The Elections.


The lPatekmdR comments on the
officers elected, as follows:
Judge Bailey has made good rail
road commissioner, and was very
properly re. elected,
DR.. Atwater. the newly elected
commissioner of the insane, is a sikh
full and rising physician oc Burning
ton, who has devoted considerable
time and study TO the treatment of
the insane. His selection rs judi
cious one. sHt VIC predict that he will
rsa4Se u capital and popular officer.
Charges Of trreguiarity In the use
Of funds received for the labor of con-
victs in the State prison undoubtedly
had the effect Of making change in
the office Of superintendent. Mr..
Bailey, the new superintendent, is the
present member from, Windsor, and
has an excellent reputation as man
of business capacity and probity.
In the election OF .the directors OF
the State prison, and trustees of the
reform school, the Legislature adopt
ed the somewhat doubtful principle of
dropping two of the old board, retain
ing only one. The selections made,
however, were admirable, and the
new officers will discharge their dutics
faithfully and intelligently. The
election of Messrs.. Brigham and
Walton, too, as, the. new members on
the board Of trustees Of the
University Of Vermont and State Ag-
ricultural College, could not be inn
proved upon..
Of course the old judges were re-
elected without opposition, and to oil
the vacancy occasioned by the resig-
nation OF Judge Peck, Hon. H. Henry
Powers, Of Morristown, was chosen
Mr.. Powers is one of the foremost
and ablest lawyers in Vermont, and
will take q nigh rank as Judge
His election was an excellent one, and
one of which both the State and Mr..
Powers, may we'll be proud.
Altogether, Tuesdays work was a
good one, upon which all may be
congratulated.

Reighbors, are willing to engage with
so many Of the inhabitants OF the
town Of Canaan, that their ratable
estate will smounS to four-hflhs OF
the inventory Of said town, to sup
ptrt a preacher of the gospel, and
pay our proportion according to our
poll and estate, that can give rational
and scriptural evidence that he is in
ternally called of God to the work,
and his life, conversation and behav-
ior shall bear witness to it, TO the sat
isfaction of the churches concerned,
or with which lie may be connected,
and he shall hold to and preach
(which Is very different thing from
reading) the following doctrines, viz /;
/. Tha total moral depravity Of
human nature in its ia lien state.
2. The necessity of a special and
effectnal call by Sovereign free dis
tinguishing grace in order to saliva
ton.
8. Regeneration, or being born
again, by supernatural divine power
of the holy spirit in order to .eeing
and entering into the kingdom Of
God.
1. Justification by grace alone
without works, upon believing in
Christ.
5. Election according to the fore
knowledge Of Cody of some Of the
fallen race of Adam to salvation and
eternal, life through sanctitication OF
the Spirit and belief of the truth.
S. The certain perseverance of al
real saints by divine power and
Almighty grace in the way of truth
and holiness and eternal life.
Z. That none are qualified mem.
bars of Christ's visible church but
such as have been rcgenerated and
born again and have made actual
profession of their faith in Christ and
maintained good moral character.
8. Provided such a preacher can be
procured for four dollars per day, o,
under, and is endowed with such gift!
and qualifications that he shall be !
profitable and edifying preacher to us
50 long as we shall be willing to hell
support him as above expressed.
8. Taree-tfths Of the society shat
be q quorum to do business, and
three-tiiths Of the members present
shall decide on any question regularly
brought before the society.
10. If any person or persons thai
join the society shall hereafter be dis
satisfied and wish to withdraw from
it, they shall not be exempted from
paying their proportion Of the ex
pcnse Of the society previous to theil
giving notice to the society of their
intention of withdrawing from it.
IL. If we get subscribers enough tc
proceed, they shall form constitu
ton conformable to the sentiment:
above expressed, by which the socet,

From the above we should judg,
that people seventy years ago were
as particular in regard to the qualili

much more strict il. regard to the
manner of delivery, and doctrines
preached.-ED.

