Dixe in Vxruont Some twenty deer are to be turne 1 out on the mountains in the vicinity of Rutlanl a soon as the snow is gone. If the effort of the Rutland gen tlemen engaged in th;s work prove success ful it will Lot Le many years before deer will bj plenty once more in this State. They would probably never have been ex terminated here if they had not been mur dered oat of t-eason in their yard. The Delaware and Ilud-on Canal Company and the Central Vermont Railroad Company aid this enterprise ly transporting the deer over the r roals lies. As fine afpecimenof I lie taxidermist's iik ill as has ever come under our notice is now to be ctn in E. W. Peck & Co.'s office window. It consists of a group of six partridges anl a ftrosbcak, standing on a tree thickly laden with bitter-sweet berries. The attitudes are as natural and unconstrained as life ; too mounting is exceedingly well doie, and the whole affair is unusually ban j-ome and true to nature. The birds were ruount-d by Mr. Henry A. Brush, vt Milton ; aad the group i a present from Mr. II. G.

Mr. Thompson, until the time be went West, had always lived near Mtdletta Bay, bat four j ears unco he went to Colorado, where he ha 1 teen engaged ia miniog up to the time of hli death. It necms he was in th ''Coid Spiing" mine at work 375 feet below the furface, with a companion. This mine is only twenty feet from another mine, and the latter was filled with water. The partition giving away, the mine con taining Thompson and bis associate was filled with oyer 100 feet of water. The en giaeer ftrt discovered this cn going down to find out why they did not answer bis Ignal, and when be was within 100 feet of the bottom he came to the water and then for the first timo the terrible truth flashed Bpoa him. Rutland Railroad Taxes. The effect of the receat decision of the Supreme Court in regard to the payment of the taxes on tbe Rutland railroad is that tbe Central Ver mont managers pay the taxes kyally assessed upon the Addison, the Vermont Valley and the Vermont and Massachusetts branch railroads and the Rutland railroad pays the taxc1 legally assessed upon its own property. The taxes on the Rutland rail road property amount to from ten to fifteen thousand dollars annually, and there are taxes for three years unpaid. Vet Bolton Curious Circumstance. As workmen were cutting and drawing oat logs for . N- Colton, on the Cth of Febru ary, on a flat piece of timber land on tho top of tie mountain that divides the head waters of tbe so-called mill brook and Lee river, on felling a spruce tree, three young birds with pin feathers just starting, prob aVy about eight or ten days old, fell from their nest, some thirty or forty feet from tbe ground. They were taken and cared for. but their fall proved too much for them. The parent birds were nearly as large as tho common blue hirds , ths female was of a grayish color ; and tho male bird hai a reddish brcat. with dark wings. The question naturally arises. Have we migratory birds that visit us and breed and rear their young in Winter ? Episcopal Convocation. The Convoca tion of Burlington met in St. Paul's church on Wednesday, February fith, and a very able and instructive discourse was preached by Rav. Walter Mitchel, Rector of Trinity Church, Rutland. The text was numbers xxxv, 'J 12 Tbe theme of the sermon was the position owupied by tho clergy witb reference to modern science. Thev aro not to becjmc siec'ntlnts in any branch, but t carefully weigh and select facts which are brought to them. A; tbreo o'clock in the afternoon, an exhaustive cs-ay was read by IZ-v. Ir. Bailey, of Sheldon, upon tbe sub ject of the "Genealogy of our Lord." Tbe exercises of tho evening consisted of brief and practical remarks upon tbe subject of miions by Rev. N. F. Putnam.

It issaidthat. intheexamina- 'tion by tbecfS-iersof the Brandon Bank, they oond $20,000 of Batchelder's paper in one of tho pigeon-boles of which there was no minute on the bink bok. A Mjotpelier bmk is reported involved to tbe amount of $3,000, and three other individuals thero $3,000 more. Bitchelder'n modus oper andi was to undersell all competitors, there by monopolizing tbe market. It is said that he was accustomed to offer his lumber at $2.50 per thousand less than other deal ers, and thus Ijrce sales at ruinous prices A Montpelier man who had a yearly con tract with him, remuked that he (Batch elder) lo&t o?er $100 on each car-load he shipped to him. That man is now out $1,000. It is rumored that Batchelder has cetdit&rs alt along from Montpelier to Bos ton and Michigan. He wa-s a cash sub scriber to tbe Daily Free Pre-s, and wc haven't ziven ud alt hones of him vet It is very ldom that constant readers of the tBFE 1'kess turn out badly. HiNEE&iRcii.

