an absuraity. But it will as readily be
admitted that while We have, and always

the pursuit as q wearsome alternative be-
tween that and starvation; at best with no
higher aim than making support and
without that professional zeal which is in,
lispensable to success.
Much light has been thrown upon the
subject Of education within the past few
years, and il is now recognized what it is

A resolution declaring the first seven
names elected was passed by stock vote OF
about IL 900 against little over 1000. The
ticket that was no. declared elected was
voted for by - individual stockholders,
while the one that was elected was repre-
scented b. 10 Individual stockholders. The
two parties represented the Connecticut
River Railroad interest and the Rutland
Railroad interest. The Connecticut River
party apparently prevailed in the cleo
ton; but if it is true. as is asserted,
that IL, 600 of the votes which elected them
were east lpon IL, 600 shares owned by the
Connecticut River Railroad Company. the
result is open 20 question. The law OF this
State provides that no one stakeholder shall
be entitled to vote for any shares beyond
one-tenth part of the whole number OF
shares. This would reduce the legal vote of
the Connecticut River Company to about
4 200 votes, and would give the actual cleo
ton TO Gov. Page and his associates. We
understand the Supreme Court will soon be
called on to decide who are the lawful di-
rectors, under our new quo warranto law
which affords speedy and efficient remedy
for all such cases.

Headquarters Veteran Soldiers Reunion.

BENNINGTON, VI, June 20, 1877.
| GENERAL ORDER No. ?.
The following plan for organization fol
| the coming reunion is thought to be the
most feasible and effcacious in securing o
thorough canvass snd enlistment of the
soldiers, and to form the most perfect ant
systematic organization for the encampment
1t will therefore be substantially observed
|. Company organizations will be formed
| throughout the State. each company to be
organized by the election of captain, two
Lieutenants, First Serg't and QCartermastei
Serg't.
,. A battalion will be formed in each
county. and a Battalion Commander ap
pointed who will be in command OF tile
some throughout the encampment.
B. The State will be formed into four
brigades ard a Brigade Commander ap-
pointed to command the bsttslions assigned
to him.
4. The whole army when met to form one
Grand Division.
As soon as IS men have enlisted in any
town, or two or more adjoining towns, or
when the Battalion Commanders direct,
they will organize by the election Of the of
ficers named.
Commanding officers, Except those to be
elected), will be announced in future Or
ders.
County Battalion Commanders will have
entire charge of their County and the
whole matter Of organization is left to their
Judgment.
They are requested however to appoint
an active, energetic soldier in each town as
q recruiting officer, as it is desired TO have
an invitation extended to every Veteran
Soldier in tine State. whether connected with
Vermont or other State organizations.
EnlIstments should be completed by the
lst Of August; therefore County Command
ers should proceed al once to appoint re-
cruiting officers, and to the organization of
Companies.
A report of the whole number of men en-
listed up to date should be forwarded by
the Goth of July.
1t is much desired that all who attend
should he present in connection with the or
ganization from their town. This is doubly
important at this time, as the reunion forms
part of the vermont Centennial Celebra
tion," in which many thousands besides the
soldiers are to participate.
Further information with reference to
transportation. camp equipage, subsistence,
etc, will be given as soon as possible.
