Versailles or recognized government. The
details of this terrible and unholy conflict
are almost to horrifying to read. Over a
third of the beautiful city is in ruins,
which includes the Tuleries, and most of
the public buildings. The house of U. S.
Minister Washburn was attacked and
nearly destroyed, but the Commune say
unauthorized by them. The city is dyed
in blood and the fires are still raging.
The Archbishop of Paris, and go priests

The foregoing is the substsAce of the

D. A. GILBERT'S STORE.

COMPOSED BY ONE OF THE VILLAGERS WIZ
HAS TRADED THERE.
Yet Gilbert lives, and people say,
He is the man to suit the day,
For fifteen years through veal and i'll,
He's had his store in Morrisville!
Aud in it have been ladies' fair,
And tow'ring men have gathered there,
Because they know, what many know,
That Gilbert's sold good goods and low !
And what he's done he still can do,
Please all the friends you have, and you
1t on his shelves you chance to gaze,
You'll herald to your friends his praise,
For all a country store requires
He shows to ladies', sons. and sires,
And cen the child will oft tell DER
What can be bought at Gilbert's store!
Young lady if a dress you seek
10 wear for six days iu the week,
Or finer one you would survey
10 wear upon the Sabbath day,
by skillful hands it must be made,
Go for the cloth with Gilbert trade,
The ladies tell, score after score,
That Gilbert keeps a dry goods store.
For dry goods, ladies, to him 60,
Ills cotton see, and calico,
His silks, his muslins, and his lace,
Can't be surpassed in any place,
He'll other dry goods show beside
10 suit the servant, queen or bride.
So let his store by you be sought,
Whether you buy some goods or not.
Now gentlemen some words with you,
d. A. has hats, caps, not a few,
Has boots and shoes, will neatly fuit,
Each lady, man, and "raw recruit"
And oh remember, he will trade
With you for warm clothes ready-made,
Or thinner clothes for summer wear,
He'll suit you well, and treat you fair.
OF crockery, his stock is grand,
He'd have the ladies understand,
And in his store for little "pelf,"
You'll get a large amount Of delft
For he has got -four, salt, glass and nails,
And fish that meets with ready sales,
And paints and oils, hardware, and glass,
His is the store TO please the mass.
oh think of ID. A. Gilbert's door
Through which you enter to his store,
Where Yankee Notions not a few
He's ready yet to sell to you,
The gen'rous farmers near will tell
lie always strives to please them we'll,
And when he strives he does succeed
He's just the man the farmers need.
We hope a railroad soon to know, :.
And see cars through our village 60,
Let enterprisirg mortals prove
That Morrlsville shall onward move,
And let its sous and daughters gay,
for good bargains to d. A.,
lie has most anything you want,
And well suits Morrisville, Vermont.

Along The LamoiIle.

Somewhere up this river is a regior
known as pheasant Valley" As we wcr,
vending our way from Fairfax towards
the source of the %''spunky stream" We
concluded that it required a very nice eye
to distinguish the particular portion TO be
designated as especially pleasant. Before
one arrives at Cambridge Boro, he cannot
help e%xclaiming ''beautigul I" as he marks
the sweep of the tranquil river, the spread
ing interval, the mountains and the hills.
All the way to Cambridge proper, -
known as Jacksonville, and so named by
a royal old Democrat years ago, to honor
Jefferson, and the delightful locality
and thence on to johnson, where at least
one of our St. Adams boys, DR.. George
Woodward agrees with us that pleasant,
with a strong superlative is altogether APP
plicabIe; and on, past the residence of the
Hon. MIR. Holmes, Assembly man from
that town; past the old Allen farm, now
owned by Mr.. Mcfarland; past farm after
farm with their heads reclining on the cv-
orgreen hill-tops and covering, lower down
hundreds of level acres, with their broad
proportions. and on to Hyde Park, the
shire town of Lamoille County; all along,
one cannot help but feel that pleasant is
a very tame epithet to apply to the con-
stantly shifting panorama of beauty there
enjoyable.
We do not wonder, therefore, to find
that the hamlet known as Pleasant Valley
is In an offshoot from the larger valley of
the Lamoille, and leaves all the more ex-
presslve adjectivcs to be appropriated by
the fertile, and with Mansfield Mountain
looking down upon us, we may add, the
sublime, and with towering crags and prec-
lplces and waterfalls and cataracts of M
mean proportions overlooked by the pri-
mcval forest, we will add the magnificent
and beautiful valley of the Lamoille. Eden
that is to say paradise itself, lies further
up, which we did not see, because perhaps
were satisfied with Morrisville, where
Gov. Hendee resides and Messrs. Powers
y Glecd, names familiar in Law and Pol
to be more widely known in due
Morrisville is as large as any vii
Iago on the river we should Judge and with
a larger opportunity to expand without
providing on the hills. We saw the grad
ed line of the Lamoille Valley Railroad
N its most nearly completed approach to
convenient depot grounds here. We learn
