REMARKABLE -Betrothed
to three Brothers.-The Americas (Ga.)
Courier relates the particulars of case
in that county in which the bride was be-
trothed to three brothers, and married
to two Of them, which is rather remark
able. On the 9th of August, 1866, a
young man was married TO a young lady
living few miles from Americas, and
on the same day was attacked by con-
gestive chill, which terminated his life
on the following Saturday, the bride fol-
lowing him to the grave in her wedding
suit In August, 1867, another brother
obtained a license to marry the young
woman, but ON his way home, rejoicing
in happy anticipation of making the
worthy widow of his lost brother his own
bride, he was caught in heavy rain,
and arrived at home with his clothing
thoroughly saturated, from which he was
taken with a congestive chill the same
evening and died the evening previous to
the marriage, which was to have taken
place the following Sabbath. Again, in
stead of listening to the merry ringing
of the marriage bells, the death knell
was heard and a funeral procession took
the place of the marriage feast. Some
time during last month the third brother
Of the deceased procured license and
was happily married to the twice-bereav-
ed lady.

The GENERAL COUNCIL IN ROME
Preparations are making for the great
Ecumenical Council to be held next au-
tumn in Rome, the first for three hun
dred years. A building is now going up
in the left arm formed by the ground
plan Of st. Peters /; in this place there
is to be an amphitheatre of an elliptical
shape its woodwork alone will cost near
ly sixty thousand dollars. 1t is to be
hoped that more authentic record of
the debates will be given to the world
than we possess of those in the Council
of Trent. Should reporters be admitted,
which is not likely, they will have to
brush up their Latin, as the proceedings
will take place in that language.-Lip-
pincotts Magazine.

TEE GovERNoRsHlP.-Th Windsor
Journal says:
Some of the newspapers have been
very busy of late in helping the people
to a nominee for next Governor.
We haveno fault to find with the name
mentioned, but If the people are to do
the voting, it will be perhaps no more
than fair to allow them ito make their
own selection of the several gentlemen
in Windsor county, who are eminently
qualified for the position, and whose
friends may havesomething to say, when
the question is pushed home.

The Next Governor.

Mr.. EDITOR: | have noticed in some
paper an article copied from the Free
Press, under the caption" The next
Governor of Vermont" The writer as
sumes that "public opinion on the east
side of the State is concentrating pretty
strongly and surely, on Gen. p. 1. Wash
burne of Woodstock" 1t is quite anus
ing to take view of the sources from
which he derives his assurance. lie
saws, cit was discussed at the last session
of the Legislature" / am not disposed
to doubt the correctness OF that state
ment. The length of the session, and
the well known habits of certain men,
bers are quite corroborative. But was it
not very premature, and little out OF
the province of that body?
Could there have been any settled
conviction at that period? The writer
further says, that sit had more active
discussion at the recent Convention at
montpelier 10 nominate Censors." In
my view, that was most wonderful oc-
casion for the agitation of that subject,
What portion of the State was repre-
sented? What was the political charac-
ter of that Convention Was it not made
up of discordant elements? Allow me,
Mr.. Editor, to inquire how some of the
prominent members of that Convention
stood upon this question? Were Mr.
Cain and Atkins decidedly in favor of
Gen. Washburn? If SO, :" the east side
of the State" may be regarded as rather
doubtful. / was inclined to regard the
article alluded to, as rather presuming,
or forestalling until the writer affirmed
at the close, that it was simply an ex-
preston of public opinion to say there is
little doubt that Gen. Washburn, if he
lives till the nominating Convention
meets, will be tie republican candidate
for Governor" 1t would seem that a
Convention was unnecessary and super
hous, k the sentiment, or preference of
the people was already so clearly, and
fully developed. In my judgment, the
intelligent, independent constituency of
Vermont will deliberately canvass this
subject for themselves at the proper time,
and act according to their own best
judgment, unawed by the Montpelier
Convention
Let no one understand me as intimat-
ing the slightest opposition to Gen.
Washburne. / have known him long,
and cherish for him very high regard.
| appreciate the valuable services he has
rendered the State, but have not given
this subject careful or special attention,
and / am confident the people general,
have not.
There are other good men son the
east side of the State" and / doubt not
the people will make wise selection
without any special direction or guidance
from any quarter.

Stokes in the District.

At Huntington. in the Western Dis
trict, on the 18th, Col. Stokes said, ad-
dressing a considerable crowd:
"lf elected Governor. as | certainly
expect TO be, j will enilanclise every
man on Gods green earth who will
come up and ask for it." And turning
to Governor Sentcr sail: L" Ent'ranchisc
cvery man in the State. and no man will
give it Il more hearty endorsement than
will. aye sir. will say Amen. am
the first man in the State belonging to
the Republican party who ever advocat-
ed extending the franchise. The BOYS
who wore the grey owe me a debt of
gratitude for forcing Senter and Brown
low to come out in favor Of giving them
their votes"
From the above extract from Col.
Stokes Huntington speech it will be
seen that he has improved very much
since he was here at Athens on the 18th
Of June. We thought change would
come over the spirit of his dream be-
fore he got through the canvass.
