Tho question Of greater interest than
any other to Addison County, is that
which concerns our leading staple sheep.
Hence, all look with no little interest to
the opening of the Fall trade. Few
were sufficiently sanguinc to believe that
il could reach figures like those of last
year, and some, of the conservative sort,
protcsscd not TO desire it. The trade is
now fairly opened and reference to Il few
rales that have come to our knowledge,
and are elsewhere reported, give Il clew
to the true state Of the market for super
ior animals. Other and more significant
sales have been made which we are not
ut liberty to mention. Car loads of rams
are constantly being shipped from this de-
pot, 10y western dealers. An unintiated
observer Of the hocks that pass before our
window would be equally puzzled TO tell
where they all come from and where they
can all he needed. This class of inferior
animals we understand are bought at
prices ranging from $50 to 800 and
over. We hear as yet of few sales Of
ewes 1t is too early for that trade and
we apprchend that the supply is quite
limited. Present appearances Indicate
Enthusiastically that prices this year will
rule higher than ever before, notwith-
standing the cutlery that money is tight
in the west and no sale for wool.

CATTLE DISEASE. The cattle disease.
which was lately announced to have brok-
en- out in England, still continues and is
making sad havoc with the dairy and
market herds. As has been already stat
ed the disease Is highly infectious, and il,
one instance half Of a herd Of eighty head
died within ten days. The disease is be-
lieved to be highly Identical with the cat
tie plague which has destroyed immense
numbers OF cattle in Russia and Austria.
The British. government has adopted
measures calculated to elicit fuller infor-
nation in regard to the nature of the dis
ease, and everything will be done that
can be done, both by public measure and
private vigilance, to subdue and remove
the disease.

HORRIBLE MURDER AT WILnsroN, VIZ.
A most atrocious, cold. blooded murder
was committed at Williston, VI, last
Sunday night. On farm about nine
miles from Burlington and three miles
from Essex Junction, lived Mr.. Ephaiml
Griswold and his wife, both old people.
The aged couple had twice visited Calior-
MIA, and it is supposed had in the house
between $50, 600 and $50, 600 in money.
One day last week, a son-in.law of Mr..
Griswold, residing in Canada. visited the
old couple, bringing with him two men,
who were tendered the hospitality of the
old farmers bU lrd. The sun-in-law and
his companions remained at the farm
house until Saturday evening, when they
took the cars for Montreal, accompanied
by Mr. Griswold, who had determined to
visit his daughter in Canada Or Mon
day morning, one OF The neighbors, having
o:casion to visit Mr.. Griswod, called at
the house, and seeing no signs of activity
about the premises opened one Of the
windows, when fearful scene was pres
ented The house was in the utmost dis
order, and great FLASHES Of blood lay upon
the floor. breaking in the door he dis
covered unmistakable signs of murder,
and following the trail OF blood, which
began at the bed and led to an outer door,
he passed into the woodshed, where the
body OF Mrs. Grswold lay wrapped in Il
piece OF old carpet. She had been stab
tod a.rtcn hDp, md hcr ,hull was broken
IN several places. The alarm was at once
raised, and during Monday the greatest
excitement prevailed in the vicinity. Up
Oh going up stairs, little girl, who had
been living in the family, was found lock-
ed in her chamber. The general suppos-
ition is that the son-in-aw is Implicated
in the murder, and that he employed the
two men who accompanied him to accom-
plish the horrible deed. 1t is believed
that the two men who started on the car,
on Saturday, with Mr.. Griswold, left the
train at Essex Junction, etraced Their
steps TO the farmhouse and committed
the tiendsh crime.

The week presents another terrible
list OF railroad murders, which are getting
to be Of almost daily occurrence now.
One OF the worst we ever had, if we con-
slider tie mhuman recklessness which
caused it, occurred on the Long Island
railroad, between Winfield and Jamaica,
Monday morning The conductor of the
up-train tried tn get one station further
than the timetable allowed him, before
meeting the other train, hoping that the
other would be behind time. 1t proved
to be on time, and the result was terri
bic smash up, five persons killed, and ten
or twelve dangerously wounded. The
employees Of the road saw the impending
calamity, and saved themselves by jump
ing from the train.

ton.

NERGlNNEs, AUG. 3Oth, 1885.
MR, c. MBRlDGE In an article in
this weeks Mlddlcbury Register it is al
legged that | was, at my own request NOM
mated in the democratic convention lately
held in Bristol, for States Attorney, and
that the President OF the convention so
asserted. 1t is too late to reply through
that paper. and wish simply to say that
| never requested, authorized or desired
that nomination: that | never directly or
indirectly had any communication with
the President OF that Convention in re-
gard to the matter Of its nominations, nor
did ever in any manner intimate to any
person that would accept Il nomination
if offered me. No man had less agency
or responsibility in that nomination than
myself and never having been officially
informed of it nor asked to accept it, and
never having seen it Published in any pa
per, have not deemed it my duty to take
any notice Of it. Please publish the fol.
lowing letter and obhge
Your ob't, Servant,
G.. w. GRANpEY.
Aug 30. 1865
Mr. GRANpEY, SIR IL was President
of the Bristol convention, and | hay. just
seen the article in the Register concerning
your nomination. No man in that con-
yention pretended to have had any COM
munication with you on the subject OF
your nomination SO far Us | heard and
the statement that said it was made al
your request, is wholc!y false.
Yous Truly, GEORGE ADAMS.
OF the communication to which the
above is a reply, we can only say that it
crept into the Register in our absence and
could never have appeared had it receiv
ed our personal inspection, or the notice
Of the gentleman whom we left in our
chair. 1t Is no unusual thing for the
Democrats Of this county to put Repub-
lican, on their ticket, and as our memory
serves us, nobody has thought it deserving
of notice in any way. IN this case the
only ground for it is in the allegation that
the nomination was solicited by Gen.
Grandey. This we could not have be-
lievcd without evidence even Us full and
unquestionablc as that presented on tie
other side. Soliciting and accepting
nominations from d mocrats to oppose
regular Republican nomination, merits
and must receive the Reproduction and con-
tempt Of all honorable men. There Is
no reason to believe that this is a case Of
the kind.

TdE TRIAL OF JEFF. DAvIs.-The
trial Of Jefferson Davis will take place
before United States circuit court, but
the particulars have not yet been dcsig-
mated. There seems TO be no import
ance attached to the fact that the grand
jury of the District of Columbia, some
months ago, found true bill against him
for constructive treason, in sending his
troops TO operate against Washington,
i'll the summer of 1864. The grand Jury
of the court at Knoxville, Tennessee. has
indicted him for treason, for there Davis
harangued the people against the United
States government. The trial, however,
Cannot now take place at Knoxville, or
at any other place in that judicial district
for the reason that the vacancy OCCASION
cd bv the death of Associate Justice Ca
tron has not yet been filled. AS the
military operations against the United
States were objected by orders given
from Richmond, it is probable that the
trial will take place in Virginia, at Nor
folk, IN which event Chief Justice Chase
will preside, as that state is embraced in
the jupicial circuit court assigned to him.
