After the subsistence Of the mirth of the
audience Mr.. Field spoke briefly, ss'stan-
TALLY as follows
Mr.. FIELDS REMARKS.
Gentlemen Of Burlington This kind re-
ception will long be thing of pleasant re
mcmbrance to me. ] know that there is
nothing personal in the honor you have done
Inc it is rendered because am one of those
who have been concerned in come citing
America with England.
We are proud not only OF our country and
our history but Of our ancestry. We OF
New England, are proud to say that we are
the sons Of Old England.
In this enterprise ofthe Atlantic Telegraph
the sons Of Vermont have had large ard hon
orable share. Your Senators and Representa-
tivcs in Congress, were to a man in favor OF
it, and rendered it important aid botn by
voice and vote, on the floor of our national
legislature. One, end perhaps the most
| prominent one, of the English directors of
the Atlantic Telegraph Company, one OF the
first merchants of London, = man widely
known and respected abroad fer. his strict
| integrity, his cool Judgment, his enterprise
and his many admirable qualities, as well as
for his great wealth, who has been among
the prime movers of the cnterpriso--this man,
Mr.. C. NJ. Lampson, is a native Of Vermont
Gentlemen, when England and the United
! States, under take to carry out an underta-
king, what can stop it pray that this
| wire may remain n bond Of peace between
the two nations, who speak the same Ian
guage, whose interests are 50 nearly identical,
and who united form force which moth
ilg can oppose.
Mr. Field added few words concerning
he vast boundaries Of our country and Of
the composition and character of our people,
and expressed his belief that nothing can
stop our progress as nation. In
conclusion he again returned his thanks
to his audience and to the gentlemen who
had spoken such words OF kind welcome.
Only moment could be allowed aftoT the
close of Mr. Fields remarks, (Which were re.
ceived with every mark Of qualification by
= the audience, )for the individual greetings Of
e our citizens. A barouche. drawn by four
horses was waiting for him at the door, into
which he stepped and at half past ten tool
: boat for the South.
o Mr.. Fields is younger looking man thar
t most persons expected to find him, we fancy
: He is spare in person and has thin face will
= rather sharp features anda mild and pleasan
countenance, bearing small marks Of the rea
energy and persistency of the man. His re
ccption in Burlington was entirely an i'm
promptu affair 1t was, however, under tn
c circumstances, Il proper and crcditable ind
h cation of the interest which our citizens fee
:, in the great enterprise of the day, and {
h their honor to the man, who, under God, We
+ so largely instrumental in securing its SUI
c cessful completion.

by Vermont and New York and the Commit
tee could not decide between them. The
question was settled by Mr.. Atwater, OF
Springfield, who proposed to have Il duplicate
of the Prize Banner made at his own private
expense, the other remaining there until the
duplicate should be completed, when one
should be presented to one State and the 9th
cr to the other, as entitled to equal merit.
The proposition was received with great np-
plausc and Mr. Atwater was treated to three
cheers. Everybody felt relieved as it was
bad job we'll settled.
The Vermonters said their show Of horses
there that week would have been very much
larger but for the holding of the State Far
at the Same time. They promised. however,
to be there next year in such force that there
should be no question of superiority. The
New Workers accepted the Vermont challenge
and promised to purchase enough Vermont
horses in the year to make up any required
amount at the next show.
An auction sale of horses was held after
the award of Premiums. Not many were
sold the only Vt. horse we noticed was
Belle Air''-Back Hawk Stallion 5 years
old owned by Capt. Shields Bennington -
sold for $3.50.
Henry Reyes of Newbury, VI, sold his
splendid pair of black mares at private
SALE to Cuban gentleman who knows what
good horsc-nesh is.
4 saddle horse owned by Col. Blake Of
Boston, was sold for 5l00, at private sale, to
Il young married Spanish lady from Cuba.
The best sale made was of four months
colt of "Sontag," owned by Mr.. Bovine of
Flushing. The colt was sold by Mr.. Bovine
to William II. Ladd of Ohio, for 81 800.
The Springfield Republican says that orders
were sent to the exhibition from gentlemen
at distance, for the purchase of fine horses
amounting to &27 900, and very little, il
largest orders were for pairs-one gentleman
authorizing the payment of $4,000 for q
pair worth that sum, but no horses worth
that were for sale.
