CONFESSION.

Since Mrs. Tilton has unburdened
her soul of the guilt that was eating
away her moral vitals, confessions are
becoming popular, and as far down in
latitude and political depravity as Flor
ida, the desire to confess something is
advancing. Last week some of the
Florida returning board" made their
confession, and claim that they were in
strumental in counting the State for
Hayes, when it ought to have been re-
turned for Tilden. Their revelations are
not entirely new. and produce no great
excitement among those who are best
acquainted with the facts. 1t turns out
that the parties making the statements
in regard to what they call frauds. are
among the disappointed applicants for
Office. They belong to the carpet bag
brigade, and are not in great esteem by
nithor political WING
But then, there is no doubt about
the fact that there was great deal Of
iniquity in regard to elections in Florida
as well as most of the southern states,
during the elections, and probably the
Republicans did fair share Of it. One
thing, however, is generally conceded
and that is that free untrammeleC
election gives Republican majority.

REPEAL OF THE BANKRUPT
LAW.

The Senate having already repealed
the Bankrupt Act, it is very probable
the House will do so, and the bankrupt
business cease for time. While there
are some instances where bankruptcy is
beneficial to the interests of business, it
is getting to be pretty generally believed
that it is working harm in almost every
locality. So many persons have taken
advantage of this act under suspicious
circumstances that it has gone into dis
repute. In a majority of cases where
voluntary bankruptcy has been asked, it
is generally known that the bankrupts
have largely increased their Indebtedness
just previous to their failure. showing
that they are dishonest in unnecessary
ly increasing their debts at this time.
There is no question about the fact that
many have concealed large sums of
money, gone through bankruptcy. and
then set sail on capital that was more
dishonesty obtained, than by theft or
highway robbery. Others have taken
greater risks, on account of the bank
rupt law, feeling that they could fall
into bankruptcy in case of disaster, there
by wounding or destroying honest men
whose confidence they were betraying.
Bankruptcy is always an asylum fol
the dishonest, though it may in some in.
stances afford relief to the honest. 1t is
probably true that while one man has
been benefited by the law, four have
been injured by it, and unless some
means can be devised to remedy the
evils of the law, it ought to be repealed
In 1876 the legislature of this stat
enacted law on insolvency, which wa
intended to cover the virtues, while i
expunged the evils of the national Bank
rupt Act. By the state law, courts 0
insolvency are established In the variou
probate districts, and the estate of a.
insolvent is settled in manner similar
and with about the same trouble and ez
pense that attends the settlement of tn
estates of deceased persons. The &C
was drawn with great care and wi
doubtless prove useful in this state
J should the national act be repealed.

PARIS EXPOSITION.

In 1867 the number of visitors was
over 100000, the exhibition being
omen 2ln days. At Philadelphia there
were about 100000 less visitors than
this, but the Centennial was open only
l59 days, making tho average 10000
each day against $4,000 for Paris. But
this years fair will probably far exceed
the one of 1867. The main building is
nearly twice as large as then, and the
magnificent Palace of the Trocadero is
in no way to be compared with the
tame structure of eleven years ago. In
1867 the admissions were 100000
more than at any other worlds fair that
has ever been held except the one in
Philadelphia, and were about 100000
more than at Vienna in 1874. When
the first exhibition ever held in Paris
took place, in 1898, a small court Of
Louvre was sufficient for its wants.
The catalogue comprised only twenty
four pages. and there were only twenty
silver medals awarded. One gold medal
was offered, and was for the man who
would strike the most fatal blows tc
English industry. Times and sentiments
have changed. One of the most sympa
thizing friends that France haC
in her late disastrous war was England
and England has been one of the mos
forward nations in responding to tn,
Exhibition invitations. Germany ha
been slow to advance. At the beginnin,
no step was taken or promised. Blu
finally the advances of the Count de st
Vallie to the Imperial Court have beef
followed by approval from the Emperor
and Germany will be represented.

VERMONT POLITICS.

The st. Adams Messenger, which has
a strong personal bias for Bradley Bar
low of st. Adams, for representative
from this district, thus treats of Vermont
politics and gracefully disposes of Gen.
Grout, who it doubtless presumes might
be formidable rival to Mr.. Barlow,
should he enter the field against the
Messengers candidate
This is Vermont's political year, and
the nominating conventions, though not
yet called, will be held in few weeks.
The Governor, Lieutenant-G Governor and
Treasurer are to be chosen, besides three
Congressman, Legislature which is to
elect United States Senator to succeed
Mr.. Morrill,, and the usual county officers.
The canvass for Governor, Lieutenant
Governor and Members of Congress has
been going on for some time among men
accustomed to figure in politics, and
many of the newspapers have expressed
preferences.
For Governor, there seems to be a
general drift in favor of the present
Lieutenant-Governo Colonel Red6eld
Proctor, of Rutland. He is native Of
Windsor county, about fifty years of age,
graduate of Dartmouth College, law
yer, though not in practice, was CON-
mander of the Fifteenth Regiment Of
Vermont Volunteers in the war Of the
rebellion, aud is now the general mana
ger and principal proprietor of the ex.
tensive marble quarry and mills al
Sutherland Falls, in Rutland. He is a
sagacious, conservative and worthy man
and though he may encounter some op.
position of the kind that is fabricated
by aspirants for the place, his nomina
tion seems TO US to be as certain as any
future event, and one which will rehect
credit upon the Republican party anc
our steady old state.
Several gentlemen have been named
as possible candidates for Lieutenant
Governor, of whom the most prominen
though without his seeking and rattle
against his wish-is General William
w. Grout, of Barton. He Is a success
full lawyer, in large practice, and is ais
cultivating and adjoining his paterDa
acres. He was lieutenant-colonel of tn
regiment commanded by Colonel Proctor
and was afterward brigadier-general {
Vermont militia. He has for sewers
years been prominent member of bot
houses of the legislature. and is now on
Of the commissioners TO build house
correction for the state, at Rutlan,
During the last session of the legislatul
he was president pro tempOre of Il
Senate. hence it would be in the line
promotion as we'll as preference, so f;

as we can discover, to put him on the
ticket with his old companion in arms.
The Treasuryship is not discussed; it
seldom is, long before the convention.
The present incumbent, Hon. John A.
Page, of Montpelier, has held it long
time and given universal satisfaction"
The Messenger thinks Colonel Joyce
will be reelected, is not sanguine as to
Mr.. Denison's case, on the ground of his
Incidence, and failing to command the
respect his abilities warrant; and init
mates that Mr.. Bradley Barlow would
be an excellent selection in the third
district

years OF agt

The extensive defalcations and en-
barrassment in the Union Mills at Fall
River, Mass, have been followed by the
failure of the Border City and Sycamore
Mills of the same place. George I.
Hathaway, the Treasurer Of these Mills
which were under the same Director
ship-has so conducted the finances of
the corporations that they are probably
irretrievably ruined. the amount of in
debtedness being larger in both cases
than the corporate property and the
Directors can be made to carry. Mr..

in which money is involved to look more
narrowly into the state of their affairs ?
