GRAFToN.-We learn from one who
was present, that on Monday evening last,
Mr.. John 5. d. Taylor of st. Adams read
his Poem, The Universal Yankee" in
Grafton, to u highly delighted and intelli-

touching flashes of wit and humor, and
was greatly applauded from beginning to
end. 1t certainly will stake down" any
assembly or crowd in any city or town
anywhere. Suppose we have it here in
Bellows Falls?
