Last Friday was st. Valentines Day, and great
many newspapers contained the regulation articles
upon that interesting and tender anniversary. For
the thousandth time il was told how st. Valentino
was Bishop of Rome A. d. 27O; how he was famous
formarrying people and how the custom Of choosing
mates on his birthday thus originated 1t has also
been stated again that the custom derived from an
idea that doves pair the 18th. Moreover, 1t has
been stated that the holiday is derived from tha
Roman Lupercalia for which see Anthon's Classical
Dictionary. Having been in the habit of meeting
with these little bits of information on the 14th OF
February since the days Of our bOyhOod. we must
affirm that they have at least ceased to be thrilling.
Voters in Massachusetts, must still be able to read
and write the Legislature of that State having re-
fused to initiate the repeal of the constitutional
provision requiring Of them these qualifications.
We have no doubt that sometimes men as intelli-
gent as many voters may be disfranchised by this
provision but on the other hand man who wants
to vote very much and is disabled by his ignorance,
may easily acquire reading and writing enough to
satisfy the law and the incentive to do this surely
exercises a wholesome influence. The rational man
who isn't willing to learn to read the Constitution
under which he votes and the laws to be made by
the legislators for whom be votes, is not valuable
addition to the voting population.

Many persons recommend Sugar Corn,
Stowel1's Evergreen, Dutton, and 9th
er varieties, as containing more sac
charine matter than the ordinary field
corn, but on this point we cannot
knowingly speak of our own expert
ence. The ordinary Western mixed
corn produces an abundance of stalks,
which grow tall and furnish vast
quantity of forage for use, both green
and dried. Sow in drills about d feet
apart and use about 8 bushels of seed
to- the acre. Cat when the pollen
drops plentifully from the tassels.

The lecture tonight, What shall we
do with our daughters?" said to be the
most popular lyceum effort of that re-
markable and scholarly woman, Mrs.
Mary a. Liyermore, should attract one of
Rutland's best audiences.
Possessed of unusual power of mind and
body, this lady has won her way to an
ahlal'le position among the most popu-
lar and eloquent lecturers of the country +;
her lectures possess the charm of elegant
dlctlon, the satisfying beauty of finished
rhetorical periods, and the quality of sound
sense, and arm everywhere received with
the most ilaltcring evidences of favor and
satisfaction.
A writer in a late number of the Chris
tim UnioR, thus notices Mrs. Liyermore's
appearance at the Woman's Congress re-
Gently in session in New York 'Mrs.
Livermore presided, and ruled tie scene
with her eagle glance, and quick, impera-
tive mode of speech. Every difficulty in
her path was surmounted by sheer force of
genius. Her little impromptu addresses
were the perfection of all such efforts.
When thought occurred to her she rose
and gave it forth with such unequalled elo-
quence, wit and pathos, that the audience
was in her hand like clay in the hands of
the potter"

The SslIntre-SOus.-

The amateur dramatic association. whose
temporary organization was mentioned last
week, met at the Bates House parors last
evening, to further perfect the organiza-
ton and make arrangements for the cam
paign this season. The president, Col. W.
IT, Veazey, was in the chair. A good
understanding was arrived at during the
meeting, as to the objects of the club and
regarding the steps to be taken in the fu-
ture. series of resolutions were adopted
for its guidance, providing, among other
lhihgs meeting of the club once in two
weeks, limiting the membership of the
same to the number of fifty, and naming
the same the "Eatre-Nous." An executive
committee was appointed consisting of
Messrs. Il. a. Morse, David Tolhurst and
G. ID. Millington. Forty names are now
upon the roll, ten more to be added Inv Il
separate vote Of the Club at any regular
meeting. Mr.. Cramton has kindly fur
nlshed the Club the use of the hall at the
BardWell House, and a special meeting
Will be held there on Monday evening next.
The next regular meeting will be held on
the evening of Wednesday, the 26th inst,
at some place to be designated by the ex-
ecutlve committee.
IL was proposed that the proceeds of the
amusements to be given by the club, be
devoted to the securing of public library
Tor the town, which seemed to meet with
favor from those present This is certain
~ very desirable object to be gained and
ought to enlist the hearty cooperation of
our citizens during tic winter.
After the meeting dissolved the ladies
and gentlemen present were invited to the
large dining hall where music was furnish
ed and very enjoyable hour or two of
dancing was INDUCED in much to the plea
sure Of all present.
Should these meetings continue as they
have begun they will soon come to be the
most recherche affairs of the season.

