PERSONAL.

Hon. James Davis, of St. Adams, 4 well
known and esteemed citizen Of St Adams,
father Of Wilbur p. Davis, Esq, of the St.
Adams Transcript died in ST. Adams on the
Dist inst, in his saith year. Judge Davis
was former partner Of Judge Adds in the
law. He was elected delegate to the Con-
stitutional Convention in 1929, and in 1880
a member of the Executive Council of the
State. He was associate Judge of Franklin
County in 1913 and 1871 In 1915 he was
elected Judge Of Probate, and reelected in
'46, A, 40, SO, 50. In February, 1859,
whilst attending the funeral of a Mrs Gym
thia Penniman as pail bearer, he was Sc
verely injured by the overturning of the car
riage in which he was riding, and by fall
in about n year afterward, the neck of his
left thigh bone was fractured, by which acct
dent he was mainly confined to the house for
the remainder of his life He passed his time
in reading, writing and study. One fruit of
his writing was "reminiscences of St. Alba1s
by an old inhabitant,' published in the
Transcript. His last illness was short and
painful. His funeral took place Wednesday
afternoon.

toms half comic, half earnest, and extraya-
CANT diatribe on - Smoking" in the last At
lantic, will call forth a smile from many lips
that still cling to the seductive weed with
fond infatuation. The inveterate rivalship
between tobacco and women is thus put
Smoking lures and detains men from the so
ciety of ladies. This herding of men into clubs;
these dinners to which men only are invited, the
late sitting at the table after the ladies have
withdrawn, the gathering Of male guests into
some smoking-roOm, apart from the ladies Of
the party-is not the cigar chiefly responsible
for these atrocities
One of the subtle mysterious effects of tobac
co upon the g male of our species is TO olsen
chant him with regard to the female. 1t makes
us read the poem entitled Woman as though it
were only piece of prose. 1t takes of the
edge of yirility. If it does not make man less
masculine, it keeps his marculinity in a state Of
partial torpor, which causes him to look upon
women, not indeed without certain curiosity,
but without enthusiasm, without romantic eleva-
ton of mind, without any feeling Of awe and
veneration for the august Mothers Of our race
1t tends to make US regard women from what
we may style the Black Crook point of view The
young man who boosted that he had seen the
Black Crook farty-seven times in three months
must have been an irreclaimable smoker. Moth
ing but the dulled, sensualized masculinitv
caused by this peculiar poison could have blind
ed men to the CHASTITY and haggard uglness of
that exhibition. The pinched and painted va
cancy Of those poor girl faces the bony hor
rors Of some of their necks, and the iabby re-
dundancy Of others the cheap and tawdry
splendors the stale, rejected tricks of London
pantomimes three or four tuns Of unhappy
girls suspended in the air in various agonizinc

not justify the conjecture, l should be disposed.

ST. ALBAxs.-At the village corporation
meeting ofSt. Adams, the other day, the
head fire warden reported that the village
had an engine, house for it, and g four or
five large wells, " and that by an additional
appropriation of $1,000 to be expended most
" in increasing the number Of wells, they
would have as good a supply of water for
extinguishing fires as Burlington had at an
expense of $50, 600" We think if the gen
tlcman had been here on Saturday to see the
handsome streams thrown from the MIGRANTS
over four story buildings, he would have been
obliged to own that in some respects our sup
ply just a little exceeds that from the St Al
bans wells. Moreover our water works have
thus far cost us but $50 900.

Sheridan's Endorsement of Grant.

Sheridan7s Endorsement Oh UTdnt'
A correspondent of the Ohio State Journal
lately visited Gen. Sheridan, and prints, by
permission, a report of his talk. Some items
in it are of interest -
- The papers report you, general, as hay
ing said that Grant was more radical than
yourself how do YOU make that out - -
said So returned the general, % and provs
it thus When first took command Of the
fifth district. Gen. Grant sent me an order
to allow no man to sit on jury who could
not take the 'iron-clad oath. mildly remon-
trated against this, and wrote to the general
requesting modification of the order, SO
that all who might vote might also sit upon
Il jury. This he did accordingly, and 1t was
for this very radical order and its modifca-
ton to suit me that | said he was more radi
cal than myself.' The oath referred to re
auires man to swear that he never bore
arms against the United States, or acknOwl-
edged allegiance to the Southern contederacy,
OF gave 10 the enemies of the United States
aid, comfort, or encouragement. 1t Is,
therefore. called the - iron-clad OATH But
Sheridan found many who could not take this
oath, who had been forced into rebellion, and
who had been clothed with the right of suf-
rage, and to this class he very properly ac-
corded right to sit upon the jury.
- Is it your opinion that Grant did all he
could to sustain You - = Undoubtedly,
was his reply. Everything did was under
direct order from him, or under his indorse-
ment and approval To fall out with me,
was to fall out with Grant himself y
d" Will Grant certainly be a candidate for
President - =. Not by his own choice,
promptly replied Sheridan 4" but if he ac-
cepts the nomination | believe he will do so
from motives of duty to his friends and coun-
try, in the spirit Of sacrifice and patriotism,
for which he is so remarkably distinguished.
- VIII the congressional policy of recon
struction succeed >" Another Whit at his
pipe and his answer was as ready as an old
time statesman. Of course it must sue

was mustered into the military service as q
soldier. his right to vote was decreed. In

of the citizen-the defense of his country

CONGRESSIONAL. Mr.. Blaine, Of Maine.
who is one of the ablest members Of Congress,
takes the ground that, according to the pro
visions Of the loan act of June, 1864, Con-
gress cannot issue a sufficient number Of
greenbacks to redeem the so bonds That
act limits the amount Of greenbacks to S400,-
100000; and, the proviso being part Of the
loan contract, it cannot be changed without
breach of faith. If this De so, Congress can
not add above $4,000, 900 in greenbacks to
the currency.

Gen. Logan propose to provide by law for
a more equitable dist rbution of the DEPART
ment clerkshirs. From statement which
he has prepared it appears that of 1882
clerks employed in the several departments,
Maine has III; Massachusetts, l64; Yer
mont, 81; New Hampshire, IS; Rhode Is
land, IS; Connecticut, 70; New York, 4S7;
and 50 on. Only 367 are soldiers. Evident
ly Vermont will lose nothing by more equi-
table distribution,- unless, indeed, it is a
positive damage to any man to get depart
ment clerkship, as we are much inclined to
think it is.
