it, on Prospect street.
The building is built of brick, deco
rated with courses of Perth Anboy and
Hudson river brick, and. has massive
portico of Ohio stone in front. The
architecture is somewhat peculiar, but
the general effect of the structure is
very pleasing. On entering. the main
hall, one is ushered into large corridor,
from the middle of which runs broad
staircase to the second floor. At the
end of the hall is the general public. lee
ture room. This will accommodate 500
or 600 people. 1t is arranged in the
form of an ampitheater, and affords the
best possible chance for the reception of
instruction. In-the rear of this, hall or
room is large desk, on which the lee
turer can arrange his apparatus and
directly back of the desk is door open
ing into small apartment, in which the
professor may attend to his studies. The
lecture room is furnished in white pine
with black walnut cappings, and the ar
engagements for lighting and ventilation
are excellent. On the same floor there
are also four recitation rooms, for the
use of the students and professors. On
the second floor there are rooms which
have been assigned to the professors of
civil engineering, physics, etc.: while
two more rooms are provided for recita-

the voters and taxpayers of the village,

FRANCE.

France seems to have great fear of a
free and untrammeled press, and yet to
have due appreciation of the power,
influence and importance of: the news
paper The left-or radical republicans
are just now. in an overweight state
of indignatiOn,. because the new presi-
dent has been attempting to tamper with
the independence of provincial Journal
ism. One newspaper has been suppressed
in Paris, and in the discussion on an in
terpellation, in reference thereto, Gam
beta caused a tremendous sensation,
by reading ministerial circular, adj
dressed to the projects of departments,
inquiring infinitely into the posi-
ton of the provincial press and sug-
costing, conffdentially, the employment
of subsidies and such other means Of in
fuence as can be secretly brought to
bear for its control. The Minister of
the Interior promptly admitted the au-
thenticity of the circular, and assumed
all responsibility thereof. A protract-
ed scene of confusion and excitement
ensued, resulting in the adoption of a
resolution of confidence in the govern
ment, by majority of siXty-fve votes.
The only significance that can be at
tached to this Interpolation, circular and
vote of confidence, is that France is
neither advancing or retrogading in the
principles of free government, and that
the coalition against Theirs is still appa-
.rently unbroken.,
We regard the issuing of the circular
and the virtual endorsement thereof, by
the Chamber of Deputies, as neither
strange, startling or surprising. 1t,
probably, took all the imprisoned ora
tory of Gambetta to stir up the Assem-
bly, to a state of excitement IN reference
to any matter pertaining to the freedom
Of the press. 1t is an old subject in
France, as well as in this country, but
the opinions Of the rulers Of France
and the rulers Of the United States are
widely divergent. France never had.
free press, under any form of govern
ment, and we fear it will be many years
before it will have one The old Bour-
bon dynasty, the first republic, the first
empire, Louis Philippe, the second en-
pire, .Thiers and MacMahon, all, have
carried into practice the same ideas in
reference to newspapers. Full, perfect
and unrestricted freedom has been al
lowed to commend and uphold all gov
ernmental acts, and to flatter the iHdivid.
uals composing the government, while
all impartial criticism, or opposition to
acts or measures of policy have been re-
pressed by the strong arm of power,
even to suppression. Theirs established
a censorship of the press and suppressed
all that advocated obnoxious measures
or opposed the policy of his govern
ment MacMahon but followed the long
line of examples thus established for
him, and, therefore, no more evinced
leaning toward a.mpnarchy than toward
a republic. The day may come, although
no signs of it,are apparent, when such
despotic attacks upon the freedom of
the press may have some significance,
but such is not now the case.

Our washington Letter.
WASHINGTON, June 0.

WASHINGTON, June 0.
We never limited the scope of the
HERALDs influence. Certainly not, for
havn't we the best reason in the world
for thinking otherwise? But new in
stances of the power of the Press occur
to US now and then, just as anyone may
be suddenly brought to realizing sense
of fresh graces in. old friends. In our
last letter we were betrayed into a
growl over the weather. We then sat in
winter flarnels, shiveriHg around ceal-
fires late in May Cor early in June, which
was it y and mildly made mention of
the fact as being not just the thing, you
know, for the sunny south. We own
that we felt cross over it, but then, we
spoke pleasantly enough. About three
days after there was sudden hitchup
in the weather, the thermometer ran
from the stove up-to ninety, and ninety
degrees never scorched so before. Sum-
mer clothing had got .mislaid and never
thought Of, and men went sweltering
about like the 50 woody OK in Hafeds
dream We were sitting on the lower
floor welding the palmleaf and hand
kerchief when Ythepostman left the HER
AID, and we then and there read and
repcnted of our rash words, and came to
the logical conclusion that, as we know
that the HERALD is read by the head Of
the nation its power, therefore, extends
to the Weather Office. An unbroken
chain of circumstances points from cause
to effect, you see. We shall be more !
guarded, and il anything the weather
will be about right hereafter.

comment, be it UNDERSTOOD that after a
few days it toned down. to comfortable

Special to the Herald.l
Convention of the Diocese of Ver-
InnNI.
BURLINGToN, Tuesday, June 10.
FIRST DAY.

