TyHE annual meeting ofthe Caledonia Coun
IL yAgriculturalSo will be holden at the
Court House in Danville on Tuesday, the goth
day of January next at 10 o'clock A. Nj. on
which occasion the Society will attend to the
election of officers, to the Reports of Commit
tees, to awarding premiums on farms, and
other business A general attendance is re-
quested
The applicants for premiums on farms are re-
quested to forward statements of the produc-
tons of their farms, to either of the examining
CON- viz: E. S. Mattocks, Peacham, Enos Ste
vens, Barnet, and John Evans, Lyndon, as ear
ly as consistent, as the Committee must pre-
pare their reports previous to the meeting.
The subscriptions for the past year for MEM
berships, are rs yet insufficient to enable the
Society to draw its proportion of the State
fund, and the town agents are requested to
make such collections as they are able, before
the meeting.

4 BRUTE OF A SCHooLMAs TER.-Ihe Bar
re Mass Patriot gives the story of II school
master in Milington, Franklin county, who,
because a boy was unable to master his les
son, beat him so cruelty that he tainted three
times under the operation, and upon his way
home had TO crawl portion of his way upon
his hands and knees. A warrant was issued
for the arrest of the wretch, but he escaped,
and his friends intend to compromise the
matter.
DEATH FROM THE BITE OF HOG. The
wife ofJoseph Hill, aged 65 years. Newton
Sussex county, was bitten in the banda short
time since, by hog causing wound which,
in spite of every application. spread through
and affected the whole entire arm, until finally
the malignant virus reached the body, and
entering the vitals, terminated her suffering
by death on Thursday last.-.Netcark. 4drertis-

1t has been ascertained that the expense of
firing salutes by our men of war, in honor OF
tn G visit of this or that parsonage, has been
for the last year, $4,000 more than the Post
office department has lost by the introduction
of cheap postage. Suppose Mr. Johnson
tnle that to make up his detiicency.-.4iJdny

Divorces. The present term of the Court
of Common Pleas, for Hamilton county, o.
hio has seventy cases of divorce upon the tri-

NEw-HAMPsHIRE. The official return OF
the votes for Member of Congress III New
Hampshire at the last trial shows the follow
ing result:

The Governor it is said has had u serious
quarrel with the Council, which is not yet
settled or likely TO be. The iron rule of To-
co-focosm in the Granite State appears 10 he
effectually broken.
FATAL CARELEssNEss. We learn from the
Worcester Transcript, that girl about twelve
years of age, named Susan Bumb, of Bridge
water, was accidentally killed on Sunday
week, by her brother. He took up a gun,
surprising it was unloaded, and discharged it
at her. She lived but a few moments, only
uttering the exclamation, "Oh! you have shot
me-"
GOODNESS. The Washington Union speaks
of John Tyler's administration as ''the late
Wing administration" and charges upon the
wings the corruption and meanness which dis
tinguished that administration, after the
treachery ofTyler, and his union with the To-
cofocos.
The Rochester Democrat suggests that if
the Sub-Treasury shall be reestablished, the
title fthe act should be-"a bill to enable the
present office holders to tread in the footsteps
of their illustrious predecessors"

NOT BAD. An exchange paper, we be-
lieve it is the Lowell Courier, has the follow
ing good story;
An old lady, resident of n neighboring
place, kept large family of Turkeys, per-
haps sixty. She, like great many otheI
people, thought great deal of her turkeys,
consequently valued them very highly. OPP
posite her door was "Wcst India Goods
Store" The man who kept it one day empt-
led his casks of cherries, intending 10 replace
them with new. This old lady being eco
nomical, thought it great pity to have all
these cherries wasted, and in order 10 have
them saved, she would just drive over her
turkeys and let them eat them. In the course
ofthe day the old lady thought she would
look after them and see that they were in no
mischief. She approached the yard and 10 I!
in one corner laid her turkeys in one huge
pile, dead. eyes, they were stone dead"
What was to be done?
Surely the old matron could not loose the
feathers! She must pick them! She called
her daughter and picked them, intending 10
have them buried i'm the morning Morning
came g. behold there were her turkeys stalk
ing about the yard featherhss enough, las
may be supposedly crying out "quit, quit"
feeling no doubt mortified that their drunken
fit had been the means oflosing their coats.
Poor things, they had said "quif' before
they had begun they would not have been in
this chad fix"
We would advise all young men who are
in the habit of drinking, TO leave off before
they get picked; and to those who do not, let
every young lady say "qua."

This work contains the best productions Of Eng
lish law authors to priority of claim
on the part of any American publisher Such books
are now notoriously too dear The reason is, that
as fast as they appear, they become monopoies in
the hands of booksellers in the Atlantic cities. I'm
der the plea of right, acquired by the addition of
notes of American decisions, the latter claim un-
divided title to those works. and set burdensome
price on them. The publishers Of the work now
offered to the profession throughout the Union, will
not respect such titles but will reprint the standard
British law books as fast they emanate from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
Of such writers as Starkie, the Chittys, Stephen,
and Archibod, appear, they shall also be included;
and digests Of equity and law decisions works
which have been studiously kept out of the Law
Library published at Philadelphia have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law.
n5= This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers of l60 pages, printed fine white paper, and
good new long primer type at seven dollars per an
mum, payable half yearly.
