an unusually rich numher-the celebrated
Prize Essay of Edward StabIer, of this county,
upon the Renovation Of Worn-out Lands in
the old States, being the leading paper, This
essay is now republished in the old Faymer,

any necessity or any advantage to result from
any modification of it; subsequent experience
has not changed my views in regard to it,"
This snd other similar papers on the same
subject, published at the lime, was the awaken

The Campaign.--On Monday night the
keynote OF the Republican campaign in this
county was struck by Mr.. Urner and Capt. II .
G. Nail, of Frederick county The meeting,
which was held at the Court House and pre-
sided over by Jno G. England, Jr, was COM
posed of about two hundred persons, and was
rather a boiserous one. Mr.. Urner's speech
was devoted chiefly TO the financial question,
which appeared TO be a shrewd dodge for avoid
ing squarely meeting the charges brought
against the party of which he is the leader in
this district The close of his speech, however,
was addressed to the coored persons. He
painted to them their suIerngs in their days
of bondage, and haraugued them for their
support, because it was the Republican party
which liberated them, having found birth out
of sympathy for their trials, and which gave
them the ballot, &c. In fact the conclusion Of
this speech was a sorry attempt at the bloody
shirt style of defamation. After Mr. Urner,
Capt Nail was introduced and spoke about an
hour and fifteen minutes, at the conclusion Of
which the meeting adjourned.

The Circus.-Sells Brothers, circus gave
two exhibitions in Rockville on las; Saturday
TO very large audiences. The street parade
was extensive, containing many pleasing nov
elites, and the circus performance was Of such
8, character as to demand admiration and won
der. The menHgerie contained many rare and
beautiful specimens, 10 good condition and
very attractive. Every arrangement in con-
nection with this show displays commenda-
BILE regard for the comfort of she audience
There was in the performance Il pleasant lack
of vulgarity, and what was equally noticeable
was the absence of the catch penny gambling
contrivances usually attendant upon circuses.
The employees of the circus are well drilled,
and the managers are genial aud gentlemanly.
The courtesy extended by this show TO the
press is deserving of great praise and our
thanks.

ORLEANS COUNTY COURT.

Under an Indictment found by the
Grand Jury. Edison Darling of Hyde
park was arranged for trial for the dou-
BILE crime of burglary and larceny. and
plead not guilty. 1t being the only
criminal case to be tried, considerable
interest was rife. The evidence in be-
half of the State tended to show that
the r0spouduut broke iutv q. III. Kenls-
toms store at North Craftsbury and took
therefrom large amount of goods. A
portion of the goods were found in his
possession at Hydepark, and the remain
der were found in New Hampshire in
possession of his brother. The burglary
was committed in November, 1877. On
the day following the respondent moved
his brother to New Hampshire, and these
goods were supposed to have been in the
load. Respondent claimed that he pur-
chased a few goods of his brother, and
that was why the goods were found in
his possession. Respondent was acquit-
ed. w. R. Rowell, John Young and H.
G. Wilson for the State; ]. G. Burke
and VIM. w. Circuit for respondent.

Few people can have failed to notice
the great enterprise. if they have not
observed the scrupulous care which
Messrs. D. Lathrop s. Co. have publish
ed class of books adapted to the high
est culture of the people. 1t is only ten
years since they commenced the work of
publishing, and their list now numbers
more than six hundred volumes. We
are glad to make record, that brave
and persistent following of a high ideal
has been successful. Messrs. d. Lath-
rop & Co. have given special attention
to the publication of books for children
and youth, rightly considering that in
no department is the best, as regards
literary excellence and purity of moral
and religious reading, Of so great impor-
lance. Yet the names of works by such
authors as Austin Phelps, D. d. Francis
Wayland, and DIR. Nehemiah Adams on
their catalogue, will show that maturer
readers have been cared for. Of their
work projected for the coming season we
have not room to speak in detail; it will
suffice for the present to say that it is
wide in range. including substantial and
elegantly illustrated books, all in the
line of the practical and useful and frest
in character and treatment. Their two
juvenile magazines, Vide Aacoke ane
Ba6ylaad, are warmly welcomed in ev
cry part of the English speaking world
We advise any of our readers who desir'
to know more about these publications
to send to D. Lathrop & Co., Boston
for an illustrated catalogue.

Mr.. Mack does not brag, but his work

South Hardwick is still suffering for
the want of respectable and convenient

amount of business at this station, but
it has depot accommodation that are a
a disgrace to the road and the town.

LETTER FROM NEW YORK.
Special Correspondence.

NEW York, Sept. 16, 1878.
The march of science and discovery
seems in late years to be of the double
quick order, and in view of what has
been accomplished, | suppose we have
no right to be astonished at anything
which may happen. Still one can hard
ly help being startled at the latest pro.
position of the Edison gang, which is
nothing more nor less than cool propo-
sal to take the motive force of Niagara
Falls, or any other water power for
that matter, and distribute it, by means
of wires, to the factories and workshops
of the country, where it is to displace
the steam engine. Edison calculates
that the power of Niagara is equal to
all the power generated by the consump-
ton of coal throughout the world, and
he claims it to be comparatively SIM
pie problem to turn this force into cleo
tricity and carry it over cables to any
required points, and there make it oper-
ate electric engines which shall turn all
the wheels and spindles in the country
if necessary. Beside doing this. the
| same current, according to his plan,
would be used to illuminate the facto-
ries instead of oil or gas, and with a
hundred-fold more intensity. Indeed it
seems that this very miracle has already
been wrought by Connecticut manufact-
nrer who thus uses waterfall a quar-
ter of mile from his factory to generate
electricity, which being brought to his
premises, turns all his shafting and
makes the place as light as day.
Another scheme lately presented for a
second time to the city government
savors of the same startling novelty as
that of electric transmission of power.
This is plan to lay pipes all over the
city which shall supply steam for heat
ing and cooking purposes to all resi-
dences desiring to avail themselves Of
the privilege and dispense with ranges
and furnaces. I believe there is good
prospect of a charter being formed t.
carry this project into effect. The mex
thing will be probably proposition
, from some enterprising individual to la.
another set of pipes to carry lager bee
and gin cocktails to the dining room
and sleeping apartments of the wicked.
Verify the world does move. Wha
glimpses such discoveries as these Civ
, us of the mechanical hereafter! Wit
what pity and even contempt will gu
grand and great grand children loo

of us nineteenth centuryites with GU
feeble and clumsy steam engines, GU
snail-like railroads and steamboats,, AM
