WALTHAM.-Among the peculiarities incident
to all towns Of the state, those Of the town of
Waltham, in Addison county, are novel in sew
eral respects. 1t is purely agricultural town,
having some Of the finest farming lands in the
Champlain Valley, its western boundary being
Otter Creek. The people are an intelligent class
OF successful farmers, and by necessary associa-
tions with the larger neighboring towns, have all
the advantages of church, trade and manufacture
ing privileges belonging to their neighbors. 1t
has no public buildings except good schoo-houses
no professional man, and only one mechanic (car-
penter and joiner within its limits No toirn tar
has been assessed in the last ten years except once,
and then tax of three per cent-having a fund
usually sufficient to pay running expenses. Some
fine large farm barns have recently been erected
in the town-those Of II. e. A. d. Everts and +.
ID. Barton being worthy Of mention. The latter
has been erected the present season at an esti-
mated cost Of $4,000. Mr.. Barton has a valuable
farm containing about four hundred acres. The
form of the huge barn is like the letter THE
front, used for the accommodation OF fine wooded
sheep, is ninety-six by forty feet-the other part
cattle, one hundred and eight by fifty feet, with
posts forty feet in length.

How HANCOCK WILL FEEL.-Chauncy
Depew says: 81 am afraid that when this
election is over and our gallant soldier comes
to sum up what he has got out of it; what
have been his dividends from this loan of
his sword and his uniform and his reputa-
ton to Wade Hampton to put in the Dem
ocratic hat aud pass around the country to
catch the votes Of gudgeons-he will be like
that darkey preacher who, after rousing
exhortation, passed around the hat for con-
tributions and put ten-cent piece in for
the purpos of encouraging the hearers.
When the hat came back the ten cents was
gone. [Great applause.] A darkey brother
anxious to improve the occasion said !:
'Dere is great moral zample around here
somewhere"

Laws and Lawyers.

Mr. Editor We hear 80 much OF this carping
about laws and lawyers that we are very glad to
note the remarks of Judge Poland before the
State Bar Association; and we think we should
hear less Of this wholesale SANDER upon the legal
profession il the address, uerbatim, was generally
circulated. Perhaps some are so foolish as to
think that we need no laws nor lawyers, but one
wiser than we deemed both necessary as early as
the Exodus Ne one feels safe unless he is pro-
tected in his person and property, and society af-
fords that protection by its laws. Every assoca-
ton-social, religious and political-hss Its laws,
and the more progress a nation has made in civ
ilization the more perfect is its system Of laws
the more righteous its tribunals OF justice. We,
to-day, feel the power of Magma Charta, and our
ship OF state has often realized the necessity and
suffcency OF its rudder, the constitution. The
fact is, we need laws and we need men to enforce
them. And right here lawyers necessarily play
an important part. They are the agents of our
courts, and, as such agents. they do a vast amount
OF work that the courts could not accomplish. 1t
Is through them that honest men secure their
rights and the dishonest and guilty are protected
from suffering too severea penalty. Many think
honesty is inconsistent with the legal profession.
They say lawyer always knows when he is on
the wrong side, As well say that clergymen and
doctors are false, Clergymen read the same Bible
and arrive at different conclusions and doctrines.
Doctors examine the same disease in the same
person and disagree as to the disease and its
cause And are lawyers less honest, IL, from
the same legal principles applied to the same
facts in the same case, they arrive at the oppo-
site conclusions3 Indeed, before trial, lawyers
have not the advantage OF knowing the facts in a
case, but are obliged to base their advice upon
the statements of their anxious, prejudiced and
perhaps, dishonest client. That there are disrep
utabe persons in the profession is regretted by
every real lawyer, and they are as heartily des
pissed by those within the profession as by those
outside Lawyers are, of necessity, the mos,
broadly educated of any class, for they must
meet men in all conditions Of life, and become
acquainted with all their business. No man ha
such an opportunity for influence, for he is thrown
among men. and in the glow and heat of this bat
tie for existence becomes, az it were, an Office
telling them what to do. None are more accu

Communications.
The Raid on Judge Barrett.

Mr. Editor A short editorial in the Farmer
Of this week is being used by certain opponents
Of Judge Barrett for the purpose Of creating an
impression that the people Of his county are
against him As happen to know that this is
not true, deem it my duty, as 1t Is my pleasure
to say that | think nineteen-twentleths Of the
people Of Windsor and windham counties land
for that matter might say Of the whole state)
hold him in very high estimation and would re-
gard his retirement from the bench with regret
And II he were to be retired because certain mem
bers OF the bar dislike him, some OF whom may
have been subjected to wholesome discipline by
him, the effect would be anything but good upon
the Independence Of the court and the fame Of
jurisprudence In Vermont. The article alluded
to assumes that all but two or three members Of
the bar in Windsor county are opposed to his re-
election and yet that almost every one" dares
not openly oppose him for fear they will never
win cases before him in case he is elected. This
Is a shameful imputation upon both him and
them. Several Of the most prominent lawyers Of
Windsor county express the strongest dissent
from the opposition, and most Of those who seek
to defeat him exhibit the manliness and courage
to make an open fight There is not one of them
who does not know that II he Is retained upon
the bench he will try their cases. not them, as he
ALWAYS has and as honor and his oath alike
require. And vet. I regret to believe that some
Of them are only too willing to see him injured
