Rev. G. w. Gallagher read his re-
signation as pastor Of the Congrega-
tional church at Montpelier Sunday.
He prefaced it with the most scathing
remarks ever heard from a pulpit in
that town. The pastor and church
have not labored in harmony for some
time. Mr.. Gallagher was formerly a
Presbyterian clergyman, but became
a Unitarian, and was pastor of the
church of that denomination in Keene,
N. III. When he resigned there he
gave his parishioners a tongue lash
ing similar to the one in which he in
dulged at Montpelier. -Ph9nir.

The time for holding the annua
muster of the State militia was
brought up Gov. Fuller said that the
troops could go after the third weel
in June better than at any other time
but final action ON the matter was de-
ferred. The commission decided te
accept for the State building only such
articles as were offered for decorative
purposes, as the national commits
sion had ruled that no exhibits entered
for competition could be placed in the
State buildings. Articles of woman's
work intended for exhibition in the
woman's department of the fair will
be accepted for inspection at Mont
pelier prior to April 1 by a special
committee, consisting of A. j. Sibley,
FL. Ell. Mcintyre and Mrs e. M. Chand-
Ter.

elected superintendent of the sheep

1t was decided to erect a pavilion,
to cost $1,000 in the agricultural de-
partment for the maple sugar exhibit;
it was also decided to build apavilion
in the department Of mines and min
ing for the exhibition of samples of
stone, marble and granite. This pa
vilion will cost $500 and will contain
80 cubic blocks eight inches in size
representing stone from every quarry
of commercial value. The designs for
these two pavilions have been made
by Jarvis Hunt of Weatherfeld, the
architect of the State building and the
contracts for the erection were ap-
proved. The dairy exhibit will cover
90 linea1 feet of case room and will
contain So or so packages, the prod

When the legislative appropriation
bill came up for consideration in the
House, in committee of the whole,
Tuesday, Mr.. Dingley of Maine, whom
the democrats always dread to see on
his feet on such an occasion, made a
sharp exposure of the results of two
years of economy in House with 100
democratic majority, elected on a ba
sis of retrenchment and reform Mr..
Dingley said that the appropriations
made at this session would aggregate
! 1881 100000. AS they were $5O7 ,O0O,-
900 at the last session, the total ap-
preparations made by this congress
$685., 100000 made by the Fifty first
congress, an increase of $50, 900, 900.
The tariff legislation foreshadowed
would undoubtedly diminish the rev.
enue, and deficiency during the next
fiscal year seemed almost inevitable.
The Hawaiian commissioners were
informed to-day, that the administra-
ton has decided to accept the prof
fered annexation Of their country. 1t |
now remains for congress to act and
the most precious gems in the Pacific's |
crown will become ours.
Our Minister at Honolulu was as
prompt as he is patriotic. There is
reason to believe that Great Britain's
seeming acquiescence in the proposal
TO annex Hawaii to the United States
is ruse, and that if our country had
made a sign indicating a disposition
not to accept the country's offer, the
British government would have quick
ly placed it under the British flag.
The question of compromising the
Queen for the material loss of rank
and privileges, and the Princess, who
was in line of succession, for damage
to her prospects will be considered.
The ex-Queen's income has been
about 100000 year, but if any pro-
vision is made for her it will be on a
much more modest plan.

Martin, the Kansas claimant for a
seat in the senate, is in Washington.
He said to-day that there was not
much difference between the Popu-
lists and democrats; that both are for
free trade and free silver, and that he
would go into the democratic senate
rial caucus. This candid claimant APP
pears to be democrat for spoils and
a Populist for upsetting business.

Algernon Charles Sartoris, husband
of Nellie Grant, died at Capri last Fri
day. Mr.. Sartoris was the son of an
English family of distinction. His
marriage to Miss Grant took place at
the White House while Gen. Grant
was president, and attracted much at
tention at the time. Gen. Grant was
secretly opposed to it, but gave no
public sign of his disapproval. The
marriage proved an unhappy one, and
though there has never been a formal
separation, the husbands time has
been largely spent in distant quarters
of the globe. Mr.. Sartoris, the elder,
was very greatly attached to his
daughter-in-law, and kept her and
her three children with him as much
as possible.

