The following items IRE from the
LOnl Syiite Courier-JournRl.

n
Louisville Courier-Journal:
Some of the Republican uewspapers
point with pride to the statement that
Fred Grant, the President: boy, pass
ed creditahly an examination al West
Peint- ltwould have beer a sad thing
for the conductors Of thse IL stitution if
Fred. hadn't passed"
Mr.. Greeley denies thst he ever de-
hounced the so-called Union League as
"a congregation of block he ads" Mr..
Greeley's reputation for honesty is
always getting him accused of uttering
truths that he never dreamed Of.
Mrs. Woodhull's cosmapalitical par
ty propose to make Kate Stanton Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court. Kate
calls Henry Ward BeFcher .'OId Cock
alsrum, with dignity an 4 grace that
eminently Fl her for the er,nine.
General Grant spends his Summers
very pleasantly atLong Branch. We
are glad to know that the people will
next year make such arran gements as
viii enable him to spend has winters
there also.
4. Chicago paper has leader headed
IN aking Provision for Robbery"
Strange to say, the article makes no
suggestions as tothe best way to bring
about another Republican admihistra-
tior.
Mrs. Victoria Woodruff will never be
elected President of the United States,
/ but if she keeps on in the way she has
set out she is likely to get some repu-
tati3n as public woman.

Colored candies purchased from
various dealers have recently been ex
amined by the Assistant Chemists 10
the New York Health Department, with
a view 80 the detection of poisonous
deliberations. Red cololing matters
were found to be either carmine or an
lire red, both harmless. Blues were
ultramafine and Prussial blue, both
harmless. Greens were found to be
harmless, although the public is recon-
mended to beware of highly colored
green candies; but one halfthe yellows
examined were found colored with poi
sons, generally 'chromste 81 Head or
gamborge. Among the fiavoing ingre-
dents il was found that OIL of pepper
mgntis often adulterated with oil of tur-
pentine. and that the other favors are
generally artificial ethefs. many nf
which are considered injurious.

The town histories for Windham County
are about ready for the press. They will
prove exceedingly interesting TO all the ma
tive inhabitants of the county, as well as to
all those who have moved from ii TO the
west. 1t IL understood that the price for
the history of all the towns Of the county
will be so cents. But the editress of the
work, Miss IIemmenway, of Burlington,
cannot afford to publish IL without the as
surance of sale sufficient to meet the ex-
penses. All her contributors have done
their part without any remuneration, being
moved wholly by the interest and utility Of
the work to the community. Their gener-
osity in this respect is highly commenda-
BILE, and worthy of their character as well
as of that of the early settlers whose doings
they have sought 10 preserve aud transmit
to future times. When the histories of all
the towns Of the State shall have been COM
pleted, as they promise soon to be under
the untiring energy and enthusiastic devo-
ton of the editress, no State will have a
more thorough record of its carly times
than Vermont.
Other States will have but few contrib
utors to their early history, while Vermont
will have some $50 writers, many of whom
If not all, have touched hands with the first
born of the first settlers, and are, to some
extent familiar with the events which they
describe.
The work has been well done; but the
editress must still rely upon generous aid
from the inhabitants of the towns, or she
cannot publish the part pertaining to Wind
ham County. The question is, how is she
to learn the number of copies that will be
called for? Many will want several copies
for friends in the west, who retain a more
lively interest in their native town affairs
than we the residents do ourselvcs.
1t has been suggested that if every one
who is interested in having his town hsto-
ry preserved would aid in asccrtaining the
number of copies wanted, the work would
soon be put to press all the towns except
Marlboro and Slratton being now completed.
!: the postmasters of the several towns
would take the names of those who want
copies and forward them to Miss Abby
Maria llcmcnway, Burlington, Vermont,
| the necessary arrangements for publication
could soon he made. We would suggest
this course to the postmaSters OF the county.
ana request them to give the subject lib
| eral and generous consideration.
The price of the work is so small that the
sale of it by the ordinary course of trade
would evidently offer but little IN the way
of pecuniary speculation.

DiDN'r Go Ur.-It appears that Miller
ism is not yet dead in spirit, although most
believers of the olden time have become
disbelievers nowadays, after long and wea-
~ waiting for the dies ire which never
comes 10 the world all at once. Mrs. Cal
lender, of Delaware, and her husband were
fully persuaded on Wednesday of last
week the heavens were to resound with
the trump Of Gabriel, and they were TO be
caught up into the air together with the
rest of mankind, ahead of whom they how
ever determined to get by being fully pre-
pared. There was little originality in their
mode Of preparation rs people used to do
when Millerism was epidemic, they pre-
pared white robes for themselves, the same
being their night clothes slightly altered.
Early in the evening they arrayed them
selves in these dresses and sat quietly
within doors until night came on, when.
thinking that it would be easier to ascend
from the roof of their woodShed than up
through the chimney of their house, they
went thither, going up by means of lad
der.
l.
lender that ii would be well to sew up their
garments at the bottom in case of adverse
winds, and he returned to the house for
needle and thread. Meantime his wife sat
shvering on the roof and gazing at the stars
as they rolled peacefully overhead. She
assisted her husband to mount the roof,
and then scwed the dresses rs he directed.
There they sat for while shivering in the
cold and holding sweet converse. BY
some accident Mrs. Calender slipped from
her perch, and being unable To achieve vol
untary motions by reason OF her sewcl
dress, slid for minute and then rolled
tranquility oil the shed, falling about five
feet to the ground. She screamed Justify
for help. but Is she had fastened her hus-
band In Suclra way that lac could not come
to her assistance for some little time. and
when he had managed to free himself from
the intolcrablc b ndS, he made his way
down the ladder and found his wife pretty
badly hurt; so badly, indeed, that he hal
to ride for the doctor, who found the lady's
ankle diSlocatcd. The good people will
probably stay in the house when next they
wish to ascend, prclcringtu goalort through
the crooked ilue Of the chimney rather
than roll to the ground and 90 TO heaven
