VERGENNEs, VT, Sept 2Oth, 1859.

NERGENNEs, W., sept 2Otn, 1909.
Mr.. EDIroR Fall, with i:s chilly nights,
variegated scenery, and golden fruit, has come
upon US almost unawares. for we have been ex-
peeting to enjoy, at least. few weeks of Sum-
mer, but we are doubtless doomed to disappoint.
ment, for the top of Mansfield Cthe highest
peak of the Green Mounlains) already appears
covered with snow.
The weather has been very cold and dry du-
ring the Summer, with a little frost every
month. The farmers are much discouraged
about some of their cropssr Ohis however, we
know is the case with many every year, let the
season be what it Enay). All of the crops have
Suffered much except wheat, and there is moi
much of that planted, grass being the chief de.
peadence.

quired 20 men for several days at work. very
hard; they were finally relieved by few
hours rain. Another fire occurring a few days
ago on a neighboring farm, young lady while
assisting in extinguishing it, was burned by hel
clothes taking fire, SO severely as to make hel
life despaired of.
The Third Exhibition of the Champlain Val
ley Agricultural Society was held in our city
on the 9th, 9th and 10th insts., and it is esti
mated that between 60OO and 5000 persons
were present.
The first day was devoted to the reception
aud exhibition of stock. The display of horses
cattle, sheep and swine was very good, much
better than was expected from the backward
ness of the season. Very little fruit. Farming
implements, very good variety.
The great centre ofattraction was the Flora
Hall, where the ladies exhibited much taste in
the selection and arrangement of fancy goods
paintings, flowers, &c. The latter were
displayed in rich abundance and variety, not
withstandng the dryness and coldness of the
season. A box containing 100 varieties oi
Verbenas, attracted much attention.
On the second day, Hon. Z d. Culver deliv.
cred a most finished and interesting agricultu.
tural address, two hours in length. Mr.. Arson
Burlingame was expected, but failed to be pre-
sent.
The third day was devoted to the trial Of
horses, or in other words, to horse.racing, sew.
eral purses being trotted for, which regarded in
a moral point of view, threw shade over the
otherwise interesting and profitable annual ex.
hbition of the skill and taste of the Green
Mountain farmers and mechanics.
During the whole time, among six or eight
thousand persons on the ground nor in our
streets. did see single drunken man. Can
you say the same of a similar gathering in
Delaware? We are blessedIwith prOhiGitory

UufantiCidP,

We learn that on the 1st of April, 1859, a
daughter of Mr.. Summerville, ofNew Market,
in this county, went out to an adjoining build
ing to dig fishing bait, and on digging under the
eve ofthe house, she dIsinterred the body of an
infant child, the body having been covered with
coal ashes to about the depth Of six inches be-
low the surface, and from the appearance ofthe
child it is supposed to have been put there about
four or five months previous TO being found
The building under which the child was found
had been occupied by Julia Sisler up to the 18th
of December, 1853, and has not been occupied
since, and from the appearance of the aforesaid
occupant the citizens were not surprised at find
ing the corpse Of a child near the aforesaid
house.
