VERMONT STATE AGRICULTURAL
SOCIETY.

On che fist page Of our Issue to day appears the
names Of the officers and committees. the regula-
tons and premium list Of the Vermont State Ag-
ricultural Society for the current year All inter
csted in the operations Of the Society and all who
design 10 contribute to the exhibition or compete
or any Of the premiums offered will do we'll to pre-
serve this number for reference.
II is but four years since preparations were made
for the first exhibition Of this Society The mat
ter was then viewed in the light Of an experiment;
but we venture to say that not one Of the number
who latored at the inception Of this undertaking,
then dreamed Of the success which has ultimately
crowned their Efforts. The Society has steadily
gone forward, increasing its expenses every year,
until tits one Of the recognized institutions Of
Vermont. What is peculiarly gratifying to its
management is that oil this has been accomplished
without resort to Legislative aid 1t is creature
Of the people, formed and fashioned by them in
their individual and private capacity.
The exhibition of1S55 win be held on the ground
occupied by that Of 1852. All who were then pres
ent will remember the site as one Of the ost pleas
ant and convenient that can be found in the State
It is hoped that the farmers and mechanics Of this
county will manifest an interest in the coming ex-
position equal, at least to that exhibited by them a,
the last Fair Of the Society. The railroads will
carry and return all articles intended for the exhi-
biion free Of charge, and visitors for fare one way
n. B. Competitors for prmiums offered in the
class entitled "fjsId Crops" are not expected to
present their certificates nor make their entries at

have embarked for the war. A dcputaiion had
seen Palmerston and expec, to obtain an uncon-
ditional pardon for Smith o-Brien. The yacht
America is advertised for sale.
There had been great animation In the cot
ton market, and an extraordinary amount had
changed hands, at an advance Of IA TO 3D.
In breads,uiis and provisions no change is re-
ported, and transactions were limited to supplies
for consumption.
The appointment Of Gen. Pelissier to the
command Of the French forces OF Sebastopol is
we'll received in France. Queen Victoria is TO
visit Paris, August l6th.-A Carlist conspira-
cy on a small scale had been discovered at Sar-
agossa in Spain an officer aud 60 men Of the
garrison had deserted. In Sardinia the convent
suppression bill had been voted by the senate ;
the king had lost an inhni son, and there was
report tina, he would 60 to The eastern war.
The Russian government has ordered all the
ships Of war at Cronsiadt to he sunk, except
eight liners.--The mortality Of the Austrian
army in Gallicia continues great.
TnE CElmE,.-Pelssier's appointment is inn
mensely popular with the French army. Great
operations are hoped for II is surmised he will
make bold attempt 10 cut of Lprandi's army.
Omar Pacha has offered to take and hold Sim
phcrol with his Turks, if the French will sup
port his advances. The secret expedition which
once returned, has again sailed ON It's secret mis-.
sion. The allied fotce now in the Crimca is
about 200 600. The camp is well supplied with
Injuries as well as ncccssaries, but cholera and
and fever prevail to some extent. There was
a severe contest on the night ofihe 10Th Of May,
when the Russians retired under cover Of their
batteries. For several nights after the Rus
SLAMS made sallies and fough desperately, and
suffered severe losses. A very severe encoun-
tor lasted all night Of the 23d the Russian
loss was great and that Of the allies considera-
BILE.
LATEsr.-The latest Geographic dispatch,

pied large place ddrmie beiween the central
bastines aud the sea shore. The enemy having
suffered enormous losses on the preceding day,
yielded the more easily.

HISTORICAL MEMORANDA.

/ We are enabled, by the courtesy Of q friend, to
lay before our readers some interesting extracts
from the early records Of Guilford II is well
known that, in the contests that arose in the time
Of the Revolution, between New York and New
Hampshire, relative to the Jurisdiction over this
portion Of Vermont, the majority Of the inhabitants
Of Guiliorl sided with the Workers. The same
individuals also resisted the efforts, made by Ethan
Allen and his confederates, to establish the indie
pendcnce Of the State Of Vermont II was only
after "0ld IT, had paid them visit and told them
in such nervous and direct language as he was in
the habit Of using that they concluded to surren-
der. Many Of the most prominent workers,
were never satisfied with being separated from the
Jurisdiction Of New York, but emigrated within its
present limits. This latter State gave the township
Of Bainbridgc, in Chenango County, to the sssuf-
ferers,'' as they were denominated in the grants,
or the "Yorkers" as they were then denominated
by Allen.
The feud in Gulford at one time ran so high that
for two or three years two sets of town officers were
chosen, one by each Of the belgerent parties This
will explain the concluding extracts which We at
this time present:

morning he was in Leavenworth running balls,
and hadiaken solemn resolve that he was

anxiety for further intelligence, which we hope
to receive in time for our regular issue. Sui-
fee il To say, general fight was expected at

principles Of the Maine law last night, and
''cruslied out two petty grog shops which had

1850 he settled at Ludlow where he remained until
1853. when he removed to this village Coming
among this people, comparative stranger to mos,
Of our citizens, he very soon secured their respect
and confidence, and rapidly laid the foundations for
an extensive practice. In his intercourse with his
patients as well rs with the public his genial man
ners, modest and gentlemaniy department won
their esteem and affection, which grew brighter and
stronger until the day Of his death. lie never
sought to attract attention by any merea icious dis
play nor to dazzle the multitude by momentary
and htful brillancy His attainments. both general
and professional, like his whole character, were Of
substantial rather than Of snowy nature, and
an intimate acquaintance only served to develope
andplace In stronger relief his excellent traits.
But he is gOnel His career, so promising in its
commencement, has been arrested by power to
which we must all bow submissively. Many hearts
by this sad dspensatioB have been clothed in mourn
ing, and his grave will contain all that remains to

loved physician. His memory will long be embalm-
cd in the hearts Of his numerous friends.

Joy the Monuments Of past lincs. or so keen
to detect the differences of Character and
culture. The lecture was of course atteo-
lively alstened to, and received with great
pleasure. The audience was, in quality,
quite complimentary to the lecturer; but m
number unworthy Of the town Too many
Of the young folks were missing. and TO
them the loss of such a lecture is a great
loss. There was dance we bel eve; and
