THE REPUBLICAN SENTIMENT IN Den
MARIA sensation was produced in
Volksthing, as the Danish House of
Representatives is called, lately. by the
introduction of a bill by Deputy Berg, a
member Of the Left, proposing the an0-
lition of the nobility and of all titles and
orders. Herr Berg goes still further,
and desires that Danish subjects should
/ be forbidden to accept foreign orders;
that certain privileges now enjoyed hy
the nobility should be done away with,
with the reservation. however, that the
rights of the noblemcn now living should
be respected, In laying the proposition
before Parliament the Deputy declared
that the party to which he belonged sup
ported his views, and for the principles
here enunciated both he and his support
crs were resolved to struggle.
BRITISH RlsTeCRATIC FAMILY UNION.
The marriage of the Marquis of Butte
to daughter of Lord Edward Howard,
of Derbyshire- which, it is said, has
been arranged to take place at an early
day-will unite three Of the most noble,
rich and powerful families i'll Great Brit
ain-Howard, of Norfolk, Crichton-
Butte and Sutherland-in close household
alliance, and surround the happy pair
with a circle of relatives moving in a
sphere of society not less distinguished
perhaps than their own. The church
ceremonial will be imposing by its solem-
nifty and grandeur, and the marriage
may herald the near approach of remark
able changes in the religio-political con-
dition of the United Kingdom.
MAYOR HALLS TRIAL.-The trial of
Mayor Hall is not expected to begin be-
fore next Monday. Judge Charles ?.

Civil Service Reform

NAt''
means the violent opposition in Con-
gress to the civil service reform and
coming too, from the party that has pro
claimed itself the paragon OF reform. Is
it said. the opposition is in relation to
the methods or measures proposed q?
What, | ask, are the measures the Oppo-
sitiOn substitute, for the accomplishment
of the desired object | discover none
Not an effort is made for the cure of eX-
isting. and enormous evils, and for the
securing of honesty in the public service
by these OppOsers of the Presidents plan.
They olamOr and preach reform, but,
without any measures, This is no new
position. Who does not remember that
in the early history of the temperance
reform, men preached temperance, but
denounced all feasible measures in the
early discussion Of slavery, there was a
great class of men who acknowledged
slavery to be the 'sum Of all yillanies,
but stood aloof from all measures adopt
ed for its abolition. Is it not apparent
that this opposition in Congress is not to
this, or that. method, but to the reform
/ itself,
There has been vast amount OF cor
ruption, fraud, and rascality growing
out of the present system of appoint
ments. The people are provoked and
/ indignant at this opposition, they have
endured with long patience the tiagrant
evils of the present system, they de-
mand radical reform, they are deter
mined to take the power from the hands
/ that have so long abused it.-they do
not care particularly what method is
adopted if appointments are taken out
of the present market, and are made
with "a sacred regard to capacity and in
/ tegrity Is it true that d great number
of the constituted guardians of the pub
lie interests, sQurm and resist a reform
in view of its influence OH their personal
private interests. The people have
watched Congress for maUy years in the
matter OF the franking ahusc-thc mem
bers have not dared frankly to justify,
and defend, that abuse but they have
dared in the face Of d well settled public
sentiment to protect il. Has it come to
this. that an evil from which the people
sOrely suffer, cannot be removed if it
tends to the pecuniary, or political inter
ests of the officials at Washington 1t

Thomas Shaw, formerly OF West Troy,
4. Z, and atterward a well-known in
habitant of West Haven, Vt, where he
died in 1847.
Mrs. Shaw never had a family of her
own, but being one of a large circle of
brothers and sisters, her house was a
home to a numerous family of her neph-
eWa and nicCes, who viii not fail to re-
member with gratitude her kindness in
the by-gone times. She was born in
western Massachusetts, and came with
her father (William Miller to Hampton,
then Greenfield alias New Haven, near
the close of the last century.
She was a sister of the late William
Miller so well known to the public a
few years ago. Of her eleven sisters
and five brothers, ten of the sisters and
three of the brothers had families, some
of them very large, and all lived to a
goodly age. She made her home for
the last twenty years with her sister and
sister-in-law, widow Lewis Shaw, of
Hampton, where she died, and where
her funeral was attended on the 21st
inst, Rev. r. L. Herbert, of Fairhayen,
preaching al able and eloquent discourse
on "The Conditions and Blessings of
Old Age"
There were present at the funeral, of

