Smith, John j. Owen, Il. d. c. Robbins,
Henry n. Hudson. Thomas J. Conant,
Brainerd Kellogg, Clarence f. Blake and
others have furnished approved and
widely used text books for academy,

romance the work of Daniel p. Thomp-

the Otter creek flows and the Green
Mountains stand.
We have an assured place in poetry,
the poems of one of our number, Mr..
John g.. SAKE. having gone through
more than 10 editions in this country and
England. In criticism also we have a
place through the works of Hudson; in
reports and digests of law, through
Daniel Roberts and others in hymnology
through the labOrs of Beman Burnap,
Hatfield, Rankin aud Hiram Mead. 1t is
certainly something that wherever
English speaking people meet and part,

The late +. j. Phelps was a great law
yer. He loved the study of law for its
own sake. lie traced back its principles
to their divine origin in natural and in
revealed religion. Judge swift relates in
his history of MiddlebuTy that Senator
Phelps, in his discourse on the death of
Daniel Webster, dWelt very much on the
conviction. in which he was deeply con-
firmed. that the p%erpetuity of our civil
and political institutions would depend
wholly on the prevalence of Christian
principles among the people. His son,
the ambassador and ale professor of law,
was vet more decided in the same opin-
ions.
In the early history of Middleburv col
lege there was a professorship of law,
filled by Daniel Chapman, who erected
an ample building as a prospective law
school. Through its lawyers, the college
has achieved much of its best work.

An exchange gives some good advice
in the following to patrons of catalogue
houses and also to local business men
In nearly every paper you pick up you
will notice an account of some one who
has purchased a bill of goods from some
catalogue house, and after paying the
freight or express charges has found
that the articles have cost him more thar
they would had he bought them of a
local merchant. Why is 1t that people
are so often misled in this way? We do
not think 1t is because they wish to
p%atronize the city firms, but because they
have an idea that they can get things
much cheaper. In a great many in
stances they do not know the price for
the articles charged by the local dealers.
If the local merchants would get into the
habit of advertising their prices they
would soon do away with the custom of
sending away for goods which can be
purchased Just as cheaply of the home
merchant.
