LIGHrSING Ron Men IN VRRMoNr.-The
southern section of Vermont is now under
an excitement over the lightning rod bust
ness. About one year ago company came
through this section of the State with as
much pomp and circumstances as a caravan
or circus. Some of their CARRIAGE carried
the rods and other material, some the work
men and others the proprietors, and horses,
carriages and paraphernalia, marshalled
decked and arranged In an imposing manner
30 as to captivate the verdant Yankees In
Rutland county the company had with them
well-known auctioner of Rutland, who
said lac happened along on his own bust
ness, but would take occasion to warn the
people to protect themselves from the light
ming of heaven. The company took nego-
table notes, payable In one year, but made u
verbal promise To walt ten years for pay
ment. The promise rs against note would
amount to nothing, and they also warranted
the material, and agreed to readjust and re-
pair the rods if they should get out of place
Many of them have done so, as they were
hurriedly and carelessly put up. This might
lie n defence. 50 far as il would go, but the
notes were negotiated before due, and this,

The MALLETTs Bay MARBLE QrAsEIEs.-
Mr.. Thomas Fuller, of Albany, and Col. &.
|. Balch, of Troy, who are largely interested
in the Malletts Bay marble quarries, were at
the Van Ness House. yesterday They have
just perfected the purchase of 100 acres and
the mining right on large additional estate
giving them the control for quarrying pur-
poses of between 800 and 600 acres. The
marble embraces great number of varieties,
ranging from light pink TO dark green 4; and
the first step of the new proprietors will be
to thoroughly prospect their properly and
lay it out, so that any desired shade may be
promptly quarricd. Part of the marble will
be finished here and part shipped To New
York. The Malletts lay marble is certainly
as beautiful and as free from mperfections
as can be found anywhere and we hope
that the long unused quarries will soon give
employment TO Il host Of workmen.

SENATOR EpMuNDs being interviewed by a
Tribune correspondent. "A day or two since,
said that in regard to the Legislative bill, the
course he would advise would depend en-
tirely upon the form in which the restrictive
features should he drawn blythe Democrats.
Ifthe bill should simply provide with more
definiteness than usual for the necessary eN-
penses of the Government, emitting all men
ton of the supervisors or deputy marshals,
and thereby making no appropriations for
the payment of these officials, he could see
no reason why the Republicans should not
vote for it after trying to amend it. If, how
ever, the bill should he passed. with clause
forbiddng the expenditure of money Tor the
payment of supervisors and deputy mar
shals, there would come another question,
upon which Republicans might have various
opinions.
In regard to the test oath, Mr. Edmunds
was not unwilling that it should he repealed,
but if the attempt should be made to modify
the Jurors law in a manner in which 1t was
recently done in the Legislative bill, he said
the proposition should he combated. The
plan of the Democrats for drawing jurors,
Mr. Edmunds said, was never before heard
of in any country. The proposition that SIX
Jurors should he drawn from one particular
party, and six from another, would he calcu-
lated at once to impress upon the minds OF
the Jurors themselves that they were select
ed because of their political views and must
act accordingly.

as every lawyer understands, shuts off
all dcfences, except perhaps fraud
or entire want of consideration.
The probability is that tine dupes will
have their notes to pay. My own opinion is
that the rods are genuine article, sold for
twice or thrice what they were worth, and
that one-half or two-thirds of those who
bought them were in no condition to under
go such an expenditure. 1t has been esti-
mated that the company carried away from
Vermont notes to the amount of 800, 900.
This doubtless was guessed at; il might not
have been one-half that sum. The company
operated in the rural districts, and SO far as
know, did no work in the larger villages,
and, what may seem strange, they put up
rods for class of men the most parsimoni-
Gus to be found. But such men have n
blind side, and the lightning rod men found
