TWO llEillls WITH TUB IYIN1 YEAU TnE inoS JUUCIE ASI) TUB AME1IICAN "l'EEIl" JUsT A wonn ABOUT NEW teak's MIIIK TWAIN'S NEW BOOK CULT-EDGED C1UIUTY THE SIX CESSOIt OF "I'INAFOIIE." New York, Jan. .th, 1880. The old year slipped out weeping lu an Icy sort of way, and in its last week took oil with It two prominent New York citizens, lto corder Hacked Is dead. So is Giorgo (Jones) tho Count Jotuncs. Tho former was tho terror of burglars and snipe. The son of a prirao actor, his father being herhops tho very best Impersonator of I'alstall who ever appeared ou any stage, ho had tho coolucts of the boards about him. As he delleatily pared his nails, ho would pleasantly remark to a convicted culprit that ho was tho biggest ruffian he had ever met, and then jerk out the dreadful scuteuco "Twenty years." His life as threatened almost daily, but ho took his walks abroad with a pistol in each pocket of his velvet sack coat, aud it was well kuowu he was a dead shot. To get the drop on him rupilred more nerve and consciousness of right than is possessed by tho aerage thiif or murderer. Hackett was a great sports man, and while not a popular m in, had many warm friends, and retained his responsible office under any nnd, all changes of parties in the municipal government. Count Joannes, the one Amrricau nohlo mau who boro a title, who was nully n noble man, having received a genuine title from some petty German prince palatine, was at one time a very fair actor. He then hecamo a fair lawyer, but some bee in his bonnet so iulluenced him that ho became very eccen tric, aud of lato years was "guyed" iu tho most outrageous way in everything ho under took. His peculiarly shabby.gi ntetl attire, stilted tragic walk, gloomy brow nud porten tous wig and dyed mustache, hi- blaiug dec oratiou and lofty mien were familiar to every one, from tho newsboys up. Sothc.ru carica tured him, and tho ,Su;i used to publish his preposterous nonsense with an air of solemn awe and exaggerated respect tcry funny in itself. He died attended by his adopted daughter, Avonia Fairbanks, vhom he had hifrifi.dcd with his usual Quixotic chivalry. He hadn't a real enemy iu tho world, and many who laughed oftenest at tho poor, harmless old man w ill feel sorry now he is gonu. Even the rowdy persons ho occasion ally assaulted as he asserted Ins dignity nev er bore him malice. Whether peoplo should call in swallow-tails or frock coats, or whether there was going to beany calling at all in th" time-honored fash ion Unit mluj.tetl on ttirn? nlturen hjr the good Manhattauese, has been agitAting jwlite cir cles, but with the first day of 1880 all doubtH wero at rest. Everythiug went off in tho most jolly way, just as on luany happy New Years before, only possibly a little moro so, for the clouds are rolling further back every day and getting turned inside out, showing the silver lining. Tho earliest call of the day was paid by burglars to a Canal street dry goods merchant, whom they relieved of $8000 worth of silks and other fine goods. I spent a part of tho holiJiys in Hartford this year, and while there had the good for tune to meet tho mau who has probably giv en more people the luxury of a good laugh than any other individual ou this distracted globe. This description ought to be enough to identify Mark Twain, but to avoid all pos sibility of mistake I will meution that he is tho individual referred to. Twain has now in the pressof the American 1'ublUhlng Com pany of Hartford, a new bock which is going to ad J largely to his already env iahlu fame. Tho title of the new volume is "A Tramp Abroad," and it is a fit companion to the now world-famous "Iunocents Abroad." It is in the author's richest vein, nhich you know is saying u good deal, and shows his marvellous resourco and versatility. Charity allied with the light fantastic toe, or the leaders of fashion lu any other way, is apt to rake in more money than when liko a iolet blushing unseen. The remark is sug gested by the figures in tho caso of tho great Seventh Itegiment Armory fair which I wrotet about while it progressed. The natty young militiameu got $140,000 toward fitting up their new club houso nud drill room. Hos pital Saturday aud Sunday was a new idea over hero at any rate. Boxes, with little yel low Hags were placed at all tho ferries, sta tions of the elevated railroads und tho public places, where peoplo wero supposed to drop iu their odd pennies, nud collections wcra takeu up in the churches. The rcsulU wero uuder $10,000, which will bo divided among the hospitals. The graud charity ball comes off at the Academy of Musio on the Mb. This Is always the event of the season, and as this year it is to be a masked ball, will un doubtedly bring iu au enormous addition to tho treasury of the WiJows' and Orphans' Fund. Tho joint wizards of nitlody nud wit, "Piu afore" Gilbert and Sulhvau, have brought out their new farrago of pleasant nouseuse, "Tho Pirates of Penzauie," aud set every body laughiug. Wheth'r it is as good as Pinafore is its yet n moit question. Some siy it is a good deal be ter, both in words nu 1 music. Others say Ue airs, though very pretty and sometimes enchanting, are not "whistleable," and will lever be as popular ai "Little Buttercup" and Its sister ditties. Tho terrible disaster t tho Tay bridge in Scotland, where the Edinburgh express was precipitated by u hurricane, together with half a mile of bridge, into the raging waves 'below, has set tho engineers hero to thinking about our iron truss bridges Our elevated railroads are, iu fact, nothing moro nor less than enormous bridger. aggregating thirty miles iu length with numerous and very ub rupt curves. Huudrctlsof trains rush over them ut very brief intervals every day, aud while no serious accident to tho cars has yet happened, tho results of a very little careless ness would bo simply awlul.

