Old and New Egypt.

The lecture by Principal Fuller at
the Academy hall Friday evening was
both interesting and instructive. His
subject was Old and New Egypt, and
in little more than an hours time,
with help of numerous illustrations
thrown upon a screen by a strong light,
he was enabled to give his audience
quite a full description of this old coun-
Try with its inhabitants, strange habits
and customs. Of especial interest was
his illustrations and talk of the mosques
of Cairo and Alexandria, the pyramids
and the sphinx. He exhibited a sec
tional view of the great pyramid, show
ing the inner passage, which he fully
explored. A map Of Egypt, with the
river Nile from its source to its mouths,
and an explanation of it's periodical
overflow, with it's effects upon the soil,
and the calamity attending an excess
i've rise as well as the failure of the
crops when the river failed to rise to a
certain hight, were among the many
things of interest. The lecture was in
the folm of familiar talk, but none
the less interesting or valuable for that
In such ways as these does Mr.. Fuller
bring back from his stay abroad valua-
BILE instruction to the school under his
charge. Besides the students of the
academy, there was good audience of
townspeople to hear this first lecture.

A Marrow Escape for the Canadians.

a Narrow Escape Tor the Canadians.
A little episode occurred on the Fair
Grounds the last day of the fair which
was not ventilated in the police court
with the other liquor cases. Between
the afternoon races, some one reported
to the police that there was a man up
by the horse barns who was selling liq-
uor. The police went at once to the
place designated, where they found a
little knot of men one of whom had q
bottle of liquor in his hands. The po-
liceman told him that he should put
him under arrest. The man thought
he was joking, but on finding the officer
meant business, he began to swear quite
roundly, telling the officer that he was
H. c. Baxter of Derby Line, and that
he brought trotting horse here to help
the fair. Capt. Foster, who was with
Baxter, and who keeps saloon at the
Line, advised Baxter to knock the Of
ficer down, but his advice was not ia
ken, fortunately for Baxter. Meantime
a big crowd had gathered, and among
them came an officer of the fair who
identified Baxter and Foster, and they
were pei mitted to go their way. They
came near, however, getting taste of
the Vermont liquor law.

THE COLORED PEOPLE FOR
SHERMAN.

The Ohio papers say that nearly all
the colored people in hal State are for
Sherman for President. We are not
surprised to hear this. John Sherman
was an open, brave advocate of the
rights and freedom of the colored
people long years before the wal
when it wal unpopular to be so even
in Ohio and the colored men who are
not friendly to Sherman are hard to
find in Ohio where he lives and is
well known. Changes that are now
being made by Democratic papers
against Sam TilAen-wip-b be branded
al Radical les when reproduced next
summer if Tilden should be nomina
ted. The Democrats are fighting
against Sherman's nomination with
the desperation of men fighting
against threatened destruction.

In 1878, an off year in politics,
Pettibone received 10000 votes and
was defeated by R. L. Taylor. Pet
tibone received 1875 more votes
than Butler did in 1870, an off year,
and Butler was elected. Pettibone
also received 1896 more votes than
Butler did in 1874, when he was de-
feated, Hayes and Wheeler received
13,459 votes in the Presidential race
of 1876, showing that 2,499 Repub-
licans in the District did not go
to the polls in 1878 and vote because
they believed Pettibone would be
elected any way. The Democracy
polled their full vote, being encour-
aged by the disaffection of a few Re
publicans, in the hope of success.
Taylor received the full Democratic
vote and about 1888 Republicans
1t is safe to assume that every Re-
publican who opposed Major Petit,
bone and felt an interest in having
HIM defeated went to tho polls and
voted, and it will be seen had Their
numbers were not so formidable as
would at first sight appear. Had the
Republicans turned out Major Pet.
tibone would have been triumphantly
elected. As it was, he received more
