Hanging Still Popular. In the Senate on the 22d, Senator Carpenter called up House bill 292 abolisliingcapital punishment and proceeded to state hia reasons for fa voring the bill, which were : 1st. He could not vote to retain on our statute books, legtd murder or in other words a law compelling the sheriff to take the life of a human beinjr. 2d. He believed imprisonment for life with a portion of the time in solitary con finement to be more effectual in preventing crime than the death penalty, and jurors will be less likely to screen the puilty. 3d. The death penalty has failed to pre vent murder. It is a relic of barbarism and should give place to the advance of Christian civilization. 4th. It ia often the case that the inno cent are convicted of murder. If the crime is punished with imprisonment for lite, restitution can be made when the- in nocence of the convicted person is discov ered. This consideration was alone suf ficient to satisfy hira that the bill should pass. The only point we can see in th senator's list of reasons is in his claim that the innocent are sometimes made to suffer for the uuiity. We admit the soundness of the reasoning. In nocent persons hace been executed for murder, while the real criminals have gono free. It is a fact to be lament ed, but docs it prove that none should suffer death ? That rule applied in all the transactions of lift; would make a (jucer world of ours the theory be ing correct, but requiring more than human wisdom to apply it. Innocfiit people have been hung, yet we think they are not so frequent by any means as "angels visits" which arc said to be "few and far between." A ca.c of this kind might occur once in ten thousand times. It is also terrible to coutemplate the letting loose upon so ciety which is the case in countless instances of remorseless viliians to murder other innocent persons. Could a murderer bo sentenced to perpetual imprisonment, aud always be made to stay there, wc should lee! more rec onciled to adopt the senator's views Cut all know that many murderers are pardoned through the adroit geri tnanucnng ot well paid attorneys, tender hearted officials or venal gov ernors, and who come forth to wreak their long harbored vengeance upou community for its fancied wrongs. We arc also opposed to the solitary confinement of criminals, as having the worst possible effect upon them No person can for a great length ol time be so confined without des-true-tion, either partial or total, of reason When one emerges from years in a soli tary cell it is almost always as a mani ac or a driveling imbecile,a punishment that docs the world no good and is a curse to the criminal, which is not the design of tiie law or the agents ot the law. Solitary confinement of the criminal is advocated by the oppo cents of cajiital punishment, which we oppose because of its outrageous bar barity. The opposers of capital p'.n ishmcnt say that confinement for lid in prison has more terrors for the criminal than hanging, therefore the latter is the most humane of the two Granted but what if an innocent per son is so sentenced ? Would it not be more merciful to hang him ? "The death penalty has failed to prevent murder," says the Fcnator, It may be true as to its effect on oth ers, but it cannot be denied that it has prevented the one that has received it, from committing more of them. Society is at least safely rid of all such as thua meet the reward of their crimes. Thus much is certain. '-It is a relic of barbarism," says the seu ator. Then is the Almighty a barba rian, for bo has declared in his Word that "Whoso shedeth man's blood, by man shall bis blood be Hied." We know not what this means if it is not that ho who takes human life shall lose his own as a forfeit. While we do not always square our owu life and actions by the strict letter and spirit of the gospel, we yet have the greatest respect for its statements. We know there is a class of men who are wise far above what is written ; who claim this nineteenth century to be a long ways in advance of any, or all, of its predecessors. In ull such it is a rare condescension that they allow themselves ever to agree with the apostles or the carpenter's radi ant Son. They can explain away the direct assertions of God as easily as they can behcad a chicken. The best way to combat men of this stamp is not to combat them at all. In conclusion, the bill for abolish ing capital punishment, called up by Senator Carpenter, was put upon its third reading, and refused by the de cisive vote of 23 to 6. So hanging will be in force for the next two years and Welcome will have to meet his fate. The Little Corporal Magazine lor December closes the eleventh volume of that brilliant juvenile.

