Flowers for the Shade.

Many a little yard in town, deep in
shade, could be made beautiful; the
shady plat before many a sitting room
window, could be made fragrant and
blooming, we're the planting only judi
cious. The Morning Glory, hiding from
sight all thai We would screen, will
every morning the summer through give
an abundance of bloom in more deeply,
delicately, richly tinted colors than
painters brush can paint. The Adonis,
with its pretty, finely cut foliage and
blood red flowers, f1Ourishes in the
deepest shade. To produce the best
effect, the plants should stand thickly in
the row, five or six to the foot. SOwn

A little Girls Exlravagance.

The a:.ention of Detectives Swan and

that q very young girl, apparently not
more than ten years of age, and of q
very bright appearance and richly

the theatre for four successive mig ts,
this week, which she paid for her elf
and occupied with young companions.
She was "~shsdowed," and her ways of

hacks continually sometimes paying
as much as $l5 and SEQ per day for

A STARTLING SERIES OF INCENDIARY FIRES.
A Grafton correspondent ofthe Rutland
Herald writes 10 that paper as follows
under date of the 22d inst.:-
During the past week, the adjoining
town Of Windham has been the scene of
three incendary fires. The first was the
school house. This fire was discovered at
about . o'clock Wednesday morning, the
18th inst /; the building and contents, ill.,
Guiding the scholars books, and some val
liable books belonging to the district, was
entirely consumed. The school house was
situated few rods west Of the residence of
viii liam Harris, Jr., and this house was
| endangered.
1.-The second fire occurred on Thursday
evening, the 10Th inst, at 1880 o'clock, and
was large barn, 30x4O feet, with base
ment, owned by Messrs. William Harris
& Son. The barn was filled with about
thirty ions of hay, quantity of oats and
barley. Adjoining the barn was large
shed, which was also burned. Nothing
was saved from either of these buildings.
There was partial insurance on them.
This loss falls heavily on the owners, as
they have considerable fine stock, TO which
they prof. posed feeding this hay and grain.
1.-THE third fire occurred on Saturday
| evening, the 21st inst, consisting of a
dwelling house, barn and shed, also owned
by Messrs. Harris & Son, and occupied by
tenant in their employ. This fire was
also discovered at 1880 o'clock. The hay
had been fired, and, when first found, had
made but little progress, but it was found
TO he impossible to check it. A fine COW,
owned by Mr.. H., and two hogs, belong
ing to the occupant, persisted in the flames.
The fire, from the barn, communicated
with the shed and dwelling house, and all
were entirely consumed. By great exer-
ton, the furniture, clothing, etc., of the
family were saved. Insurance on the
buildings, $500. The greatest excitement
prevails throughout the town. Many of
the citizens OF the town have to-day been
on the ground, TO view the ruins, and seek
ing traces of the incendiary. As yet they
are at fault but several parties have been
suspected, and one, at least, examined,
who proved his innocence.
"The selectmen of Windham have offer
ed reward of five hundred dollars for the
arrest and conviction of the rascas, and it
is hop that they will speedily be brought
to justice. ...
"Some weeks since, a saw mill, in South
Wind ham, (Cobbs mills,) owned by Mr..
Rhodes, was burned; and, more recently,
barn in the north part OF the town, own
ed by Myron o. Barnes, was also destroy
ed by tire-in both instances the undoubt-
ed work of an incendiary.

Governor Tilden has written letter TO
Abram S. Hewitt in reply 10 one from
him regarding the representation that
the South hope, through his election, TO
have provision made for the rebel debt,
and for losses of slaves" Afler stating at
length his previous declarations regarding
the constitutional amendments, he says:
"Should be elected president the provis-
ians of the fourteenth amendment will, so
far as depends on me, be maintained, exc
cuted and enforced in perfect and absolute
good faith. No rebel debt will he assumed
or paid no claim for loss or emancipation
of any slave will be allowed; no claim for
any loss or damage incurred by disloyal
persons arising from the late war, whether
covered by the fourteenth amendment or
not, W i'll DO recognized or paid the cotton
ia X bill will not be refunded. shall deem
1t my duty to veto every bill providing for
the assumption or payment of any such
debts, loss, damages, claims, or for the re-
funding of any such tax" This is a shrewd
move on Tilden's part, and he doubtless
hopes that the letter will prove a winning
card but the country will remember that
there is no necessity or occasion that Gov.
Hayes should write such letter, and the
people will vote accordingly.

