Last Friday evening, Mr.. G. G. Whip
pie, one of our most respected citizens. re-
ceived beautiful present in the shape of
an ebony cane with massive gold head on
which was the inscription &C. G. w. from
d. b. W." The donor is Mr. d. B. Whip
pie, of Saginaw. Mich, a cousin of the re-
cipient. The present was accompanied
with a very handsomely worded note
breathing sentiments of friendship and
love.
On the same evening Mr. and Mrs.
Chauncey G.. Fish, paused at the threshold
of the first quarter of their married life in
the race for century, to look over the
past and entertain their many friends by a
silver wedding. Innumerable and costly
presents were presented and the congratu-
lations OF a host were theirs.
The heaviest business in town at the
present time is watching for whooping
cough and scarlet fever, both of which
make parents look each and every way,
but as yet few fatal cases.
Fairhaven has taken a long step in The
right direction in regard to her facilities
for education, having purchased the Town
hall for that purpose. She now has five
large school rooms, two recitation rooms
and five frst-cass teachers to commence
the winter term. The town has been in
duced to do this IN a great measure through
the influence left by the institute holden
here last spring and by what they have
seen of the benefits derived from the Nor
NAL school, Castleton, as the excellence of
the mode of instruction taught there be-
comes more widely known the people are
more ready to avail themselves of the adj
vantages it presents. $.

From the west we get a true story which
gloomly suggests some Frydens weird and
horrible faneies. 1t is well for mankind's
peace of mind that things like this which we
are about to relate seldom occur. The St.
Louis chief ofpolice was very much agitated
the other morning by receipt OF telegram
from the conductor OF Vandalia train then
approaching the city In the briefest man
ner the dispatch stated that in the baggage
car of that train was II trunk emitting so
diabolical nm odor that it irresisibly sug-
gested mufderous tragedy; and further.
that its owner was on the train, and the
number of the check was so and so. A
whole battalion of policemen and detectives,
was sent to the depot, the train arrived, the
trunk was quietly confscated, and its pro-
prietor secretly accompanied to his hotel.
not to he arrested until its fatal contents
were revealed.
Then followed Il scene to which only the
of Kaulback and Dore could do Justice
The lid of the trunk was slowly lifted in
the presence of u horrOr-stricken group,
and--it is hard to mention fearful fact--
TO their dilated eyes were disclosed the
ghastly forms of six Limburgcr checscs.

The Value of 'riu,a

One fine morning when BENJAMIN Frank.
I'm was busy preparing his newspaper for
the press, lounger stepped into the store
and spent an hour looking over the books,
etc Finally taking one in his hand he
asked the price. 'N
"One dollar"
some dollar?" said he. "Can't w, ,aLo
less than thatp'
''No indeed; that is the price,
Another hour nearly passed when the
lounger asked:
us Franklin at homer"
yes, he is in the printing office"
~ want to see him."
The boy Immediately informed Franklin
that there was gentleman in the store wait
ing to see him.
FRANKLIN was soon behind the counter
when the lounger book in hand, addressed
him thus; "'''''e'
take for this book2" ''' W."
lone dollar and quarter"
lone dollar and a quarter! Why your
man asked only one dollar" "'

