TIE BANK OF TIE s7.a I'VE.

THE BANK OF THE !STAI,E.
We have before us the cat that has
so long been hid in the meal tub; the
explanation of the sudden, and to many
of us expected change of front in the
Moses" trial, and we are the more
confirmed Gf that be possible)that from
Governor to henchman, all through,
the principle of party rules everything
even justice trickles out of the party
spiggot, as party influence chooses to
dispense it. The man is fool who
admits any influence, that conflicts
with, or iasses justice; the man is a
knnve that uses any such influence, to
defeat justice, i'll Strengthening vice.
How far favor, fear, or otherconsider-
alton affected the Court in the late
Moses farce, may find some explana-
tion i'll the report submitted by the
committee (Messrs. Miles, Jones, Hn-
good and Bratton) oil behalf of the
taxpayers convention. Itwas evident
that Moses base as he is, was being
used to pull nuts out of the party fire,
and that his degraded position was
step stone to some adventurcr who if
nc did not aid to trip him, is not whit
more virtuous than the creature he
calls governor, and whom he fawns
upon only to stab. Moses was guilty
of larceny, rs he is guilty ofa thousand
crimes that degrade his Office, yet the
samo party lash that hcrded his con-
stituents to make him Governor is
cracking over the head of the Court
which is the creature of the party.
Moses and his constituency, the assem-
bly, and the Courts, are all ring, and
the throne above the conclave is "the
party" "fhe party" is corruption.
Why should the Court ccntrive to keep
Moses from the meshcs of law? Is it
compatible with the purity of its de-
pertinent? Why should it protect
Moses from trial? 1t would seem to
any candid mind that he should court
an investigation of the charges, if as
stated in his late disclaimer he is the
"mcek Moses" 1t is very evident that
there were outside considerations, that
smothcrcd justice, and the casual rca-
der may discover them in the loose,
nay criminal conduct of the Judge
who manipulated for the benefit of
Moses the party and others the assets
ofthc Bank of the State. So low have
the affairs of public life sunk in the
abyss of dcbauchcd morals, that even
nJudgc i'll the discharge of duty can
be blackmailed, and silcnced. Cham
berlain writes 81 confess that I am
astonislcd that Judge Graham should
have permitted the loans made, after
spending five years in collecting the
assets ofthis bank, and just upon the
eve OF final decree, these assets are
being scattered here and there upon
securities not II whit better than those
which were the cause of SO much loss
heretofore to the bank" # 4 *
"lf this thing is continued wash my
hands Of it, and | now protest against
it as wholly unwarranted in law and
good policy. The State is unqucstion-
ably liable for all debts Of the bank
not paid by these assets, and / cannot
sit by and sec them scattered in this
most rninous manner" A people
crushed to earth with taxes, and cursed
with ignorance, arc again to pay for
tic looscncss Oft party court; Yet so
il is, and who expected better?

Death by Drowning.

f. II. Gardiner, our well known and
genial townsman, met with sad death on
the evening of Saturday last. He left the
"Battle Hill hotel at Fort Ann about 8
o'clock on the evening above mentioned to
drive to Comstock's Landing, where he had
been employed for short time. He drove
a spirited horse attached to skeleton"
buggy. At about half-past eight o'clock
the horse returned to the hotel dripping
with perspiration, and only a portion OF
the harness on his person The presence
of the horse in this condition gave rise to
the widest fears in regard TO the fate of
Mr.. Gardiner. Search was Immediately
instituted for the missing man, and about
three o'clock on Sunday afternoon follow
ing his body was found in the canal little
above what is called the ''wooden lock"
To all appearances the horse had become
frightened, probably at a passing train of
cars which run very close to the tOwpath
on which Mr. Gardner was known to be
driving and leaped into the canal. What
was the most singular, the horse had swan
number of rods from where he
went into the canal, with the wagon
attached, to "sllp' in the tow path
climbed out and returned to the hotel, leav-
ing portions of the wagon along the road.
That he did swim some eighty rods with
the buggy attached, is plain to be seen from
the marks on the tow path where he jump
ed into the water, and where he climbed
out at the "slip" below. Coroner Carver,
on hearing of the sad event, repaired to the
spot and summoned a jury, who rendered a
verdict of accidental drowning"
Mr.. Gardiner was As years of age, and
leaves wife and three children to mourn
his loss. $.

To-day occurs the annual reunion OF the
Vermont officers at Montpelier. These &C.
casions are of great interest and generally
well attended, while this year, from the
fact that the meeting is to be at the capital
where is now assembled the legislature of
the state, it will be the best meeting of the
kind ever held by the officers since the war.
The Grafton is to be delivered by Major
Geo. Il. Childs of st. Adams, gallant
and eloquent officer who served in the
Massachusetts, soldiery during the war, and
is now employed as private secretary TO ex-
Gov. Smith. In the evening will occur the
banquet at Bishops Hotel, which will
without doubt be fitting feast for SO grand
an occasion, and which will be followed by
toasts and speeches from those present.
The legislature has this year many of the
bravest and foremost of Vermont officers,
who will be prepared no doubt to grace
the occasion with their presence. Such
men as Gen. Henry, Col, Proctor, Colonel

The North Granville Seminary.

Probably one of the finest seminary build
ings in New York is that recently erected
in North Granville, and opened for the fall
and winter term Monday. The North
Granville institution is school fpr boys.
George A. Coles and Charles F. Dowd are
proprietors. Charles +. Dowd, principal
and manager, and W. Wedworth Dowd
associate principal The building is of Gle
giant design, with all the modern improve
ments for heating and ventilation, and is
delightfully."- located. Prof. Dowd VIII not
relnquish his charge of Temple Grove
seminary, but will visit the North Gran
vile schoo! twice week, thus giving it
the value of his experience and his watch
full supervision. The old institution,
burned in 1871, was a seminary for young
ladies', and we do not doubt that the celeb
riry which it then attained will be rivalled
by the new seminary. A very handsome
circular ghas been issued by Mr.. Dowd
giving an excellent view of the grounds
and the building.
