BRIGHTON SHOW.

The Annual Cattle Show, &c. at Brighton
was held on the 10Th and goth inst. 1t is said
that the Shows of Neat Stock was superior to
that of last year; in other respects it was
about equal. The whole number of animals
exhibited was nearly the same as in this town.
No list of the premiums has yet been publish
ed. We learn, however, that the first pre-
MUM was awarded to Zephaniah Brown OF
Charlton, for the Bull which received the
second premium here. Two of the four pre-
miums, for ploughing, was awarded to Seth
Hastings of Mendon, and to Samuel Sibley Of
Sutton. Several other premiums were award
ed to inhabitants of this County, number of
which went to New Braintree. The following
are selected from the toasts given on the oc-
casion:

notes communicated to it by the Musico
Grafo, and which may with facility be
adapted to an organ or piano. But this
is not his only effort Of genius, being de-
sirous of engraving some musical signs
on an ivory tablet, he found bis hand I'M
able to perform the operation; he after
wards applied himself to the invention of
an instrument, by the use of which the art
of engraving will be highly benefited.
BY the use thereof the graVer directs
his tool with the greatest nicely, SO that
he can describe two lines very near ap-
proaching yet without the fear of unit
ing, and with greater nicely than the
finest miniature painter can describe the
lines in the skin. In addition 10 these
useful inventions connected with the
fine arts, he has communicated to the
Royal Arsenal method of turning and
polishing gun barrels 10 or l2 at a
time, and for polishing all kinds of'met-
ais; it is turned by means of water.
His method of polishing arms was to-
tally unknown hitherto, always having
been performed by manual labor. His
Majesty has given him employ in the
Royal Arsenal, and an exclusive privi-
lege for twenty years for the manufac-
ture and sale of the different inventions.

and the Aeronaut made her appearance.
She took her seat and arranged the

let go, babe her friends farewell, waved
her flags, and rose with great rapidity
amidst the shouts of the surrounding

We have heard many tough stories, but do not
recollect one which exceeds the following.
from southern paper
There is. at the present time, in Marion
District, S. c. boy child, the son of black
woman belonging to Mr.. John Mcleod, who
at the age of three months, walked quarter
OF mile with ease and without assistance
He is not quite 9 months old, yet speaks SEN
sibly and deliberately, rides on horseback to
any place, when assisted to mount, and does
not weigh more than from TO 10 pounds. He
oftentimes grasps the horse firmly by the
name, throws his heels in the air, and per-
forms several other antic tricks with all the
agility of an equestrian monkey.

BENNINGTON, (vER.l OCT. II.


On Wednesday last, son of Oliver
Bebee, of WinhalI, aged 9 years, went
to the woods not far from his fathers
residence, accompanied only by small
dog, where he discovered young Cab,
which, by the assistance of his dog, was
soon driven on to a tree. The boy i'm
mediately assembled the tree, and when
arrived near the object of his pursuit,
scene presented at which stouter heart
might have failed. The old Bear made
her appearance at the foot of the tree,
at which the DOG retreated, but as the
Bear attempted to ascend the tree, the
dog returned, renewed his courage, seiz-
led her by the posteriors, and brought
her back upon the ground the Bear
turned and made several unsuccessful
attempts to get her fangs upon the dog.
The intrepid little Green Mountain
urchin was not TO be frightened from his
pursuit "by the sight Of a bear" but
whilst she was diverted by the exertions
of his faithful little animal, he seized
the Cub, descended the tree, and made
safe retreat with his prize in bis arms
The Bear made close pursuit short
distance into the open fields; but being
constantly annoyed by the faithful dog,
she sheared off for the woods, and the
little Hero came in to receive the con-
gratulations. of the neighborhood, and
takes much delight in exhibiting the
trophy of his youthful intrepidily.

GREECE.

UhEECE.
BY the late arrivals, il appears certain that
the army of Redschid Pacha has been sgnally
defeated by the Greeks, before Missolonghi,
in four several actions, three Of which were
between the 18th and 10Th of July, and the
last on the I'd of August. Some European
Commanders, who were lying at Misso!onghi,
give the following account of this action:
THE Captain Pacha sent 100 small armed
vessels with 5000 men, who began the attack
by sea, whilst Redschid Paoha, with 10000,
as it is generally said, seconded him BY land.
The engagement was obstinate the sky was
hidden by the smoke, and the earth trembled
from the shock of cannon. The battle lasted
six hours, during which time the European
| commanders could see nothing on account of
the smoke. AT last the cannonade increased,
and two hours after, when the smoke had a
little subsidized, they saw the standard of the
cross still remaining in the fortress of Msso-
longh. Then The commanders approached in
their boats, and saw how terrible the defeat of
the barbarans had been. The trenches were
hlied and the sea covered with dead bodies
They say there were fifteen thousand killed
and wounded. In the mean time arrived
Miaulis, and the Captain Pacha was obliged to
flee to Castro on which the Greeks burned
| one irigate, one corvette, one schooner, and
took all of the 100 small vessels which had
been engaged in this affair. Thus ended this ia
nous expedition against Missolonghi. The land
forces fled, pursued by our troops. On the
4th OF August, the Captain Pacha appeared in
the waters of Zante, and Miaulis was in chase
of him."
This is probably exaggerated. The Turk
ish accounts, however, admit severe defeat.
| Other accounts of these actions will be found
in our Mailcolumns.
= The accounts relative to the situation Of
lbrahim Pacha's army are confused and con-
Trajectory. Those from Smyrna "a Turkish
town near the Dardanelles) represents him as
always successful against the Greeks, and
predict their speedy and complete overthrow,
while those through European channels assert
that ne is in critical situation, that part Of
his army has been destroyed at Tripolizza, and
that the campaign will end gloriously for the
Greeks, The latter, we believe, are entitled
to most confidence, inasmuch as they bring
accounts from the Morea to a later date, and
because the Smyrna accounts have always
given the most unfavorable aspect to the
Greek affairs, and have continually predicted
their overthrow.
We apprehend that the expedition in favor
OF the Greeks, now fitting out in England I'M
der Lord Cochrane, and which is soon to sail,
is calculated to have more decided effect
upon the contest than any other occurrence Of
the present campaign. 1t is to consist, in
part, of two powerful steam vessels, by the
aid Of which the Turkish fleets will be placed
entirely at the mercy of the Greek fre-ships.
When there ia wind they viii, by the aid OF
steam, be able to get the advantage of the
Turkish fleets in position, and in a calm, they
can attack and destroy them at pleasure.
