A Day on Grand View Mountain.

We made another tour to this justly cele
brated look out. The road from Middle
bury to this mountain runs nearly west,
and the scenery on all sides is beautiful
The wooded ridges, the green meadows,
the heavily laden cultivated fields, the or
chards at this time of the year heavily la.
den with fruit, the cattle upon thousand
hills are all objects to be admired. The eye
never tires to look at the varied objects
that you encounter. AS you leave the road
running from Vergennes to Bridpori, on
the west side of Snake mountain, you pass
through pastures into the old forests, over
running brooks, up sharp, gravelly hills, em-
powered overhead with thick, overhanging
branches, until at last you pass the moss
covered pond, where, if you attempt to
cross, you will find your situation to be
like some financial corporations, rather
shaky. We pass on over the bridge near
the mill, covering dark, siagnant pool,
where mud turtles and tadpoles revcl. We
then begin again 10 ascend over a good
wagon road, and soon arrive ut the Tip top
house, situated upon the highest SUNNI. of
snake mountain.
Hon. jonas Ii. Smith, the proprietor
has expended more than thousand dollars
in making road to the summit He has
also erected large and pleasant house for
the accommodation of visitors. Stables
with hay and grain will be furnished TO all
who visit this mountain at reasonable rates.
here has been great number of visitors
this season to this noted place. The obser-
vatory is 20 feet high, Is feet in diameter
at base, and commands view of so or 100
miles north and south, and is only limited
on the west by the broken and disconnect-
ed range of the Adirondacks, and on the
east by the bold and connected range of
the Green Mountains. The prominent
| points in this view are Lake George in the
south, glstening like mirror, old
Whiteface mountain, in the west. and
ut The north the broad lake off
against Burlington. Then at the north
east you can see Mount Mansfield, lying
there in silent grandeur as if asleep, aud
away this side, nearly in the same line,
Cancels Hump starts up to view and on
the east Ta'er hill looms up with lis bald
head, and father south Bread Loaf. with
its level top and sloping ends, completes

II would be- had enough Il we had any

1t would be bad enough If we had any
reason to expect or hope that this applaud
ing of murder would stop with the killing
of tramps, but experience teaches US that
one act of lawlessness leads TO another and
that in each succeeding act the degree of
lawlessness Is increased. We saw this in
the result of the applause that greeted the
assassination of Key by Sickles and the ac-
quittal of the murderer. We saw the PEG.
pie justify ing and applauding every act of
murder, no matter how brutal and cold
blooded 1t might have been, II 30 be 1t had
its foundation In some real or faDcied
grievance on the part of the murdered man.
We cannot have forgotten the saturnalia of
blood that followed, aud how when Fisk
was slain the people justified by saying
that be had lived the life of reprobate
and 1t was fit that he should die the death
of dog-just as they now say in reference
to this poor, miserable, unknown New
Hampshire tramp. By justifying or, even,
winking at these acts, we SOW bloody in
structiou which, 10 time. will surely return
to plague the inventors. A mere theft or
burglary will moi, cannot, justify the taking
of human life We can If we will protect
ourselves against tramps. We may expect
that the number of these vagabonds will ill.,
crease as the cold weather approaches,
don't let US invite their Wholesale slaughter.
We expect that the proper protection of
the community from these vagabonds and
wanderers on the face of the earth will
cost something but what are the few pal
try cents or dollars of additional taxation
in comparison with the taking of human
life, the fostering of sentiment in the
community that the killing of human be-
ing, even tramp. is of little consequence
We are not surprised that this tramp was
killed, we wonder not that newspapers ap.
newspapers melted the people to the muir
der of tramps? Did they not. last winter,
endeavor TO make heir murder the only
protection the community could have
against these vagriuts? Examine the files
of Vermont newspapers of December and
January last, and see them, dav after day,
and week after week, urging upon the leg
islature to repeal our vagrant lava law
which affords summary protection against
the depreciation of tramps, and the only
law which does-because, f)rsooth, it en-
tailed an expense on the state. in that il
might add to the number of persons con.
fined in our jails and IN the reform school,

not weak enough to respond In their ap
peals, and the law remaius. Let it not re-

Alden Goldsmith's Nerve.

The Roundout Freeman says. son
Monday forenoon last number OF trotters
were being exercised ut the driving park,
among them Ellie Dean, driven by the
well known horse raiser, Alden Goldsmith.
The horses were trotting at lively pace
and were all punched in heap, when one
of Eflles reins broke, and Goldsmith top
pied over backward, and every spectator
expected to see him drop from the sulky
and be mangled by The feet Of the crowd
of horses behind. This tragedy WAS pre-
vented, however, for Goldsmith, whose
feet caught in the front rests of the thlls,
recovered himself and then gave an exhi-
bition of nerve that was most thrilling.
The mare, released from the restraint OF
the taut reins, broke into run and flew
ahead like the wind leaving all the others
behind. While she was going at this rate
Goldsmith crawle1 over her back until
by reaching forward he could get hold of
the snaille of the bit, aud then lying upon
her neck, he brought her up with a sudden
pull that carried her almost perpendicular
ly in the air. lie was heartily npplauded
by all who witnessed the daring deed"

Postal Cards.

