The little political ring in which Ropes

can be finally undone. No one expects
a restoration of the old slavery, but it
would not be impossible to reduce the
colored people of the South practically
to a condition of serfdom by the abso-
lutte suppression of their votes and the
denial to them of all other political and
personal rights guaranteed by the con-
stitutional amendments. The election
of another democratic president may
make the supreme court a democratic
body within five years. This is contin-
gency which should not be lost sight of
by people who supported the war
for the Union, who want the results of
that war resolutely and perpetually
maintained, and who would have the
dangerous and pernicious doctrines of
the extreme state-rights school forever
buried

Mr.. Lamar's Confirmation.

The reasons why Mr.. Lamar's APP
pointment for justice of the United
States supreme court should not have
been made and confirmed have been
stated and restated in our columns. but it
is not impertinent to keep the matter
well before the people, for the event
may have far-reaching consequences.
In the executive session Senator Hoar
urged the rejection of Mr.. Lamar on
these grounds:
First, that Mr.. Lamar had violated his
oath of allegiance to the United States;
second, that Mr.. Lamar was opposed to the
thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amend
ments to the Constitution, and that if any
questions under those amendments were to
come before the court Mr.. Lamar would
still oppose them; third, that Mr.. Lamar's
previous legal experience and training did
not qualify him to take a seat on the SUI
preme bench; fourth, that Mr.. Lamar had
nearly reached the legal age at which JUS
tees are retired with pension, and, under
those circumstances, his confirmation was
inexpedient.
These reasons were sufficient to JUS
tify the rejection of the appointment.
1t was shown that Mr.. Lamar repre-
scented the slavery-holding South of
1860 and the rebelliOus South of 1861,
the ku-klux South of 1876 and the solid
South of 1884; that he represents the
Calhoun-Davis views of state-rights
and the Mississippi plan of suppressing
the colored vote. In answer to the as
sertion that Mr.. Lamar has b" Judi
cial temperament" it is recalled that
during the trial of one of the ku-kluX
cases he jumped over the railing, in
open court, and knocked down the
United States marshal. He is on
record as sanctioning southern bull
doing and election frauds, as denying
the constitutionality of the war amend.
ments and as holding that Jeff. Davis
was not guilty of treason. Now that
he is elevated to the supreme bench
will he change his views?
The opening of the supreme court
for the admission of men who hold tC
the righteousness of the lost cause is
an unpleasant fact. 1t is only through
! this tribunal that the results of the wal

Vermont Republican Clubs.

The movement for the formation of a
State League of Republican Clubs is assum-
ing substantial proportions, and the indica-
tons are that the convention of campaign
clubs which is to meet here on February IL
will be attended by large number of repre-
sentative republicans from all parts of the
state. Clubs have already been organized
in Rutland, st. Adams, Richford, Yer
gennes, Bristol, Fair Haven and West Ran
dolph, while preliminary measures have
been taken for organizing clubs in Manches-
ter, Brattleboro, Island Pond, Montpelier,
Rochester, Bellows Falls Bennington, Bur
lington, Middlebury, Milton, Swanton,
Proctor, Newport, Windsor, Brandon, Hyde
Park Sheldon, Bradford, st. Johnsbury
and Woodstock. The proposed formation
of a State League of Republican Clubs under
the plan formulated by the National League
has received the Endorsement and active
support of many leading republicans in Yer
mont. Guy G. Noble, Esq, the Vermont
member of the executive committee of the
National League, has returned from New
York, where he has been to confer with Presi-
dent James p. Foster of the National League
in reference to matters connected with the
formation of State League. President
Foster expressed much satisfaction at the
reports of the progress that was being made
in Vermont in the formation of republican
clubs, and he has accepted an invitation to
be present at the convention of clubs to be
held at Montpelier February 10. President
Foster will be cordially welcomed by the
republicans of Vermont when he visits the
capital. Montpelier Special to Boston Journal

Woman Suffrage Convention.

