BT JOHNSDUnY, Arnili 7, 1870' TI10 extent ol'damngo caused by the Wor cester catastropho last week is estimated at 81,000,000. Though much distress results, no lives wcro sacrificed, all thoso living in the water's track, having been duly named of tho threatened disaster. A thorough in vestigation as to tho condition of tho rcscr voir before the flood will bo mado and tho responsibility bo properly placed. - - A certain clergyman in the western part of tho stito, being annoyed by incessant buz zings, flirtations and "what uots," in the choir, bethought himself of a most happy and effective remedy. After reading tho second hymn, he said : "There will bo a pause im mediately alter singing for tho transaction of nil necessary business.'' The effect was mag ical and each singer seemed for a few mo ments to bo "posing" for a photograph. Tho f'ricks and caprices of democratio re trenchment aro forcibly cmphasizod by tho recent action by tho Appropriation Committee, with reforenco to tho supply of fuel, gas and water in tho post offico depart ment. Bcciujo tho sum appropriated by congress has been exhausted, the prinoipal post ofliccs aro to bo closed hereafter at sun set, and water and gas shut off. This scums superlatively weak both in a legislative and partisan sense. - llailroad fare and tho dead head question aro said to havo carried distraction into tho councils of the managers of the exhibition . Hy excluding all freo tickets it is thought tho price of admission might bo reduced from fifty to twenty-five cents. Many of tho railroads leading toward Philadelphia havo a lop ted a rato only 25 par cent off tho ordi nary fare. In view ol the courtesy usually extended to cattle shows, horse trots, picnics, etc., and of tho immense umount of travel to bo occasioned by the great festival, this stingy reduction looks more liko extortion than con cession, and has evoked loud complaint in many parts of the country. People had said, "Too late, she cannot enter now" and "Tho man who doubts is lost." But notwithstanding that Governor Peck has doubted Vermont has not last her golden chanco at the centennial. That deli cate senso of official responsibility may belong to tho ideal magistrate but his apparent knowl edge of architecture is extremely aorial. Could the structuro leap into boing in tho twiukling of an eye as by fiat, there were Honio excuse lor tho gubernatorial vacillation. But at a late hour Mr. Sprague has reversed his decision and the edifice that will cose tho state nothing except the care of it, will he speedily erected. This parliamentary wranclinsr to decido "what's in a namo" appears to n nation of democratio instincts like "much ado about nothing." Should tho royal titlo bill be como a law, her majesty will read thus : "Victoria by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland Ouecn, Defender of tho Faith and Kmnress of India." Hut lest India should seem to usurp all tho titular glory of tho British Possessions other epithets like "Oliieftaineas ol Canada," "Cacique of the Antilles," etc., havo been aptly suggested. The cvidont de sign of the titlo is to develop in tho Hindoo breast a lovo for English royalty, to bo used in a possiblo clash with Itussia. Tho annual c.italoguo of the university of Vermont and stato agricultural college for lS7i) 70 shows an aggregate attendance of 103 students in all the departments. Tho freshman and sophomore classes number l!f and '27 respectively, while the medical class has U2 members. It is often a rourco of comment that this college with its superior facilities for academic and scientific instruc tion is not more numerously attended. Now wo know that any young man, free from bias after examining its record and its advantages would not blush to see his own name enrolled upon the list of undergraduates or alumni, Possibly, too, the fact is not duly appreciated that at this college young women may share tho samo opportunities of culture with the harsher sex. Ho wroto of tho convention, "Captured by Bummers," and saw and was told that it was good. But howover trenchant tho philip pie, it came, like many other noble accents, too late. If tho "bhoyt" clcctod their president at tho convention and "slipped in" Mr. Wood bridgo as a dclegato at large, thoy simply shewed themselves tho better "TalVicians, Whoa a man drops into tho arena his tooth. picks oro not going to prevail against Bwords. Watch your chances, ambush yourself if necojsary, head off tho "bummors," and don't snap your lash of sarcasm on tho empty air, when tho game is miles beyond your reach, If politics is a game, don't grumble at the hand dealt you, but try and shuffle out some "points" for yourself. Post mortem rhetoric seldom won a victory. Whilo you aro bewailing tho ubiquity of corruption, keeping posted on tbo Brooklyn developments and preparing for tho ccntcn nial, do not forget the noblo red man whose