The democracy lhave trotted gu. the
annual number of roosters this fall, not
withstanding there is sure to be some
thirty or forty majority against them in
the next House Of Representatives.
They found their jollity on the fact that
they will have some tweuty;-or more
members in the next House than in the
present one. A portion of these are
gained by the admission to the polls of
a certain class Of rebels in the Southern
States, like those in Kentucky who at a
demonstration they hadi last week, rails
ed and carried a rebel confederate flag
in their procession. Those are "gains"
which will not prove great blessings to
the democracy, as the.more respectable
of them are already we'll aware. Their
other "gains" in the northern States are
almost entirely made from divisions
among the republicans, as take for in
stance the Michigan district which has
elected a democrat to Congress, but
which nevertheless gave on State ticket
over two thousand republican majority.

Mr.. GREELEY's SUCCESS IN AGRICUL-
TURE.-At a late meeting Of the Farm
ers' club Mr.. Greeley exhibited pump
kin of his own raising As it embodied
his solitary and browning success, after
several years of discouraging failure IN
pumpkin culture, the club surrounded it
with uncovered heads and mingled emo
tions Of surprise, admiration and envy.
1t was a snperb fruit, and when MIR. G.'s
hat was was plac ed on it, to illustrate its
size and symmetry, the hat and pump
kin seemed SO perfectly adapted to each
other, and together produced so start
ling an effect, that several enthusiastic
members swore that they would have
known who raised that pumpkin if they
had seen it anywhere. 1t is to be photo
graphed by Quincy, and the next years
Tribune subscribers will receive copies.
The pumpkin was the hattering product
of one bushel of seed planted on the
farm off in Champagne. Soon after
poisoning the vine manifested an incli-
nation to wither 1t was thereupon trans
planted TO large flower pot and remov-
ed to the town residence of its founder.
For some time it pinned and dropped,
and they sat up nights with it expecting
that every moment would be its last, but
every moment turued out not to be its
last, and with careful nursing it finally
rallied and came up to maturity, as cher
ished and tough pumpkin at ever grew.
DR.. Sixhammers suggested that the re-
suit of Mr.. G.'s indomitable struggle
with this pumpkin, showed how every
city family could provide itself with
pumpkin pie. He hoped to see the day
when every window sill, in every city,
would be adorned with fructifying pump
kin-pots, and every workman's cottage
uncovered in pumpkin vines.-Mark
Ticain.

A CASE OF HYDRoPHoBIA.-1n New
York, Thursday evening a girl Of twelve
years was observed on the street acting
in strange manner. She was barefoot
ed, and attracted a crowd by groaning
and crashing her teeth. An officer took
her to the station, not suspecting the
real cause Of her strange conduct.
Scarcely had the girl entered the Police
Station than she began to creep about
the Office on her hands and knees, utter
ing sounds somewhat similar to the yelps
of dog in pain. She endeavored to
bite the hands of the officers who sought
to remove her to another room, and ere
ated quite an exciting scene by her sin
gnlar actions and cries. A physician
was called, and he at once pronounced
it genuine case of hydrophobia. Sht

VERMONT CENTRAL LOCOMOTIVES
Within a period of eight months there
have been turned out from the VT Cen
trail locomotive works, (beside the usual
repairs) five new and finely finished
locomotives, the last one being named in
honor of Hon. j d. Hatch Of Burling-
ton, and which rs just completed. They
are all of similar design and finish and
will stand favorable comparison with
any of other manufacturers. We I'M
derstand that six more are under head
way in the company's shops.
The managers of the Vermont Central
Company, have in their service over 100
locomotives, which are in constant use on
some portion of the 400 miles under their
control. During the months of August
and September they made a distance Of
104,331 miles. 134,172 miles of this
distance was made on passenger account,
and $780, miles on freight, wood and
gravel account this is equal to l6 times
the distance around the earth, and is
nearly the distance from this globe, to
the moon and back.-,S. Adams Messen-
