A DANDY AT TIE GALLows.--Ihe
FIRST Earl of Holland was a great
dandy, who played prominent and
not altogether reputable part in the
history Of his time. He was IA
vorite at the Courts of James |. and
Charles | but when the civil war
broke out, he at first sided with the
Parliament against the King. In an
un!ucky hour he went over to the
Royalist side, took up arms against
the Commonwealth, was defeated,
made prisoner, put to trial, and duly
sentenced to lose his head. He ap-
reared on the scahold in white satin
vest and cap, trimmed with silver
lace. His costly garments were the
lawful perquisites of the executioner,
to whom he said, as he approached
the block. "Here, my friend, LET
my tody and clothes alone. There
Ten pounds for thee; that is better
than my clothes, am sure. And
when you take up my head, do not
take off NY cap" "Stay, while |
give the sign" After orief prayer
he stretched out his hand, saying,
"Now, now T. The word had hardly
left his lips when the axe fell, and
the head was severed from the body
at a single stroke.

-Tiamps still continue TO command at
tenlon. Recently several Of them stopped
a cracker pedlar in the north part of the
town with a demand for food AFTER being
supplied they made a further demand for
money with the intimation that If it was
not forthcoming force would be used. But,
with the help of his dog and a vigorous
use of his whip, the pcdlar escaped. Self
defence is Heavens first law, or if it isn't
it ought 10 be, and when such scenes as
this occur in quiet town like Westmore-
land the pistol and not whips should be
used, and used in manner that would
thin out some Of this thieving crew.
Something that "means business" ought to
be done soon, for, as one paper expresses
it, Fan ounce Of prevention is worth a
pound of cure, especially if that ounce is
lead"
The Universalists Of Westmoreand
and Chesterfield held picnic at Spoflord's
lake on Saturday last. A good crowd, a
good time, and, for 4 wonder, = good day,
made everything pass of pleasantly, as it
always does when this society manages
things. Wonder if the CLERK of the wealth
err hasn't been having a "reunion" or
something Of that sort for u month or so?

Affairs have come 10 a singular pass,
says the Boston Journal, when three whole
counties in prosperous and presumably
well governed State like Illinois can be
held in terror, for weeks at time, by
gangs oforganized outlaws. Yet this is the
precise condition of things in Williamson,
Fra nklin and Jackson counties in that
State. Open outrage and midnight assassi-
nation have become the natural order of
things; and The mere offence of mention
ing with disapprov al these deeds of vio-
lence has been visited with death. The
Sheriff of Williamson county, where the
troubles originated, admits that the people
are afraid to speak out in condemnation of
the vendetta waged theie, for fear of the as
sas sins and adds that the murderers are
known, and sufficient proof could be easily
obtained TO hang them; but neither he nor
any other man in The county dares to try
TO catch them. Nevertheless he declined
the tender of troops, and appears perfectly
content 10 have the people in his county
20 on killing enc another without him
drance, so long as he keeps out of harms
way. The Sheriff of Franklin county is
made of different stuff, he has organized an
efficient posse and is meeting them on
their own ground and with their own
weapons, and war to the death between
ruffia nism on one side and law on the 9TH
er, is going on in that county. In Jackson
county the citizens have organized vigil
lance committee and are hunting down the
desperadoes with an energy that is highly
creditable.
The three counties infested by these out
laws lie in that section of Illinois which
has gained the suggestive title of Egypt"
in recognition of the moral darkness prev
alent therein. They are scantily settled,
containing no large towns, and haN ing al
together oIulation of barely fifty thou
sand. The people residing in them are
nearly all native Americans, and the cause
of the lawlessness cannot be ascribed TO
any antipathies of race or nationality. Mel
ther has politics anything to do with it. 1t
originates primarily in feud which has
been relentlessly waged for years between
the Bulliners, Hendersons, Russells and
other families, and which has drawn under
IFS malignant influences quite a number
OF the citizens of the county, who in one
way or another have got mixed up in it.
This vendetta has been carried on by muir
der and assassination for years without the
interference of the law. Gradually the
lawlessness has spread, and rufians in that
and other counties have taken advantage
of the immunity from punishment granted
to these murderers 10 organize a species of
Ku-Klux. They so about at night in arm
ed bands Ofseveral scores or hundreds, dis
guised with masks and sheets. Murder
and robbery are their pastime, and their
crimes are as barbarous as they are unpro-
yoked. In one county alone they are said
to number four hundred. If Governor
Beveridge had not been singularly de6ci-
ent in the important element of back bonef
the military force OF the State would long
ago have been put in requisition to stamp
out this outlawry and exterminate the ruff
fans who perpetrate these crimes.

