That Second Hand Book.

A week or two ago bright and chatty
Young woman called at a house on Cass
avenue and endeavored to make a sale
of a book entitled Home and Mother
The lady of the house received her in
the usual ten degrees below fashion and,
utterly refusing to look at The book,
she said:

that my husband wouldn't pay for it. -

lis that sop unused the girl, and when
she left the house, she for some reason
or other started right down town.
The lady of the house might have for
gotten the incident in five or six years
but for a sort of climax. When her hus-
band came up to dinner he handed her
copy of Home and Mother" with
the remark:

THE VERMONT PHdzNIx AND RECORD FARMER, FRIDAY

property is gono unless it is redeemed by
payment Of them. Neither that company
nor the Central Vermont can get its road out
of the possession of the court until the re-
ceivers' debt is paid. 1t is not strange that
the property thus pooled and put to hazard
in a great enterprise should be lost to its
original owners. Such is common fate. The
compromise decree Of 1864 has been claimed
to have no more binding effect than con-
tract of the parties. This is not true, be-
cause the property was in the custody of the
court in an adversary proceeding, and this
was merely an act of procedure in its admin
istration. The consent and agreement of
the parties cannot detrnct from its judicial
character and binding force. The court had
full jurisdiction Mt the time, and the decree
was founded ON evidence as well as consent.
1t is therefore binding upon all parties until
il is set aside, and the claim that the proper
ty, by some mysterious alchemy, has drifted
out Of judicial hold and has been set adrift
because of some error in procedure or admin
istration is without legal foundation and
would be carcaturo upon justice. 1t has
not, being once lawfully in tho custody of
the court, without the knowledge of the
court or parties so drifted out of jurisdiction
that rights in il now can only be settled by
wreckers in the scramble for salvage.
This abstract covers the points of the
opinions except as to details. The decision
establishes the claims of Gov. Smith and his
associates and says that their management is
and always has been judicial, and that they
hold office by virtue of the appointment
of the Chancellor. This being 80, the trust
indebtedness of about $1,000 600 is made
a first lien upon the corpus of the Vermont
Central and the Vermont and Canada respec
lively and payable first, before any claims Of
the Vermont and Canada, or the first and sec
ond mortgage bondholders. Several minoi
questions, in the way of accounting, are still
to be settled; but the great issue in the cast
| is now disposed Of

The central Vermon. Lltiga.lon.

The opinion of the Supreme Court in the
great case of Langdon and others against
the Vermont and Canada railroad company
was filed last Saturday. 1t was drawn up for
the court by Judge Redfeld, and the sub
stance of the opinion is as follows:
That the possession and management of
the Vermont Central and Vermont and Cana
da roads and property connected Herewith
has been in the court of chancery and in the
hands of managers appointed by and holding
for the court as its officers, continuously from
1861 to the present time that the cause in
which they were appointed during that whole
period has been and still is pending that the
deduction which has been drawn from the
opinion of the supreme court delivered by
Judge Barrett in 1877, holding that the ju-
dicial custody and management of the prop
erty ceased 1864, is erroneous and unfounded.
The management has been judicial, and for
many years the parties interested consented
to and acquiesced in all that was done, and
no possible errors in procedure can impair the
jurisdiction of the court, its judicial hold of
the property, or the judicial character of its
DEGREES. The court had full judicial power
to appoint the Central Vermont company re-
ceivers and managers on petition, as it did in
1873 and the debt legtimately incurred by
the managers since 1861, after applying all
equitable assets, is charge in the nature of
an equitable mortgage upon the whole prop
erty of the trust; and it will be enforced by
strict foreclosure. The claim made in argu-
ment that this be enforced, if at all, only
against the income of the property is not sus-
tanned. 1t is upon the corpus" Including
franchises it stands like any other trust.
The owners pooled their property for a
common purpose, the expenses incurred in
its administration they thus imposed upon
the property, and they must be paid. The
statute of frauds has no application. The
Canada company has no estate but its perpet-
ual right TO receive rent. AS this is subjected
to the payment of trust debts, its entire

Mr. Blaine on the Issues in the Maine
CanVnAa,

Ex-Secretary Blaine has written letter on
the pending campaign in Maine. He places
the independence of the judiciary to the front
in the canvass and declares Gov. Plaisted's
refusal to appoint Judge Liffey intended to
punish him for joining in the opinion of the
court that overthrow the count of 1879 and
80. He says the distracting interests of the
Presidential campaign in 1880 prevented q
fair expression of public sentiment against
the Garcelon usurpation, and that the people
will be free to condemn it this year. In ma
teral politics he makes the issue between pro-
lection and free trade prominent, and holds
that the intelligent labor of the country will
sustain the Republican policy of protection.
He recites the remarkably prosperous condi-
ton of the country as strongly favorable to
the Republicans and, after paying cordial
tribute to the excellence of the state and con-
gressional ticket, and to Senator Frye, con-
cludes; "Our prospects are SO promising,
the surroundings of the party in Maine are
so suspicious, that we all have heart and
courage for the work of the campaign. The
divisions that distract the Republicans else
where are unknown among us, and it may be
our happy fortune by unity and victory to
set an example to the Republican party of the
whole country, and thus to induce that har-
mony and cooperation which are indispensa-
BILE to SUCCESS"

FLORENCE" is dead at the advanced age

All this means, evidently, that there are
people in CIRCUITS old counties who would
like to see a bolt. This, however, is some
thing which they are not likely to see tried
this year, and which all wise Republicans
would deprecate In justice to Judge Po-
lands supporters it must be said that we do
not think the harsh and supercilious tone of
the Watchman's article represented the gen
eral anmus of the Poland men in the con-
vention toward CIRCUITS friends, and the best
thing the Orleans county people can do is to
SC othe their wounded sensibiltios and vent
their righteous indignation by properly be-
iaboring the Waterman for its indiscreot and
hyrterical scream of Joy and self-adulationi
and there let the matter rest.
