A pumpkin is about the last thing in the

but that is just what one did at Marshfield,
Conn, the other day. Mrs. Elisha Keene,
proposing to make some pumpkin pies,

put in the oven to thaw out ; when she
went to take it out, it exploded with the

Caughnawaga Ship Canal.

The Burlington Manufactures Union
have issued a circular inviting cooperation
on the mat er of the Caug hnawags ship
canal. We make one or two extracts
therefrom:
The object of this circular Is TO solicit
of your body an endorsement of the above
resolutions, in order to influence our gov
eminent to oppoint the proposed COM
mission at an early day. 1t is not our pur-
pose to reiterate the familiar arguments in
relation to the feasibility and cheapness OF
the Caughnavaga Ship Canal route over
all other routes from the great West to the
Sea board. We would simply sllude to the
facts that the proposed ship canal (from
the St. Lawrence TO Lake Champlain) is
bat 29l miles long, with less than 25 feet
of lockHge, and that it can be bui for 49,
500, 900, and that upon its completion yes
sells of | 900 tons burden can load at Chi
cago, or other ports on the Western Lakes,
each with 200 bushels of wheat, and
| land the same, without breaking bulk,
within 250 miles of Boston, having passed
through less than sixty miles of taxed can
nj navigation, and at a reduction Of nearly
if not quite fifty per cent of the freiehtage,
from the present rates. The reduction of
the freight on the single article of lumber
from Michigan and Canads will be at least
one dollar per thousand. The saving to
New England in the cost of bringing the
quantity of breadsiuhs, now transported by
the railroads and the Erie Canal to New
England, would repay the total cost of the
canal, every year.

TO compete with natural water routes, I'M

RUTLAND
DAILY AND WEEKLY GLOBE.
vERMONT's LARGEST AND BEST
NEWSPAPER.

The new year, commemorating the compile.
ton OF the first century OF our independence
and witness ng the election of president and,
for the first time in our history, an entire ma
tional house OF representatives, will be one OF
splendid possibilities both to journalism and
the country,
THE GLOBE will avail itself of the former, by
giving the news, late prompt fresh and full /;
by impartial comments on the news OF the
hour by candid, honest discussion OF the is
sues of the day; by full reports of local occur
rences and correspondence both local and
general by agricultural readings, market re-
ports, and by selections both grave and gay.
In a word, the endeavor VIII be to make THE
GLOBE a live newspaper, indispensable to the
farmer and business man, to the politician and
student, to the onlce, counting room and the
family circle.
That the country may realize the possibilities
seemingly in store for 1t, we shall on our part
as In times past, advocate the principles and
policy OF the republican party, as we under
stand them. and, to that end. we shall labor to
make It better and purer by combating its
errors and exposing the wrong.doers In It's
ranks. We shall favor and strive for real ad-
payments, an honest maintenance OF the ma.
lions plighted faiths purer and better politics,
faithful and economical administration Of the
government, municipal, state and national, and
shall support only honest, capable men for
Office.
As an earnest OF the future, we can only point
TO our course In the past. and assure our pat
r0nS that hereafter, as heretofore, we shall en-
deavor TO make THE GLOBE better and better,
and more and more worthy SuppOrt with
each succeeding month What THE GLOBE
has been during the less than three years OF It's
existence is well known, that It has been fully
appreciated Its generous support amply attests.
AS n medium OF advertising, THE GLOBE is I'M
surpassed In Vermont. The combined daily
and weekly circulation exceeds that Of any other
daily and weekly newspaper In Vermont the
circulation OF the daily is equal to that of any
other daily in Vermont 4; the circulation OF THE
WEEKLY GLOBE is much larger than the combined
circulation Of all the other toeekiy newspapers in
Rutland county and Is more than one.half
larger than that OF any other weekly journal In
western Vermont Advertisers make note of
this,and OF the further fact that 1t is the largest
Journal in the state.
