Senator Edmunds returned on Sat-

"A young man named Melvin Car,
penter, Of Addison, recently attempted
to commit suicide He shot himself in
the left breast with rifle. The ball en-
tered just above the heart, passing be-
tween the third and fourth ribs and
through the lungs, and lodging under
the shoulder blade, whence it was ex-
traeted. The young man will probably
recover. The real cause of the act is
not known, though lady is said to be
concerned in the case.
The Banner says We would adj

Some two weeks ago an up train
from Island Pond was delayed by an ac-
cident a mile above the village. During
the delay swarm of bees lit on the fore
part of the engine, to the great confusion
of the engineer. There being no beeist
at hand, an Intellectual attempt was made
to dislodge them, and the train started
off with the swarm occupying place
the size of half bushel under the head
light. The officers being afraid to do
their duty this property was struggled
into the Queens Dominions without the

Fourth of July at Chester.

The people of Chester have determin-
ed TO celebrate the anniversary of our
national independence, on Saturday of
this week in true old fashioned patriotic
style, or after the manner predicted by
John Adams when the contest with Eng
land first began, by emusic, bonfres,
ringing of bells, firing of guns" &c
The President of the day is Hon. II. II.
Henry. Vice Presidents, Maj. William
Rounds, Col. Asa Wentworth, of Bel
lows Falls, G. A. Forbush, Esq, of
Springfield, Hon. John F. Deane of Cav
endish. Marshall, Geo. L. Fletcher
The orator Of the day will be Col. Chas.
II. Joyce of Rutland, and Rev. A. B.
Flanders will read the Declaration of
Independence, and Rev. Z. S. Foster,
toast master. The executive committee
are Hugh Henry, E. B. Lee, Geo. w.
Hadley, r. p. Pollard, G. P. Spaulding,
and j. Barnes. The music will be fur
nisbed by the Keene Cornet Band, which
is good guarantee for that department.
During the afternoon and evening there
will be music and dancing at Kelley's
hotel. There is also to be civic, mill
tary and masonic display, and at sun
rise, noon and sunset, the bells of the
town are to be rung and salutes fired,
and in the morning company of can

With the well known public spirit OF

with interest and enjoyment. The Rut-
land & Burlington railroad will carry
those attending the celebration for fare
one way, and should the weather be IA
vorable large crowd will doubtless be
in attendance.

AS l.. M. Woods workmen were
repairing his dam near the mouth of the
Quechee, in Hartland recently, the body
of male child, of perfect formation but
only day or two old apparently, was

Julius Frost of Vernon, met with a
serious loss on Thursday, June 18th, by
the burning of dwelling house nearly
finished, and barn and hop house. The
fire caught in the hop house, and the
wind blowing strongly, it soon reached
the barn and thence was driven ON to the
house, and the whole was burnt to ashes
in a very short time. The barn only
was insured, and that to a very small
amount, and it is stated that Mr.. Frost's
loss cannot be less than $4,000.

THE VERMONT STATE PRIsoN--A
correspondent of the Springfield Repub-
ticam furnishes that Journal with the fol-
lowing facts in relation to the inmates of
our State Prison
"There are SO prisoners confined here
at present So men and women. Among
the men is Horace Plumley, who killed
John Gilman, Jr., of Shrewsbury, and
will be hung upon the last Friday of
September, 1870. Ziba Plumley, his
father, and Frederick Plumley, charged
with the same offence, are also here, the
first serving a sentence for life, and the
latter twenty years term. Horace was
visited by friend, to-day, and cried bit
terly as he spoke of his execution. He
said that he would be perfectly happy if
his sentence was commuted to imprison-
ment for life at hard work. He spends
much of his time weeping and will not
probably live long if he continues in this
state. Judge Fisher, the states attorney
at the time of his conviction, looked in
to his cell, to-day. Plumley spoke very
bitterly of him. In this prison are like
wise Henry Welcome, another convicted
murderer, who has not yet been sentenc-
ed, and o. B. Clark, the Rutland forger
who had preparation for removing ink
marks, and made use of his skill in
changing 500 drafts into larger Ones
His last operation was swindle of some
$4,000 from the prominent banking
houses of VT. In going over the work
shops, found Clark finishing scythe
snath. He takes his imprisonment calm

