The surrender of Bazaine and iall.ot Metz,
reported with tersc b7cyity in the King OF
Prussia despatch Thursday night, Is fully
confirmed by later reports. The only French
army, organized and trained sufficiently to
cope with the highly disciplined hosts Of
Prussia, is lost to the Republic by tlis sur
render, and the forces which held il in block
ade are released to swell thelegions operating
against Paris and oyerrunning the French
provinces. 1t Is impossible TO say at this
moment what were the real causes Of this
surrender of an army of a hundred and Jwen-
t. thousand men. We have had reports
through Prussian sources Of famine and pes
/ thence raging among the army and the gar
rison, and have seen them as authoritatiyely
denied by the French. Even the German off,
/ cial papers did not anticipate an early sur
render. believing that with the stock Of pro
visions accumulated in Metz before the in
vestnent Of the city, and the large captures
Of stock which Bazaine has on several occa-
sions effected by his sorties, the defenders
could hold out for at least two months lon
ger. The suspicion viii inevitably occur to
many that political reasons have had as much
to do with Bazaine's surrender as any merely
military causes. The effect, however, will
be the same, and must hurry on the approach
of peace between the two countries The
King Of Prussia has si.nifei bis willingness
to listen to the suggestions Of the neutral
powers, regarding peace negotiations; and
it seems reasonable, therefore, to expect that
the approaching interview between N.
Theirs and the King, at Nersaille-, will re-
suit in the settlement; Of some basis for Uego-
tiations to this end. An early peace is high
" probable, aud the main question now Is
whether it will be proclaimed before or after
the fall of Paris

STATE OF VERMONT.
BY JOHN v. STEWART, GOVERNOR
A PROCLAMATION-


A Christian people should make frequent pub
lie acknowledgment Of the Dune GoodHes'. Es
peclally does it become US 10 render our humble
and hearty thanks to the "6iver Of every good
and perfect gin" for the signal blessings He
has vouchsafed to US, as q people, during the past
year.
No wasting pestilence has invaded our border
Our tranquility has been undisturbed by war o.
civil commotion.
Under the wa.chfal guardianship o.. a Just, free
government we continue to enjoy the transcendent
and assured privileges Of civil and religious free
dom. Our industries have been literally rewarded,
and an abundant harvest crowns the year.
I do therefore, and in accordance with the rever-
ed custom Of our fathers appoint THURSDAY,
THE TWENTY-FOURTH DAY OF NOVEMBER
NEXT, a. day Of PUBLIC THANKSGIVING AMI
PRAISE. and recommend that all citizens abstain
ing on that day from their accustomed labor, dc
unite in thanks and praise to our HEAVENLY FA
rHEs for these manifold expressions Of His Infinite
Love.
Given under my hand and the seal Of the
State, in the Executive Chamber, this twenty
eighth day Of October in the year Of our Lord one
Thousand eight hundred and seventy and Of the In
dependence q the United States the ninety -ffth.

EOIds to nav HgpGs.

A bill has been introduced in the House by
Mr.. Sade of Middlebury, providing for an
issue Of six per cent. bonds Of the State, TO an
amount not exceeding one million dollars, run
ming fifteen years, which shall be exchsngeaole
" for all bonds falling due in the years ISL
1874, 1876 and 1873" Should the holders OF
such bonds refuse to exchange them for the ne"
bonds. then the Treasurer is directed to sell Tor
money at not less than par, such amount OF the
new issue as is necessary to take up the OLD
bonds. The bill also authorizes the Treasurer
to purchase gold enough to pay in gold the
bonds and interest due in 1871, issued before
the passage Of the {" Legal Tender Act" by Con-
gress.
We are entirely opposed to this measure Inc
bonds falling due in II, IA, '76 snd 10 cor
stitute the entire funded debt Of the State we
certainly can see no need of providing now Tor
S99, 900 of bonds falling due eight gears hence
or for S25O,0O0 falling due six years hence ;
or for S245 900. falling due four years hence'
With a continuation Of the wise policy inausu-
rated Of providing the means by sinking iunu
to psy OF those bonds as they mature al VIII
be taken care Of without trouble. The only
question possible, as ii seems to US, Is as 10 'he
$3.50 900 of bonds falling due next year 10
meet those there is already in the Treasury III
the sinking fund, Sl96. 900 ; in bonds siS'ooO
and in cash something over SlOO'OOo' 'ne
proceeds in large part of recent extensive sa'eS
Of arms, for which the State had no use or need.
For the balance remaining let the State lay
the not burlensome tax necessary and pay
them off at maturity The credit Of our stsIe
is very high in the commercial centres anu 81
will agree that it should be kept So But to
propose to the creditors Of the State TO accept
new bonds n place Of tn cash which was pro
missed them, is not the way to do IL 10 sell
bonds of q new issue to raise the means to psy
an old issue Of the moderate amount soon to
mature, il not the way to DO # all We trust
the Legislature will lend no countenauce 20 the

Mortuary Statistics of Vt, 1858.

Editor Of the Free Press and Times;
The closing paragraph of the article in your
paper under the above caption, seems to me cal
culated to convey different impression from
what you doubtless intended. You say "to some
other needed corrections, we may call attention
hereafter" "Corrections" imply errors, and
as YOU DO not point out any errors in your arti-
Gle, it is fair to presume that you did not md
any, and that you did not intend to snege that
any would actually be found in the report The
figures snd statistics sl belong to the year 1865,
and not 1870 The statements snd differences
are all based upon the statistics Of that year The
comparisons made between different portions OF
the State in regard to heslthfulness, are all based
upon the population as given in the census OF
1860. The census of 1870 was only talked oil
when those comparisons were instituted. Inns
correctness or incorrectness should therefore, IN
fairness, be tested by the figures of that census
and not of 1870. If in such examination you
find errors which needs correction" l should
most cheerfully accept your criticism but re
spectfully protect sgsinst the figures ststisucs'
statements or comparisons Of the registration re-
port for 1865, being brought to the test Of the
census Of population which was not in existence
when they we're written. Your attempt 20 show
Burlington to be very healthy city by the cen
sus Of 1870, is well, but it is difficult TO see how
you thereby show the deductions drawn from q
different census and from the statistics Of another
year to be Incorrect Please accept thanks for
the complimentary illusions in your article.

The State Of Pennsylvania seems bound to
take high rank among the lights Of the world.
From lighting all quarters Of the globe with lts
natural oil, it is lighting itself with natural gas,
obtained from wells sunk apparently on some
thing of the artesisn plan. With such gas the
town of Erie was lit Wednesday night, the gas
being obtained by the Erie Gas Company from a
veil near their works. Thirteen Of these wells
are nov in successful operation in various parts
of the city, and are used mostly to furnish fuel
and light to manufactures. The average DEF tn
at which the gas is found is about $50 feet, and
the wells yield each an average Of 10000 cubic
feet per day. The gas is said to require no puri-
flying, escaping from its reservoirs in condition
fit for immediate use. Every we'll sunk has
proved success, and the gas is rapidly being
introduced into private houses. Its greatly re-
duced cost over that manufactured from coal
will probably bring it into universal use in al
towns lucky enough to be built on soil Of the
same peculiar fertility Of thst Of Erie.