FIRST DAY.
The great events. of the day were
those connected with the translation of
the remains of the LATE Bishop Hopkins
from the old cemetery of the city to the
new one at Rock Point. The order of
services was according to the previously
arranged programme, attended by the
Vermont clergy and many lay delegates
and others, including, of course, the
family of the deceased Bishop. The
day was fine, and everything passed off
admirably. The music was exquisite,
conducted by the Harmonic Society,
composed of both ladies and gentlemen.
The clergy administering the Holy Com
munion at the Chapel of the Institute
were the Bishop, the Rev. DFs. SWEET
and Harris, and the Rev. Messrs. Bliss
and Atwill. The long procession of
ROBBED clergy and people was very strik-
ing and impressive. The whole occasion
was of remarkable emphasis and sue
cess, unparalleled in the history of the
Episcopal Church in this country.
The pail bearers were some of tire
chief laity of the Diocese, and the car
riers of the body were others of the
laity. The occasion will long be remem-
bered as one remarkably impressive and
touching, The conservation. of the
cemetery where now lie the sacred re-
mains, was also very appropriate and af-
fecting. The cruciform monument cost
between three and four thousand dollars,
and is marvel of strength, size and
beauty,
After the exercises were over, a COLA
ton was served at the Vermont Episco-
pal Institute.
After the solemn services at Rock.
Point, the clergy met at st. Paul's
Church, Burlington, at p. M, for re-
hearsal of music, also for "a conference
with the Bishop, who gave them timely
advice and counsel as TO their pastoral
relations and. their performance of the
offices of the Church.
= AT 730 evening prayer was rendered
by the Rev. Messrs. Chaplin of RAN
dolph, Harris of Brattleboro, McIlwaine
of Essex, N. Y, Cookson of Fort
Edward and White of Enosburg.
A Professional began, and a Re-.
cessiolal closed the service, sung by the
choir, and clergy. The sermon was by
the Rev. DR.. Hull of Montpelier, from
Matthew, vi, 10: "Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done, on earth, as it is in
Heaven The preacher showed, first,
that every baptised, or converted per-
son is, and should be, missionary :
second, that every missionary should do

Ho! FoR-BARNuM's w-The world
renowned p. T. Barnum and his far
famed Worlds Fair Show will visit

14th. Everybody. wants to attend the
great exhibition that resides within the,
radius of fifty miles of this town, and
that no obstacle may prevent their do

everybody will avail themselves of the
cheap fare to visit Rutland, and it will

the approval of ALL We believe the de-
cision of the court to be right and accord
ing TO the law, but if an error. has been
committed, it has been in the interest OF
life and liberty. 1t is better, after all,
that ninety and nine guilty persons should
escape rather than that one innocent
man should:suffer. If Stokes should be
! lyaly found guilty, we could record
his execution in the belief that society
gould be the gamer by his end, but,
though his hands may be stepped in the
blood of an improved, premeditated,
malicious murder, it were far better that
he should walk the streets of New York
free man, than that his life should be
sacrificed to prejudice, without the
forms of law and with disregard for all
the principles which civilization, humans
ity and law have established for the pro-
lection of man, and the well-being of.
society. Perhaps his immediate hanging
was necessary, in order to teach other
men, by his example, that terrible
doom awaits the criminal; but this lesson
has been forced with such repeated, swift
and awful significance, within the past
few months, that if it is eyerto have any
effect, one or two more or less examples
will not be materially felt. The record
of executions, during the year 1878, has,
already, been appalling, and in one
State alone tbpra arc t9rpz3tu
condemned murders, now awaiting their
doom, all of whom, in all human proba-
bility, viii expiate their crimes on the
gallows within the next three weeks.
If examples are wanted, every State, out
side of New England, furnishes them
without number, and we can afford to
wait patiently for proper and legal
conviction, before adding thereto.

with a serious accident on the 10th inst,
by falling from the roof of the Walker
cheese factory, which he was shingling,
to the ground, a distance of thirty feet.
When found he was lying between the
wheels of a double wagon and was taken
up for dead. He received a scalp wound
three inches in length, on the back of
the head, and was bruised on the face,
back and right elbow, but no bones were
broken. He has always worked upon
buildings, and this is the first serious ac-
cident of this kind he has ever had He
is a man over so years of age, and it is
remarkable that he gets out of this
alive. AS it is, he is doing well, with the
prospect of getting about again in a few
days. DIR. II. r. Jones and DR.. J. P.

The richest of us is poor indeed. The
summer, pleasant and enjoyable as it is, is
very apt to lay us open to this kind of
depreciation. The high temperature weak
ems the body and impairs its vitality. and
as the strength and energy of the system
decline, disease following I'M the trail OF
debility, Obtains foothold somewhere in
