Hradbnry's Mistake.

In Philadelphia there are whole blocks
OF houses exactly alike, and sometimes
there is such quantity of them in a square
that man who lives near the middle has
to begin counting at the corner in order to
ascertain which Is his house. Mr.. Brad
barry a few nights ago came home late and
as he was thinking of something else he
forgot to count. When about two doors
from home he ran up the front steps of Mr..
Petty's residence with n conviction that it
was his own. His dead,atch key opened
the door readily, and Bradbury cropping
in the dark for the hat rack knocked
against it and upset it. Mr.. Petty, was up
stairs just about to go to bed. When he
heard the noise he went to the head of the
staircase and listened. He discovered that
there was man in the hall below and he
knew at once 1t was a burglar. So went
back to his room and got his revolver.
Then he shut his eyes and fired at random.
The noise walked Mrs. Petty, and she be-
gan to scream violently. Then Bradbury
felt certain that there was Il band of rob
bers upstairs engaged in butchering Mrs.
Bradbury, and the children. AS he started
to creep softly up the staircase to recon-
nitre Petty began to steal quietly down
the staircase to look after the burglar he
Killed, They met on the first landing
and although both were terribly frightened
they grappled, for both knew it would be
a struggle to the death. After fighting
desperately the combalants rolled down
the stairs to the floor beneath, while Mrs.
Petty sprang the rattle for a policeman.
just as Petty got the upper hand of Brad
bury and was mu,llating his nose with his
fist, the police burst the front door open
and struck light. Then an explanation
ensued, and Bradbury went home You
have perhaps seen a prize eggplant at an
agricultural fair. Well, Bradbury's nose
resembled that in size and color and shape,
and now he not only counts from the cor
Ler when he come home, but he has the
front of his house painted white, with a
locomotive headlight over the front door,

is, certainly, little remarkable that
Mr.. Willard should just at this particular
season Of the year, while most of his col
leagues are seeking rest and repose, take
such an extensive tour through Rutland,
Bennington, Addison and Washington
counties, look so carefully after the post
offices, visit certain men whose names, 1t is
said, he there obtains, especially when his
home organ, the Montpelier Freeman says
he is above such things. Above such things
is he We venture to say, and we know
somewhat whereof we affirm, that more
hard work, more letter writing, more going
from town to town, more visiting of this,

more button holing has never been
done in Vermont, the whole state
put together, than has been done as
is now being done in Mr.. Wizards
behalf Every friend that he can rake and
scrape, who is supposed to have any in
huencc, is at work night and day. Charles
W Willard, himself, who sis above such
things" has either had things brought up
to him or he has descended from the lofty
plane on which the Freeman placed him.
"Abovc such things" is he? Was ever a

JEFFERSON CURRENT Torros
who is n Republicans .

Editor Rutland Globe AS an evidence
OF the narrow line that divides the honest
republican and the honest democrat of the
presentd In their political entments on all
questions of national interest, we need only
to look at the professions of faith" of the
two parties-and to notice the difficulty
many of the shining lights of either party
find in giving person his proper political
position. A leader in the democratic ranks
but few evenings since announces that a
man opposed to the administration is "a
sort of a Democrat and this perhaps may
he so-as the speaker understands democ-
racy and certainly he is more consistent
than the HeraN, which pertinacously
holds that no man can be true republican
unless he sustains all the measures of the
party, all the recommendations of the
Presidential the acts of Congress-votc
for all the nominees of conventions,
and, in fact, Z" goes il blind, 3"
as directed by party leaders.
This is precisely ;he political gospel as dis
pensed at Tammany in the palmy days Of
locofocoism, when the dogma was pro-
claimed that the "spos of office" was the
legitimate 'wages of the victors." And
these were comforting doctrines to the
Tweeds and Murphys and Lecls of those
days till sort of professionalism arose in the
church -'lIunkers" and "Barnburncrs"
contcndng for the asccndancy- when the
"Sceprc departed from the house of
Judca' and poor Tammany was left to
mourn in sackcloth and ashes.
Now we hold that he is not the best tyne
of II republican who in this day adheres to
these old time tenets of a decayed party,
whose doctrines and practices had become
stencil in The nostrls of ali right thinking
men, and who think that TO dissent from
party measure. or to oppose an adminstra-
ton recommendation IS vital sin not to
he forgiven or forgotten. In the days Of
the old locofoco party, as We have said.
this rule was for n time adhered toand car
ried ont, hat al the present time the condi-
ton of the country, the situation of parties
and the temper OF the people render it alike
impolitir and obnoxious. ~

harmony seems to prevail about the entire
establishment, not only among those who
compose the firm, but among those employ
cd by them, many of whom have worked
for Messrs. Gray 81 Sons since they first
fairly set out in the business. The fame of
these machines is already world wide, and
although they have frequently come in con-
tact with the Wheeler & Merrick machines
of Albany and the Westinghouse of Sche-
nectady, they have always borne off the
palm, thus plainly showing the superiority
of these machines over all others, as have
the celebrated organs of Estcy & Co., and
with them adding fresh fame and lustre to
the Green Mountain state. Theyhavc re-
ceived unsolicited testimonials enough to
fill large volume, and since their recent
improvements these machines are made as
nearly perfect as they can be. The plat
forms run upon friction rollers, on cast
steel rods, so that the friction is a mere tri-
file, thereby securing and applying the
whole power of the horse to the work to
be done, making them the lghtest and best
running machines in the market. The de-
mand for them from the west is continually
increasing, and even from Australia appll-
cations and letters in regard TO these ma
chimes are frequently received, and the day
cannot be far distant when the Gray hers
power will be as favorably known even
there as it is in the United States, and it
should he matter of pride TO us that Yer
mont has produced machines of their skill
and ingenuity, who have originated and
perfected the best machines of that class
in the world, which is cmphaticaly a
triumph for Vermont perseverance and
business management.

VISITING POSTOFEICES.

names of all the officers in the employ of
the general government. We have care

such man, and very good man he has
been too, but there are others just as good

detailed record of the proceedings of the
first session of the forty-ihird Congress,

book, but we have a positive recollection
upon the subject. No complaint was
made to Congress relative to the condition
OF the postoflices, or the character of the
several postmasters, in the FIRST congress
siOnal district of Vermont, neither was a
committee appointed to investigate the
same or interview the pOstmasters. More
over, if there is any such COM

certain that Charles w. Willard
would not have beef appointed "A member

the interview is prepared for We have
too much faith in the majority of
