DEATH OF SAMUEL NICHoLs.-The
death of an old citizen of Burlington who
was for over fifty years resident of this
place, and possessed the confidence and re.
spect of his townsmen, is noted under our
obituary head
!! Capt Nichols was born in Barre, Vt,
on the 7th of Sept, 1892. He was cap
tain of company of the Vermont MALTA
and as such, took part in the battle OF
Plattsburgh. He settled in Burlington
after the close of the war, in 1914 and
forming a partnership with John Herrick,
was, for over quarter of century, the
leading member of the firm. Of Nichols &
Herrick, carpenters and builders, who
bnilt the Unitarian church. in 1916, and
many of the older buildings in town.
During the later years of his residence he
carried on the business of cabinet-maker
and undertaken, until he left the city in
I 1866. Mr. Nichols represented the town
of Burlington in the legislature in
1854. He was selectman for many
year, and as snch, with William ~
Griswold and IL. B. Stacy, laid on what.
was called in those days 1.-THE new road
to Winooski. This was at the. time an
unpopular measure, and even declared i'm
practicable by many leading citizens, but
it has abundantly vindic led the sound
judgment of its projectors. IA politics
Mr. Nichols was always 70 doAocrat, and
took an actiYe part in Politics till his age
and infrmities prevented. Three years
since he had ike Of paralysis from
which. he never recovered, and which
gradually affected his mind. His death
took place on the 18th inst, suddenly
while sitting at the supper table, at the
residence Of his son Sam'l b. Nichols, in
Hammondton, n. J. His remains We're
brought from New Jersey in charge of his
son. and were inferred in the Locust
Street Cemetery, where three of his chill
dren were buried. John Is. Hollcnbeck.

FIRE At NORTH GRANVILLE, y. Y
On New Years i. the midst of the awful
storm prevailing on that day, the resi-
dence Of Mr.. Erastus Monroe, at that
place, was destroyed by fire. 1t is sup

furniture was mostly saved. The build

81 500 Mr. Monroe had entered into
contract for the sale Of the place. bat the
matter has, we are informed, been salts
factorily adjusted. Stormy days seem
to be fated for the happening Of fires in
Granville, for it wars on the stormest day
of last winter that Mr.. Garilner's Cotton
batting mill burned UhUlAIU CLrOll-

Physical Benefit of the Sabbath.


The Sabbath is Goats special present
to the working man, and one OF its
chief objects is to prolong his life, and
preserve efficient his working tone. In
the vital 50 stem it acts like g. compensa-
tion-pond; it replenishes the spirits, tho
elaciticity and vigor which the last six
days have drained away. and supplies
the force which is to fill the six days
succeeding; and in the economy OF ex-
istenee, it answers the same purpose as,
in the economy of income, is answered
by savings bank. The frugal man
who puts aside 4 pound to-day, aud an
other pound next month. and who, in
quiet way, is always putting by his stat
ed pound from time to time, when he
grows Old aud frail, gets not only the
same pounds back again, but good
many pounds besides. And the conscs-
entious man, who husbands one Cay or
existence every week whor instead OF
allowing the Sabbath to be trampied and
torn in the hurry and scramble Of life,
treasures II devou'ly up-the Lord Of
the Sabbath keensit for him, and In
length Of days and hale old age gives
it backswith usury. The savings bank
Of hunian existence Is the weekly dab-
bath A'orfh british Herietc.

The Platform.

The New York Trijuae gives an ad-
mirable analysis of President Grants
inaugural.
l. shall advise Congress-but not
war upon it.
ii. My business is to execute the
laws. A bad law will always remedy It
self when the people begin to suffer from
it.
III. We have had war--now we must
have peace. We have one common
country, and any sentiments of sections
al hatred are unpatriotic.
". Our debt is the honorable conso-
quence Of the war. It is the price we
pay for Union. Not to pay it is crime
only second to treason.
v. We must pay our debt without
equivocation. When we borrowed in
our hour Of distress, the dollars we re-
ceived were gold to us. We must pay
gold unless the contract expressly stipu-
lates to the contrary.
VI. American credit should be the
best in the world Let us stop talking
about reputation and collect the reve-
nues, aid we can make it the best In
the world
VII. am in favor of building rail-
roads to the Pacific. But we must not
issue bonds for that purpose-unti we
resume specie payments. We must no
longer promise to pay gold dollaruntil
we receive a gold dollar. That was
war necessity; it must be stopped now.
VIII. America can never be great un-
til her name is synonymous with Finan-
ciai Honor. Our flag means Liberty 1t
must also mean Faith,
IX. Wemust resumespecie payments
speedily, perhaps not now, but as soon
as we can.
\. We should do unto other nations
as we would have other nations do to
America If countries like England
make Alabama precedents, they only
compel us to follow them.
AI AS for the Indian, conscience
speaks to us. We must see.
XII. AS for the Negro-equal rights
in all the States.
XIII. And may God bless ia all

How Pat Dug the Well.


Not great while ago, - ISishman
was employed in village where hoM Maa
we'll known, to dig well for the public.
The contract was made that he should
be paid certain sum per foot, and war;
rant FREQ supply Of water. At Il no
went with good will, and his daily pro.
gress was watched intently by the inte-
rested parties. Early aud late he delv-
ed away faithfully, deep down In the
earth, full Of confidence in the early
completion Of his labors. He had reach
cd the depth of about twenty feet
and soon expected to 'strike water"
Early in the morning, Pat returned 10
the scene OF his lahors, aud, horrible to
tell, it had cavcd in, and was nearly
full lie gazed with rueful visage upon
the wreck, and thought of the addition
al Labor the accident would cost him.
After a momeut's reflection he gazed
earnestly around aud saw no one strr-
ing; then quickly divesting himself Of
his hat and coat he carefully hung them
Oh the Wiudlass and speedily made
tracks for II neig hboring cmineuce that
