mat aiucik Clark, of the Messenger, had defamed tho Court, and added We therefore respectfully request that John Pier-point, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Vermont, as soon as may be, issue his writ of attachment against the person of said Albert Clarke, commanding him to appear and show cause, if any have, why he should not be committed for contempt of court. The Advertiser also requested a candid expression the subject from tho press of ermont As our own candid opinion is that no one man or paper can very seriously damage the court, as long as the judges do their full duty, wo have thought it would be the kind est course towards tho young editor of tho Advertiser not to notice his appeal. Others of" our Vermont contemporaries thought dii- ferently, and wo copy somo of their re- sponsos: from the Rutland Herald flnr en lid eD ertiser should have addressed this request to his tather From the St. Albans Messenger If the Supreme Court chooses to lena liseu SIlch service for the Kins, we shall not shrink fiom summons, and ir we do not mane eves of a disinterested public, every a 1 ood, in the assertion that we have ever written about the court, it will bo be cause we are aoiiriveu 01 me opportunity, auu meanwhile it is possible mat people win as tnem-selves how much freedom there womld be left in Vermont if certain gentlemen could always have their way. From the Rutland Globe.

Cur "candid" opinion is, that however admirable and liraiseworiny nuai anoction may be, it should never be displayed at me expense 01 common sense That no matter to what extent "one Albert Clarke' has carried his criticism of the courts of Verinrnt and the several iudses composing them, in the and we think his criticisms have not always been in good taste or justifiable It is no fool of himself in the Advertiser as we "candidly" ininK in luis iiisianco uq uas. juai 11 lUDeuiiurci thfl has libelled and defamed the several judges of tho sapreme court, "sitting as chancel- lors," they aro capable of seeking a proper remedy without tho aid of the editor of the Advertiser. That the youps man would do well to spare a lew mo menu ol his valuable time, read up on American history, study the common law history, study the common law, and ascertain ol what contempt of court consists, and to what extent the ourt can punish for contempt.

V. B. A. Fourth of July. Ail citizens of Burlington who feel interested in a proper celebration ol the Centennial anniversary of our National Independence, are requested to meet at City Hall, on Saturday, May 2tth, at 7 p.

to make the necessary arrangements. JO 1). HATCH, Committee appointed A. G. UITTEMORE, by Board ot Aldermen A.TAYLOR, to call the meeting.

The ninth anniversary of Decoration Day occurs on Tuesday, May 30th. It will probably be more generally observed than any previous one, flr the Centennial year gives a fresh impulsa to patriotism and stir? arfh the gratitude 0f the people to those who fought and died that wc may have a country. I'artizin feeling seems to have been generally dropped, in connection with tho celebration and while the soldiers' organization of right take the leal in the arrangements, ail others, with few and rare exceptions are gla 1 to-no-operaic. In this city the Html Army is raising funds, not only for a proper observance of the occasion, hut for the erection of neat headstones over the graves nine or ten wildiersand members of the po-t, which have hitherto been marked only by the fiigs and fl jwers. Wc trust thes-eason will be such, this year, as to aSbrl plenty of flowers and wo urge all who ciiltivato flowers to do their part towards -reuring a fall supply.
