Hon. Henry C. Fisk, of Morrisville. senator
from Lamoille county, and editor of the News
AND CITIZEN, has been appointed u. s.. consul
to st. Johns, Pc, upon the unanimous rec
Ommendation of the Vermont congressional
delegation. The appointment is an excellent
one, and highly pleasing to his many friends
throughout the state. 1t is to behoped, how
ever, that attention to the duties of the office
will not intefere with Mr. isk's most valuable
abors as chairman of the board of trustees of
the Reform School at V~ergennes. If the con-
sulship trespasses upon the trusteeship, then
the governments gain will truly be the states
loss.

WHEREAS-John G. Hutchins, of Philadelphia
Pa, on June 25, 1889, the 9th anniversary of his
birthday, in token of his grateful remembrance OF
the spiritual privileges afforded him in his early
youth by the First Congregational church of VOL
colt, VT, bestowed upon that church the gift OF Il
communion service.
ReSOlUed, That, while we recognize the gift to
be one of unusual intrinsic value and elegance OF
design, we do not fail to find in it and in the ac-
companying letter that which renders the gift by
far more precious to us, Uiz., the product Of the
loving device and labor of the donor himself.
ReSOlUed. That we deem the gift to be the mark,
not of the donors kindly remembrance of the in.
dividual members of the church, but rather of the
recognition of his spiritual indebtedness to the
church as a teacher of Truth.
RESOLVED, That, as the gift is a testimony to the
fact that the seeds of spiritual truth faithfully
sown Gods people do not fail of fruitage, we, the
present members of said church, take new heart
to do with our might what our ha nds find to do.
ReSOlUed. That it is our sincere prayer that
Gods blessing may rest in abundance upon the
donor and that his remaining days may be crown
ed with the glory of righteousness.
ReSoICed, That a copy of these resolutions be
presented to the donor, also a copy entered upon
the rec )rds of the church, and the same published
in the NEWS AND CITIZEN.
