AN APPEAL TO VERMONT SoLDIERs.-
The Vermont soldiers who were so MANY
times during the war fed and refreshed at
the Cooper refreshment saloon, Philadel-
phla, will regret to learn that William NJ.
Cooper. the founder of the saloon, has re-
Gently died in Philadelphia, leaving a
widow, widowed daughter and two chill
dren in most stratened circumstances as
The result of his disinterested beneyolencn
to the soldiers during the war. All of Mr..
Cooper's property was swallowed up in
his patriotic care of the soldier, and the
house that shelters his family is soon to be
sold by the sheriff, unless some measure
shall be adopted to preserve it to them. A
very moderate sum from each of the sol.
diers of New England who have partaken
OF Mr.. Cooper's bounty would raise fund
that would secure his family from want
and redeem the "Old Cooper Shop" The
Record of Philadelphia has started a

soldiers desiring to contribute to this fund
should send 10 the Record office.

Paris Letter.
PARIs. France. March l, 1880.

PARIS, France, March /, 1880.
1t is now known that the preparations
for the attempt on tho winter palace date
| from the time of the cars last residence
in Livadia. The fire which broke out at
the moment of the explosion was in the
Bolschaia Sadowaja street. One private
dwelling and three buildings occupied by
the police were reduced TO ashes. Terror
prevails at St Petersburgh, numberless
patrols scour the roads. and people sneak
along the streets rs if they themselves
were the criminals. All places of public
entertainment are deserted, and rs soon as
n group forms the police run up and it
disperses. All conversation is at an end,
and no one dares to allude to the terrible
events that are passing daily, for fear OF
being arrested. Anarchy and disorgani-
cation reign supreme in every branch of
the administration. On the day after the
exposisn no less than 1850 suspected
persons were taken into custody, and these
included GO officers and 115 court officials.
The arrests continue, nevertheless, and
have now attained almost incredible pro-
portions. There seems to be general
opinion abroad that something even worse
must follow ere long.
1t is now said that the ear will not
abdicate, but will prefer to remain at the
post of honor, and perish if need be. lie

more than half convinced that sooner or

Edward TatrO, Murderer,
THE CRIME FOR WHICH He WILL DE HUNG
NEXT MONTH,

Three Vermont murderers suffered the
extreme penalty OF the law, last year, and
there are in the state prison at Windsor
two more under sentence of death-Hay-
den, the brutal wife murderer, whose
doom is postponed until next year, and
Edward Tatro, who is to be hung on Fri
day, April I'd. The following brief ac.
count of the crime for which he is to suffer
| (taken from the Windsor JeuTnaD may be
of interest to our readers at this time.
Edward Tatro had worked on farm for
Mr.. Charles w. Butler of Highgate, and
had lived in his family for three years
previous to the murder, and was consider
ed as a quiet and inofensive young man.
On the night of tho murder, Friday, June
Cd. 1876. Butler, who was going to the
Centre Village, about two miles distant
asked Tatro to accompany him, but he did
not wish to go, when Mrs. Butler said she
would 90, but her husband thought she
had better not. Tatro had been drinking
hard for several days previous, and said
he felt SICK and would stay with Alice
Mrs. Butler. Butler started for the village
about O'Clock and returned home about
o'clock, went to the barn and put up his
horse, went into the house. and finding all
dark, started for match and tumbled
over something on the floor which he sup
posed was the hired man, Tatro, asleep
there; but his horror can be better i'm
agined than described. when, upon lighting
a lamp. he discovered the mangled and
bleeding remains of his wife. in pool of
blood, her head beaten to almost pomace
and her brains oozing out. There stood
the AK, covered with blood several bloody
sticks of wood and II br ken char with his
gun on the floor. Mr. Butler Immediately
started for assistance. but was soon met by
Tatro and some of the neighbors whom
Tatro had aroused, after committing the
terrible deed, telling them tramp WIS ut
Mr.. Buffers and killing Alice. He claim
ed to Mr.. Butler that as he was going up
stairs TO bed and had got undressed, Mrs.
Butler came running up, and IA man after
her; that the man turned upon him and
Knocked him down stairs, and then he ran
for help, he talking all the time in the
most rambling manner. Tatro had on
nothing but shirt, which was torn and
bloody. and his hands and legs were al
covered with blood An inquest was held
over the body, and the evidence was 50

The MISSING MURRAY,-For the past
four or five months there has been consid-
cradle speculation rs to the whereabouts
of Rev. w. II. H. Murray, 1t was gener-
ally supposed that he was somewhere in
the west and he is known to have been in
California some time during last fall A
shart time ago, says the San, Mr.. Murray
su l'lenly appeared in the east, and just rs
suddenly disappeared again. 1t is now
known that he sailed for Europe. The
only reason why so many people are anx
ious to find out Mr.. Murray's whereabouts
is the fact that he takes great pains to
conceal himself. Mr.. Murray passed the
winter months, not in the west. but among
his old haunts in the Adrondacks, and he
has been at work there on some literary
production which he will before long offer
to the public. 1t was Mr.. Murray's wish
to keep in retirement, because he believes
that he is threatened with some mental
affection, and that absolute secusion from
his friends and acquaintance is the best
thing for him.

The Brazilian emperor, during carnival
lays, rides in his carriage among the peo-
pie and throws water lemons at them, to
which they respond by making him a
target for squirt-guns. The car of all the
Russians is cautious about riding among
his people; and when he does he is liable
to b. made target for more dangerous
weapons than squirt-guns. That is the
difference between the two cmperors.
One is popular; the other is not Popular

Some time since the Canadian govern
nent complained tina. the United States
were sending into Canada cattle diseased
with pleuro-pneumonia, and they were
spreading the infection among Canadian
herds. They sought to remedy the alleged
evil by prohibiting the admission of cattle
from the United States. The United
States treasury department thereupon
promptly issued retalatory order, pro-
hibting the admission of Canadian cattle
into the United States. This order had the
desired effect. The obnoxious order was
rcscinded by the Canadian government.
In IL recent letter Of the treasury depart
ment on the subject of pleuro- pneumonia,
the Cana ian cattle were declared free
from the dreaded disease and western
cattle raisers were advised that they could
safely send their cattle through Canada to
Boston and Portland, for expectation,
without fear of infection.

FOUND DEAD.-R. Sumner Willis, a
young man of South Weymouth, Mass,
was found dead about o'clock Monday
morning, on the road leading to South
Braintree. So far as the circumstances
can be ascertained, it seems that this
young man, in company with an intimate
friend, S. Prescott Derby, went to Hing
ham Sunday evening to pay their usual
Sunday evening visit to some young lady
friends. After spending the evening they
started for home, but concluded to 90 to
Quincy first, where they visited the Rob
ertson House, drank freely and again
started homeward. Beyond this the young
man who survived can give no particulars.
He himself reached home with his fathers
team between and 2 o'clock, in an insen-
sible state, The medical examined who
viewed the body of the victim came to the
conclusion that the unfortunate young
man fell out Of the carriage and was
caught by his clothing in such a manner
that he was dragged for long distance.
On many parts of the body the flesh was
entirely worn off, so that the bones and
even the internal organs were exposed.
The deceased was about 20 years old and
was very respectfully connected.
