b@ Business is booming at the MIS-
FIT CLOTHING PARLoRs, 262 Second
street. Business is never dull where
Push, Pluck and Energy are dis
played. The people are alive to their
own interests, and they always seek
the place where they can get the
most for their money.
That extra choice bargain lot Of
fine MISFIT SUITS and OVER
COATS, spoken of in our last adver-
tisement, are going at a lively rate.
If you want phenomenal bargain
don't hesitate. Come at once. An
other choice lot of Suits arrived yes
terday. New goods are rolling in all
the time. We never have any Old
or Shop-w Goods. You are sure
of the Very Best Cloth and the Very
Best Make. Better still, you are
sure Of the Very Lowest Prices.
Don't SILVER and Shake!
So low are the prices at the MIsPIR
CLOTHING PARLoRs that there is no
excuse for going without a good, sub
stantial and warm Overcoat. We bat
ter down all opposition by buying only
where we get good Overcoats far be-
low their real value. If we paid
full price for our goods we would
have to ask full price for them. But
we never pay full price for them.
Often we pay less than half price.
Is it any wonder, then, we can sell
low?
PANTS ARE A NECESSITY
and low prices are luxury. We
have both. One pair OF our fine
Custom made Pants will outwear
two pairs of ordinary ready made
trousers, and yet our prices are al"
always the lowest.

EPITAPH.

M. Edator,-A friend of mine has
kindly shown me copy Of an cpl
taph taken from a tombstone in the
churchyard at Dunkeld, Scotland: to
the memory of Margaret Scott, who
died at Dalk eth the 9th Of April,
1751. Margaret Scott was the moth
er of the Duke Buccleuch and a de-
scendant of Sir Walter Scott, and
supposed to be the ancestor of some
of the SCOTS of Orleans County, VT.
The following is the epitaph which
may interest some of your readers:
Stop, stranger, until my life you read.
The living may get knowledge from the dead
Five times five years 1 lived a virgin life,
Ten times FIVE years l lived married wife,
Two times five years L lived a widow chaste,
Now, tired of mortal life, l rest.
From my cradle TO my grave, I've seen
Eight mighty kings in Scotland and queen.
Four times five years the Commonwealth I saw;
Ten times the subjects rise against the law;
Twice did see old 'Prelacy' pulled down,
And twice the cloak was humbled by the gown.
The end of the Stewart race 1 saw, and more
l saw my country sold for Englands glore.
Such desolation in my time have been
The end of all perfection have seen.
The names of the kings are James 6tl Charles
LIST, Charles I'd, Cromwell James the Exile, Will
lam and Mary, Queen Anne. George 1st, George I'd

QUERY ABOUT SCHOOL
DICIPLINE.

Should corporal punishment be al
lowed in our schools? Is corporal
punishment prolific source oil illite-
racy?
To the first I take the negative
side, and claim it should not be al
lowed. Scholars are supposed to be
endowed with common sense and
conscience, and for any misdemeanor
the teacher should arouse these fac
ulties, and then appeal to their man
illness and self-respect, and try to de-
veIop the pupil into higher type Of
manhood and womanhood.
Corporal punishment neither APP
peals to reason nor the conscience
it excites the animal passion in both
teacher and scholar, treating them
like brutes VOID of understanding,
which is degrading in its effects.
In olden times it was considered
perfectly right for teacher to fog
scholar; so there was a time when it
was considered right and honorable
for man to whip his wife, when in
his Judgment, he thought she deserv-
ed il F.: but now he wOuld be considered
a brute, even though he was in a state
of intoxication, and the police would
| hurry him off TO the lookup on short
notice. We live in day of progress
sion; and although our schools are
not as good as they are in many
states, public sentiment says you are
to teach, not whip, our scholars. Bat
am asked, Does the law forbid q
teacher striking a scholar?' | an
swer by asking, Does the law say
she may striker Humanity raises
its voice and cries, Thou shalt not
strike" But we must have order.
Most certainly; no school is WORTH
anything without order. Are we
obliged to scold, pinch ears, pull hail
and whip to have order? As far as
my observation and experience goes
the best schools and the best reguiat
ed families are those that nevel
strike: their word is like the laws o.
the Modes and PeIslans. But it i!
founded on good judgment, Wis
tact, human nature, kind Teproof
considerable and loving forebearance
No teacher can properly govern :
school until she can exercise all 0
these qualities, hourly, in the school
room.
We cannot now find the mode
, teacher for every school. but Ii is a
| important tina: they understand hoy
; to govern as it is that they should b
; qualified to give instruction from tn
text books.
, | well remember teacher, who th
+ second week of school, went 10 th
committee to ask permission to leav
q the school. There had been no tror
BILE; all were satisfied. We were a

1T WON'T DOWN.

