The grange excursion and picnic to the
White Mountains has been fixed for the
Sth of September, orif the weather is stormy,
then the next day. They propose to leave
st. Johnsbury by the regular train at 920
a. M, running through the Notch to Bemis'
station, and thence return by special train,
stopping a short time at the Crawford House
to take a view Of the Notch and surround
ings, and perhaps to listen to remarks from
very prominent man who is stopping at
the Crawford. The fare from St. Johns
bury is Sl.00 for adults; so cents for those
under l6; 25 cents for all under IL. Tick.
cts are in the hands OF masters of oranges
in Caledonia and Essex counties. Each
family should carry rations sufficient fol
itself at least. All in the north part of the
county can 60 to st. Johnsbury on the reg
ular morning train, and special train at
night will take them back to Lyndonvlle
and also to Burke if there should be a car
load to that place, and all this for fare one
way.

ton of their own class and not by the depre-
citation Of any other.
Other industrial classes have seized the
inspiration and they too are thinking so that
there is now wide spread and growing dis
satisfaction with the existing state of things.
Neither political party, nor the two com.
biued seem to enjoy to very large degree
the confidence of the working people. The
financial theory upon which both are very
nearly agreed, is an impracticable and for
the laboring classes very irrational one
although it is doubtless perfect 10 the eyes
of the capitalist and moneyed man. The
most essential difference between the two
seems to be this Both admit the neces-
sity Of reform, but one is going to accom-
plish it inside Of the party and the other by
changing the administration to other hands.
But the working people all over the coun-
try are at work for themselves in pursuance
of their own ideas, according to the light
they have; and their notions although crude
at present will unquestionably in due time
crystalline themselves into well dgested
plan upon which the laboring men of all
classes can act in harmony in the complete
interest of labor. Although no political
question can ever be considered or any
movement iuaugurated in the grange, there
is nothing to hinder the Patrons from Civ
ing their undivided support to any plan that
will insure their equality with other classes ;
indeed, their principles would impel this
course. And if Patrons do their whole
duty in the grange they will receive train
ing that will fit them in such an event to
take the leading and conspicuous part to
which their numerical Importance entities

New England still continues to furnish
most Of the horrible crimes that go to make
up the criminal record Of the country.
There was time the Standardization Of the
border regions produced more atrocities than
the culture of New England. Worcester
Press
If the press publishes the above para
graph for any other purpose than to dis
credit New England, and to please the
butchers of negroes at the South, in justice
to itself an explanation should be made.
1t certainly is very far from the truth.
New England does indeed furnish" many
"horribe crimes" but it is not such sinner
as the press intimates, and the couture OF
New England" still falls far short of "the
semi-barbarism Of the border regions" in the
number and character Of the "atrocities"
for which it is responsible.
In the number of the press from which
we take the quoted paragraph, there we're
no reports of "atrocties" in New England
but it did not contain an account Of u polit-
cal aiIray in Tennessee in which one man
was killed aud niue wounded Of a sad
affair in Illinois, whore nan shot another
and was shot in return by the brother Of his
victim of the lynching of judge in Col
orado to prevent the holding Of court ;
and of two fights with three men killed and
others injured, in New York city. 1t may
be answered that other morning papers told
the story Of fatal ARRAY in Boston, and
the arrest Of man for wle-murder in New
Hampshire, but none of the parties, in either
affair, represented the couture Of New Eng
land" Is is true that there are many muir
ders in New England, but the murderers are
seldom persons born on its soil, educated in
its schools, and trained under its ennobling
influence. boston Traveller.

the apparatus being simple and not liable to