Adjournment of the Slim Legislature. The legislature the slimest body of men that ever met at our State Capital adjourned last Wednesday, in season for thanksgiving. Just as the Russian bear was meditating a grand descent upon Turkey in Europe, our legislators bethought them of tur key in Vermont, and in concert with that " rare and radiant" bird, one and all cried "quit'' "quit," and so they did quit, leaving Montpelier as bare as a bone. This legislature puts us in mind of a rjmark made of Bayard Taylor by Baron Ilumboldt, when asked his opinion of the former, "lie has traveled more and seen less than any man I ever met." The last legislature was after that order, we think. It attempted more and ac complished less than any similar body of men Vermont ever called together. It done a great many things it ought, not to have done, and left undone many things it should have done. One thing it did do, and did well. It changed the names of a great many persons, because that sort of business just suited its capacity. It however kept its own family name em-embly. which was 'verv appropriate." It le galized the gr and lists of about half the towns in the state town bv town but did not pass any general list- r;g law, which it might, could, would or should have done, consequently the appraisal of 1870, which the Free Press says is "the last and worst on record," stands fortwovears more. Of the various interest bills reported. !l were killed. This will doubtless please the majority, and as popularity and votes was the great want of some of those who opposed a higher rate thnii is now allowed, these men prob ably think thev have struck a vast amount of crude petroleum. Six per cent is still the legal rate. What a withering snub to the general govern ment, to our slate also, which pays more for the money it hires ! What a rebuke too, to our banks who invaria bly take more ! How state and nation will wince under the scorn thus cast upon them by all the wisdom and more than the virtue of our noble state ! It also passed bills protecting all the fish ia all the lakes, ponds and streams in our domain. Suckers, horacd chubs, bull pouts, it ais., no more shall fear the itinerant tishermau with pole, and bag and spear. Xo never. Tad poles and pollywogs are still out in the cold, we believe, unprotected. An excuse . ).- calling an extra session '. Take the hint. OMoutpeiicr! "Let us have peace." New Indian Policy. It is said that the new policy inaugurated by Gen. Grant for the control of the va rious Indian tribes is working won ders, both in the matter of ecor.om and the better protection of the.-e troublesome wards of the nation. Tin -aving to the government the first year has been nearly a million of dol lars, while the Indians have been in finitely belter served than formerly. The committee appointed by tin President to see to the purchase ol the lands have attended to their du ties faithfully and without pay. Tin first committee chosen was from anion;.' the Quakers a sect proverbial foi their honesty and kindly feeling, whiU the general policy of the Presidem has been to choose Indian agei.t from among those religious denomina tions who take the greatest pain with the Indians, upou the recommen ditiou of ' tl.eir missionary society's. By this means he has secured a class ol active christian agents in the plaa ot political robbers who have hereto fore been among the Indians for tin purpose of plundering them. These men are the ones that have sown tin seed for the countless Indian massa cres that have from time to time hor rificd the'eouutry. We hope all thai is said of the President's Indian poli cy is true. Should it prove to be so the fact alone will be sufficient to ren der his administration glorious in the anuals of the government. Rough ox Rascals. In Brooklyn on the 22nd inst., Judge Troy sentenc ed Gus. Tristram, a notorious thiol and burglar, to twenty years service in the state prison at Sing Sing, for stealing $300 worth of silver ware. In 1803 Tristram led the gang that robbed the Adams Express of $200,- 000 on the New Haven Railroad, for which exploit he served five years in the Connecticut state prison. If there were more such sentences as that giv en by Judge Troy wc imagine crime would be more at a discount than it appears to be now. One thing is cer tain, criminals would be where they could "do the state some service," in stead of preying upon t9 citizens. The opponents of capital punishment might think differently. Tristram was formerly a man of wealth and good standing, but high living brought him to poverty, and 'prefei ring steal ing to hard work he took up the pro fession of a burglar, got caught, and now must work.

The Rochester Wife Mckdeu. Hie particulars of this case, as given y the Rochester Chronicle, exhibit s -a 1 instance of the wreck which a dis o!ute wife makes of what might oth rwisc be a happy home. The mur derer, David Montgomery, is abou' iwenty-five years old, his wife wa- about eighteen. They had been var ied two years and a half, but had not lived together pleasantly, tiie wife preferring the society of others to that of her husband. He appears to have done what he could to reclaim her, provided a home and the com forts he was able, begged her to stay it home with him and take care ol their child, but all to no purpose. On Saturday he again visited her, in com pany with her uncle and aunt from Lergen, who were here attempting to reconcile them, and they prevailed upon her to accompany him home that night. Earlv on the morning ol Sunday they awoke and began talking. Montgomery desiring her to live a re spectable life and take care of the child, and he would take care of her. She replied. "I am a prostitute and al ways will be one. fcoon after he arose from the bed, went to his fath er's house and procured an axe. and returning stood by the stove fully five minutes, axe in hand, looking at hi? wife; until seemingly driven to mad ness by his thoughts, he raised the weapon and with one blow drove it into her brain. The axe penetrated fully three or four inches, and the blood spouting forth drenched the little child lying beside his mother. He then dropped the bloody instru ment. and, seizing the child, rushed to his father's house, where he left the boy and procured a razor. He then ran across the street to his fath er's barn, and climbing into the loft, attempted to cut his own throat. In this, however, he was prevented by his brother Robert Montgomery, who happened to be in the barn ai the time. David then commenced crying. when Robert carried the razor into nis father's house, and told him what had happened. Subsequently David changed his dress, and, stepping to the bedside of his dying wife, imprint ed a kiss upon her cheek. Ho and his brother then went out, lockiugthe door behind them, and proceeded to the station house, where David sur rendered himself. C. Powers of Danville baa bought the Sweetser place for $896.

