that arise from debt and any diminution of
patronage. This year of our national CEN
tennial should, and doubtless will, see 1t
supplied with an endowment fund of at
least $4,000, sum that conference and
its alumni should attempt to raise.
We add that the building is compact, in
good condition, and with its appurtenances
of library and apparatus, every way suited
to Its purposes as also TO the comfort,
esthetic culture and homelike feeling of all
Its inmates. The grounds are ample and
inviting for recreation and home supplies
The village is one the beauties of western
Vermont, healthful, and easily accessible.
The community amid the institute is locat-
ed, is unsurpassed for general intelligence,
morality, sociality, and, what is particular
ly favorable, for feeling of friendship for
all its interests. By some formal and def
mite action, such as is now being made to
bind the western New York conference
seminary to the Syracuse university, should
this become feeder of the Wesleyan at
Middetown. A suggestion of the financial
agent that $4,000 be raised by the friends
of the university for the special purpose OF
aiding INDECENT young men who shall here
prepare for the Wesleyan, is well worth
consideration and should be pushed, as
soon as may be, to its accomplishment.

First Train between Portland and
Johnson.

The first through tram over the Portland
and Ogdensburg railroad, between John
son, VT. and Portland, Me-, left Johnson
on Wednesday morning, connecting at st.
Johnsbury at 9.20, and Lunenburg, on the
Connecticut river, at 10. 10 a. m. Between
the latter point and the Fabyan house, in
Carroll, N. H., the trains run on the track
of the Boston, Concord and Montreal rail-
road, under contract recently entered
into by the two corporations. Large
crowds were gathered at the stations along
the route to greet the train as it passed.
On board were Hon. Horace Fairbanks,
president of the Vermont division w. II.
Bryant, general agent Hon. Calvin Nor
rill, Hon. j. d. Bell, Col. A. B. Jewett,
Messrs. Off Abel, d. d.. Weed, John II.
George, s. s. Gould, directors, and others
connected with the construction and man
agement of the road. The opening of this
connecting link of the Portland and Og-
densburg road, thus forming a trunk line
between Portland the west, is regarded as
an important auxiliary to the business in
terests of this region.
A ut. Johnsbury special to the Portland
Press says the first train to st. Johnsbury
over the Portland and Ogdensburg railroad
met the city government of Portland and
railroad officials, and arrived at st. Johns
bury at 4.45 p. m. The party were met
at the Fabyan house by the officers of the
western division of the road, and on arrlv-
ing at st. Johnsbury were received by the
citizens, and took up their quarters at the
st. Johnsbury hotel In the evening re-
ception was given them in the hotel par
Tors.

George II. Pendleton, the democratic
candidate for vice president on what the
Golden Rule calls the ''sulphuric-acid.a
" milk" platform of 1864, has been giving
his opinion on the proper course for the
party to pursue in the next presidential
canvass, and lays down financial plat
form, on which, il the party are thorough
ely united" they can, he thinks, carry
the country next fall. He says that the
party can meet on "common grounds" and
carry the elections on "plank recogniz-
4" ing the necessity of a return to specie
basis and promising to lead the country
I" to such basis as soon as it could be
" reached naturally" This is better ex-
pressed and more neatly diluted than Hen
bricks platform in favor of specie pay
ments but opposed its resumption, and it
ought to assure Pendleton's promotion to
The first place on the democratic ticket.
He is used TO defeat, and could take it as
easily on milk and water platform as on
"sulphuric- acid-nnd- milk" one.

