hibting the governor of New York from
granting lands within the present limits of
Vermont. The "New York controversy"
as 1t is called, grew out Of these counter
grants and the resistance Of the settlers
thereto, resulting, as Is well known, in the
independence of Vermont. wsllingfoId
and Shrewsbury were, so far as we now
recall, the only towns In the county dis
posed to submit TO the claims of New
York. We find under date Of June 10Th,
1879, in the minutes Of the council of New
York, an entry that tor Wallingford a
confirmation had not issued although
I" long since advised" and that on that day
duplication by petition" had been made
praying Confirmation" OF 3" Shews-
"bury" which was "advised to be granted
whenever his Majesty's Instructions will
"ship"-but we are not aware that these
combinations" were ever issued.
After the declaration of Independence of
Vermont January 10, 1777, the legislature
took the granting of charters into its own
hands, the first one being that Of Fair Haven,
October 81, 1779, which included also the
present town of West Haven, the division
being made and the latter town created by
act of the Legislature approved October 20,
1899. The second town to be granted was
Benson, October 81, 1910, although its
charter does not bear date until May fifth
of the following year. Then came Chit
tenden, March 10, 1850, to which n part
of Philadelphia was subsequently annexed
as already stated. Ira was granted in No
vember 1880, having been orgauized as a
township May 81. 1879, and known as ''the
+" district of Ira" as early a. September,
1777 Mendon was chartered us "Med-
way" February 90, 1881 "A; Parker's Gore
annexed thereto and its name changed tn
"Parkerstown" November z, 1904, and to
Mendon, November Q. 1927. Pittstield
was chartered July go, 1881, and Middle
town, October 90, 17S4-the laud for the
latter town being taken from Tinmouth.

considerable space in correcting small
error-our excuse being that there has never

of the charters of the Rutland county

cies in the communication which. we have

RUTLAND COUNTY CHARTERS.

We publish elsewhere, this morning, q
communication from Hiel Hoilister, the
historian of Pawlct, relative to the early
history of that town. The writer is in err
ror in the statement that Pawlet was char
tered " simultaneously" with Rupert and
Dorset and "a few days earlier than any
"other town in this county," Rupert and
Dorset, with four other towns. were char
tered by the governor of New Hampshire
August 90, 1851, six days earlier than Paw
let, while two charters were also granted of
towns IN Rutland county prior thereto.
The first town chartered in this county was
Philadelphia, March IA, 1861. This
town has ceased to exist, one-half of it be-
Ing annexed to Goshen November 8, 1914,
and the remainder OF it becoming a part Of
Chittenden November 2, 1916. Sherburne
was next chartered by the name of =" Kill
lington," it's charter bearing date July Z,
1861, forty-nine days prior to that of Paw
let. and its name being changed to Sher-
burne November 4, 1900. Dandy was
chartered August 9th, the day after Paw
let, and the next day, August es, came
that Of Mt. Tabor, then called 81 ar-
wicke," the name being altered to Mt. Ia
Dor in 1906. Then followed the charter of
Shrewsbury, September 4 Clarendon,
September 8; Rutland, September 7 ; Tin
mouth and Wells, September 10; Poult-
ney, September 81 Castleton, September

the most damaging fact-and it is a fact
grows out of his services in filling up the

He was chairman OF the committee of his
town chosen for the purpose of obtaining
recruits, and was authorized 10 pay a
bounty of two hundred dollars for each re-
cruit, 80 he made arrangements with a re-
cruiting officer to obtain men for him, the
officer to pay such bounty as he pleased
and the difference between the amount
paid and two hundred to be divided be-

divided, each of them making ''good

Of depressing the market to buy other shares

size, but SO brilliant and so delicately and
accurately represented that it seems as if one
might stoop and lift the petals one from an
other. Outside of this garland, and serving
as border to tee carpet, is wreath formed
of overlapping oak leaves and acorns, also
in natural colors, their various shades of

beauty. 1t is quite impossible to give an

RELEASE OF BARON BoILEAU.

THE INNOCENT Ae Mt OF FREMoN1's RAIL
ROAD SCHEME SECURES JUSTICE AT LAST.
A Paris correspondent writes: 81 am
happy to say that Baron Gsuldree- Boileau
has been pardoned by Marshal de MscMa-
hon. released from prison and rehebilitated
completely. 1t may be remembered that be
was included in the condemnations pro-
nouucsd against the authors ofthe trens-con-
tinental fraud or the affair OF the Memphis
Il El Paso railway, and sentenced to two
years imprisonment. 1 defended the baron
very warmly at tho time, for 1
saw clearly that he was the victim
an agent in it. He was sacrificed
by his brother-in-law, Fremont, who might,
1 believe, though i do not feel quite sure
upon this point, have saved him If he bad
been so disposed. Baron Boileau married
Miss Bsnton, who had a dowry amounting
TO 700 coo francs, which was in the hands of
Fremont. 1t was not paid until this Mem
phis e. FL Paso loan was put upon the
market, when Fremont handed over the
sum, and intrusted his brother-in-law with
some business relating TO the company. He

bad nothing to do with il when the crisis
came. No sooner had Baron Boileau heard
of the prosecutions, and learned that the
dowry of his wife had been paid him out OF
the sums subscribed by French bondhOlders,
then ne came at once 10 france ana
GAVE UP THE MONEY.
Suck an instance of probity should have
been recognized, but while the Judge COM
plimented Baron Boileau highly, it seemed
to have no effect upon his case, and he was
condemned with the rest. This was a judi
cial error which had the saddest of conse-
quences, for IL soon carried Mime. Gauldree-
Boilesu to the grave. Scarcely bad she
been placed in the tomb before came q
change in public feeling, and then followed
that usual sober second-thought upon the
barOn's case. He was found, on inquiry,
to be the victim of this great swlndle;
worthy of the great sympathy and efforts
were made TO procure his release.
No great efforts were required, however, for
| the governor was only too ready to act upon
the first petition. No sooner was he released
than he demanded a retraction from the men
who had illuminated him, and he has
already had two duels. In the first he dis

his sword and begin again, but, as he
showed some hesitation, the seconds inter
fered. The last duel was fought with pis-
tolls, the baron's adversary being slightly
wounded. Personally, 1 was very glad

A good joke, says the spirit of the Times, is
told of a wealthy New Yorker with an eye
for good horse, who, shortly after betaking
himself to his summer residence on Long
Island, in April last, was sitting on his piazza
one fine morning, and noticed pair of fine
steppers that were being driven on the road
in front of his house. The team consisted of
a bay and gray mare, and the driver was an
unassuming, quiet, well behaved young man.
The New Yorker noticed them on the follow
ing day, and was more than ever impressed
with their fine style and graceful step, and
he decided at once to buy them Accordingly,
on the next day stationed him self az MS
gate and when the team came jogging by he
signalled the driver TO stop. "rnat's pretty
fair team you drive, i" says he. eyes, they are
moderate good steppers," was the response.
'sAre they for sale? asked the New Yorker.
"Well, yes; / would sell them," was the
rather hesitating reply. "Send them along
down the road and back, so that can see
how they novel, says New Yorker. Up
and down they were sent few times, and
at last the gentleman seemed satisfied, and
signalled the driver to pull up. 81 like
them," says he, "pretty well, and will buy
them If the price is not too high, what do
you ask for them?" 'Sixty-ive thousand
dollars" was the reply, very coolly given.

in establishment, and Charley Green drove
