Glory to God for the dawn Of this nobler era
Of national life. We have garnered up in a
single hour enough Of moral power 30 carry
US safely through hundred years, and hence
forth, with our material progress. not our
military power, but our moral grandeur, will
command the attention Of the world. The
nation has assembled to higher level.
God is with us in our churches, in our
sanctuaries, in all our religious work; but
lie i. also with us in all this ennobling disci-
plins-and when in the breathlsss hush Of
that solemn chamber, without weapon,
with no attempt at intellectual display, the
nation with calm dignity summoned its
Chief Ruler, and he by counsel was there
peacefully to answer, ! fsl, surely God is
here, Christ is here, and here begins the
nobler moral, spiritual life Of this Christian
Republican hour that is the prophet and
guarantee Of the kingdom Of heaven an
hour that is fitting preparation for ma
,ionsl baptism Of the spirit God, which may
God in mercy grant us through Jesus

DIR. BOYNTON'S SERMON
On the Moral and Religious Aspect of
of our Times.


aspects Of our times"
The Doctor took for his text LIST CORN
D thians, XIV, As Howbeit, that was not frs
which is spiritual, but that which is natural
and afterward that which is spiritual
The apostle refers here to that alien
bracing law by which the universe as
whole and a. It's parts are passing ever from
the lower u higher forms of being, ap
preaching the ultimate perfection. This il
illustrated in the successive steps of crea
ton, and in the different stages Of all life
The human race as a living organism i,
subject to the same law. The first, or car.
nal humanity, appeared in Adam the see
ond or spiritual, was revealed in Christ
the third, or glorifed humanity, will be
seen in the resurrection. The application
of this law is shown in the redemption OF
the individual man, and also in the regen-
Grafton Of nations. IL the earlier hiStur ic
periods brute force was the controlling
prVer-the strong, tough fighter was the
ruler Of the people.
That age has passed forever. One great
step in the worlds progress has been sue
ces>fuliy taken. Samson, Goliath, Hercules
would now command but small respect. En-
cept as prize fighters, they would be of
small use in the modern world. The next
step in the progress of nations was marked
ancient civilizations persisted because they
were only the outgrowth Of the fallen in
tellect, and were separated from the higher
spiritual life. The struggles and expert
ments OF four thousand years proved that
the race has no self-r, covering power, and
that in order to regain the spiritual life man
must be born again.
Notwithstanding the influences Of Chris
tianity, intellect is stillth controlling power
in Christendom, and rei-us separate from
and often in defiance of morality. There
are two methods Of regenerlting a nation
one by the conversion of individuals and
their organization into churches, whose
influence Shall mould the institutions of the
country; and the other, by forcing upon
It's attention great moral questions until the
religious element becomes a force in public
policy.
The above is a brief synopsis of the dis
course up to the point where application
was made to the later events in the life Of !

portion Of the sermon in tItl:

THE WIFE SELLING CAsE.-We
have heard the other side of this case,
which was reported in the Union some
weeks since, on the authority of
Robert and William Ranney of Vince
lock. 1t seems that about a year
ago James S. Drew lost his wife and
the March following rented his farm
to one William WEIGH from Canada,
reserving a home for himself and his
three children on the farm. WEIGH
with his wife and children moved on
and in course of time got into trouble
with his neighbors who made prac-
tice of taking his gate down and an
noying him other ways. The trouble
resulted in his sueing the trespassers
and getting a fine of $40 and costs
on them. This trouble all occurred
on farm which WEIGH owned lying
between the Drew farm where Welci
resided and the John Ranney farm
WEIGH became discontinued and re.
solved to leave. he accordingly solo
his own farm, and made arrangements
with Drew to do his harvesting anC
attend to his farm till March, 1868
when the lease expired, and to take
his pay for work out Of the produce
He left money with his family and en-
gagged Drew when the lease shall hav,
terminated to assist his wife and chill
dren in starting for the West to ioir
him. And this was all there was t.
the wife selling affair. Drew wa
born in Glover, and for twenty year
has lived in Sheffield, and as we lear
from respectable people there, he ha
always stood well with the people an
accumulated comfortable property
In this affair he has been wrongec

