The Memorial TO Rev. DIR. Hicks.

We have before alluded to the beauti-
full mural tablet, in nmemory of the Rev,
DR. Hicks, which was placed in Trinity
Church, at Christmas, through the liber
ality of present and fotEnef parishion8rs,
who remember and revere him as their
pastor and teacher, aad promised f.r-
ther description thereof, which we now
give:
The tablet is Of fine Vermont marble,
which inopurity, texture, and HusCepti-
bility of high polish, closely resembles
Che Italian statuary marble. 1t is six
feet in height, and two feet and nine
inches in breadth, in the style known as
''the early decorated. Ornamented but
tresses, terminated by gablets, support a
gable, whose final is a trefoil, and the
h0Od-n>ould of which, is decorated with
ball-hOwers Within tae gable is To-
lated pointed arch, the cusps of which,
as WELL as tie spandrels. arc enriched
with tracery. Aboge the arch a quatre-
foil panel. sunk into the gable, contains
in relief cross and crown. The arch
itself rests upono capitals, carved with
the cmblcms of the Holy Eucharist, and
supported by columns of yariegated lnar-.
bic, which afford picae'ing contrast to
the ppre white Of ihc rest of the tablet.
The whole rests upon corbcl4. inserted
in the wall Of the church.
The details of the design were 'elaEor-

Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1872-02-01

I There are two methods of crushing
first by stamps in a mill, mills generally
crush about one ton a day to the stamp.
and in an arasue where ii is ground by
running heavy stones over it in a bed
with a stone or iron floor; an arastre
win generally grind about one ton a day,
/ but it is erected at a much less cost than
a mill and it is generally conceded will
save gold better. Mills often have an
arastre attached to help save the gold.
\ lead that will save eight or ten dol
lars ton, with a creyice not less than
four feet wide, and soft quartz so il is
easy got out viii pay very well in a mill
where they can crush a good deal Of it.
\ great many things have to be taken
into consideration in calculating which,
er a lead viii pay or not, the distance il
has to be hauled. The cost and facil-
tiles for crushing, the expense in taking
the quartz from the mine, and many
other items Of expense. in fact man
can tell but little about the paying of a
lead until lac has the gold out and the
money in his pocket, then he can tell
how much he has.
There is some excitement in this Ter
ritory at present about silver leads.
mostly on account Of some new reduc-
ton works which hayea been lately er-
ected at Helena, the principle city, they
have Just started and I believe are a
success. There is a great deal of silver
ore through The Territory, but very lit
tie has been worked, the ore is of q re-
factory nature, 50 much pure metal in it
they have had no process Of working il
heretofore. The time IS coming when
silver mining will be a prominent branch
of industry in this part of the world.
There is some very rich ore here, /
know OF aJlead that the only piece6
ever prospected went 800 q ton. yet it
is not sunk over twenty fees A person
East would think it curious that no one
would take the trouble TO sink a shaft
more than twenty feet when there was
ore found there as rich as that. but in
miners phrase it played out so they
quit it. But there is in reality jgst as
good a chance Of striking a large and
rich lead there as in any place, only
miners want every thing to pay as they
do the work, and in fact most Of them
have to have the gold as they 90, not be-
ing blessed with a super1uity of this
worlds goods. One word Of advice to
young men thinking of GOING West,
don't leave a good business or fair pros
poets there, but if you have nothing
to do, and are willing to work here, you d
can find plety 70 do at good wages West.

A Fancy.

Something came to my soul to-day,
Out OF the misty past,
AS spar from q wrecked and Sunken
ship
May f1oat to the shore at last
A vague and shadowy vision
That vanished as soon as 1t came,
For memory could not grasp it
OTgive it place and name
1t seemed like q dim remembrance
OF life in another sphere,
And left me III silent wonder,
Waiting as if to hear
A voice that l mad long forgotten,
With message of welcome sound
I2fting me nearer Heaven,
AS vapOrs rise from the ground.
There may be times when the spirit
Escapes from the house of clay
And flies to its native heaven,
As a child goes out to play
And the glimSes that fit so dimly
At times across m2mOrY's track,
Are something it finds in Heaven
That it longs to carry back.

rhe Apportion,nent Question.

