The New York ''NatiOn" and Hon,
r.. w. Park.

Readers of the New York Nation will
remember occasional homilies IN that paper
on the folly of jumping to conclusions.
The Nation has given much sage advice on
that subject in its day. Sad to say, how
ever, it takes as little OF its own medicine
as any doctor. Appearing but once week
and having time for an amount of delber-
alton and care In its editing which no daily
journal can take, it is continually going off
half-cocked, and of course continually
laundering. We take this to be largely
owing to the inordnate conceit of the ed
itor OF the Nation, who conceiyes any ran
dom guess of his own to be more valuable
than the most absolute information derived
from other people. Its last number illus
trates this propensity. Having found in
the Free Press letter about the Emma
mine, signed up" the Nation Jumps to the
conclusion that it was written by Mr.. Il.
w. Park, and proceeds to beratc that gen.
tleman, through half column, rs an in..
pudent liar.
The letter, however, was not written by
Mr. Park, but by gentleman of this city,
who has been eXcellently well situated to
know the facts about the sale of the Emma
mine-and who, we doubt not, tells the ex-
act truth about the transaction.
M'rhe cheap and foolish fling, of calling
the Free Press Mr. Parks 'home organ is
hardly worth notice. We should like,
however, to have the Nation believe us
when we say, that we have had no COM
munication Of any kind from OF with Mr.
Park, in over year; that nothing written
by, or so far as we know inspired by him
has appeared in our columns in that time /;
that we do not happen to know whether at
this time he is On this side OF the country
or in California; and that when he writes
fol this paper he is in the habit of doing
so over his full name. So offered, we have
always been willing to publish anything
from him, and we have commonly found
him very well able to take his own part, in
any controversy If this makes us his
"organ, we shall have to accept the title
1t is well enough to note that the Nation
has changed ground on the Emma mine
business. Having heretofore insisted that
the sale of the mine by the American own
ers to the English company was effected
by fraud, (for which charge, or for the
charge of "sating" the mine made in con
nection with it, the Nation has been sued

A ScnndniIzer Spofrcd.

For several weeks past Miss Annie D.
Keith, daughter of Hon. A. Keith of Shell
don, an cstimable young lady and member
of the Unitarian church choir of Burling-
ton, has been greatly annoyed and insulted
by receiving letters from an unknown
source, containing the vilest propositions,
and charges too obscene and indecent for
publication. Miss Keith has been In great
distress of mind from this cause, and now
that the facts are known, she has the hearty
sympathy of all who know her. and the
high respect in which she has ever been
held is In nowisc diminished by the efforts
of her traducer. And this indecent anony-
nous correspondence has not been limited
TO the lady alone, but letters containing the
vilest charges against her have been re-
ceived by no less than five persons who
reside in Burlington, one Of whom IL
the Rev. Mr.. Ware, pastor of the Unfair
ian church. All efforts to trace out the
author Of this dirty work for time proved
unavailing. Some weeks ago man stopped
at the Van Ness house, registering himself
as a Mr.. Stone of Bakersfield. He gained
the confidence of bcll-boy and asked him
all manner of questions concerning Miss
Keith. The boy told of this, suspicious
were aroused, and Bakersfield was secured
for Mr.. Stone" but no such man could be
found in that town and for a time Miss
Keith's friends were at fault. AT length
suspicion turned upon a well-kuown mer-
chant of st. Adams, and Friday last II. IT,.

During the war of the rebellion, when

any difficult work was to be done, IN the
effort to save constitutional government to
one portion of the Union and restore 1t to
the other, the cry went up "put the YER
montcrs at the 'front.'" The Nermonters
went to the front, contributed to turn back
Inc tide of rebellion, and aided materially
in making self-governmcnt possibility
and the constitution the supreme law OF
the land SO now, when the right OF self
government is impaired, when the consti-
tuition il set at naught, and states are con-
trollcd by usurping power, Vermont is
once again at the front endcavoring to
make constitutional government and state
sovereignty something more than mere
theory. When the reserved rights of the
states are threatened by the cncroachments
of the general government, we find Sena-
tor George F. Edmnnds throwing himself
IN the breech, regardless alike of admins
tratioDs or the behests of party or caucus,
determined to keep state and federal gov
crnments each in its own sphere, to secure
TO Louisiana a republican form Of govern
ment, and wrest the power OF the state
from the hands of usurpers. II matters not
now to inquire whether his solution of the
liflicully-that is. by new election al
around-is right, proper. constitutional, it
il enough to know that the Senator believes
and is honest in the belief, that Kellogg is
not governor de .fdcto or de ja,r, that he,
the Other state officers and the Legislature
o 1873 only constitute an usurping goj-
eminent aud one utterly without color of
right, and that Pinchback has never been
legally and constitutionally elected Sena-
tor of III, United States lie is as earnest
in the matter, too, as la is honest in his
belief. Dispatches inform us that he is
working among republican senators to Sc
cure their support his proposition for a
new election that, without factious oppo-
silion on tue part of the democratic sena-
tors, he believes the measure will pass the
senate, and, if so, that he is assured that ii
will, also. pass the house. The Senator,
having put his hand TO the plow. viii not
turn back. He will labor until govern
ment of the people, by the people and for
the people Of Louisiana is secured. If
Congress has the constitutional power 10
pass such bill. il when passed ii will be
valid law, then reasonable solution of
these troubles is presented. II such a
measure is unconstitutional, or the preco-
dent would be dangerous, then let, as the
