THE Ce1atenaT5an.-
To which A. A. Nicholson Eeq, re
sponded in the following poem:
THE cENrENAR1AN.
He stands upon the shadowy verge
OF ife's remotest shore,
While ancient mem'ries Ger him surge
With deep and solemn roar!
And one again he seems to live
Amid the fervii glow
That lighted up the ways of life t.
One Hundred Years ago!
The summer skies seemed fairer then
The birds of Spring more gay, ...
And every hope was loftier
Than those of stern to-day!
And each pulsation Of the heart
Was quicker in its flow,
And yielded back a deeper thrill
One Hundred Years ago!
The eyes that sparkled brightest then
No longer wake or weep,
And locks that paled the ravens plane
Ale frosted where they sleepI
The blandest smile has wand in night
The step infrm and slow,
That led the wild and giddy dance
One Hundred Years ago.
".
He fingers near the stormy past
Like mourner near a tomb,
Still watching for some olden joy
To tighten up the gloom
Yet from the past no rays sublime
His ye4rning heart can know
Like those that gilded life's young dream
One Hundred Years ago,
Like ancient forest tree he stands
Cnrlfted by the blast, y .a-a
And links with centenarian strands .....
The Present and the Past. -...
And who among this festive throng
His wintry years shall sun,
And bear the burden he has borne,
One Hundred Years to come
The lateness of the hour compelled the
posponement Of further remarks, but we
are requested to say by the committee OF
arrangements that some prepared by
gentlemen to be delivered on the occasion,
and omitted for the reason we have men
toned, will be furnished the press for
publication at an early day.

REMARKS.

Although the amount of stock at market il
somewhat smaller than last week, there is no N
provement in demand or prices. Indeed, we are
not sure that trade is not even more dull than If
was las, Tuesday. In cons quenee of the large
supply and the low prices many butchers bought
nearly to weeks stock last week, and consequent
! ly are either not present or are not disposed to
buy more unless the seller will offer inducements
for so-doing. One butcher said he had IS head Of
cattle at home Of lastweeks purchases. Some OF
the dTovers charge the reporters with not printing
the market of last week h alf black enough. That
they lot money then and are losing this week

farmers think they ought to have about the same

Satisfied audience listened at the Opera

Davie Butler, native of Rutland and a
highly honored citizen at present of Mad

not begin to do it justice, therefore we
present it TO our leaders entire this morn

it's telling and forcible truths.
After the address of Rev. DR.. Butler,
poem, from the pen of Mrs. Julia G. r.
Dorr apr0p0S to the occasion was read by
her son, Russell r. Dorr. The poem was
a fine effort of the gifted authoress, and
the rendering of it by Mr.. Dorr stamped
him as the possessor of elocutionary
powers which, if cultivated, would make
him distinguished. We shall publish
this poem tomorrow morning.
