STRANGE SLAVE TRIAL II Mason County
Ky. The correspondent of the Pittsburg Dis
patch furnishes the following particulars Of
/. slave trial held in Mason Count, Ky. -
..On August llth and 18th, one of the
most exciting cases ever occurring in this
section of the country, and one too, in when
the feeling Of all We're deeply enlisted, came
before the Circuit Court. The circumstan-
ces OF the case briefly stated, are tn, Sc :
About year and halt since, Il woman was
arrested by order OF man named Dodson,
(acting as agent for one Mrs, Goddard, } was
brought TO our town and lodged in negro
Jail for safe keeping, until further disposition
could be made of her person, the intention OF
the person or persons ordering her arrest uu-
doubtedly being to sell her to 60 down South.
Seeing what appeared to every one white
woman held in bondage as a STARE, and con-
fined in a negro Jdii, enlisted ;ho deepest feel

taken from her captivity, bond was drawn
and signed by some of our most worthy citl-

home and friends rhc truth of the matter

more than twenty years, and 10 make 1t ap-
pear more fully that She was slave, her 81

A negro, but a white woman, with not par
ticle of negro blood in her veins, they ha'
her arrested and lodged in Jail, 50 as to sci
her to 20 South, thus getting her out OF th

trial came of in our Circuit Court the ST
auel of which is as follows .-
The very ablest counsel oiwhIch our bar ca

then prevalent in the crowded Court House

the night had shaken the nerves of the poor
girl, and for some hours she raved wildly.
Towards night, however, she sank into u
sweet sleep, and awokc in the full possession
Of her faculties. Then she told who she WAS
and whence she came.
Aroused, She said, by the violence Of the
tempest, she had wrapped her infant charge
in the bedding and had escaped from the
house. Affrighted by the combined terrors
of the food and storm, she failed to strike the
rising ground, on which the inhabitants
wore taking refuge, and pursued the main

idiot. But spring saw her perfectly con-
vaesccnt, and in the summer she took up
her abode for life in the home Of her pre-
server.
Successive floods subsequently visited the
township, and the colonial government were
at last compelled to move the settlement to a
higher and drier site than the frequently in
undated valley of Gundagai.

The Eight Annual Exhibition Of the Yer
mont state Agricultural Society, will be held
at Burlington, ON Tuesday Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, the ! ith, 18th, 10th,
and lGth days Of september next
sufficiently large enclosure has been pre-
pared for the exhibition, within which is a
trotting course, cattle and sheep pens and
suitable arrangements for the accommoda
ton of ali animals and articles on exhibition,
and for the convenience of those who may
witness the exhibition. These accommoda-
tons, the provision made for animals, and
the terms Of exhibition are so well known to
those who have attended the previous Fairs
OF the Society, as to render a detail Of them
unnecessary. All needed particulars can be
learned from an inspection Of the Show-bills
which give the premium list, names of Judges
and regulations in full and which will soon
be posted in every town in the State.
Exhibitors must have whatever they intend
to exhibit entered on the Secrctary's books
on or before Tuesday. the l4th of September.
Persons residing without the State may COM
pete for the liberal list of premiums offered
f,r foreign horses and cattle, for all those
offered or sheep. and for all on articles in
the mechanics hall, including agricultural
inn l'ncnts, machines, manufactures, &C.
They may also make exhibitions in any class
where they do not enter for premium.
We have the pleasure of announcing to the
members Of the Society, and to the public
that Hon. Jacob Collamer has accepted an
invitation to deliver the Address on this oc-
casion.
Arrangements have been effected as usual
with all the Railroads in the State, and with
the Steamboat Companies on Lake Cham
plain, to carry animals and articles to and
from the Fair free, and visitors for fare one
way.
The past history of the State Agricultural
Society is a sure guaranty that every eXertion
will be made by the managers to render the
Exhibition creditabe to Vermont. In fur
theruntc of this end it is sincerely hoped that
every Jock-growcr, manufacturer and far

show in every respect what it should be
The resources Of Vermont will compare fa-
vurably with those Of any other State Of its
size in the Union, and there is no reason why
that fact should not be made manifest to all

THE WATERS ARE OUT.

Gundagai is "a small settlement in the inte-
rior of New South Wales 1t is situated on
the banks of the Murrumbidgce, one of the
feeders of the Great Murray River and
the high road from Sidney to Melbourne
passes through it. The surrounding coun-
try consists, for the most part, OF valleys, SO
broad that they may almost be designated
plains, dotted With occasional isolated
mounds of small elevation.
When first settled there my residence was
a little verandah cottage, built of wood. At
the rear was a large garden devoted to kitch-
en- produce, and in front was wilderness,
which we liked to call flower garden
Flowers were there, truly, but SO utter ly
neglected, that they looked more like over
grown weeds. There were thickets of ger
aniuins, tangled masses of pinks and carna-
tions, and struggling hedges OF osebushes,
The cottage itself consisted of four rooms
all On the ground floor and it seemed lit
tie singular that it should have been built on
piles, raised three feet above the level OF the
gardens but subsequent experience showed
me the necessity Of this arrangement

roughly wrctched aspect, that | almost fear

When she came, however,l.I was agreeabl,

beds to order was 70 her a delightful pros

pervision the flower borders were trimmed
