ONE CAUSE OF Colo IN HORSES
Collie in horses is often brought on by
feeding hay passed through the corn
stalk cutter, mixed with meal, mid
dlings or bran, and then wet up. The
horse eats his food, thus prepared, so
rapidly that it is not properly masti-
Gated, and consequently becomes SO
clied in the stomach as to cause indl-
gestion followed by collie more es-
pecially if directly after eating he is
allowed to drink heartily of water &;
and the colder this is, SO much the
more liable to bring on collie. The
best way, when a horse is brought in
to the stable, is to let him stand a
short time, particularly if sweating,
then give him three or four quarts of
water not over cold ; then some uncut
hay; after this Il feed of grain or
meal; and half an hour or so after
that is eaten, all the water he pleases
to drink. Some horses will eat cut
hay with impunity, others cannot. or
at least not till after they have first
eaten some uncut -LiVe Stock Journ-

Captain Z. A. Woodbury. is spoken
of for Mayor of the Queen City. We
are glad to see our Lamoille County
boys appreciated. The Captain is al
present chairman of the Board of AL
derman of the city of Burlington, andin
addition to his connection with official
matters his business relations to the
city are quite important. Under his
ownership and management the Van
Ness House has been re-modelled and
enlarged, the electric light put in, and
we understand purposes, the coming
spring, to still further improve the
Van Ness by putting in an elevator.
The Captain is the Burlington man

of J. r. Booth, who is said to be the
largest owner of Canadian timber rights
now living. They do an extensive
door, sash and blind business at Bur-
lington, in addition to their lumber
trade. AS alderman, landlord, lum-
herman and manufacturer, we think
the Captain ear give full scope to his
untiring energy and large business
qualifications.

of your schools, churches, meetings,

One of the brightest of Vermont's
sons, who has won for himself a ma
tional reputation, is William +. Villas,
son of Levi B. Villas, well known to
the older citizens OF our county. Near
the foot of sold White Face" in the
town that is not, but was, Sterling
where winters storms are more severe
tits said, than almost anywhere else in
the county, and where the soil is prin-
cipally composed of the rocks that
have for ages past rolled down from
the sides of ''Old Sterling" is the spot
where old Squire Villas, the grand
father of William f., started in life.
Here were born Samuel F., Levi B.,
Freeman and Ransom Villas, men who
have in different fields achieved marked
distinction. Ransom was a large and
prosperous farmer in Chittenden Co. (:
Samuel f. is at present said TO be the
largest land owner in the State of New
York, and probably BY far the wealth.
lest man in the northern part of the
Empire State /; Freeman, who died at
the age of &c, was 8 merchant in Bur
lington, and left $40, earned with
his own hands; Levi B., who by
the way married a sister of Henry
Smile, Esq, of Cam5ridge-and
daughtero of Nathan Smilie-who will be
remembered by our older citizens as
the candidate for governor when ''bank
reform" was the issue-chose the pro-
fession of the law, and nan years
ago cast his fortunes with the young
and growing State OF Wisconsin, where
he has since been honored with the
Democratic nomination for governor.
His son, William F., the subject of
this article, is one of the leading law
yers of Wisconsin, and was the Dem
ocratic nominee for United States SEN
ator a few years since. True to the State
of his nativity and deeming himself
honored because OF his birth in the
Green Mountain State, is it any won
der that at the last annual banquet of
the Sons of Vermont at Chicago, he
sent by telegraph the following senti-
ment:
"To the Green Mountain Crafts on
the Sucker State tree AS in nature,
the richest fruits of the tree are on
these branches, for they hold the flavor
of their native CLINE, though flourish
best on another soil"
We have not the correct data at
hand to verify our statement, but are
under the impression hat MI. Villas
was the Democratic candidate for u.
S. Senator against Hon. Philetus Saw
yer, who is also one of Vermont's sons,
and who succeeded the late Hon. Matt.
II. Carpenter, another son of Yer
mont. Verify what would our sister
States in the great west do for her

raised on the rocky hill-sides of the

RARSToW AND DILLINGHAM;.