word for truth is always honored at sight Another contury and the race of Bitting Bulls and Spotted Tails may have been exterminated, and no more Del anos or Bclkoaps needed to minis tor to their wants. Wo novor know whether it was providonco or tho necessities of Cau casiau civilization that deprived Hiawatha of his hunting grounds. But now that tho remnant of this intractablo race is between two mill-stones of a superior nation, the one on tho cast and tho other on tho west, why would it not bo instructive to havo an In dian booth at tho great fair 7 Tho pap ooso, tho "saint" scalp, tho wigwam uud war trumpery, though historical to us, might possess a romantic) interest for other nations, Hardly bad humanity iutefcrod to abolish tho death penalty in Maine before there camo the details of a most shocking murder at Chelsea in that stato. It is the old story of Othello sacrificing a frail and iuuocont wile to tho mad passion of a groundless jeab ousy. Tho tradgoy seems to havo beon uu premeditated as the murderer Immediately attempted hisowndcstruotiou. Tho prevail- ing opinion is tbat Pago was partially do. ranged which will probably bo his legal defence. But whilo the frightful crlino hbows bow a fostered suspicion may burst into a very flood of passion, it i'uruwbc a serious text to those who would rcmovo our only practical safeguard to human life. Nothing less than a standing morlijago on the neck of ovcry possible murderer of tho Page typo (tho BOnlenood and tho unscn tenced) can protect socioty at all against tho fury of certain passions, that savor moro of hell than earth. Jct not this stato allow tho healthy sentiment of duty to tho living and justice- to tho dead, to relax into that sickly and delusivo sensibility that prevails in certain western legislatures. Somo men would never know what law is much less its majesty without tho repeated empha sis of a stern Inflexible penalty. Tho following is congenial to the spirit of the hour : Mr. Loncfollow is spoken of for minister to Kngland in tho event of Dana's rejection.

Tho appctito for investigation has attained so voracious a pitch that tho guilty and tho in nocent nliko seem tho tributo" of its hungry jaws.

An imputation of crooked behavior even against tho civilian John Mor isser migRt gain credence. Are all our old monuments of muscular virtue and piety to bo ruthlessly swept away 7 Wcro it not for tho great scandals, politi cal and social, presidential thoughts and preparation for the centennial, the most pop ular themo would doubtless bo Moody and his revival methods. This earnest man has already becomo a great fact of history. In England ho accomplished what never before had been achieved the conversion of thou sands of persons with the simplest truths, Other great evangelists havo generally found somo new dootrino or "departuro" to bo their chief attraction. Mr. Moody takes tho old premises of orthodox faith, and by tho won drous energy and spirit with which ho vivi fics them, literally awakens a whole nation. His eloquence is his own, able to move alike tho critical and tho simple. Night after night, and day after day, the hippodromo has been thronged with audiences eager to place themselves under his masterly control. It is impertinent to ask whether tho results will bo permanent. Neither he nor any man can work out an individual piety for another. That the man is purely unselfish is univcr sally conceded. He seems, rather, to bo the voice of some grand thought that inspires him. He is to religion what Gough has beon to temperance, and before ono condemns from reading let him judge from hearing Any man, however limited his culture, who can invest with life and blood themes that have seemed to thousands liko inarrowlcsg bones, amply deserves tho title of elequent, be his methods ever so simple. His splendid success and his thoroughly unselfish spirit havo shielded tho great evangelist agaiust the ridicule and suspicion frequently mouthed against revival preachers. Hope Deferred JIakcth tho Heart Sick. Ever since tho crash of 1873, many have been predicting and all hoping for, a revival of business. Tho period fixed for an emer gence from this depression iuto a new and permanent activity has first been fall and then spring till now tho great focal point where hopo and reliance center is the "Ccn tcnmal." But what is this revival of busi ness that so many clamor for? In nine cases out of ten tho restoring of high prices and increasing values with tho atten daut opportunities for reckless speculation. In other words tho people ask for the very conditions by which tho panio was precipi tatcd. Men aro beginning to learn the valuo of a dollar, and as we slowly approach resumption and a stablo basis for tho traus action of all kiuds of business, tho facilities for wild enterprise and prodigal expenditure aro happily being reduced. Tradesmen might learn tho