In accordance with the time-hon-
ored custom, and in harmony with the
Proclamation of the President of the
United States, i hereby appoint Thurs
day, the 26th day of November, A.
d. lS74, day of Thanksgiving and
praise to Almighty God. And re-
commend to the people Of the State,
on that day, in public religious SER
vices, in private exercises ofpiety and
devotion, and in deeds of philan-
thropy and acts of charity to the
needy, to express their gratitude and
thapktulness, and acknowledge their
obligation to HIM from whom all
blessings come, for the countless gifts
He showers upon US.
While We remember that our
fathers, whose custom we profess to
honor, found occasion for thanksgiv-
ing in their adversely, let us not, in
our prosperity, forget the Giver, in
the midst of plenty.

The Arkansas Middle.

Arkansas seems ambitious to sup
ply this country with local sort Of
Scheleswig-Holstein puzzle, for no
sooner is one branch of its intermin-
able State quarrel settled by tho Gen
eral Government, than another is
opened with fresh complications.
This time it is question, not of cleo
tions, but of constitutions. Mr.. BaX-
ter was elected Governor with his
term to begin January 1st, 1873, last
ing four years. His election was
contested by Mr.. Brooks, and it will
be remembered that there was ut one
time imminent danger Of bloodshed
growing out of the matter, when the
President recognized Baxter and thus
secured peace. 1t was natura lily sup
posed that Governor Baxter, after
having made such strenuous efforts to
obtain his office, would hold it through
the remainder Of his term. Now,
however, he has given way to new
Governor, Garland, who claims to be
chosen under new constitution.
The Lieutenant Governor, Smith,
does not acquisce in this action of his
chief, but claims that the new consti-
tuition is nullity and that Baxter's
abdication, therefore, leaves him act
ing Governor of Arkansas, and ac-
cordingly he calls upon the President
to sustain him in Office by protecting
him against domestic violence.
Il will pe seen that are two ques-
tions here involved: first, whether an
actual case requiring the constitution
al interposition of the Federal Govern
ment in Arkansas exists; and, Sec
ondly, whether the new constitution
is valid, so that, if the President has
any right to intervene, Lieutenant
Governor Smith is the one entitled to
call for his aid. The questions are
snarled up with more than dozen
perplexing points of law and fact,
which Attorney General Williams is
now considering. II seems to be
clear that the steps taken in forming
the new constitution were many of
them decidedly illegal. On the other
hand, the Republicans, or those now
supporting the appeal of Lieutenant
Governor Smith, made no effe 1tuaI
protest at the time, calculating that
they would be able to make up a case
for Federal intervention in the end.
This political mlscalculation, of
course, is not to be taken into nc
count by the Government, except so
far as it may have practically modi-
fed and complicated the case to he
decided. Nor, op. the other hand, are
the rumors that, Baxter has been paid

Notes from the Hub.
MONTPELIER, Nov. ID,

A few days ago bill was thrown
into the House to make y new county,
to be composed of Is towns to be
mostly taken from Whitman and
Windsor counties, the shire to be the
town of Chester. A special commit
tee was appointed in thu Senate and
House, of whom Senator Benton is
chairman. They hold their sessions
in the Senate Chamber evenings and
the contest is spirited and our Sena.
tor presides with great deal of dig
nifty and fairness and whatever may
be the report of the committee, the
House will make quick work of it.
1t would be very convenient for every
lawyer to have Court House set
down in his own door-yard or village.
Mr.. Storrs, of Brighton, took his seat
yesterday and although pale and weak
is fast mending. The House killed a
bill yesterday to grant free scholar
ships and TO create professorship in
our Agricultural College, making
large appropriation therefor. Our cele.
brated Agricultural College is most
beautiful humbug. The House to-day
very extensively killed the Board Of
Education and OF course it's secretary.
They had their defenders in the House
and outside, and it has been a hard
fight in the committee every step inch
by inch, the members of the Board
and its society appearing many times
before the Committee, and therefore
reported substitute bill providing
for a superintendent of public instruc-
ton, elected in joint assembly, define
and limit his duties, cut off the county
meetings of Superintendent, and in
stitute examinations, limit the ex-
pense, etc. The minority of three
made report to the House maintain
ing Board and provided an election
of its members in joint assembly.
After nearly four hours discussion,
the majority report was adopted by a
yea and nay vote of $50 to 20. A
great effort will be made TO kill il in
the Senate, and then, there is the Gov
ernor.
