South"
But it is very evident that, however am
biguous he may desire to be SO far as the
South is concerned, he has addressed the
people of his own section in this Hewitt
letter in their own vernacular, and wishes
them to consider him in full accord with
the well ascertained sentiment of the
North upon all the subjects embraced in
the fourteenth amendment. 1t is new
profession OF political faith, thrown in al
most at the last moment in the hope of
creating a diversion in his favor, and
turning doubtful scale. His letter pre-
sents the pitiful spectacle OF an old man,
claiming to. be an American statesman
and candidate for the Presidency, urg-
ing as reason why he should be elected
promise to keep his oath inviolate when
he swears to support the constitu-
ton. He offers himself as an eleventh
hour laborer in the constitutional
garden, and wants to stipulate before
hand for the penny. Governor Hayes
and his political friends adopted
this constitutional amendment against
the votes of Governor Hendricks and
all the Democracy North and South.
The Republican candidates have been
faithful to it for years. Mr.. Tilden prom
ises to treat it in friendly fashion here
after, and, lawyer like, wants to be paid
in advance. He demands the Presidency
as retaining fee with the promise of the
executive patronage as refresher. And
all this for what? Why, for undertaking
to carry out . single principle of the Re-
publican party. which any Republican
statesman in the country would admins

A Brace of Railroad Accidents.

The up train, mixed freight and passen-
ger, on the Harlem Extension road, due in
Rutland at $50 p. m. Thursday, ran off
the track at highway crossing about half
a mile north of South Wallingford-prob-
ably from stone or some hard substance
being wedged in the track. One freight
car and milk car were thrown off the
track, and in crossing the cattle guard the
truck fell from under the cars, which were
damaged considerably. A wrecking train
was sent down from here and got the track
clear about 8 o'clock a. m.
The down train that should have left
here at 10 o'clock Thursday evening and
the up express due here at 1875 Friday
morning were delayed until the track was
cleared.
There should have left here south
bound train, composed of a freight, milk
and mail car and passenger coach, at
$40 a. M, but on account of this accident
did not leave until the track was cleared.
1t got started after a. m. Friday, and
reached point one mile south of North
Wallingford, when it encountered broken
rail, and the mail and milk car ran of and
started down the cmbankment toward
Otter Creek. Mail Agent E. w. Stuart in
the car was quite badly injured. 1t was
thought at frs. that his ribs were broken,
but he finally got at his work and went on
with his train. The wreck was cleared
about 10 o'clock. The injured mail agent
has responded to telegram that he will be
able to continue mis- trip.

State Politics.

Senators Edmunds and Morrill, are ex-
pected to address the Vermont republican
state convention, and 1t is predicted that
the convention will declare against a third
term.
1t is to be hoped that no clique of state
or national ofiiceholders will be allowed to
control the state or district conventions for
the appointment OF delegates To the CT clr-
natl convention.
The 3 ,>t"n Jownal says; IN is stated
that Judge Ppar d has rrgaintd his popu-
larity ia Vermont aud will probably be re-
elected to congress at The next election.
His district cannot afford to lose him."
Among the most prominent and popular
gentlemen named for delegate at large 10
the national republican convention is Hon
John w. Stewart of Middltbury. His ser
vices for the party, the position he occupies
IN the state, and his eminent ability. point
him out fitting representative of Vermont

toned Judge Homer E. Royce as possible
candidate for congress from the third dis
triot, correspondent in the Burlington
Free Press objects on the ground that how
ever honest and capable be may really be,
he has been so much involved in the IN
happy strife that has existed between the
Central Vermont aud Rutland railroads
that it would not be possible that his name
would be received with much tavcr by the
majority of the republican party. The ar
tice further says that it seems TO be the
opinion of our people that Vermont is not
so strongly represented in the lower house
of congress as it formerly has been, and
now ought to be. The article. Closes by

His reply was that he was waiting to

DR.. Howe, the assistant scribe, did not
think the question proper one. It was
entirely outside of the matter for which
Mr.. Bowen had been invited, and he hoped
1t would not be repeated, or others Of the
same character.
Mr.. Bowen said he was ready to answer
any questions put to him in relation to his
communication, but il that had been de-

Bacon as 10 whether he could remember a
conversation between himself and II. b.
Clnfliu, during which the latter told him
he was not wanted by the committee, he
said that it seemed to him that he had
right to know If his communication had
been conradcted.
DIR. Wolcott repeated what the modera-
tor had said In regard to the nature of the
communication, and Mr.. Bowen eaid he
had evidence that he was not wanted there
1t was the report of the investigating com.
mittee containing list of those summoned

