Col. Wright.

Last week we merely noticed the fact
that Col. Ed. Wright, Of this county, is
candidate for the Office Of Secretary
Of State, subject to the action OF the
Convention to assemble June goth.
TIE wish that he should present his
name to be used in that connection,
has been 50 frequently and generally
expressed that he has consented to the
arrangement.
COL Wright came TO this State about
IL years ago, aud Is thoroughly identi
fed with The interests Of the State. He
was chosen to represent this county in
the Sixth, Seventh. Eighth, and Elev,
enth General Assemblies of the State.
AT the last county convention he was
selected as candidate without any op
position, and was, on the assembling of
the Legislature chosen Speaker oil the
House Of Representatives, ove' which
he presided with marked ability and
success. His industry, integrity and
ability, together with his thorough
knowledge Of the workings Of our State
ard county governments render hin
eminently qualified to till the position
for which he is candidate.
Col. Wright was, at the organization
Of the 9th Iowa Infantry. appointed
Major Of that regiment. He was pro
NOTED about the time the regiment wa
transferred from the Mississippi to th>
Shenandoah Valley. He commanded
the regiment during most Of the timt
i. was in the service, and remained with
It until it was mustered on. at the Gloss
of the war. As military officer nc
gained the esteem of those under his
charge, aud the confidence of bis su.
peror officers.
Added to al this the Col is sound
on the onestions before the country.
We hope he may, ani expect he will,
receive TIE suanort Of the Convention.

VRRMoNTRRs IN CALIFoRNIA,-Amonr

judge of the supreme court of California.

These three men are undoubtedly the
largest dairy farmers in the world.
They have farm in Marin county,
known as the Point Reyes ranch, on the
coast about twenty-five miles north of
San Francisco, Of over seventy-one
thousand acres of land, forty thousand
Of which Is very choice dairy land, and
being bounded on three sides by salt
water receives the benefits of the fogs
and moisture from the Pacific ocean,
which keeps the feed good for dairy pur-
poses fully eight months in the year.
The other thirty. one thousand acres is a
wild and, in many parts, a heavily tim
bered land, but some ten thousand acres
of it is well adapted for sheep grazing,
there beiug herd Of nearly nine thous-
and running thereon at present and
that thrive on the land the year round
without care except herding at night.
These farmers expect, within three years,
to milk upwards of four thousand COWS,
twice day. Mr.. Howard, who has
been East this summer to visit friends
in his native State, for the first time
since he went to California, has recently
been inspecting the cheese manufactures
in New York, Massachusetts,, and in his
own state with the view OF building one
on their farm He has adopted plans
for erecting one of one thousand cows
capacity, to be in operation next spring.
The making OF butter is the principal
business on his farm, the establishing Of
a cheese dairy of one thousand COWS be.
Ing an experiment; the result of which
will influence future operations. With
such an example before them as butter
dairy Of three thousand cows, we sup
pose that the people of the young and
growing State Of California will not, as
at present, import one half the butter
they consume, but supply their own
market. Mr.. Howard informs US that
as good butter is made there as in the

daughter Of Mr.. Clark Smith was killed
in her fathers grist mill. She entered
the place with shawl thrown over her

upright revolving shaft which was in
rapid motion, play fully put the ends Of
the shawl around it, pressing them down
tightly with her hands Instantly tue
shawl became fastened around the shaft,
and she was drawn up to it and whirled
around with iightening-like swiftness,
her limbs flying out and striking against

they were broken and crumbled into a

RAILROAD BRIDGE OVER THE HUDSON.
On the afternoon of the 22d the new
railroad bridge over the Hudson at Al
bany was opened informally. A train
consisting of locomotive and two new
passenger cars, with baggage car, took
over several directors of the work, some
Of the officers of the road interested and
a few invited guests. The charter or
ganizing the company which builds the
bridge was obtained in 1858, but the
matter was in dispute until 1868, in
volying long course of wearisome liti-
cation. In May, 1864, the construction
OF the bridge was commenced. There is
an open structure Of truss work 202O
feet in length and supported on q piers,
or 25, including that at each end. The
piers are so or 90 feet high, from the
base, and the floor timbers of the bridge
are rs feet above ordinary tide water,
and S or s feet above the point reached
by the highest freshets. Add to the
above length the approaches on each
side, and the whole length of the struc-
ture is nearly one mile. The cost of this
structure thus far is estimated at 81
100000, including the purchase of CON
siderable tract of land. 1t is expected
that the roads converging at that point
will run their cars over it by the LIST of
March.

THB MusIcAL CONVENTION AT PoULr-
NBY.-The lovers of music in Poultney,
and vicinity have enjoyed rich treat
during the past week.
The Union Musical Association of
Granville, and vicinity, held its seventh
Convention in Joslin Hall, commencing
Tuesday Feb 2Othl and continuing four
days.
The exercises were under the direction
OF Prof. W. G. Perkins of Boston, assist
ed by his two brothers, H. l.. Perkins OF
Springfield, Mass, and J. +, Perkins OF
Boston. The last named gentleman Of
6Ciated as pianist, besides gratifying
the audience frequently in the exercise
Of a remarkably deep and rich bass
voice.
Mr. II. L. Perkins contributed largely
to the enjoyment OF the occasion by
humorous songs, and also took part in
duets, trios, and quartets. Misses Keyes
and Carey of Boston, added not little
to the musical entertainment.
The great advantage Of these conven-
tions. apart from seeing and hearing
musical celebrities. and so learning by
example. is the thorough d,W of those
attending them in the execution Of
music, both sacred and secular.
Prof Perkins is very thorough, and
insists on the accurate performance of
every portion Of every piece, in time,
tone and expression. Atthe same amt
he is so Invariably pleasant as to secure
the hearty good will Of all.
Two concerts were given by the Con-
yeut.on gu Thursday and Friday even
ings These were entirely successful in
every respect On Friday evening, es-
pecialiy the Hall, capable Of seating
eight hundred persons, was crammed to
its utmost capacity. The interest was
sustained to the close, when, after sing
iug the Old Hallalujah Chorus, the au-
dience united III singing the doxology to
Old Hundred, and were dismissed with
the berediCtion. So ended this most
pleasant musical festival
