THE LATE REV. DR.. WAYLAND.-
A memorial service was held Sunday
morning at the First Baptist Church,
Somerset street, occasioned by the recent
death of their former pastor, the Rev.
Francis Wayland, d. d., President Of
Brown University. In front Of the pull
pit was placed liie.sized portrait Of the
deceased, appropriately draped with en-
blems of mourning. The Rev. DR.. Neal
in commencing his address, took for che
foundation of his remarks the passagt
of Scripture in Zechariah Ii :2-"How
fir tree for the cedar i fallen The
mighty is spoiled" The speaker INDUCED
in "reminiscences of the pastorate of DR.
Wayland over the First Baptist Church
and recounted the various evidences o
his interest in that Church down to thu
time of bis death. He spoke Of his faith
fulness as a pastor and as Christian
and dwelt with much feeling on the kint
and tender regard be always cherished
for his people. He remarked on the de
votion he always showed to the work i'm
mediately before him. He was also EN-
inenlly patriotic and was always found t.
be on the side Of freedom. He refuse,
peremPtoriy to strike from one of hi
works the chapter on personal liberty
though bis publishers assured him tina
the profitable sale of the book at tn
South would be injured il that chapte
should not be expunged. He was
thorough believer in Jesus Christ an,
never wayered. His reason took hol,
on Christ and Christ was the inspirer O
bis heart. Simplicity was the distinguish
ing feature Of his intellectual and of hi
christian character. He grew in grac,
and strength to the last of his life. H,
was tender-bearted and kind to the err
ring, but hater of empty pretensiol
and assumption. In conclusion DR.. Nea
remarked that DR.. Wayland's influence
works and memory still live for good
and will live for ages to come.-Bosto,

The Best Breed o f Cattle for
Vermont.

| " S&bb1O 1Ol
Vermont.
AT the Farmers meeting at the State
Fair, at White River, a discussion was
bad upon the question, What is the
best breed Of cattle for Vermont /?
The first speaker was Mr.. ID. Kim.
ball Of North Clarendon. After remark.
ing upon the broadness of the question.
he stated his belief that the Durham or
Short Horn breed was the best for gen.
eral raising in the State, not to speak of
exceptions for some particular localities.
Without going into the science of breed
ing, the speaker commended that the su.
periority Of Durhams lay in their largest
growth, and in the fact that they were
the most profitable to raise and most ca,
gerly sought for in the market, both for
stock and beef, because they contained
less tallow and coarse meat than other
breeds. He could not say whether they
we're equal to the Ayrshire for dairy pur-
poses, but ifthey were not, they would still
be the best for the State, generally speak
ing. Mr.. Kimbalrs ideas were given in
homely off.hand style, and commanded
general attention.
Mr.. Sanford of Orwell followed, and
while agreeing with Mr.. Kimball as to
the value Of crossing breeds, he believed
that the Devon cattle were the best for
the State. New England could cot
compete with the West in raising cattle
which required grain for fatening The
Devons, by getting fat in the pastures,
and thus cutting their own feed, could be
raised more cheaply than Durhams.---
The speaker believed also that the Dew
ops were the best mixers. In regard to
talow, he had always supposed that the
best beef came from cattle with the most
tallow, and if Devons had more than
Durhsms, then the meat of the former
was best.
Mr.. Y. Allen Of Vergennes, said the
Durham cattle appeared to be the bes.
for his section at least I h e former
brought better prices than the Devon,
and thrived equally well when the Same
feed was given. Devons in fact, had al
most entirely disappeared from his sec
lion of the State. Mr.. Allen appeared
to have the audience with him in his opin.
ion Of the superiority of Durhams, and
his remarks were received with applause.
Mr.. Kilman of St. Adams, said few
words in favor of Ayrshires, regarding
hem as most profitable for the dairy.
which was the best reliance for profit.
Hon. John Gregory Of Mortified de.
Tended the old ratiye breed for their
good dairy qualities, improved by cross-
Ing with the Short Horned Durham
He regarded them as the best cattle for
The State. The discussion was further
continued by A. d. Smith of Dandy, who
what be called the milk-pail
breed of native cattle, which gave the
argest quantity of milk and were, there.
ore, best for cheese makers. Remarks
we're made by several other gentlemen
before the meeting adjourned. - Boston
