Vice President of the United States, and to
prepare and report series of constitution
al amendments which should remedy
acknowledged defects. The committee had
several meetings, agreed upon n series of
proposed amendments, accompanying the
same by an elaborate report. These pro-
posals of amendments and the report were
presented to Congress at an early day, but
no action has been taken thereon. We do
not propose, now to inquire whether or
not the propositions of the committee
would exactly meet the necessity of the
country, or whether they might not have
been improved in whole or in part. That
is of no consequence now. They GER
tainly, however, presented basis for
action, and, if defective, they
might have been so amended and improved
as TO have perfected system upon which
the country would have agreed. AS it is,
the next presidential election must be con-
Quoted with the same cumbersome ma
chinery which has been so long in vogue.

RUTLAND COUNTY.
WASHINGTON COUNTY.
WAS SATISFACTORILY

Some four weeks ago, we presented to
our fellow citizens the name of Asahel
Peck, of Jericho, as fit and proper man
to be the next governor of Vermont. Be
fore that time, several names had been
mentioned in connection with that high
and honorable office, but not one of them
'filled the bill" Judge Peck had long and
faithfully served the state on the bench Of
her highest courts, whittier he had original
" been called without solicitation on his
part, and to which he had, in like manner,
been annually reelected without the
thought Of opposition. From that high
judicial position, we knew he had de-
tcrmned to retire, and were authorized so
TO state. Immediately we placed his name
before our fellow citizens, feeling, as we
then said, that it would act as oil poured
upon troubled waters. and that the authori-
tative announcement of his intended re-
tirement from the bench came like a
revelation in Vermont politics. Our object
in enforcing the claims of Asahcl Peck
was that we might have governor of
whom we need not be ashamed Il man
hat a1t an
state one who would not seek Office nor
stoop to wirc-pulling, button-hol-
ing, packing primaries, sending out
hired retainers, writing letters in
his own behalf, or to spending
money freely for the same selfish end
MS we knew other men, if they can be
called men. were doing a man Of integ-
rty, ability. dignity, with knowledge Of
our history, legislation, constitution and
laws, and who, more lvcr, could write his
own message without calling upon some
friend to correct its grammar, spelling
etc. Some ten days thereafter, with that
pr9t0tnd knoYle lge of politics and public
affairs, for which of late it has been SC
noted, the Rutland HeraH stated in liz
leading editorial, "We do not believe thai
" Judge Peck, with all his capacity, learn
I" ing and integrity, is going to be satisfac
tory" The people of Vermont, the re-
publican party of the state, through thei
delegates, yesterday, decided that he "i'
going to be satisfactory he wai

state have decided between us, and we arr
content-rnay, more, we rejoice not SC
much for our triumph as that the republi
cans of Vermont have added fresh honor
to themselves and preserved the good nam,
of the state.

Troy, June II, 1874.
Reading OF Thesis was concluded by the
graduating class on Tuesday forenoon, and
demonstrated that the discussions were pre-
pared in no superficial manner.
An alumni meeting was held at 2:30 p.

space will allow only short extract from
his remarks:
A half century of work has been accom-
plished, and to what good purpose let the
speaking pages Of the records bear witness.
Hardly state in the union but has felt the
influence Of its grad iates Few public

it has had a remarkable share in contribut-
ing to the material development Of the
country. This pioneer school of science
has struggled and lived through discourage
ments of no ordinary character 1t has
not only had to educate the scientific stu
dents, but it has also had to educate the
public, so far as 1t could reach, to the idea
that theory and practice were not antagon-
istic, but supplementary TO each other
The oldes, living graduate was also
present, who With others spoke few
words.
Members of the alumni and friends, at 4
o'clock, were conveyed by cars to Oak

exterior being a type of the outward ap

of science. Appropriate addresses were
made by the Hon. Martin /, Townsend of
Troy, and others ; all paying the highest
tribute to him, not merely as teacher, but
also as a man of thorough research.

NO CHANGE IN THE ''EIECTOkAL
COLLEGE.o

We referred, Wednesday, to some of the
shortcomings of the present Congress, but
there is another, more important than all,
to which we desire briefly to call attention.
One of the last acts of the forty-second
Congress was to instruct committee of
the Senate, of which Mr.. Morton OF In
diana, was chairman, to examine into the
