The story that Garabaldi vas in want
and restitution, and forced to teach the
Itslian language at q franc lesson, proves
like other stories of the same kind in regard
to this eminent man, to be M utter fiction.
To correspondent who recently visited
Garabaldi, he said, referring to the report,
that 1t had annoyed him somewhat "on
account of my sons, who occupy honor
able and lucrative positions, and who re-
gard it as reproach to them that ii
should ever be reported that their poor,
s. old father was compelled to teach the
=" language for living at franc lesson.

ApKEDICTION FULFILLED.

Perhaps the most dramatic sensation &C.
curing the last session of congress was the
appearance on the floor of Hon. j. Amber
Smith, the republican representative of the
third congressional district of Virginia, to
confirm charge brought by democratic
member of the house against James ii.
Plat, chairman of the committee on pub
Tic buildings, that there was ring in the
contract for supplying granite for the
building of the magnificent new cdifice for
the state department. Al that time Mr..
Plat became red with Indignation, but
could make no reply, and the finale of the
affair was that Secretary Fish cancelled the
contract. There was much bitterness OF
feeling over the matter, and it was predict
ed that Mr.. Smith, who is n young man Of
outspoken honesty, would have trouble in
obtaining his nomination again, as the de-
feated ring would be sure to take revenge.
The prediction seems to have been fulfilled.
The dssenslon has resulted in the nomina-
ton of two candidates, one being Mr..
Smith and the other Rush Burgess, collector
of United States internal revenue. The
contest is said to be bitter and neither will
withdraw. Plat Is known to many of ON
readers

No changes are proposed in the number

No changes are proposed in the number
of judges. 1t simply establishes supreme
court with three judges-who are not to
travel circuit to hold county courts. 1t
establishes four judicial districts, with q
circuit judge for circuit for each district,
composed of three or four counties. This
provision may make the labors of the Cir
cult judges in holding county court more
onerous than now, but they are relieved
from sitting in the supreme court. The
proposed change is worthy of discussion,
both by the legislature. the profession and
the people, and If 1t can be adopted with a
great saving to the state, let us give the
system trial, as 1t has worked well else
where, 30 1t may be desirable change for
Vermont to adopt.
Let this measure be carefully canvassed,
calmly discussed, and have fair hearing
before the legislative jury, whether II is

Andrew johnson, the great impeached,

the New York Sun that General Grant

'B'hcinte Rev. warren Skinner

Brief record of the recent death and
burial of the above named individual has
already appeared in the columns of The
GLOBE, also the fact that his funeral was
very generally attended, both By the ma
sonic fraternity of which he was an hon
orcd member, and the public at large 1t
is doubtful If the fraternity" have been
more largely represented on like occasion
in this vicinity for a great length of time,
perhaps never. Large delegations were
present from the lodges of Ludlow, Ches-
Ter and Springfield, besides that of LaFay-
etc. Il; Cavendish, TO which he belonged.
He was master of the lodge in Cavendish
at one time, if we are correctly informed,
some fifteen years. and was an honored
past. master at the time of his death.
He always took Il deep interest in The
welfare OF the institution both at home
and abroad, and 1t is said that he had few
equals as a presiding officer 1t seemed
fitting and proper that his masonic brethren
should lend their presence rs they did at
the last and final rites of burial.
Having been resident of the town first
and last something like half century, and
filling public position all or nearly all the
time, it could bat he that he had formed
very extensive acquaintance; also strong
and lasting friendships, more especially
with those who we've his early supporters

The sermon on the occasion was by Rev

THE PROPOSED REN0DELISG
Or THE COUNTS.

We publish in our Montpelier core.
spondence this morning the full text OF the
bill introduced into the house by Mr. Henry
of Chester, tor remOdcling the supreme
and county courts. Ii proposes radical
changes which at first thought do not APP
pear feasaole-but it has been successfully
tried in New Hampshire, where the courts
were formerly constituted according to our
present system. The consolidation propos-
cd in reference to the supreme court, II ak
ing but two points for holding the sessions,
Rutland and Montpelier, will undoubtedly
meet with opposition from professional
prejudice or local jealousy of the towns
named in the bill. Yet when fairly con-
sidered, perhaps no more convenient points
could be selected if the system is to be
adopted. The combination of counties car
be changed, as undoubtedly they ma,
be when the subject comes up fol
consideration. There can be no doubt Of
a great saving of court expenses IN holding
the supreme courts al two points. M
matter whether it may be at Montpelier
and Rutland or at Burlington and Windsor
A still greater saving of expense would b.
made If the supreme court was held onll
at Montpelier. In this view the bill Of Mr.
Henry ought to be discussed in fa
manner, and not thrust aside as new rad
ical measures are apt to be on their frs
suggestion. II the measure has merit. |
will eventually succeed, after perbap
wasting large amount of money in fight
ing it. Therefore let the committee OIL
the judiciary in both branches of the gen
eral assembly give all parties hearing an
let the bill be reported upon its merits, an
not hastily decide the matter from eithe
sectional or professional prejudice

little taste for such works of art, is but too
painfully manifest 10 the lack of a suitable
place to hang them. When, however,
the state shall have fully appreciated the
"cramped" quarters in which the state
library is confined, and shall have made
provision for a suitable addition to the
state house that shall give TO the library
that space which its value and importance
demands, the defects of the original build
ers can and probably will be, in measure,
obviated. There can be no doubt but that,
when submitted to public inspection and
criticism. Mr.. Scott's work will be found
worthy Of the artist and the state.
REFORM SCHOOL FOR GIRLS
The resolution introduced this afternoon
by Mr.. Dana Of Cornwall, looking to the
establishment of a reform school for girls,
is move in the right direction. If boys
can be reformed by such school, why
should not a like provision be made fol
girls And since girls are not admitted to
Waterbury school, let some provision be
made for them there or otherwise.

MoNTPELIER, Oct. 10.


There is evidently 10 be an effort to
change the present prohibitory liquor law.
The radical temperance men desire to
strengthen it by making some of its pro-
visions more stringent, and the penalties
for first offenscs more severe. To this end
petitions already begin TO come in, with
good prospect of many more to follow.
On the other hand. many of the represent
atives cannot satisfy the combinations of
democrats and license republicans by whom
they were elected, unless they make the at
tempt to repeal the present law, and substi-
tute for it stringent license law;" and
the indications are that when it shall have
been ascertained just who is the best man
to introduce such measure, the bill will
be ''put in the mill" | cannot believe,
however, that any very material change
will be made in the present law.
