The RMOsf severe test a Piano
cam receive Is constant use
im - Conservatory.
gsead the Following /:

1t affords me much pleasure to give you,
in these few lines, very sincere testimo-
NAL for the Pinno-Fortcs of your manu-
facturc. We have now used the PATENT
AnIoN PIANOS" in our Conservatorics for
o year, and havo had fair opportunity of
testing their durability during that time
The Pianos have been played upon almost
constantly, from morning till night, and a
Piano must indeed be good one when it
viii bear such constant use without show
ing signs of detection. AS for remaining
in taae, it outrivals any Piano known to
me.
Their peculiar sweetness Of tone in the
treble, las compared 10 other Pianos with
the ordinary metal agraffe arrangement,
is so striking that have had pupils re-
mark, while taking their lessons. that al
though they had at home what they sup
posed to be ono of the best makes of Pianos,
still The treble was very wiry-toned COM
pared with the " ARIoN."
What makes them still moro desirable
is their uniform volume of tone, which
enables the artist to perform composition
in It's true character.
In total, l can conscicntiously endorse
all that is claimed by the ARIoN PIANO
FORTE COMPANY for their superb instru-
mcnts, as consider them superior TO any
other make.
Ccngrntulntingsyou upon The great sue
coss you have obtained in the manufacture
of 60 perfect nm instrument, remain,
Yours, very truly,

Director.

Too TRUE.-We have read much of
late regarding the esteem in which the
democratic party have always held the
negro, and the friends they ever tried to
be to the slave; but we have never read
anything in the way of reply so start
ling and SO true as the remark made by
southern colored man upon the subject
a few days ago: 1--WE don't want any
speeches. Just pull down the shirt Of
any colored man that ever was slave,
and you will find his democratic history
written on his back with whip lash. .
And yet the democrats call upon the col
ored population to vote with them, and
by their sufrages to place themselve;

LETTER FROM MONTPELIER

The beautiful weather which we are
now having seems to demand some ex-
preston of thankfulness After so many
weeks of sultry, rainy and unpleasant
weather, these bright, clear, and lovely
days fill the heart with joy. While
Massachusetts and many other parts of
the country, less cold than Vermont,
have been visited with frosts, none have
come here, and the grass is as green and
the flowers as gay as in June. The wea-
Their being common and stale topic,
your readers may be more anxious to
know whether their representatives are
accomplishing anything in the Legislay
ture
The past week has witnessed consider
able progress in the legislature, and the
disposition appears to be, to forward
business as fast as possible. Railroad
bills have been introduced for charters
to Newport and Troy from Montpelier
both by the way of Wolcott and Hard
wick. 1t is thought that Montpelier IA
vors the Wolcott route. Surveys are
now being made through East Montpe-
lier, Calais, and Woodbury., to So. Hard
wick and thence to Craftsbury and to
Newport Montpelier favors the build
ing of narrow gauge railway, on ac-
count, as it is claimed, of its cheapness.
1t seems that it would be very poor pol
icy to build narrow gauge way if a
broad gauge can be built, for in that
case, no through connection with the
! cars of the road, could be made with
other roads, and all the heavy freight,
such as lumber, stone, ore, grain, &c.,
must be unloaded and reloaded at a
great expensShnd delay. 1t would make
more business at its junction with
other roads, but shippers would be
obliged to pay for the labor of the trans
shipment.
Among the events of the week may be
named the address of the Rev. Mr.. Cyr on
Father Hyacinthe, the monk and the or
ator, very good address; and the lect-
ure of l.. E. Crittenden before the Vt
Historical Society. Subject ''Ticonder.
oga." If Vermonters want their pride
gratifed, let them read this address
which will be distributed in the libraries
of the state, and they will rejoice that
Eathan Allen was their ancestor and
that they are among his descendants
The news of the election is causing
great rejoicing among republicans, ano
they will celebrate tonight with speech
es, guns and torches.
Politics are quite exciting here ON &C
count of the contest in the second Con
gressional District between Poland anc
Steele The friends of each are doins
their best to secure the proper delegate
to attend the convention at White Rive
on the 23d of the month.
The nomination of Gov. Hendee TO
Congress in your district seems to be
foregone conclusion. Senator Morril
and Representative Willard will be re
turned to Congress without opposition

were selectmen of Barton. Said district
had appointed committee to erect a
school house for it. The committee be-
ing unable to agree, requested the plain

said committee, and not under the stat
Ute Plaintiffs let the job to A. d. Ma
theHs of Barton Landing, who built the
house in question, and which was accept
ed and paid for by the plaintiffs. The
defendant refused to accept and pay for
the building, claiming that it was not
well built, and furthermore that the
plaintiffs were never employed by defend
ant to act as its agent. Edwards & Dick

to see that party which was the only
hope of slavery leave behind it errors
and unjust principles, and stand with
him upon a platform of equal rights for
all. Some may call this desertion of
principle, but is it not the more manly
combatant who extends the hand after
the conflict is ended? Is it not coming
near to that higher rule of life?
Another charge is of DESERVING his par
ty, and right here occurs the thought,
WHAT'S the object of party and what
are its legitimate powers? Is it to think
for man? thus doing away with his
reason, or is it to augment the power of
those who think alike by unity of action ?
[ think any candid person will agree that
one has perfect liberty to act indepen-
IDENTIFY of his party when that party cea-
ses to act in accordance with his ideas of
right, and to do so without being called
traitor to his party and principles.
1t is charged that Mr.. Greeley advoca-
ted secession at the commencement of the
war. The man is not human who makes
no mistakes, and he comes near perfec-
ton who makes but one in lifetime
Mr. Greeley was not alone in the opinion
that peaceable separation was preferable
to a destructive civil war. George VIM.
Curtis of Harper's Weekly advocated the
same doctrine, and Gen. John A. Dix
gave utterance to the same sentiment in
a speech at Cooper Institute in 1864 1t
is of the same piece with Grants saying
that he would carry his sword to the reb-
ell side if he found the war was being
waged in the interests of the abolition
lists.
Many at this day denounce Greeley for
bailing Jeff Davis. There is but one
way of changing an Insignificant man
into an irresistible power, and that is to
kill him for his principles sake. The
south thought they had destroyed the
power of old John Brown when they had
strangled him to death, but if Virginia
had given him his liberty and the best
estate in the commonwealth, he could not
have injured their cause 1.-THE of what
he did by dying on the scaffold. JEFF
Davis hanged for treason would have fix
ed the hearts of the south for vengeance
as did the death of Lincoln the heart Of
every true patriot. Living, he is of nc
political significance, but is despised and
stunned at home and abroad.
We hear much about Greeley's being
a profane man, the Toledo Blade charac
terizing him as "the most direct bias
phemer in the country" This is proved
to be lie, but still the cry is kept up
Then man down in Pennsylvania swears
that Greeley said he would pension reb
ell soldiers if elected president, but be-
fore it is cold the same man swears thai
he told lie in saying So; but still the
republican press teens with assertions
that it will not do to elect Greeley as b,
would pension every rebel soldier.
