpiece for those
who recognize his leadership as any
man from the Potomac to the Rio
Grande. We know that his speech
made most favorable impression up
on those to whom he addressed 1t, and
that with the echo Of his last wore
there arose in their minds feelings o.
confidence and reinsurance. To thi,

ton, are DESTROYS of peace and con

GENERAL EARLY TIRED OF EXILE
Elk Confederate Gen. Eorly is in Tor
onto, Canada, whence he has adj
dressed letter, published in the Win
chester (Va) Times, of which the
following is an extract:
God knows how well love my ma
tive State and all her unfortunate sis
ters of the South, and how cheerfully
my life was risked and would now be
yielded in their defence; but, to all of
us, there are some spots peculiarly
sacred. With me, the first among
these is the place where [ was born
and where now repOses the remains OF
my mother ; the next is Winchester,
the plans around which were watered
by the blood OF so many of my brave
comrades, and where now so many
true women weep over the graves OF
the fallen.
1t is sad, sad indeed to be an exile
from my country, and still sadder to
mourn the loss of the most just anC
sacred cause for which man ever
fought; but there is some comfort il
knowing that the struggle which de
vclOped so much herOism on the par
of our soldiers, and so many virtue!
in our women, has not been all il
vain and wherever / may wander
will bear with me the proud consola
ton derived from the knowledge tina
my countrywOmen, who were so faith
full aud devoted during all the trial:
and vicissitudes of our dreadful con
test for independence, now that it ha:
gone against us, remain true to th'
memories of the dead Power an(
money may procure costly monuments
and testimonials to commemorate the
names of those who fought for thu
successful party, but all the power anC
wealth of the world cannot command
so rich tribute as that paid to The
memories of the heroic dead of tn,
Confederate armies by the tears o.
the women of the South.
