West Rutland.

This very important part of the town of
Rutlsnd has not been ftly represented in
the columns of THE HERALD lately.
There is no lack of important events,
however, to record. Your correspondents
have been sharpening their wits for the
holidays. The gala time of the year ap-
proachss, and all are upon the qui Uivs for
enjoyment. Our merchants aud traders
generally have concentrated their energies
upon meeting their customers wants and
extra desires at this time, and attractiyely
display their wares.
This is the amusing history of spu-
rious double Z. One of our mechanics re.
ceived it in some transaction, forgetting
to a certainty of whom, and after una
vailing attempts to discover, went to
Rutland and exchanged it for suit of
clothes. He felt elated at his success,
naturally, until his Rutland victim, hiring
livery team, returned in state with the
double K, recovering in full the value of
his clothing in genuine lucre and enough
TO pay for the expense beside. Terribly
agitated at the result of his Rutland spec
ulation, the victim of the nnlucky coun-
terfeit brought action against person
who bad paid him money. The case was
tried before one of our justices, who made
the st4tote against the very act of passing
counterfeit money appear SO frightfuI that
the plaintiff withdrew bis suit and trem-
blingly ordered the spurious note de-
stroyed.
The sidewalk association gave An oy-
ster supper at the residence of Mr.. P. W.
Perry on Wednesday evening.
"A school has been opened in the viii
lape for the benefit of Swedish children,
under the control of Miss o. Felt,-a
praiseworthy benefoence, We hear, of Mr..
J. N. Baxter and others.
"A new term of the select school in
Central Hall opened on Monday.
We congratulate the readers of THE
HERALD upon the promised correspond
ence from the several important towns
along the route of the Addison and Port
Henry Railroad These will contain
news from home" TO many, and will
therefore be thoroughly appreciated. The
action of the proprietors in this matter is
highly com mendable.
Mr.. E. W. Liddell will retire from
the drug business here the first of the
month, and remove with his family to
Hydeville. where he owns part proprie-
torship in new manufacturing business.
- Lectures, popular entertainments,
etc. which in past seasons somewhat re-
lieved the monotony of every day life
among US. have entirely ceased to be.
Why il it ? It is not a lack of refined
and oultared tastes las liberal patronage
of all meritorious performances in Rut-
land testify that cau1os this dire need.
Ii we may not aspjre TO regular course
with Cough, Dickinson. etc. We think it
would pay TO invite the excellent local
talent of our town and county to instruct
us occasionally on subj ects we do not I'M
derstand INCOG.

Message on Civil Service
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.
To the Senate and House Of Represent
dtiues -
In accordance with the act of Congress,
approved March 23d, 1871, convened a
commission of eminent gentlemen TO de-
wise rules and regulations for the purpose
of reforming the civil service.
Their labors are now completed and
transmit herewith the report, together
with the rules which are recommended
for my action. These rules have been
adopted and will go into effect on the
first day of January, 1872.
Under the law referred to, as I inter-
pref it, the authority is already invested
in the executive to enforce these regula-
tions, with full power to abridge, alter or
amend at his option, when changes may
be deemed advisable. These views to-
gether with the report of the commission
era, are submitted for your careful consid-
Grafton as to whether further legislation
may he necessary in order to carry out
an effective and beneficial civil service
reform. If left to me without further
Congressional action, the rules prescribed
by the commission, under the reservation
already mentioned, will be faithfully ex.
eouted, but they are not binding without
further legislation, on my successor.
Being desirious of bringing this cub
ieot to the attention of Congress before
the approaching recess, l have not time
to sufficiently examine the accompanying
report to enable me to suggest definite
Legislative action to insurs the support
which may be necessary, in order to give
a thorough trial TO policy long needed.
ak for all the strength which Congress
can give me to enable me to carry ont the
reforms in the civil service, recommended
by the commissioners and adopted to take
effect, as before stated, on January first,
1879.
The law which provides for the conven-
ing of commission to device rules and
regulations for reforming the civil service,
huthDEIZ1Hs biiibh| AbO POA ~ AN4
iz4tion of primary board, under whose
general directions all examinations of APP
plioapts for public office shall be conduct
ed. There is no appropriation to contin-
ne such board beyond the termination
of TIA present labors. 1 therefore RECON-
mend that proper appropriation be made
to continue the services of the present
board for another year. and in view OF
the fact that three mem bers of the board
bold petitions In the service, which pre-
cludes them receiving compensation un-
der the existing laws that they be au-
thorizad 3 receive a fair compensation
for extra services rendered by them in the
performance of their duty.

The Parade OF the InternatiOn-
ais

NEW YORK, Dec. II.
The parade of the Internstiouals today
proved a success. The occasion is re-
garded not only az q mark of sympathy
for the cause in which Rossel and his
comrades suffered, bnt. also, as triumph
over the police commissioners. At noon
the gathering commenced 10 the neigh.
berhood of Cooper Institute, and soon the
thoroughfsres on either side OF it in Sd
and 4rh avenues became nearly blocked
up-there being, besides the intending
grocessionists, immense crowds of holiday
street gszers, who, from time to time,
cheered every one in general, and the fe-
male communists, Woodruff and Clcfin.
in particular. About quarter past two
o'clock there was general stir among the
masses, end soon the solemn notes of q
funeral dirge were heard from the band
of Hawkins z 4uaves, which formed the
bead of the column. Immediately after
CAME platoon of the Scidmore guards

falque was substantially yet tastefGlly
made, and was draped in black with the
inscription on the sides, in white letters,
"Te the Martyers of the Universal Re-
public" 1t was also decorated with red
flags and stresmers, mingled with mourn
er's Grape. The processionists, generally,
wore red rosettes and scsrfs with black
Grape, and the banners and flags were
nearly all of the same color. The banner
captured last Sunday, by the police, was
most noticeable; it bore the inscription,

the axe of the executioners falls on the
necks Of its martyrs y on another banner
was, "The world Is our country; to do