M. Edtor:-I noticed in your paper of
Aug. 18Th an article stating that "Three cit
liens of Putnsy passed through portion
of our town, ostensibly bound for Dunn
merston dep OF. On their return one Of
them carr led a bottle openly and unabash-
ed, while all evidently carried its contents"
etc. Ed Ward, are they the ones that went
over TO whip Mr. Wy about the fence?
"Ir it affects IN en- thus to visit Dummer-
ston depot, hadn't the superintendent of
the VT. Valley II. II. better look into the
matter a little?" Now if Ed Ward in
tends TO have people understand am en-
gagged in the liquor traffic he states that
which is false, and that which he well
knows is false. Now in my opinion he
means, by his cowardly attacks upon peo-
pie through the columns of the paper to
lead PEG pie 10 believet that which he and all
of my neighbors, and also the officers of
the rail road, know TO be unjust lies. If
Ed Ward has anything against me or my
neighbors, let him come TO me or them
like a man and make his grievances known
not sneak around in the rear and come
out with some little mean falsehoOd against
a ne ighbor. Show some courage. Sign
your right name, Mr.. Cole; tell people
who and what you are, or l will.

SOUTHERN SENTIMENTAL Jefferson Da-
Wis had been permitted 10 speak at the Win
nebago (Ill.) county fair, this is the mes
sage the Memphis Avalanche would have
liked to have him delivers
"If he says in substance to the Northern
people that he has and does acknowledge
the results of the war that he and our peo-
pie do not hope by any specious sophistry
or special pleading to reduce those results
to merely technical form; that he and we
do heartily consent 10 the doctrine that
these United States are and shall forever
he one great nation paramount in authori-
ty; that the South surrenders the dogma
of State sovereignty, and will not consent
to its assertion by any State that he con-
sents to and approves this as an article in
the unwritten treaty of peace and reconcile
alton between the North and Soulful he
does this he will put the cap-stone on the
unfinished arch OF peace which spans the
space between Bunker Hill and Fort Sum
ter"
Quite different in tone is this paragraph
from the Columbus (Ga.) Times, sheet
which evidently represents the unrecon-
cied element of the Soulh:-
Except TO hang our leaders and butcher
our women and children, what could the
enemy have done that they have left un-
done? What hidden thunder still chain.
ed in the vast stoTehou e of hellish North
ern invention, has not yet beched forth up
on usH What refinement of cowardice and
cruelty has not spent its force upon us, and
into what depth OF humiliation have we no;
been plunged? What odious enactment
has been swept from the statute book, and
what material loss has been or gives prom
Use of being repaid?"

A man named BRISTOL, attached to
Coles circus, assembled in hot-air balloon
at Bellows Falls last Friday. The unman-
ageabe machine descended in the middle
of the Connecticut river, just above the
falls. Bristol jumped ont when within
twelve feet Of the water and swan TO the
shore. In another moment the balloon was
dashed over the falls shapeless mass. The
balloon was fished ashore in very dam
aged condition. Bristol sustained no other
damage than sprained ankle. IIot-ar
balloons are dangerous things, as their de-
scent cannot be controlled. IT. France
their use is prohibited.

