AS to the old dead issue of secession, as
have intimated before, l believe we had the
right to secede; but the result proved that
it was a bad policy; and that which casts q
reflection upon it, is, that some of those
who met to decide whether or not we should
secede, were utterly incapscitated for so
high trust. But not all, for some of our
most talented men were there-men of in
tellect-the strong pillars of the state.
Such men do not cenSure. They were simD-
ly mistaken as to the best course to be pur.
sued in order TO redress our many wrongs
but there were those who went there in
and others were declaring, that the hap
piest night they ever spent was that after
the day on which Mississippi seeded, who
actually could not read the newspapers of
the day. There is a heavy responsibility
hanging above the heads of such men. Ali
II when they were deciding upon one of the
most solemn questions that was ever brought
before body of men, without proper con-
ception OF its importance. the venerable
shade of Andrew Jackson or George WASH
ington had risen up before them, they
would have quailed like the Witch Of
Endor, when she called for Samuel to arise
from the grave, and the ghost of that wise
man strOd before her.
But these exciting times too, have passed
like terrible storm at sea, which but an
hour ago dashed high the fOaming pillows
but has slowly died away, and now nothing
but the shattered relics of the frail bark re-.
main to tell that the sea was not ALWAYS
calm. And would not have alluded te
them but me thinks still hear the pleading
words of my own dear father warning the
representatives from my county to beware
of the false steps they were about to take
but who acted so differently when time
came for action, then and eper afterwards
from what some of the extremists have
been inclined to accuse the Old Line Wings.
For he was Wing and a Ulsi0n man. and
am proud to acknowledge he had SO mnck
good sense. But when the blighting storms
Of adversely despoiled this fair land Of ours
OF its Injuries, challenge the bitterest en-
envy OF Nhigism or UniOnism to say that
ne shOuldered his burthen more nobly
Fellow citizens, there Is too much hot
Indebtedness existing in this country.
There are always two extremes and, some
men are too much given to disregard the
opinions of others.

point. The Wings, If / understand them.

warning, for MS TO even entertain q thought

July, tin this town. is celebrated in II
manner worthy the descendants Of rcvolu-
tonary heroes, aud foes Of British ty-
ranny.
The old Jail, also erected by Sir Will
iam johnson in the year l772, is equally
as old, as the Court House but needful
repairs. at the proper time, have kept it
in good state representation, and it now
looks as if it might stand the storms of
another century at least. Unlike most
buildings designed for the same purpose,
there is nothing about this one, save the
grated windows, to indicate it as place
Tor the incarceration of law defying hui
man beings. 1t is, indeed, all that a
Howard, or Wilberiorcc could, reasona-,
bly,, wish, the location being very healthy
the building comfortable, and the grounds
in front overgrown with flowers and shrub
berry, enclosed with neat paling fence
so low that dorg could jump over. At
tractive as the place is, however, there is
at present but one inmate and he would
very willingly leave without "noticc to
quit" This solitary occupant plays the
violin to cheer his loneliness, after the
abors of the day are over, and apparent
ly enjoys himself quite as much as those
outside. 1t must not be inferred from
the almost tenantless condition of the
Johnstown Jail, that the people of Full
ton County are nearly all law-abiding
citizens, and that crime is almost unknown,
for the following truthful story will show
different state Of facts In June last,
a considerable sum of money was stolen
from the bank in the neighboring town
of Gloversvilc. Diligent search was
made for the thief, but without success
A reward of $3.50, was finally offered by
the county authorities, and as the result
of this offer, gentleman appeared here
representing himself as a detective from
New York City, who in concert with two
other detectives, had succeeded in dis
covering and arresting the Gloversvillt
thieves in Jerry City bat in making tho
arrest one of the detectives had been very
severely wounded, and Governor Ran
dolph, Of New Jersey insisted on holding
the prisoners to await the results Of in
juries to the wounded detective. Thi
plausible story was supported by all Tho
requisite afidavits bogus of coursc), anc
the promised reward was paid over. TIL,
next day revealed the pleasing intelligence
thatthe self-stycd detectives was as mucl
bogus as his aflidavits, and thus "endetl
the chapter" The thieves, money, dc
tective and reward, all having gone t.
"where the woodbine twineth.'

ScandalOus.

Theodore Tilton has written a life of
Victoria c. Woodruff which for BIAS
phemy indecency and lunacy combined,
has probably never been equalled. She
is gravely declared to be possessed by
the spirit of Demosthenes, who in bodily
form appears to her, sits by her side and
dictates those fearful and wonderful
pronunciamentos which flow from her un-
conscious lips and are taken down by one
of her husbands and given to the world
in print. She is declared to have watch
ed increasingly for ten nights without rest
or food over sick woman till the latter
was restored to health she herself grow
ing all the time fair and ETHEREAL and her
flesh wearing a look Of transparency, thus
leading her to believe that at last in this
way will the mortal body be refined away
and the soul only remain. She is declar-
ed to have held to her bosom in seven
hour trance the body of her dead son, till
perspiration broke from his clammy skin
and the child came back to life and heI
veracious biographtr adds that it is "hel
belief that the spirit OF Jesus Christ brood
ed over the lifeless form and rewrought
the miracle of Lazarus for a Borrowing
woman's sake" Her marriage, to hel
second husband and her support under
the same roof of her first are treated al
exhibitions of moral courage, "for which
she has received not so much censure OIL
earth as | think she will receive reward
on heaven" And to crown the absurdity
and wickedness of this dreadful produc
ton, the author says, Twice las | un
shakenly believe) says, has seen visioI
of Jesus Christ-honored thus doubly
over st. Paul, who saw his Master bu
once, and then was overcome by the sight.
Verify since the red-handed atheists o
the first French revolution elevated ant
worshipped harlot in the place of thu
God Of heaven, there has been no parable
to this dedication of Victoria G. Wood
hull by Theodore Tilton. W. Waterman