Our contemporary at Newport
counsels "peace" over the result of
the stealing of the shire, and person
ally we have no particular desire to
agitate question that for the time
being seems settled, in way, but
when three-fourths of the people are
dissatisfied it is hard to keep some
body from muttering, if he does no
worse. A question settled right is
settled ever, question settled wrong
is setted never; hence those who
are Inconvenience and outraged will
have their say. Our contributor
with his long name has an article to-
day. We have never had any i'll
feeling against many who consider
themselves benefited and convenien-
ced by the removal Of the shire at
q time when the county did not wish
to have it done, and TO a place where
a very large majority of the people
thought it ought not 60, but there
are q few of the arch conspirators
who deserve to bear the chief part of
the blame, who may expect to hear
pretty loud mutterings for years &c
come.

MR.. MORRILL, AND THE SILL
YER QUESTION.

Last March Mr.. Blaine predicted
that President Cleveland would find
it necessary to look to the republican
for defence and support, unless he
changed his opinion upon some of
the more important public questions.
The debate upon the silver question
goes far to verify Mr.. Blaine's pre-
diction, as but one democrat thus far
has championed The position assumed
by the president in his inaugural.
From the beginning of the discussion
the silver men have had it their own
way. Senator Morrill, however
knocked away their financial props
last week, in an able and eloquent
speech in which he presented a mas
terly argument for honest money.
He showed clearly that the inevitable
result of using silver in the payment
of the public debt would be to ban
ish gold or two thirds of all our pres
ent metallic circulation, leaving US
only a silver coinage, result that
could not possibly fail of producing
a most serious crisis. He indicated
that the step then to be taken would
very naturally be the issue of new
edition of legal tender greenbacks
the supreme court having decided
that congress has full power to dc
this, and the consequent triumph
after years of the fat money advo
Gates. Senator Morrill's speech haC
the effect of calling out Senator
Beck again, and the debate that fol
lowed it proves conclusively that th'
programme of the silver men is tC
force the treasury department tt
pay our silver on the public debt
AS has been said, it is a desperate
scheme, and Mr.. Morrill, has done
valuable service in exposing it, ant
its results if it be successful.

HCRATIO SEYMOUR.

Hon. Horatio Seymour of New
York, who filed large place in po-
litical life for some twenty-five years,
died at the residence of his sister,
Mrs. Roscoe Conkling, in Utica, n.
Y, on Friday night. The immedi-
ate cause Of his death was cerebral
effusion, the usual process of death
in old age. He was born at Pompey
in 1910, and was educated st Geneva
College and at Captain Partridge's
military school in Middletown, Conn.
After entering the legal profession
he was elected to the New York leg
islature and served as speaker of the
assembly. In 1850 he was nominal
ed for governor by the democrats,
but was defeated by two hundred
sixty-two votes. He was elected
governor in 1852, but was defeated
in 1854 by three hundred nine votes.
He was for peace in the war crisis Of
1861. In 1862 he was again elected
governor, but in 1864 he was defeat
ed by Governor Fenton. In 1864
and 1868 he presided over the demo-
cratic national conventions. In the
latter convention he was nominated
for the presidency, on the twenty
second ballot, and was overwhelm-
ingly defeated in the election by
General Grant. After his defeat be
retired to private life and thereafter
could not be induced to accept any
office in the gift Of the people OF of
presidents. He found more enjoy
ment in private than in public life,
and during the past twenty yeals he
had made some valuable contribu-
tons to the press upon agriculture,
internal improvements, social science
and other economic and philan-
thropic questions.

WOMAN SUFFRA AGE.

Quite number of women are 60
ing up and down the country agitat-
Ing the female voting matter. This
question is a very simple one and ell
ia the hands of the women. We doubt
not that just as soon as the intelli-
gent women of this state, by any
thing like a unanimous desire and re-
quest shall signify that they want
the ballot put into their hands, the
privilege will be granted, so far as it
cal be, by the lords of creation. !"
But until there is some indication
that the wives, mothers and subStan-
tial women of the state want the bal
lot, there will need be no fearful SYM
pathy in their behalf. Certain talk
ing, masculine women, who care a
great deal more about nOtoriely and
the opportunity of getting themselves
on 10 the platform than they do
about their children, theiI homes and
their legitimate business, will always
be found to eXpatiate on woman's
enthrallment and her woes and mis-
cries; but all this is nonsense. When
the women Of Vermont really want
the right of the ballot, the male vot
ers will be pleased to hear from
them.
