But the wonderful part of the story remains to be told.

An old bachelor in Orleans coun ty has been deterred from commit ting matrimony iu the followinc novel way : Thinking over the subject seriously and particularly the expense of mainting a family, he set tho table in his lonely auocio with pmtes for himself and an inagnmry wife and five children.

The result of his examination wag so discouraeiuz that he resolved not to marry : but why should he think he was to have so large a family to provide for, we cannot explain. He should have remembered the old aphorism : jNover count your chickens be fore they are hatched." Rutland, Vt., Feb. 23. The liquor raid was resumed here tos day. The establishments of S. J. Loop, J. & T. Caden, Faunee's Ho tel and A. F. Davis' feed store, were visited, but no liquor found. The result of the day's work was six barrels taken at the depot.

The excitement ran high at one time and fears were eutertaiued for the remilt, but the mob wore dispersed alter a brief speech from Deputy ."Sheriff Jsamiersou. Tho proceed ings of the mob were disgraceful and aroused much indignation. Several ot tlio leading citizens have given a bond to indemnify the otli cei'8, and it is understood the raid will be resumed to-morrow.

ABVKR'l'ISKMKitT. To Whom it mat concern In Orange County Vt., and Grafton County X. if. On account of the many pcrsis tent, abase, conspirited, scandalous reports, prior, aud during the uns dersigncd absence to the Pacific Coast, doubtless des'gned not only ior tho miury of my reputation, but to obtain that which honest iudusi try may have accomplished. It an parently becomes utv duty to make known to the people of said counties that tho more recent reports eon nccting me with one alleged Mann ol some town in Grafton county not known to me) are equally false iu tvery allegation as all former ones covering a space ot ntteen years, which I trust have each respective. ly beyond the shaddow of a doubt proved to bo abusive conspirited faliciea. Therefore in order that the late reports could iu anywise be re ferable to my past life, it would have been absolutely nesessary for the laws of nature to have been super- seeded by that of spontaneous com bustion. Two married men (the names of which I defer to mention) have beeu represented as witnesses against me Uhallcng tucui to produce any truthful evidence against me. Tho late report also conveys the Idea of fraud and dishonesty of which I have to say I have done business iu the four terrestial ex tremes of tho United States and can say with all consience that 1 have paid or satisfied cheerfully every just claim against me. A worn more : un account or tue wilfull depravity of human nature, an evil report tates tno swncesi wiiiss and ienetrates the minutest corners, while a good report becomes a burthen to the traveler and is lelt by the way-side. Therefore the scan dalor (even should it be his desire) an never retrace his steps to plant by tho way the rose where stands the thorn. It. M. Chalmers. Newbury, Vt., Feb. 20, 1874.
