On Friday evening last, about one
hundred and twenty-five ladies and gen
tlemen assembled at the Knight House
to have a good time generally and to
partake of one of Knights bountiful re-
pasts, for which he and his house are so
justly celebrated. The supper was all
that heart or appetite could wish. The
table was laid in exquisite taste, and was
supplied with the products of the forest,
the tropics, the sea and its islands, all
happily blended so as to make one of
the best suppers ever spread before a
hungry Vermonter The writer of this
has travelled some and has never seen the
supper equaled. We may remark, en-
PEASANT, that Vermont probably could
not produce a more difficult landlord and
landlady to successfully follow, in keep
ing hotel, than David and Julia
Mcbride, of Brandon, and it is sufficient
to say of Knight that he maintains the
high reputation established for the house
by "Dave."
The supper was heartily enjoyed. Our
people came together for good time,
and they had it. All classes of business,
all professions and all ages were repre-
sented. Grandfathers and grandaughters,
husbands and wives, brothers and sis
tiers, teachers, clerks, mechanics, ETC.,
all came together.

The Alabama Claims.

1t is said in official circles that our
government has no information which
eXcites fears that the Geneva arbitration
will fail in its objects, Notwithstanding
the recent comments of the London
press representing the American state
ment Of the case before that tribunal.
And attention is called to the fact, that
in commissioning the British high COM
missions, Queen Victoria pledged her
royal word that whatever things should
be transacted and concluded by her high
commissioners should be agreed to, ack-
nowledged and regarded by her in the
fullest manner, and that she would never
suffer, either in whole or in part, any
person whomsoever to infringe the same
or act in contradiction thereto. as far as
it lay in her power.
The treaty, it is known, provides that
should it appear that Great Britain has
failed to fulfil any duty or duties as to
so-called Alabama Expectations, and the
arbitrator do not award to the United
States the sum in gross, it is agreed that
a board of assessors shall be appointed
to ascertain what claims are valid, and
what amounts are to be paid by Great
Britain, on account Of the liabilities arts
ing from such failure as to such YES
sells. according to the extent of such
liability, As is decided by the arbitra-
tors.
1t appears, from the protocol, that at
the conference held on the Sth of March
the American commissioners claimed
that Great Britain, by reason of failure
in the proper observance of her duties
as a neutral had become Justly liable for
the acts Of cruisers and their tenders
that the claims for the loss and destruc-
ton Of private property which had thus
far been presented, amounted to about
S14. 900. 900. without interest, which
amount was liable to be greatly increased
by claims which have not been present

mcnt had been put in pursuit Of the
cruisers could be easily ascertained by
the certificates of the accounting officers,
and that, in the hopes Of an amicable
no estimate was made of in

ever, to the right of indomnifation on
this account, in the event of no such
settlement being made
