things and elected some mutton heads.

says: 'Mr. Dennison was the choice of
but very few of them who voted for
him; the votes were not cast for Deni-
son so much us against Poland, and
their number shows the power of the
popular current against Poland. He
was an impolitic man, time was unfa-
vorable, the tide got started against
him, and it swept him down" The
Post says of the Argus libel. that '.the

nothing but little exhibition of

Judge Poland's Withdrawal.

We wish to call the attention of our
readers to Judge Polaud's letter, pub
liSlIrd in this weeks issue. in which he
withdraws from the Congressional con
test.
As II citizen of the Second District
and especially of Caledonia county, we
regret exceedingly the existence of those
circumstances, which seem to render
such action advisable. for we predict
umhcsitatingly that it will he II long
time before the District finds Il man.
who will have the ability and inclina-
ton to serve his constituents so faith
fully and who will do such honor to
their choice and to Vermont, as has
Judge Poland during the ten years of
his scrN ice in Congress.
As a friend and wrll-wShcr of Judge
ioland'S we fail to see anything t" re
urri in the loss of his Congressional po-
sition; the honor and reputation he has
won in his judicial and legislative ca
recr bring him Ia Il future of assured
success.
When the bitter personal feeling of
the present shall have sulsided. as it
viii after its malice is satisfied, two
thlrds of the opponents of Judge Poland
will agree with lis hat this State and
the county in particular have lost much,
while the man whom their luminosity
sought to injurc has gained us much as
they have lost.
Cur opinion of the manner i'll which
the campaign against Judge Poland
has been conducted has already, pei
haI~. been plainly enough expressed.
but we cannot leave the subject without
AGAIN referring in terms OF tlIr strongest
condemnation to the couIsc taken 10y
Hose persons who have been most az:
tive IN conducting the opposition, Il
couI>c displaying personal ill-Will, ac-
,Iiird hN the haScst motives and bring
ing into use to support its ends the
Inc:inest and most baselcSS fabrication.
For ourselves we are entirely satisfied
with our course in having supported
Judge Poland and feel assured that Az
impartial and unplcjudicrd future Will
plarc him among NcImont's wiScSt
statesmen and most faithful servants.

Indian Depredafi0ns.

The Northern Enterprise, published
at Chico, Butte county, in its issue of
March 18th says: "It has been gen.
eral supposition that the predatory
band Of Indians known as the Mill
Creek tribe had been exterminated.
Years past, this band of Indians had
been the terror of this section, their
murders and rapine being notorious.
Under the brave and daring adven-
lures of Hi Good, Sandy Young, Bob
Anderson and others, these Indians
had been so decimated that it was be-
lieved there was not more than one or
two left. On Thursday of last week,
the camping-grounds of Levi Smith
and Mr.. Thomas, on Mill Creek, were
visited by some of this tribe, who had
for some time been noticed in the
neighborhood, and the camp robbed of
all the flour, sugar, tea, and other pro-
visions on hand. They also took away
a fayorite shotgun of Mr.. Smiths.
Next week Young and others of the
old Indian hunters will be upon their
trail"

Private letters from London give
some particulars of the last illness of
Parepa-Rosa. On Christmas eve she
passed long evening singing the
music of Elsa in "Lohengrin." She
was taken sick the next day; though
at first after the birth of her dead
child, she appeared to be doing we'll,
the symptoms soon became so unfa-
vorable that Mr.. Rosa, who had re-
joined his opera company in the prov
inces, returned to London. Several
days before her death Madame Rosa
lost consciousness, and never regained
it, calling constantly in her delirium
orher child. The physicians expressed
the opinion that even if her life could
have been saved, she would have re-
manned mere wreck, and possibly
have become blind.

France Aiming.

According to the Deutsche Ndchr;chtso. a
semi-ofiical Berlin organ, the military repre-
sentatives of foreign powers in France have re-
ported according to the best authorities, that
for some weeks a still greater degree OF activity
prevails in the offices of the French army and
navy departments. This significant intelli-
gence arrives with the news respecting the in
creasing exertions which are being made to
forward the building of the forts on frances
eastern boundary, and the quickness with
which the work is being forced in the arsenals
and navy ports In Berlin military circles it
is universally believed that the gradual and
fixed organization Of the French army would
not demand such strenuous exertion, and
therefore that France is preparing herself to
be ready to act in as short time as possible.
We can make no positive assertions as to what
has caused the aforementioned quicker fur
thering OF frances preparations for war at
this moment; but among well-versed poll
ticians the opinion prevails that it is all in
tended to be nothing but demonstration, to
be OF service to the French Government in
their relations to foreign powers The official
Partisan journals have almost gone SO
far as to hint this, accusing other Gov
ernments of not having prevented English,
German and Dutch vessels from carrying
arms and ammunition for the Carlists,
and landing them on the Cantabrian
coast It is even reported that the
French Government has complained.
through their representative at one of the Eu
ropean courts, OF the inefficient guarding of
the Spanish coast. This would be irving to
turn the tables on those Powers that com
planned of the bad guarding of the French
and Spanish boundary. We must wait and
see what more the French Government in
tends by these accusations, provided, of
course, they are true, which, however, we
have good reason to believe For the present
it is sufficient to assert that the German Gov
eminent will not suffer itself to be misled by
any such provocations to adopt any rash
measures. One of our leading German states
men remarked lately that Gin proportion as
the state OF affairs in France became more un-
bearable the probability of our having a war
with her again approached nearer"

The cause Of Ritualism has approached II.
climax in England as well as in this country
Certain OF the Ritualists have thorough de.
testation Of the word Protestant" At one
OF the meetings of the Chursh Congress held
lately at Brighton. delegate spoke of the
Church as "oUr Protestant Church Until
that time everything had gone on smoothly at
the Congress These words, however. were
the signal for the battle The HIGH. Church
party present rose to mar and called ont
NO, no; not Protestant, never Protestant. I"
The opponents OF Ritualism stoutly maintained
the Protestant character Of the English Church,
The advocates Of Ritualism as stoutly de-
med it. They would not admit that
there had ever been a reformation in their
church, for that would indicate break in IT.,
continuity from the days of the Apostles. The
children are enlisted in the fight. At recent
celebration at R:tualist church at Brighton,
the children sang hymn commencing thus:
I'm not little Protestant.
The Low Church, at the same place did no,
give back the echo. There the children wera
taught to respond.
I'm not little Ritualist,
No Romanist am l.
The Ritualists are in peculiar position
They claim kinship with the Roman Catholics.
but the Roman Catholics will not acknowledge
the relationship. They claim also to be mem
bers OF the Church of England-but not Pro-
testants. How to reconcile these contradic-
tons. we must leave to those who believe in
them.
1t is pretty certain that if ever the negroes
come over to the white people of the South
thsy will come in body. 1t is maintained
that the negroes love their old masters and
trust them more than they do any other men
IN the South-more even than thew do their
political leaders. The Cincinnati Commercial
tells the story of large land-holder in South
Carolina with whom part of his former
slaves still live, working on shares. They
trust him in every way except politics
and there only because they dare not
The prevalent opinion among them will not
permit the individual negro to 60 except
with the large body OF them. They come to
their former master for advice as to what to
plant and when to plant it. In the smalle,t
business transaction, they always consult him
When they have little money to deposit, they
deposit with him. The case of this North
CAROL ia landowner is not an isolated one. 1t
Is not improbable that, in the lbng run, the
negroes will side with the South srn whites and
abandon the Radicals and carpet-bagcers.
They will go to those in political matters ia
whom they have confidence as to nearly every
thing else.-Micago Tribune.
