RUTLAND.-Since Deacon Haven opened
the Bates House as temperance hotel, it
has had large patronage, probably because
it is well kept rather than because it is kept
as temperance house. Soon after this
house was bought by Deacon Haven, the
Supreme Court met at Rutland, and he in
vited the judges to stop with him to give
their countenance to his plan, but they went
where they had been accustomed to 60
While there they were invied to spend an
evening to tea at Judge Prout's, and as they
were riding to the judges in the hotel hack,
they were much surprised at being taken far
out of the direct course into a cemetery and
there peremptorily ordered by the driver to
get out" They got out and walked back
to their hosts. The opinion they formed of
the driver Of hotel that was not kept on
strictly temperance principles has not been
made public. -Rutland Letter.