New York, Noy. 10.
\ private letter dated Havana, Nov. 9th.
says An official telegram was yesterday
received at the Palace from Puerto Prin-
cipe of an engagement between the Span
ish force and a column Of insurgents under
the command of Sanguil in which the ill.,
surgents were severely beaten, losing twen-
ty killed and eighty taken prisoners. The
Spanish commander caused all the prison.
ers to be shot on the field of battle.
The governor of Puerto Principe on
hearing of it took the command away from
the Spanish commander and arrested tele-
graphing the event to Captain Groat. The
latter Immediately telegraphed to Puerto
Principe causing the commander to be re-
instated and ordering the governor to Hav-
ana. 1t is thought here that the governor
feels rude sympathy towards the insur-
gents throug' the influence of his wife
who is an aunt of the late Agrlmote.

FIRE AND Loss OF LIFE AT MoYRroN. -
On Monkton Ridge about 7 o'clock in the
evening of Nov. 8, the house occupied by
widow Mitchell Blair, a lady about sixty
years of age, was consumed by fire. All
attempts to rescue Mrs. BLAIR from the
flames were in vain, and she was found
with her body horribly burned. She had
occupied the house alone since the death
of her husband, preferring to be supported
there by the town rather than 20 else
where. They had just completed a more
comfortable residence for her, mach against
her wishes. There are conflicting opn-
ions in regard to the origin of The fire,
Some think it was intentional on her part,
others that it was an accidental explosion
OF IA lamp or something of the kind.

CRIs AND LENA.--From the Columbus,
Ohio, Dispatch we extract the following in
relation to "Chris and Lena" which will
be rendered at the Town Hall, next Tnes-
dav and Wednesday evenings, November
18th and 10Th
Messrs. Baker and Farron appeared at
the Atheneum last evening in the new Ger
man drama of ''Chris and Lena" From
the moment they made their appearance
on the stage they were favOrites, as was
shown by the enthusiasm with which they
were greeted. Their songs were demand
ed again and again, and they willingly re-
sponded. As representatives of German
character we freely pronounce Messrs. Ba-
ker and Farron the best we have seen.
Mr.. Baker assumes the part of Chris a iol-
ly, good natured Dutchman, with wooden
shoes, etc, while Farron plays Lena, the
charming Dutch Frauliae, and looks and
acts the female to perfection. Their songs
are artistic in their execution, and pleased
the large audience last evening more than
anything we have recently seen. In the
third act Mr.. Farron appears as an Irish
man, and so complete was the disguise that
scarcely any one in the audience recognized
him. Chris and Lena" has made as great
hit here in Columbus as it did in other
cities where it has been produced, and we
predict for the Athcneum a week Of
crowded houses. The play is eXcellently
mounted in regard to stage appointments,
and all the parts are well sustained by the
company through the piece.

New YORK, Nov.

New YORK, Nov. 10.
The Tammany hall committee sat this
evening again to investigate the late al
legged election frauds Simon Stern testi-
fled that he heard three men on the eve of
election arrange to repeat and saw one of
them repeat next day. He challenged
them and the INSPECTORS refused his oath.
A number of witnesses testified to the in
spectors tearing up or changing tickets,
also that the inspectors and police had in
undated naturalzed citizens. Two in
spectors swore that in one of the election
districts they counted 1875 tickets for
Charles Reilly and 1903 for James Ryan.
They subsequently saw returns altered at
the police precinct to 176 for Reilly,
Other evidence was taken bearing very
hardly on police commissioner Charlck
