1t appears that some of the individuals
who attempted 70 raise riot and make a
martyr of Matt. Powers on Monday last,
were "spotted" at the time and are known
to the officers. -Four of them have been
arrested, and yesterday were brought be
fore the public tribunal for examination.
The names of the individuals arc Captain
John Haley, Ezra Dorrigan, l!0ratiO llaw-
kins and Charles f. Cutler. Haley was
bound over in the sum of $780, for his ap-
pearancc on Thursday next, and the re-
naming three were ordered to appear on
their own recognizancc on Monday morn
ing neXt. at nine o'clock, to answer to the
charge of riotous demonstrations, and of
throwing eggs, etc, at the person of said
Powers.

The Strike ON tho New York and
Canada Eaiiroud.

THE NEW LABORERs sTRAGGLING BACK.
Owing to the strike of the operatives on
the New York and Canada railroad a short
time since, the contractor went to New
York and gathered up some 800 or 400 men
to fill the places OF those refusing to work.
On Friday week about six car loads in all
arrived at Whitehall. 1t was found that
the old force had returned to work, and
the new force were not needed. They were
therefore turned loose and compelled by
want of work and fears of starvation to
find their way back as best they could,
without any help from the railroad author
tiles. Consequently they started on foot
to return, and every night the people along
the route are obliged to feed and find lodg-
ings for those of them who are thrown
upon the mercics of the public. This has
already proved itself TO be not only an ex-
pensive enterprise but an imposition which
cannot well be avoided. Already some fif-
teen or twenty have been provided for at a
cost to the town of Ballston of the same
number of dollars. Not less than 100 ar
rived at that place Thursday night expect
ing to be taken care of.

CoRREorloN.-In our report of the re-
marks of Mr.. A. L. Knapp at the slate
meeting held at Poultney on Saturday last,
an error of single word which crept into
our columns miscontrued the meaning of
that gentleman's remarks which we gladly
correct. Mr.. Knapp said that he had re-
ccved letter from Messrs. WILDER s. Co.,
of Boston, who gave it as their opinion that

of using il in trying to increase the TAXA

Rev. ID. c. Roberts of Brandon, preach
cd at Trinity church last evening to a large
and interested audience. The preacher
took for his text the words found in the
twelfth verse of the second chapter of Joel :
"Therefore also now, saith the Lord, turn
ye even TO me with all your heart, and with
fasting and with weeping and with MOURN
ing" He took up the importance of the
observance of Lent as season of fasting,
prayer and repcntancc-a time for sowing
The word of the Lord was sin united COM
pany and prayer" which was considered to
be of great benefit to all. Fasting was rea-
sonable and hcalthful and in its observance
we find how complete has the appetite
taken hold of our natures. 1t was also
considered as a time for reflection and me-
Citation upon our past misdeeds and a
stronger determination TO reduce our lives
to following more and more after the prn-
ciplcs of Christ, in manner of living and in
simplicity of daily life. The fact was also
given that the exceptional man did not save
society. God alone must save, and we must
come together and unite in weekday SER
vices as well as upon the Sabbath. Fru
gality must be observed with a sclf-sacri-
ficing point in view, giving Il direction TO
our spiritual welfare.

The Arrest of "Big Frank"
PnILADELpnIA. Feb. .

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. p.
About 10 o'clock yesterday morning, q
Wilmington man recognized big Frank"
entering lager beer saloon He went di-
rect to Alderman Jennings office and noti-
fed Constable Babe. who accompanied the
citizen to Bur's saloon, Eighteenth and
Sparswood streets, and there pointed out
the fugitive. Frank made no resistance,
and went quietly to the station house, where
he was subsequently identified by detec-
lives. He was in company with another
man when first seen on the street, but the
latter escaped Frank says his companion
was friend, who Was not interested at all
in the escape of the prisoner. He looks
very pale, and breads going back, saying
he is afraid of being mobbcd. At the sta
ton house he drank pint of whisky. He
has little to say regarding the escape, cX-
cept that the whole affair was planned
some days before, he and his companions
being in constant communication with
their friends through Frazier who had the
whole freedom of the yard. He characterized
the story of woman being in the case as
a piece of romance, but admits that women
called to see them in prison and had
brought them whisky. He says it was un-
fortunate for him to come to Philadelp ha,
but he thought that it would be the last
place the officers would look for him. He
further stated that the whole party came
up together on freight train and sep
arated IN West Philadelphia. The other
fugitives took an early train for New York.
He crossed at one of the upper bridges and
stepped in the northern section OF the city
last night. He strongly censures his
friends for not having place of conceal
mcnt prepared for him in Philadelphia.
Frank had 50 with him when arrested, and
says this was part of Sl5 given to him
when he got out of Jail, Each of the
fugitives, he says, received like amount.
1t now transpires that the man who was
seen in the company of big Frank" prior
to the arrest of the latter, was none other
than jim Hope. When the constable laid
hands on the former, Hope walked off and
! has not been seen since.

Lecture by President Buckham.


BRANDON, Feb. 27.
Rev. Matthew II. Buckham, President
of the university of Vermont, delivered a
lecture in Engel's hall, this evening, on
"the Phlistines of the nineteenth century
and was listened to with rapt attention by
a large audience. The hall was crowded
to its utmost capacity, and we believe some
were obliged to return home on account of
the crowd
Prof. j. s. Cillcy introduced the speaker
with reference to the closing of the
winter of the graded school, of which this
lecture was feature, and Mr.. Buckham
went over the whole ground of Philislin-
ism, terming it a spirit OF hardness, run
ming and depravity, illustrating this by the
meaning of the word in German, a mixture
of sausage, ham, sourkraut and lager beer.
1t means the sentiment that ham, sausage,
sourkraut and lager beer are all
that is worth living for OF the
American sentiment, keep all you get,
and get all you can" 1t means hard,
vulgar feeling 1t means what Napoleon
meant when he termed it an age Of chuck
sters.' 1t means what Burke meant when
he termed it an age of calculation. The
speaker defined it as worship of low kind
of common sense, without at all underrat-
ing the value of true common sense. The
definition was carried out in detail, show
ing the word Philstinism to mean every
thing opposed to a higher culture, such as
those who drift along, and those who hang
back against everything good and noble
that doesn't happen to seem TO them prac-
teal. The speaker proved that it is not
true that mental activity is unhealthy, as
some of these Philistnes claim, and stated
that mental workers are the longest lived
class, as can be proved by statistics Of
life insurance companies. College stu
dents are the most splendid set OF
fellows to be found, for physique.
Even farmers boys would come off second
best in comparison. In England it is rare
to find a townsman equal to a student. In
the late war there was no class superior
to the college student, for bravery and en-
durancc.
The modern Philstine loses sight of one
half the truth Mind is just as necessary
for a healthy body as the body is for Il
healthy mind The watchword is BE
practical" Modern Philistinism opposes
the existing means of education, aud sets up
our present thcaters, which are sensual
rather than ideal. The speaker then
touched upon pleasures in general, upon
happiness and beauty at home, and dwelt
upon Philistinism in religion, higher edu-
cation for women, etc etc, and congra-
tulated his hearers that the evil spirit was
waning. In closing he appealed to the
young men and women to beware The
Phlistines be upon thee"
The address was excellent, and in a fl-
ture issue we will give larger abstract.
