Village improvements.

We notice that the roof to the new State
House isupon the walls, and preparations are
making for the dome. The work has progressed
with good degree of diligence, and is being
'ceH done, although it will not be quite in read
mess for occupancy the coming autumn.
The new Academy promises to be by far the
finest school building in the State, notwithstand-
ing the disgracefnl, slop-shop engraving of it
which is placed upon the county map. Such an
engraving would haunt school-boy to his
grave.
The new Jail is already rooted, and the work
shows that its Superintendent have been pecu-
liarly fortunate in selecting tho contractors
Messrs. Camp and Trow of Montpelier-to erect
it.
We are pleased to see the spirit which ami
mates our people to make improvements, and
from the numerous most successful efforts to
beautify the town, and render it a desirable
place for residence and business, we are assured
that new impulse has taken possession of the
live men of the town, that we have passed the
stationary period of the dark age, and that ev-
cry thing must now meet with such an impetus
as shall make Montpelier the fit town for the
Capitol of the Green Mountain State Her
streets are neat and clean, her sewerage clear,
and those stencil places of large villages are no
where to be found
The improvement in the street leading to the
new Academy is a monument to the enterprise
of the inhabitants in that vicinity. We might
specify numerous such telling indications that
the true idea of private convenience and public
spirit pervades the minds of our inhabitants,
but they are apparent without There are yet
still other details that are only awaiting their
time to be carried out.
We have no overloaded, overgrown residences,
but all are neat, tasty, and convenient; while
the shops, stores and churches are among the
best-and still there is considerable improve
ment contemplated In the latter during the COM
ing year. We are warranted, although no
prophet, in saying, that the snug Capitol Of
Vermont, with her present healthy moral at
mosphere, will become the home of ten thousand
inhabitants at no far distant day Then let her
fathers and citizens generally look well to it that
improvements are encouraged with a liberal
spirit, and that those entered upon are made for
permanent benefit, and then steady progress
will render the town praiseworthy ornament to
the State.

The steamship Europa, Captain Leitch, from
Liverpool srrived at Halifax, July 81.
The Atlantic Telegraph Fleet was appointed
to leave Queenstown on the 18th, for another
effort to lay the cable. The directors of the
Company having resolved, at a meeting on the

should be made forthwith, the English govern
ment issued orders accordingly.
The London Times and Daily Netos publishes
graphic descriptions from correspondents Of
the cruise of the Agamemnon, showing
the fearful peril that vessel was in. The Times
in its editorial remarks on the subject, says the
Agamemnon is clearly unfit to lay the Atlantic
cable if the suggestion for the Great Eastern
is not thought worth notice, if the proprietors
of that ship are not ready to lend it for that
object, let ship be built for the purpose at
once whether it succeeds or not at the first
trial, it will find sufficient occupation in either
renewing attempts or in laying down addition
al cable hereafter.

The Atlantic Monthly for August.

The Atlantic Monthly, in addition to its ex-
cellent articles from the pens of Longfellow,
Whittier, and other eminent writer's, presents
in the present number bill of reading of more
than ordinary vivacity. Among other good
things is a pungent review of Choate's Fifth
of July Grafton, and funny poem, probably
by Lowell, entitled the " Trustees LAMENT"
purporting to be uttered just outside of the
Dudley Observatory. The excluded trustee
givesa woeful account of his trials, and one
may readily sympathize with him when he
says
Boys, henceforth doomed to be Trustees,
Think not it ends in double ease
To those who hold the Office"
The Trustee further complains
Z" Alas twas in an evil hour

With Mrs. b. to head it
For II the " Council " have their way,

In DR.. Holmes Autocrat of the Breakfast

from horse-Rarey point of observation
| &C MAINTAINING EXTRAORDINARY.
The soft-hoofed, semi-quadruped recently cap
tured was subjected to the art of our distin-
guished man-tamer in presence of numerous
assembly The animal was led In by two stout
ponies, closely confined by straps to prevent his
sudden and dangerous tricks of shoulder hitting
and foot-strikihg. His countenance expressed
the utmost degree of ferocity and cunning.
The operator took handful of budding lilac
leaves, and crushing them slightly between his
hoofs 50 as to bring out their peculiar fragrance,
fastened them to the end of q long pole and
f held them toward the creature. Its expression
changed i'll an instant-it drew in their fra
GRANGE eagerly, and attempted to seize them in
his soft split hoofs. Having thus quieted his
suspicious subject, the operator proceeded to tic
a blue hyocinh to the end of pole and held it
out toward the wild animal. The effect wa,
= magical. Its eyes filled as if with rain drops,
and its lips trembed as it pressed them to the
flower. After this it was perfectly quiet anG
: brought measure of corn to the man-tamer
: without showing the least disposition to strik,
with the feet or hit from the shoulder
