'We can have no legitimate association with political parties, and we desire to avoid all complication with matters which do not belong to the business of the company." Guiuoid's Burial. A dispatch from Montreal says prepara tions for the interment of Guibord are being prosecuted with vigor. The stone sarcophagus in which Guibord's remains arc to be enclosed is being made Robert Reid of that city, one of the most skillful workers in marble in Canada. The two blocks of Montreal limestone from which lie coffiin is to be made were cut in the quarry at Cote St.

Louis. Each stone seven feet loug, lour feet wide, ana about two feet thick. In each stone a cavity is to be cut of sufficient width and depth to hold the coffin in which Guibord's body is now enclosed. The wooden coffin having been placed in one of the cavities, the two stones will be accurately fitted to each other and fastened together with heavv iron bolts driven through each stone and rivited at each end. The whole sur face of the sarcophagus will then be cov ered with a layer of Portland cement, mixed with scrap iron, of a thickness sufficient to resist the most powerful drills.

The stone coffin will weigh nearly nine tons. BRIEF CHRONICLE. Alexander II. Stephens is dangerously ill. There 13 a foot of snow on the Coulonge, about 150 miles from Ottawa.

Bartlett has declined the Democratic nomination for Lieutenant Governor. Mary Reed, George Vau Horn and Mag gie Casey were arrested in New Yoak Sunday night, on the charge of being implicated in the Noe murder. Diplomatic relations between Holland and Venezuela have been broken off.

The trouble has arisen from the recent revolt in the Venzuelan provinces. A delegation from Mississippi called upon trie Attorney-General on Saturdav. and deprecated any Interference in State altairs by the general government.

Several valuaDle horses have died from the epidemic. Wendell Phillips has published a letter in reply to Carl Scburz, in which he en deavors to sustain his financial theory. 111s arguments win not convince many of the desirability of increasing our currency.

The fellow arrested as the murderer of James H. Noe proves to be John Dolan, a notorious thier and blackleg, who, although but 24 years old, has already serv ed two terms in the Blackwell Island peni tentiary lor larceny. The jurymen in the Beecher trial contend that they are entitled to extra pay for their services. They have recently held several meetings, and at the last a committee was appointed to draw up a petition to the iioara ot supervisors in Brooklyn. Anton Wuensch, who committed suicide at Newark, N.

on Tuesday night last, had been married only four weeks; but it appears his wedded life became unbearable, so that he finally drowned himself. The evening he left home he had a serious quarrel with his wile. The head of Carrie Dawson of Remington Station, was completely scalped, by a revolving shaft that caught her hair. Her mother and sister have submitted to the taking of skin from their heads and shoulders for the wounded girl, and she will probably recover. The latest reports from Friar's Point, announce that there has been no more fighting, but everything is unsettled and agricultural interests paralyzed.

The negroes there threaten to hang Brown, the sheriff, and Smith, the candidate for chancery clerk, if tbey return, for having caused the disturbance. An Ottawa jury, who evidently believe the owners of steamboats and locomotives should be held responsible for the bad conduct of the sparks from their funnels and smoke-stacks, have just rendered a verdict of $210,000 against the Ottawa river navigation company for the destruction of Edwards's mills at Rockland, last summer, by sparks from one of their steamers. The hoisting works of the Utah mine, in Virginia City, Nevada, were destroyed by fire, Sunday. The loss is a quarter of a million-dollars. The works were recently completed with machinery to sink a shaft to the depth of 2,000 feet.

The engineer stood at his post hoisting out miners until he was badly burned. Four men, who remained below when the engine was abandoned, escaped through an old shaft. A case of lynching, in which the lynchers did not come out altogether ahead, occurred at Forest City, 111., Saturday. A horse-thief named William Pemberton had been captured, and was being taken to jail by the constable, when a mob succeeded in getting him away, and, after firing several loads of shot into his body without killing hiin, stiung him up to a tree, but not before the constable, who made a desperate fight for his prisoner, had mortally wounded one of the lynchers and Pemberton had terribly cut another one. street lamps were lit.

If it was a very dark night yon might have to walk home without the aid of a gas-lamp. Postmaster Jewell has written to the managers in Alabama, to answer to some applications for office, that he must have good men for responsible places, and that he prefers good Democrats to bad Republicans. The Court of Appeals at Montreal has just decided a case somewhat analogous to the Guibord case, and has ordered the cure of St. Lambert to baptize a child and register the baptism, overruliua his plea of justification under the orders of an eccle siastical superior. The controversy now going on about the currency reminds the New York Ensuing Post of a pithy paragraph which fust saw the light in the Philadelphia Packet, nearly a hundred years ago: "I had money enough to buy a hogshead of sugar.

