~ OF work laid out for them, and both

About 100 have already been introduced

Senate.
A "bomb-shell" was thrown into the
House the other day by Mr.. Buell. Of Mid
dletown, in the form of "A joint resolution
relating to the recent outrages In the South
ern states. Mr.. Smalley of Burlington
was particularly sensitive in regard to
them, as was Mr.. Gilman of Montpelier,
and proceeded to denounce the resolutions
as a thrust at the democratic party.
A bill has been introduced TO prevent the
imposition upon the community of medi-
cal "quacks." 1t provides for a board of
censors from whom every practitioner
must procure a certificate. A strict COM
piance with the law to be enforced by the
courts.
-Four Indians are at Montpelier TO secure

waga aud ST. Regis tribes, lying between
Lake Champlan aud the Green mountains,
which, they claim, were never sold TO the

quire into the necessity of altering the
present school laws so that the burden Of
taxation for support of schools may be
more equal and just between the large aud
village districts and the back school dis
trcts in towEs. Adopted.

I think very few will disagree with me,
that all necessary and suitable sidewalks
and crossings, as well as highways in our
village, should he made and maintained by
the proper public officers at the public ex-
pense. Good side walks, as well as good
roadways, should be promptly provided
throughout the village-the kind and quail
ity in each locality TO depend upon the pub
lie requirements of that locality. If this
cannot be done under our present system,
let the system be changed without delay.
If the fault is in the law, let the law be a
polished or properly amended but If, on
the other hand, the fault Is in the admins
tratlon of the law, a swift remedy is in the
hands of people. If our present author
tiles, whose integrity and honesty of pur.
pose do not question, misc)nstrue their
powers and duties, as think they do, they
have this for an excuse, that they are fol-
lowing the practice which has prevailed in
this town from earliest times. But, as l
said in the beginning, we have outgrown
the past, and improvements both in sub
stance and manner must keep pace with
the increase of population and business.
IT. in the administration of our town and
village affairs, we are governed by prece-
dents unsuited to our present condition and
wants, as seems beyond question to be the
case, we cannot be too energetic in seeking
out and applying the proper remedy. One
thing is certain-until we adopt and en-
force different system from that which
now prevails, we shall never enjoy the ben
eft and comforts of good sidewalks. IL.

DARING BANK RoBBERY.-The Souhegau
National Bank of Milford, N. H., was rob-
bed of about $780, 900 on Monday night, by
a gang desperadoes. The cashier was awak-
ened in the night, to find his room occu-
pied by six masked men, who gagged him,
put a rope around his neck, shut his wife,
four children aud servant in closets, drag
ged him to the bank and made him open
the vault, which they robbed of about $500
in currency and $4,000 in bonds. This
done, they led him back to his house, tied
him to the bed and left. The whole job
occupied less than an hour and everything
had been so arranged, even to the minutest
detail, that the plans of the robbers moved
like clock-work. The loss will not affect
the banks solvency.

The question as to whether President
Grant desires third term of Office is be-
ginning TO attract quite a serious amount
of attention. Secretaries Robson and
Relknap have both recently declared it to
be their opinion that the President wishes
nothing of the kind, but the subject never
theless affects the pending canvass in New
York, and the Times urgently asks that the
obstinate" man speak and set the matter
at rest. 1t seems TO us just possible that
with becoming retlcenoe and Retrospect,
the General doesn't mean TO refuse until he
IL asked.

". +. Lang, A. NJ, principal Of tbo
Brattleboro Academy, has issued his first
catalogue for that institution. 1t isa well
arranged and neatly printed pamphlet of
twelve pages, from the press Of Geo. Il.
Selleck, and exhibits the present condi.
ton of the school in a favorable light. Brat.
tleborO Academy received its rst charter
In 1901, and was re-chartered in 1921. For
many years it occupied leading position
among the educational institutions Of In.
State, gaining AN extensive patronage and
an enviable reputation. In 1860 it was
leased TO and became part Of "Glenwood
Ladies' Seminary" but in 1873, that lease
was surrendered, and in December last
the trustees opened a school for both sex.
es, under the direction and superniend-
ence OF its present enterprising principal.
The whole number of pupils during the
year is sixty four, nearly all Of whom are
now in attendance. Surely this is good
growth, the number of pupils during the
first term having been but TEN and the
preceptor, trustees, and friends OF educa-
ton may well take courage from the past.
and labor earnestly for the future Pro-
lessor Lang has opened a reading room for
the use of his pupils, aud occasional lee
lures on Anatomy, Physiology. the laws