An address was delivered by Hon. Ed
ward Conant, state superintendent of
schools, in representatives hall, Thursday
evening, on the educational interests Of
this state. Since his election, and the abol-
ishment Of the state board of education, he
has visited oil towns, delivered more than
200 lectures, and held 10 institutes each
year. There have graduated from the first
course of all the normal schools since their
foundation 610 teachers. He recommend
ed more generous appropriations to be APP
piled directly to teachers salaries. A
change in the license system, by which, at
present, a teacher must procure a certifi-
cate in every town, was strongly urged. A
graduation OF certificates depending upon
experience was also recommended. The
matter of text books, of which there exists
such multiplicity in the state, was touch
ed upon, the speaker holding that the state
superintendent ought not to be charged
with the duty of their selection.

II is The general popular feeling that the
vote Of New York is going to determine
the result this year, and hence no political
calculations have the interest of those which
throw light on its probable vote. In 1872,
the last presidential election, the total vote
of the Stale was $40, l51, of which the re-
publicans had $4,000 majority. In 1874,
W hen Tilden was elected governor by 3S,-
900 majority, the vote was but 79i ,39l. In
SIS, when The democratic stale ticket was
elected by 1907 majority, the total vote was
776,745. That is to say, in 1874, 1890 vot-
ers who came out in 1872 stayed al home,
and in 1875, the number of such stay at
homes was 1000. The key TO the meaning
of these figures is found in the fact that this
stay home vote belongs wholly in the
rural districts where the republican
strength of the State lies. The vote of the
democratic strongholds of New York and
Brooklyn has remained at about the same
figure all the while. The inference, which
amounts 10 demonstration, is that the g.
600 stay-at-home voleIs of 1875, when they
come 10 the polls in November 10 cast the
vote they do not take the trouble TO cast
more than once in four years, will go SOL
idly 10 increase the republican majority.
The democrats make much out of the fact
that they now hold New York Stale. But
a majority of 37O7 In State that casts vote
of nearly million, may we'll he dismissed
from consideration as wholly without sig
nificance.

NEW York, Oct. 10, 1876.
The Republican National Committee coll
graduate the party which they represent
and the country upon the result of the Fall
elections already held. In Maine, Re-
publican majority of less than five thous-
and has been increased 10 nearly sixteen
thousand. In Vermont, the old ascenden-
cy has been fully maintained. In Colorado,
a Democratic majority of two thousand has
been overcome, and Republican Govern
or and both branches of the Legislature
elected, securing two United States Sena-
tors and three Presidential Electors. In
Ohio, a Republican majority of $500 has
been increased TO between nine and ten
thousand, and five Republican Congress-
men have been gained. In Indiana, a
Democratic majority of 1000 has been re-
duced to 5000, with gain of four Repub-
lican Congressman and the Legislature up
on joint ballot. These highly gratifying
results have been obtained Ia the face of

show the drift of popular sentiment, and
clearly indicate national victory for the
Republican party in November.
All that Is now necessary is to continue
the vigorous prosecution of the canvass, to
secure protection for all citizens in the
right of the ballot, TO bring all legal voters
to the polls, and to practice the utmost Wig
lance upon the day Of election.
Fortunately for the country, our candi-
dates represent the best spirit of reform, to
which they are pledged by every act and
utteance of their lives. Their success
alone will insure honest administration and
preserve the government from the un-
friendly hands of those who recently
sought to destroy It, and who now seek 10
prey upon It's resources.

"John Elliot" The latter locomotive was
badly wrecked, and its engineer, Henry NJ.
Staples, and fireman, Lewis S. Phillips, were

forced against the fire-box and held there,
in which position he experienced The most
terrible suffering. He lived about an hour
AFTER The accident, and calmly directed the
efforts Of those who were trying to exiri-
cate him. He leaves a wife aud two chill
dren, and Phillips leaves a wife. Graves,
the engineer of the "wid," was response
BILE for the collision, as he ought not to have
