Cornwall, VI. June II 1877.

A report ola Connecticut divorce suit
that suddenly and remarkably collapsed
says: "At this stage of the proceedings
Judge Carpenter remarked that he
wished to say word. He had been
thinking about this matter, he said, with
a particular reference TO possibility of
bringing about an amicable settlement
before either party's character should
be stained before the world by the pro-
posed array of unclean evidence. lie
spoke feelingly of the children, and sug-
gested that for their sake the counsel
retire 20 see whether reconciliation or
an amicablc agreement could not now
be made. Honest tears rolled down
the Judges cheeks as he referred to his
own domestic relations and his mother
less children. While he was talking,
sobs were heard in the rear of the room
Mrs. Trumpy was convulsed with
weeping. The women in the court room
sobbed audibly, and even the hardened
counsel Bonded close down to their pa
pers and stealthily wiped their eyes.
Judge Carpenters words and manner
were affecting in the extreme. The
counsel retired, and after consultation
among themselves and with their chiefs,
in due time announced that an amicable
settlement had been accomplished

III Charles Reade, in ,Harper's Maya
zine for July, says "that to open the
study and practice of medicine to wo-
men folk under the infallible safeguard
Of public examination will be to rise IN
respect for human rights to the level of
European nations, who do not brag
about just freedom half as much as we
do, and to respect the constitutional
rights of many millions of citizens who
pay taxes like men," 1t is difficult to
see why the medical and all the other
professions should not be open alike to
men and women, as they find their
tastes and their capacities adapt them.
The sterncr sex has almost monopolized
professional work, and not wholly with
out reason. The rule is, undoubtedly,
that women are not constitutionally adj
apted to the severer labors of these pro-
LESSONS, so that if they are to go into
them they must take up specialties and
still leave certain departments TO the
men. Ii must be conceded, however,
that many women ore better fitted than
many men for much of the work of
professional life. In medicine, except
in the department of surgery, those wo-
men who have had the courage to bravo
the prejudices of ignorance and thought
lessness have almost invariably at
length succeeded and won the respect
of the people, and, to n considerable ex-
tent, lived down the prejudices which
at first hindered the successful prosecu-
ton Of their work. the eradication
Of unreasoning prejudice ever does be-
come general and the study and prac-
tice Of medicine by females Is relieved
Of the restraints of the conventionalities
Of long time customs, we shall then re-
alze the progress and improvement to
which Mr.. Reade refers In the follow
ing:
It will also import into medical SCI
ence q new and less theoretical, but
cautious, teachable, observent kind of
intellect; 1t will give the larger half OF
the nation an honorable ambition and
All honorable pursuit, toward which
their hearts and instincts are bent by
Nature herself: it will tend to elevate
this whole sex, and its young children,
male as well as female, and so will adj
vance the civilization Of the world,
which, in ages past, In our own day,
and in all time, hath and doth and will
keep step exactly with the progress OF
women toward mental equality with
men.

~ A decision has been reached in
the case Of the petition of the Central
Railroad Company receivers and manag-
er for an order of sale of the Vermont
Central and Vermont and Canada rail-
road property to pay trust or ownership
debts. The hearing was before Chan
eellor Homer +. Royce at the regular
term of the court of chancery for Frank
lin county, on the 18th, 18th and 18th
days of May last. The decretal order is
as follows:
First-That the trust debt accrued and
accruing in the administration of the
Vermont Central and Vermont and Cam
ada railroads under the receivership
thereof, as set forth in said petition, is a
legal and binding debt, and constitutes
charge and first lien upon the Ver-
mont Central and Vermont and Canada
railroads, their privileges and appurten-
ances, and the equipment appertaining
thereto.
Second-That the court Of chancery
has power TO satisfy said lien by a sale
Of said railroads, equipment and other
property, and that q sale may be order
ed under this petition.
Third-That the amount and charac-
ter Of the trust debt is shown by the
proofs, and inability Of the petitioners TO
provide for the same furnishes an occa.
sion and full justification for sale, and
that the priorities as between different
Interests sufficiently appear from the
proof and prior proceedings in the case.
FOURTH am therefore Of opinion that
on the allegations and proofs the petit
toners are entitled 10 the relief asked
for, and that the prayer of the petition
ought TO be granted. But II is highly
important 10 all interested, that the
questions Of the validity and priority OF
the trust debts referred to in the petit
ton should be determined and settled
before any sale Of the property is bad,

From Northern New York.

