The case has tew, if any parallels. The doctor is of a prominent French Canadian family, and came to Winooski to praciice three years ago. There he met Katharine Collins, a farmers daughter, noted for her beauty. Patanaude fell in stantly in love with her, and was so devoted in his attentions as to totally neglect his profession. Be followed the girl like a dog.' Again and again he protested his love, only to be scornfully refused. As usual, the woman loved another, but this did not deter the young Cana dian, and one day, ' when he was imploring her to "give him her heart," she replied that she would sometime; and when he asked the second time: "When she was dead." Dr. Patauaude - said. Do you mean it ! and she laughingly said "Yes." I Last week. Miss Collins was tak- en snddenily ill with pneumonia, Dr. Patau.iude attended her and tried to save her life, but she. died and was buiied in the parish - : - 1 1 I churchyard, f The next night the sexton, see ing the grave had been disturbed, made and investigation, and the body found gone. A countryman ar&ested on sus picion confessed haiug helped Dr Patanande to rob the grave.

Representatives Venable, of Vir ginia, Elliot, oi Southi Carolina, were unseated by the Republicans and their places given to the col ored contestants, Langston and Miller. In the unseating of Mr. Elliot the Republicans were guilty of the most arbitrary and flagrant viola tion of legislative ethics. The opposition were not permit ted a single inomeut in;, which to defend their case, jlit was called up as soon as the Laugstbn matter was disposed of, the previous ques tion was ordered, and in thirteen minutes by actual count the deed was done. i I Talk about despotism and Crom wellian methods: j j ' i There never was anything like it in the history of American legis lation, i ; It was a biutal, wanton disre gard of the rights of; the minority.

Frorp. calculations based on these fiimres j - o the Board requests the Mayor to or der a new census which will be forth- The work of enume ation will be (jlone by a force of 10 OA policemen, wlo will be detailed each to look after the particular neighbor hood in which he is most acquainted. They will take .the rame, age, sex and residence bf each person. The count will be made by election dis tricts, the same as was the U. S. cen sus. It is , expected that the new conut'will be inished in three weeks, after which you can pay your money and take your choice. i . THE fire prophet.
