Al DIRGE.

i A balmy breeze from the Southern land
Il Came floating softly BY,
While leafy bower and quiet glen
Received j. with sigh.
For gentle dirge il bore along,
A dirge for the fair and young,
Al it fitted through the shady wood
A moufnful song it sung.
Lay her gently down TO s!un,ter.
Where zephyrs softly stray.
And the sunsets rosy cleaning
Lightly falls At close Of day
Where the dew-drops, nightly weeping,
GIisicn on the grassy lea,
While the leaflets lowly whisper
In the dark exchanging tree.
Where bright Luna. mildly beamiag.
Sheds mellow Iightness there.
As L waichfui yigils keeping
Ger the peaceful slun,berer fair.
Come sweet Nightingale Of evening,
Muruiur here thy soothing strain.
While the baimy soft-winged zephyrs
Sigh across the silent plain.
Grea,fal willow bending DER her,
Close enfoId her in-ihf shade,
She has passed from ear.h to Heaven,
As the forest fowIeis fade.
Gently weep We dews above her,
Murmuring streamlet, let thy flow
Be sweet, sad requiem for her.
Where she lieth, lieth low.

The Frozen Well.

We noticed some months since the fact
of there being, in Brandon, well there,
recently dug, at the bottom of which,
forty feet below the surface, the earth was
found to be frozen, though there was no
frost at the top Of the ground. Though
it was doubtless received by many as
mere humbug it was literally true and
the phenomenon has thus far stood the
test of the season and at the present time
the water in the well is encased in wall
Of ice six inches in thickness. The wonder
is attracting the attention of the curious
enquirers, as well it may, and we UNDER
stand that a gentleman in Boston has ap-
propriated a sufficient sum of money for
a thorough scientific investigation OF the
case
One Of the editors OF the Springfield
Republican, a scientific savant, has visited
the well and offers the following remarks +:
1.-The causes lie evidently in some peculiar
ity of the soil in that locality Suppose
we take into con Iteration several well
known facts. Chloride of calcium, with
snow Of ice forms powerful frigorifc
mixture. This cloride is formed by a
union OF carbonate Of lime (marble) with
muriatic acid, which is made from COM
mon salt.-Choride of calcium exists in
solution in ocean waters, and also in GER
tain spring waters, commonly in union
with salt and chloride of magnesium. As
before stated, the region about the well
abounds in marble, or carbonate of lime,
and quite likely this water may be from
one of the springs saturated with chloride
~ ca'o'n'" 20 union with salt, &c. II salt

DEATH OF ELDER SAwYER.-We are
panied by the intelligence of the death Of
the venerable Elder Joseph Sawyer, which
occurred at lis residence in Whiting, on
Wednesday last. He had for few days
been slightly troubled with an unpleasant
sensation in the region of the heart, but
was without any serious apprehension. On
the dpy Of his death he had been somewhat
more actively employed than usual and
with no unusual inconvenience. but while
sitting in his chair, and without any
warning he died, instantly, probably of
an affection of the heart. He was SO
years old, when thus closed his active and
useful life. Elder Sawyer was among tho
first pulpit orators in Western Vermont,
was venerated and loved universally where
he was known, and perhaps as much out
of his own particular denomination, (Bap.
tist) as in it.

The County Ticket.

We published last week the declination
of William Joslin, Of Vergennes,who was
nominated by the Republican County
Convention for the office of High Bailiff.
The County Committee have presented in
his stead for the office Lucius s. Cramp.
ton, Esq, of Middlebury, now, and for
several years past, Deputy Sheriff. The
selection is judicious one, and we be-
lieve will meet with general appreciation.
This nomination completes the full
ticket, 1t was nominated and ratified
without dissenting voice at the fullest
Republican Convention ever held in Adj
olson County. The nominations are some
of them new, as might have been ex-
pected, but taken together, we think the
ticket is very good one and very gen.
orally commended.
Hon. S. P. Nash and Judge Smith
were, as they deserved to be, nominated
unanimously. Mr.. Nash took a high
rank as a new Senator last fall, and his
course is very highly spoken of by his as
sociates. Judge Smith has proven a very
popular associate justice upon the Bench.
OF Gen. Allen, the new nominee for
Senator, we know little personally. He
Is well spoken of by his friends. Mr..
Cook, the nominee for County Judge, is
gentleman of good culture, and accurate
habits of thought, in the prime of life,
and is highly thought of in his township
and by his acquaintance generally. He
is nominated to succeed Judge Wright, Of
Shoreham, who has been one of the most
popular Judges we have had upon the
Bench for many years,-who declined.
Mr.. Bascom and Mr.. Conroe were sew.
orally nominated in Committee by an al
most unanimous vote, and will both do
honor to the positions to which they will
be called. Mr.. Bascom is very well known
as a native of the county, and member
of the Constitutional Convention in 1857.
Though not of long practice as an attor-
ney, he possesses a clear head ripe judg-
ment, and heart in the right place; and
we have no fears that he will do dscredit
to the position that has been so well filed
by his able predecessors. Mr.. Conroe is
one of our most thorough-going business
men, has had large experience in the
settlement of estates of the most intricate
nature in which he has discharged his
duties with singular fidelity and ability,
and with unquestioned integrity.
Mr.. Collamer was nominated by very
large majority for Sheriff, and will no
doubt make an acceptable officer.
Judge Munsill was nominated for the
taoenty-tourth time, as usual, unani-
mously.
Freemen OF Old Addison the ticket
is before you. Let every man do his
duty.

1t is great accommodation to the
community along this Line, and I hope the
citizens will feel an interest to sustain il
and give Mr.. Cutler their confidence and
patronage. would suggest also that
the billy and mountain part of the route
be put in better repair, deep ruts aud low
places need to be filled up, stones removed
and the bushes cut away from the road
side. The road at present is in very
bad condition, and there can be no excuse
for further delay to put it in good repair
There is more travel and teaming on this

all to keep the road in good condition,
