Rutland.

Rutland.
In all large places, sin will flourish.
How could Rutland, while it enjoys all
the life Of London, Paris, New York
and Chicago,-a place having six
whole wards, over one hundred town
agencies, vast marble interests, exten
sive railroad business, a chief Of police,
gas works, a county court house, strik-
ing contrasts Of affluence and squalor,
expect TO go the complete orthodox
figure? 1t cannot be done; history
shows no precedent Society in all
great business centres, must swallow Il
little wormwood, now and then, with
its dish Of sacharine morality. There
was a time III Rutland when villains
amused themselves quite frequently
with the midnight torch; when fine
residences and business blocks were
swept away for the amusement or to
satisfy the revenge of set of rascals
such as never before or since infested
any other community of 10000 or
more souls; justice at last overlook
these torch bearers, and confagrations
come now only through carelessness,
but the sweet efeminate little burglar
has appeared here and is making very
good wages. Entrance to the bed,
rooms of any of our good families is
easily effected, without the using Of
half the late patented tools either. The
owner Of pair Of pantaloons will
find them either down cellar or in the
kitchen, after quiet call from one or
more of these noiseless devils. In w.
Rutland, two or three nights since,
pretty thorough inventories were taken
in no less than four houses, and every
thing valuable, which was portable,
taken away. The Herald gave col
umn of detail, but the next night
Grove street was canvassed by the
same party-without doubt--and two
entrances into private dwellings were
made, though have not learned the
extent of loss. Gentle sleeper, you
must understand that you are not liv-
ing in a rural district, that honest yeo-
many don't constitute the entire com.
munity, and above all, that Rutland,
with its so OF GO streets. has but one
patrolman to "Tell us of the Night"

THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM.

WILLIAM MALLoNEE, Esq, Of Taylor
county, addresses to the editor Of the
Grafton Sentinel, a wcll-written letter
concerning some OF the reasons fOl
holding a Constitutional Convention
In our opinion he hits the nail squarely
on the head in the following remark:
concerning the judicial system. Thi:
is perhaps the most important Of the
many very excellent reasons why the
Convention should be held
al desire TO suggest one item for dis.
cussiOn with which ! am somewhat
familiar, which il carried out will save
much precious time, to laboring people
especially, and large sums Of money to
all litigants.
refer to n thorough remodrlling Of
the entire judicial system of the State.
AS the laws are at present attempted to
he administered they are no terror to
evil doors. The expense, delay, and
uncertainty connected with the prosecu-
ton of suits in the circuit courts, and
the length of time intervening between
the terms, deter industrious business
men from seeking justice through the
courts, .and encourage the vicious and
unruly to disregard the law, and to look
upon its tardv administration with con
tempt.
What we need instead are courts so
organized that swift retribution to all
criminals and the speedy and final set.
Element Of all petty ltigations may be
had without being annoyed by those
volumes Of fee bills, Of cases continued,
which flow from the clerk office year
after year, through q series of ten or
twelve years.
| shall feel it my duty to vote for
Convention if no other item than this
one item of business demanded atten-
ton. Let us have a Convention and
so amend the Constitution that all mis-
demeanors and assault and battery
cases shall be brought before magis-
trate courts, with juries ifthe parties
interested demand them, with the priv
lege OF appeals TO monthly courts in
each county, composed of one or three
judges, whose decision in all cases shall
be hnal. If this suggestion, or one an.
proxlmating it, shall be adopted most if
not all suits will he disposed OF in the
neighborhood in which thew arise
where the witnesses are at hand, and
much time and money in the shape of
costs will be more proftably employed
in attending the Circuit Courts, where
the fondest hopes of anxious Nticaats
are so frequently blastedI temporarily, by
the postponement Of their cases to
another term, in consequence Of some
frivolous technicality.

fed than | am, the arrangement of the

State Aid TO Works Of Internal Inn
prOvcmcnt.
WESToN Inlv % 1871 =

WESTON, July 70, 1871. -
Editors of the Register:
addressed a letter to J. w. Wof.
linden, editor OF the Weston Democrat,
on the Sth of June ultimo, urging the
calling of a Constitutional Convention
for certain reasons specified therein.
The proposition to lend the State
credit to aid in building good roads
throughout the Commonwealth Las met
with unjust and unmanly criticism by
the Republican orators and press Of
the State. An effort is being made by
. them to prejudice the public mind
against the calling of Convention by
magnifying the expenditures of large
sums OF the peoples money for the
construction of railroads through the
lands Of large land owners who aided
tie late rebellion. 1t was never con-
tcmplated by any friends Of the internal
improvement plank, to give unlimited
power to the Legislature to appropriate
money to works of internal improve.
ment, but to limit it to meritoriouS
schemes. And if so much danger
is to be apprehended from these
! railroad monopolies" as is mani
tested by the opponents Of Con-
venton, tie friends and advocates OF
State aid to internal improvements
would have no objection to confiring
the Constitutional power to lend the
State credit to turnpikeS and Macsdam-
ized roads Alone
There are many counties in the State
off the lines of the railroads, undevelop.
ed, that need State aid to open them up
and give their people outlets to the
markets. An enlightened State policy
which will lift from the interior and
southern border counties the political
nightmare and paralysis which oppres
sion and a devastating civil war have
laid upon them, is not only necessary
for their material prosperity and
growth, but is demanded by the
highest considerations of the public
interests.
The great hanimity OF the people in
these counties for a Convention, will
insure its call, and it is to be hoped
that the members, when in sovereign
assembly, will not be governed or
controlled by any local or selfish
interest, but as becomes patriots
aud statesmen, look to the welfare OF
whole people, and incorporate such
the provisions in the Constitution as will
promote the best interests Of our infant
| Commonwealth.
Most respectfully.
WIN L. ARNOLD.
