BY HIS ExCELLENCY,
JULIUS CONVERSE, GOVERNOR.
prnrIa m "A ION,

No lesson of the past is clearer than that
nations have prospered in proportl0n as
they have been pure and v1rtuous. Nneh
vice and corruption have become preNa-
lent. enervation and decay appear among
the people, and paralysis fastens upon me
government. 1t is equally apparent Inal
0urity rests, for an enduring founuatlon,
upon religion. The fear of God Is tne De-
ginning of wisdom. The strongest lnc en-
fives to an active and useful life are feit
in the minds of those who believe IN an az
mighty all-wise and all-holy Goa, anu
who strive to do His will. Such peopIe,
too He will bless even as 1t IS written, IN
ALI our WAYS acknowledge Him, and lie
shall direct thy paths" The piouS custom
of orr fathers to recognize at this season
of the wear the God of Natures Providence
and Grace, by a day of prayer,'ls eminent
" worthy of perpetuation.
the eleventh day of April next, to be oo-
served by the people of this State as a gay
of fasting, humiliation and prayer. Anu
I do most earnestly request that lne peo-
pie will rest on that day from their usuai
fabors, assemble themselves together IN
their several places of worship, ana there
deyoutly acknowledge their dependence
upon Divine power ana grace. Let us
| confess our sins and implofe PARDON
| through our Lord Jesus Christ. Let US
seek His counsel and aid in all our affairs.
| Let us invoke His blessing upon orr laDors
| in the field, factory, office and store
| houae. Let us endeavor to learn how TO
| do Justly, to love mercy, and Walk num-
| bIy with God.
Given under nv hand and the seal of the
! State. this thirteenth day of March, In the
| wear of our Lord one thousand eight nun
| bred and seventy-three, and OF the lnue-
| pendence of the United States the ninety

who encouraged the men to hope on,
and assured them of bright prospects for
the future.
AT five O'Clock the party went by a
special train to New York. This closed
one of the most touching, yet interest
ing. occasions upon record, which the
generosity. and philanthropy of the
American public has yet evinced for sui
fering foreign humanity. The whole
affair abounded in serio-comic scenes
and incidents, and it will long live in
the memories of the kind, interested
hearts of the donors as well as among
the grateful beneficiaries.
The last Sunday of the Lenten season,
commonly known as Palm Sunday, was
observed, yesterday, at the church OF
the Immaculate Conception with all the
sOlemnity which marks the important
ceremonies of the Roman calendar.
At an early hour the immense church
was filled to oppression which, in con-
nection with the roll of the music and
the volume of the chant echoing among
the arches, rendered the scene on of
great interest. The ceremony of bless
ing and distributing the palm was per-
formed by the officiating priest and a
procession of acolytes, while in less than
quarter of an hour each member of
the great concOurse was the possessOr
of branch of the sacred emblem.
Solemn high mass was began at eleven
o'clock with all its pOmp of sight and
sound. The music was of the grandest
order, with its component parts of organ
and choir. The touching narrative of
the Passion, as related by st. Matthew,
was sung by three chanters, assisted by
a very efficient chorus of male voices.
| The offices of the Ienebr9, Good Friday
and Easter render, the present week,
one of conspicuous interest at the Ro-
man Catholic churches.
The rage, just at present, in dramatic
circles, is the appearance of Mile. Annie
with her French Opera troupe. The
music and stamp of acting in which they
| indulge is one extra test of the degener-
acy of the stage. The plots of the en-
/ tire repertoire of operas abound in u-
/ dicrous and viYacious incidents, while
each and all are travesties upon society.
The theatre is each night crowded to re-
pletion, and every excess in acting is
applauded so deafeningly that decency
long since beat a hasty retreat, while
even ordinary vulgarity stands astonished
at her vOtaries. Too little cannot be
said of the vocal abilities of the troupe.
Thus runs the world away
NIDEO.

THE COLLAPSE OF THE NERVES.
There is nothing more disheartening
than nervous debility. In extreme cases
of this class the sufferers do not care
whether they live or die. 4 feeling of
hopelessness comes over them, and in some
instances where the threatening symp-
temps are not met by prompt and proper
nervous debility is not dangerous COM
plant if wisely dealt with. A indicated
stlmulant is the remedy needed. and in
Hostetter's stomach Bitters this specific
for the complaint is presented ia its pur-
est and most potent form. Nervous disease
isusually complicated with other ailments.
1t frequently involves biliousness. consti-
patton, irregularities of the bowels, indi-
gestion, and great mental depression. In
the spring of the year, owing to the effect
of chilling fogs, searching winds and other
atmospheric phenomena, upon the exter-
nal nerves, persons who are subject TO ner-
VopS affections often suffer acute distress.
both of body and mind, from this cause.
1t Is, therefore, advisable for all who are
liable to these troubles, and to the other
bodily ills above mentioned, which so fire.
quently accompany them, commence the
use of Hostetter's BitteIs early in the sea-
son. The severe nervous and bilious at
taoks, with which they might otherwise
be visited, can by this means be certainly
avoided. As a nervine, gentle aperient
and anti-bllious medicine. the Bftters have
no equal.