1t is quite early TO write the Elogra'
ply of the next Governor and Lieuten.
anti Governor of Vermont but the en-
tire unanimity of expression, on the
part of the press and public, seems tc
leave but little doubt that the ticket
will read as above written. Both gen.
tlemen are representative Vermonters
both thoroughly identified with Yer
mont interests; both unexceptionable
in character, and of unquestioned
ability and fitness for the respective
positions, and, all in all, we believe a
better ticket cannot be named.
Gen. Barstow has had a splendid
experience to fit him to perform the
duties of Chief Executive. Returning
from an honorable service in the war
of the rebellion, he was soon honored
by successive elections as representa-
tive from his native town. Soon after
he was elected to the State Senate,
representing Chittenden Co. in that
honorable body in 1866 and 1867.
Closely following his service as Sena-
tor, came his appointment a. Pension
Agent, an office which he filled to the
entire satisfaction of the Government
and people for several years. In 1880
he was nominated by the Republican
State Convention, without a dissenting
voice, as their candidate for Lieut.
Governor, and as a matter of course,
was elected. His genial, modest, yet
digniied and urbane manners made
him an exceedingly popular President
of the Senate, and the early sugges-
ton of his name for Governor was en-
tirely natural, and struck the popular
chord with general favor.
Perhaps we ought not to omit the
fact that Gen. Barstow is q farmer.
William P. Dillingham;, a native and
resident of Waterbury, and son of Ex-
Gov. Dillingham;, is a lawyer by pro-
fession, and one of the most popular
young men of Vermont. He has many
of the qualities of the senior Dilling-
ham, who it will be remembered was
Member of Congress from Vt. from
1913 to 1847, Lieut.-Gov. from 1862 to
1865, and Governor from 1865 to 1867.
Although comparatively a young man,
William P, as he is Familiarity known,
has had a large experience in official
matters, having been Secretary of Civil
and Military Affairs in 1866, 1867 and
1874; States Attorney in 1%876-77;
Representative from Waterbury in
1876-77; and State Senator in 1880.
1t is possible that our sketch of 'the
next Governor and Lieut. Governor"
may be needed for an obituary notice
of their political demise (; but if the
sentiment in other sections of Vermont
is as unanimous as tina. in Lamoille,
SO far as we hear, the hotels will have
to get up n side-show at the next
State convention, or there won't be
enough excitement to draw a respect

AS DIRTY AS A PIG.-This common
phrase is a SANDER on one of our most
important farm animals. Pigs are
naturally clearly more 81 than any
other domestic animal. They are the
only ones that make their beds or
draw any distinction between aparlor
and n privy, and about the only ones
that wash themselves. Give the pig

keep himself clean, sweet and pre-
sentable at all times. He is often
dirty and filthy, but that is the fault

Cuiteau GUILTY.

Before this issue reaches our read
ers most of them will have heard and
rejoiced that the great national trial
so to speak, of Garfeld's assassin,
has resulted in his conviction. The
jury which had sat patiently for ten
weeks to hearthe evidence arguments,
and instructions of the court, made
quick work of the matter when in their
hands. We had fully believed the re-
suit would be a verdict of equity"
from the beginning. We believe the
result is just what it ought to be, and
that its lessons will be valuable to the
people of the entire world. The plea
of insanity will lose much of its force,
and men in public places will feel
greater safety against the vio-
lence of ''cranks," changers on" and
"chronic Office seekers" There is NJ
doubt, Guiteau will suffer the penalty
ofthe law, hanging though his counsel
will make every attempt to secure an
other trial. The main point upon
which they rely to secure another trial
is improper conduct on the part of the
jury, in that they had before them at
one time a paper printed in Washing
ton called the Critic, which contained
some statements or articles relative to
the trial, and Guiteau's insanity. 1t
is claimed the paper has oeen found,
and that the names of four or five of
the jurymen appear on the margin
written in their own hands. The
paper has been produced and their
signatures do appear, but each jury
man denies that he ever saw the pa
per or ever wrote his nam upon it as
claimed. 1t is believed the whole is
a piece of forgery. We predict that
Guiteau's counsel will fail to secure a
new trial and that final sentence will
be passed. Guiteau is said to be full
Of hope, but he is hoping against fate
and must hang and that he may is the
prayer of every loyal citizen.
