has gone to The happy hunting ground,
and the government has no more lands
to open up.
Vermont has in the weekly Graphic
published at Burlington by d. A.
Rowe, a paper in every respect equal to

A bill that passed the New York
legislature and was recently signed by
Gov. Morton, requires all the barber
shops in the state to suspend business