The fourth annual convention of the Yer
mont Woman Suffrage Association convened
at Bellows Falls Tuesday night, January II
The secretary's report showed one hundred
fifty-two members. The address of the even
ing was by II. b. Blackwell of Boston On
Wednesday these officers were elected
President. Mrs. Mary f. Tucker of Brattle-
boro secretary, Miss Laura Moore of Barnet;
treasurer, Mrs. e. j. Nelson of st. Johns

finance committee, Mrs. A. ID. Chandler of
Barton Landing, Miss Laura Moore of Bar
net and Miss May Spencer of Wilmington.
A paper was read by Mrs. c. j. Clark of
Peacham on the liberties and privileges
granted to women during the past century.
1t was voted to send the following telegram
to the governor Of Washington Territory
"The Vermont Woman Suffrage Associa-
ton, in convention assembled at Bellows
Falls, VT, this day earnestly hope you will
sign the womans suffrage bill" The adj
dress of welcome by Rev. Mr.. Morgan was
read by Rev. Mr.. Todd, to which the presi-
dent, Mrs. Tucker, responded. Addresses
were delivered at the afternoon session by
Mrs. NJ, III. Temple of Lowell, Mrs. Housch
of Brattleboro, Rev. George Chase of Derby
and H. B. Blackwell of Boston. The even
ing address was by Mrs. Mary A. Liver
more, who made a spirited appeal for
woman's rights.

The Wretched and Wrathful X. V.

The r. Y. improved the opportunity
afforded by the meeting of the Dairy
mems Association in Montpelier to
devote good part of its editorial space
in its last issue to the publisher and
agricultural editor of the WATCHMAN,
and to distribute copies free at the
meetings to all who would take them.
For the distinguished honor(?) thus
conferred we suppose we can not be
sufficiently grateful! AS usual the r.
y, in its wrathful mood, quite overdid
the thing, its dnin,uS and purpose
being so plainly disclosed that the in
tended effect was in a great measure
neutralized. The insolence, mendacity
and crankism displayed in the editorial
screeds of the r. Y. fully equaled any
thing that has appeared in the Richford
Gazette and Londonderry Sitter, from
which the r. Y. has evidently bor-
rowed its editorial tone. The unani-
nous reelection of Mr.. Tinkham as
president of the Dairymen's Associa-
ton shows the extent of the Il. US
influence among the dairymen. The
r. US attacks upon the publisher of
the WATCHMAN are quite as harmless
and they afford us considerable amuse-
ment. We were particularly edited by
the r. US desperate and pitiful APP
peals for more subscribers. Give it
5000 subscribers-yea, 10,000-and it
will proceed to reconstruct the universe
in accordance with the grand plan
formulated by its able and infallible
syndicate of editors. But it sorrow
fully intimates that with its present
feeble list not much can be accom-
plished. Hence its signs, groans, wall
ings, incoherent mutterings and other
symptoms denoting profound mental
distress. Evidently the r. Y. has
reached crisis in its brief and miser-
able career If its appeals for popular
support pass unheeded; if the farmers
can not be made to believe that it is
other than a canting, hypocritical
sheet-a wolf in sleeps clothing; if re-
publcans do not sympathize with its
efforts to discourage republican or
ganization and belittle national issues a;
if its mighty influence does not avail
to prevent the nomination of Mr..
Blaine, or to secure the nomination of
one of its /" banded capitalists " for gov
ernor-then its wretched imposition of
" farmers organ will be rendered in
effective for further service, and it will
see the dread handwriting on the wall:
"Thou art weighed in the balance and
found wanting" So mote it be.

DEBATE on the Blair education bill
has taken much time in the United
States senate during the past week
The senate has passed the bill refund
ing to the states the amount of the di-
rect tax of 1861. This will dispose of
about 100000 900 of the surplus if the
measure passes the house. Mr.. Hatch
of Missouri succeeded in getting passed
in the house his bill appropriating
1856, 900 for agricultural experiment
stations in various parts of the country,
and Mr.. Belmont $50, 900 for the inter-
national exhibition at Melbourne. Both
houses have passed the bill which
wipes out the difficulties that have
grown out of recent interpretations
and endorsements of the postal laws re-
lating to second, third and fourth-clas

power machine of f. NJ Wright, the bee
hive of II. ID. Davis the honey exhibited by
II. III. Holmes and the foundations of Van

interesting discussion ensued on market
ing honey. The discussion on the use of
full sheets of foundation in the broad cham
Der was opened by H. l.. Leonard of Bran
don and f. III. Mcfarland of st, Adams and
quite generally participated in. 1t seemed
to be the general opinion that their use was
profitable for the body of the hive as well
as the surplus.
