A PROCLAMATION BY THE GOVERNOR.

PROCLAMATION BY THE GOVERNOR.
The season of hope of the song of
birds and of the swelling of buds of
the breaking of the fallOw ground, and
of the scattering of seed ;-suggesting
mans dependence, demands humble
recognition of Gods universal PrOvi-
dence.
Therefore agreeably to the usage es
tablished by our fathers, L,
HORACE FAIRBANKS,
Governor of the State of Vermont, do
hereby designate FRIDAY, THE FIFTH
DAY OF APRIL NEXT, to be observed by
the people of this state as day of fast
ing, and of prayer to Almighty God.
Let us on that day abstain from
every unnecessary labor and employ
memt, and in private and in public
worship, by sincere repentance, seek
forgiveness and reconciliation through
our Lord Jesus Christ, and humbly i'm
plore the guidance and blessing of the
Father to rest upon us, as individuals
and as people, that He may establish
and pi Osper the work of our hands.
Let the remembrance that He search
eth the heart, fill us with penitence and
humble trust, that we may keep fast
acceptable in His sight. Then may
we approach Him with filial affec-
ton and devotion, and confidently
expect His blessing the continu-
ance of health of civil and relig-
iOus liberty of peace and plenty,
and of industrial and educational pros
perity.
Let us especially pray that He will
graciOusly vouchsafe to make and keep
us us individuals, and as a State and a
nation, inflexibly honest, even in times
offinancial depressiOn-sO shall efultill
our high destiny, and transmit to our
children unimpaired, the rich legacy
received from our fathers.
Given under my hand and the seal of
the State, at st. Johnsbury, this six
teenth day of March, in the year of
our Lord, one thousand eight hun
dred and seventy eight, and in the
one hundred and second year of the
Independence of the United States of
America.

An Adroit Robbery.

Saturday, while President Hall of the
Lechmere national bank of East Cam
bridge, Mass, sat alone in the parlor of
the bank, a man entered and asked Hall
to step out to transact business with a
lady Ill carriage. Hall accompanied
the man to the vehicle where the lady
began deliberately to count a roll of
money to pay, as she pretended, for a
draft. Hall could not wait and returned
to the bank. Soon after the carriage
drove hurriedly off. Suspecting some
thing wrong, Hall made an examination
and found $4,000 in money and securi-
ties stolen. 1t is supposed the job was
done by three men and the woman, two
of the men having hidden behind the
door in the hall of the bank. The pres
ident was absent only two minutes.

Anderson and His Associates Released.
THE CHARGE OF FORGERY FALLS TO THE
GROUND.


New ORLEANS, March 18.-The Su-
preme Court this morning was crowded
with members of the bar, politicians
and other persons anxious to hear the
decision in the case of the State versus
Thomas C. Anderson, convicted in the
Superior Criminal Court for publishing
as true forged and counterfeit election
returns from the parish of Vernon.
Chief Justice Manning read very
lengthy opinion in the case.
1t was ordered that the verdict of the
jury be set aside and reversed and the
prisoner discharged from custody.
The decision of the Supreme Court
to-day virtually ends the prosecution
against members of the Returning
Board. The order of the Court, how
ever, ordering the discharge of Gen.
Anderson does not release him at once,
the State having five days in which to
file application for Il re-hearing.

HONE INTERESTS.

CHICKEN BEAN SoUP.-Cut up your
chicken and put to cook in as much wa
ter as you want for your soup. Cook
about teacup of beans in separate
vessel until they begin to crack open,
then put them with the chicken; season
with salt, butter and pepper.
PoTATO SoUP.-Peel and slice s or
good-sized potatoes, put them over in
nearly quarts of water, cook until they
break to pieces. Season with salt, pep
per and butter, with an even tablespoon
of -four well mixed with cold water.
Some prefer to season it with q few
slices Of salt pork not very fat.
CHARLOTTE RUssE.-Make into q
cust,rd, 8 eggs, pound powdered sug-
ar, pint Of milk. Dissolve box
gelatine in 4 pint cold water, simmer
on the fire and strain into the custard,
and stir until cold. Whip to froth q
quart of cream, stir in the custard light
ly, flavor and set off to CONCEAL.
FRIED CAKEs.-Beat together2 eggs,
with cup of sugar; stir teaspoon
full of soda in II cups of sour milk but
ter the size of small egg, melted, and
mix all with -four enough to roll out;
add some grated nutmeg. After they
are fried, sprinkle with some cinnamon,
first, and then with powdered sugar.
GINGER NUTs.-Rub into II pounds
of flour, pound of butter, pound of
brown sugar, 8 tablespoonful of ginger,
l teaspoonful of cinnamon and cloves
(each), teaspoonful of black pepper.
Stir all into a pint of West India mo-
lasses, the piece of lemon, 1 teaspoon
full of soda, 2 of cream-tartar
PULLED BREAD.-Take from the oven
an ordinary loaf whenit is about half
baked and with the fingers, while the
bread is yet hot, quickly pull the half.
set dough into pieces of irregular shape
about the size of an egg. DO not at
tempt to smooth or fatten them-the
rougher their shapes the better. Set
them upon tins and place in very slow
oven and bake to a rich brown. This
forms deliciously crisp crust to eat
with cheese, milk or cream.
To PAINT A FLooR.-Get at paint
shop or drugstore / pound burnt UNI
Der, mix in a quart Of beer. Take
common paint-brush and paint your
floor all over, or leave every other board
as you like. 1t will be then light and
dark. Then take boiled linseed oil, 1
pint, and put it on the stove, and add /
pound beeswax; when melted, apply
with the brush to the whole floor. It is
nicer than paint in every way.

A Deaf Mans Musings.

He is rich who is poor enough to be
generous.
To extol ones own virtue is to make
a vice of it.
An act of kindness to shivering beg
gar child is profession of religion.
He who must use his eyes for ears
hears much that is lost among the noisy
rattle of speech.
AS rule, the man who asks for credit
in whisky-shop is beyond the hope of
redemption.
Make light of your infrmities if you
desire sympathy. Useless repinings ex-
cite disgust.
Take from what has been written, that
which has done mankind no solid good.
and a Saratoga trunk would easily hold
the rest.
Look out for the man who makes lib
eral use of the personal pronOun "I'' in
conversation, for the chances are that
he is liar.
81 leave to my heirs an abundance of
hate, envy and legal strife," would be
an appropriate clause in the last wills of
most rich men.
There is somewhere fool-key to your
friends nature, and if you can find it
you can make him dance to any tune
you whistle.
A girls signs are melodies to her low
er's ears, and her tears are kissed away
as sweet waters.
When man reaches the age of SO it
is time for him to make up his mind as
to what manner of old man he would
like to be and put himself at once into
training.-NeU York World.