The following extract from q private
letter Is Of such public interest that we
take the liberty TO give it TO our read
ers:
Fort Covington, situated on Salmon
river, near its mouth, Is one Of the old
est towns In Northern New York. Du-
ring the war of 1912 II was place of
importance. Troops were stationed
here, and the fort was occupied. Just
at this time II Is favorite amusement
for the people to go down the Salmon
into the noble st. Lawrence, and there
fish for muscallonge, or muskallonge,
or muskelunjch, or muskinonge, take
either name. like at times TO be crit
ical, SO have given you Webster's
knowledge. The fish, however, Is no.
Bile fellow. You throw out line from
your boat and let il troll, say two hun
dred feet behind you in the water.
When fish weighing twenty, thirty or
forty takes hold you soon know 1t. The
music is grand. If you are at all human
you feel thrill of the nerves, and are
anxious to get the gaff hook into him
and haul him into the boat before the
hook gives way or line breaks. shall
not now disclose how many of these
''lunges," as the natives call them,
hooked and brought in, on Saturday,
but l saw one just caught, weighing
twenty-five pounds. What jaws! fierce
and desperate, We took many picker
el. They call them pike here. The
river here is five miles wide and has
many beautiful islands. The ducks
and other waterfowl make II lively as
a farm-yard. The boats lighted up in
the night for spearing, ten or fifteen
around YOU at time, make the water
lively. II is nice place TO come for
recreation. Rev. MIR. Thomas has q
fine church and congregation. The mu-
steal ability of himself and wife is well
known in this and other states. We
worshipped here on the Sabbath.

II is stated that Senator Beck, of
Kentucky, was one of the democrats
not invited TO the Hendricks banquet
in New York, who, 1t appears, gave
mortal offence TO the democratic man
ayers in that city when he allowed a
letter, written by him, to be published,
In which he denounced what he calls
"the cowardice Of the New York poliii-
clans, who failed TO come to the front
when the presidential fight was really
Of its hottest, and thus lost the day,b
|, has also leaked out that Senator Beck
has been making overtures with certain
well known democratic leaders in the
Southern States TO make league with
the Western Democracy against the

The sutherland rnlIs Marble Co.

The acknowledgement OF Vermont,
Col. II. Proctor, Is the principal owner
and manager of the Sutherland Falls
marble company. Tho t. ono of the
largest, if not the largest, marble inter-
est in the state. Ever since he has had
charge of it he has been extending the
business, and notwithstanding he Is a
comparative novice in this line of trade,
he has proven himself one of the most
progressive marble dealers in the entire
country. When the Shanlys sold the
air COMPRISING machinery at the Hoo
sac tunnel, he purchased II and incor-
porated the system into the Sutherland
Falls works. The water power at the
falls is one of the most valuable In the
state. The power is used TO compress
the air, and then il is transmitted
through the pipes, which he purchased
of the Shanlys, TO the quarries and
there used TO run his stone-cuttcrs, dia-
mond drills and hosting machines.
During the past winter new marble
mill has been added TO the works. Mr..
Proctor is now about TO place new wa
ter wheels for the purpose of increasing
the power Of his air condensers and
providing power for his new mill. For
this purpose partial shutting down of
the works will be ordered within few
days until these improvements can be
contaminated, which il ia thought will
be completed within two months

very cordially by the host, who was
very cultivated man, a judge of the

but among whom no woman of the bet