Last Thursday morning tho grist mill nt East St, Johnsbnry, owned by Mr. McLeod, was destroyed by fire. Tho annual meeting of tho Vermont sheep breeders' association, will bo held at Middlebury the Uth lust. Mr. John P. Honard, tho builder of the Burlington Opera House, is very ill at Paris. He was taken with paralysis whilo traveling from Loudon to Paris, but is now said to bo improving. John O. Jcune, hardware merchant at Enosburg Falls, hrs failed. His liabilities unsecured are about $3000; assets unknown, but supposeil to bo sufficient to pay a good percentage. Tho Washington county court, nt its re cent session, adopted tho rules for practice recomtueudeel by tho Stato bar association, for tho purposo of having uniform rules of practice throughout the State. Tho firm of J. A J. M. Poland, publish ers of tho Vermont Watchman nud Stato Journal, has beeu dissolved by the retirement of tho junior partner, ou nee'ouut of ill health. Although negotiations for tho purchase of tho paper have been pending for several weeks, thero is no other change and Mr. Jo seph Poland remains tho solo proprietor. Hev, Jacob 8. Clark died at St. Johns bury, on tho 27th ult., aged 87 years. Ho was settled over tho Congregational church nt Morgan, Jan. 11, 1827- -a pastorate which was only dissolvcil by his death, and lacked but n few davs of being .'3 years. He was iu the active ministry for oer 10 years, but of late has not preached. In tho Washington county court, Josiah Seaver, 32 years of age, who confessed to burning various buildings in Waterfield, wns soutenced, last week, to 23 years iu tho state prisou. Charles Blay, found guilty of larce ny, was sentenced to two Jiars in the houso of correction ; Mark Daniels, ahoy l'.l years old, indicted for horso stealing, plead guilty and was sentenced to three years in the house of correction. Tho sentence of Uoal S. Carr, convicted of murder in the first degree, was respited ou exceptions by the respondent. - Mr. Geo. B. Noyes of St. Johnsbury, aged nearly 21, had epiite a iiuuiIkt of badly dccayeil tcetb which ho wauteel extract ed, and Dr. H. S. Calilerwood was called to administer chloroform aud also remove the teeth. Young Nojes's father was present and assisteil the doctor. After tuo or three teeth had been removeil the yeumg limn came out from under the inlluence of the drug, when more was given ; but before any more teeth were cxtnicted, and iu a very few mo. meuts from the time of tho second inhaling of the chloroform, tho young man sank away and died in his father's arms. Sevihe WrtTHKn IN Etnor-K.- Paris has been suffering from a period of severe cold weather as cruel and disastrous iu its effects ou the people us it utis phenomenal iu its charuiter. Suow fell to the depth of two f tit t or more, nnd ou tho 10th of llticeluber the thermometer marked several elegrees be low zero, au almost unlit aril of eecurrtncu iu that vicinity. Huudreels of thousands of per sons livo in Paris iu rooms in which fire is never lighted, and where there is no prepara tion for fire ; ami many of them during this cold suap literally perished of cold, or were swept away lo the hospitals to die there. Ono curious feature of this exceptional time was that mauy persons died of cerebral conges tion. The Parisians are so unused to harsh weather that they do not know how to pro. tect themseltes against it.. Few of tho poor er class are ever encased lu flannel; thou sands do cot know of it more than by came, and consider it a synon m for luxury. The Puiihians understood so poorly how to walk ou the snow that they were perpetually fall, iug ilonn, and many persons were grievously hurt. Tho municipal arrangements for street cleaning quite broke doun before this extra ordinary strain opou them. Avenues ordi narily as clean us parlor floors slowly became transformed into narrow ways, linetl on ether hand with snow heaps garnished with dirt and the lenviugs of tho kitchen. A thaw be gan ; then a cold snip sharply arrested it, and the Parisians appeared overcome with dis couragement. The omnibuses, drawn by fire, six or set en horses, rau nearly empty; tho horso cars ceased to ply ; people