Town Meeting.
A Full vote-old oficers Reelected.

A Full Vote-Old Officers Reelected.
The annual March meeting had rath-
er more than usual interest this year
to the people of ST. Johnsbury for rea-
sons that will appear to those who read
the report. The meeting organized by
the choice of n. NJ. johnson moderator.
Mr.. johnson called William Higgins to
the chair and proceeded to make q
brief speech, in which he nominated
Hall, on the ground that she was ca
pabie-having been assistant for some
time-and dependent on her labor for
support. He gave Rutland as illustra-
ton of town that cheese female for
clerk. Judge Bowman didn't wish to
be ungallant, but thought it unadvis-
able in an effice so important to make
the change suggested, and nominated
the present incum bent, Capt. BlOdgett.
A ballot being called for, an hour and q
quarter was consumed in the operation
I
Blodgett, 50 for Miss Hall and eight
for Henry French.
On motion the next article in the
warrant to be considered was whether
the town would vote to substitute the
town system of schools for the district
system now in use. Rev. E. T. Sand
ford was called upon to explain the
town system, so called, which lie did
in very clear and concise manner.
He said if the town system was adopted
it did not include our union district
town, but that the union district could
come into the arrangement by a two
thirds vote at it's annual school meet
ing. He also said that the new system
did not assume any district debts; that
its advantages over the district system
were equality of privileges and equali
ty of taxation. Edward =. Allen OPP
posed the town system thought the
districts were able to take care of them
selves and run their own schools with
out board of commissioners or any
town interference. On ballot being
taken the town system was voted down
more than four to one.
After this ballot the other officers
were elected as follows: Selectmen,
William Higgins, Daniel Carpenter,
James r. Stevens. For Overseer of the
poor there were two candidates, Moses
Barrett and Joseph A. NOyes-Barrett
WAS reelected.

Death of a Former Townsman.

William ID. Weeks, judge of pro bate

H., last Friday evening, at the age OF
81. Up to 1851, Col. Weeks had charge
of the outdoor operations of E. & T.

the steam mill was built near the depot,
Col. Weeks was superintendent of the
stock company which operated the
same until the business failed, when
he removed to Lancaster where he has
since resided. We understand Col.
Weeks's death was caused by slight

SOUTH RYEGATE.

Six years ago the Ryegate granite
company was formed with small cap
ital. Jan. LIST this year its inventory
was about 100000, with debts about
$4,000. Some of the creditors being
dissatisfied the works shut down Feb
23, and the store was closed. Very
soon the works were started under
John Bailey, Esq, of Wells River as
receiver. Meantime efforts are made
to form q stock company and make
satisfactory arrangements with the
creditors with fair show of success.
1t requires large sum of money to
develope quarry, erect suitable build
ings and to work up business OF this

this and are just ready to go on. Shall
it stop when all is ready for success
