Tho Ventilated Court Rooms

Judge Ludlow, at the meeting of the
bar in Philadelphia, held on Wednesday,
speaking of the probability that the late
Judge Pratt had overworked himself, said !:
"When he came TO the bench [ trembled
for him, because the man who assumes
judicial duties in this county does 80 at the
peril Of his life ! and if there is any taint
of disease, pulmonary or otherwise, in his
constitution, it will certainly be developed
by the circumstances under which he is
forced to perform his duties" This state
ment, strong as 1t is will not surprise those
who have been compelled to attend court
for any length of time, and who have
breathed the fonl air IN which the judges
are compelled to follow their sedentary call
ing There is no ventilation in some of
the buildings except that which at the same
time exposes every one in court to danger
GUS draughts from open windows; the
rooms are crowded at nearly all times, and
the supply of fresh air can seldom be such
as is required to support in health all who
are obliged to breathe it. 1t is not improb-
able that some of the astounding verdicts
Of juries are in some sort a result of the foul
air they have been compelled to breathe
while listening to the evidence, for there is
nothing NOSE calculated to Supply the in
telligence of jurors not supplied with over
abundance of wit at the best. 1t is a
shame and disgrace that 1t should have to
be said in this century that the man who
assumes judicial duties anywhere does SO
at the peril of his life, but 1t is right to say
1t If it is true, so that the evil may be rem
edIed, and judicial life freed from the dan
gers of disease as it was once freed from
the danger of violence at the hands of the
lawless.

Suicides

Miss James Royce of Richford, Vermont,
attempted to make way with herself, while
at Abercorn, Canada, on the oh inst.
Chauncy Alfred, aged about twenty
seven years, son of s. d. Alfred of Fairfax,
and clerk in the store of his brother, ]. b.
Alfred, shot himself on Monday morning,
Mr.. J. B. Alfred on going into the store
and finding his brother absent, immediate
ly made search for him, and found him in
the barn. The ball entered the head Just
below the temple, and is supposed to be
lodged back of the eye. Hopes are en.er
tanned of his recovery. He has been 6fllic-
ted with fits for many years, which seemed
10 make him low spirited, and this was un-
doubtedly the cause of the rash act. He
always sustained good character and was
respected by all.
Mr.. Henry Howe, who committed sui
eide at Norway last week, was made insane,
it is thought by the recent death of his son,
Clinton Howe.
Mr.. John Moore, a respected citizen of
Highgate, aged 80 years, and a widower,
residing with his son George, near the
Springs, hung himself, last Thursday after
noon. He disappeared about one o'clock,
and about 10 p. m, his lifeless body was
found up stairs, in an old store house, sus-
pended by rope fastened at one end to a
nail in the wall, and then passed over a
rafter. Old age and childish dependency
is assigned as the probable cause.
Joshua Browning of Hubbardton, Mass
committed suicide by hanging on Wednes-
day morning. When found his body was
warm, but life was extinct. He was eighty
years of age, and has been in poor health
for some time.

The Rev. William ]. Kidder of North
field, formerly a stationed preacher of Ithe
Vermont conference in this place, occu-
pied the pulpit at the Methodist church in
the forenoon Sunday the 10 inst, and
preached very interesting and instructive
sermon from Cor. iva, 1.-THE glorious
gospel of Christ" was the foundation and
principal theme of his remarks, though the
context in connection Herewith was occa-
sionally briefly noticed. Often in years
past have we with much pleasure sat and
listened to his eloquence, and have protited
thereby, but never can we remember
through all his ministrations and lsbors OF
love and warning to the impenident, have
we thought he seemed more fully possessed
of that "fullness of Christ" as on this occa-
zion. We think II one of the best and
'ablest sermons that ever fell from his lips,
though his years number many, and soon
he will be gathered to his fathers. AS he
passed along and wove the gospel web, with
that strength and tirmness characteristic Of
the man, and as the remarks fell from his
lips with that dlgnifed solemnity he is wont
to maintain and express.
At the close of the morning service, the
sacrament of the Lords Supper was admin
istered, and eighteen young converts re-
ceived the ordinance of baptism at the hands
