FARHAyEN.-To a person unacquaint-
ed with the magnitude of the business
carried on in this place, my statements
would appear fabulous
There are now worked by the citizens
of this place AZ many aS seventy five slate
quarries, the smallest of which employ ten
hands--the larger from 100 to 100 each :;
and, what makes the business better, the
the quarries are all of them good ones
Among those getting out the most states
are Col Aliens, Capt. Shcldon's, Scotch
Hill Co. and Snodowu Besides the roofing
slate there are three large mills for saw
ing slate, turning, nc. also three mills
for marketing mantlea, table tops, &c.
There is, perhaps, more of this business
done here than III any other town in this
county Each mill have artists at the
helm who understand their business.
The immense amount Of slate quarried
here creates much other business, and
there have been erected this spring "a fur
mace aud machine shop. There is, per-
hapS. no town in Vermont that has for the
last four years advanced - fast i'll that
time. She has, perhaps, more than quad
rupled her population, and now will
doubtless number from 5000 to $500.
Considering she has less than one half the
number square miles of Rutland, we feel
justified in taking our position as the Sec
ond town in Rutland county and if it
were not for Grm's motto, "Size is the
Measure of Power" we should soon ex-
pect to be the leading town in Vermont.
As it Is, We can feel az large as any. The

Union Meeting of the Second Vermont
Volunteers in that city Friday evening,
was complete success. The principal
feature of the occasion was the address by
Colonel Charles Ii. Joyce, of Rutland, at
City Hall, which was attended by large
number of citizens, by whom the
speech, an able effort, was thoroughly APP
preciated, and received with enthusiasm.
The supper, in the evening" at the Amer
lean Hotel, though confined principally
to members of the regiment, was spirit

drew out many fine responses.

THE EXECUTION At WINDsoR.-The
execution of Hiram Miller, who was con-
fined for about a year in Rutland jail, is
to take place within the walls of the
State prison, at Windsor, on Friday, 25th,
between the hours of 1 a. IN and
p. m.
His crime is that OF double murder,
committed at Ascutneyville, on the morn
ing of Tuesday. July %, 1861 The vic
Tins were Mr.. and Mrs Joshua G. Gowen,
who We're respectable, well to do farming
people, between fifty and Sixty years OF
age.
Mr.. Gowen was found dead in his kitch-
en-, his body being fearfully gashed; and
his wife was discovered dead, lying ON the
bed. A young daughter in a trundle bed
heard the noise and recognized the voice
of the assassin, who for some unknown
reason failed to kill the only loving wit
ness in the house, save her brother, a
young lad.
Suspicion at once settled upon Miller
WHO was known TO nave worked Tor MIR
Gowen, and whose voice the girl affirmed
positively she knew.
He was arrested before noon that day,
in Windsor; taken to Rutland for safe
keeping tried last June; convicted and
sentenced to be hung within the walls OF
the State prison, according to law.
In his confinement at Windsor, he has
been quiet and urconcerned, protesting
innocence and resignation to an inevita-
bility, under the Ruler of all events We
are informed that, up to this hour, he APP
pears cheerful, giving no signs of depres-
sion disposition to admit guilt Of the
horrid deed
The execution we suppose is to be at
tended only by certain legal witnesses
and officials designated By the statntn al
though the applicants for admission to the
spectacle are numerous.
The scaifold to be used is the same from
which John Ward dropped, one yea,
ago, and from which two others have
within few years paid the penalty o
blood
Surrey W. Stimson, Esq, of Ludlow
Sheriff of Windsor County and two o
his deputies, are charged with the painful
duty Of the execution

table was first committed to the embraces
of Old Ocean-as is evinced by the fact
that soon after it was laid the insulation
resistance rose to 2300 megohms, and has
since been gradually increasing until it
is now 5000 megohms per nautic-l mile.
This improvement in the insulation of
the deep.sea cable is believed to be main
ly due to the coldness or diminished
temperature to which it is subjected at
great ocean depths. The insulation re-
sistance of the portion of the cable con-
Meeting Duxbury and st. Pierre is much
less, namely, 1900 megohms per nautical
mile. If one would inquire of cable
electrician-whatis a megohm ? he might
with propriety be told that it is million
ohms. Should be still further inquire
and what is an ohm suitable reply
would bet is the yardstick of the cleo
trician by which he measures the electric
condition of conductors, and which may
be represented by round wire of pure
copper one.twentieth of an inch in dia-
meter and 240 feet in length, at the tenn
.perature of sixty degrees of the Fshren-
heit thermometer; while q megohn, by
which be measures the resistance of in
sulators, is unit, the length of which is
million times as great Af.er being
duly initiated into the interesting mys-
teries of cable working and cable book
keeping, the members of the party par
took Of a sumptuous repest, given by the
gentleman in charge. During this re-
past they were agreeably entertained by
thrilling accounts of various incidents
and hairbresdth escapes during the event
full voyage in laying the cable. Mr..
Brown and Mr.. Gaines are gentlemen OF
long experience in connection with the
Malta and Alexandra cables. Mr..
Smith, who represents the interests of the
telegraph construction and maintenance
company, has assisted in laying most of
the important cables, from the first one
that crossed the channel, to this last
great triumph. The number of persons
engaged in conducting the affairs OF the
office, and of the land lines, are about
dozen in all some of them on duty at
all hours of the day and night-forit
must be remembered that when it ia mid
night at Duxbury, it is daylight at Brest,
(France), so that telegram dated, like
the one given above, at 5 o'clock and
twenty minutes p M, Paris time, is really
sent at II clock and twenty minutes p.
M, Duxbury or Boston time. 1t may be
deemed worthy of remark that in the
transmission Of messages for the public
the time recorded is that of Paris, in
business for the service of the cable com
pany, Greenwich time-the same as on
the original cable between Ireland and
wfoundland-and in the local busi-
ness Of the Duxbury Office, Boston, times.
After cordially thanking the courteous
and efficient manager and his associates,
the gentlemen constituting the party ter
minated their long to be remembered
visit at the Cable House in Duxbury.

A Great Invention.

An invention is announced which, if
successful, will be of inestimable impor-
tauce in the affairs of newspapers. An
exchange says M. Gensoul, an ingenious
Frenchman, has invented "steno'
graphic prese." The reporter sits at
something like the keyboard of piano.
forte, and by applying his fingers to the
KEYS, prints the words as they fall from
the lips Of the speaker, syllable by syla-
BILE, on strip of paper which rolls along
underneath. When we say this we do
not. of course, mean that the words are
printed in letters. The keyboard ap-
pears to be divided into three parts of
eight keys each. The left side, worked
by. the four fingers Of the left hand, prints
signs which represent initial consonants;
the right, worked by the fingers of the
right hand, prints final consonants; and
the middle, acted on by the two umbs,
prints the medium vowels. We gather
that something like phonetic system OF
signs is employed A few months prac-
tice is said to enable any operator to fol-
low the most fluent speaker with ease.
We ought to say that NJ. Gensours sys-
tenn renders it unnecessary to transcribe
the copy. Just as with the phonetic sys-
tenn, il legibly written the compositor
can set up the speech in common type
from the printed slip furnished by the
machine. As TO the comparative ease Of
writing characters with pen, and print
ing them ia TIE way here described, we
can give no opinion.
