\ LEGAL PRINCIPLE SETTLED.-At a
recent session of the Supreme Court of
the State of Maine. it was decided
touching vote of the town of Jay to
aid a manufacturing enterprise, that the
Legislature cannot authorize towns to
unanimously held that towns may aid
railroads. They say that railroads are
improved public ways. and railroad
corporations quasi public corporations,
while manufacturing companies are
private corporations to carry on private
business. This decision settles the
right of towns to aid railroads, and
ovcrthrowS the policy of towns aiding
manufacturing enterprises
The Legislature of Vermont several
Years ago enacted il law to aid manu-
featuring enterprises. hy requiring the
Listers of the towns in the State to
omit from listing for taxation, for the
term of five Years. all new expenditures
for manufacturing purposes. where such
expenditure exceeded one thousand dol
lars. While some have doubted the
cxpedicncy of this law. others have no
doubt questioned its legality. Our con
stitution requires equality III the ASSESS
men of taxes upon the citizens of the
State.
. The burning of the first Congre-
gationalist church, i'll Chicago, the last
of last week, is il circumstance in which
many of our readers feel IL deep inter
est. The pastor Mr.. Goodwin-once
resided here. and took from the many
fair daughters of our county. one for IL
wife. The house cost SI7O.OO0. and
was insured for S9O.OOO. Cause of the
fire Il defective tluc.
= The recent thaw caused so much
of Il rise of the streams in Connecticut
and the middle States, that bridges
were carried Oft, railroads washed. with
other damage. Pennsylvania seems to
have suffered more than most other
sections of the country. though New
York did not escape without extensive
damage.

.g In our last issue we gave the full
story, 81 far as it WAS then published. OF
the elopcment ofticorgr ShcrhuIn. with
IA young girl from one of the respectful
BILE families at Fi>hcrvillc. y. H. We
did this for IL special reason and that
was, that parents and daughters should
bc warned that associations with i'm
pure, and otherwise immoral mcn.;irc to
he Materially avoided. The parents
of the Young girl in this case had no
knowledge of the acquaintance. 1t had
been clandcStincly maturcd. The girl
had kept the correspondence Il secret.
Herein the sacrifice began. She WIS
not true To her mother. otherwise she
would have acquainted her with the
first act in the correspondence. But
she had been instructed. doubtless. hV
the ScoundIcl ShtIburn To not do this
1t would have thwartcd his wicked de
signs, but the girl would have been
saved. There l. Il practical lesson to
tim of the dcccitiu and lilain"u> >hcr-

Young lady should carry on Il CORES

parents No one will. There should

ents and children. that there would Ice
no desire to do so. No true and honor
able OF true Young man would desire it
to he otherwise. The fact that one
should desire it would hc sufficient
and just reason, for liScarding all and
every advance on his part.
We had seen photographs of Shcr-
burn and his victim some days before
their place of concealmcut WAS reveal
ed. 1t WAS understood that the villain
had relatives III this section of Vermont.
and the photographs were sent to per
