II We recently repeated report of
the suicide of Henry Guimond, at which
a relative took umbrage and very po-
litcly requested us TO publish denial
Of the story, on pain of unpleasant con-
sequences. We therefore avail our
selves of the following from last weeks
Argus, which We trust will fill the bill,
and to which we would only add that
we should be pleased OH our own ac-
count to learn that the unsuicidcd
young gentleman was within reach of
one Of our officers of the law:
The papers had it that Henry
Guimond, formerly of Richmond,
Northfield, Winooski, Burlington, and
some other places where he has in
dulged in his "dead beat" practices,
had committed suicide in Georgia. Ii
did not seem possible to us that SO era
ven and pusillanimous q fellow as he
could ever summon up courage enough
to rid the world of his pestiferous self,
and we were right, the Free Press say
ing that it has "the best authority" Tor
saying that the suicide story was false C.
Henry Guimond will deceive those who
befriend him, dishonesty appropriate
money that he has no right to, practice
the arts of the confidence man, and act
generally as IL he were a lineal descend
ant of the evil one himself. We have
the material for very purgent tale OF
this fellow, and some time may tell it,

ing ii better can be had. even the stu
dent, coming from the years studies
with muscles unstrung and unaccus-

command the wages paid to ablc-bodied

lege students to wait upon tables is so
large that they can command greater
wages in that capacity than in the &C.
equations the Herald admires, they
would be fools to undertake in prefer
ence a business, however "virile" II
may DC, TO which it would take some
time 10 accustom their muscles, III
which there is no demand for them and
only low wages TO be earned. Waiting

why waiting upon table is no. just a

CR The Vermont National, which
has been started less than two months,
has got so far along in grcenback
finance that it is able TO explain by an
unique course of reasoning that the
element of value in a gold dollar-or
any other dollar-is the inscription
"One Dollar" stamped on the coins
As they conclusively remark:
ave are constrained to believe ther
that neither gold, silver, paper nor any
other metal or material is absolute
money, but the inscription placed upor
either of these metals or materials il
the only absolute money"
This is the finest thing in greenbacl
foolishness we have seen recently, ant
1t gives reason to hope that when tht
National shall fail to realize the supper
il calls for from Vermont Greenbackers
it will be able to transform itself int,
the organ of some luna.ic asylum.

B- II is pleasing to see the attempts
Of some of our state Democratic ex-
changes to explain that the murder of
Dixon was not n political murder, but
that Dixon was bal man and deserv-
ed to be killed. They seem 10 think
that if man in the South deserves to
be killed it is right for anybody to kill
him. They take very kindly to defend
ing lawlessness and party proscrip-
ton in the south, TO say the least. if
these fawning sycoppants 10 the va
ZOO "chivalry" had virtue enough 10
look for moment upon such doings as
they really are, they would perhaps lie
ashamed of themselves for the devilisl
part they take in defending murder as
apoliical force. Better leave that kind
of business to the barbarians of tic
South, who seem to have no idea OF
what Republican form OF government

Ty The Rutland Herald and Glol.c


IT, The Rutland Herald and Glol c,
which has a mission 10 give advice TO
colleges, college students, and 10 every
thing connected with colleges, shows
its usnal Judicial wisdom and loft, vs-
innate of the value of manhood in the
following, from an editorial with the
epigrammatic heading, GA Worker or

1t is announced that undergraduates
OF Harvard University serve during
their vacation as walters in the While
Mountain hotels at $40 month; the
scholastic servants do not seem 10 be
distinguished from other mcnias save
that they decline to receive gratuitics
upon the ground "that when a gentle
man turns servant he must draw the
line somewhere" 1t seems TO us that
the praise lavished on these young men
who are willing TO wait on hotel tables
In order to get through college is alto
gether too profuse. There are some
things quite as important for u man to
possess as passion for college lore,
and among these ought to be repug-
nance for an able bodied man To wait
upon anybody's table, so long as there
is any work nearer his intelligence to
lie got, or, missing that, any work thai
IS some virility about it. If there is
