WEST BRATrLEBoRo, Jan. /, 1889
Ed Vermont PhWHic: If those who are
being asked to sign petition to Congress
in opposition to Senator Blair's education
bill and bill for the better observance of
the Sabbath, will look carefully into the
ground Of opposition, | think they will be
slow to give their names. Some who have
signed in haste and ignorance are now re-
penting at leisure, The move seems to be
in the special interest Of the Seventh Day
Baptists. Yours truly,

Bolivar, the largest elephant in captivity,
arrived at the Philadelphia loo on Christ
mas day in season to indulge in an elabor
ate holiday dinner. The bulky pachyderm
devoured barrel of cabbage, two bushels
of potatoes, which he crunched under his
feet and then mixed with hay, forming a
sandwich loved by elephantne epicures, a
peck of onions, - louves of bread, a bushel
of carrots, and half bushel of bran mash
He washed this down with go gallons of
water and toyed with 200 pounds Of hay
for dessert The three bushel peanut bas-
ket was filled six times during the day to
appease Bolivar's insatate NAV. Bolivar
is 26 years old and still growing.

"a s,ntc of No Particular Importance"

The failure Of the Nicaragua canal com
pany to obtain a charter from Congress is
used, of course, to the company's discredit
10y the advocates of the Panama scheme.
The Panama Star and Herald of recent
date, commenting upon the Nicaragua com
pany's appeal to the Legislature of Yer
mont, says
Montpelier and Nicaragua as centres of
thousands Of eager investors, where sub
scriptou books may be advantageously
opened to secure the millions necessary for
the work, will naturally suggest brilliant
possibilities to the minds of our readers
Books opened in Hong Kong and Timbuc.
too would answer the purpose equally well,
for no doubt all the world will be red hot
after Nicaragua canal bonds But it will
be evident that a company hailing from a
state of no particular Importance, and
whose interest in a maritime canal across
the American isthmus is somewhat shad
owy, will scarcely merit the respect and
confidence due to one which has secured
national Endorsement and a formal charter
from the government of the United States 81
The alusion to Vermont is whitening, 81

THE NEWS IN BRIEF.
4 wcII-known Passenger steamer
Rurued.

The well-kuown steamer, Bristol Of the
Old Colony line, plying between Fall River
and New York, was burned at her Fall
River wharf last Sunday morning The
fire started near the kitchen soon after six
O'Clock The fire apparatus on the steamer
was brought into use, and the crew worked
with great vigor to save the boat, but the
joiner work Of the state rooms, saloon and
,tairways was as dry as finder, and draughts
through the steamer caused a fearfully rapid
spread of the flames, so that before the city
fire department arrived there was mass
of fire sweeping her almost from stem to
stern. only few passengers were left on
board, but some Of these did not understand
the meaning Of the first alarm, and were
only aroused 10y the cracking of the flames
near by All succeeded in escaping, but
some with only part of their clothing, and
others by crawling over the railing near
to burning timber. One man with two lit
tie children, a boy and girl, who occupied a
state room, was awakened by the sound of
cracking flames near by, and barely escap
ed with his little ones undressed, but with
their clothing in their hands. Another
young man had to borrow clothing in which
to go to his home in Newport.

The question is whether it viii be one or
seven.
Several Republicans who are elected to
the next House are in uncertain health
Several whose names are often mentioned
are regarded as having "A very uncertain
tenure Of life. Every indication Of i'll
health on the part Of a member of the next
House is regarded with anxiety, and add,
another argument to the many advanced
| in favor Of AN extra session. This being
the case, the candidacy for the speakershiI
is becoming more heated every day.
