the narrower gauge, that could be con-
strueted and equipped at cost of from
$4,000 TO $4,000 per mile, would not fail
to find a universal welcome and adop-
ton, Even now the people in these Sec
tions are constructing and projecting
lines of narrow gauge roads, costing
from $4,000 to $4,000 mile. This
shows that they realize their great want,
But how much better it would be if they
could accomplish the end they have in
view at one-fourth to one-third the cost

project which Mr. Mansfield has worked

The Langmaid Murder.

Strong circumstantial evidence has
recently been developed against LaPagt
and the conviction is becoming preva
lent that he is the monster of both the
Ball and Langmaid murders. A short
time previous to the Indictment of La
Page he was visited by Mr.. Fowler Of
Pembroke, chairman of the Selectmen
and his young son, and identified as a
man who had worked for him threshing
short time before the murder of the
Langmaid girl. When LaPage was in
the house at tea, daughter of Mr.. Fow-
Ter came in and was observed by La
Page. After tea, while hitching up the
horse to go to the village, Mr. Fowler's
son was asked by the Frenchman who
the girl was, and on answering that she
was his sister, the boy was asked where
she came from The answer was /" from
school" and the academy on distant
elevation, was pointed out. The boy
and the Frenchman started towards the
village together, and on reaching the
point where the two roads branch off,
the Frenchman inquired which one the
scholars took in going to the academy,
and was told the new one.
The bushes along the road are very
thick, and scholars in passing had been
in the habit of springing out to brighten
each other. Shortly after his talk with
the Frenchman, as young Fowler was
going to school one day, he caught sight
of some one in the bushes, and shouted
out that he could not brighten him, On
the day of the murder Miss Fowler Just
before entering the woods, waited for
Josie Langmaid to come along, but a
neighbor coming along in a carriage,
she concluded that Josie had preceded
her, got in and rode to school, thus pro-
badly saving her life. 1t was probably
not ten minutes after this that the MUIR
der was committed LaPage was iden-
titled by the Fowler boy as the French
man who worked for his father and talk
ed with him.

National Thanksgiving.
A PROCLAMATION.

In accordance with a practice at once
wise and beautiful, we have been aecus,
toned, as the year is drawing to a close,
to devote an occasion TO the humble ex.
preston of our thanks to Almighty God
for the ceaseless and distinguished bene
fits bestowed upon us as a nation, and
for His mercies and protection during
the closing year, Amid the rich and
free enjoyment of all our advantages, we
should not forget the source from whence
they are derived and the extent of our
obligations to the Father of all mercies.
We have full reason to renew our thanks
to Almighty God for the favors bestowed
upon us during the past year. BY his
continuing mercy, civil aud religious lib
erty have been maintained, peace has
relgned within our borders, labor and
enterprise have produced their merited
rewards, and to His watchful providence
we are indebted to security from pesti-
lence and other national calamity.
Apart from national blessings each indi-
vidual among us has occasion to thought
fully recall and devoutly recognize the
tayors and protection which he has en-
joyed.
Now, therefore, /, Ulysses S, Grant,
President of the United States, do rec
ommend that, on THURSDAY, THE 25TH
DAY or NOVEMBER, the people Of the
United States, abstaining from all seeu-
lar pursuits and from their accustomed
avocations, do assemble in their respec-
tive places of worship, and, in such form
as may seem most appropriate in their
own hearts, offer to Almighty God their
acknowledgements and thanks for all
Ills mercies, and their humble prayers
for a continuance of His divine favor.
In witness whereof, | have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the Uni
ted States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington, this
9th day of October, in the year of
our Lord one thousand, eight hundred
and seyenty-fve, and of the indepen-
denee of the United States, the one
hundreth. U S. GRANT.

Mr.. B. 5. Barnard, of Manchester

Reading, in business letter to us, writes
word of the crops and stock raised
in that section which will interest many
of his old friends in Vermont. He says;
al have harvested 1900 bushels Of
small grain which is 200 less than last
year. Small grain is not so good a
yield as last year, wheat is blighted In
many places, though mine is an average
crop. | have rs acres to pick now and
will get 5000 bushels. Am feeding
80 hogs. 1t pays better to keep cows
and young cattle than to raise wheat,
| have MIXED % cows this summer and
sold the milk to the butter factory it
has averaged me s65 and $40 per month.
This month October keep the milk
at home and make butter 1t brings
me $40 a week. The farmers here are
rapidly getting into cows and blooded
stock. We will have as good show
here on stock as in Vermont in very few
years. Sheep are not raised very extern
sively, the prairie wolves are too numer-
Gus for the good of sheep, to which they
are very destructive"

DEMOCRATIC.

VIRGINIA.,
MISSISSIPPI,
MARYLAND
Massachusetts is herself again and
leads off by electing Rice, republican
for governor by some 5000 plurality
The republican gain in Boston on last
year is over 5000. In the first congress
sional district Crapo, republican is elect
ed by large majority, and the legisla-
ture is also largely republican.
The great surprise is New York, which
last year went democratic by 10000 ma
jority, and which it is now claimed has
elected the republican ticket. The re.
publicans appear to have the Legislature
sure, and if the official count should fin.
ally elect the democratic State ticket
the republican gains are so large they
will yet have all the prestige. In the
slaughter is included the Tammany dem
ocrats of New York city, who are routed
horse, foot and dragons.
Pennsylvania elects the republican
ticket by $4,000 to 10000 majority.
Last year it was democratic by 4679
majority.
Wisconsin is republican by 5000 ma
jority or more In less than half the
State the republican gain is over IL 900
on last year when the democrats and in
dependents had 1875 majority in the
State.
Minnesota, and New Jersey, are also re-
publican. Illinois he'd county elections
and Chicago gives nearly 5000 republi-
can majority. On the democratic side
we have Maryland, Mississippi and Vir-
ginia. 1t will be seen therefore, that as
compared with last year when the dem
ocrats were apparently sweeping all be-
fore them, the change in 1875 has been
very great.
