similar damage. The damage to
Brattleboro's highway is put at
$40, 900 or $4,000, while the per-
sonal losses cannot be estimated.

a dwelling house escaped some
injury, blinds, windows and chimneys
being destroyed in many cases.
Nearly all bridges between Barre
and East Barre are gone, and three
bridges between Barre and Plainfeld
are also gone. The damage to
streets, yards and gardens there will
reach over $4,000. A large
amount oflumber was carried away

since 1869. The total damage in

$4,000.

Goodwin Smiths New History.

In his "Outline Of Political History"
Professor Goodwin Smith attempts to re-
wise our accepted estimates of Washing
ton, Jefferson, Webster, Clay and other
great Americans, and to rearrange the
status Of those characters in the annals
Of statecraft war, and politics. In this
task, which he clearly finds more con-
genial in purpose than easy Of execution
he is less instructive than entertaining,
and vastly more ambitious than effective.
1t need not disturb our admiration for
Goldwin Smith to discover that he re.
fuses to place Washington among the
great generals of history. Our British
brethren have always stuck to that no.
ton and are entitled to all the comfort
they can get out of it. Nor need we dis
tress ourselves that he regards Jefferson
as man who might have developed into
an anarchist if the temptation had pre-
sented itself. That is merely an assump-
ton which pleases Mr.. Smith without
any impairment of Jefferson's historical
status.
This authors estimate of Hamilton,
whom he regards as "a born aristocrat,'
of Aaron Burr, "a local Catiline," Of
Madison's "prim mediocrity" and Clay's
''jingoism," are interesting and some
times amusing. We know Goodwin
Smith too we'll to take him as seriously
as he takes himself.
One striking thing about this work
seems to be that the history it contains
is not new and that its new things arc
not history. York Herald.

Chicago's Shamrock.

There is in the Irish village at Chicago
a stone which Lady Aberdeen said was a
genuine and historical article from Blar-
ney. In this belief it has been kissed by
tens of thousands Of visitors, but it now
turns out that the Countess of Aberdeen
was mistaken. Sir George Colthurst,
on whose estate the Blarney stone lies,
threatened Lady Aberdeen with an ac-
ton for libel for asserting that the stone
at Chicago was the genuine article.
Whether there was any ground for a
libel action may be doubted, but Lady
Aberdeen had, Of course, no desire to
maintain in the face of positive state
ment to the contrary that the stone al
Chicago was the genuine article. She
has accordingly agreed to withdraw the
statement and publicly intimate this in
the United States.
The truth is that though the Blarney
stone is not at Chicago there is stone
from Blarney in tho Irish village at thu
exhibition. The real Blarney stone
would not bear transportation to Amer
;ca, but in this case probably one stone
from Blarney is as good as another
Bradford Observer.
