The ceremony of installing the
officers Of Crystal Lake Lodge, No.

Master Nelson 9. Hyde of Poultney,
officiated. The officers installed
were: w. B. Chubb, N. G.; A. j.
Clogstone, V. G.; Thos. II. Chubb,
Sec'y; s. G. Smith, Treas. After
the installation Grand Master Hyde
and ID. ID. G. NJ, s. G. Smith made
few well.timed remarks. The mu-
sic (both instrumental and vocal J,
which added much to the enjoy
ment of the evening, was furnished
by the ladies and gentlemen of the
village. s.H.
On the morning of the 4th a large
concourse of people assembled at
the "Lake House," kept by Mr.. Da-
Wis, upon the borders of Fairlee
Lake and spent the former part of
the day in listening to the excellent
music discOurse6 by the "Ely Cor
net Band" and sailing upon the
Lake. At IL o'clock NJ, precisely,
the company marched to the new
hall recently finished by Mr.. Davis,
escorted by the band, where they
partook of a most excellent repast.
After which in accordance with the
announcement of the President of
the Day, q. G. Smith, ESQ.,, of Cor
NTH, they all repaired to the CON-
mon in front of the House, where,
(in the absence of the speakers ex-
pected), they listened to some re.
marks, appropriate to the OCCASION,
made by Hon. Alvah Bean of West
Fairlee.
And after the reading of the reg

spersed with music by the band land
who, by the way, done themselves
honor upon the occasion,) the com
pany repaired to the plain, near by,
to witness the hoase-race, which
was somewhat exciting, and wit
messed by very large concOurse of
people. Everything seemed to pass
OFT pleasantly. Order and quiet
reigned throughout. Mr.. Davis
done himself much credit on the &C.

oIAIES,
Attracts the attention and commands
the sympathy of the people of the whole
Union in their progressive recovery from
the effects of the war. Their first neces-
sity is an intelligent and honest admin.
stration of the Government which will
protect all classes of citizens in all their
political and private rights. What the
South may need is "peace," and peace
depends upon the supremacy of
law. There can be no enduring peace
if the constitutional rights of any por-
ton of the people are habitually ditsre.
garded. A division of political parties,
resting merely upon distinctions of race,
or upon sectional lines, is always unfor-
tunate, and may be disastrous. The
welfare of the South, alike that of every
part of the country, depends upon the
attractions it can offer to labor, to immi-
grafton and to capital: but laborers will
not go and capital will not be ventured
where the Constitution and the laws are
set at defiance, and distraction, appre-
hension and alarm take the place of
peace'loving and law-abiding social life.
All parts of the Constitution are sacred,
and must be sacredly observed-the parts
that are new no less than the parts that
are old. The moral and material pros
perity of the Southern States can be more
effectually advanced by generous reco-
nigition of the rights of all, by all, a rec
ognition without reserve or exception.
With such recognition fully accor ded
it will be practicable to promote, by the
influence of all legitimate agencies of
the General Government, the efforts of
the people of those States to obtain for
the blessings of honest capa-
BILE local government.
NO DISTINCTION BETWEEN NORTH AND
SOUTH.

The show was the biggest thing that
ever took place in the United States,
except, perhaps, the New York pro-

was never seen before, and never
will he again for a hundred years.
Speaking of the Centennial, don't
delay your going. In September
the city will be crowded, and if it is
hot now, you have the advantage of
more room to yourself. You can
keep cool. You can get good board
now, in that city, for 81 per day.
which means good rooms and a good
table. At this rate you can afford
to go slow, and take it leisurely.

cur for another century. There are
miles upon miles of the finest works
of art in existence-there are the
best works in machinery and every.
thing the world uses, from all the
nations on the globe, and no one
can afford to miss the education the
view affords. Come, and come now.
Come while the city is so empty that
the landlords are anxious to see you,
and will do something to make You
comfortable. And come to stay q
title while. Come prepared to see