stayed at home aud grumbled nt the city council. Un til the first thaw arrived, thero were several deaths daily which wero clearly attributable to cold antl nothing else and this, notwith standing the fact that the most generous measures wero promptly taken for the relief of tho poor. The cold weather extended with greater or less severity through Germany, Austria, and Italy. Iu Itome snow fell for the first time since 1871, to the great delight and wonder of the children born siuco that date. Suow has also fallen in great quanti ties at Genoa, Venice, Verona, Milan and Florence. Mn. Tildes- Disuokoes. It may interest those persons who support Mr. Tildeu be cause ho is supposed to have a "bar'l" of money for election purposes to know that he has recently beeu compelled to disgorge $100,000 to tho St. Louis, Alton nnd Terre Haute railroad company. Iu 1802 this com pany became embarrassed ami was orelered sold. Tho stockholders decideel to buy it iu, aud appointed four persons to do it, one of whom wns Mr. Tilden. To do this and to settle old claims, tho conuuitteo issued a largo amount of bonds. When all the claims had beeu settled, it appeared that quite a largo amount of the securities remained iu tho hands of tho committee, which, instead of returniug to the company, they divided among themselves. In other words, having been giveu money to pay tho bills of the rail road, they kept tho chaugo. Two of tho committee, ou demand of the company, paid In $100,000 each, while two, 8. J. Tildeu and Charles Butler, refused. Actlou was bogun against them iu tho United States Court, but just beforo it came to trial Mr. Tildeu paid the) $100,000 of tho company's money which ho had had the use of sixteen or seventeen years. As he paid no interest on tho amount, ho must have realized a sum equal tu tho principal in that time. Xu.Vlurct lluril Time's.

Thero was great excitement nt times during tho day, ntul tho Stata Houso was packed with specta tors, but thero wero no violent demonstra tions, nnd tho local police preserved order. Et. Congressman Eugcuo Halo led tholtepuh llcans iu tho House, whero tho Interest of tho day centered. Thero were scenes tit tho Houso never be foro witnessed in New England, the Fusiou ista acting In utter disregard of all parliamen tary law. Tho supremo moment came when tho assistant clerk rcfuFcd to put tho motion to adjourn, and Mr. Hale, standing upon a desk, put tho motion himself, followed by deafening apptauso and the Immcdiato with drawal of tho llepublicau members. Tho whole audience rose, nnd then followed a tre mendous storm of applause. Tho ltepubll cans held a secret caucus Wednesday night todetcrmlne on futuro notion. It was thought that tho Hepuhlicaus would all qualify to day, Thursday, and participate In legislative octiou. The Boom in Papeu. Never since Its man. ufacturo has paper been so low as during tho past year. Tho lido has turned, however, and cheap paper is a thing of the past. Tho market began to stiffen in August, nuel tho price has gradually advanced until newspa per stands to-day from thirty to fifty per cent, higher than four months ngo. Book aud writing papers, envelopes, ami all paper stock goods aro in the same condition. Deal ers don't care to sell at present prices, ex pecting a further advance, nnd when one gets prices there Is generally a foot-uote to this effect! "These prices aro subject lo change without further notice." Manufacturers hato orders for mouths lu advance, and some aro running their mills night aud day. All theso things point one way: that tho time of cheap printing is over. With paper stock advanced in tho neighborhood of fifty per cent., aud everythiug thnt tho printer uses udvnnce'el more or less, it is idle to talk about the low prices of six mouths ago. There is no class of mechanics that work so choap as the printers, considering the amount of skill aud cost of material used, hut even they cannot work for nothing. ,S' JuhMbury CaUtlontdii. Of special interest to Vermont people is the publication of Mrs. Dorr's recent volume of poems entitled "Friar Ansiltno aud Other Poems," from the press of Charles Scrihucr's Sous, New York.