The Apportionmcnt Bill as reported
TO the Senate by the Judiciary commit
tee on Tuesday, is essentially changed
from the shape in which it passed the
House The bill now fixes 151, 100 as
the number Of Inhabitants necessary for
d member Of the House, which gives 222
members Of the House, II more by frac-
tions, and one each to Delaware, Nebras-
ka, Nevada and Oregon, making a total
of 243. The States which obtain each
one representative by fractions are:
Tennessee, Maine, Maryland, Ohio, New
York, North Carolina, Minnesota. West
Virginia, Virginia, New Jersey, Wiscon-
sin, Missouri, Indiana, Louisiana, Iowa,
California and Georgia. This cOmpari-
son is made with the present apportion-
ment, Under the bill offered on Tues
day, each Of the New England States,
except Connecticut, loses one member,
and New York loses two. A section Of
the bill provides that no State shall be
hereafter admitted to the Union without
having the necessary population to enti-
lie it to one representative, in accordance
with the new apportionment Should
sny State, after the passage Of this act,
deny or abridge the right of any male in
habitant, twenty one Yeas Of age and
citizens of the United States, to vote at
any election named in the constitution,
except for participation in the rebellion,
or other crimes, the number of represen-
tatiyes apportioned to such State shall
be reduced in proportion, TO the ratio
which the number of such male citizens
shall bear to the whole number of male
citizens. twenty one years Of age in such
State.

British View oS the ALA ba.,a Case.

Mr.. Smalley writes from London to
the Tribune, that there ''are breakers
ahead" In the matter of the Alabama
case before the Geneva Arbitrators. He
is disposed to acknowledge more strength
in the case made up by the eminent
counsel on the side of Britain, than
Americans are willing to concede. The
bone of the London press and clubs ON
the effect of the late treaty on the ques-
zion, Is very different from that obsery-
able here. 1t is not believed, or at
least, admitted that even the rules of in
ternational law laid down in the treaty
for governing the action of the arbitra-
tors, and which were opposed by the
British negotiators as er post .tacto, will
have much influence over the decision
of the long disputed claims. 1t is init
mated that the reply to the argument
presented by the counsel for the United
States will create great surprise in
this country, as has the British interpre-
tation OF the treaty. But, as the cor
respondent sagely observes, it matters
little what opinions the public hold,
either here or in England, SO long as the
decision of the whole question rests with
Board OF Arbitration, whose fairness
we have no reason to doubt.

A Runaway Pond.

An East Hardwick (Vt., } letter to the
Portland Press revives' the following
bit of curious local history %
LongPond. or, as 1t is now ,betterk known
RUNAWAY Fond," is situated ;artly in
Glover and partly in. Greensboro This
nOnd was one and half miles fong, and
q half mile wide, and formerly ttis'
CHARGED it's waters southerly in LamOille
River. Gg the 9th day Of June, 1910,
about fifty persona went to this pond for
tile purpose Of opening az. outlet to the
north irto Barton River, that the mills
Of chat stream might receive an occa-
si0nal supply of water. a small chan
mel was eXCayatGd, and the water COM
menced cunning in a nOIfhorly direction.
It happened that the nOrtherno barrier Of
the pond consisted entirely of o3iicksand,
except an encrusting of clay next to the
w2ter. The sand was Immediately rem0v-
c1 by the current and 2. large channel
formed. and the crust Of clay was inca
pable of sustaining the mass OF water
and broke. 50 that the whole pond !m-
mediately took a nOrtherly course and in
fifteen minutes,timc the bottom OF the
pond was bare. 1t was discharged so
suddenly that the country below was in
stantly inulld4tcd
The Gciugc advanced in . wall of
waters sixty OF seventy feet high and
twenty rods wide, lsyeling forests and
hills and filling upvalleys, sweeping off
mills, houses and. barns, fences and cat
tie as it passed, for ii distance of ten
miles. and barely giving the inhabitants
notice to escape. \ rock supposed to
weigh one hundred tons was removed
half IA mile from its bed, The waters
moved so rapidly ;hat they reached Lake
Nemphrcmagog, tWcnty-scycn miles dis
tant:' in aboGt six hours from the time
they left the pond The dry, bed of

CREATION OF WOMAN.

While Adam slept, God from him took
A bone; and, as an omen,
He made it as a seraph look,
And thus created woman.
He took this bone not from his pate,
To show her power ample;
N9r from his feet, to designate
That he on her might trample;
But meath his arm, to clearly show
He always should protect her;
And near his heart, to IL him know
How much he should respect her.
He took this bone. crooked enough,
Most crooked of the human.
To show him how much crooked stuff
He'd always find in woman.
