We quote from communication to arecent
Cleveland paper the following notice of one
Of the special gifts of the late rector Of st.
Paul's church, Rev. Ell r. Atwill-his hap
py way of giving out notices. The writer
in speaking of his pleasure in hearing Mr..
Atwill the previous Sunday at Trinity
church, Toledo, says; 81 note one or two
matters that struck me pleasantly on the part
of the officiating clergymen. One seldom
spoken of, but which shows great diversity
in different clergymen and in which many
appear to very great disadvantage, is that OF
gigihg ont notices. once heard Il leading
ayman say if he was to cndow professor
ship in II theological seminary, it would be
that of teaching the art of giving out notices
d,ccntly. On the occasion referrcdto it was
evident that the minister was master of the
art. The secret of success in notice-giving,
is not to say too much nor too little, and to
say the right things, These three requisites
were satisfactorily realized"
The death is announced, at st. Adams, in
his scventy-tilst year,of Edward q. Babcock.
Mr.. BabcCck was Il native Of Milton and in
early life was builder. In this capacity
he became connected with the Vermont Cen.
trail railr )ad about IS years ago. and most
of the station houses and other railroad
buildings from Windsor to Mortified were
built under his supervision. Afterwards he
was appointed general wood agent oil the
Vermont Central, and held that position con
tinuously some thirty years, when failing
health obliged him to rcinquish its activ,
duties though he still retained his conncc.
ton with the railroad. After his removal
from Mortified he lived in this city for =
time, and thence went to St. Adams to reside
seven years ago. Mr.. Babcock was married
to Miss Sarah Harris, who died in st. Al.
bans in June, 1877. They had six children

The SyantOn Break water.

George Bliss has made an examination Of
the different items that go to make up the
great river and harbor steal In the course
of his examination he came across an item
of $4,000 for "a brcakwatcr at Swanton har-
Dor. The site selected for the future city of
Swanton has not single natural advantage
for harbor; the prevailing winds in this
section are north west and south, and from
these three points the winds have unntcr-
rupted sweep, with not projecting point of
land to break its force. If Swapton ever has
harbor it must be an artificial one, and as
the commerce of the city would never
case one to be built by private enter
prise, the money bags of Uncle Sam
were drawn upon. With what re-
suit is shown by the following extracts from
review of Col Bliss pamphlet in the New
York Sun; "The harbor at Swanton. Yer
mont, gets $4,000 this year for the construc-
ton OF breakwatcr 1900 feet long. Tn to
date only $50 feet of this wonderful break
water have been accomplished, and vet it
has already cost 500, 900. BY this simple
rule of three We find that at this rate the COM
pletcd structure will cost the nation 81 1884,
625. That is considerably more than thou.
sand dollars for every man, woman, and
child in the township of Swanton."
The Swanton Courier comes to the defense
of the breakwater. 1t says: "A fishing
scow is occasionally seen anchored under the
lee of the breakwater while festive fishermen
bob for bass The fishing is excellent from
the breakwater," Thus it is again seen tina,
there are two sides to every question.

The Highway Law.

We notice that the first bill introduced into
the Senate was by Senator Burnap of Bur-
lington, to repeal the Judcvine highway law.
There seems to be general demand either
for the repeal of this law, or at least some
material amendment of it, sj.that the rcspon.
sibility shall rest somewhere for keeping the
highways in good and sufficient repair. 1t
is admitted in all directions that the roads
have constantly grown worse for the past two
years, and in some sections they are well
nigh impossible. Moreover the whole law
should be repealed. Certainly towns should
be as liable for damages from broken culverts
as for bridges of over eight feet span. A
large bridge is quite likely to be repaired be-
fore it ros down, but our experience is that
culvcris are not generally repaired until from
four to six weeks after somebody's horse
breaks through them.-Cor. Lyndon Union.

Query I?
Eds. Independent:

A citizen from the neighborhood
of Bunker Hill hauled load of wood
to your town one day last week he
was told that he must report to the
weighmaster's office and have it
measured, or run the risk of
paying IA fine. This he did without
reluctance. The clerk in charge of
the Office charged him 10 cents, but
never saw the wood. The gentlemen
asked him why he charged him ten
cents, rs he did not go out to meas
ure the wood ? His reply was, "for
driving on our streets, sir" ! have
heard similar complaints made, and
we don't understand it. Please eX-
plain. G.
THE price charged for a load of
wood, large or small, is 10 cts. The
larger number of farmers who haul
wood to town sell it by the load and
not by measurement. They can have
their wood measured, and will be
given memorandum of amount,
whenever they desire or ask for it.
