gsg Thanksgiving approaches and active

gB'Thanksgiving approaches and active
preparations are being made for its COM
ing. Some over-anxious person, probably
fearing to come short of poultry on that
occasion, has distracted from the hen-roost
of Waldo Brigham, Esq in this village, a
brace of old hens. Mr.. Brigham hopes
they will prove acceptable, but thinks
more care should have been exercised in
the selection, for much younger and ten
derer specimens were domicilcd on the
"roost," Speaking of thanksgiving re-
minds us that our classical turkey has
not yet arrived, and if it were not for the
fact that we had been generously invited
to partake with friend on that day, and
fear of making such sad mistake as
the one above alluded to, we might be
tempted to ''go and do likewise" but be-
ing so well provided for, poultry yards
and their proprietors may rest in peace
till after that event. Some may ask -
and why not then ?--but we only re-
mind them that "Christmas is coming" VI

An enlargement will occasion cOnsidera-
BILE outlay, as the press now used is OF size
sufficient only for the present dimensions
of the paper; but our determination to
enlarge as soon as practicable is not III
the least shaken. In the meantime we
shall endeavor to make the paper just as
valuable and interesting as if Oh larger
sheet.
The public have probably noticed that
the advertisements which we spread he
fore our readers are chiefly of the most
unexceptionable kind, the greater part OF
them relating to The business OF the
County and State. We frequently get
the most fattering offers FROM parties who
would advertise llegitimate business (aud
which nearly half the papers in the Coun-
try are teeming with J but prefeling to
make it more valuable for those who are
engaged in honorable pursuits, and to
make those columns an interesting part
of the paper we summarily reject all such
offers.
The terms will remain as heretofore,
$3.50 if paid IN ddcance, or $500 II not
IN aduance. We hope everybody by this
time fully understands the benefit of ad-
vance payments, and will adopt the plan.
10 those whose subscriptions have just
expired, still another opportunity Of max.
ing advance payment is offered. Those
who are nearly or quite year in arrears,
we will make the following liberal offer
if the past and coming year are both paid
for, advance rates will only be charged,
which will be SO, for both years.
In conclusion we say to the people. that
in order to sustain ice paper in their
midst, they should subscribe literally,
pay promptly communicate freely-dis
cussing the various topics and giving the
local newsstand encouraging it in every
way. If these principles arc reduced to
practice we will warrant the best Of feel
ing between publisher and patron.

the North Bennington ore works. A
workman named Cornelius Mahcr was
engaged in digging in what is known as a
chamber when one of the sides caved in,
burying him beneath huge weight of
earth, and killing him instantly. The
work of excavation was promptly com

the poor fellow was reached, when he was
found stone dead, with heavy boulder
pressing across his chest and side. He
was a single man of about thirty years.
