FRANK LEsLIE's SUNDAY MAGAZINE
For SEPTEMBER Contains, as usual, a
rich treat of choice literature for home
reading. There are some highly inter-
esting and instructive articles excellent
serial and short stories, sketches and
essays, and poems of rare merit; and
the number abounds with embcllish-
mcnts. Among the prominent articles
are "Life and Love in Bavaria" "Paul
Rubens," "Thc Bishop and Cathedral
of Truro" etc. etc. The capital story
"Be-Be" is concluded, and new serial
ofpowcrful interest commenced, entitl-
cd chester Morgan's Husband" There
are short stories and sketches by popu-
lar writers, admirably written essays,
ETC., etc. The editor caters very accep-
tably for youthful readers; the story OF
"Maid Marjory, ""The Monkeys and the
Baby etc. will afford them pleasant
reading. Among the noteworthy poems
are the "Church Month";" by Frances
Ridley Iiavergal; "rhe Maseue of the
Vacant Chair" by Augusta Brown Gar.
rett, etc. The present number is alike
remarkable for the abundance, vast
variety and excellence of the contents,
literary and artistic, and it may well
cause surprise that it can be afforded al
the low price of 20 cents a copy, or s.
per annum, post free. There are in
each number l29 quart pages, and there
is certainly in this one over 100 cngray.

Horse SHoEING.-Diseases are some.
times produced in the feet from which
horse is never again free during his
life. 1t is therefore important that 0
valuable horse should not be put in the
hands of every blockhead who pleases
to call himself horseshoer, but en-
trusted only to persons of known skill
Horseshoeing is what every worker OF
iron, who has acquired the name of a
blacksmith, pretends to be skilled in
but there are few indeed in possession
of sufficient knowledge on that subject
to make it safe to place under their
care horse of value for the purpose OF
being shod. To perform this operation
correctly and without present or future
injury requires not only good skill and
Judgment, but thorough acquaintance
with the anatomy of horses foot,
which is knowledge but few of our
blacksmiths' are in possession Of, and
is the cause of so many horses being
rendered useless. Almost all the di.
seases in the feet, are, more or less, the
result of bad shooting.

EDITOR REGISTER:
Dear Sir:-I read with much pleas
ure in your issue of last week your
kindly notice of Mr.. w. w. Ashley,
formerly OF your place, whose recent
arrest in this city is regarded by his
friends here-among whom are some OF
our best cilizeDs-as simply an outrage.
/ am personally well acquainted with
Mr.. Ashley, and deem it but an act OF
Justice to him and his friends in Mid
dlebury and elsewhere, to say thus pub
licly that have had abundant opportu-
nifty of becoming fully conversant with
all the details of the matter that has
been used as a pretex for this unjust
persecution, aud find there is absolute.
ly nothing that would in any way CON-
promise his personal integrity or hon.
csty of purpose. believe him to be
in the fullest sense of the word gen.
tleman, and in every way worthy the
high esteem in which he is held by
those who know him best. This affair
will cast no shadow on his reputation
here, aud his return here will be hailed
with many cordial greetings.
Respectfully yours,
GEO. w. SNYDER.

correspondent Of that llthy sheet, and
in that capacity he showed himself a
talsiiicr of no small power, insomuch
that on one accession he suddenly "lit
out' of Vergennes TO avoid damaging

come Justly incensed at his slandcrous
correspondence" from that place.
Even Love became disguised with his
incapacity.
This Democrat, this brother cores

he keeps his promise. Having plenty
of leisure time upon bis hands he, with
or without help, concoctcd the dispatch
which fooled the New York Times,
and which set the country all agog for
few days. Ii was brilliant proof OF
journalistic abilities, il inscriptions

was written in pencil upon white pa

With it was a private note for the cdi.

rectness, and referred to States Attor.
ney Sladc, Sheriff Dupshec and Others
for proof, and for his own reliability
This note was signed "James l.
Scott" All this, including the sigma
ture, was so much additional lying.
The whole performance was con
temptible one, such as no decent maj
would have engaged in. We do no
believe there is Republican in Yer
mont so debased as TO be capable of
similar act. 1t emanated from Demo
cratic sources, and while il would b.
unfair to hold the Democratic party re
sponsible for the acts of person 81
utterly irresponsible, we trust III
more Democratic homolies will b.
founded upon comparison of this dis
reputable hoax with verified reports o
Democratic outrages at the South.
Some of our readers may think W
ought to give the proofs of the author
ship above asserted. We would there
fore say that we withhold the proof
for the present, merely for the pleasur
of firstseeing few "indignant dcni
ais" We are satisfied that onr informs
ton is correct. n

A Foolish Bourbon.

