Out of number comprising twenty-five

this not an encouraging sign? 1t does in

4 Popular System OF Finance.

1T. IFIUIS II TIIIOtICsIIIf III
Wendell Phillips explained his financial
system 10 Boston a few days ago. He wants
cheap money and low interest, and to Sc
cure these he demands that coin money be
abolished and S2,CO0,OO0,OO0 geeenbacks,
never to be REDEEMED, be issued. This he
thinks would bring the rate OF interest
down to per cent.

CONGRESS-.

Congress met on Monday last and
began at once its business, which had
been matured since the last adjournment
by the several committees. Several ap-
preparation bills have been passed, and
other legislation has been begun. 1t is
generally thought that the present ses-
sion will close in March, and that no
extraordinary legislation will be attempt
ed. There is some prospect that the
Potter investigation will go on. and that
the celebrated Tilden "cipher" dispatch
es will be put into the pot for a new
variety of political soup. The Presidents
message is very generally commended
for its clearness, fairness, and for its
general good sense. No one is able to
see any great need of much new legisla-
ton, and if Congress will content itself
with doing little. it will do the country
less harm than by attempting much. The
anti-resumptionists and greenbackers
are not strong enough, even if they de.
sired it to prevent resumption taking
place Jan. lst, and they propose to let
the experiment proceed, and be judged
by its results.
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1878-12-09

The only other specially interesting
portion of this part of the message is
that relating to the Mexican border
troubles. The President congratulates
the country upon having escaped from
serious troubles with our Southern neigh
bors, and reports that the condition of
affairs upon the Rio Grande border is
better than 1t has been for many years.
The Presidents discussion of finance
in his message is chiefly confined to the
subject of the resumption of specie pay
ment. The fact, already universally
known, that the Government is ready on
the | st of January next to redeem its
notes in specie, is announced, and it is
also stated that no legislation is needed
or desired. After the first of next month
all kinds of Government money, gold,
standard silver dollars and legal-tender
notes, will be treated as equal. The
creditors of the United States will be
paid in either, whichever they prefer.
The President does Lot discuss the silver
question, but remarks that he has not
changed his mind on that subject since
sending his veto message to Congress
during the late session. He does not
think that legislation in regard to the
silver dollar is necessary now, and he
does not recommend any.
The condition of the several depart.
meats of the government is mentioned
and the most important recommends
tions of the secretaries of war and the
navy, the postmaster-general. the secre.
tary of the interior and the attorney
general are noticed and Endorsed.
Each of the subordinate departments
or bureaus, the agricultural, the educa
tional bureau, etc., is also briefly no.
ticed, and the generous treatment O
them by Congress is recommended.
Among the miscellaneous recommen
dations, the most important are thos'
urging Immediate appropriations for {
Congressional library building, and TO
building to receive and exhibit tn
treasures now possessed by the nationa
museum.
The last subject treated of in tn
message is the District of Columbus
The President says that the new forr
of government has not been long enoug
in operation to enable him to pass a
intelligent judgment upon it. No i'm
portant charges are recommended. Som
public improvements in the district al
referred to approvingly, the most in
portant being the improvement of th
fats along the banks of the Potomac

mer residence in some parts of Washing
: ton hazardous.

Gently. bone of some unknown animal
was dug out nine feet below the surface.
The formation in which it was found is
glacial sand and boulders. One boulder
was SO large that it had to be reduced in
size before it could be removed. This
boulder was originally from the con-
glomerate formation extending along the
west side Of the Green Mountains In
Starksboro, Lincoln and Ripton. The
different layers of earth lying above this
bone had never boon diturbed since de-
posted there during the glacial period.
This is one of the most remarkable In
stances of antiquity of vertebrate remains
yet coming to light in the state, and by
far antedates the fossil whale and ele-
plant found many years ago.