ronark to make. We believe in graded
schools. We believe they afford the
best possible system for the education of
our children. We do not think-in fact
we know from actual statistics, SO far
as Rutland is concerned-that the ex-
pense of sustaining such schools requires
no larger tax than was required to sup
port schools under the old district sys-
tenn. In reference to these schools,
however, the laws are as badly mixed
up as in other respects. Some graded
schools are formed under, what may be
termed, the general school law of
the State; that is, there is law intend
ed to allow, or provide for, the forma-
ton of g graded schools " in every town
in the State, and, perhaps, in parts of
towns and villages. Others are estab-
lished under special acts of incorpora-
ton. They are corporations, as much
as are banks or railroad companies.
General laws may or may not apply to
them. This will depend upon the par
ticular language of their several char
tiers. 1t may be too late to remedy this,
but we think not We have not made
an examination of the several charters,
establishing central or graded school
districts, but we presume that the Leg
islature reserved the right, for them,
selves and their successors, to alter
amend or repeal the charters as the pub
lie good might require. This is the
usual course. There is or should bt
some approved, regular and uniform
| system for their establishment, continu
ance, support and government. /
ought not to be necessary at every
| school meeting to look over a dozen o.
| more volumes to ascertain what laws
are to govern the action of the voters
/ A man, if he understands the schoo
| laws in one town or district, should fee
the assurance, if he should chance t.
move into another town or district, tina
he knows the law there. One law nov
governs one town or district, and an
other law may control the neighbOrin!
town or district One construction of
law prevails in one town, while anothe
town acts upon an entirely differen
construction. Let us have system ant
uniformity both in the laws and thei
construction. There is another poin
which was brought out at the sChOo
meeting, Tuesday, to which we will re
fer. Prior to 1868, the law require
that a person to be voter in schoc
meetings, in addition to other qualifica
tions, must be liable to pay tax there
in. This was right and just. No ma
should be allowed to vote upon the queS
ton of raising a tax unless he was, also
liable to pay his due proportion thereof
This is too clear for argument. TIL
Legislature, however, in their wisdom
in 1868, saw fit to alter this, and to a
low any resident of the district, wh
had grand list in the town, to vote q
school meetings. He may pay no tax
and be liable to pay no tax, in the di;
trict, yet he may vote and, perhaps, dc
eide what kind of schools district ma
have, how much tax shall be assessed,
any, etc. We need not enlarge on thi,
Any one of ordinary comprehension ca
see the wrong. 1t is part of the miN
ture and muddle of our school syster
and school laws. Again we say, let L
have a system and uniformity.

Our Boston Letter.
THE "ATLANTIC" sURvIvORs-PALM SUN
DAY-FRENCH OPERA.
BOsToN, April 7. 1877,

Boston, April Z, 1878.
The unfortunate survivors CT the re-
cent marine tragedy have been the lions
of the week, and the citizens Of Boston
have been INDUCED in an opportunity
of displaying their generosity and of
feasting their curiosity upon the tales
and variations of the terrors and suffer
ing of the late disaster from the lips of
the unhappy participants themselves.
After they had been brought together at
Halifax, and well cared for, they started
at nine o'clock on Thursday night for
Portland, en- route for Boston. At this
city they were each presented with a
through ticket to New York and loaf
of bread. There were about three hun
twenty-five steerage and few cabin
passengers. Between six and seven
o'clock on Saturday morning there was
a large crowd at the Eastern depot
awaiting the arrival of the train from
Portland. At ten minutes of seven the
bell sounded aud the train Slowly en-
tered the station. So great was the rush
of the bystanders that squad of fifty
policemen was called into requisition
The cabin passengers were Immediately
driven to the fremont House, while
those of the Storage grade of society
were joined in a column, fOur-a-breast,
and marched to Faneuil Hall. Here
every preparation had been made for
their reception at the expense of the
White Star Line. Many nationalities
were represented, English, Irish, Scotch,
German, Swedish, Danish, and others.
After a substantial breakfast, they were
allowed their leisure. They were most
ly young men, muscular and hardy
looking, as, of course, those who sue
ceeded in saving themselves were,
physically, the very best of the ships
human freight Most Of them are la
borers, without any definite plans for the
future, while many are skilled artisans.
During the morning a relief committee
met and was organized. The White
Star Line paid all expenses of food and
travel, SO that all done by the committee
would be extra benefit to the sufferers
1t was decided that the clothing of the
men, which was Of rather nondescript
order, should be the first care This was
arranged by heavy draught upon the
stores OF the Chardon street bureau, the
same being paid for by subscription
Finally all were furnished with a very
satisfactory outfit. During the dav $500
dollars were raised as relief fund. many
of the men received offers of employ
ment, and some twenty decided to ac-
cept and remain. In the hall, the only
child who was saved was little fellow
of eleven or twelve years and attracted
universal attention. He employed him
self by writing bis autograph upon Slips
Of paper, and upon distributing them re-
ceived money to the amount of fifty dol
lars. He is to be educated by the owners
of the Inflated Atlantic and, when of
age, will enter their employment. After
dinner a certain Mr.. Pym, of England,
succeeded in securing the attention of
the men, and then, amid great applause,
offered most graceful and apropos re-
solution of thanks and gratitude. This
was responded TO by Hon. A. III. Rice,