lesson from the recurring failures of merchants that so much can they sell and co more. Tho laws of business howover intricate and complex they may appear, aro imperial ami. tho soomr one be gins to oboy them, the sooner ho inaugurates his prosperity. Evm tho farmer must adopt tho "new departure." Tis a horry fact that the value of his products has kept do dining but from that fact lie shall learn that wido margins and mounting prices aro of other days. It is by no means happy niu sie to work by but music nevertheless that must be faced. To thoso who read aright the "signs of tho times" it is ovident that wealth as before tho war, is to bocomo again tho aggregate of steady accumulation and not an immedi ate avalancho of luck. All those hopes of a "bold strike" or of a sudden bonanza, need to be punctured and a legitimate business adopted. Even tho keen Daniel Drow, that Janus of religion and mammon, after a splendid scries of wrestles with fortune has yicldod at last to tho inevitable and gone by tho board. But a few Drews, b'iskes, Goulds and Vandcrbilts will always bo pos sihlo ; it is tho smaller parasites of legitimate industry that tho country would shako off. Tho bankruptcies of every day represent no destruction of proporty perhaps uo iucroas. ing business depression. Thoy indicato rather tho suro penalties of excess of exnetb dituro over production and tho emphasis of the law that in all departments of business tho supply must conform to tho demand. Now until wo do havo u substantial invar! oblo currcnoy, which will tend to a uniform ity of prices and, thercforo, to expel from tho ranks of trado at least GO per cent of tho uonproduccrs, a general activity of business cannot bo expected. Tho centennial will bo as ineffectual tn promote a return to hoalthy business principles us a brazen imago to pro. tcet the garrison of a city without fort or walls. We can look toward it but it will not teach us tho ocooomy and legitimate in dustry wo are bouud to adopt. THE VERMONT EARMER : AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. Tbo country at present feeli also the general distrust, incident to a change of administration. This perhaps is advantage ous as prolonging tho probation during which ideas and habits of economy and productive employment may havo tirao to solidify. Frauds in Trade. Few know and fewer, knowing, roalizo tho number and the extent of tho frauds and Impositions of which thoy are daily tho dupes. Whilo wo inquire, "who is honest 7" one might in tho samo breath ask "what is hon est?" Tho very soul of trade seems to be to clip and shave, to alloy and adulterato in every conccivablo way that can thwart de tection. If any article or commodity looks like, tastes like, smells or feels liko the gen uine, there aro always tho simplo and the unsuspecting to tako it. And the fact that swindlers can still nfford to advertise indi cates that tbo'r constituency of fools is far from being extinct. Thero is hardly an ar ticle of commerce that might not reveal in many cases somo wcll-cxccutcd "trick" ci ther in unscriptual measuro or spurious In gredient. Do uot be deceived. When a merchant flaunts before you tho brave adver tiscmcnt, "wo defy analysis," he gracefully says that you without tho means of analysis aro as powerless to detect his "fiction" as a nursing babe. Tho happy formula for mix ing tho cheap with tho costly, the wholesome with tho poisouous, has been discovered, and ho knows full woll that tho five senses aro not tho test-tubes to rcsolvo bis eompound. To attempt to sum up the frauds of trado would be liko counting the stars of heaven of which the seen aro but an inkling of thounseon. A few instances will servo to illnminato tho subject. It is known that brown paper goos every week by cargoes to Cuba, where, after absorbiug the juico of tobacco steins, it is wrought by a process of "fiuo art" into tho "pure Havana," whose fumes induco that dreamy and poetic frame ot mind. That uine-tcnlhs of all tho port wino used for medicinal purposes, because pure, is pressed from the grapes of logwood, neods no proof. Would thero have been a Baechus among the ancient deities, had such a vilo potation been drunk by the Greeks? And if Charles Lamb iu his generation called whiskey "wt dam nation," how could ho hopo to vilify aright the decoctions sold in the Americau saloons of to-day? Tel is another articlo of con sumption over which there hang many mys. tcries of trade. Tho peculiar aroma of tho celestial leaf is as often tho product of art aul poison as of nature. ' If candy could only scparato itself iuto its elements before ones eyes, the alarm given by eight would certainly save the stomach though it cheated the taste. Sirup, sugar, flour, ground spi ces anything, in fact, capable of adultera tion enshroud mauy a secret for tho chem ist to expose. As for the herbs, drugs and compounds known as "patent," uo