the Burlington Times, shows the estimate
in which Col. Redheld Proctor is held
abroad:
The Republicans OF Rutland held a
large and enthusiastic caucus Saturday
evening, and nominated Col. Redfleld
Proctor for Town Representative. Col.
Proctor was faithful soldier, is man
OF good abilities and liberal mindedness,
and we shall expect that the Republicans
OF Rutland will elect him by good
desl more than their usual working
majority.

IMPORTANT FAcT.-Fill a kerosene
lamp about one-third full Of common
table salt, and then fill the lamp with
kerosene oil, and you have at once an
oil that will burn nearly twice as long
as it would without the salt, and give a
light even better than without it. This
addition OF salt keeps the blaze OF the
oil from smoking, and altogether the
discovery OF this simple act will produce
great saving OF expense to all who try

Interference Of the Great Powers ID the Case
Or Crete.
The result which we foreshadowed In yester-
days HERALD seems 10 have been arrived at
In special cable despatch which we print to-
day we have II announced that France, Russia,
Prussia and Italy are jointly urging on the
Porte the suspension OF hostilities in Crete,
proposing at the same time an inquiry into the
grievances Of the islanders, 10 be conducted by
. joint commission Of the great Powers, includ-
ing the Porte 1t IL perhaps best that the
United States should in the future, a. they have
done in the past keep themselves clear OF oil
European imbroglios- Yet, AZ we have said
before, the case OF Crete Is exceptional, and
considering that we have just received, In the
person OF Mr.. Rangabe, the nrst Greek minister
ever accredited to the government Of the
United States, we cannot consider II beyond our
province to take advantage Of the opportunity
now presented, and as . people 10 give forth
certain sound In regard 10 the merciless and
Ubiquitous war now going on In Crete. 1t
might be introducing = new precedent In the
history Of American diplomacy, but II would
be precedent sanctioned by sacred cause,
and it might be more than justified by the re-
suit Whatever be tho final disposal Of the
island, Turkey must be compelled to listen to
the voice OF reason and humanity.

Vao Ef0osoous - SoO 80 A8osA'
The President seems to be very raNstless.
He has just had run into North Carolina and
Is now about to take another through Rhila-
delphia, New York and the New England
States to Boston. We have no doubt that hS
is as restless Intellectually a. otherwise. and
that h;s tongue Is very impatient Of its forced
restraint He is anxious to be talking, in order
to keep himself out of obscurity. He ia NOT
noticed so long as he is silent. He comes and
goes, and the world takes no heed. Even the
Philadelphia Aldermen will not notice him.
We doubt whether the New York Aldermen
will-unless, indeed, they can SEQ in it
chance to pocket forty thousand dollars out Of
the city treasury. Perhaps he must talk TO
keep before the people, and II he will talk wa
will suggest topic. Here is the great ques-
ton Of the generals in the Southern States and
their powers. Suppose the President give two
or three speeches on that topic, embodying his
own strong views as they were sketched In hls
veto message. The points In that message
would make dozen good speeohes-of ths
kind the people would like to hear ct this
