Finfeld are new men upon the route
Capt. Stannard is gentleman of large
experience as an ocean commander, his
last five years upon the briry deep hav-
ing been spent in the service Of Uncle
Sam, under Admiral Farragut In the
navy, during the war of the rebellion.
He is gentleman of dignifed bearing
and courteous demeanor, qualities which
cannot fail to command the respect and
admiration of passengers. Cara. Mcintosh
has for number of years pest had COM
mand of steamers engaged III the Cleve
land and Lake Superior trade, and but
little is therefore known of him hereaway
He comes highly recommended, however
which is good passport to popular ia
vor. Capt Fin6eld has had command Of
the propeller Boscobel for two seasons, we
believe, and has thus far given perfect
satisfaction to the travelling community.
Of the clerks, the names of Chas. q.
Thompson, j. A. Bemis, ii. Pates and
10 Wilkins are as familiar as household
words along the West Shore. They are
affable and agreeable gentlemen. and
merit the popularity they enjoy. Messrs
Clark of the Comet and Doren of the.
Orion, are new candidates for public ia
vor. Among the stewards we observe
the name of that prince of caterers, J.
Driscoll, who has been in Mr.. Goodrich S
employ for years, and always given un-
bounded satisfaction. He is assigned to
the Sheboygan. Michael Crosson, first
mate of the Alpena, is also veteran in
Mr.. Goodrich service, and we venture the
assertion that another man more pecu-
liarly fitted for his position cannot be
found along the entire chain of lakes.
We have already, in former notices,
spoken SO favorably of Greg. Hurson,
Esq, the genial general agent OF. the line
at this port, that our stock Of adjeotives
has become exhausted. Suffice it to say
that he improves with long acquaintance,
and becomes more popular among our
business men each succeeding year of his
management.

there was the usual contest for prizes Tor rapid

the school, having earned their discharge, or been

Campbell's Mcnngerie and Circus.

The best Endorsement of public exhibition is
what the press and people say Of it after it is
gone. Speaking of Canpbell's Menagerie and
Circus, which is to be in Montpelier on Monday
the 2sth inst, the Rutland Hraid of June 18TH
says
d" The nultifarious duties Of an editor have pre-
vented us from hitherto giving expression 20 the
qualification the recent exhibition OF this Com
pauy in Rutland day or two since, afforded us
We believe we are but cchoing the opinion Of the
public at large, in saying that in all its depart
ments and details, it is the best canvas exhibition
that has visited Vermont. We do not remember
% have seen better class of our citizens present
at any similar exhibition, and the excellent order
and decorum enforced, together with the superior
and greatly diversified performances, were the
theme of general observation. Ii is, as its bills
claim it to be, " the exomplar of canvas exhib-
tons, and we hope it may be the iorerunner of
that reform greatly needed in entertainments
of this description There is really no reason
why circus properly and respectfully conducted,
should be offensive TO the moral sense OF any one,
and We are pleased TO say that Messrs. Campbell
a. Co. have set the example, and that the public
appreciate and applaud their efforts.
We were surprised 10 see 50 large menagerle
and one containing such a variety Of strange aud
rare animals, collected from every land, connected
with the circus and We were puzzled 70 know
/ how the mana cement could combine two shows of
such magnitude, either one of which would be
worth the admission Fee But their ample and
commodious arrangements for the accommodation
of the public, no matter scarcely in what numbers
they assemble, and the very liberal patronage they
/ have received, partly solve the problem.