from town, when, perhaps, their names
would be erased. The check list, as 1t now
is, is utterly unreliable and worthless. 1t
has never been required, so far as we know
or are informed-and we believe our
knowledge and information arc correct
for voter to personally appear before the
proper officers in order to have his name
| placed on the check list as a voter. This
is no way in which to make out check
list, so as TO guard against illegal voters.
No mans name should be registered unless
he is personally present for that purpose,
prepared to answer any questions which
may be properly asked him touching his
qualifications as Il voter. But no such
course has been taken except in exccp-
tional cases. We freely acknowledged
that we are; in part, TO blame for this de-
reelection of duty having been a member
of the registering board, we believe, when
the law requiring a check list first became
operative. In order that the law sbould
answer the purpose for which it was in
tended, every voter should personality, al.
tend to the registering of his name. TO
require that in town of this population
might be n great hardship; but If the
town was divided into small election di,- |
tricts there would be little or no incon- |
venience in requiring obedience to such
requirement In this way, too the object
OF a check list would be answered. and il |
would be impossible tor an illegal voter to
obtain the registering of his name.
Again. why should we be required TO
vote in one and the same place for |
one class of officers and not for an
other How many votes, think you, |
would be poled for governor, lieutenant |
governor and state treasurer, if the voters |
were all required tc repair TO one given |
place and there deposit their ballots or lose
their right to vote In the election of state |
officers, members of congress, state sena- |
tors and county officers, the people vote in |
election distrcts-that is, in the town of |
their residence. Why should not the same |
principle Of election districts be extended |
to the election of town representatives and |
justices of the peace ? A member of con-
gress represents given district containing
a number of districts, and in these minor
districts the elections are held. The repre-
sentative represents the whole town, but
why, in large towns where it would be
more convenient to the voters, should they
not, also, be elected in minor districts? In
the transaction of merely town business
and in the election of mere town officers,
there is a necessity and propriety for the
whole town to come together in one place.
because, perhaps, in no other way could
true understanding of the wants
of the whole town. the amount of
taxes necessary to be raised, ETC., ETC., be
determined. But the reasons which could
with force and proprety be urged in favor
OF having to'pn meetings in one place can
have no force or applicability when used
in reference TO Jieemen's lmeeting's-and it
is only these that we have been consider
ing. We have not, as yet, exhausted the
subject, but we have said enough for the
present

NO SPECIAL CHARTERS.

The approaching session of the legisa-
ture promises to be busy and important
one. The two questions of railroad taxa
ton and the regulation of rates Of
freight for transportation will, if properly
matured and considered, occupy much of
their time and attention. To these sub
jects, the legislature ought to bring all the
care and thought possible, and devote as
much time and attention thereto as may be
compatible with the proper consideration
of other matters of necessary legislation.
They can. if they WILL gain much time for
the discussion OF these and other import
ant matters, if they will, at once, put their
foot down on the granting of special rail
road charters, or acts enabling certain
towns to aid in the building of certain rail
roads. We already hear and read of no.
tices of applications for acts Incorporating
railroads and giving permission to towns to
aid in their construction; and such projects
will, probably, be brought before the legis-
lature in countless numbers. So long rs
the right of petition is guaranteed to the
people, these applications must be respect.
fully received by the legislature: but
after being SO received, they could and
should be killed IN the quickest manner
conceivable and without the use of hardly
n moments time. There is no call or me-.
eessty Jor these special acts. Two years
ago, the legislature passed general rail
road law and, also general law NV which
towns we're enabled to aid in the construc-
ton OF railroads. Thes" laws give all the
powers Let essaIy to bnill railroads in any
pat at the state, as wei as authorize the
towns Interested, or through which The
proposed road is 10 pass, to aid in the
building thereof. 'lhe object of these gen
eral laws WAS to prevent special legislation
ON these subjects We all know how
much of the time OF the legislature. and Of
IT'S committees, is occupied with these mat
tiers, and with what expense to The state.
This will be the first legislature 10 convene
since the passage Of these genera. laws.
and we look to them to interpret their
meaning to be that special railroad charters
or enabling acts shall not be passed. BY
taking such course, they will save the
state from much expense and remove there
from one cause Of reproach-thc only re-
preach, we believe, that has ever been
attempted to be cast on her fair name.

The Russian Mission.

The President has deferred selecting a
successor to Hon. Mashall Jewell as Min
lister to Russia till October, or till the re-
turn of the Emperor and Court, now alb
sent from st. Petersburg, which will be
some time in the early part of Novem-
Der. Candidates to fill the Russian mis-
sion are not wanting, and the position is
not likely to go begging. Among the as
pirants to the place are Gen. Mapney of
Tennessee, an cX-Confederate officer and a
personal friend of President Grant, Nor
ton McMichael of Philadelphia, who is
backed by the Union League of that city.
and Ben. Moran, Secretary of Legation at
London, who was recently rendered and
refused the portfolio of Third Assistant
Secretary of State.
The friends of McAIichael are quite ac-
tive in his behalf, but it is not thought that
the mission will be rendered to Pennsyl-
vania, the objection being raised that that
state has now a first class legation at Con-
stantincple, which is represented by George
ii. Boxer, a Pennsylvania. In this con-
nection the Washington Chronicle says edi-
torlally that a member of the cabinet is
authority for the statement that the Presi-
dent had decided upon an appointee some
time ago, but this determination had been
abandoned quite recently for reasons which
the cabinet hold to be satisfactory, but
which are secret.
