Of some general propositions. The reve-
nues Of the State, in the main, are derived
from taxes imposed upon the property and
business OF the citizens Of the State. The
taX-aSsessors and the taX-collectors are lin
tied by the act OF the Legislature imposing
taxes. Neither can step one inch to the
right or left OF the line prescribed by the
taxing power-the Legislature. The reve-
nues of the State are not only derived I'M
der and by virtue of the authority OF the
Legislature, by which the power of the
ministerial officers are limited in the levy
ing and collecting OF said revenues, but
said revenues, when collected, are subject
to the will and disposition OF The Legisla-
ture under the Constitution. And as no
assessing or collecting officer of the State
can transcend the limits OF the legislative
will declared in the tax bill, so no d!sburs-
ine officer can transcend the Legislative
will. as declared In the appropriation Dill
or bills.

1t seems that the unexpended balance Of
the contingent fund now remaining in the
Treasury is by no mans sufficient. The
first instalment OF bonds, which will be de-
llvered about June 5th, will cost about
$1,000. There can be no doubt the Trea-
surer will be guided by the opinion of the
Attorney General in this matter. Without
further consultation with the Governor,
the Capitol officers are not prepared to say
what course will in that event be pursued; !;
but it is almost certain that the funding will
not be allowed TO be delayed.

Obituary..

Mrs. EMILY STrLEs.-This estimable lady died
at the residence OF her son-in-aw, Mr.. NJ. J.
Smith, in Fall River, Wis. May 26th, at the age
of seventy-seven years. The deceased was the
widow of the late Danforth W. Stiles, formerly of
Middlesex, Vt, and daughter Of Daniel Hough-
ton, Esq. Mrs. Stiles went to Wisconsin with
her husband and children during the early pioneer
days, and she has permanently resided there
since, She has witnessed the growth and pros
perity OF the state from its birth to the present
time. Her husband was one Of the heroes of the
war OF 1872, and died of cholera in 1849 thus
leaving the partner of his early days alone with
her children to battle the surging pillows of lies
tempestuous sea. Triumphantly did she stern
the tide, faithfully did she perform her work, and
peacefully did she resign the cross for the crown.
Early in September last she was confined to her
bed by an acute rheumatic disease, and never
again left it without assistance Yet during all
the long hours Of painful suffering she was mar
vel of patience Not once did she murmur at the
will of an inscrutable Providence but cheerfully
put her trust in him who doeth all things well.
She received visits fiom her friends and ever
seemed glad to meet them. An attack of inter-
mittent fever untimey sundered the mysterious
chord that binds the mortal with the immortal,
and about six o'clock In the evening she calmly
breathed her last. Silently the spirit winged its
flight to the bosom Of its giver The loving voice
of the mother stiled forever and the casket OF
clay awaited Its repose in the tomb. Her many
excellencies of character were acknowledged by
all who knew her A devoted Christian an ex.
emplary mother, an estimable woman, has gone
from our midst to a life beyond. She leaves four
children to mourn her loss-Harret wife OF j. A.
Smith Of Fall River; Mary R., wife of II. r. Han
cock of Columbus; Belinda A., unmarried; and
Frederick W., formerly Of this vicinity, but now
| Of West Salem, Wis Also one sister, wife Of
Ephraim Baker Of Bristol, consort Of Amos L.
| Rice, formerly OF Vermont.

Letter from John M. Stearns.

Messrs. Editors I'm passing through Buring-
ton on the day Of the annual commencement OF
the University Of Vermont, stopped off between
trains and proceeded to the Opera House, where
a crowd packed the building, listening to the
speeches OF the graduates. To my surprise /
found on the programme the name of Miss Lille
Helen Cram as member Of the class Well, |
thought the world does move after all, when this
old aristocratic, conservative college admits a
woman as one Of her graduates when the monk
ish owls that have hitherto lorded 1t over the
heritage OF learning come to see a new and other
occupation for young ladies than to lirt with the
students, and mend their stockings and cook their
board. The wonder is not that the lady in ques-
ton has graduated with college honors, for every
teacher in our public schools, for the last fifty
years. knows that the most forward and apt
scholars in those schools are found among the
girls attending them, and II there were any
dullords they were among the boys. But the
matter OF surprise is that prejudice that has be-
come fossil in the minds Of the controllers OF our
higher schools Of learning, THAT woman lacks
capacity to distinguish herself in the higher de-
partments of science" should give way to the
progress OF civilization But, the case being con-
sdered, the old prejudice fingered in excusing the
young lady from making speech or reading an
essay at the commencement / venture to say
there were few listeners on that occasion who
would not rather have forgiven her natural diff
fidence, and perhaps defects in her composition,
than have been deprived Of the satisfaction Of
hearing from her. Charitably speaking. perhaps
the faculty thought the performances OF the young
gentlemen would appear at a disadvantage in
comparison, and so advised her to be excused"
Your report says the lady was admitted to the
degree Of Bachelor OF Arts" II SO think the
diploma should be corrected by inserting in the
place OF Bachelor" some choice Latin words
signifying Maid Of the Arts, so that in her sub
sequent degree she may become Mistress of the
Arts" and not be held up to the world as affect
ing masculine disposition and ambition

MoRRIsvILLE.-The Fourth" passed off here
in about the usual way. The day was heralded
in with cannonading, commencing at midnight.
Through the day the juveniles celebrated with
fire crackers and other light fireworks. In the
evening the Grand Army Of the Republic boys, in
their new costumes, paraded the streets with
torchlights. Afterwards they had a lively Skin
mish on the meadow below the depot, which was
witnessed by three or four hundred people,
coming In from all points. In the meantime the
cannons were fired and fireworks were set off by
committee appointed for that purpose -. Pull.

ANOTHER MYSTERIOUS MURDER-The police
OF New York and the public generally are greatly
exercised over another mysterious murder, which
occurred In that city on Thursday night OF last
week. This tragedy has that element Of mystery
connected with it which usually excites general
attention Mr.. John F. Seymour, a cousin and
brother-in-law Of Bishop Seymour, was found
murdered ON the grounds Of the theological SEM
mary where he resided. 1t seems that on the
evening before the Fourth Of July he had gone
out, as was his custom, to clear the grounds from
tramps which infested It, Not returning season.
ably he was sought for, and found dead with a
pistol ball through his body. No trace of the
murderer has yet been found and it is doubtful II
there ever is. There are three theories in regard
to the case: The first is, that In endeavoring to
eject some tramps, they fired upon and killed
him; the second, that stray ball from the pistol
Of some hoodlum may have done the business
and the third, which is strenuously insisted upon
by the police, Is that he committed suicide
Bishop Seymour, when interviewed at the col.
lege, said he was sure the theory Of sef-destruc-
ton was without foundation. His brother, he
said was never known to carry any kind OF a
weapon, and no trace Of his having purchased a
pistol OF any kind could be discovered The
bishop believed he had been shot by some tramp
found on the grounds, or by some man in com
pany with a woman.

In old times when scholars were taught self-rei-

would not throw away the present system but
combine with the old. Encourage children to
work themselves and not let them rely on the

have the pulpit, press and philanthropy urge upon
parents the necessity OF educating their children

upon to attend industrial or public schools they
should be compelled by law. He highly COM