McGaffey found one in his money drawer, G. II. fc J. M Weeks one, W. II. McGaffey one and J. C. Welch two. Each man hap pened to remember who ha took them of and described the man. An officer was despatched and the man arrest ed at St. JoliDsbury Centre and brought back at 11 o'clock Tuesday morning. In a conversation witii the prisoner he gives the following story of himself. His name is C. W. Ston- hour. He is 22 years old and his father lives in Middleburv, Ohio. A few months since he came lrom home to Canada, and some four weeks ao wanted to go back, but had not mon ey enough. He then, in company with Lucius Colby, and his cousin, George Colby, took the job to glaze the windows for the Baptist Seminary at Lyndon Centre. He claims that this money was paid to him on a debt in Canada some three weeks ago, and fhat he did not know it was counter ieit. yja Sat-iruay last in company wita Lucius Colby, be went to St. Johosbury Centre to stay where he could get boarded cheap till he could hear from a publishing house in rela tion to a book agency he had appli ed lor. Un Monday they came to uvndon and stopped at the hotel. In the evening they bo't 10 cents worth of tripa at the grocery and paid one of these $2 bills, and afterwards went in again and bought some tobacco, At McGaffey 's store Stonhour-botight 10 cents worth of tobaccp, and 10 cents worth at Weeks' iu each case paying one of these bills. Tuesday morning they left on the train and tho bills having been discovered ia season an oflicer took the same train and arrested Stonhour at the Cenlre Village. J. C. Welch who accom pained the officer did not know at the time that Colby was m the scrape. and though he was on the train he was unmolested. A dispatch, how I ever, was eent to Wells River to . in tercept him but lie took the pre caution to get off before the cars reached there. When arrested Ston hour had about $30 on bis person, several of these two's being in a pocket by themselves and hi3 good money in another pocket. He was examined before Justice Mattocks on Tuesday afternoon and in default of $2000 bail was committed to jail. Stonhour says Colby is from .Water- bury, Vt. He lived in Wheelock some three years ago. Later. A dispatch from White River Junction at 3 o'clock states .that Colby was arrested there on the noon train. Union. Here is a story of the way in which a Vermont girl regained her health and made. money : ''A farmer's daughter in delicate health, living on the Vermont side of the Connecticut river, took charge of twelve hens in February, 1807. Part of the hens vere set with turkey's eggs. The flock of chickens and tur keys was quite numerous and well fattened by Thanksgiving. Several eggs were used in the family during the first year, and seven turkeys (the best ones) given away at Thanksgiv ing. Much the same liberality was used each year. The total cash re ceived for e.igs and poultry during th'e three yeais was three hundred and thirty-four dollars and fifty cents. The cost of keeping was fully met by the eggs used in the family ; so the above amou;it is clear profit. Ia ad dition' to this the invalid is much im proved in lealtli. The food for the lowls was mainly corn and cob meal, given warm i:i cold weather; boiled potatoes and hog-scraps, an excellent addition give,, occasionally. Few know the real profit of keeping hens. So many think they don't pay that Ut ile care is given them. Let them have good comfortable quarters and ibod properly prepared aud they are the most profitable investment a far mer can make, requiring so little cap it aj. A. Y. Independent. The St. Albans Messenger thus ;;etes the sale of what it calls "gilt edged" butter: Mr. C. II.

About half past four Fridav p. ni., as Mrs. James P. Place, accompanied by a Mrs. Wells from Massachusetts, were driving around the corner -of Fairfield and Church Streets, St Al bans, the horse slipped, overturned the carriage and threw them violent ly to the ground. Mrs. Wells escaped with only a cut on her forehead and a few bruis es, but Mrs. Place, we are sorry to know, was struck insensible and fatal ly injured. In falling, her forehead struck with such violence upon the ground a3 to cause concussion of the braint though her skull was not frac tured, and this was followed by an effusion of blood, which kept her in a comatose and wholly insensible con dition until her death which occur red on the following day at half past one. Drs. Fassett, Clark and Wood ward considered the case fatal, but of course, resorted to every known mean3 of science to restore her while anxious neighbors and friends did all that, they could do.

