Castleton correspondent writes lis that
as everybody is nominating a candidate
for the next Governor Of Vermont. he
wants to make some nominations, and
he names Hon. John A. Page and Hon.
c. w. Willard, of Montpelier, and DIR.
George Nichols, of Northtield. and says
he knows IA few more. If list should
he made of all the men in Vermont who
are fit for Governor. it would comprise
a majority of the middle-aged men in
the State, with several of the younger
as well as the older ones. Why not
publish the check lists of the town for
the Convention to select from !-Rm-

Disturbance.

Tom. Ward and VIM. Fisher had q
sct-to of words in the street near Wards
block, the other evening. and after
twittimg each other of all the bad things
they could think or ever heard of, they
clinchcd, when some of the crowd which
had gatherd about pulled them apart
and took them away. The people who
heard the conversation think that if
there Is no law against using such vul-
gar and obscene language in the public
streets. the Legislature had better he
convened and have one made.

The MONTPELIER Murder.

We give elsewhere the particulars of
very sad affair at Montpelier on Fri
day. The telegraph reported the main
actor i'll this tragedy from st. Johns
bury. Albert Daniels WAS son of Lu-
ther Daniels who formerly lived in this
town. hui who now lives in Lyndon
willie. There we've three sons. Hiram.
Luther and Albert. and we think they
have all worked in the scale shops.
Luther has Just returned to California
after Il visit home. Albert Nas Il paint
eli hy trade. and he it was who WAS ON
the staging ut the Avenue House one
year ago. when it fell killing VIM. Hall
of West Concord. II will he remcm-
hercd that Daniels saved himself hv
catching on Il window cap. after falling
one story. While here he was called ii
peaceable and likely fellow. and the
only way to account for his last act is
on the ground of insanity. His body
WAS brought To Lyndonville on Satur-
day. and inferred at North Danville
sunday. where his father formerly
lived.
We have since learned that Daniels
mother died in an insane asH lum. and
that his grandfather on his fathers side
attempted to take his own life with a
knife. but was unsuccessful which will
go far Ia accoul for this tragedy.

Liquor Seizure. "A Nefarious Trick.

IA
The police went into Grccley's bill
Hard saloon. under the Avenue House.
Monday evening. and found two five
gallon kegs of whiSkcy. one partly full.
directed to ;. :. Bartlett. st. JohnSbury
Centre. When the police entered the
saloon. Greeley told them he had heard
they were coming. and that he had not
drop of liquor in his place. 1t did
not take the officers long to find the
kegs secrcted under the back stairs
which lead mp to the Avenue House.
We learn that Greeley was complained
of on Tuesday for selling liquor.
On further enquiry, we find what we
suspected. that the whiskey dealers
have been using names of good men to
further their ncfariouS business. Some
time ago two boxes of merchandise
came to st. Johnsbury Centre, directed
to Mr. Bartlett. and with bill of TWEEN
" odd dollars for collection. Mr.. But
Ter. station agent. notified Mr.. Bartlett
of the same. when he was told that it
WAS nothing that belonged 10 him and
nothing he knew anything about-that
there was some mistake about it. MIR.
Bartlett gave himself no more concern
about this matter until after these same
boxes were found in Greeley's saloon
Monday night, when he went to the
station at the Centre and found they
were not there. Probably Mr.. Butler,
station agent. can tell who took them
away: but as a certain doctor and
Greeley were seen coming down from
the Centre few nights ago with sim
liar packages in their wagon, most peo-
pie will not consider it necessary to en-
quire. The reader can get an idea OF
one way in which liquor is Struggled
into our town. There Was evident
bungling in this case between Greeley
aud the Boston seller. Ifthe goods had

Self Murder.

VIM. McLane of East Haven shot
himself on Sunday last, and although
alive Monday morning. his attending
physician gave no encouragement that
he could long survive. He was about
20 years old and his father lives at
Haverhill. \. ii. The circumstances of
this suicide are very singular. lie was
ut work for Alexander McLane ct East
Haven, and Sunday morning he start
ed with Geo. McLane, son of Alexan-
der, for the post office in Newark. At
ter going to the post office they visited
the Spring House. kept 10y Ladd. where
1t is supposed William took liquor On
their return home these Young men
were Joined by Noah Hudson. who had
a short hreech-loading rifle in his
hands. William asked to see the gun
and ii was handed him with the remark
that 1t was loaded. He replied that he
knew it, and that he had us soon die as
not. or words to that effect. Nothing
was thought of it at the time however.
and the three walked along in the road
until the report of rifle was heard.
Upon this Hudson and Geo. McLane
saw the weapon in VIM. McLauc's
hands. with the muzzle turned towards
his breast. With an oath he exclaimed
that he had shot himself The men
with him thought he WAS fonlng them.
until they saw his countenanc- change.
and he fell or laid down hv the road
side. On examination they found il as
he said: the ball had entered Just he
low the heart. and passing through his
of the right shoulder blade. \ physi-
elan WIS called from East Burke. as
soon as possible. He found severe
hemol1hagc. and gave no hope that he
could live many hours. but he was
living Monday morning.
The strange thing about it Is. that no
he had been drinking. this would not
seem of itself sufficient. \ rumur comes
from another source that he WAS cngag-
ed to he married that his gill had fits.
and that he deserted her: that a week
or two ago she drowned herself: and
that his shooting himself il the sequel
t" the affair. But probably the result
will show that it is another whiskev
murder, and nothing else.
