MERIDIAN LINES.

Editor Reqister-I would like little
space in your columns to say a few words
in regard to an act passed by the last
legislature. House bill 403, which has
become a law, was substitute bill for
House bill 40, which required the estab-
lishment of meridians in the several
towns of the State. and that the bearings
lnnd courses of all lines thereafter taken
IN any town, the survey of which was Il
matter of record, should have reference
to such meridian. The latter was in
tintely the better bill, but the friends of
the measure thought it too radical. and
that this fact would cndangcr its pas
sage, hence the substitute bill which be-
came a law. This law does not require
anything to he done, but towns and cities
may establish meridians and surveyors
and Others may use them it is all option
al, but it is a step in the right direction.
The object of the original bill was to
have all surveys in this State taken from
and have reference to the true meridian;
line that never changes, Il line as fixed
with reference to this earth as are our
Green Mountains, the same yesterday,
to-day and forever. the same in ages past
as to-day, and which will remain the
same as long as the earth revolves on its
axis. By the past and present system of
surveying in this State the bearings of
all lines have reference to the magnetic
meridian, or, which is the same thing,
the direction which the magnetic needle
hdppcHS to take at the time of making
survey; this meridian. or needle. is con-
tinually changing from year to year: it
is not the same to-day that it was yestcr-
day and in the past, and, Judging from
the past, it will not be the same to-mor-
row and in the future that it is to-day.
This change in the magnetic needle is
not constant, regular change. but vari-
able and tickle, and is governed by no
known law. and it is utterly impossible
for a surveyor to retrace old lines or lost
boundaries with any degree of certainty;
hence it is the only source of all the dis
putes and litigatons in regard to bound
AIRY lines.
If all our surveys h0d been with refer
ence to the true meridian, the surveyor
could now trace old lines ono matter how
old with U0erring certainty, and there
would be no cause for disputes and liti
CATION in regard to them, and it would
have been of incalculable benefit to the
people of this State. especially farmers
and real-estate owners, and to all future

Pretty She VIII Be.

An English woman is beautiful by
nature or not beautiful, and there is an
end of the matter. A Parisienne can
rarely compete with the beautiful En-
glish or American women in features or
in complexion and purity of skin, but
she exerts such an effort of will in max
ing herself fascinating that she often
surpasses her rival in spite of natural
disadvantages. Take Rachel, for in
stance. Nature gave her thin face
with a large and prominent forehead,
deep-set eyes, sunken mouth, a point
ed chin, q scraggy body, and lean arms.
Out of these natural materials the little
Jewess, by dint of genius, will, passion,
love, and gold spent on beautiful OBJ
jects, made the Rachel that men will
ever remember-a woman of Corinth or
of Syracuse, with the caressing gesture
of statue by Coysevax, the intensity of
water color by Gavarni, lips that al
ways caught and reflected the light, and
in her sombre eyes the subtle flame of
intelligence
In the PariSienne, from the shop girl
to the grande dame, there seems to be an
innate cutie of her person, respect of
her flesh, pride in her silhouette and
bearing, and withal constant effort to
refashion and remake her If in accord
ance with marvellous ideal of beauty,
grace, elegance, and youth; to take from
antiquity, from the East, from all ages
and all countries that which has consti-
tuted their peculiar elegance, and then
to reduce those elements of elegance to
the Partisan formula. Every Parisienne
is living work of art, the product of a
mysterious collaboration of surround
ings.