I sold' it again and got a good deal more money than it cost me yet what I sold it for, when I went to market again, would buy but a tierce. I sold that, too, for a great deal of profit, yet the whole of what 1 sola it lor would attcrwara Duy out a barrel. I have now more money than I ever had, and yet I am not so rich as when I had less. 1 am sure we shall grow poor er and poorer unless we fall on some method to lower prices, and then the money we have to spare will be worth something." Even Wendell Phillips ought to be able to see the application. Correction.

JVditcr Messenger: The Premium List of the Franklin County Agricultural f.nd Mechanical Society, as printed, in your paper, made it appear that two Mowers received 1st premium this being a mistake as the records show that the Win.

On the night of Thursday, the 31st ult, forty-pound tub of sugar and, about half a barrel of pork were taken from the house recently occupied by Ira Armstrong. The house, vacant at the time, was entered by the thieves through the cellar window. Crops in this vicinity are generally good oats, however, were somewhat rusted in some localities. Much of the corn is sti out of doors, and probably not half the potatoes are yet dug, owing to the contin uous rainy weather. Apples are a light crop.

Norlh Enosburgh. ATTEMPTED ROBBERY BY A TRAMP HE 13 FIREf) UPON AtfD ARRESTED, About midnight last night a tramp en tered the barn of Daniel Woodard at North Enosburgh and stole a horse. But fortunately, just as he was entering, Mr, W's sou. Byron, heard him, hastily dress ed, took his revolver and arrived at the barn just as the fellow was leading out the horse. He ordered him to halt, but in stead of that the thief made haste and at tempted -to mount.

Woodard fired, -but without other effect than to frighten the horse so that he got awny. Bytlsat time others arrived from the house and the thief at first took refuge in the barn, but seeing that he was cartain to be captured, he rushed out, gained the railroad and ran towards Enosburgh Falls. The rest pursued, firing some half a dozen shots at him, none of which took effect, but he was soon overtaken, and was to have an exam ination to-dav. Before entering the barn he had stolen some clothing from some neighbor just above. He is a hard looking French-Canadian.

in this town is pro gressing slowly of late on account of the steady rains. Courtcnay and McCormick for some reason have relinquished work on their section below the village. Reuben Brush our druggist at the Boro, has recently completed and opened one of the coziest stores in the county. Judge Mudg-ett and wife and R. M.

Blaisdell and wife left town last week on a visiting tour, the former with the intention of making a trip via the P. road to Portland thence by steamer to Boston, expecting to be in attendance at the Festival given by the Worcester County Musical Association at Woroester next week, and the latter to see friends in Essex and in Southern New Hampshire. Junius Wires and wife, who were for many years residents of this town, but whose home is now in Wisconsin, are visiting among their many friends in this and adjoining towns. One Isaac C. Laythe, who former ly lived in this part of the world but who now claims a residence somewhere in the west, has been visiting hereabouts lately in company with a woman purporting to be his wife which by the way may be the case as he is known to have several of them staid about a few days and disap peared.

Soon afterward a man arrived from Newport, in pursuit of the team driven by him which Laythe had had for two days for the expressed purpose of driving to Jay. Since then the team has been found in Swanton, but Laythe and have not yet come around to settle for the use of it. ST. ALBANS, OCTOBER 12, 1875. Butter Oct.

Sheriff Morrill sold a horse this morning at auction to Hiram Piatt of Svyanton, for 1347.50. A hand of gypsies marched through here this morning, and are encamped in the outskirfs of the village. There was a little snow squall up the valley this morning.

Considerable snow is reported from the mountains. Skcels received 20 gallons of nice fresh oysters this morning. Invest in this sea-fruit, and it will do you good. The beautiful snow made its appearance on our streets this morning, but we are ulad to say in homoeopathic quantities. SI.

A few days since, Mr. William French, of the town of Bennington, fell from a tree while picking apples, end was so seriously injured internally as to cause his death. Incendiaries are at work in Burlington. Monday Dight an attempt was made to burn an old cottage on the grounds of Mrs.

