ENCOURAGE Your OwN.-If you wish
to make any purchases, don't go away
from home to do it. Encourage home
industry and enterprise, and give your
trade to home merchants and mechanics
especially to those who advertise free
ly. That is the way to build up lively
business in your own vicinity, and bene-
fit yourself as well as others. Every
dollar spent at home is of advantage to
the place in general, and every dollar
spent abroad for articles which could
be bought on as favorable terms at home
is like taking so much capital out of the
business interests of the p ace. There
are some that we know of who buy all
that they possibly can at home, and such
are doing good work toward assisting
their own townspeople with whom they
have a common interest.

FIRE ExTINGUIsHER AT CHESTER
We hear that an experiment with a fire
extinguisher at Chester occurred recent
ly, with very perfect success. They used
tar and kerosene oil barrels in their
building, which gave great impetus 10
the fire and which they allowed to pro-
gress to very late stage, and applying
the gas it was quelled at once. The
building and barrels were again fired, the
gas applied and the success of the extin-
guisher was greater than on the first
trial.

Barnes, Esq. prominent business sman
and marble dealer of West Rutland, was
so severely injured at one OF his quarries
last Friday, thathe died Sunday evening.
While engaged in experimenting his
works, a block of marble weighing about
one hundred pounds, which had been ly-
ing in pile at the top of the quarry,
become undermined by the rain and
fell a distance of over sixty feet, striking
Mr. Barnes on the head and crushing
the skull so terribly that the brain was
exposed. Incredible as it may appear,
Mr. Barnes retained his consciousness
under the frightful injury for some time.

S. r. NILES ADVERTISING AGENCY
The long, well and favorably known adj
vertising agency Of S. r. Niles, Esq, of
Court Square, Boston, has been removed
to No. 6 fremont street. The change
we believe was made necessary by the re-
moval of " Scolay's Building" in which
the agency was so long situated as to
make it part of the building itself, aud
The occasion affords good opportunity
to say good word for one who fully de-
serves it. During our entire experience
as publisher-some fifteen years-Mr.
Niles has been advertising agent for this
paper, and his transactions in every in
stance have been entirely satisfactory.
He is master of the art, has built up
large business and fully enjoys the con-
fidence of the newspaper pre- and the
public. We hope it has been profitable
to him and that it will be long continued.

country knows these men and knows Just what
value to attach 10 their arrsigninent of the
Republican administration and of General
GRANT. But Mr.. SUMNER is quite another
man, and has quite another history, and holds
an entirely different place in the confidence
and affection of the American people When
he unites with them to assail the present ad
ministrstion he places himself in the worst
political company known to the country, and
his cause must be unquestionably good, or he
must stand condemned with the men whose
company he has strangely sought. and whose
plaudits seem now most welcome TO his ear and
heart One would think that the fact that
these men praise him would lead him to sus
pect the soundness of his present views and
the wisdom of his present course. We repeat
the hope that the report of the Commission of
Inquiry, partly if not wholly composed of his
personal friends, will convince him and set
him all right in action and position, as he is in
heart and integrity of purpose.

Those credulous people at the North who
fondy hoped that with the overthrow of the
rebellion and the triumph Of emancipation the
barbarism of slavery would begin gradually to
give place to civilization, have already discov
cred their great mistake So far from the more
than five years of peace and freedom having had
humanzng influence upon the old slave hold
ing population, it has deepened and intensified
the barbarsm which had so Icing hung like a
black cloud over the slave holding States The
loss OF slavery has deepened their hatred for
every kind of progress The efforts of the
Government and selfsacritciug Northern men
and woman to disseminate the blessings of an
education among them has met with the most
bitter opposition. School-houses are burnt.
teachers mobbed and murdered, schools broken
up, and every means used to improve the con
dition OF the poorer classes, whether white or
black, has only seemed to arouse the wrath of
the seli-styled ruling classes, and To furnish new
proof that the barbarism of slavery still exists
at the South in all its defornity Every i'm
provenent designed to better the condition of
the people, and develope the revenue of the com
munity, is looked upon and treated as Yankee
innovation not to be tolerated for moment.
But in no way do the old ex shareholders of
the South exhibit the extent and depth of the
barbarsm which still holds them in its grasp.
and influences all their action, as 10 their evil
and wicked opposition to Northern emigration.
Even their wholesale murders CT loyal men is
not SO madly stupid as their efforts to prevent
Northern men from going among them with
their capital and enterprise, and their criminal
outrages towards those who trusting to their
good faith and common sense, had removed
South at the close of the war They have
motive for these murders, in their political in
fuence. There is undoubtedly feeling of
hatred to Northern men, mixed up with the
other motives, which expel by threats mob, or
murder, Northern men who have removed to
the South. But it is mainly the brutalizing,
and debasing effect upon their
natures of the barbarism of slavery. 1t has
not only deadened them to every feeling of
decency, and humanity, and progress but it has
blinded them to their own interests. In ex
polling Northern emigrants from among thesn,
and lettering all others from remo..ng South,
they defeat policy tat would enrich them
and improve .ne condition of the whole South
:, .tnout any effort on their part Such down
right brutal stupidity was never before exhibit
ed by any people since the world was created,
unless by the Egyptians towards the people of
Israel, the Jews by Spain during the reign of
Ferdinand and Isabella, or the Jesuits towards