The New York Herald calls attention to
the howls made by the democratic press
because, two years ago, he appointed Cen
eral Garfield and Mr.. Kelley on important
committees how they referred to it as an
approval of their Credit Mobilier specula-
tions and how righteously indignant they
became over, what they were pleased to
call, this "offlcial Endorsement of corrup-
" tion." In view of the fact that! Kerr, the
democratic speaker-elected because he
was "the only honest man available for the
"place has appointed these same gen.
tlemen to the committee ON ways and
means, it awaits the comments of the
World and other democratic newspapers
upon "this extraordinary defiance of DEM
" ocratic honesty" Will the "only

The action of the Roman Catholic arch
bishop.ofiPhiladelphia,in communicating
the members of the "Ancient Order of
" Hibernians," known in Pennsylvania as
"Molly Maguires" and notorious for the
number Of murders, robberies and other
outrages committed by them, will com
mend itself to general approval. Whatever
may be thought of the pretensions of that
church in other directions, it certainly has
the right and power to prescribe conditions
for membership and for being admitted into
its communion; and however rigid its
rules may be in this respect, 1t must be
confessed that they are usually on the side
of law and good order. We understand
that this accommodated body has no con-
necton with an organization under sim
liar name, existing in Vermont, and we
trust that our understanding of the matter
is correct.

THE WAYS AND MEANS CHAIRMAN

Washington kilograms say that William
r. Morrison of Illinois, the chairman of
the house committee on ways and means,
is "far from being hard money man."
and that he favors the extinction of the ma
tional banks and the substitution of green
backs-legal tenders-for national bank
bills. That he is far from being hard
money man is told as if it was a new dis
election was chroncled as hard money
triumph, 1t is not to be wondered at. An
examination of his financial record, how
ever, would disclose the fact that he not
only was not "sound," but that he was a
"trimmer" and that he stands on the plat
form laid down by Pendleton. On the six
financial questions acted upon by the last
congress, his record is as follows On q
buncombe resolution, proposing no legis-
lation, he voted against initiation. He
voted against the decentralization COM
promise initiation blll--and so did such in
fationists as Kelley and Butler because it
did not go far enough, SO it IS difficult to
tell exactly where he did stand in the mat
ter. On the four other questions, he
lodged three times and voted for initiation
once the whole record being summed
up as follows: For initiation once, against
initiation once, doubtful once, lodged three
times. If it were necessary TO look for
reasons, here would be cause enough for
his appointment, as his "record" correctly
represents the position of the democratic
party on the financial question but we
are free to say that we do not believe his
opinion on the matter was once thought OF
the voted for Kerr" and that vote made
him chairman of the committee.

The New York Herald gives brief

The New York Herald gives brief
sketches of " the immortal eighteen
who voted in favor of third term, with
an attempt at explaining the reason of
their votes. AS to Dudley G. Denison, it
says; " AS his constituents regard the
" common school system as essential to
present, if not future, salvation and
" Grant as the prophet, his vote is easily
" understood" 1t is true that the voters
of the second congressional district, as well
as of Vermont, regard the common school
system as essential to the integrity of our
free institutions, but they are far from be-
lleving that Grant is its prophet or is ne
cessary for its preservation, and they do
not find Denison's vote easy to understand.
However 1t may be with Denison and the
80. A. U.s." the people of Vermont do
not banker after third term and have,
already, had their fill of Grant and, we
opine, of Denison too.

A clerk in the interior department,
whose bread and butter depends on the
favor of lack Chandler, writes to YER
mont newspaper, owned and controlled by
a postmaster, in reference to Postmaster
General Jewell, as follows: "The role of
"a reformer, which he has vainly endeav-
"ored to ill since his accession to the
cabinet, has not fitted him, and it is no
"injustice to say that his star is rapidly
waning" Significant, not only of the
opinion of the head of the interior depart
ment, but, also, of the way in which GER
tain postmasters regard him and of what
hey hope for him in the near future.

1t is said that the carpet bag delegation

tial succession between a third term and
Morton. Since the adoption of the anti
third term resolution by congress, how
ever, and Morton's proposition to ''investi-
agate" the Mississippi legislature, Morton
stock is on the rise, but, then, as the Times
says, the south don't yet rule the nation
and, we might add, the carpet baggers can
not control the republican nomination.
