Charvin, our enterprising fruit dealer, has 9old sinca the first of February the astonishing quantity of five hundred boxes of oranges and lemons, or about 000 single fruit tho largest amount, proba bly, ever sold in Burlington in an equal time. The average price was something like fifteen cents per dczen.

Mr. Chauvin keeps one of the best cigar and fancy gro cery stores outside the large cities and even in them it would be difficult to find a tetter equipped establishment and one where the prices are as low and we can safely recommend him to our readers as keeping a large and varied stock at the lowest of the prevailing low prices. He sells low for cash and his customers have the DsneSt of his long-acknowledged shrewdness and business acumen. The Coming Presentation of Pinafore, for the ucncui oi me uome.

Senator Morgan had three hours and half in which to advocate the passage of the bill, yesterday, but it is not improbable that an effort may bo made to virtually apply tho gag to the republican Senators, who may desire to oppose, by insisting upon a vote to-night.

An angry scene en sued. Bismarck declared that the deputies should mutually respect the laws of politeness. He said he merely wished to restore the Zollverein and must for this purpose re model the railway goods tariff which was unduly favorable to foreign products. He still adhered to the whole of bis programme. The President of tho Chamber ruled that Lasker's attack on BUmarck was severe but not iosultiDg.

Bismarck refused to retract his remarks and quitted the House. From London. Loneo.v, May 8.

MORGAN REVIEWS THE VETO MKSFACH. Washington, May S.

Senator Morgan reviewed the veto message and contended that the President was not a part of the legislative power, as bad been claimed. It was never intended he should be, but that ho has right only to stay the passage of a law. When the executive said he could not unite with Congress in their legislation, i was a duty they owed to their constituents not to the executive, to carry on the gov ernment in a constitutional way. Congress had a right to say tho army should not bo used at the polls, unless in pursuance of constitutional authoi itv. and should never ba employed to prevent free elections.

In the further re view ot the President' veto, Senator Mor gan said tho peoplo iu their own timo will rebuke this pretender. The arrogant an preposterous assertion that Congress could not employ a method of legislation to which he objected, was answered by tbe course of tbe President himself. While he was a member of tbe House he voted for legisla tion in appropriation bills. His conscience at that time was not full grown. It was not sufficiently matured to grasp the great constitutional questions.

It was to be deprecated that tho President so far forgot himself as to charge improper motives to the majority in Congress, and this soandal ought to bo rebuked. Senator Morgan left the President where bis reputation belongs. By passing a bill to prohibit military interference at the polls as a separate measure, the majority wishes to remove the slightest ground of executive objection. The veto message was in the nature of a stump speech, a mere review cf the demo- delegates to be commissioners for Vermont casion with most gratifying results.
