The mayor Of Burlington called meet
ing for Saturday evening to appoint dele
gates to represent the interests of Burlng-
ton before the legislative committee at
Montpelier on Thursday Mayor Blodgeit
was appointed chairman and Charles f.
Allen secret aiy
A motion was made by c. ). Kinsley TO
appoint five delegates to appear at Mont
peier Capt II. II. Start favored the mo-
ton as now was the time to consider the
question seriously, rs many members of the
legislature were seriously in earnest in this
matter. Hon. Geo. II. Bigelow thought
there was meagre attendance for such a
meeting. Burlington now has many bust
ness projects on hand, and questioned
whether il was not better to look after
business interests in regard to which there
was no question, rather than this. Judge
Tyler thought the city had better take hold
of the state house question in earnecl. II.
II. Talcott thought the meeting should en-
dorse Mr.. Smalleys action in introducing
the bill for the removal of the capital from
Montpelier and repealed the idea that 1t was
joke Mr.. Bigelow said Mr.. Smalley in
troduccd the bill by request and was unwil-
ling to further it and had agreed to support
the bill appropriating 100000 for state
library building at Montpelier. Judge
Wales vas not in sympathy with this
movement. 1t was mere waste of time
and labor to hold meetings or send dele
gates to support that bill. The people of
the state had twice fixed on Montpelier as
the capital, and that decision could not be
unsettled so easily as some supposed. He
believed that Sl50,000 could be invested
by the city to much better advantage in
some mechanical enterprise, than in build
ing a state house. Leading citizens of
Montpelier had told him that il they had
put the $4,000 or 100000 they paid for
the state house into something like our pio-
neer shops it would have been much better
for Montpelier. If the state shsuld ever
choose to put the state house here, well and
good he would have the city say that ii
would gladly accept it, but he would never
vote dollar to remove it.
Gen. Henry knew there was strong de-
sire among the members So lcmove the
state mousse 10 Burlington. lie wanted n
vote on the question.
A committee was appointed 10 90 to
Montpelier, consisting of b. j. Hcinebe, q,
Fred. NJ. Van Sicklen, w. w Henry, Tor
rey E. Wales, and James A. Shedd.
Messrs. Van Sicklen, Shedd and Wales de-
clined to serve on the committee r. II.
Start, +. T. Hendee. and G. G.. Benedict
weIc appointed to fill the vacancies. Mr..
Benedict declined and p. r. Sweet was
appointed in his place.
This capital moving in our judgment is
a joke. The Montpelier hotels have dis
gusled the people, hence to spur them up
to good fodder this bill has been introduced.
If it is a serious question Rutland should
move al once in the matter, and not allow
Burlington to take it without struggle.

The state UnivcrsIty,

A bill is before the house committee of
ways and means of which section pro-
vides for the appropriation of a sum not
exceeding 81 800 annually for the purpose
of paying the tuition of poor and descrv
ing young men and women, residents of
the state, in the university of Vermont and
state agricultural college. By the provi.
sions of section 2, the sum of 1000 an
nually is appropriated to pay the salary of
professor of agriculture in the univer
sity. If the bill ever gets before the house,
1 am convinced it will pass, surely the first
section of it. OF all the states in the
Union, "Vermont, the mother of men, is
the stingiest in her educational policy. The
university of Vermont was founded as
state institution, bnt though profcssedly
under state patronage, it has received but
little pecuniary aid from the state. a
number of the states have appro-
priated as much as one million dol
lars each, for the benefit of their
agricultural colleges. Vermont has done
very little in this direction, in proportion to
her ability and to the extent of her agricul-
tural interests. If, however, our farmers
do not wish to found professorshlp of ag-
riculturc they are the ones to suffer, and no
one else has right to complain. But how
any member of the legislature who has any
appreciation of the value of culture, can
hesitate to vote for the first section of the
hill 10 noe ,,,x, rpr ,rnb noiA Nnt I hox
heard, indirectly, that some members of the
committeeto which the bill is referred, say
that there is no need of making it any easier
for young men to acquire an education, for
boy who has ambition and pluck enough
will carry himself through college in spite
of everything. Certainly: But suppose
he hasn't zeal, and courage, and ply steal
vigor sufficient to submit to four years hui
initiation and want, he may need the disci
pline of a college course nevertheless. 1t is
possible for a penniless but bright young
man, by borrowing, begging, living on his
friends, and subsisting on diet of crackers
and herring to pursue his college course TO
the end, and such students achievements
are usually worth what they cost. But with
majority of poor boys, the promise of
little pecuniary help, say $50 year, is suf-
ficient to determine them to go to college
whereas, without the hope of this assist
ance, they would feel bound to stay at
home. There is another consideration in
favor of the bill. The colleges on our
border, such as Dartmouth, Amherst and
Williams, pick off our promising Vermont
boys by promising to them what our own
colleges cannot always promise, free tuition.
These boys are spotted, while fitting for
college, by foreign institutions and so the
state leaves them.-Montpelier cor. S. Al
bans Adpertiser.

Senator Logan arrived in Washington
Saturday with the intention of proceeding

In the opinion of the Chicago 7,mes, tie
successor of Speaker Blaine Is Fernando
Wood, and. SO believing, the sharp and
saucy Western journal looks over the ma
terial in congress from which he probably
will construct the committees.
The next spcakership is already being
earnestly discussed, and Pennsylvania has
already made claim in favor of Samuel
j. Randall, who is backed by the seventeen
democrats in the new delegation from that
state.
No less than three movements are on
foot by different parties to start a daily
democratic organ in Washington, and it is
moi improbable that a morning and even
ing paper in the interest of that party will
be started within the next three months.
\ curious phase of the Butler defeat in
massachusetts, is that in several instances
the dcfunct statesman failed to receive as
many votes on election day as he did in
the caucus. Thus, the town of Hamilton
gave him 20 votes in the caucus and only
42 at the polls. Such an unusual change
is rather doubtful compliment to the per-
suasve arguments of Mr.. Dawes and
Speaker Blaine.
1t is rumored in Washington that there
is strong newspaper scheme to make E.
b. Washburne of Illinois the next republi-
can candidate for the presidency. The as
sumption of the control by Joseph Mcdill
of the Chicago Tribune Is a part of the
programme, an arrangement having been
made by him and Murat Halstead of the
Cincinnati Commercial, when the two were
in Europe, that these two papers should
lead in the scheme.
The Washington newspaper that is I'M
derstood to voice Grants sentiments says
that in the next House of Representatives,
on Mondays, under suspension of the rules
resolutions will be offered by the New
York democracy for ''frce trade, hard
money and home rule" by the Ohio democ-
racy for ian immediate increase of green
back currency by the New England de-
mocracy for Ian immediate resumption of
metallic currency and by the Michigan
democracy for "the repeal of the legal
tender act, to take effect no later than
July 4, 1876, and specie basis and free
banks with secured currency"
