Courteous but Wicked.

An Oshkosh wis., preacher and law
yer were lately riding, several miles from
town, when their horse ran away and they
were forced TO start for home on foot.
They were soon overtaken by woman
driving a nice team, whose invitation to
ride they Iwere only too happy to accept.
The young woman conducted herself mod
estly enough till they reached the main
street of the town, but then putting her
feet upon the dasher with great abandon
and lighting cigar, she put the lash to the
horse and drove up and down the street at
a tearing pace, treating the crowd that
came out to see the fun to sight of very
gay looking demi-monde and two respect
able but Mortified citizens. Four times she
drove through the street, and since then
the parson and lawyer have been busy in
explaining how It come about

The Business Of Eairhavcn.

Few towns in Vermont have had as healthy
a growth as has Farhaven since the open
ing of the slate quarries. The village we
may safely say is second in size in Rutland
county although one would hardly Judge
this by looking at the population Of the
town instead of taking in her square miles
and the amount of land untitled within its
territory. There are not over thirty farms
In town and some of these not extremely
large.
The business of Fairhavcn village may
be summarized as follows -Four slate mills,
three marbleizing mills, one marble mill,
three marble shops, one nail factory, one
factory for manufacturing Kerosene oil,
safes and refrigerators, one furnace, one
machine shop, one saw mill, and three
blacksmith shops one bank, one hotel,
four dry goods and grocery stores, two
drug stores, one hardware store, two jew
elers stores, four tailors' shops. one mil
liner store, two shoe shops, four groceries,
one meat market, two livery stables, two
saddler shops, and one billiard room. while
in the professional and literary line
there are two attornies, three physicians
beside several money lenders There are
seven church edifices with several more
religious societies in town, and seven dis
trict schools. The population of the town
represents some ten different nationalities.
The number of quarrics worked in town
| gives but faint idea of the slate business
of Farhaven as several quarries in Castle
ton and Poultney are worked wholly or in
part by Fairhaven capital. An adequate
capital to run the business done has always
been great hindrancc to the town. There
is very nearly one hundred and twenty-five
tons Of slate sawed in town daily, cxclu-
sivc of the roofing. The corporation of
which Col Alanson Allen is president run
two mills, A. II. Vail & Son have one and
Mr.. S Allen has one, all of which are be-
hind their orders. Could one or two hun
dred thousand dollars be invested in Fair
haven the town would soon be the princi-
pal point in Western Vermont.

A. N. Swain, editor of the Bellows Falls

United States Circuit Court at Windsor,

places.
Now new Judge, Ward Hunt, prcsides,
with Judge Smalley assisting. A larger
number of the bar were present than for
merly, and there is no lack of talent or
ability Edward j. Phelps of Burlington,
a son of one of the old Nestors of the bar
was the first to address the Court, and
Judge Poland the second to speak. Daniel

Quackcry in Medicine and its sad
Results.

A young lady employed in a collar shop,
in Troy, who had been suffering with Ca
tarrh, visited the so-called ''Dr Alfonso"
during his stay in Troy, N. Y, and was
operated upon for that disease, and as a
result she became partially deaf, and could
only hear with great difficulty. Her sight
was also much injured. The young lady
paid the quack, or doctor of special dis
eases, $45 of her hard earnings. When
will people learn wisdom and avoid these
travelling mountebanks, who call themselves
doctors. This Alfanso, by advertising and
assuming a new name every place he goes,
always leaves his sign after him. People
should learn by the sad experience of their
neighbors, to patronize their own family
physicians or some local physician and
avoid travelling specialists in medicine.

We publish, on the outside of THE GLOBE,
this morning, the quaint old ballad of
Little Red Riding Hood" as it was mar
rated to us in our childhood days We
have never seen it in print, and presume
that it will be new to most of our readers,
and, perhaps, pleasantly recalled by some
of the older ones. 1t was written out, at
our request, pleasant, elderly lady recit-
ing it slowly for that purpose. Even she
has no recollection of ever reading it, but
learned it, when quite young, from hearing
it repeated by others. Unless our Judg-
Inent is greatly warped by the memory of
former days, this quaint old ballad will
prove treat indeed.

Light begins to dawn in the east, and the
darkness which has so long obscured the
"high and mighty" Emperor of China be-
gins to break away. For the first time in
the history of Chinese diplomacy, the En-
peror, on the Goth of June, gave audience
to the American and other foreign minis
tiers. OF itself this audience amounts to
nothing, but it shows that another barrier
to free intercourse between China and the
rest of the world has commenced to give
away. 1t is but few years since foreign
ers were admitted to China at all. A foot

sentatives of other governments were after,
wards permitted to remain there, and now

THE COLUMBUS CONVENTION.

The throes, by which the new party was
ushered into being at Columbus, Ohio,
Wednesday, were mighty, but, from pres
ent appearances, the child there born is
sickly puny thing The time, evidently,
has not come for new party, which shall
assume q form and name out of chaotic ma
terisls, leap at once into prominence and
greatness, combine all elements and con-
test for the supremacy with an almost as
sured hope of success. If this convention
has any especial political significance at all,
it seem to US, rather as an indication of the
dividing up of all parties into smaller par
ties, having, professedly, the same object,
but each led--if such word can be used
at the present day-by different leader
We used the word lied" to convey the idea
of prominent individuals being in the front
rank of a movement and being considered
rs the exponent of their views. The per-
sonal following of public men is not as it
used to be, when every man of especial
prominence could rally around him large
number of the people, while these leaders,
in turn, paid homage, as it were, to one
bright particular star, rs in the days of
Clay, Webster, Calhoun, Wright, Benton
and others. While the day of personal fol-
lowing has passed-as was demonstrated,
beyond all cavil and doubt, in the last pre-
sidential campaign-yet individual states
men or politicians--we use the word in its
highest sense-will always be recognized
and considered as opponents of the prin-
ciples which they, in common with their
party, or the movement with which they
are connected, avow. Parties may and,
probably, will be formed without the aid
of these men, but they will always, sooner
or later, assume their place as the recog
nized opponents thereof.
This movement at Columbus seems to bt
somewhat of a mixed affair, and 1t is diff
cult TO tell who participated therein. II
would appear that the most pronounced
democrats sbstained from all participation
in its proceedings, and disavow all connec
ton Herewith. Senator Thurman, one o.
the sblest and best of democratic states
men, declares 1t was mistake. The Gin
cinnati Enquirer pronounces it weak ant
puny affair, ian insurrection among thu
qusrtermasters and contractors of the dem
ocratic party" whatever that may mean
but which we construe to mean, move
ment among democrats who desired office
and despaired of obtaining them otherwise

Large Fire IN Boston.

At half past three o'clock on Thursday
afternoon, fire broke out in the building
of the National Dock and Warehouse COM
pany in Lewis street, East Boston, which
was entirely consumed. 1t was large
brick building, $50 feet long by so feet
wide, and used entirely for storage pur-
poses, and was also bonded warehouse.
The second story and attic were filled with
consignments of jutc, hemp, gunny cloth
and gunny bags. The ground-foor and
basement were also nearly filled with a
large amount of sugar and saltpetre, all the
property of large number of owners in
Boston and New York. The building was
owned by the National Dock and Ware,
house company, and valued at $4,000,
fully insured 1t is estimated that there
was $4OO, 900 worth of property stored in
the building. The loss will be $500, 000
The insurance cannot be ascertained. Tho
fire was undoubtedly caused by spontaneous
combustion among the jute, gunny bags
and hemp.
