ANCIENT AND MODERN WEALTH COMPARED.
If now days one is In possession OF mil
lion of dollars he is almost worshiped. 1t
is now supposed that the Sprague family OF
Rhode Island is one of the richest in the land.
They have built monument worth 100000.
Much is spoken of the fortunes Of the Astors,
Vanderbilt, Stewart and the Rothschilds, but
their wealth sinks to insigni6cance compared
with fortunes Of olden times Ptolomaus
PbiIadelphus, in Egypt, had fortune OF
$3.50, 900 Cleopatra drank glass of vine
in which was dissolved pearl worth 1000.
Stewart, in New York, built house that cost
100000. What pittance! Cicero, paid
81, 500, 900 for a country seat. Mesella paid
$4,000 600 tor homestead Seneca, a phi
losopher like H. Greeley, was worth Sl2,OOO,-
OOO Tiberius left property worth $l2,OOO,0OO.
Now days every one is astonished II man
gets in bankruptcy with 100000 julius
Caesar owed S14 900 before he had any office.
Marcus AntoDius owed ST 100000 on his
election March Is, and paid it off March II. Not
enough, he afterwards cleared $I2O 100000
Now if an entertainment cost $1,000 1t
makes old peoples hair stand upright
What is this to old Roman times? IEsop
the poet, paid $40O 900 for a single party
Caligula paid the same price tor sup
per. They drank old wines worth twenty dol
lars an once and roasted pigs over fires made
Of nuts and raisins. The bedsteads Of Hell
ogablous were Of pure silver and gold. Eighty
thousand dollars were necessary to keep up the
dignity of a Roman Senator. Cicero and Pom
peius ounce paid visit to Lucullus. Nobody
was at home They helped themselves, and 1t
cost Luculus $4,000. -,
The capacity of Rome's theatres was tabu,
ous. The wooden theatres of Sharururs had
$1,000 seats, the Coliseum $1,000 seats, be-
sides 22,oOO standing places: Rome had then
between three and four millions of inhabitants;
The circus Maximus had room for 3SOoo
spectators There were at that time nine hun
dred public bathing places.
In the fifth century, after Rome was plum
dercd by the Germans and Vandals, Zachanas
historian, reports from Rome 3s4 streets So

100 perfume stores and 2,29l prisons.
Thcbans had paid for income duty IN one
year, six millions of dollars. Alexandria had a

RAILROAD ACCIDENT. - A freight
train from this place on the Rutland &
Burlington railroad, consisting of some
fifty cars, arrived at East Wallingford
on Thursday evening at nearly 8 o'clock
and stopped to take on wood, during
which time the mixed train came along
and ran into the rear end of the freight
train, throwing the engine down an en-
bankment of some fifteen feet. No one
seriously injured. The engineer, Martin
Ross, bravely stood at his post aud went
down with his engine, and fortunately
escaped with but few bruises. The
fireman jumped off before it went down
1t was remarkable that it was not more
serious. The fault was probably with
the freight train, in giving no signal
though we have seen no statement as to
the fault.

greet the detection Of Republicans from
the regular organization. We believe
that the objects of reform proiessec to
be sought by the liberal Republican
movement are mainly such as can be Sc
cured only in the Republican party,
while the only practical result Of the
movement will be to strengthen the De-
mocracy.
Resolved, We deprecate the restoration
of the Democratic party to power as en-
dangering the equal laws which against
the opposition of that party have recent
ly been engralted upon our system, AS pre-
venting any further progress IN the same
direction, and as likely tolead to the pre-
ferment and allowance of unjust and ex-
cessive Southern war claims against the
Government which would heavily in
crease taxation and seriously impair the
national credit.
RESOLVED, We pledge ourselves anew,
in this our first State Convention for two
years, to the great leading aims of the
Republican party, namely: the most
complete liberty and the most exact equal
iiy OF rights, under the law for all men
throughout the Republic; the promotion
of the education. intelligence and thrift
of every class of our population; the
most strict observance of public faith,
both towards our creditors by the pay
ment of our national debt, and towar is
our soldiers aud sailors by prompt and
generous provision for them, their Wild
pws and orphans; the preservation OF
peace 50 far as consistent with national
nonor and security; the cultivation OF
relations of confidence and good will with
all, from the old nations of the East to
the savage Tribes of the West; faithful
uess and economy in administration OF
he laws aud promptitude and thorough.
ness in the correction aud reform of all
abuses in any department OF the public
service.
Resolution by Gov. Fletcher, in favor
of Henry Wilson for Vice President.
Laid on the table.

How TO RAISE OSIoNs.-Mr. G. NJ
Pufier of Jamaica, sends US what he
thinks is sure method of raising onion:
and which be obtained from western
friends. He sows, (seed as we under
stand) and when up saves all that are
thinned out, and lays them away where
they will be kept dry and not freeze in
winter. These are set out the next
spring, and will grow to as large size as
those raised from black seed. He tried
this last year with fine success on two
beds, preparing the ground by rackiDg
in half bushel of hen manure into
each bed, and when up and large enough
to show signs of the maggot, made two
or three applications of cows urine, and
in less than a week there was not sign
of dead top among them, and ON these
two small beds he obtained nearly q
bushels of nice onions.

FIRST NEWSPAPER IN BELLOWS FALLS.
Mr.. Dennis Holden of West Townshend,
now in his SSth year, sends US word that
he thinks there was a paper printed here
as early as 1903, and has an impression
that it was called the Bellows Falls
Gazette" He is confident some paper
was printed here at that time. Can any
one give US information about it. We
think it doubtful. We have in our of
fee file of the Bellows Falls Intelli.
geneer," from 1917 to 1S20-commenc-
ing in January, 1917. The impression
of the older people of this place with
whom we have conversed, is that the
first printing Office was started here in
the fall of 1916, and the intelligence
alluded to above, was commenced the
January following.

PUTNEY.-On Monday of last week
John Robertson's house took fire from
the furnace, but was soon extinguished
with very little damage.
The Jerry Ryan place was sold at
auction on the Goth uIt, for 81 305, to
Mrs. Willis johnson. "Uncle" Jerry
Ryan leaves this week to spend the re-
mainder of his days with his grand son,
o. R. Smith, who is State Superinten-
dent Of schools for Wisconsin. He was
born in Putney and is now eighty-one
years of age, and will be greatly missed
in that community.