lau guage, it is believed, is adequato to speak their pcrmciousnc8S. It were well both for his stomach and his exchequer if every consumer could havo a littlo laboratory of his own whero he might try of what sort each substanoo is. Thus a kind of conscience, tho offspring of policy, might be instilled into tho uuscupulous mer chant. It requires faith equal to a hundred grains of tho seed to liclieve that the contents of a box of mustard are neither deficient in weight nor spurious in quality. Evon salt, tho symbol of preservation, is sold, long after its savor is gone. Ho was a shrewd observer who said he would not trust tho apostle Paul to moas, uro his grain. But tho remark, though a little "tart," suggests a principle underlying more than half of all tho business done. It is simply suicidal to any farmer's intcrosts not toown a set of scales to verify tho weight of every article so bought. Commercial con science, wo aro all well aware, is somowhat intermittent, throbbing with greatest eucrgy when tho trick has been detected. Tho prompt and courteous salesman whose Taco is radiant with good-will, docs not scruple to shrink a pound of tea with his coarse paper. True, a trivial matter to you, but quito a lucrative one for him in tho aggregate. We aro constantly reminded that this is the centennial year, when the essential fea tures of American civilization shall bo judged by the world's tribunals. Will tho whole truth bo known, and shall what seems fair and gcuuino without bo opcuod, analyzed and exhibited in component parts? If tho expo sition is to bo a incro assortment of tinseled appearances, littlo will be known of tho in ward naturo of Americau products. But thcu another lino of articles than those passed over counters may bo expected to go to Phil adelphia, and all thoso heinous machines and processes that vitiate tho pure and wholo somo will, in all likelihood, remain in dingy vaults and collars away from light and sight. Briefly summarized some of the recent un important political fact aro these : Schcnck explaining his diplomatic demeanor to an in vestigating committee; Dana's nomination rejected by men averso to his appointment ; New cvideuoo by a dctectivo Bell, prej udicial to Babcock j Fourteen volumes of testimony in Itobcsou's caso without tho wanted cvidenco to convict him ; Tho formal impoachmcnt of Belknap ; Six stato conventions held and delegates elected as follows : Maine and Virginia pledged to Blaine, Vermont uninstructcd but with lllaino proclivities, Ohio, Hayes, Now York, Conk ling, and Pennsylvania for Gov. Hartranftj Alleged irregularity of conduot on the part of Attornoy General Piorrepont; Passago in the house of tho silver coinago bill making silver legal tender in sums of 825 and $f0 j Butler preparing for a canvass of his district ; Tho forger Wins- low still detainod iu England ; -Decrcaso of public debt during March 8 l,2IO,0(if) ; Ingersoll rcolcctod governor of Connec ticut by about HfiOO majority over republi can, prohibition nnd greenback candidates. Though aptly quoted, tho following from tho Boston Journal sheds no light on the subjoct : Tho night oomcth when no man cau work in tho public secvioe, Text for tho democratio house they pre fer darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil, Tho country shopkeeper said, "Here my fricud, thoso balls of butter I bought of you last week all proved to bo just thrco ounces short of a pound." And the farmer iuuo eontly answered, "Woll 1 ijou't see how that eould be for I used one of your pound bars of soap for a weight." LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. Education for Farmer' Families. Thero seems to bo a good deal said of lato in tho public journals about educational matters. All seem agreed in relation to tho great need, that is, an education that shall, in reality, minister to tho futuro wants and nccissitlcs of tho pupil. Now that every body is agreed about tho want, let us stop talking about that part of the matter, and movq on to tho next business in order, and that is of supplying the want. I don't be- hovo professional men aro going much out of their way to help the farmer in this matter. Tho farmers must help thomselvos. What is tho reason why a school cannot bo heavily endowed and sustained hero in tho Connecti cut river valloy, located as it Is right in tho heart of tho best agricultural community in New England? Let us build up hero a school that shall mako men and women of our boys and girls. First of nil, let it be taught that tho first groat duty of humanity is to cam its own living, nnd to make, or bo ablo to make, its own living from off the bosom of mother earth. Let cvory boy bo able to mako tho proud declaration that he lives by tho sweat of no other man's brow. Let him bo taught to fill the gap that was oponcd up for him when God in his goodness and mercy breathed tho breath of life