Verdict of a jury OF Eseys.

Whcu Dr. Nathaniel Prentice taught a
public school in Roxbury, he vas very
much favorite; but his patience, at
times, would set very much exhausted by
the infractions of the school rules by the
scholars. On one occasion, in rather a
wrathy way, be threatened to punish with
six blows of heavy ferulo the first boy
detected in whispering, and appointed
some as detectives. Shortly afterward one
of the detectives shouted out,
Master, John Zeigler is Whispering"
John was called up and asked if it was
fact. (John, by the way, was fayorite,
both with his teacher and school-mates. J
Yes answered John, 81 was not
aware of what was about 1 was iutent
on working out sum, and requested the
boy who sat next to me to hand me the
arithmetic that contained the rule which |
wished to see"
The Doctor regretted his basty threat,
but told Jchn that he could not suffer him
to whisper or escape the punishment, and
continued:
Il wish l could avoid it, but l cannot
without forfeiture of my word 1 will
leave it to any three scholars you may
choose to say, whether or net shall omit
the punishment"
John said he agreed to that, and imme
diately called out three of his school mates
| The doctor told them to return a ver-
dict which they did, after a consultation
as follows:
The masters word must be kept invi
olate. John must receive the threatened
six blows of the ferule, but it must be in
fictcd on voluntary proxies, and we, tb,
arbitrators, will share the punishment BY
receiving each of US two of the blows"
John, who had listened TO the verdict
stepped up to the doctor, and, with out
stretched hand, exclaimed:
" Master, here is my hand; I will re
ceive the punishment"
The doctor. under pretence of v:pin.
his face, shielded his eyes, and, telling tn,
boys to 60 their seats, said he would thinl
about it. believe he did think Of it t
his dying day, but the punishment va
never inflicted.

The Boston Post in commenting upon a
late effort of the vice president elect, thus
excoriates it and him:
A low, scurrilous, demagogical speech
was that of Schuyler Colfax at Pittsburg,
and if he has any latent sense of shame he
will some day hang his head for it. Such
speech, in the hour of triumph, when, if
ever, mans better nature is warmed and
expanded, marks the wretched unworthi-
ness Of the individual making it. The
volibility of the vice president elect has
been inoculated with fresh venom. Pros
perity brings his character out to view,
and pitiful exhibition it is. The reople
cannot feel at all proud of public officer
| who thus shows that he cannot rise above
his lowest plejudices. They will look TO
General Grant to smother such a mean
spirit as this at once, and to declare that
the new administration is not to proce ed
after the Colfax plan. That phraseolog.
ical rantipole should insult nearly one
half Of the citizens of the United States
by charging them with being enemies of
country's government is of ho account ex-
cept from his having been lifted to prom
inence &c shows he does not deserve The
democratic party will survive his pr,] C
tions, his advice and himself. He had al
opportunity to rise above the pos ition o
the partisan wh ch he has Lie lerto oc,u
pied, and as might have been expected O
man of his caiibre and conceit, lie ha.
thrown it away. He has the branded
word partisan" on his. forehead with hi.
own hand, and that is the little all there j,
of the man.
The above is certainly true estimate
Of Colfax. His speech at Pittsburg is only
eoualled by his abuse of foreigners. when
know nothing in 1855 The Herald
denial of Cofax's know nothing speech or
the ground that it was not his style, pro
dueed smile upon the countenances Of
those who are better acquainted with Col
fax and his style than is the cowardly cul
who will not make direct attack for feal
of controversy.

A village with the above name has
grown up at the eastern end of the Hoosac
tunnel. 1t has postofice, several stores,
couple of hotels, and house of worship.
This village is in the town of Florida. and
has principally grown up since the work
begun on the tunnel in the year 1851.
About that time a mammoth machine was
made at Boston, a. cost of some $40, 600,
which the protector hoped would bore
through the mountain /; but, after pushing
into the rock twenty or thirty feet making
hole so large that 1t receives a building,
it was shaker to pieces. Then drilling by
hand was resor.ed to and blasting in the
old way. At the present time the drilling
is accomplished By steam power. Vor
seventeen years the work has gone on,
with many Interruptions on both sides of
the mountain, until the rock has been
penetrated for mile from this point west
ward, and three fourths of a miles from
the western end Of the tunnel, and three
miles more tunnel remain to be bored.
But in view of the fact that full prepara
tions and experiments have been made to
carry on the work, it may be truly said to
be half done. 1t is now four years since
the state of Massachusetts began to carry
on this work on its own account.
Last winter the legislature voted ST..
600, 900 in money, or bonds, to complete
the tunnel. The work is now partially
suspended until contractors can be found
to complete the enterprise, and who are
willing to give bonds to the amount of
s50O,00O. This enterprise has been per-
sistently opposed by the Boston and Alba
ny, or the old Western railroad managers,
and some others. But if the taxpayers Of
Massachusetts could examine the work sc-
complished, forty-pine out of every fifty
would say, +" 1t ought to be finished at the
earliest possible day" The state having
expended so much it would be folly-yea,
madness, to take any step backward, since
the railroad line from Boston to Troy is
now completed, with the exception of this
tunnel:
The Hoosac tunnel is now matter of
national interest, since it is the greatest
enterprise of the kind that was ever un-
dertaken in this or any other country,
with the single exception of the Mont
Gents tunnel, under the Alps, and Of al
the curiosities to be seen in the states, if
we include the mountain and Deerfeld
river scenery, this tunnel is by far the
greatest event, even while only in part
completed. So it is regarded and hence
excursion parties come to this end and to
the western section Of the tunnel, to see
this. one Of the greatest wonders of the
age.
