A New CIub.-Posters have been stuck
about town this week extending invitations
70 assemble at the Court House tonight
for the purpose Of forming " Young Mems
Democra tic Club" The "White Man "
organization appears to be given up since
hopes of getti."g Badger and Gerold to
vote the Democra tic ticket. The move
ment. however, is a W eek behind time. If
notice of the "Club" had been given for
Friday night of last week, it would doubt
less have been a rousing success. The
most lively, and largest Democratic meet
ing assembled in Elkton that day to hang
Harris, that has visited . the town for years
previous. Their scent was for blood at
first, and they were 10th to give it up
They congregated about the Jail and viewed
the wall as if studying the best mode of
attach, ortrying to spy out its weak points,
but finally concluded the place was i'm
pregnable; for although it was easy enough
to get out of the old Jail it was a more
difficult matter to force a way in. The
place was strong from the outside. From
the Jail the crowd finally adjourned to the
grog shops and such grand orgie as was
held, is seldom witnessed. Their thirst
for blood had to be slaked by rotations Of
wi. isky, and such grand carnival seldom
-lelig, Its the eyes of rum seller. Had the
-"Youns' Mems Club" been called then il
would have been glorious success. But
it is too late. The enthusiasm will never
rise to the dignitv of a club. Captain
uenry has taken the Democratic machine
in ,''and, and the first effort at circumvent-
ing the old stagers was SO successful in the
Primary Meeting on Saturday iast, that
embeldened, sreater flights are essayed.-
The "White Mes" party dies beneath
the uplifted sClub" Cf the "Young Men, -
as the old hunkers succu.nbed to the Cap
tain's strategy. Bully for the Young Men!
No distinction of trace color or previous
condition is made The biIlsare silent on
this important tenet. Walk up Badger
and join the "Young Mems Club to-
night and share Col. Hambleton's free
whisky. That is consideration worthy
to be considered. Free whisky has gained
many Democratic victory.
We suggest that the "Club" adopt fol
it's device: GIVE loaves and two fishes. y

TIE CASE OF MYRoN JENNE.-A
Fairhayen correspondent writes us as fol-
lows concerning Myron JENNIE, sentenced
to the State Prison at the late term of the
Rutland County Court:
Editor Rutland Herald Il see by your
court record that Myron A. JENNIE of this
place, 10 years If age was sentenced to
hard labor in the States Prison for one
year. Assuming that man is punished
more to deter others from committing
crime than to punish the criminal, the
present case affords much food for refec-
ton, and perhaps it were we'll to look at
his conduct for two years past. Ia the
spring of 1869 Mr.. w. A. Bacon was sup
plying the pulpit of the Baptist church Of
this place, and always looking after boys
to do them good. Having encountered
JENNIE, be at once went to the Young
Mems Christian Association and said,
Here is work for you; save this boy"
They Immediately set themselves to work
and one member bought for him q suit of
clothes, for which he paid ST. so; others
went about the country to find him a
home with some farmer. For a time, only
short time, he did better; but soon he
got back to his old haunts and his cup.
In the fall he was arrested for disturbing
a prayer meeting and defacing the walls
of the Methodist church aud sent to Jail.
This spring the authorities of the town
thought beat to let him come home, and
he came home and at once threw himself
into the hands of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association. One of bis first acts was
to deface their new Hall with his knife.
He was offered work by Mr.. Hanger and
Mr.. Ketchum, and all tried to be kind to
him and begged him to forget the past,
and commence a new life. But be would
not work and at last was caught pilfering
from the money drawer of a merchant,
and his reward is l year in States Prison.
