Mr.. Mute, the formerly we'll known landlord
at Marshfield, supported by Jack Hub
bard" of Montpelier as first mate, did the
cuisine, and the large party that climbed to
the summit of "Owls head near by, after
dinner, realized how beautifully they had
been reinforced for the ascent. The view,
by the way, from this elevation is one OF the
finest we have ever seen in Vermont or else
where. After taking in a wealth in mill logs
to the am ,unt of at least three townships,
the eye could sweep around in clear horizon
from Mount Mansfield and Camers Hump to
Mount Washington, with its snow summit
and still ice-bound railroad, which was dis
tinctly visible by the aid of good field
glass. When the cars run over the Mont
pelier and Wells River Railroad, which from
present appearances will be before snow
flies " again, this will be point worth visit
ing for those who ascend to mountain
tops ;" and as a resort for pleasure parties
and pienics, Vermont in its abundance can
offer but few spots more attractive.
Among those who met the party from
Montpelier was Judge Hall Of Groton, who
| became interested in railroad over this
route twenty years ago, and with o. II
Smith, Daniel Baldwin, j. A. Wing and r
r. Keith pioneered an enterprise which i,
soon to be completed. Il is true the engin
eer Of that day found it necessary to make a
thirty foot cut at the summit where now the
I 10, Io,J 10 I,trt h.
world does not 20 around without pro
ducing results, and elevations and depres
sions which are only relative, are as muci
in the line of progress in the way of being
overcome as were obstacles which have en-
/ tirely disappeared, Judge Hall was able t,
point out the summit stake, planted at tn
time Of the former survey, only a few fee
from the present road-bed
Whatever may be the future connections
and uses Of this road, it is in its immediate
aspect a local enterprise, and its success is G
vast importance to this and other towns alon
its line. We do not believe that any citizer
of this town or of any town between Mont
pelier and Wells River, especially those who's
wild lands have more than quadrupled j.
value since its construction commenced, car
over-estimate its value, and that it should b
aided with all the tender care required t
bring any new railroad into existence
Vermont, is not point to be argued
We were happy to meet on the line Of tn
road, Mr. Munson, the younger brother Of tn
contractor, who was diligently looking afte
the interests of the route and employees, an
in a manner particularly acceptable to tn
latter, as his presence, we understand
brought payday.
There seems to be no doubt at the preser
time that the road will be in a running con
dition by the first Of October next, or prev
GUS to the meeting of the next session Of tn
Legislature.

upon the supposition that all the provisions
of the Ku Klux bill expired with this session
of Congress. This is not only not correct
but iu fact every section but the one relating
to the writ of ha6eas corpus remains in force.
Some vigorous provisions viii still have life,
and among them the following section
Sec. 8. That in all cases where
instruction, domestic violence, unlawful
combinations, or conspiracies in any State
shall so obstruct or hinder the execution of
the laws thereof and of the United States, as
to deprive any portion or class of the people
of such State of any of the rights, privileges,
or immunities, or protection, named in the
Constitution and secured by this act, and the
constituted authorities Of such State shall
either be unable to protect, or shall, from any
cause, fail in or refuse protection OF the
people in such rights, such facts shall be
deemed a denial by such State Of equal
protection of the laws to which they are
entitled under the Constitution of the United
States; and in all such cases, or whenever
any such instruction, violence, unlawful
| combination, or conspiracy shall oppose or
obstruct the laws of the United States,
| or the due execution thereof, or impede OF
obstruct the due course of justice under
| the same, it shall be lawful for the President,
and it shall be his duty to take such mea-
sures, by the employment OF the militia OF
the land and naval forces Of the United
/ States, or - either, or by other means, as he
NAV deem necessary for the suppression o.
such instruction, domestic violence, or com
| binations and any person who shall be
arrested under the provisions of this and the
preceding section shall be delivered to the
marshal of the proper district, to be dealt
with according to law.
This provision, it will be seen, gives the
| President authority to use all the military
and naval forces of the United States to de
fend citizens of the United States in the en-
ioyment of their rights. Other provisions 0
the bill give redress in the United State
courts to persons whose rights are invaded
and provide for the punishment, by crimina
proceedings, Of those who violate the proyis
ions Of the law What the President actual
~ did last summer in the way of suppressinl
the Ku Klux in South Carolina was, in fact
done under the provisions of the law othe
than the fourth section, and while he did. b.
proclamation suspend the privilege Of tn
writ, nothing was accomplished by tina
proclamation that might not have been bette
accomplished without it.
We can but think the action of the Hous
wise and properly respectful to the guarantee
Of the constitution, in refusing to extend thi
extraordinary power, only to be used i
moments Of greatest peril to the existence
of government itself. Certainly it would b

The GOVERNOR QuEsTIox,-The St. Al

The GOVERNOR QUEsTION-The st. Al
bans Messenger of last week, discusses
further the Governor question as follows
1t was supposed by the people in this part
of the State, and, so far as we are informed,
was we'll understood in political circles, that
the announcement of Governor Stewards can
didacy for denomination settled the question
as to who should be Governor, and that Mr.
Billings would not be a candidate. But last
week the Woodstock Standard Bellows Falls
Times and St. Johnsbury Cdledoaian had ar
ticles strongly indicative of an unwillingness
to accept that result and distinctly intlmat-
ing that Gov. Stewart had deceived the
friends of Mr.. Billings. They are altogether
mistaken. His position is now Just what 1t
has been all the time, namely he is in the
hands Of the people. When there was a
prospect that we should have but two con
gressional districts and that he was the man
upon whom all would most willingly unite
to represent one of them, he gave quasi
consent to the use of his name, though all
the while informing his friends that many
had expressed desire to re-elect him Gov
ernor, and that if such a desire was general
be should prefer this Office.
The authority he then gave was that the
proposed change might he discussed, with
reference TO ascertaining the wishes of the
people but the use of his name which he
thus permitted was constructive now see
how unjustly-into an acceptance on his
part Of the programme which our friends still
urge.
This definition of his position we had from
his own lips, and we are almost equally well
assured that when the first newspaper an
nouncement was made, which began the
discussion some weeks ago, he did not con-
slider it-as certainly we did not-a fair
statement of his position, and he was tempted
at that very time to authorize statement
that he should prefer candidacy for Gov
ernor. In this connection we cannot torbear
to state that the scheme for retiring him
from the field for Governor was cooked up
by other parties and urged upon him against
his will. He had received many tangible
evidences that the people desired him to
take reelection, and we have been inform
ed that he has received letters from all parts
of the State urging him not to consent to any
other plan There must be we'll grounded
reason for all this and it is so obvious that
we shall be spared the unpleasant necessity
of stating it. And we trust the friends of
any other candidate will not now so far
press their championship as TO compel a
discussion which can result in no good to
them and may tend to divide those whose
pleasure it may be hereafter, as it has been
heretofore, TO work together. Governor
Stewards lifelong residence in the Sta e, to-
gether with his familiarity with our people
and his valuable services in State affairs, are
sufficient reasons, without stating any other,
why there has been a rapidly growing deter
mination, ever since his own wishes became
certainly known, to extend to him the same
compliment of reelection with which Yer
mont has honored so many Of his predeces-
sors no worthier than himself.
