held by Illegal and immoral practices have
a decidedly queer foundation. II is true
that the old adage-Be just before you arc
generous-is very inconvonient one to
practice sometimes but we doubt the pro-
priety of transposing its injunctions, and
reading it-Be charitable before you are
honest.
The blame for this manner of conducting
fairs is due, VIC must admit to the women.
The gentlemen who assist them do so gall
lantly and blindly, abandoning all right to
private judgment when they enter their
service. That their fair captains never sus-
poet themselves of wrong doing in such
practices is because they know their aim to
be entirely unselnsh, and so plainly for the
benefit of q noble cause. If new organ
is to add its mighty volume of sound to
the tune oGhymn and psalm, it matters
not in what manner they raised the wind /;
if new breadths of Kdderminster are TO
stretch adown the chapel aisles, no one need
ask by what device they brought down the
dust. The Spanish. Inqustion was a hor-
rible thing, they wiil admit without sus-
pectng that the logic which upheld that, is
the very same they employ TO justify their
deeds in Charity's sweet name.
1t is true that men reared in the same
way as women, with no knowledge Of their
moral duties as citizens, and with no prac-
teal acquaintance with the obligations of
trade, would act in the same manner, pro-
vided they possessed sufficient jealous, ac-
tive benevolence but for all that, the evil
is one which honest minds must condemn,
and hope to see utterly abandoned by those
whose duty should rather be to cultivate a
respect for civil laws and moral justice.
The one principle of political economy
which women thoroughly understand is
the unpopularity of direct taxation and
the cxpedency of obtaining by circuitous
means what cannot be enforced as an obli-
CATION. Yet one cannot contemplate the
vast machinery of our modern fairs with
without sad regret that such an expendi-
ture of time and strength should be neces-
sary to induce people to be charitable to
the poor and obliging to their friends.
When community sec that any society of
ladies are resolved to abstract Just so much
money from their purses, by fair means or
foul, and know by experience that they
VIII do it, why cannot they save their
wives and sisters all this preparatory labor
and anxiety this wheeding and manuev-
ering, this immodest, persistent begging,
this neglect of daily duties, this inheritance
of coughs and colds, by deliberately walk
ing up to the treasurer at the outset and
paying over their proper, individual assess
ment? Why not initiate the example of
Captain Scotts phlosophic coon, which
dropped from the tree exclaiming, Don't
fire! will come down"

VERMONT.

1t is generally said that Vermont was
named from its green mountains. But how
the name comes is not so generally under
stood. 4 writer in the American Gazetteer
gives Latin ctymology, d" Yer Mons, Green
Mountain" But in "A History of the Rev.
Hugh Peters, \. NJ. * Co." by Rev. Samuel
Peters, LID, New York, 1907, is found
this very interesting account:
"Nerdmont was n name given to the
Green Mountains, in Oct. 1868, by the Rev.
DR.. Peters, the first clergyman who paid
visit to the 10000 settlers in that country, in
that country, in the presence of Col. Taplin,
Col. Willes, Col. Peters, Judge Peters, and
many others, who were proprietors of
large number of townships in that colony.
The ceremony was performed on the top of
a rock, standing on high mountain, then
named Pisgah, because it provided to the
company a clear sight of Lake Champlain
to the west, and of Connecticut river to the
east; and overlooked all the trees and hills
in the vast wilderness north and south.
The baptism was performed in the follow
ing manner and form, viz: Priest Peters
ste cd on the pinnacle of the rock, when he
received a bottle of spirits from Col. Tapln,
then haranguing the company with short
history of the infant settlement, and the
prospect of its becoming an impregnable
| barrier between the British colonies in the
south, and the late colonies of the French
in the north, he continued, we have here
met on the rock Elam standing on Mount
| Pisgah, which makes a part of the everlast-
ing hill, the spine of Africa, Asia and Amer
lea, holding together the terrestrial ball, and
dividing the Atlantic from the Pacific ocean,
to dedicate and consecrate this extensive
wilderness to God manifested in the flesh,
and to give it 4 new name, worthy of the
Athenians and ancient Spartans; which
new name is Verd Mont, in token that her
mountains and hills shall be ever green and
never die And then poured the spirits
around him, and cast the bottle at the rock
of Etam.
The ceremony being over, the company
| descended Mount Pisgah and took refresh
ments in log house kept by Capt. Otey,
where they spent the night with great pleas
| ure.
After this, Priest Peters passed through
most of the settlements, preaching and bap-
tizing, for the space of eight weeks, in which
time he baptized nearly 1900 children and
adults.
Since Verdmont became State, its Gem
eral Assembly have seen proper to change
the spelling of Verdmont, green mountain,
to that of Ter-mont, mountain of maggots."

in either speculatons, business, or the la
Dor of his hands, has a right to select hfs
own market and take such price or prices
as he can obtain, and no organization of
men, either of his class, occupation or any
other, has right to modest him with let or
hindrance. lie has his individual rights
under the law and the law must protect
him.
1t is well that these things are so. Capt.
talists who invest in manufacturing, min
ing, or any other of the great enterprises of
the day and give employment to labor at
fair prices, while benefiting themselves,
are benefting others by giving them such
employment. But, without the employees
the capitalist could do nothing and with
out the capitalist the employees would
have nothing to do. So that they are mu-
tually dependent on each other, yet each as
dignified and Independent as the other, be-
cause each are equally in demand in the
great markets of the world, and steam at
the present day, annihilates distance.

NEW YORK CITY.-One murder, or at
tempted murder, per day, with ten suicides
and any number of garroting cases, robbie
ry with violence and deadly assaults, make
a lively record for New York city in the
month of January. 1t will hardly find an
equal, even in the demoraizing days of the
war, when men were so familiar with shoot
ing for cause that they thought little of
shooting without cause, and rumors of plots
and conspiracies accustomed them to thots
of violence. What is worse, not one-half
of the highway robberies on the streets of
New York are, we are assured, reported in
the public journals. The victims crawl
home and hush the matter up, or keep quiz
ct at the suggestion of the officers of the
law in order to recover their property.
Double the number of violent assaults
which we find published from day to day,
and the list will be n long one--so long that
we may ask with the New York Times,
whose life or property is safe in these days?
Indeed, the facilities for being robbed or
killed are rapidly increasing. One need
not even walk the streets, for the highway
rullians will stab man to death when sur
rounded by his family, or shoot him down
when standing OH his own doorstep. There
is considerable that is exciting, calculated
to keep man wide awake in all this, but
it is unpleasant, even in Imagination, TO
those who are unused to it. But ii is a res
ident journalist, and not a stranger, who
says of his city, that "New York is now as
nearly delivered over to thieves and assas-
sins as any community can be."-Boston

Penn, n. p. Boyer & Co., Editors and Pro-
prietors.
Much has been said and written ON this
subject both in Europe and America. Very
elaborate speeches and essays from talented

generally tinctured more or less with self

scented class instead Of all classes.
Capital and labor are dependent on each
other and should harmonise for the benefit
of both. There should be no antagonism
between them. Capital may sometimes be-
come little too elevated in its assumed
position and appear to look down upon
labor, as if independent oft. On the other
hand labor sometimes assumes to be az
grieved, and knowing its power, when reg
ularly combined, shuts down the gate on
capital and creates a stagnation in business
circles, that is detrimental to the whole
community, itself Qabor) included.
