Worcester daily spy. [volume] (Worcester [Mass.]) 1850-1888, 1862-09-13

OF the whole number has availed himself of
the privilege; the rest have all worked cheer
fully and efficiently. One of the regiments
Is differed by white captains. the other by
negroes The latter prove so decidedly SUI
penor that both regiments will hereafter be
commanded by officers of their own race.
Ihey are not only working, but drilling ::
and they already go through some of the
simpler military movements very creditably.
wherever they appear they are cheered by
our troops. Last night one of the colored
regiments, coming off duty for 81 hours, was
halted in front of headquarters, at the Burnet
House, front faced, and gave three rousing
cheers for Gen. Wallace, and three more for
Judge Dickson. They are not armed.
Last evening dispatch was received from
Plqua' Ohio, rendering the services of an en-
tire negro company, fully armed and equipped
Tor the defence of the city. Shocking as the
proposition seems to nerves which can only
tolerate white mans war it was not abso-
lutely refused, but is held in allegiance. The
proDahlllties are that those negroes will be
wanted before the week ends.

The Agricultural and horticultural Ix-
hibitiOn at Marlborough.

hibitiOn at Marlborough.
The agricultural society of w estborough and
vicinity, held their annual exhibition yester~
day. There was very good attendance, and
this festival Of the farm and garden was sue
cess. There was a very fine show of apples
and pears. Some portions of the agricultural
show were not so complete as usual, perhaps
in some particulars, but it was very satisfac-
tory as whole. The profits of the exhibition
are already appropriated to the Ladies Sol
dier's Aid Society.
Among the articles on exhibition was a
very fine and rich collection of 'shell jewel
ry' and ivory and shell dress combs, from the
mandatory Of IIildreth Brothers in North
borough; also collection of fnely-made
Shoes which Mr.. Noah Kimball manufactured
wholly by machinery run by steam. Among
the fruits we noticed an extensive show Of ma
tive grapes, including more varieties than we
have ever before seen together. Three va
rieties of Seeding grapes were exhibited by
Mr.. Oliver Bennett Of South birmingham,
called by him Blood's White, Blood's Black,
and the birmingham Seeding. The collec-
ton of flowers in the hall was unusually Sc
lect and beautiful; and they were arranged
for exhibition with admirable taste and skill,
showing that among the ladies of Westborough
the management of flowers is one of the finest
of the fine arts.
At eleven o'clock there was an address
to the society by Rev. DIR. Arnold of West.
borough. The address was delivered in one
of the churches and was listened to with close
attention and great interest. 1t was one of
those productions which come only from
thoughtful men who have the advantages of
fine culture and clear expression. His topic
was the cultivation of the earth, which he
discussed in very interesting manner with
out touching the details of practical farming.
Those who did not hear the address lost a
most agreeable and instructive entertainment.
AT 4 o'clock p. NJ. the society assembled in the
exhibition hall to listen to the reports of the
committees. The premiums were awarded
as follows =
BULLs.-There were nine entries The
first premium Of SO for the best blood animal
was awarded to the state farm for their Ayre-
shire five years old. For the best grade or
native over three years old, 50 to George H.
Raymond. For best calf, 81 to George H.
Raymond for his AYRSHIRE and Durham four
and a half months old.
FAT CATTLE.-Ihere were three entries.
The only premium 81 was awarded to j. Car
penter of Shrewsbury for his four year old

LIEUT.. Col. JOSEPH p. RICE, of the 2lst
Massachusetts regiment, who lost his life at
the battle of ChantiIly on the first of Septem-
Der, was citizen of Ashburnham, where he
leaves a wife and two children to mourn his
sad fate. In the community where he lived,
Col. Rice had many friends who had often con-
ferred upon him positions of trust and respon-
sibility. He had served as constable, over
seer of the poor, assessor, selectman and
representative in the Neutrality-suspicious.
ing all his duties with honor to him
self and to the satisfaction of all. He
was a firm friend of the military sys-
TEN of the commonwealth, and gave his
time, influence, and money TO promote its in
terests. For years he stood high among
military men in Massachusetts, as he has
done also since the present war begun He
was five years captain Of the Ashburnham In
fantry, and i'll 1860 was elected colonel Of the
old ninth regiment NJ. V. NJ, holding his
| first and only cncampment at LeominSter
that fall. 1t was pronounced by good judges
to have been very successful one, free from
toxicating liquors ut his headquarters or on
the field while in camp.
In February 1861, ne was elected brigadier
general but declined to accept for private rea-
sons. When the rebellion broke out he stood
| ready and willing to do all in his power, and
| spent time and money to recruit up his reg-
| ment then consisting Of only five companies.
| For some unexplained reason obstacles were
| thrown in his way, and he was compelled to
abandon his cherished purpose of leading the
old ninth regiment into the field. When the
2lst regiment was formed Col. Rice accepted
Il captains commission in company X. His
men were greatly attached to him and soon
after entering the service as an evidence of
their attachment, presented to him a sword
and belt valued at 500. He was promoted
to be major after the battle of Roanoke, and
| lieutenant colonel after the battle Of Newbern.
| As an evidence OF his kindness for his men it
! is mentioned to his honor, that after the bat
tie Of Camden, when his regiment were on
their weary, all night march, and many
