ACTUAL Loss OF LIFE.-Not long
after the terrific snow-storm which visit
ed Southwestern Minnesota, in the month
of January last, Governor Austin APP
pointed a Storm Commissioner to exam
inc the localities visited by the storm,
and report the CASUALTIES resulting from
1t, and the cases which require State aid.
This commissioner has just completed
the tour through thirteen counties, his
examination being carried on with great
difficulty, owing to the condition of the
roads. He reports twenty deaths, in all,
by freezing. This aggregate is very
much smaller than the figures given by
telegraph at the time; and though it
will doubtless be increased by reports of
other cases from quarters not visited, or
overlooked in the report, it is pleasant to
learn that the calamity, though very ter
rible, was not as great as the earlier
statement represented it.

vised some weeks ago by gentlemen who
presented it that If could not submit TO
terms which thought to be unjust, this
petition would be presented, in the most
obnoxious manner,-but / do not desire
to discuss this matter here. So far as the
trustees and managers are concerned,
we desire this hearing now. Our accounts
have always been open for inspection by
the officers appointed by this court, at
all times, and are supported by the prop
err vouchers. They have also been open
to inspection by the Vermont and Can
ada stockholders, and other security
holders, at any time. Every important
entered into by the trustees
and managers, has been with the approx
al of an advisory board appointed by
the court, and they have been sanction
ed by the Vermont and Canada directors
1t is due to us that we have
a full hearing on all these charges which
have been made against us. And for our
part we shall prefer that it take place to-
day."
A brief season OF argument followed,
with the assignment of the
hearing to a day in March.

MAIL RoBBER Charles
ellis, postmaster at Hillsboro, N. H.,
was arrested on Friday of last week,
charged with robbing the mail. Several
letters, some of them decoys, were found
upon him when arrested, he finally con-
fessed to have forged a receipt for reg
istered letter, and to having removed
stamps from letters and sold them. He
was man of good standing in Hillsboro,
had served in the army, is forty years of
age and has a wife and children upon
whom his disgrace falls very severely.

To DAIRYMEN.--Thet third report of
the Vermont Dairymen's Association
will be ready for delivery in a very short
time. We can spare of this and the pre-
ceding reports, 200 sets, and in order to
raise the funds to print the fourth with
out delay, we now offer to sell the 200
sets of four, forwarded by mail post free
at SO per set, which is less than the ac-
tual cost of printing them and much less
than the actual value of any one OF them
to any enterprising farmer or dairyman ;
and we appeal to you and all other
friends of the Association to take upon
yourselves the labor of selling few sets
among your friends and acquaintance,
and thus enable us to go on with the
good work. A few hours effort on the
part of those to whom this appeal is
made will enable us to put the report
Immediately to press, aud with due al
lowance for the unavoidable delays, we
can safely promise its distribution duling
the spring. If, on the other hand, we
are compelled to await legislative aid, it
will be full two ears before it can see
the light. o. S. BLISS, Secretary.

Vermont Central Railroad.

The opposition to the present manage
ment of the Vermont Central have made
a move. A petition was filed before
Judge Royce, chancellor, at St. Adams,
Wednesday, of last week, for the remov-
al of Governor Smith. w. c. Smith, B.
p. Cheney and Lawrence Barnes from the
trusteeship of the road. The petitioners
are Bath Savings Bank, g. X. Rich
ardson, Chas. L. Flint, M. B Carpenter,
and others, holding about S1S0.000 of
first mortgage bonds. The petition al
leges that these trustees failed to pay the
first mortgage coupons, last December,
although they had the money to do it, or
if they did not have the money on hand
they had improperly spent it; that Greg
DRY, Smith and Clerk are unsuitable
and improper persons for trustees and
managers, having been the owners of the
Montreal railroad and having taken
money from the Vermont Central and
applied it to that road that all the man
ayers have violated their obligations as
trustees by their unfavorable contracts
from the Vermont Central to support the
National car company, of which they
were stockholders that they knew they
we're impoverishing the railroad and
now confess it; that they issued stock to
the Vermont and Canada road, without
authority and with fraudulent intent, in
order to increase the rent to be paid to
it by the Vermont Central, and thus
satisfy pretended claim against the lat
ter which the Supreme Court had disal-
lowed that they procured lease of the
Ogdensburg railroad by corrupting its
attorney with bride of $4,000, etc.
At the same time,th hearing on the mo-
tion of MIR. Brooks, the president of the
Vermont and Canada railroad company,
for an order to compel the trustees and
receiver, of tae Vermont Central to pay