THE CRoPs.-It would appear that
careful review of the reports received at
the Agricultural Department from all parts
of the country since the recent heavy rains
does not warrant the apprehensions which
were at first entertained respecting the
crops. Indeed, it may be fairly inferred
that the actual state of the case is really
more reassuring than the encouraging fig
ures Of the Department, as no doubt the
parties who forwarded the data from vari-
Gus localities were somewhat influenced
by the gloomy iorebOdings of those from
whom they obtained the information. Yet
the estimates are cheering. Corn is about
ninety six per cent. of an average yield in
spite of grasshopper, worm and flood. Oats
will yield largely, rs they lave not been
exposed to some of the drawback which
corn had TO endure. The Colorado beetle
has abated its voracious habits, or what il
more likely, farmers have learned to adopt
more effective treatment of this pest, as the
potato crop generally will he large. Bar
ley will equal the average production. In
Kentucky the staple crops will yield a
handsome return. Virginia is said TO be
three per cent, below the average, but
Maryland is set down at only one per cent.
below the usual return. Wool everywhere
has been more than ordinarily abundant.
So far, then, there is no ground for COM
plant, but rather for thank fulness. The
earth has brought forth plenteously, and
we shall in month or so be ready to send
our surplus production to other countries
not so abundantly supplied. With careful
and prudent management an excellent
trade may he inaugurated in the fall.

On Tuesday morning of this week the LIST
regiment Vermont National Guard COM
menced a five days encampment at this
place. The camp is knownas scamp Asa
hel Peck" and the site chosen is on the OPP
posite side of the gulf, and somewhat nearer
the village than that occupied by the veter-
ans at their reunion last week. Two of
the companies arrived on Monday Alter
noon and the remainder came on the early
trains Tuesday morning. The following is
the roster of the field and staff oflicers:-
Colonel-T. S. Peck, Burlington.
Lieut.. Colonel-W. l.. Greenlear Wi
nooski.
Senior Major-D. Martin, Middebury.
Junior Major-Carlos w. Carr, Brandon.

Quarternlaster-Willi Smith, Burling-
ton.
Commissary-S. l.. Weston, Burlington.
Surgeon-J. b. Champion, Winooski.
Assistant urgeon-Charles z. Thayer,

The companies, with their captains and
order of encampment, are as follows:-
Co. d, st. Adams, Captain John w. New
ton.
Co. b, st. Adams, Captain I. n. Culver.
Co. Il, Burlington, Captain Ira Flana-

All the companies, with the exception of
II and l., reported with full ranks of 81
men each on Wednesday morning. The
encampment comprises about $50 tents,
and faces the east, with headquarters
tents in the rear. The camp presents an
orderly and soldierly appearance and the
discipline is very strict. \ high compl-
ment was paid the regiment on Tuesday
evening in the statement by experienced
officers that its appearance at dress parade
on that evening was finer than at any pre-
vious encampment. On Wednesday morn
ing after the battalion drill the regiment
was reviewed by Col. Hooker of New York,
Col. Parsons Of Northampton, Mass, and
Coils. Goodhue and Miles of Brattleboro.
Great satisfaction was expressed with the
efficiency shown, and the evolutions of
Fuller Battery in particular called forth
the highest praise. A very large number
of spectators witnessed the battalion drill
Wednesday afternoon and the dress parade
at G o'clock. The Brattleboro Cornet Band,
p pieces strong, is gaining for itself high
reputation on this occasion.
To-day Thursday is the great field day
of the encampment. At 10 o'clock COM
panies d, L, f, and l, marched down TO
the street and escorted Gov. Peck 10 camp.
AT p. m. the regiment will be reviewed by
Gov. Peck, and the attendance promises TO
be very large. AT noon Capt. Estey gives
a dinner 10 the governor, regimental Off
GERS, and the honorary members Of his
company.
