hope to receive a renewal of patronage from all

Me-. CoyILLE OF DANGuRY.-Since the
unfortunate accident to Mr. Covile while
on the roof counting the shingles he has
been obliged to keep pretty close to the
house. Last Wednesday he went out
in the yard for the frs. time, and on
Friday Mrs. Coville got him an easy
chair, which proved great comfort to
him. 1t is one of those chairs that can
be moved by the occupant, to form almost
any position, by means of ratchets. MIR.
Coville was very much pleased with this
new contrivance, and the first afternoon
did nothing but sit in it and work it iu
all ways. He said such chair as that
did more good in this world than hun
dred sermons. He had it in bis room, the
front bedroom upstairs. and there he
would sit and look out Of the window,
and enjoy himself as much as man can
whose legs have been ventilated with
shot. Monday afternoon he got in the
chair as usual. Mrs Covile was out in
the backyard hanging up clothes, and the
son was across the street drawing lath
along a picket fence. Sitting down he
grasped the sides of the chair with both
hands to settle it back. when the whole
thing gave away. and Mr.. Coville came
violently to the floor.
For an instant the unfortunate gentle
man was benumbed by the suddenness OF
the shock. but the next he was aroused by
an acute pain in each arm, and the great
drops of sweat oozed from his forehe ad
when he found that the little finger o.
each hand had caught in the ratchets
and was as firmly held as it in a vice
There he lay on his back with the end o.
3 round sticking in his side. and bofl
hands perfectly powerless. The leas
move of his body aggravated the pail
which was chasing up his arms. H.
screamed for help. but Mrs. Coville wa
in the backyard telling Mrs. Coney. mex
door. that she didn't know what Covill
would do without the chair. and SO sh,
didn't hear him. He pounded the foo

Vermont State Police,
EVERETT, Mass, Dec, 1877

DEAR REGISTER Il would like to
have the eyes of your readers famiiarized
with the words that head this letter.
They are suggested by the following edi'
torial, which | cut from the Daily Ne,cs
of this morning, paper of which the
weekly edition ought to be more familiar
to your best readers than it is. The arti-
Gle is as follows:
LIQUOR TRIAIs-Bristol, Vt, has had
a serious trial in the shape of liquor tri.
ais. 1t was trial of strength too on
one side we're the facts and an earnest
and honest States Attorney, Mr. Lucia |;
on the other, packed jury, perjured
witnesses, fifteen or twenty rowdies with
,,ev tin horns, and rum. OF course the
last side won, and the victors followed
Mr.. and Mrs. Lucia from the trial room
to the hotel, footing with all their might
The insults they heaped on him in court
are less tangible.
Runs victories are always dearly
bought. Certain citizens Of Bristol, if
they ever consent to appear on witness
stand again, may have an unpleasant
questioner there. And the argument
that it is the Prohibitory Law that caus'
es perjury and malversation in office, and
ought therefore to be repealed. will make
but few converts among decent men.
Bristol will yet vindicate her honor.
What she needs is good State Police.
Prohibitionists sometimes have barns /;
Liberals who buy tin horns to trumpet
their own shame. are none too good tc
buy matches to revenge themselves. The
State Police have no barns within their
reach.
No state that makes trial oi good
state police will ever give it up. These
professional cons,ables bear the same re.
lation to the ordinary town officers as
trained surgeons do to the ordinary help
that comes in when an accident happens.
They are specalists,that give their whole
time to work that requires the oest OF
skill. People often dare not complain
Of well known esil-doers responsible

law in force Often the policeman is the
only witness. AT musters, shows, COM
mcncements aud the like, he is always
around. If any of the expert pickpock-
cts or burglars from New York or Bos.
ton are on hand he knows them at a
glance.
Now here in Massachusetts no man
wishes the state police abolished for any
other reason than that they break up es.
Establishments for gambling, liquor selling
and ill-fame. And many who are op.
posed to prohibition tolerate the police
because it is otherwise so useful. But
it is fact that this agency keeps Ever.
cit free from such nuisances, and nc
other means would do it, as l verify be.
lieve. And | think the same is true oi
every place in this State except cities
larger than any in Vermont.

A GL1MpsE INTO THAT CAuous-In t

A GLIMpsE INTO THAT CAucus.-In the
caucus, it appears. Senator Anthony,
son Of Joseph, presided, and Senator
Conkliug nominated for president pro TEN
Senator Carpenter of Wisconsin This
was the signal for action. Zach Chand.
Ter, who is political neighbor of Mr..
Carpenter, arose, and had good deal to
say about Webster, Clay, johnson and
other eminent statesmen VINO lived in
Washington before the board of works
was Known. Mr.. Carpenter had been
abused by the newspapers and mean
things bad beeu priated about him. For
that reason he knew that all that was
alleged was false. The only way for a
man to get distinction, nowadays, WAS to
be abused, and be only wished he could
get some 6rst.class paper, with big
circulation, to abuse him, every day.
He seconded Mr.. Conkling's motion, and
hoped Mr.. Carpenter would be confirmed
without dissenting vote. What Mr..
Carpenter did was no ones business, and
it did not become digni6ed senators to
take notice of attacks on mans charac.
ter. He knew shameful storie, we're told
about former presidents, but no one
thought the less Of them in discharging
their official duties. There vas a great
difference, he insisted, in what a man did
as a citizen and as a senator. Senator
Howe Of Wisconsin defended his col
league, and had satisfied himself the
allegations against Senator Carpenter
we're not to be believed. A canvass o.
the caucus discovered the fact that the
members were divided into two classes
those who believed Mr.. Carpenter wa
innocent and those who did not car,
whether he was or not. SO. without evel
the formality Of ballot, Senator Car
renter was chosen.-Herald's Washing
