PUBLISHER'S NOTES.
J. W. GOODELL, of Burlington, advertises his extensive business as a man- facturer of and dealer in marble and granite goods, on the fly-leaf, opposite back cover. Mr. Goodell has superior facilities, employing, as he does, artists of known skill and experience, and having adundant capital, he is ready to undertake a job of any magnitude desired, and is enabled to offer very liberal terms.
HENRY, JOHNSON & LORD, an enterprising firm of Burlington, Vt., offer nepenthe to their suffering brethren, in the several proprietary medicines they manufacture, mentioned in their card on page 199. We would advise all afflicted ones to heed their proclamation and receive a respite from the ills flesh is heir to.
THE RANDOLPH, VT., NORMAL SCHOOL .- The Orange County Grammar school, at Randolph, was constituted a State Normal school, by act of legis- lature, in 1866, and commenced work under state supervision in February, 1867. Edward Conant was principal for eight years, Abel E. Leavenworth for four and one-half years, and Andrew W. Edson for five years. Prof. Conant returned to the school in 1884, and is still principal of it. Since again coming under his charge it has added fresh lustre to its reputation as a fit place for training the minds of young men and women, either for the responsible positions of teachers, or to fill places of trust in the business walks of mature manhood and womanhood. Prof. Conant was late superintendent of education, is one of the most able instructors in the state, and those wish- ing for the advantages to be obtained under his management should address him on the subject. See card on page 178.
THE ROME, WATERTOWN & OGDENSBURG R. R .- From the original short line from Rome to Watertown and Cape Vincent, this road has acquired other lines, until it is now one of the great trunk lines of the state. Passen- gers for pleasure, business or emigration will find this route, which connects at Norwood and Ogdensburg with the Central Vermont line, one of the most interesting of all the western routes. Traversing a rich agricultural region, the road passes through several cities, and in many places gives the traveler glimpses of Lake Ontario, with its white winged vessels, and at Niagara Falls offers one of the best views to be obtained by railroad travelers. See card on page 536.