into his nostrils. Let him ask uo man to bear any of life's burdens for him. Lil theso first elementary principles of manhood and wo manhood bo drilled into our boys and girls, and tho wild schemes of tho enemy cannot prevail against them. Tho great curse of very many institutions of learning in our country is this, they aim to teach how their pupils can best dodge tho many groat re sponsibilities of life. "Como and eat of tho bread wo can give you, and you may never- moro have to bear the burdens iu tho heat of tho day, but leave it for other men to do." I am awaro that this is a very grave charge, but I do say tho chargo cannot bo success fully denied. A school that docs not always keep the first great principles of a glorious manhood at tho very front, uiakts slaves of one class of our people and a bigoted, conceited aris tocracy of another class. Tho ono great thought in the school of tho farm must be, "Let every man boar his own burden." Let there be no saddling of a great part of any ouo's burden upon another, because he or she happens to be smart. Let them rather assume a part of tho burden of their fellow men who chance to be weak. This drivingaud coaxing so many of our young men iuto what they seem pleased to call the gentlemanly aul polite professions, and then paying them for their al most fruitless labor ten dollars whero they don't cam one tho very thought is enough to demoralize a natiou, and this very idea is what is leveling tho ancient landmarks among our people U this time. A school where everything' that is or cau bo known of scienco as applied to agriculture can be practically taught. A school where everything that there is or cau bo known how best to prepare all of tho great variety of tho products of the farm for tho table i: taught, ought at once to rcccivo llio pat ror.age of every farmer within its reach. Let farmers como to tho front and take hold of this matter at once, and save a manhood and womanhood to their boys and girls that shall bo their crowning glory. C. Haverhill, N. .. March The English Language. So important and influential has tho En glish language becomo among .ill thccivil ized nations of tho earth, that wo may well be proud to call it our mother tongue. More than sixty million persons now speak it as their own vernacular. Go where you will, in every business mart of tho world, iu Eu rope, in Asia, and even in benighted Africa, upou tho ships that course the sea, and wo shall still bo cheered by tho sweet sounds of our own beloved tongue. Its influence is widening with each succeeding year, and we firmly belicvo that tho day is not far distant when it will bo recognized by common con sent, liko tho old Latin language, as tho universal medium of thought iu all national and official relations. We ought, therefore, to bo acquainted with it in mere than a gen eral sense ; we ought to know something of its origin, its history, its composition, its in herent power and beauty. .No ono rests satisfied with simply learning the namo of a friend, but is interested in bis antecedents and relations to others. And should we not feel a deep interest to learn of our owu lan guage the first that we lisp at our mother's knee, and tho last wo utter with our expir ing breath ? The English language is young ; none of any importance being younger, fur it is scarcely yet six hundred years old. Seven hundred years ago no human being spoke our present language. Tho history ef lan guage, as such, goes far back and is lost in tho dim vista of ages, but there aro two principal beliefs entertained as to its origin. First, that man is ablo and actually did originate his own language, there being vari ous suppositions as to the exact mode of do ing it. Second, tho more scriptual, and, perhaps, tho more generally received belief, that man is utterly unable to crcato a'lau guage for himself, and that it was a gift directly from tho Deity. For, says tho Record, "Whatsoever Adam called every lis, ing crcaturo, that was tho name thereof." Powerful thinkers aro on both sides of this question, and wo leave tho reader to incline to his own belief. Fortunatoly, our good Euglish is so young, wo are ablo to learn pretty easily and aoourately of its origin and development. Tho groundwork is Anglo-Saxon with rich treasures from the Latin, Greek and Fronch languages, and n few isolated words from various other sources. It will be observed that homo, father, mother, bread, love, and kindred words nro Anglo-Saxon, nnd theso aro the most important and radical, and such as children first learn from parental lips. Of every ono hundred words of ours, it Is citimatod that sixty aro Anglo-Saxon, thirty Latin, fivo Greek, and tho remaining fivo from other source?. If it is asked, whenco camo tho Anglo-Saxon language, the answer is, from tho far cast, from a placo now called Iran in India, Beyond this, we have no light. L. W. Pkkt.
