A. Hicks, Esq, and his eslimablo lady,
and enjoyed very pleasant social time.
Miss Alice Starr, now engaged in teach
ing n grammar school at Shelburne Falls,
Mass, came up TO this place with about
thirty of her pupils last Saturday, the 2lst
inst. While here, the party made a call at
her fathers, Hon. Farley starts, who, with
his family, took special pains TO make the
interview Il very pleasant one for all their
young friends, which all enjoyed. Dur
ing this call a very pleasant incident oc-
cured, which was in the gift, by the pu-
pills, of a 81 pair of vases to their teacher
an agreeable surprise truly, as she had no
intimation of such a thing until the gin
was formally presented. This party re.
turned home early in the evening.
Christmas Eve was observed in his
place with appropriate exercises in the
Universalist church. The exercises were
opened by prayer by the Rev. II. Eastman,
after which the Universallst Sabbath school
gave q concert, the exercises consisting Of
recitation, songs, &c, by the children, in
which they all acquitted themselves finely;
which exercises were interpreted with
music, vocal and instrumental. Miss An
nette Starr presided at the organ; aud IS
also entitled to much credit for assistance
rendered preparing tor this occasion. Rev.
ii. Eastman read an appropriate poem,
after which the concert exercises were
closed, and that mysterious parsonage
so generally known as "Santa Claus" APP
peared and distributed, with the assistance
Of friends, young and old, the beautiful
presents so tastefully displayed ON those
Christmas trees The church was well
filed, and everything passed Off very
pleasantly, and TO all who were present and

The following resolutions were discussed
and adopted:
Resolued, That in view of tho high want
age ground occupied by Christian churches,
il IL their duty to stand in the front rank
in all moral reforms, and TO be especially
active in efforts to recover those who have
fallen victims TO intemperance, and to sup
press, in every community, the unlawful
sale Of intoxicating drinks.
ReSoluod, That while we still have much
10 deplore in looking over the intemper-
ance and the means of perpeluating 1t In
our State, we have great cause for cncour-
agement and hope from the interest ard
vigorous action taken in the great reform
by many of the churches and various tenn
perance organizations.
Resolved, That while we do not seek to
compel men to be temperate or religious,
by the power of human law, we rejoice to
know that the principle of enforced prohi-
btion Is becoming more and more obvious
as the settled policy of Vermont, and es-
pecialy as acknowledged by the dominant
political party of the State, at its last State
Convention and In the progress made by
tho last legislature towards the most thor
ough measures for suppressing the com
mon rum traffic.
ReSolued, That we heartily cooperate
with the National Temperance Society in
petitioning Congress to enact suitable laws
| prohibiting the traffic in intoxicating drink:
In the District of Columbia and in the Ter
ritories of the United States.

The rate at which a few leading railroads
in this country are leasing, buying or
stealing all the lesser lines is really
alarming, and by and by, when perhaps it
is too late, the people of the grand republic
will realize that they have a serious fight
on their hands to regain their rights and
liberties. The Pennsylvania Central, which
is n veritable king among American rail-
roads, making and unmaking Congress-
men at will, already controls sxty-three
once Independent corporations, represent
ing nearly 800, 100000 OF capital and $4,000
miles Of road. \ still further consolidation
is said TO be impending which will com
plete the work and practically place the
entire railroad system of the country under
one direction. This scheme contemplates
the union of the Pennsylvania Central, the
New York Central and the Baltimore &
Ohio Roads. When this is accomplished,
somebody will probably die for want of
more railroads to conquer.
