Vermont In Congress.

A citizen of the state writes as follows !:
at is humiliating to every honest, patriotic
citizen of Vermont to learn that member
of the delegates in congress was recreant
to duty when subjects of vital interest were
before that body. Who has not eXulted in
the fact that Vermont, though small in ter
ritory, has exerted a powerful influence for
good in the national councils? Who has
not contemplated with pride the stainless
character of her able representatives
through all her history to the present pc
rod? Now the inquiry is, where was one
of our members when questions of vast
Importance were before the house The
reply is, AT New York hotel. This is
a painful announcement, bringing blush
Of shame upon many cheeks
A Washington correspondent, speak
ing of the discussion of the civil rights bill
in the senate, says Saturday afternoon,
at the hour appointed, Mr. Edmumds OF
Vermont, rose in his seat and called the
bill, which caused him to be watched witt
almost breathless silence"
Judge Poland and Charles w. Willard OF
the Vermont delegation, voted against the
force bill. Mr.. Hendee. it is understood,
was at home at the time of the passage OF
this bill.

Man Shot In walden.

A shooting affair occurred in Walden,
Thursday, in which a rough character
named Henry Cannon received what is
thought to be fatal wound. The cause
of the shooting was brutal assault made
by Cannon upon widow lady named
Carr, whom he knocked down and other
wise matreatcd. Being prosecuted for the
ofiense by the states attorney, he tried TO
settle the matter, and, going to Mrs. Cars
house for that purpose, he was met by her
son who ordered him out of the house.
Some wor Is passed between the two, when
Carr told Cannon if he did not leave he
would shoot him. Cannon replied with
some epithet, when Carr drew small re-
volver and fred and Cannon dropped. lie
bled profusely, and it was thought at frst
he was killed. After while he became
conscious. and an examination showed that
the ball struck him on the side OF the chin,
and apparently glanced into the shoulder
above the collar bone. In a couple OF hours
Cannon was quite communicative, declar-
ING he had only received an ''army scratch
A physician was called to Cannon as soon
as could be, and reports that he is probably
fatally hurt. 1t is a bad wound, and his
habits have been such as to make recov-
erv extremely doubtful. Carr, who has
the sympathy of all who know him, is
said to be harmless and peaceable man.
He surrendered himself