PERILS OF THE MODERN
NAVY.

No more interesting statement has
been made of late about naval affairs
than that of a British officer on the
China station, who said that the great
English fleet is a wholly uncertain
factor in the problem of maritime war
fare or coast defense. ave knew
what we could do in wooden vessels
when there was no other kind, said
he; 'they had been tried and their
capacities for battle were understood
and measured. But no one can say
what an armored vessel would answer
for in an engagement, particularly since
the loss Of the Captain and Victoria.
And there, too, is the question OF
whether some genius would not, under
the stress of emergency, invent YES
sci that would blow ours out of water.
The officer then referred to the proba,
bic result of an attempt Of the British
fleet to raise the American blockade CT
the southern coast during the civil war
and after the Trent affair. ave should
have sent our vessels there only to have
them destroyed by the Yankee mont
tors, then the only effective ironclads
ahoat. Under similar circumstances
some craft might again be devised that
would render the present type of battle
ship as obsolete as were our walls of
oak when the cheese box on the raft
sailed out Ct New York harbor for
Hampton Roads"
What the British officer said of his
own navy applies as well to the war
marines of every ether country. The
ocean ornaments Of the world are

An Untold Horror.

Strange as 1t may seem, there is one
situation even worse than that the
Chicago irmen were in. United States
naval Ulcers in the city say that half
the horror of the Victoria disaster has
not been told. They are perfectly
satisfied that some of the compartments
were closed before the ship went down
and that in those compartments were
men who found themselves at the bot
tom Of the sea alive, with no possible es-
cape and with enough air to possibly last
them few days, may be longer. There
they were TO slarye or choke, Gagged in
iron and certain that nothing could
save them.-PhtladelPhia Times.

OUR PROTECTION FROM CRIME

Annexation is sometimes objected to
by old-fashioned people because its
boom, as they say, would bring
crooks and desperadces here who would
make life and property insecure These
slurians and troglodytes admit that
wealth, prosperity and development
might come of ii, but they are willing
to lose these advantages to escape the
bunco man, the footpad and the burg
lar. Such theorists might refuse to
accept a present of herd of cattle be
cause such a possession had been known
to attract stock-thieves. They are of a
class that believes in letting pool
enough alone, men who let 81 dare
not wait upon 81 would like the cal
in the adage.
1t is true that in booms as in othei
good things the bitter comes with the
sweet; but as respects dangerous i'm
migration Hawaii is far better able tC
cope with it than any other country
with which we are acquainted 1t can
not be denied that booms in thu
cities of a continent bring man,
men of ill-repute to their foci AID
venturers cannot be kept out The
cities are open to the strolling traml
and the travelling confidence man, anc
there are few means of keeping account
of newcomers When a crime is com
mitted the criminal finds the way o.
escape comparatively easy and in few
days may be thousands of miles from
the. scene of his depredations,
On these small islands, however, the
case is very different If branch 0
Pinkerton's detective agency were es
tablshed here, hardly crook whose
picture is in any Of the rogue's galleries
of the world could land on the grouI
without feeling the hand of detention
and arrest upon his shoulder. 81
small is this archipelago that not ont
criminal in thousand could esCap,
the eye Of thoroughly trained detec
tive force, and these facts would e
very far to keep the dangerous classe:
at a distance. Our insularity is better
for us than a city wall. Reinforced
by such police skill as money could
procure, it would be an almost abso.
lutte defense against the enCroaChment
of the predatory guilds of the world-at-
large.
Even if the way hither was open to
men of criminal repute and intent that
would be no valid objection to a
means of making large city of Homo
lulu and a productive garden of the
group Of spanning the Islands with
rails and whitening their coasts with
the wings of commerce. But where q
perfect espionage is possible at oul
few ports of entry, and where the
strongest OF barriers may be RAISED
against both ingress and egress, the
act of resistance to a boom on the
theory that local crime would be dis
proportionately increased thereby, be
comes an affront to common sense.