Although the postof1ice department does
things on a magnificent scale 80 far as es-
tabishing fast mail trains is concerned and
IN letting mail routes at fabulous prices to
ring contractors, it is capable of descend
ing to very small transactions when deal
ing with the people. For instance. "A rule
has been established that if anything what
ever except an address is written or printed
upon the side of postal card intended for
the address, it renders the card unavailable,
unless prepaid at the regular letter rate If,
of a local postmaster the card should be
forwarded To its destination without such
prepayment, it is charged with double
rates. An announcement to this effect has
just been put forth from Washington in
consequence of numerous complaints which
have been received at the department. In
one case Chicago firm complained that
six cents extra postage had been charged
on card because on the luwer left-hand
corner Of its face the date ''Sept, 13. 1875"
WAS written. In this instance the Chicago
firm had the satisfaction of being informed
that they were entitled Ia q rebate Of one
cent, as the postmaster should have given
them credit for The original t1ost of the
card. and collected only five cents extra
for the date. Probably not one man in ten
ten thousand has ever heard of this rule,
and thousands of postal cards have doubt
less failed TO reach their destination in con
sequence of ito enforcement.-N. y. tnn.

A economical administration of the 60

A economical administration of the gov
eminent is what we have all been demand
ing, and Postmaster General Jewell is do
ing his part toward giving it to US. He
has, during the past year, carried on re-
lentless and unceasing war against dis
honest mail contractors and peculating
postmasters, and yet has not failed to cut
off all extravagances, all needless expense,
and his balance sheet shows the result.
For the year ending June Both, the ex-
penses of the depai tment have decreased
torty-eight thousand eight hundred and
eighty-six dollars from those Of the pre-
vious year. A falling off of nearly fifty
thousand a year, in these days of extrava-
gauce and general corruption, is not bad
showing, but it appears all the better. when
it Is stated that with the exception of q
single year-and that as long ago as Amos
Kendall was postmaster-general-every
year since the establishment of the depart
ment has shown an increase of expenses
over those of the preceding year.

The Boston Pilot takes sensible view
of the adoption of the New Jersey consti-
tutional amendment requiring the taxation
of church property. 1t says: If the
" Methodists, Bsptists, and other large
{" sects, can stand the taxation Of churches
- the Catholics can. We do not receive
:. the hardest blow by any means Silly
{: people have cut off their own noses be-
" fore to-day Let them cut" And the
fact is that the amendment was adopted by
the cutting off noses process. Soon after
it was proposed, meeting of Methodist
ministers was held-and other Protestant
denominations followed the example-and
it was voted to oppose the amendment.
But when the Catholic priesthood followed
the example and instructed the members
of their flock to do likewise, the "great
/" Protestant sentiment" of New Jersey
was aroused, and so they voted for and
carried the amendment, cutting off their
own noses that they might have a cut at
the Catholic nose-and in the cutting pro-
cess the public got their just dues.

"A TRAMP GETS HIS DESERTS

The tramp question has assumed a sud-
den and fearful importance. p AT Pier
point, Just over the line of Vermont in
New Hampshire, Monday night, a tramp,
whose name remains unknown, entered the
room of a man named Getting and, with
revolver in hand, demanded "his money or
his life" Getting pointed out q place
where money was to be found, and as the
tramp laid aside his revolver to obtain it,
Getting picked up the pistol and shot the
tramp to death. We have embodied,
above, all that is known of the affair, and,
probably, full and detailed account OF the
transaction, with all the circumstances at
tending it, would only result in making
the matter little more sensational with
out adding one iota TO the real and impor-
tant facts of the case. From the facts, as
given, it does not appear that there was
any necessity for taking human life, yet we
apprehend that the general verdict of the
country will be "served him right" or, as
we see the telegram headed in Thursdays
evening journals, "a tramp gets his des-
''erts." 1t may be that this particular tramp
''got his deserts" that the world is we'll
rid of him, that even he is saved from flu
turs crimes and sufferings, but the fact
after all remains that human life has
been needlessly sacrificed.
And yet, as we have said, the general
verdict will be that the tramp only got his
deserts and that Getting served him right.
The example will do more than this. 1t
will be an example 10 others to treat other
tramps in a similar way. The community
will applaud the man who takes the law
into his own hands and who, 10 save few
paltry dollars, needessly takes a mans
life. People will not stop to ask whether
Cottlng's life was in danger. whether he
had any reason to fear bodily harm, or to
ask ary of those questions to which the
law requires reasonable answer before
holding homicide to be justifiable, but
they will approve, justify and applaud the
act. We have no sympathy for this mis-
cradle tramp and have no tears to shed for
his taking of, but We do regret bis death,
because we deplore that state of society
which will justify his killing for no other
reason than that he was "tramp," poor
miserable, unknown tramp. 1t lisa fearful
thing to take the law into ones own hand
and constitute oneself accuser, Judge, jury
and executioner, and yet this is what Colt
ing did, and yet the country approve, JUS
tify and applaud.

confines himself to the financial and
"bleody shirt" business-and the result can
be discounted if he continues. He may be
sound on the finances, but, the truth Is,
sensible persons find it hard to decide
which will be the worse for the country, a
deprecated currency or continued military
interference in southern affairs, aud of the
two are rather inclined to risk the former
as a choice of evils. .r.se,.

that the repeal of the law requiring the