THE EXECUTION AT WINDsoR.--A
full account Of the execution of Miller
at Windsor will be found on second page.
As was generally anticipated he neither
did or said anything remarkable in the
closing hours of his life. He was of a
low order of intellect, and if guilty, of
which none doubt that we have heard of,
died charging witnesses at his trial with
falsehood, and with lie upon his lips.

Moving Machines, &c.

Messrs. Clark q Chapman of this
place, are this year more than ever be-
fore better prepared to furnish farmers
with q complete set of haying machi-
merry, which the lateness of the season
must make still more necessary for the
farmer. We refer to their moving ma
chimes, hay tedders and horse rakes-
Their moving machine is the one which
took the first prize at the worlds exhi-
bition in Paris, and farmers who have
used it speak of it in high terms of
praise, and the fact that seventeen thou
sand of these machines were sold last
year is after all their best recommended
ton. Messrs. Clark & Chapman are al
DO the manufacturers of Billiards. Hay
Tedder, which is pronounced by those
who have used them as the best hav
spreader yet made. We believe they
are also the agents for the sale of horse
rake which is highly commended, the
name OF which has escaped our memory
as we write; so that any farmer can get
at this place the very best Of all the
heavy mate rails for gathering his hay.
Within few years it has become gen
orally conceded that early cut hay is the
best, and it should therefore be got be-
fore "dog days" set in if possible
With labor both high and scarce, the
need of machinery has become not only
greater, but is the most economical way
of gathering the crops, and hundred
dollars invested in moving machine
which will soon earn and pay for itself,
and then is still ON hand for future work,
can hardly be put to use in any other
way and secure, in so brief time, so
liberal return.

ENTHUSIASTICALLY citizens of Towns
bend are preparing for a real old-fash-
toned celebration July 9th. The exer-
cises will consist of music, speeches, &c.
SCOTS Battery will be out with full
ranks. A company of Infantry is being
raised, and there will probably be an en-
gagement between the two forces. The
exercises of the day will terminate with
fireworks in the evening.
On Thursday, the Goth, there was a
reunion of the Rawson family on the
site of the old homestead in the south
part of Dist. No. 2. The children,
grandchildren, and near relatives, to the
number of about 40 persons, came to-
gether from different States of the Union
one from Illinois, one from New
Hampshire, others from Rhode Island,
Massachusetts,, and different places, came
from their scattered homes to spend a
few hours on the spot where their child
hood was passed long years ago. What
tender recollections, what touching men,
cries must have been aroused in their
hearts as they gathered around the spot
where once stood their fathers house
now marked only by the old cellar and
few ruined walls-and as these gray
haired men and women, now parents and
grandparents, stood around the ruins Of
the old stone fireplace, and boiled their
tea and coffee over the old hearthstone
around which they had gathered as chill
dren many years ago, what thoughts
must have filled their minds. After the
party had all collected, sumptuous
dinner was spread under the shade of the
trees near the old house spot, and par
taken of with relish by all present, then
followed appropriate toasts. and respon-
SEES by different members of the family,
memories of the old time were revived,
and old stories told and pleasant social
intercourse filled up the hours of the af-
ternoon. One of the sons stated that
when his father came to that place there
were twelve children in the family, two
were added, thus making fourteen chill
dren, of whom twelve are now living
whose ages amount to S04 years, or an
average Of 67 years. This is the first
meeting of the family, and there were
many absent ones, but at the close they
voted to meet again in two years, when
they hope to have larger company
Toward the close of the day the party
separated and started for their several
homes, each one no doubt feeling amply
repaid for the time and expense incurred
for this most interesting visit.
