the place will do his utmost to give
the stranger favorable impression
of the place and, If possible. induce
him to locate among them. especially
if he has means which can In any
way add to the business of the place,
and it is this which is doing so
much to build up the west. He adds
that if Vermonters would stand by
their state and homes in like manner
they could find enough to truthfully
commend, and the state would suffer
less by the emigration of the young
men," The Vermont farmers boys
who have fair farms in Vermont or
have thirst for trade, will not 60 to
these new countries to follow farm
ing If they leave Vermont they
will either drift to Boston or New
York, or seek some stirring western
city; they will hardly leave Vermont
to follow farming in Dakota or Mon
taua, and yet Dakota and Montana
are good places no doubt. The fact
is Vermont should encourage her re-
liable sons to stay east, and enjoy
those advantages their fathers and
mothers have raised up for them.
Retain your sons and daughters and
your capital at home and enjoy those
things that your industry has secured
for you, and let the Norwegian go

THE BOOM WEST.

We notice in New York paper
that ssthe western fever is once more
raging in Vermont, and from present
indications at least one thousand citi-
zens of the state will effect settle
ment beyond the Mississippi this
year. Among those who are going
to Dakota are nearly one hundred
old soldiers As yet we have not
heard of any very violent western
booms. What we hear the most of
is supplications for funds. The Yer
mont farmers boy generally respects
The associations of the old home aud
the business world, and he has little
inkling for pre-enpting claims in
some dismal, uninhabited territory.
The prospect altogether is not invit-
ing. We find it described as follows
by correspondent of the Vermont
Chronicle. Zone of my neighbors
has two sons. One is IN the west,
and has been for the last II OF
Is years, and is always ready to
wax eloquent over the beauties and
advantages of his section over any IN
Vermont, and still he is so poor that
he is deprived of the comforts of life,
and his father sends him money
nearly every year 10 keep him and
has family from suffering. The 9th
er son is settled here in Vermont
owns a nice farm, with fine build
iDgs, pleasantly located, within bal
a mile of hourishing village; {
good lean, good farming tools and
nice sLOek of cattle. He is not yer,
much ia debt, has everything as com
Portable as heart conld wish, and We

say one word in favor OF Vernon
as farm country. Such has beeI
my observation. A person may g

ANDY JOHNSONS SCHEME.

Chauncey NJ. Depew has given to the
press the details of 4 convers alton with
General Grant that throw out some i'm
portant history of reconstruction days.
At the close OF the war JOHNSON, who
had always been antagonizsd as "white
trash and never recognized socially by
the slave-holding hierarchy, wanted to
hang for treason every rebsl leader.
Grant opposed the plan as in violation
OF the terms of their surrender and even
agreed to stand being court-martialcd
for disobeying the orders Of the COM
mai der-in-chief. Suddenly Johnson
changed bis plans and wished to organ
ize congress with the hierarchy fully
represented and sufficient northern men
to make showing. Ho asked Grant
for the support Of the army, but was in
formed that such course would pre-.
cipitate an internecine war, and instead
OF supporting it he would use the power
Of thu army TO arrest the conspirators.
To get rid Of Grant, johnson tried to
send him to Mexico on a diplomatic mis-
sion but failed, and the scheme fell
through. Johnson's change OF policy
was occasioned by the promise Of the
rebel leaders to accomplish his lifelong
him social recognition.

CALDWELL'S FUTURE.

When mon like Howard Ssbree and
Frank r. Coffin consider Caldwell a
good point for Investment and show
their faith by putting their thousands
into business hero, others with loss cap
ital may consider the cue good one
and follow it. They have been good
friends Of the town and their con-
6donce has never wavsred. The past
year has been dull business ons-Hot
only here but everywhere. Especially
was it felt in this town; only two years
old now, the general stagnation struck
it whom the grass was short, and it has
been Nip and Tack since, the only rays
OF brightness being the occasional visits
Of those two gentlemen and their exas-
peratipg confidence. Caldwell has been
suffering the fate of all railroad towns,
building ahead OF the country, but M
like most OF them tho country is catch
ing up quicker. The desert (P) lands
to the south and west OF town can fur
nish homes for thousands of families
who will gladly come when the grand
capabilities OF this region are made
known. Thst is now being done and
accounts for tho presence of SO many
strangers. The pref ctors of the thirty
mile csnsl just scross the river are not |
men who put their money into hole in
The ground and leave it thsre; they are
n business enterprise, and they are a,
work accordingly. They know that to
'eelize on their Investment they must
ettlc people along their canal-people
With energy and capital to go ahead and
improve; and to that end are they al
york. w
From MIR. McGse's company, with a
esident partner in the state of Pennsyl-