ST LOUIS, Feb. ~.
Upon the conclusion of the session of
the court last evening, District Attorney
Dyer announced that he would have some
rebuttal evidence to offer this morning.
Upon opening of court to-day George Gar
win, the secretary OF the board of police
commissioning; was called ior the purpose
Of showing the record of Medill, the letter
carrier, who testified to returning two let
tiers to Joyce. The witness did not an
swer. and the district attorney Immediately
announced that the government would put
in no rebu,tal testimony. The case was
then declared closed so far as evidence was
concerned. Judge Dillon asked if counsel
had arranged in what manner the closing
arguments should be made. Judge Porter
arose and said the defense had intended to
raise question of law looking to the d.
recton of the verdict, and asked permits
sion to address the court. 1t was granted,
and Judge Porter spoke.
On the reassembIlng of the court, Judge
Dillon in a lengthy decision overruled the
motion for the acqnittal of the defendant.
Some discussion then took place as to the
order in which the arguments should be
The rule of the court had been for the de-
fence to open and be followed by the prose-
cution, but both Judge Porter and Nr.
Storrs thought the opening should be by
the prosecution. The case rested on cir
cumstantial evidence, and it was but Just
that the defense be advised as to what por-
ton of the great mass of testimony which
had been adduced, and a large part of
which had been rendered irrelevant since
its Introduction. would be relied on by the
prosecution. AS the prosecution has the
terrible advantage of the closing argument,
they should not complain of being re-
quired to disclose their case 80 as
give the defense an idea as to
what they would have to answer. Judge
Dillon did not think the rule good one
and in view of the circumstances it seemed
to both himself and Judge Treat but just
that the prosecution be required to open in
order that the defense might not waste
time in guessing on what portion of the
mass of testimony the prosecution relied.
lie would therefore suspend the rule as
matter of justice to the defendant.
COL Dyer said he had not expected this
and had not prepared his argument. He
therefore asked for an adjournment until
Tomorrow Judge Porter joined in the re-
quest as the defense was equally UMPIRE
pared, and Judge Dillon acquesced and
the court adjourned

scene at the dwelling of Mr.. and Mrs. s.
Tyler, on Main street in this village, long
to be remembered. 1t was the occasion of
surprise party of about thirty of their
friends. AT Sso'clock the premises were

folding doors connecting the two spacious
rooms occupying the main part OF the low
or floor were thrown open and the whole
house above and below brilliantly lighted
up. The happy countenance and hearty
laugh indicated that the hours were being
enjoyed by all. At 10 o'clock the cloth
was spread on the long table in the dining
room and the party sat down to supper

by the visitors--and such supper as
might be judged sufficient to feast the
gods. AT 10 o'clock the party broke up

their homes impressed with the thought
that it had been good for them to be there.

After the Fire.

Tho Bates house RUNS yet send forth
vapor and the peculiar odor of smouldeling
fire. The shell of high wall that so lately
stood, like the pride that goeth before a
fall, lies PROSTATE, causing pedestrians TO
make an unpleasant detour through the
muddy street. A few laborers are chip
ping the mortar off the bruised bricks
Everything about the ruins wears an air of
dismay, yet the silent and fire stained walls
speak to every passer-by.
The work of adjusting the losses by the
recent fire was prosecuted vigorously yes
terday. The smaller losses are settled first.
The examination of the larger stocks of
goods require more time. The adjustment
of the Bates house will not be reached until
next week

Some thirty students of the high school
are at present passing through the ludicrous
disease called the humps Some few ara
quite seriously affected but the majority
are in attendance upon their school duties.
The Baptist sociable was held at the resi-
depce of g. M. Townsend on Wednesday
evening. An unusual number were in at
tendance. The notable feature of the even
ing was a posoiiice. We noticed, how
ever, that none of the letters were prepaid,
the announcement, due five cents, accom-
panying each delivery. Mr.. Heman Man
digo was also present with his magic Ian
tern, affording much instruction, as well
as amusement to the young people.
In the absence of Rev. f. Conover the
pulpit of the Baptist church was filled by
Rev. q. III. Archibald of Pawlet Three
services were held and his discourse gave
general satisfaction.
The Moore excitement continues una
hated. The committee appointed by the
Congregational church society to investi-
gate the matter make their report at
church meeting to be held Friday of this
week. 1t is hoped that the necessary steps
will be taken to further the ends of Justice
if the investigation should indicate inhu-
man treatment. The general expression is
why don't the authorities act?

A Detective Shot.

New YORK, Feb. IS.
Austin T. Rugg, who was shot at Dobb's
ferry, yesterday morning, as burglar, was
a stool pigeon in the employ of the police,
whom he had informed of the plans of
some burglars. Sullivan, proprietor of the
store which was being plundered and who
shot Rugg, testified at the inquest that he
had not been informed by the police of the
circumstances of Riggs presence. The
latter was a dentist and well known to Sui.
Ivan. McLane and Connolly, Riggs
companions, escaped in the melee, but were
arrested in their beds a short time after
