One DAY last week occurred the eleventh
anniversary of the settlement over the First
Baptist church OF this city Of its present
pastor, the Rev. NJ A. Wilcox and we
are reminded by it Of the exceptionally
loug tenure of Burlington pastorstes. The
senior In point Of continue Gus service is the
Rev. George B Stafford, of the College
Street Congregational church, who was
settled December 26th, 1860. and who il,
consequently, nov serving his eighteenth
year. The Rev. l.. G. Ware. of the Uni
tartan church, was settled November 4th,
1868. and is therefore ia the fifteenth year
OF his Passionate IA term equalled, we
belisse, BY bat one Of his predecessors, tho
Rev. DR.. G. g. Ingersoll, who served
twenty-five yearsl. The Rev. Edward R.
Atwill was installed rector of st. Paul's
church November 9Th, 1867. the only previ-
Gus term of greater length being that of tie
late Ri Rev. Bishop Hopkins, who acted as
rector OF Sc. PauPs Tor twenty-six years.
The Rev. l.. o. Brastow. of the Winooski
Avenue Congregational church. was settled
November 5tb, 1873 As matter OF course,
the Methodist church, from the character
of its gov ernment, has had no long pastor

We are able now to state on the best au-
thorlty that Col. George A. Merrill, OF Rut-
land. will yield to;the wishes of numerous
and influential friends throughout the State
and allow his name TO be presented to the
convention. Col. Merrill is well and most
fsvorably known thrOug bout the State. A.
superintendent of the Passumpsic and Rut-
land and Burlington Railroads, and Presi-
dent OF the Vermont State Agricultural
Society. also of the Howe Scales Works
which latter office he now fills, he has
shown himself to possess executive ability
of high order, while socially and intellec-
tually he is worthy the suffrages of Yer
mont Repu blicans. lie is no politician and
will resort 20 none OF the arts of that class
to secure a nomination, but his friends will
rely, and We believe they can do so with
confidence, upon the Independent yeomanry
to recoG nize hi. eminent fitness for tho Office
of Governor.
Col. Merrill is good man. Tho Standard
does not praise him too highly. But We do
not soc what can be gained for him or any
Rutland county candidate, BY bringing him
out now. Clearly the most that could be
accomplished by it, in the present attitude
of affairs, would be to make it certain that
no Rutland county man could receive the
nomination. We esteem Col. Merrill too
highly to wish to see him brought out SIM
ply to kill off another worthy Rutland man /;
or in any way that would be likely to injure
his own chances when-as We trust may be
hereafter the ease-his name can be pre-
scented with the substantial backing Of the
Republicans of his county.
