ST. ALBANs.-The Messenger thus de-
soribes the situation in reference to the new
court house, to completr which tax on
Franklin County has Just been laid by the
legislature
Here the county has on hand a structure
two-thirds completed but good tor nothing
until done. To finish and furnish 1t would
require a tax of some tnlrty cents on rhe
do1lar of the grand list Of the county. The
neonIe felt already sufficiently burdened and
were indignant, that by even an error OF
Indictment on the part OF their officers they
shonld he under the necessity of contribut-
inq more. Many were saying, LET the
whole thing 90. and when We get around
IN il we will build a court house when We
please and for the same money that is now
reouired to complete this. Others were
saving. Let it rest two years and then II
81 Adams does not IN the meantime com
plete the building, We may be better able
| To do il than now" To Offset these posi-
| tions there was the ever present fact that
81 Adams. the worst taxed town in the
comfy. had already contributed $40, 900
more than her proportion OF the tax, which
1as ali She agreed to do, and her
neonle were lust a. badly disappointed
in the result as any Others and would hnd
an additional burden more oppressive also
the fact that unless the building is now
finished the county must continue to pay
rent for an unfit place to hold court and ioi
clerk and probate Offices where the record;
are continually exposed to destruction
Therefore, any delay for the sake of pun
ishing ST. Adams would not only be doing
Injustice to a town which had made gen
erous gift to the county. but would be pun
ishinc the county great deal worse. Ate
the fullest investigation by the commit
tee it had been found that St. Adams wa
no more responsible for the situation thai
any of the rest of the county and that non
of its citizens had in any manner interiere'
with or Influenced the commissioners in th
discharge of their duties. 1t had been foun'
also that the building was thoroughly con
structed, so far, and the money honestly ez
pended. The committee were satisfied tina
the commissioners had been deceived in tn
estimate of the architect, not wilfully
probably, but as nearly everybody Away
is deceived who goes through the agony {

NORTH FkRRIsBURGH, VI, Nov. 23d, 1874.
To the Editor of the Free Press and Zines.
There are some four or six men, as they
style themselves, living hore, of from 10 to
II years Of age, who certainly act as if the
devil had taken poss sssion Of them. They
are lawless, prolan', dishonest evil minded,
lazy and untrutf full They have torn the
school house hs if down, breaking a dozen
lights of glass at time for amusement.
The outbuil6 .ngs there are almost totally
demolished. They throw stones through
any pers o as house regardless of danger to
the Occur pants. Their parents are most of
them poor. hard working, respectable peO-
pie, VINO in most cases cannot control them.
Th ev will swear at the " old man. or the
- Old woman on the slightest provocation.
Gtey sit in stores and public places curslng
aad smoking, and making indecent remarks
| if lady chances in sight. Thew do this
: while their mothers are at work (sOlne out
washing) earning something for them to
eat, and hired man is at home saving the
wood which they should be doing them
selves. In short there is nothing which
their low cunning and bad tastes can sug
gest which they do not do. But l coulC
never tell the half of their mean tricks anC
might as well stop. What do you think o
them? How would you like to hire
young man with such recommend. How
do they like their picture? | have grea
mind to attach their names ; but | forbea
this time. If they do met mend their way
something worse than seeing their names i!
print will happen them, for peo pie are onl.
waiting to determine what to do ard it vii
be done ut once. Is it possi lie to sem
them to the Reform School ? Or wha
would you advise. The subje' It is interest

so fearful is proper object of wise. firm
and strong repressive legislation. Such
truths should silence the popular talk about
''sumptuary legislation" If the good
order of society, and the protection of per-
sons and property. arc proper objects OF
law, then the law should lay no light hand
on traffic which so terribly endang:rs those
objects.

after all a Vermonter and resident of

was a sort of movable affair and as occa-

between Norwich and Sharon, and it fur
thermore appears that the article he manu-

him to Newport, where he got bail in $500
