The Middlebury register. [volume] (Middlebury, Vt.) 1850-1882, 1871-06-27

The following personal item appear
ed in the 81. AbanS Messenger, and it
being so true, we could not refrain from
copying it. There are very few people
who realize the amount of labor and
anxiety that has to be bestowed upon an
acceptable weekly newspaper, but when
we consider that upon Daily the news
books Of the vast world have to be posted
up every day, and balanced the labor is
amazing and tests the endurance of the
strongest man, both in his mental and
physical nature.
A WoRKER.-It is pretty generally I'M
derstood that if there is any man who has
to work more hours than any man ought
to, it is the editor of daily paper but
there is one such editor in this State who
takes upon himself almost double the
labor usually falling to his class, and still
he lives. We refer to Henry Clark of
Rutland, who, if he dosen't break down
soon, may travel all over the Cannibal
Islands with perfect safety, as he will
everywhere be known to be "tougher than
a billed OWL" lie is Secretary of the
Vermont Senate, Secretary of the Grand
Masonic Lodge, Secretary of the State
Agricultural Society, and Secretary of half
a dozen smaller bodies, in every one of
which he performs an immense amount of
labor and performs it well As Secretary
of the Grand Lodge he has during the
last year, besides keeping the records,
written thrty-fve hundred letters and
received more than five thousand. Just
think of it /! and this is only small part
of his work. Look in upon him during
the session Of the Legislature and you
would think he had work enough on hand
for an entire year. See him at the State
fair and it will make your bones ache as
the unsystenatic but exacting "roll up
and tumble up to pour business by the
cart load upon his table Enter his sane
tum and you will be reminded of miller's
chopper" and will only wonder as you
read the Herald the next morning to see
that the grists are not a little "mixed."
He is the secretariest man alive We
move that he be chosen grand secretary
Of the Vorhingmcn's Union.
The Galary enters upon its twelfth
volume with the July number, and cele-
brates the event by appearing in a new
and clear type, which greatly adds to its
appearance. The publishers are Justly
proud of the success the magazine has had
during the last year. Its circulation, they
say, has increased ten thousand. The
Galarq has good reason TO be proud of
the literary position to which it has at
tanned, and the strong hold it has on the
respect and interest of the reading pub
lie.