Cilley declined the invitation, when they knocked him down and forced some whiskey down his throat. With the whiskey some poisonous compound was apparently mingled, for Cilley was at once taken sick, and Monday his life was despaired of. The North Troy Palladium says that a man named Rixford who has lived in that vicinity a short time, left last week, not with another man's wife but with another man's sister. He took a piece of potatoes to dig on shares and his wife helping, thinking she would get enough to last through the year, but her leigo lord sold potatoes and took the money to pay his and Mary Ann Cook's travelling expenses. He left a wife and three children to the cold charities of the world.

The three tramps who wore arrested for (making into the house of Thomas Smith, of Georgia, some time ago, were brought before Judge Royce and received their sentence thi3 morning.

He leaves a large circle of friends in all parts of the country. His recitals in St, Albans last fall will be remembered by CRIME IN GENERAL. Editor of Messenger: On looking over the record of crim9 that is constantly filling the newspapers, all else is cast iuto obscurity, as we see how the world is filled with sin, degredation and misery. Talk not of civil war and bloodshed, laying low our fathers, sons, and brothers more fall in the vast army of crime than all that fell in the war. If the sword has slain its thousands, crime has slain its millions and is still slaying, while the sword has ceased from our laud.

Crime is ou the advance, spreading death and misery in its path, and "where, oh wfiere will it end," is the cry of many hearts. Are not the last days approaching when God will come in his power and say to the wicked "Depart from me, I never knew youT' Who is not join ing the ranks to help swell the already vast arui.y? It takes the old as well as the young, the married as well as the single. If there are any virtuous men they ought to be worshiped, as did the ancients the goddess Diana. It has come to pass that a woman cannot walk the streets of our little towns in Vermont without having a man for a protector, but instead of a man it ought to be a six shooter and used with dexterity, too. The disgraceful scene that was enacted here a few nights ago ought to put the blush ot shame on every bonest lace.

Ana the actors was there one man amongthem, ust one, that was virtuous I VI ho helped to make those two defenceless women impure? And after they yielded their virtue and went downward from one false step to another, aud consequently became objects of public degradation, they were taken, two lone women, and in spite of all their heart pleadings, their naked bodies were covered with coats of tar and feathers. Now I ask the perpetrators of this outrage, "Was there one man among you all who had not committed the same sin you condemned them for? If there was, let him cast the first stone. Who was it that made them impure? Who is it that robs woman of her virtue? Who is it that because they cannot commit their vile, loathsome, diabolical work on women, aud the crime 01 mur der to the rest, for a covering? Why not condemn man for the same thing you condemn woman for? Why not apply the same coat to the men who are as guilty as they? Was there one who helped in that scene that was one whit better man tncyi ncn Christ came on earth it was to help just such poor fellow creatures as they. What did he say to her? "Go thy way and sin no more." lou cuurcn manners, who expect to follow in Christ's steps, cuiltv of such gross crimes, why did you not go to them and by a few kind words htly spoken lead themto liitn wno is aoie to save to the uttermost? If you had persua ded tbem to give up the life they were leading, how noble, how grand would have been vour work. Kind words can never die.

"Cast thy bread upon the wa ters and it shall return after many days, Oh my appeal to you to be true to vourselves and true to your Maner. rieip the fallen. If each one was just as he or she ought to be, there would be no fallen ones. Condemn the sin in men as well as women and let them know it; perhaps it will lead them to better lives. But let woman be her own policeman and watch herself and such disgraceful scenes need not occur, though if it had been a scandal in high life, as has been, a coat of greenbacks would have covered the women instead of a coat of tar.

Voorhees has a lasting grudge against the bank of California. He wrote out his first Ohio speech in advance, and sent slips to the newspapers. In the effort there was a very forcible allusion to the "gold-buttoned, gold-roofed and gold-beamed" bank of California, which burst because it had none of our beautiful soft money. Before the speech was delivered, the thoughtless directors of the bank resumed without giving the great man notice, and the newspapers, instead of leaving the passage out, printed it and poked fun at its author. It was recklessly cruel.

Important Rumor. It has been whispered about for several days, in circles interested in the vacant S.

"We have no doubt, from what wc know of Mr. Edmunds' tastes and aspirations, that, if tendered to him, he will accept the appointment.

That would give to Governor Peck the appointment of a U. S. Senator, to serve till the Legislature meets next It may be, however, that this is mere rumor. Tnere are several active candidates for the vacant Judgeship Judge Shipman of Connecticut, and Hon. Robert S.