Russia is in earnest. She does not intend to content herself with the mere abrogation of that part of the treaty of Paris which interferes with her keeping a fleet in the Black Sea. She means to send the Grand Turk out of Europe, and has evidently made up her mind to improve the present unequalled opportunity. Turkey, on her side, also made up her mind weeks ago that war was cer tain. Austria, too, shows no sign of shrinking from the contest. The on ly doubt is about England. There the peace party are very strong, and if they could have their way the Govern ment would make every sacrifice rath er than go to war. The probability, however, is that the British people will not consent to such humiliation. They will fight, and the Government that shows the white feather will be turned out of office. In such a war the sympathies of the United States will probably be on ihe.side of Russia, and for obvious reasons. We cherish a reRgious prej udice against the Turks, and have an old score to settle with England. As soon as the war is fairly a going, the ocean will swarm with privateers es caped from American ports, iu spite of all the obstacles that Don Hamil ton Fish may interpose. They will proceed upon the principles of inter national law recognized an! main tained by England in the case of the Alabama. It will not be the fortune of each of them to do as much dam age to England as the Alabama did to the United States ; but, upou the whole, John Bull will probably have to drink about as deep of thecup of puuishment as he deserves. At the same time, the commercial marine of the United States will be started again by the chance which the war will offer us of taking our share once more in the carrying trade of the world. N'. 1".

A S'riking illustration of this fact was witnessed in a car on the Harlem Railroad the other day, where a mar ried couple, who manifestly held to the most advanced theories in regard to the equality of the sexes, attract ed no little attention by their practi cal exemplification of their belief. Tiie lady, who was of stern and de termined aspect, was giving her un divided attention to the perusal of a copy of the Revolution, while her meek-looking husband took the entir; charge of an active and somewhat troublesome infant. During the tri., circumstances rendered in necessary to make a partial change of the ba by's wardrobe, whereupon the father produced from a satchel the neces sary article of infantile wear, and. to the infinite amusement of his fellow passengers, and especially to the un-disgui-ed delight of the ladies who observed his movements, proceeded to prove himself adequate to the emergency, with an adroitness and skill that plainly, indicated careful and long-contiuui d practice. Truly, the "world does move. Atrocious Depkavity. Frederick Miller and his wife were arrested in Jersey City last week, charged with having wrought the ruin of a number of young girls. They keep a low den in that place, into which they entice young girls, and after keeping them for a time, transfer them to the bagn ios of New York, receiving a fixed price for each one. Five girls who had been thus enticed were brought as witnesses. It is estimated that within a year the Millers have accom plished the ruin of 50 girls who had previously led virtuous lives. Louise Beunecker, a courtesan from New York, was also arrested on a charge ot having been engaged with the?e wretches in their nefarious work. New York City consumes four ' kegs of lager beer to one barrel ol flour. To every dollar spent for meat, two go for liquor. Result: there have been 06,880 arrested for disorderly conduct and drunkenness during the past year, and the Com missioners of Public Charities have under their care 92,272 hopeless, homeless wards. The NiCW York board of education has defeated, by a vote of eight to one, a proposition to discontinue the teaching of French and German in the public schools. Upward of twenty young women are studying theology in the United States, with the view of becoming preachers. A Man Hangs Himself Because His Wife Refused toC'ook Muttox fob Sup per. Joseph Brousseau, a French Canadi an, aged 55, came home on Saturday night about '.) 1-2 o'clock, bringing with him a leg of mutton, a portion of which he asked his wife to cook for his supjer. She refused, saying that the tire was out, but added that tea, with bread aud but ter, was at his disposal. The reception seemed to affect him badly, and he mut- terea wonts wnicn were soon verinea in a terribly tragic manner. '-I'll eat no more of your food," said he, as he prepar ed for bed. He said his prayers and lay down, his wife shortly after joining him. Mrs. Brousseau states that she awoke about 4 o'clock in the morning and was startled at finding herself alone in the room. She went to the kitchen, which leads off from the bedroom, and found the door obstructed. Becoming alarmed, she searched the bedroom and passages, but seeing no signs of her husband, returned to the kitchen door, and forcing it with all her might managed to squeeze herself in. Imagine the poor woman s terror at finding the obstruction was neither more nor less than the dead body of her hus band which hung by the neck to a small hook close to the door. She raised an alarm, the neighbors ran in, and the body was cut down, Dut lite was extinct. Ot tawa Evening Star. Clubbing with the Standard; THE HOUSEHOLD.

