From the woman's Journal.
Observation-Disclosures

The Vermont Constitutional Conven-
ton has rejected proposition to give
the ballot to woman, by vote of 2Sl TO
4. They fouted all discussion of the
question, and voted it down with the ut
most alaerity. No one cognizant of the
bigotry, narrowness and general ignor-
anee that prevail in Vermont will be
surprised at this result. 1t is not a pro-
gressive State, button thecontrary. Great
stress has been laid ON the fact that
1" Vermont never owned slave, and
from this it has been argued that the
Granite State is and has been especially
liberty-loving. But during the two brief
visits we made to the State last winter,
we were told again and again, by Yer
mont men, that the only reason for the
non-introduction of slavery was the i'm
praetiesbility of that form of labor
among the Green Mountains-that sla-
very could never have been made profita-
bic there, and that this, and not prinei-
pie, and heroic love of freedom, pre-
vented Vermont becoming a slave State.
Nowhere, not even in the toughest
and remotest West, have we met with
such vulgar rudeness, ill-manners and
heroic lying, as we encountered in Yer
mont. The lecturers who were invited
into the State by the Vermont Woman
Suffrage Association, composed wholly
of men, were in many Instances left I'M
supported by them, allowed to meet the
unfrequently rough audiences as best
they could, to pay their own bills, and
to manage the campaign as they might,
AT the very first intimatiou ofopposition
on the part of the Montpelier Argus and
Waterman, and the Burlington Free
Press-an unworthy trio of papers that
appear to control the majority-many
members of the State Association show
ed the "white feather" and either apol,
ogetically backed out of the canvass, or
ANONYMOUSLY kept silent in the back
ground. There was therefore nothing
like thorough discussion of the ques-
ton, no fair meeting of truth and error,
not even an attempt to canvassthe State.
For, not ambiti> us to waste their efforts
on such fiinty soil, the men and women
who were invited to labor there shook off
the dust snow of Vermont from their
feet, and turned to more hopeful fields
of labor.
Bellows Falls times. [volume] (Bellows Falls, Vt.) 1856-1965, 1870-06-24

Last winter some of the women suff.
rage campaigners, wrote home fine let
tiers of their prospects, and especially Of
their great success at their first meeting
at Montpelier. We thought then they
would have a different opinion of Yer
mont after the election, which opinion
has now come in full earnest,-worst o.
all they cut right and left at their own
friends-a sample of which we give
elsewhere. The people of Vermont es-
pecially the women, will judge for them
selves, as to the charge of "bigotry,
narrowness and general Ignorance"
combined with "rudeness and Gilman
ners." The charge that Vermont was
never anti,slavery from principle, but
only because slavery could not be made
profitable here, is perhaps worthy O.
some of the advocates Of woman sui
frage, but this style of calling names and
making faces, is not calculated to give
a very elevated idea of their cause, much
less of its advocates.

MURDER AND RoBBERY.-A French
man about twenty-five years old. named
Charles Champagne, recently hired out
to George W. SWEET q Co. of Troy, who
are working the old Burden Iron Mine
in SALISBURY, VT, to chop wood on the
mountains, some eight or ten miles from
North Bennington. His father and sew
eral brothers were engaged on the same
job. SWEET & Co. have gang of chop.
pers and charcoal burners on the noun
tain to supply fuel for their iron furnace.
About three weeks ago Champagne was
paid three hundred dollars. He owed
some money to Mr.. Milo Huling of N.
Bennington, and left his clearinghouse
on the mountain, stating that he was 60
ing to North Bennington to pay the debt.
He did not return, and his friends hear
ing nothing of him for week, conclud-
ed he had gone to Canada. Friday af-
ternoon, the 10th inst, some men going
through the woods on the mountain about
mile south Of the place where Cham
paigne had boarded, their attention was
attracted by a very disagreeable odor.
Making investigation, they came upon
the body of Champagne, badly decom-
posed. He was recognized by his cloth
ing. Decomposition had advanced so
far that it was impossible to say from
the slight examination whether the body
bore marks of violence or not, but the
fact that it was covered with stumps.
stones and brush, is pretty conclusive of
murder. The pocket book which con-
tanned the $500 and which he was known
to have when he set out for North Ben
nington, could not be found.
