The ~. Adams Murders.

Nothing new has transpired concerning
the st. Adams murders, at least nothing
has been disclosed by the authorities, who
are busily at work endeavoring to ferret
out the guilty parties. BY direction of the
selectmen an inquest was held yesterday
before Justice II. III. Farnsworth and a
number of witnesses were examined "rel-
alive to the cause and manner of the death
of Miss Ball, IN the hope of eliciting some
facts that may lead to the discovery of the
perpetrator of the crime"
Sheriff Place has seen the party who is
detained in Jail, at Montreal, on suspicion
of being the murderer of Menard, and
thinks that he isn't the guilty man.

THE LION, LAMB AND E.If"El 7,
CHILD

We never expected to live to sec the day
when the lion and the lamb should lie down
together and little child should lead them.
Indeed, we always understood that the true
Interpretation of the prophecy was that
this wonderful exhibition would not take
place until the end Of all mundane affairs
Still accepting this Interpretation. we must
believe that that which we see, far off. is
but at most life tablcau. The lion is the
Montpelier A1yas, the organ par e1celtRce
OF the unterrficd democracy of Vermont .
the lamb is the Montpelier Frtemon, the
home organ and supposed to he owned in
part by Mr.. Willard and the little child is
Charles W. Willard, the present Represent
alive in Congress from this district, for
whose denomination both newspapers are
laborlng with might and main. 1t is n
notable fact that with the exception of Il
single newspaper-an that located in the
northern county of the district, whose cd
itor is under recent and peculiar obligations
to the sitting member, and the residence of
whose editor has sent the strongest delega-
ton, yet elected, in opposition to his re-
nomination-all the earnest hearty support
which Mr. Willard has received has
come from these two newspapers.
From the lamb it was to be expected,
because " charity begins at home, and the
repute of those who neglect their own
honeaI,nlJ 10, lI,. ID,,
that the democratic organ should have
hand in making republican nominations
is something new in Vermont politics. One
thing, however, may be said for Hiram
Atkins. He is no fool, and he generally
knows what he is about. He probably
does now. He probably knows his man.
lie certainly ought to, having lived by his
side for years. He well knows that it is
impossible to elect democrat to congress
from this district, and, he is. therefore,
after the next best thing 1t may be the
right and proper thing for Hiram Atkins
and the Argus to select republican can
didaie Tor Congress, but we must confess
that it looks to lis little suspicious. Aside
from his politics, we have the utmost re-
specl for the man, but we can hardly bring
ouiselt to believe that he is entirely honest or
disinterested in his support of Mr.. Willard :;
there must be n "cat in the meal bar"
somewhere what it is, we do not pretend
to say. Those republicans who desire to
follow the beck of shrcwd democratic