Jacks.iiiviiie, Hihenua, tircen Cove, an many other place in various parts of Florida can bo sate iy "recom mended to conumpuves in winter. My reasons for Kay iiv o are. that patunU arc le3 liable to take coid there than where there is a les -ven temperature: and it is not necessary to say, that, where a consumptive person exposes himself to frequent colds he is certain t die shortly : then tore mv advice i. po well down into the State, out of the reach of prevailing eat winds and foe-. Jacksou isie, or almost any oilier ot the localities I have named, w ill benefit those who are troubled with a torpid liver, a disordered stomach, deranged bowds, sure throat, or couch ; but, fur those w hoe luns are diseased, a more soinhern point is earnestly recommended. For fifteen vears nrior to lb9. 1 was nrofesstemallv in w Yt ik. lloton, Baltimore, and l'hiiadelphia tWry week, where I saw and examined on an average five hundred patients a week. A practice ro extensile, em bracing eery possible phase of lung disease, hasenabled me to understand the disease fully ; and hence my caution in retard to taking cold. A per-n mav take vast quanti ties of " Schenck's l'ulmon.c Syrup. Seaweed Tonic, and Mandrake Tills," and yet die if be does not avoid taking coid. In Florida, nearly everybody is nsinp fichenck's Man drake l'ills; lor the climate is more likely to produce bilious habits than more northern latitudes. It is a well established fart, that natives of Florida rarely die of con sumption, especially those of the southern part. On the other hand, in New tnland, one-third at least of tho population die of this terrible disease. In the Middle States, it does not prevail so lartrely ; still there are many thousands of cases there. What a vast percentage of life would bo saved if consumptives were as easily alarm ed in regard to taking tVe?li colds as they are about scar let fever, small-pox, Ac. 1 but they are not: thev take w hat they term a little cold, which they are credulous enough to believe will wear off in a few days. They pay no attention to it; and hence it lays the foundation for another find another still, um.il the lungs are diseased be yond all hope of cure. My advice to persona whose lung are affected, even slight lv, is to lay in a stock cf Sehenek's Pulmonic Svrup, fSchenck's Seaweed Tonic, and Sehenek's Mandrake Vilis, and go to Florida. I rec mimend these particular medi cines, because 1 am thoroughly acquainted with their action. 1 know, that, where they are used in strict ac cordance with my directions, tiiey will do the work that is required. This accomplished, nature will do the rest. The physician who prescribes for cold, couj.h, tr night sweatsand then advises the patient to walk or ride out every day, will be sure to have a corpse on his hands before long. Mvplan is, to give my three medicines in accordance with the printed directions, except in some cases whero a freer use of the Mandrake IMUsis necessary. My object is. to give tone to the stomach. to get up a good appe tite. It is always a good sign when a patient be tons to prowhungrv: I have hopes of such. With a relish for food, and the gratification of that relish, comes good Mood, and with it more flesh, which is closely followed bv a healinpof the luncs. then the couth loosens and abates, the creeping chills and clammy niht sweats no longer prostrate ana annoy, ana tne pauent gets well. means to go to Florida. The question may be asked, ia there no hope for such ? Certainly there is. M y advice ow. there are many consumptives who have not the tosucu is, umu ever nas ueen, to stay in a warm room during the winter, w ith a temperature of about aeventv degrees, which bhould be kept regulariy at that point by means of a thermometer. Let such a patient take hi exercise within the limits of the room bv walking up ami down as much as his strength will permit, in order to Keep up a licaituy circulation ot the bioou. 1 have curea thousands bv this system, and can do so a train. Con sumption is as easily cured as any other disease. If it ia taken in time, ana uie proper Kina oi treatment is pur sued. 'Ihe fact stands undisputed on record, that ihenek s Pulmonic hyrun, Aland rake rills, and sea weed Tonic have cured very many of what seemed to bo hopeless cases of consumption. Go where you will, you w ill be almost certain to find some Door consumptive. who has been rescued from the very jaws of death by their u?e. So far as the Mandrake Tills are concerned, everybody should keep a supply of them on hand. They act on the liver better than calomel, and leave none of its hurtful effects behind. Iu fact, they are excellent in all cases where a purgative medicine is required. If you have partaken too freely of fruit, and diarrhoea ensues, a dose, of the Mandrakes will cure yon. If you are subject to tick headache, take a dose of the Mandrakes, and they will relieve you in two hours. If you would obviate tho effect of a chance of water, or the too free indui?enrf in fruit, take one. of the Mandrakes every night, and you may then dnnfc water, and eat water melvns. pears, ap ples, plums, peaches, or corn, without the risk of being made sick by them. '1 hey w ill protect those w ho live in damp situations against chills and fevers. 1 rv them- They are perfectly harmless. They can do you good only.

But I desire it dwtinctly un derstood, that the value of my medicines depends entire ly upon uieir oeing tan en strictly according to directions.
