cess. Such men are more generously
estimated just because their failings
make them objects of sympathy. This
tendency to make what might. have been
rather than what was the prominent
feature in the dead mans life is By no
means always reprehensible one. But
in all cases to which such charitable con-
sideration Is extended, the moral of the
contingency IS overturned by the fact,
The very temptations, the conditions
implied in the contingency, make the
man what he was. Poe was, like Byron,
bound by earthly passions from which
be Yainly struggled to frse himself. But
without these bonds he would not have
been himself. If he had been a differ
ent man he would have been another
man. One OF our exchanges says of
Poe, and the remark applies just Us ap-
propriately to all persons of his char
acter, that "'what he might have been
as somebody else is a query that must
oppose thousand coDjectures to be IL
self but a conjecture, All that the dead
can ever be to the living is the evil and
the gsod that they were If the world
would profit by such q legacy it must
forget the evil ard treasure only the
good Those, therefore, who are con-
tinually recalling the personal life of
Poe as a criticism upon his genius are
engaged In a useless work. The day
will come when the good alone will en-
dure, and even the evil come down the
years TO show how marvellous was the
flight that was so heavily fettered

A PUBLIC LIBRARY.

1t was said IN an article in Our last
paper, on a free library for Rutland,
that ''when due 10 private beneticence

name of John Jacob Astor is associated
now almost wholly with the library
which he founded He mas not been
dead many years, but his uame Is now
known to thousands in the city of New
York by the Astor Library, who, If it
were not for the existence of this library,
would be ignorant OF the fact that saca

Prof. Jenney has read bis report on
the Black Hills. OF it We seEect The
most interesting paragraphs
That portion of the Black Hills which
may be designated as Harney's Peak
gold fields, is almost wholly in Dakota,
and extends about fifty miles north and
south, with an average breadth of near
ly twenty miles, covering an area Of not
less than eight hundred square miles.
The valuable god deposits, however,
are found in the valleys of the streams
which drain that area, the gold being
derived from the disintegration of the
quartz ledges which are very numerous
in the rocks of that region. The Most
extensive and valuable deposits of au-
riferous gravel discovered the past sea-
son were in the valleys of Spring and
Rapid creeks and their tributaries, where
IN almost every case, the gravel bars are
very advantageously situated for work
ing, and many natural circumstances
contribute to the profitable extracting
of the gold which they contain. Tim
bar of suitable size and quantity for the
construction of fumes and sluices is
abundant. The water supply is in most
localities ample, and the fall of the
streams sufficiently great TO enable the
water to be readily carried above the
level even of the more elevated bars and
deposits of gravel.
While as yet there have been discov-
cred In the Black Hills no deposits Of
gravel sufficiently rich in gold to be prof
itably worked in the primitive manner
with pan or rocker, yet there are many
bars in the Hsrney's Peak field, especi-
ally upon Spring creek, the forks of
Castle and Rapid creeks, and the val
leys of those mountain streams, which,

miners with sluices, viii y.eiS a go.,; re-

AT the close of the Rutland railroad
hearing at st. Albans, Judge Thomas
brought up the motion for an order to
compel the receivers to set aside the
fund accruing from the lower roads to
abide the results of the suit. He
claimed that the Rutland had an eqnita-
bic lien on this fund and that the mana
gers had no right to appropriate it for.
any other purpose than the payment of
the rent of the Rutland road Judge
Barrett said that Judge Royce Informed
him that The receivers were required to
give bond for the payment of this rent
IN the sum of q million dollars. 1t was
Judge Koyce's Impression that it was a
continuing bond upon the directors, and
Mr.. Fiield said It WAS go and binding
now. Judge Pront and Gov. Page de-
MED that it was a continuing bond, and
said It was given only for the official
term of The directors. After the pro
ceedings ended Mr.: Fifield and Judge