A NEW SELL.-A fine appearing
young lady arrived and put up at Yer
mont Hotel, few days ago, and soon at
tracted great attention from some ire
pressible youngsters, who were stopping
there. One strange youth who had ar
rived in town a few days before, even
went so far as to say that he would mar
ry her if she would have him and of
fered for substantial wager, to pop the
question and have the marriage ceremo-
ny performed right away. The wager
was accepted, and also the proposal of
marriage, made SO suddenly to her by
the young man, and the parson was call
ed in, who soon united the twain. The
sum waged was paid over to the happy
bridegroom, and he and his bride sat off
next day on their marriage tour. What
lends romance to the circumstance is the
fact that the young couple had already
been man and wife for year.

A Doc SToRY.-The Louisville Ledg-
err tells the following story of canine sa-
gacity A little black and tan terrier
belonging to Mr.. Newcomb had followed
a member of the family to the drug
store of Dr. S. B. Barnum, corner of
Fifth and York streets, and while on the
sidewalk great oyergrown cur jumped
upon it and broke one of its fore legs.
The howls of agony emitted by the poor
little fellow attracted the attention of DIR.
Barnum, and at his suggestion the dog
WAS taken into his store, and the doctor
proceeded to set the broken leg and
splinter and bandage it. The dog re-
sisted the operation with all his power,
and snapped and howled the whole time.
The dog was taken home, and after an
absence of four days returned to the
store of his own accord, walked up to
DIR. Barnum, wagging its tail and whin-
ing, and held out the broken leg for the
doctors inspection. An examination re-
vealed the fact that the bandage and
splinters had become disarranged, and
were evidently causing great pain. The
doctor rearranged the dressing, and the
dog hoped away. Every day since then
the dog comes regularly to the store and
holds out its leg to the doctor, as much
as to say, 'Look at that Doctor and see
how it is getting along" The examina-
ton over, the dog goes home. His leg is
nearly well, and it remains to be seen
whether, like many of the human race,
as soon as he is well he will forget the
physician who healed him.

A Doc THAT is WORTH SOMETHING.
"A. b. Newman, assistant light-keeper
at Mount Desert, is the owner of fine
Newfoundland dog, of whom we are told
the following anecdotes; Mr.. Newman's
little boy, nine years old, stayed away,
and was missing for about two hours.
The mother went out OF doors and called
to him, when the dog, in response, ran
from the shore with the boys wet cap in
his mouth, and signi6ed by his actions
that he desired her to follow him. The
mother, alarmed, calIed the father, who
was sleeping in the house, and they fol-
lowed the dog as quickly as possible.
Down by the shore, on rock, the little
boy was lying insensible, his clothes wet,
as if he had been dragged from the wa
ter. After long efforts, in which the dog
rendered all the assistance he could in
his mute way, the boy was rescued, and
afterward told his story. He was on the
beach gathering shells when large
wave came in and carried him off in the
undertow. The dog jumped in after him,
but the wave prevented him from reach
ing the boy for some minutes. He seiz.
ed him by the leg of his trousers, and
tried to drag him ashore but the cloth
tore in his teeth, and the boy said that
he had an indistinct recollection of the
dogs coming down below the surface for
him again, and that was the last thing
he was conscious Of 1t seems that the doc
had dragged the child up on the rock
out of reach of the waves, and had tried
to restore him. When he heard the
mothers call, he took the cap to inform
her, as we'll as he could, of the affair ,an6
hasten assistance.-Portland Press.