The firm of Paddock, Dean d Co.,
st. Johnsbury, manufacturers of SUI
perphosphate and bone meal, is COM
posed of II. Paddock and son anu
Chester F. Dean, all long time re-
sidents Of St. Johnsbury. Dean,
who is a mechanic, in 1861 began ex
perimenting on machine for grind
ing bone, his first attempt being on
what be called grinder, with teeth
similar to those on a file. This fail
ed on account of the oily substance
in the bone clogging the machine. His
next experiment was with knives
which also failed from the same cause.
In 1865 he invented the machine they
now use, consisting of a revolving
cylinder with twelve grooves about
an inch wide and quarter of an inch
deep. In these grooves knives are
attached about three inches apart
with their edges in the circumference
of the cylinder. Acting against the
cylinder is concave cutting table
moving to and from it by means of
set screws, a nd determining the
coarseness or fineness of the neal
After securing his patent Mr.. Dean S
next step was to procure assistance
and go into the manufacture of an ar
ticle the demand for which was so
rapidly increasing. The Paddocks
: were enlisted and put capital enough
into the enterprise to give it a thor
ough trial, which has proved success
full beyond all expectation. This be-
ing the only machine OF the kind il
: this State gives the firm all they cal
5 do. During the first years operation
1869 about thirty tons Of bono
. meal were manufactured. In 1866
about one hundred and twenty-thret
tons of superphosphate was made
J. besides large amount of bone meal
Next year the capital is to be increas
ed $50, 900 and the firm intend to SEM

The Vermont Phoenix, always
paper of the first classas regards the
depth and character of its articles; is
now doubly dear to US, since by its
enlargement it contains greater am
cunt of matter and better, too, than
of old. 1t is of the same dimensions
as the Standard, but printed on small
er type. In our opinion it is the most
lastly printed paper in the state. 1t
has added to it's editorial force an ex-
ira hand in the person of d. B. Sted-
man.
The Vermont Record and Farmer,
neighbor to the Phoenix, has got a new
head, and its acknowledgements
taken his brother as a partner.
We have received the first number
of the Irish Waterman, printed at
Burlington, large eight page paper,
Roman Catholic in its religious belief
and devoted to the interests and the
aims of the Fenians. We wish them
all success in their efforts to secure
the freedom of Ireland, but we have
small hope that it will ever be.

Nh. Editor.-As you have publish
ed some experiments of mine in the
growth of yearling steers, | will now
for the benefit of your readers, give
a statement of an additional expert
ment on pair of steers, to compare
with the ones | sold 2 years ago, for
$1S6 00-weighing 1890 lbs. at %
months old. / have a pair now at
20 IL months old and their weight is
,12O and 1880 making the pair q
$50 lbs, just 80 lbs. over the pair
above at % months. The question
will now be asked what is the addi-
tional experiment? will say the
first pair were fed on skim milk and
tea up to Oct. and then weaned and
fed On hay and run out to grass a
part of the time, and this pair was
fed on skim milk and hay tea up to
the first of April, about one year, and
fed on hay in the barn, and run out
in the shed for exercise and water ;
the rest of the time the treatment has
been the same as the first, fed On hay
cut in June and again in August
This is the difference in the two eX-
periments, and the last has grown
them about rs per cent. over the first
the additional growth at I months
old was 80 per cent. over the former
5 months in the pasture last summer
grew them 342 lbs, while 3 months
in the barn on hay has grown them
31S lbs. over so per cent. above the
pasture. The average price of year
lings now is about $40 per pair, and
these at 8 cents per h., live weight
the same as | sold the first pair, would
be $1,000, and at 7 cents which
could take as soon as | would set the
price, would be over 4 to one. | vii
now ask the question, how long will
the people continue in the old track

a lonely locality while he was on his
way to San Francisco to be married.
The murderers obtained several hun.
dred dollars in gold from his person,
and one of them was subsequently
arrested, but for want of sufficient
evidence the trial was deferred, and
in the meantime he escaped from jail
and fed the country. Lately a man
named Fosset, who had witnessed the
murder and shared the money, nut

Our space compels US to bring the

Among those who did much towards
building up the East Village in Glover
should be mentioned Mr.. & Mrs. Dan.
Gray MARY Fisk who came to this
town in 1911, still living at an ad-
vanced age. Mr.. Gray for several
years kept a hotel, and served the
town as first constable and in other
offices. ora5 mo
In the west part of the town we
hear the names of John Boardman
Esq. and his wife, Timothy Lyman and
wife, Nathan Cutler and wife, Elihu
Wright and wife mentioned as exert
ing an influence for good in the section
which they settled, and where they
spent many years.
In the south west part of the town
have settled several families fir ON
Scotland, as the Andersons and Pat
tersons, many of which have been
good and useful citizens.
Of those whose homesteads still re-
main in the possession of their de-
scendanto may be mentioned Silas
French, Timothy Lyman, Nathan Cut
Ter, Noah Leonard and James Vance.
We close with a brief sketch of the
Clarks, who form quite a portion of
the inhabitants Of Glover.
Silas Clark moved to this town
about the year 1905, and settled on
| the hill which is in an easterly direc
ton from the east village. He came
from Keene, N. H., and as several
other families from that town sool,
took farms near his own, the section,
was called Keene Corner. Mr.. CLARK
was one of the party who was at tn,
