CABoT.-Nearly all the butter in town has been
bought at prices ranging from thirteen to seven
teen cents per pound. The sudden rise in the
price made business quite active for few days.
... The custom blacksmith shop on Main street
has been closed and the tools removed to the
carriage shops. The potato and wheat crops
are large this year Levi j. Walbridge is getting
yield Of three hundred bushels of potatoes to
the acre. n. b. Rogers reports forty-two bushels
and nine pounds of wheat as the product of one
acre-a much larger yield per acre than any
Western farm can produce. Owing to change
of time on the Montpelier & Wells River railroad,
the stage leaves here at s. 40 A. NJ, and the mail
arrives here at noon. The stage to connect with
the express train to Montpelier has been discon-
tnued. Allen Perry is now in Boston, where
he has gone to have cataract removed from his

is likely to prove success. Charles Sas has

Observation-Disclosures Cole has just returned
from Illinois where he has been for about year.
.,. But few towns can boast Of two more natural
artists than Miss Eta Moore and Master Jesse
Pike Of this place. Miss Moore began as poor
girl and has worked her way to where she is ex-
celled by few or none in the state in copying and
enlargng with crayons. Master Jesse Pike is but
fourteen years old. yet his first picture, which is
on exhibition at Mrs c. S. Adams ladies store,
shows wonderful genius and promises great
things for the future. IA week ago last Saturday
night some Of the boys put their heads together,
and concluding that boating Sundays was very
wicked, they resolved to take temptation out Of
the way, so they took Albert shepard's boat and
put it up in the cupola of Frank Coles blacksmith
shop, and being afraid it might rain. they very
kindly took about twelve thousand shingles which
were piled up in the mil-yard and carried them
back into the mill and packed them up again.

Moral Paralysis.

Messrs. Editors 1T is difficult to rise out Of the
" minor kew" in which, according TO your re-
porter. the Rev. Mr.. Wright ended his sermon
Sunday morning, September 2sth. The Thought
full nearer must revert again and again to his
statement Of expenditures for the support Of the
six Christian churches Of Montpelier during the
last ten years. and now that 1t appears in the
columns of the wArcHMAS II is to be hoped that
many citizen will open his eyes TO the painful
Significance" Of the fact that with an outlay OF
100000 for the preaching Of the gospel OF Christ,
we are not only without appreciable moral i'm
provement, but we must own to the still greater
depression OF sharper and sharper discord between
the moral condition OF the town and the precepts
taught from its pulpits.
IL IL enough that our churches are well sup
ported. well kent and profusely decorated with
floral offerings' Is the work of the Christian to
be done principally inside the church Are the
Christian people OF MONTPELIER in no degree re-
sponsible for the moral atmosphere outside these
organizations? with religious zeal sufficient to

Green Mountain Cemetery.

Montpelier may well be proud Of her place Of
burial Her cemetery Is one Of the loveliest places
to be found in Vermont, Astounding, as our state
does, in the romantic and picturesque. We do
not believe any village or city In New England
can boast Of more fitting place wherein their
people can lay away the forms OF those loved,
but who have "gone before" than, just little
to the land Of " light and glory" The winooski,
just below glides by in quiet splendor. The
ground Is uneven as to necessitate some irregu-
larty in Its roads, but It is all the better for that
OF roads II has some six miles, four OF which are
graveled and in perfect order; and the other two
are good roads, but are allowed to grass over.
At the time Of our hasty visit, the gorgeous hues
Of autumn were added to the other beauties Of
the place. The foliage OF the trees was tinged
with many shades Of "purple and gold" which,
with the profuse shading OF evergreens, made the
picture one Of enrapturing beauty. This the first
week In October gives us some OF the finest days
OF the whole year 1t was on n lovely morning
that ushered in one of these splendid days, that
we took hasty stroll to this enchanting spot,
and wandered hurriedly among the head-stones
and monuments that mark the resting-places OF
40 many loved ones. But no, those are not their
resting-places Here rests only the =" broken
Baskets" from which the priceless jewels have
been taken and transferred to fairer climes. A
large part OF the graves bear evidence that these
who animated the crumbling forms Of those who
rest below are not forgotten. The marks Of affec-
ton and kind remembrance are unmistakable.
As we look upon costly monuments, like some we
hero behold, reflections and queries like those
will arise: Did this Forefather OF the hamlet "
build for himself counterpart to this monument
in the hearts and remembrances Of his fellow
men, by exemplfying in practical life, the beau
ties Of the golden rule? Unless he did something
Of this kind; did something to bless humanity
and benefit the world, In larger measure than
he cursed 1t by his sordid se6shness, those blocks
OF marble or granite had better been left un-
quarried At the time Of our visit, the ground
was becoming strewn with autumn leaves-em-
blematical Of the place. Those leaves beneath
our feet were proud in their beauty for while
but age and unvarying law have doomed them
to fall. Even so "flourishes and falls majestic
man" Traveller, II business OF pleasure takes
you to the capital of Vermont-to this quiet
village that nestles among our hills-fail not to
visit Green Mountain Cemetery. 1t will well
repay you. You can here appropriate much that
will cost you less than its real value.

CoRINTH.-The contested road from Cooksville
to Pike Hill mines has been commenced in good
earnest. The petitioners have stolen a march
upon the road committee appointed at the June
court. The committee surveyed and staked a
place for road, but OF course no report can be
made until the December court. The petitioners
have written permit from the land-hoders to
build this fall where the commissioners set their
stakes; and the understanding is whether correct
or not, that President Ely or the Vermont Cop
per Mining Company foot the bills for the pres
ent. Perhaps this is the shortest way out of the
difficulty. II the commissioners report favorably
and the court accept the report, we will have the
road some time.