1t is hardly worth more than an item
to record Chief Justice Chase's avowed
adhesion to the Democratic party. He
is known to have been virtually on that
side ever since the last Presidential cam
paign, when he intrigued for the Demo-
cratic nomination, and when he stood
great deal higher in the confidence and
respect of the country than he does now.
By that exhibition of recreancy he put
himself on level with the lowest class
Of politicians and forfeited the repute of
years and the prestige Of his high position.
When he now says, therefore, that ga
strict adherence to the ancient principles
Of equity and justice which underlie the
foundation of the Government, will secure
the ultimate success of the National
Democratic party, and result in the over
throw Of less honest and more unscrupu-
lous organizations" he simply INDUCES
in that partisan gasconade which means
nothing and which one man can use as
we'll as another, 1t is in pitiable con.
trast with the weighty arguments which
the people were wont to expect from
Salmon p. Chase.

New York, Sept. %. District Attor-
ney Garvin has refused the request Of the
Committee of Seventy that William G,
Barrett be allowed to assist him in be-
half Of that committee in the prosecution
of Mr. and Mrs. Haggerty and Balch be-
fore Justice Bowling this morning.
1t is rumored that Judge Lcdwith has
issued warrant for the arrest of Police
Commissioner Henry Smith on charge Of
instigating the robbery of vouchers as in
situated in Mary Conways affidavit. The
police are unable to find Smith.
The bundle of vouchers taken from the
Court House in pillow case can be
traced to Alderman John Murray's liquor
store, on the corner of Amity and Sulli.
van streets. Some of the burnt papers
found in deserted room of the Court
House, show writing plainly, and the ev.
idence against Haggerty is now considered
complete. The services Of Professor
Doremus have been secured to deciphei
the writing on the partially carbonized
papers. The friends Of Haggerty will at
tempt to prove that he was at Greenwich
Conn, when the robbery was committed
but if Judge Bowling orders his discharge
the opponents of Tammany intend to have
him indicted.
1t is generally believed that Mayor
Hall will be the first of the ring to be ar
rested, as sufficient evidence, already Sc
cured, proves that many of his friends
have been placed upon the monthly pay
roll of the city.

TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 20, 1911.
Muster at Richmond.

The Muster at Richmond last week
was pretty fully attended, and the drilling
was quito satisfactory. There were the
usual drunken Accomplishments such as
fighting, brawling, bloody noses and black
eyes, &c. While we are willing, and even
anxious, that the military should become
q protection and an ornament to our com.
monwealth, we must confess that our
faith is very faint and weak upon the
subject. The truth is, the day, OF brass
epaulets, plumes, and red sashes are
past, and with it the glory of the long-to-
aforementioned "June training day."
when the old musket with muzzle like q
hole in gas pipe, and the old fint-lock
with its tremendous striking power, was
in use. This, and the "cartouch. box"
with its thick, stiff leather covering and
q block of wood inside with various holes
bored in it as receptacles for the amuni-
ton. They have had their day, and are
now lying in the garrets of many houses
in the state, there to remain unless some
rude urchin shall draw them from their
long repose, covered with mildew and
cobwebs, as relics of former generation I!
The exhibition of pomp and display,
with few hundred men in some quiet
town in Vermont, among the green hills,
beside still waters, is so great contrast
with the innumerable army engaged in
the mighty struggle through which we
have lately passed, that the exhibition
seems tame and almost childish. And
further, we question, whether, this ex.
pense to the state is judiciously expended
as an arm of defence. The training of a
body Of men, one or two days in year
will never create any army which will
really be effective.
If the state of Vermont will provide
arms, in sufficient number, and keep them
in effective order, an army can always be
raised from the intelligent and patriotic
citizens of our state, in time to repel any
invasion that may be made upon our state
or nation.
While we should be in favor Of well
drilled, we'll paid, effective, militia under
proper law; we cannot feel well pleased
with the spasmodic exhibitions under the
present system.
While in Richmond VIC called upon
Hon. John L. Mason, trustee of the Vt
Reform School and found him gentle
man we'll fitted for the position he occu
pies. Especially at this time, while
the state is building e beautiful edi
fee for the better accommodation of the
school. He is thorough practical bust
ness man, and seems to be the right mar
in the right place. His idea of what q
school of this character should be is entire
ly correct.

Indian Troubles.
WASHINGTON, Sept. %

AshlN"IoN, Sept. -.
Governor Potts Of Montana writes that
he has organized force of two hundred
volunteers for the protection of the set
tiers Of Gallatin Valley, who now feel no
apprehension Of further Indian raids this
year unless Sitting Bull declares war on
the Northern Pacific railroad surveyors.
Five thousand Santee and Sioux Indians
arc now camped on Milk river near Fort
Browning, and refusing positively to re.
turn to their agency, are being fed with
supplies intended for other tribes. Gov.
Potts recommended that special provision
be made for snbsisting the Indians where
they are, in the hope that it would have
forcible effect upon Sitting Bull and his
followers, who will almost certainly at
tack the Northern Pacific paIties. Gov.
Potts says that the Indians are led and
encouraged by renegade whites, and ad-
vises the exclusion Of white men from the
Indian tribes.
