MIDNIGHT PRowLERs.-About twelve
O'Clock this morning, Mr.. g. v. Roll
Inns. who lives above the store of Mr..
B. w. Marshall, on Grove street, hearing
q noise on the street and in the rear of
the building that excited his suspicion,
commenced an investigation into their
origin. He discovered three men, one Of
whom seemed to come foom shed in the
rear of the building, in which was ped
dler's cart Of Spencer s. Sawyer, to the
street and then return, as If he was watch.
ing to guard against interruption. At
the same time the other men were max
ing noise as of pounding, or breaking
open Of box, and occasionally light
would fash up similar to that made by
lighting match. The movements of the
man, the pounding and the appearance
and disappearance of the light convinced
him that something was wrong, and COM
ing out on to the street, he met Chief OF
the Police, George W. Crawford, and hav-
ing informed him of the circumstances,
Mr.. Crawford and an assistant, together
with Mr.. Rollins, repaired to the shed,
where they found three men who had
succeeded in breaking open one of the
candy carts of Messrs. Sawyer & Spencer,
probably intending to steal the contents.
These three midnight providers were i'm
mediately taken into custody and lodged
in the County Jail, and will probably be
examined this morning.
This is good argument to be used by
our business men having stores and shops,
who advocate the dismissal of Policeman
Crawford, and for dispensing with the
Office. Oh no! We do not need Night
Policeman in Rutland.

muscular Christians as Rev. w. W. Kim.
bro of Waynesboro, Tenn. During 1870
he constituted three churches with a
membership of about 200, preached over
ESQ sermons, and was the regular pastor
Of four churches. He has not been known
to spend an idle day when well, in six
years. If be is not preaching he is among
the high hills with his trusty rife. He
has killed not less than 65 deer each year
of the last seven. In 1870 he killed SO,
and sold venison hams and deer skins to
the value of $3.50. Since 1865 he has
paid for a small farm, valued at $1,000 by
selling game.

SENATOR SUMNER AND SECRETARY
FIsH.-The Washington dispatches in the
Boston Advertiser thus speaks of the rela-
tons of Senator Sumner and Secretary
Fish:
The political community here has been
much excited to-day over what purports
to be the true story of the difficulty be.
tween the Secretary of State and Senator
Sumner, published in the Capital, the
new Sunday paper Of Washington. The
story is probably true in its essential fea.
lures, and these are its chief points: In
the first week in June last, Secretary
Fish visited Mr.. Sumner one evening, and,
after urging him with arguments until
after midnight to cease his opposition to
the San Domingo scheme, finally said to
him that if he could not cease opposition
as Senator, he could at least quit the
Senate and no longer stand in the way OF
the Presidents policy. He then offered
him the English mission as an inducement
to leave the Senate.
Senator Sumner, surprised at this pro.
position to purchase his silence, replied
in effect that we had now the best man
we could get at the court of st. James,
and no change was desirable. Secretary
Fish left the house baf1ed and mortified.
Senator Sumner and Mr.. Fish, however,
kept up their usual courteous associa ton.
Mr.. Sumner being willing to overlook the
mistaken zeal of an old friend, until the
Motley letter was given out, when Secre-
tary Fish ceased visiting Sumner until he
had sent Senator Patterson to ascertain
whether he would be we'll received. Mr.
Sumner replied through Patterson that
he would see Mr.. Fish at the State de-
partment, at the Senate chambers, or at
the house of either, freely, fully and at
any time on the public business, but he
added, ''Tell him that 1 feel he has done
me cruel wrong" Afterwards Mr. Fish
visited Mr.. Sumner in company with Sir
John Rose, when the conference prelimiu-
aryto the new negotiations on the Alabama
business were in progress, and Mr.. Sum-
ner exerted himself to make the evening
pass pleasantly and cheerfully. The mar
ration proceeds as follows: "But after
midnight, when Mr.. Fish had departed,
Mr.. Sumner, calmly sitting down in the
quiet of his library, resolved that his self
respect would compel him to discriminate
between Mr.. Fish the secretary and Mr.. Fish
the friend. Therefore, when some time after
wards they met on private occasion at
the Hon. Robert G. Schenck's, and late in
the evening, Secretary Fish addressed
across some ladies frivolous remark
about duck and partridge to Mr.. Sumner,
the latter merely looked at him and made
no reply. Then was formed the plot to
have Mr.. Sumner removed from the chair
mauship of the committee on foreign rela-
tions, of the success of which the country
knows"

ANECDoTE OF JACK MATToCKs-In
the early days of the Vermont bar, black
guarding was quite common, and it was
frequently the case that client won his
case through the sharp hits of his lawyer
rather than by any legal rights. Not far
from 1900, Jack Mattocks began his prac-
tice at Peacham, and at about the same
time VIM. Baxter opened an Office in
Bloomington. Mattocks was great wag,
one of the keenest young men of his time,
and seldom met his match. But the first
time he met Baxter he was suddenly and
Unexpectedly disarmed. Among the first
cases Baxter brought in the Orleans Coun-
ty Court, it happened that Mattocks was
employed to defend. On trial, when Mat
tocks was about closing his argument, he
turned, as usual, upon his opposing law
yer, and, designing to annihilate his in
fuenoe with the jury, began to ridicule
him. Said he, CONTEMPORARY, "This
Baxter Who is he? He is a little
dried-up fellow, who brought his first
case in this court but short time since.
I was employed to defend, and, when he
heard of it he came clear down to Peach
am to see me about it, told me it was his
first case, and if he could manage to win
his reputation would be established. He
even attempted to bride me by offering
me guinea if I would neg eot the inter-
est of my client, and let him win the case.
Then looking round at Baxter, he said ia
military, "You rember it, don't you Bax-
ter ?" After cycling him moment, Bax-
ter deliberately and contemptuously said,
81 remember id well, you took the
puinea 7" This was sumner. Court,
bar and jury roared with laughter, at the
expense of Mattocks, who went home,
having lost his case and suffered a morti-
flying defeat at his own game of black
guarding.-Lynd0n Union.

seat was upon the extreme left, in an un-

COOP TEMPLARs DRAMA.--It is with
pleasure that we announce that the Rut-

through their Dramatic Club bring be-
fore the public at the Rutland Opera
House, next Monday evening, the excel
lent drama, written by DR.. Charles Wood
house, entitled "The Last Chapter" foun-
ded upon Vermont incident, the trial of
the Bournes for the murder of Colvin at
Manchester many years ago. The drama
was first produced last week before the
Good Templars Lodge and gave great
to all who witnessed it. The
production is one of real merit and highly
creditable to its author. The drama being
from the authorship of one of our we'll
known citizens, founded upon an inter-
esting scrap of Vermont history and with
local actors and the scenes in their
elaboration, conveying forcible moral
which cannot fail to draw
large audience to the Opera House on
Monday evening. It will be followed by
4 temperance drama. The occasion will
be one of home interest and should re-
,eive as it deserves the liberal patronage
