Letter from New Hampshire.

To TIKI VERMONT FARMER: The New
Highlander who became intolerably homesiok
on the western prairie because there was
nothing on the stretch OF monotonous level
upon which to rest his eye would have been
quite satisfied with the surroundings of
Lancaster. The oppressive sensation Of the
presence of the limitless, is even more bur-
densome than the confinement Of narrow
walls. Here, in this world within q world,
in the bosom of New England mountains, the
eye finds room 10 wander over q varied and
pleasing landscape, and a restlng-plRce upon
the seat Of the clouds. To those who can
lind nothing to praise except the mysterious

imposing. To all who admire aud love a
simple, uDpretending grandeur Of landscape,
nothing could be more inviting than the view
from this pleasant vale. Approached from

Grange Degrees.

1t is always a delicate matter to defend a
secret society from the malicious attacks Of
its enemies, for several reasons. There are
som things that cannot be properly told.
Others can be told, yet an outsider can only
judge Of their correctness from the reputa-
ton Of the speaker. l venture to say, how
ever, that "a Granger" from Ludlow, makes
several assertions that the facts will not sus.
tain and l regret that any paper publishes
them that pretends to be friendly to the
Patrons.
First, he says that Bro. j. knows
that the two hundred oranges elect new
masters annually and that they and theil
wives add four hundred to the members Of
the State Grange every year. The truth il
"The Vermont State Grange is composed Of
the masters of subordinate oranges and theil
wives who are matroRs, and no past master
substitute, fourth degree member, or genera
deputy can speak, vote, or receive pay - sc
at the elections there is no addition to the
membership.
Second, he says Bro. j. knows that i
takes a whole day to confer the fifth degree

on a large crowd, l judge one hundred anC
fifty, after nine o'clock one evening in Bish
ops Hall at Montpelier.
Then he asks what did the Nationa
Grange do2 ut recommended to Congress
the building of another Pacific railroad.
Here is the resolution that they passed, from
page 81 of the proceedings Of the NatiOna
Grange;
Resolved, That this National Grange earnestly Il

The Beauties Of Bankruptcy.


A man in this county became involved
in debts and his creditors recently put him
into bankruptcy. His liabilities that were
subject 10 adjudication in the bankrupt
court we're about $4,000 and his assets not
more than $4,000. Seeing that the estate
could not pay much, the creditors all uni.
ted 10 an agreement, Immediately after the
petition had been filed, to take the case out
Of court and settle it themselves. Conse-
queutly nothing was done in court but just
to enter the petition, give notice to the
creditors, refer the application to take the
case out again 10 the clerk as a master, and
pass an order to that effect, the whole of
which was merely formal aud took but a few
minutes time aud involved only one journey
from Burlington to st. Adams. The costs
were taken as follows
Clerks fees S35.O5.
Masters fees 1000.
Marshal's fees 22.O6.
Atty's fees 1850.
Registers fees ~. 90.
Total Sll4,6l.
When the creditors agreed with the bank
rupt to take the case out Of court, they
made him q certain allowance, in consid-
Grafton of which he promised to pay his
attorneys in the bankrupt proceeding and
did settle with them for SIS. 1t is said
that they had done nothing but to make
one journey to Burlington to file the petit
ton and to give him a little advice. They
having thus been paid, and literally, by
him, the question is, who has the S27,5 80
taxed as attorneys fees in the bill of costs,
and what was it for
This case is of public interest only as
showing how estates melt away in bank
rnptcy. If it were isolated or exceptional
il would not be worthy OF mention, but as
there is so much bankruptcy now, it is not
strange that men should enquire "What is
the use in trying to collect a debit One
may as well give it to his debtor as L
officers and attorneys, for If it costs nearly
two hundred dollars just to enter the court
how much can he expect to have left If he
goes through ?"-St. Adams Messenger.

The great revival, though larger in St.
Johnsbury than elsewhere in the state, is by
no means confined to one place. The
" Boston brethren " were at Burlington last
Sunday, and from there went to Ludlow,
where probably the interest has been greatest
outside Of st. Johnsbury. At Ludlow the
Baptists predominant, numbering about as
many as the Methodists and Congregational
lists combined, but all are working in Harmony,
especially since the attacks of the Ludlow
Gazette, and a great work is being done.
There is to be a great outdoor meeting there
on the second, third, and fourth Of July,
Judging from the surprising catalogue Of
murders, outrages and rebberies which for the
past year have blackened the hitherto fair
record Of Vermont, this revival of religious
feeling has come none to soon, and can last
none too long.

For the VERMONT FARurR.
THE WHEAT.


Through the summer sunshine sweet
Clambered hevenward the wheat,
Finding ladders In the showers,
Making stepetenes OF the hours,
Whispering, as the days few by,
Sometime we shall reach the sky.''
When the day came creeping forth
Ger the hill-tops Of the earth,
And the lark on rapturOus w1nEs
Climbed the sunbeams' slender strings,
On the wheat his shadow lay,
TIL II dwindlsd quite away,
Then n joyous rustic spread
Through the wheat with breezy tread,
Till II seemed as though the morn
In n bed Of SMILES was born,
Where the sunbeams ZANE TO lie,
From their touches In the sky.
"This is heaven" tho breezes said,
As they rocked tho sunbeams' bed
But the wheat made sad reply,
This Is heaven, hut not the sky
Where the Joyous lark has gone,
Up the pathway Of the SUM-
Day by day the longing wheat
Clambered through the sunshine sweet,
Nearer heavens depthless sea,
With lis shores Of mystery,
Till In sheaves Of harvest gold,
Loi thoy felt their heaven unfold.

"Under his control the Farmer, which in
Vermont is still THE Farmer, (being the

to under that name when no other is speci-

A. r. Hovey, of East st. Johnsbury, has
kept a dairy ~tNenty-eight years, and in that
time has made about iorty.four tons Of but
ter, using the small pans. In doing so he
estimates the travelling done by himself and
his wife, in that time would amount to a
trip twice and a half around the world.
This spring he made up his mind to try one
of the new-fashioned large pans and had a
set of the compartment pans, manufactured
by W. o. Campbell & Co., of Richford, put
in by the agent, Mr.. A. B. Carpenter. He
says he finds it better than he expected,
1t saves more than half an hours time and a
good deal of lifting in taking off the cream,
and on the whole saves fully three-quarters
of the work in making butter, besides max
ing as much butter in cool weather, and
more and better butter in hot weather. He
would sooner part with his moving machine
than this great labor.saving convenience.

A. CLEyER SwNDLING DEUcE.-A st.
Louis rogue is the inventor Of a sWindle
which business men will do well to look out
for. Disguised as a telegraph messenger the
fellow carried to a wealthy man in that city
two kilograms, and presented the signature
book for a couple Of autographs. The page
OF the book was cut and underlaid with a
blank check in such a way that in signing
his name twice the gentleman would both
sign aud endorse the check. The trap how

Of the check under the leaf, which revealed

No doubt the hard times, the dulluess of
business, and the scarcity of employment in
many branches of industry, are the cause Of
the present carnival of crime all over New
England. There is a certain class Of beings
calling themselves men who in times when
money is plenty and business brisk find means
Of subsistence without open violation of laws
but who in times like these are made desper-
ate by want and will not hesitate to commit
murder, arson, and robbery, in hope Of plum
der. For those who are really willing to
work there is always plenty Of employment
at good, living wages. Farm hands are even
now scarce and command good pay, and
those who are too naughty to labor on the
farm deserve to s%tarve, and if instead, they
will rob and steal we do not feel sure but the
Boston ~clergymen were as near right in