\ SINGULAR ACCIDENT. On Wednes-
day the locomotive "St. Albans" was
backing up to Pittsford in order to assist
in drawing from that station to Rutland
a heavy freight train. When a short
distance from Center Rutland, and about
three miles from this place, John Nc
Even, the fireman, in passing from the
engine to the tender made a misstep and
fell from the engine to the road bed. As
soon as the engineer discovered that
the fireman was missing, he reversed his
engine, and slowly returned. keeping all
the time sharp lookout, expecting to
find the dead body of his comradc. At
ter proceeding short distance he met
McEwen walking along, apparently
and as cool end unconcerned as
if he expected to overtake the engine
before its arrival at Pttsford. He was
taken aboard the engine, and is now as
we'll as ever, only suffering somewhat
from Slight bruises.

A LITTLE SCRAP oE History. If
Vice President ColfaN should be renom-
mated and reelected it will be the first
time, with a single exception, that a Vice
President has been his own successor in
the history of our government The OK
ception was that of Daniel d. Tonpkins
of New York, who served as Vice Presi-
dent under the two terms Of President
Monroe, one of which terms occurred in
what is historically known rs the era of
good feeling" from 1921 to 1925 The
instances in which a Vice President has
stepped from that position to the Pr-zi-
dency are six, to wit John Adams,
Thomas Jefferson, Martin Van Buren,
John Tyler, AIillard Fillmore and An
drew Johnson-the three latter succeed
ing to the Presidency on account Of the
demise of the regularly elected incum-
brnts while holding office

however, that while the tax must be
paid this year, there are yet votes enough
in the House to defeat any attempt to
re-impose it. In that case, this is the
lastpayment, as the act expires the pres
ent year by limitation Amasa Walker
is eXerting himself to have it re-enacted.

EDITOR CHRoNICLE:- Our pleasantly
located village is gradually increasing
in population, business is drifting to a
level with the requirements of its sur
rounding patrons, and henceforth if
coming seasons shall find its people as
earnestly engaged in consolidating and
identifying the town as present i'm
provements evince, then will it excel
any village of its size in this vicinity in
those superiorities which tend to inau-
ence the decision of those seeking a
permanent abiding pace, free from the
necessary confusion incident to a large
town, and with equal travelling facilities.
The new depO; in course of erection is
now enclosed and rapidly nearing COM
pletion under the supervision of Webb
Reeman it will be an ornament to the
town.
The present incumbent of the Disciple
pulpit, Ira A. Thayer, is a young man
OF marked ability; his sermons are
characterized by a depth OF thought and
clear logical power combined with an
earnest delivery and originality that
presage for his mature years a high
position as a pulpit orator.
The Yearly Meeting held in Amos
Rawlie's grove, beginning August sd
and continuing until the 26th, was an
unusual success if pleasant weather,
delightful locality, a large ~ncou of
people and the distinguished speaker,
Elder Isaac Errett, are true indications.
The author of the piece entitled from
B~aconsburg, which appeared in your
issue of the l4th ult., is undoubtedly
mistaken respecting the political tend.
ency of q position of our Republican
citizens. The Greeley and Brown Re-
publicans of this village who are known
TO their friends number twelve l2). As
to the Prohibitionists, we believe there
are five who we're Republicans foHr
years ago aud one of The Democratic
faith.
A Democrat in whom dependence can
be plac' d, informs me that he has can
vas sed the Democrats and with the
exception of one they intend to vote for
Greeley and Brown. He will not vote for
either of the candidates. S. c. D.

