Following these reoitations came a large
class In beginners in Latin. We doubt If
a class in Latin can be found In any insti-
tuition which, after bat one terms drill,
can excel this. This examination was
the best exercise of Tuesday morning.
The trustees and patrons of the academy
may we'll be satisfied that its classical de-
partment could be under no better diree-
tion. Upwards of thirty-fve students
have attended this department during the
present school year. @ s.-~l y
r Tuesday afternoon was opened by an
examination of class in arithmetic.
This class was large, and the recitations
were very oreditable to both scholars and
the preeeptress under whose charge it has
been during the term.
Next came class of twelve III pbysiol-
ogy. Every member of this class deserves
a particular eommendation for his or her
excellent recitation. The reCitations were
SO precise that lack of time prevented any
one from finishing the topic assigned.
The examination was closed by the
French elass, under the direction of Miss
Clara II. A. Duboc., 1t was listened to
with much interest, and the ease with
which these students rendered English
sentences in French, and eonversed in the
latter language, showed the great advan-
tages of learning any language under the
instruction of native teacher. To many
of those present this was the most inter
esting recitation of the day.
At the close of the examination Rev.
Philan der Bates of the examining COM
mittee expressed their appreciation of the
present management of the academy in q
few words of criticism. The large num-
Der of visitors present heartily joined in
his eommendation.

My Dear Clark Your favor with
notice of the death of Judge Colburn, is
received. I have never been more dis
turbed with any death outside of imme-
diate connections. Judge Colburn was
one of the first men had the pleasure of
meeting after my removal to Vermont,
in 1856, and from that dav to the time of
leaving the State in 1864, Judge Colburn
was my fast and earnest friend. knew
him az few men knew him. He took me
into his heart and he made me willing
listener to his story of life, and when
saw by a telegraphic dispatch in our
Saturday Morning Journal, that Judge
Colburn Of Vermont was dead, felt that
had lost strong and near FREUD, and
that Vermont as well as the country at
large, had parted with man whose value
and worth few knew.
Judge Colburn was a solid, substantial
man of the old school, the like of whom
few are left. He wasted no words. He
spoke always what he felt, and never
used language for evasion or unmeanine
compliment. During my connection with
the Vermont State Agricultural Society
as its Secretary. my four years of Legisla.
tive life in the House of Representatives
and Senate of Vermont, and pending the
acceptance of the mission to Germany,

feel that one of the strong ties which |
bind me to this world was broken in the

REoPENING OF THE CENTRAL House.
1t gives US pleasure to announce that
the inhospitable and forbidding aspect
which the Central House has presented
since its close some weeks since, is soon
to be changed to its old appearance Of
life and cheerfnlness. Maj. j. A. SAILS
bury, its former genial and popular land
lord, proposes to open its doors again TO
the public on the first of March, and in
preparation for this event he has had the
interior of the house thoroughly renovated
from basement TO attic, which has made
such change in its appearance that its
former guests will scarcely be able to
recognize it in its metamorphosed condi-
ton. All that cleansing and whitening
and painting can do to make the rooms
attractive and inviting has been done, and
the appearance of the whole i-terior is
one of rare cheerfulness and comfort.
New furniture is to be procured, and
when the designated time for reopening
shall arrive, the house will challenge con-
parison for tasteful elegance and substan-
tial comfort with any hotel in the State.
Ii is the intention of the Maj,r, also, to
make the cuisine of the hotel first class in
every respect, and to those who know bis
happy faculty of meeting the wants and
catering to the tastes of bis guests, no
other guaranty will be needed of complete
in this department. With ali
these added attractions, which must in
crease in no small degree the popularity
Of the house, we are assured thst The
former reasonable scale Of prices viii re-
main unchanged.

strengthen the independence of Germany, in
the hope that the German people will reap in
a lasting peaca within our boundaries the fruits