Vermont is not state in which the
democratic party tlourishcs and the few
voters there who train in its ranks are
naturally among the worst specimens OF
fossil Bourbons to be found in the whole
country. AS they stand out against al |
the light in political matters with which
that model commonwealth is flooded.
and against the pressure of an unusual
ly strong and intelligent political opin-
ion, this fact is not one TO furnish cause
for wonder. Nor is it therefore sur
prising that they have placed at the
head of their state ticket silurian OF
the first order. lie has not even adj
vanced as far as the Declaration of In
dependence, and seems to have no con-
ccption of the fact that a citizen of this
country is entitled to enjoy the rights
of a citizen in every part of its wide do
main. lie complacently congratulatcs
his fellow partisans that they ''bclons
to party that is not afraid to show its
head in every state ofthc Union" This
is probably supposed 10 mean that the
democratic party is so virtuous and
patriotic that it flourishes everywhere,
and its opponents are so unpatriolic and
destructive that they are not tolerated
in large section of the Union. AS the
character of each party is directly the
reverse of this it was very foolish to cal
attention 10 the fact.
The people of Vermont are as rigid
and uncompromising in their political
opinions as any other people in thC
country. The election returns show
this fact year by year, and there is nc
Southern state where the Republicans
| form so small percentage of the volcri
as the Democrats do in Vermont. Yet
in the Green Mountain state there il
just as much freedom of expression &C.
corded TO the minority as the majority
claims for itself. 1t is as good a speci
men as the world can furnish of per,
fectly free, liberal, enlightened and wei
| governed commonwealth, and we
ton of those states where free discus
sion and free ballot are unknown. j
party may be judged by its fruits, VIC
are willing to have Vermont taken as {
standard by which the temper and char
acter OF the Republican party are to be
measured. With an overwhelming ma
iority of Republicans there is no AFRO
gance nor repression nor intolerance
and it furnishes a marked contrast Il
the states where the Democratic party
bears equally unlimited sway. Mr.
Phelps, the Democratic nominee for gov
ernor, has borne unconscious but mos
important and unimpeachable testimon,
to the superiority of Republican princi
pies in securing and maintaining all tina
is desirable in popular government, an,
furnished the strongest of all possibl,
reasons why the party which he repre-
sents should not be entrusted with pow

That Ku.Klux Affair in East Mlddlebury
The Author of the Hoax.


Every since the the publication of the
false story of Democratic outrage in
East Middlebury, there have been many
conjectures as to its authorship, TO-
gether with little quiet investigation
by some parties. 1t was noticeable
that the Democratic papers made free
use OF the story to demonstrate the like
falsity of the stories of the Southern
outrages. 1t was asserted at The time
by many that this was the sole purpose
tor which the dispatch was concocted,
and that it was gotten up by Demo-
Gratis, probably OIL Middlebury, as the
story showed an intimate acquaintance
with East Middlebury. Some Demo-
Gratis OH the other hand claimed that
that Republicans were at the bottom OF
it. with the fell and atrocious intent to
create popular prejudice against the
Democratic party, as if the true record
of the party were not all that is needed
to effect that result. Among others, we
are pleased to see that "Old Time
Rocks" the fascinating Rutland cor
respondent of the Montpelier Argus,
says that rumor ascribes its authorship
to no less Republican than Lucius
Bigelow, the editor of the Rutland
Herald. This same correspondent pro-
misses that "this thing will be sifted and
all who had hand in it will be shown
up in their true light" We trust that
sold Times Rocks" will keep his
promise.
The person who penned the dispatch
to the New York Times is Middlebury
youth, Democrat of the species that
claims everything two years before the
votes are cast, with heavyweight effu-
siyeness of assertion and a lightweight
show of reason that reminds one of an
excited English sparrow. After his
graduation from college few years
since, he announced with inpresiveness
that he was going to walk in the high
or fields of journalism, and intended

locals how to publish paper. Self
conceit being the only basis he had to
build upon, it is not surprising that
his journalistic abilities are at present
employed only in lying correspondence
to the Montpelier Argus over the sig-
nature 80. o. o." and in supplying
our neighbors Of the Journal with its
dull editorials, which can be easily dis
tinguished from the genuine but seldom
seen productions of the ostensible edi-
tor thereof by the fact that they show
some attention to grammatical sense.
Grammar Ia his strong point, and it
may be remembered that the Journal
once groaned over the grammatical
and dictionary ignorance Of the Regis

acquainted with the canons of fomal
logic. When the defunct Burlington