GESTAYTS.

The Sunday Schools of Gustavu.
met in the NJ. T. Church on Sunday
August 18th, and were addressed by
Professor P. P. Bliss, of Chicago, and
Rev. Mr.. Clisby, of Letonia. Profess
ors Bliss, McGranahan and Case,
with Mrs. Bliss and Case, gave us
some of their choice music, stirring
the hearts of all present. It was q
heavenly jubilee for the Sunday
Schools of our town.
Our schools had their annual pic
mic in Lewis Pelton's grove, north of
the centre, on Saturday, Aug. 3Ist.
Our. Silver Cornet Band gave us some
fine music, as is their custom on all
occasions. The children gave US some
of their select peices under the lead
of c. C. Case, and we think
old and young left the ground feeling
that the Sunday School is a grand
institution.
We have a select school in II
Academy, taught by J. F. Bacon, a
graduate of the Orwell Institute,
which promises to be a success.

Death or Mr.. Isaiah Dickey.

Mr.. ISAIAH DICKEY, formerly a
citizen of Warren, and brother of
s. F. Dickey, Esq, of this place, died
in Pittsburgh, where he has resided
for a number of years, on Friday,
August 23d, ult. The Pittsburgh
Gazette in its mention of the death If
Mr.. Dickey says:
The mercantile, social and religious
community will be alike started and
panied to learn that Mr.. Dickey is no
more. Only last week he returned from
a business trip to middle Tennessee,
apparently in MS usual rudy health.
We conversed with him on Wednesday
last without discovering any sign of the
near approach of the grim messenger.
We were, therefore. incredulous when
told last eV ening that Isaiah Dickey was
no more. We nav not state the paTticu-
lars exactly correct, but have under
stood that DIR. King made a surgical
operation upon him on Thursday Tor
hernia. We did not learn whether the
hernia was an old or recent one, but the
operation was successfully performed
and the patient said TO require only a
few days of quiet TO perfect the cure
but that nausea with violent vomiting
supervened and the rupture was nus
reproduced with fatal consequences.
Mr.. Dickey was a a native of New
Hampshire, and as nearly as our menu
DRY serves US, came To this city from
Warren, Ohio, about 1920 or 1880, was
first employed in the bookstore of the
late Robert PATERSON, afterwards en-
gagged in business on his OWL account, !
more recently associated his brother.
Mr.. Robert Dickey with him, and thus
was sorIned the well known house of
Isaiah Dickey & Co., which has main
tanned for many years a high reputation,
for dash and enterprise 20 much as
for unimpeachable integrity and a .
lar straight forward meIhodical business
Deceased was noted for his exemplary
moral and religious life. He was a
jealous and a working member, and we
believe an elder in the Fifth Presbyterian
Church, under the pastoral care of DR..
JacObus. His loss to the church will be
felt, in business circles sincerely
lamented, and to his family an over
whelming calamity.
In this bereavement it is a happy
reflection that our friend wore the world
as a mantle, loosely, and ready to be
off when the summons should
come. Blessed are the dead who die
in the Lord"

Pole Raising Up Town.

The Grant and Wilson voters, residing
or working in the vicinity of the Upper
Depot, raised a fine pole on Saturday
afternoon at 4 o'clock. A large streamer
floats at the top, bearing the names of
the Republican candidates. A beautiful
national flag some is feet long was also
run up and flung to the breeze.
Quite a crowd gathered to assist in the
affair. Stirring little speeches were
made by 7. J. McLain, Jr., and Mayor
Dawson; Jno. NJ. Stull, Esq, started
"old John Brown" which was sung
with great energy; several rounds of
cheers were given for Grant and Wilson,
for the flag, and for the North Warren
boys. The G~reeleyites who have been
clustering about the desertions" in
that quarter from the Republican ranks,
may as well "hang up de fiddle and de
bow" for it is all in their eye. The
Greeley train OF the upper road " is
running down grade" like lightning,
and will fly off the track in October.
