The last Legislature appropriated
$4,000 for the purchase of a site and
erection of buildings for State Work
House. And now the question is,
whether the commissioners can draw
from the State Treasury $4,000 in
all, or $4,000 year for that purpose.
The act does not sag 800, 900 per an
mum; but the question is what did the
Legislature intend to appropriate.
Who knows? So the sum of $4,000
was appropriated for the erection of
barns and improvement of the build
ings Of the Reform School at Vergen-
mes. Five thousand more would per-
haps not come amiss for that purpose.
Is it clear that the Legislature did not
intend to give 1000 per dnRum for
that purpose? These are specimens
of the questions that will now be com
ing up all the while. Can anything
be palmer than that we need a new
State OFFICIAL Legislative Mind-read-
er-who shall make it his business to
know what the Legislature MEANS and

think its duties should be forced upon
him, without an addition to his salary.

The Turkish Legation reports Rus
sian outrages at Kazanlik The Turks
and Israelites having been disarmed,
a massacre followed. An Israelite
merchant refusing to reveal the hiding
place of his money was cut to pieces.
His brother, hoping to save him, gave
up a thousand Turkish pounds, but
had to flee TO save his own life. The
stores and houses of the Israelites and
Mussulmans were sacked. Four Isra-
elites were beaten and one assassinat-
ed. Seventeen Israelites were drag
ged from their refuge in the synagogue
and murdered, and then Israelites
numbering $50 men, women and chill
dren were driven along by the Rus
SLAMS and Bulgarians to Shipka, where
for fifteen days they lived on bread
and water. Thence they were sent to
Gabrova, and during the night the
Bulgarians abducted and outraged four
young girls and married women. TAX
en- to Tiernova they were relieved by
co-religionists and allowed to depart
for Sistova and Bucharest.

Rum did it. A week ago Friday,
John Williams Of Toronto was hanged
for the murder of his wife. What rum
can do is illustrated by the crime. In
detail it is horrible in the extreme.
The wife was described as an affection
ate little woman. They had several
children. Williams in a drunken
frenzy, without any provocation, rup-
tured his wife's liver with heavy kicks
and stamped upon her head with his
heels. He denied, when sober, all
knowledge Of what he had done.

The Hogans, contractors on the p.
& o. road, being about to go to South
America to take contracts on railroads,
thought best to procure few recon-
mendations from people here. Judge
Poland and other prominent citizens
wrote them very good letters, but the
Hogans, thinking a word from the z.
& o. would be clever introduction,
applied to one Of. the Receivers, and
was accommodated with the following
recommend:
ITO whom it may concern: James
and Thomas Hogan were contractors
on our road. They were unable to
carry it through on account of the
stringency Of the money market and
other matters"
After reading it over several times
the HOgans, concluded that, in as
much as the ''other matters were not
written out in full, they couldn't use
the recommendation to advantage
and handed it to Tom Fleetwood, who
is wondering what kind of business he
can 90 into in order to secure a lifl
from the letter. The last idea Ton
had in his head was to open an offic.
for collecting of claims against the p
& o., thinking that if he couldn'
work the ''stringency Of other matters
in there, that part of the recommen
dation would be entirely useless
James Hogan declared that he neve
should dare to present the letter to /

CHARGE TO THE GRAND JURY.

In his charge to the Grand Jury
Judge Powers spoke Of the antiquity
of the institution Of the Grand jury
and reminded them that their duties
were very well outlined in the oath
they had taken. IL was originated
several centuries back in English his
tory and for the purpose Of protecting
the people against the sovereignty.
Ii had been incalculated in the FEEDER
al constitution and many state const-
buttons. Our legislature had enacted
that a grand jury should give prelimi-
nary examination to all persons charg-
ed with crime. Its perOgative now
was 10 protect the people against
themselves. To protect all from be-
inx put to the expense and disgrace of
a public trial on the strength Of rumor
or prejudice. 1t takes a more imPor-
tant role than the court itself, for the
court can proceed only when permits
sion is given by the grand jury. They
we're to reach their conclusions by a
legal process, and should receive with
especial caution all evidence given by
citizens who were not under oath.
Their proceedings were to be in secret.
Their oath held them to perpetual Sc
crecy. This fact had given rise TO
complaint. 1t was advisable, howev-
er, to protect the innocent from the
too public circulation of the suspicion
that had arisen against them, and also
to prevent the guilty from escaping
when under suspicion. 1t was also
advisable because they sometimes had
unpleasant duties to perform which
thew would be more free to do when
conscious that their acts and opinions
were to be kept secret. They were
to receive only legal evidence and were
to be satisfied beyond a reasonable
doubt as the evidence stood unanswer-
ed. If however they thought matter
could be explained away, they were to
give the accused party an opportunity
for such explanation. They were TO
Judge not only of the acts of indiyid-
uals but also TO consider the intent.
In speaking in regard to the liquor
law the Judge was more decided than
we have ever heard him before. He
said; all do not agree as to how to
regulate the traffic in intoxicants, but
nearly all admit that it should be
regulated by statute some way. He
spoke of the six men i'm the state con-
victed of murder, four of whom were
brought to their sad fate by drink, as
a striking argument in favor of some
law. He also said that it was not
stating it too strongly to say that four
fifths of all court cases we're traceable
to the same cause. Our poor houses
&C., were mentioned. Letting alone
the moral question, he said it was an
important consideration which inter-
ested every taxpayer whether they
would pay this enormous expense in
order that one or two men in each COM
munity might get living. Had it
been a religious meeting we should
have been led to sanction bis remark
on the liquor question with an amen.
At the close of his charge the court
honored our townsman, Judge Page,
with the appointment of foreman of
the Grand Jury.

while. An indianapolis reporter
having got hold of him yesterday and
questioned him about the report that
Tilden had taken the oath of office
and was going to make a contest for
the presidency yet, he replied that he
didn't know anything about Tilden's
plans, and then went on say: "As
far as am concerned, Mr.. Wheeler
has been sworn into the office of Vice
President and will stay there for four
years. When he was swora that end
ed it."