At both tbe afternoon and evening meetings the Grand Officers were duly re ceived with crand honors During the evening. Prof. Wood presided at theonran and we never nave heard nira do better, or attended a meetiog when tbe mnic seemed to add mi much in avs.-tintr in the giving this decree. The criticisms were similar thoe of the afternoon, which none hearinj could help Irom framing into word praise. Before closing. Grand Master Smith Grand District Deputy Pheln.

We tru-t that this will prove only one cf tbe marjy pleasant meetings to be held in tnis District An Extraordlsary Sealeace. The following from a sentence recently pro nounced hy Judge Jteadiug, ot utucago, npon some liquor dealers who had viulated the law by selling it to minors liy the law oa ruiy belt it to men and women, if thev will buy. Yon haTe given your bond and paid jour license to 11 to tbtm, and do one Las a riht to molest yon in your legal business. Xo matter what tbe consequences nuy he, no matter what pover ty and destitution are produced by yonr bell ing according to law, you have paid jour money for this privilege, and j on are licensed to pnrsue yonr calling. No matter what families are distracted and tendered misera ble ; no matter what wives are treated with violence ; what children starve or mourn over the degradation of a parent your bnsi- nens is legalized, and no one may interfere with yon lor it. No matter what mother may agonize over the lo3 of a son, or tibter blush at the shame of a brother, 30a have right to disregard tbem all, and pursue your legal calling yon are ncenseu. ion may nt np yonr lawiui place 01 btisiucbs in tnu most enticing and captivating form ; yon may fur- niih it with the most costly and elegant equipments for your own lawful trade ; you mar fill it with the allurements of amuse ment ; von mar nse all arts to allure visit ors ; yon may skilfully arrange and expose to view your cnoicest wines ana captivating beverages ; yon may induce thirst by all contrivances to produce a raging appetite for drink, and then jon may supply that appe tite to the lull, because it is lawful ;you have paid for it yon have a license. You may allow boys and children to frequent your sa loon ; they may witness tbe apparent satis faction with which their seniors quaff the sparkling glasa ; yon may be schooling aud training tbem for the period of twenty-one, when they, too, can participate for all this islawfuL You may hold the cup to their lips ; bnt yon must not let them drink that is unlawful, tor, while yon have all these irivileges for tbe money yon pay, this poor riviiege ot selling to children is denied you. Here parents have the right to siv, 'Leave my son to me until the law gives yon a right to destroy him. Do not anticipate that ter rible moment when I can assert for bim no farther rights of protection. That will be soon enough for me, for his sister, for his mother, for his friends, for the community, to ee him take tbe road to death. Give bim to cs in bis childhood at leatt. Let us have a few hours of his loutb, iu which we can en joy his innocence, to repay us iu some small degree for tbe care and love we have lavish ed upon him.' "This is something which yon, who now stand prisoners at the bar, Lave not paid for , this is not embraced in your license, lor this ollecce the court sentences 3 on to ten days imprisonment in the county j til, und that you pay seventy-five dulLirs and costs, and that you stand committed nntil tho fines and costs 01 this prosecution ure paid. We have not beat d from any source such an arraignment ot tbe license lax as this. Vhrhtt in Adtvoilc. HoNTFELIER A LEAf OF UtRLX UlSTOEY.

A de cision of interest u life insurance policy holders has recently been published in the Connecticut Report',by which the necessity is shown of paying premiums on a life policy at latest oc tho day it fal.s due, and in every instance to the properly accredited agent of the company. The facts in ths case quoted show that to meet a payment falling due on the Orh of Mjy, the insured delivered to another party a check for tho cash part of the premium, instructing him to deliver it to the agent. b, the party intrusted, tailed to pay oyer the check until tbe 13tb. on which dav the insured died. The court held that inasmuch as the cash part ot the premium was not paid on tbe day specified, and the rreuiium note signed and delivered to the company's agent, tbe company was not bound tj pay tbe amount ol the policy, as the aent who received the check bad no right to waive any condition of tbe policy or bind the com pany.
