Not an ElOpement.

The following rather spicy letter cx-
plains itself. The item referred TO was
based upon apparently sufficient inior-
nation. We deeply regret any injus-
tice which il did Miss Kingsland, who
we arc assured is by no means the kind
of young lady which our item would
seem TO imply:
BRaDroRT, VT. April 20, 1880.
EDITOR OF REGIsTER:-The report in
your paper concerning the clopemcnt
of Erford, alias Erwin Huestis with
Julia Kingsland, is a myth. Am very
sorry indeed TO spoil the pretty SEN
sation which the report has produced
but as have returned i'll bodily shape,
and have neither seen nor heard from
ErfOrd Hucstis since my departure from
BridpOrt, Feb. IS, you, as well as
others must conclude there is a great
mistake somewhere. Perhaps Mr..
Daniel Huestis and family heve taken
an overdose of runaway; ifso just drop
my name and proceed. Perhaps the
people of Bridport and vicinity are not
aware have friends elsewhere, but al
lowing me TO be the judge, l think il
very strange | cannot visit friends with
whom ! have resided for years without
such a SANDER attaching to my name.

nent features of the number. In the

story, "Not Guilty" is continued, and
there are some excellent short stories

etc., etc. There are several sketches
descriptive of adventures, persons and
places, admirably written and of ex-
ceeding interest. There are poems of
unusual merit, many of them beauti-

I'M IL the United States Military
Academy at West Point is 30 utterly in-
fected with the internal Southern preju-
dice against the negro, that a colored
cadet who is made the victim of an out
rage must be al once charged, entirely
against reason and without all atom of
proof, both by his fellow cadets and the
officers of the school with having done
the act himself, it &c about time the in-
stitution were wiped out as a blot upon
the face of the earth. The first natural
presumption in Wki.taker's case was
that some young ruffians among the ca
diets might have INDUCED in a little hru-
tai amusement at his expense, bu- ill.,
stead of such an idea being acted unon
the whole institution combined against
the defenceless and injured colored boy.
There was nothing whatever to show
that he mutilated and bound himself.
There was no suflcien. reason for him
to do SO; there were suspicious circum-
| stances duplicating some Of his fellow
cadets; yet he was compelled to look
outside of the institution TO find either
sympathy or justice. 1t is a fine train
ing which the future officers of Our ar.
my arc getting ct West Point, which
converts them into brutal and indis'
eliminating negro hatcrs. A colored
youth has as much legal and mora
| right at West Point as one with a white
skin, and the %disgraceful snobbery
which deprivcs him of social recogni.
ton there ought to be put down by
some power that will be eifectual.

~ We are pleased to see from the
principles and BELIEF which orr
neighbor of the Journal "reannounoesv
as TO "the proper way of conducting a
newspaper" that "pandering to an an
petite for sensational literature should
not be fostered," and that ait should be
the aim of the editor to ennoble the
sentiments of its readers" These are
merely specimen bricks out of several
choice 'principles and BELIEF cream
~nounced," and from them il will be
seer that the editor who SO heroically re-
fuses to foster "%pandering to an appe-
.tite for sensational literature" is inst
the man to "ennoble the sentiments of
Its readers" whether they want
their sentiments "ennobled" or not. AS
an ''ennobler of sentiments" the
Journal youth is a brilliant success, or
something of that sort, and though he
has overlooked the propriety of trying
the process upon himself, we look to see
the sentiments of the rest of the county
considerably "ennobled" ere long as O
result of his efforts.

Blackwood's Magazine for April.
1880, has been republished by the
Leonard Scott Publishing CO., al Bar
clay st. The following are the con-
tents:
Brummagen Morality, Reata.-Part

V; The Afghan War: Passages from
the Notebook of a Staff Oficer.-Part
H.; Eleanour: A Tale of Non Perform

The reader having greeted his old
old friends "Reata," John West. and
the "Staf Officer" and devoted a few
minutes to the contemplation of the
lovely "Eleanour," cannot fail to be
struck with the political tendency of
the other articles. One is devoted 10
an examination of the standard of NOR
atty set up by the radicals. Another
discusses the dissolution of Parliament.
the issues at stake, and the spirit i'm
which they are contested. A third
describes the positions of the nations of
Europe at the present time and the i'm
portance and influence of England.
Even the reviewer ofthe last volume of
the "Lifc of the Prince Copsort" gives
his views on the politics of Europe and
the relations of England with the con-
tinental powers, though there are some
pictures of home life given also; and
the present proprietary system of Nor
way is statistically and uninvitingly de-
scribed as a warning toJ England
against reformcrs who would subdi-
vide her land.

The May number of "The Popular
Science Monthly" is uncommonly
strong, and its contents are unusually
varied. The first article, by Professor
j. M. Duchun, Is an interesting study
of ~ethnology under the title of "Climate
and Complexion" Under the title of
'Tbe Carbon Button" Mr.. T.. A. Eng
Ter, a talented young physicist, gives
an elaborate aud instructive account OF
the growth of the telephone, so far as
the interesting properties of carbon In
relation to sound are involved. Those
concerned in The question of religion
aud science will read wi h profit the
essay OF the Lord Bishop of Carlisle,
entitled "God and Nature" in which
the study of physical science is skillful-
ly defended against the charge of athe-
istic tendencies. Ernest Ingersoll dis
cusses "Thc Buffalo and his Fate" in
al extremely interesting chapter on the
natural history of this quadrupcd.
"Sham Admiration in Literature" is a
pungent expose of the emptiness of
much of Dur literary talk CONGO ming
authors and books, by James Payn. A
striking article, entitled "The Impedi-
! ment of Adipose-a Celebrated Case"
by Il. Vale Blake, treats of the physio-
logy of fat and the influence of obesity
upon character. The conclusions are
applied to S~hakespeare's Hamlet, end
the key off's irresolution is found in
the poets statement:
"le's fat and scant OF BREATH"
"The Martyrdom of Science" a we'll
worn topic, is freshly illustrated and
brought out with more modern eXem-
%plification by Mr.. j. w. Slater. James
Sully concludes his aesthetic analysis OF
"The Pleasure of Visual Form" But
the most weighty and suggestive article
of the number is by Charles Richet, ell.
titled ''Hysteria and Demonism: A
Study in Morbid Psychology" This
pregnant and original discussion will
be continued in succeeding numbers OF
the "Monthly." Professor K. Ra,
Lancaster considers Bacteria as Do.

paper OH "Some Facts and Fictions o

by Geo. M. Willmarth. The state OF
Mr.. IL. c. Johnson's health renders
necessary his retirement from the edito-

service on the paper during Mr.. John

him to the ranks of the fraternity.
