to undertake fresh trial of strength. But
il Is undeniablc that the course OF the

the sectional feeling which, at the North al
least, was dying away. The best safeguard
to-day for the Union is the growing power
Of the North and West. The Southerners

Mayor Hatch, as We have had occasion to
say before now, writes an excellent message,
and his last is one of his best. The exhibit
which he makes Of the condition Of the
various departments is clear and generally
satisfactory and while he gives due credit
to the city officers who have contributed to
the success of the departments, 1t is to be
remembered that credit is also due to the
Mayor for careful supervision, and for an
influence steadily cxerted on the side OF
economy and efficiency. The various recon-
incnlations made by the Mayor have, oil
course, been read and noted by our city
readers, and we Feed only commend to es-
pecial favor the excellent advice in the clos
ing paragraphs OF the message, in regard to
the duty of economical management OF the
CITY finances, careful counting of the cost oil
improvements, and "payiDg as We go.
Observance Of these rules is the clearesi

OF the Phair case at the expense OF the
public-expense not only in the money cost
to the State Treasury Of these proceedings,
prolonged through nearly five years, but in
the encouragement Of criminals and in IL
jury to the reputation of our common
wealth. Thousands of persons who have
seen only one-sided and false statements OF
the case, will receive the news OF Phair 5
execution in the full belief that the State of
Vermont has hung an innocent and worthy
man, to satisfy blOod-thirsty desire on the
part Of her inhabitants for victim. The
wrong thus done cannot DO easily repaired !;
but there is ground for congratulation among
our law abiding people that this remarkable
attempt to interfere with justice has failed

onger ground to fear that murderer as
desperate and cunning as John P. Phair will
be let loose upon our community.
