In proportion to the rise of in
dividual interests and cliques
general public interests decay.
When men are tumbling over
each other to get control and
awaiting themselves of clanish
aids and prejudiceS; when a
government, whether federal,
state or municipal, divided into
departments, each one struggling
to vindicate its management by
rejecting on every other depart
ment by any and all means in it's
power, without reference to cam
dor or veracity; in short, when
each move discloses a combina
ton behind which turks individu-
al designs, then the general good
is lost sight of. Then selfish
schemes flourish, and honor,
patriotism and regard for the
public good decay.

Vermont's Influence in the Senate

This leads US to indulge in con-
CALCULATIONS on the influence OF
Vermont in the Z. S. Senate. For
a little State like Vermont to
stand at least equal in influence
to any State in the Union fills the
minds of Vermonters with great
pride and satisfaction. And this
is all the more agreeable because
1t does not grow out of ostensi-
BILE attempts and designs to ex-
ert an influence. Like the silent
commands of true merit Yer
mont commands unsolicited re.
spect. The strength of Senator
Proctor is not weakened by
spasmodic or intermittent ennis
sions, nor subjected to contempt
by vain display or constant an
tagonisms with Others as do
second rate champions. When
he rose iii the Senate last week
he seemed to exhibit the full pro-
portions of a statesman. The
amendment which he offered was
in it's nature in a sense antagon-
istic to Senator Hawley's design,
but it was so framed and so dis
cussed by Senator Proctor that
no one could learn from the
speech that it had any relation
to anybody's work or any thing
except the subject and men to
which it related. The speech was
a masterpiece which may receive
little notice in that respect be-
cause it contains so little of blus-
ter or that which is sensational.
But it is full of strength, zest, hu.
mainly and justice, and almost
absolutely impersonal, except
when beinginterrupted he turned
away the interruption with al
most merry humor so that it did
not in the least disturb the cur
rent of his thought or his ex-
preston. Whenever he speaks
there is substance in the subject
and in the speech. And there is
much more Importance to the
subject to which we have alluded
than would seem to be at first
glance. 1t is true as Kossuth
said that although the glory of
battles belong to the leaders in
history, yet the common soldier
knowing that where he falls he
will lie unknown, "unknelled,
uncoffined and unsung," still
will march bravely up to can
mons which "vomits death and
destruction upon him." But
notwithstanding this one of the
greatest inducements to valor
and devotion and to incur peril
in defence of country is the con-
seriousness that devoted patriot

Ed Legg appeared before Co.
Judge Homsher, this morning and

1t seems that Mr.. Lesg, while

warrant was sworn out by Mr..
Gillespie and placed In Sheriff
