The Caucus system.

Hessrs. Editors.-As q citizen of Rut
land, 1 protest against the manner oul
elections are carried on l am not an
office-holder nor an office-seelser, but, as q
citizen Republican, claim the right Ia
express my convictions and place on
record my protest at our caucus and
election customs.
The prevailing custom of raising a
committee of fifteen to make nominations
at our caucuses or meetings for election
OF officers, is custom to be DEPRECATED
not democratic and not in keeping with
the spirit of Republican institutions,
especially when carried out in manner
and form of our last town caucus.
If We must have caucuses, let us have
them week or ten days prior to elections,
that the nominees and their fitness for
office may be freely discussed. Let due
notice be given that the people may have
an opportunity to have voice aud vote
in selecting men t. be voted for. Let the
ap}.OJs a.eettng be nominating committee,
and let the votes taken, as much as
possible, be ballot ootes Until this is done,
no true voice of the people will be bad.
Until we can have b4.los votes in all our
elections, We shall not have the peoples
choice of men in Office. III.

the celebration of lady who is nearly
a centenariau
Widow Lydia Hall, of Green Island,
(Whiting) celebrated her 92d birthday
March the 1lth. She is the only surviy-
ing member of "A numerous family.
In the morning she rode out, made calls
and had social visit with the farmers
wives and daughters. In the afternoon
and evening her friends called upon her
at the residence of her nephews,J j. b. and
Abel Walker, to pay their respects to one
who is a connecting link between two
centuries. Four generations were pre-
sent, the social intercourse and friendly
greetings of the aged and the youth, the
approving smiles of the lovely fair, and
the presentation of her birthday presents
made it an an interesting occasion.
A few months since Governor Page
gave her free pass on the Rutland and
Burlington railroad, as her husband was
the original inventor of the circular saw.
May she yet live to hear the. whistle of
the steam engine in Lemon Fair and take
a ride on the Addison railroad.

closed yesterday, the jury returning a
verdict Ayainst four of them, and two
we're pronounced not guilty, for the rea-
SON that Duffy's testimony in reference to
them was not sufficiently corroberated by
other witnesses The people of our town
will now feel IA sense of relief. and rejoice
that the matter has been ferreted out,
although there is a great difference OF
a, nion as to the evidence given in the
c,sa We should remember that exag-
e,ar,ted ~, temcnts made III reference to
some of the witnesses, should be carefully
weighed and taken with due caution by
the public, a. wholesale denunciation OF
any person is unjust We tr,iNt that can,
dor and moderation will govern our citi

will bc said upon this particular point at

1nent has somewhat subsided
The scene on the bringing in oi she
