We chronicle with-no little pleasure the
largest individual gift ever made to the iuhuS
of the University of Vermont. John L.
Howard, Esq, whose interest in THIS the
CITY of his birth, has been shown in so many
practical wavs, Yesterday sent to the treas
urer of the University of Vermont and
State Agricultural College his cheek ior
$50, 900. In an accompanying deed oil gll''
he directs that the money so given shall De
carefully kept as a permanent fund, the IN
come from which shall he expended, .trSf
for the endowment of Professorship to be
called .'The Howard Professorship OF Natu-
raj History" the salary attached to the same
10 be not less than $500. Second, the sum oil
$500 is to he appropriated annually for the
purchase and exhibition of specimen ap-
paratus, and implements for the proper ue-
yelopmeut and illustration of the suhJ cts oil
instruction connected with the said fro-
fessorship Third, the remainder OF the
annual income of the fund is to be expended
in increasing the College Library-the BOOKS
so purchased to be designated 1.-THE IL waru
Library"
The qualification at this noble gift VII not
be confined to our community. but will bc shar-
ed by the people of the State, and by the many
sons and friends of the University scattered
through the land. 1t is timely gift. Inc
University is out of debt but soreiy needs
funds for progressive work and enlars cement
of its facilities, Mr.. Towards dona-
ton will enable 1t to make in one or two
important directions The Howard PROBES
ship and the fund for the cabinet OF Natural
History will give added life and interest 10
the study of the Natural Sciences; and the
handsome sum which will henceforth be eX-
pended for the increase OF the Library
which is now one of the choicest OF its size
in the country in some deparimehts-will
enable the Trustees to make greatly needed
additions of modern and current Literature.
We trust that Mr. Howard will live many
years, TO see the good which will be accom-
plished by this generous gift.

The Popular Judgment.

1t has been justly remarked that the popular
Judgment, deliberately made up. ia correct and re-
liable. II stamps with lis own peculiar seal what
ever 1t approves. The reputation which survives
its searching and critical tests is established on
firm foundation. The really merltorIOus article
finds favor at first, but slowly and with many re-
Bluffs; lis inherent virtue continually asserts itself
its elasticity rebounds higher with every cheek,
until II reaches the height of favor 10 which it is
entitled.
Burnetts Cocaine for the hair AMI Buruett's
Standard Flavoring Extracts or.coOkIng purposes
are articles in point. They have been before the
public many years; one hy one they acquired
friends, then they counted their hundreds then
their thousands. Success created rivals cOmpe-
ttion assailed them lint their sterling with
stoOl all opposition, and The popular verdict was
largely rendered IN their favor.
These, together with Burnet's other Toilet Arti-
cles. are now "hOusehod words, and IN household
use throughout the states AMI in many foreign
countries.
They are of such admirable make As to combine
substance with elcgance-ihr supply OF a qsHtiHg
rdnt with appeal 10 the Imagination in the
poetry of their composition. AMI for these reasons
Burnett'5 Preparations will enjoy an ever increa5-
ing sale, and an ever Frightening reputation.

The large number of finesoprano and alto sing
ers in the chorus, with such bass as Tobey,
Fuller. Whittier and others and with Mr.. Hop

gave their attention TO entertaining the hun
bred singers from out of town. The rcputa-
ton Of MIR. Hopkins and Miss Stanley in this
rart of the State is well known. Miss {. A.

! frs, time that Mrs Gibson Of Boston ever
sang in Vermont, but judging from the re-
ccption she received here, it will not be the
last. She was greeted with perfect storm OF
applause every time she made her appearance
on the stage. Her modest, unassuming
manner and appearance, won for her the
good will OF all who had the pleasure OF hel
acquaintance She is one OF the finest sing
ers that ever visited Vermont a little Incl
