SCRIRO-
An Hour among the short.Horns.

A walk of an hour over the premises OF
John s. Emery, Esq, of Wallingford, sat
isfied us that he, more than any other
man of our acquaintance, is farming upon
high and improved principle, and that
1t will thereby benefit himself and the
community none can doubt. Probably
Rutland county cannot produce another
instance to compare with this. The full
bloods of Durhams now owned by him,
now numbers 10. Of course this does not
include several which he has disposed of,
nor some some which he has lost. "John"
remembers the truth of the saying, that
"thou that have must love-"
The large and commanding appearance
of his Durhams will repay you for the
expense and time incident to trip to bis
place.
Among.his stock may now be seen two
cows, four three-year olds, four two-year
olds, three yearlings and six calves, as
fine looking as any .ninteen that can be
found. A yearling bull out of the cele-
brated Cavalier, bred by J. III. Howard
of Thorndale stock notoriety, Littleton,
Mass, was particularly attractive. John
has received several premiums at our
county fairs, but this neither fatters nor
satisfies him, as he is still enlarging and
improving his herd. His swine too are
selected with reference to the same great
principle, improvement. He has now a
very fine specimen of a hog in the shape
of Suffolk boar Nor does this stop here,
his poultry is selected from among the
best and most approved breeds in the
country.
We do not know of another man who
raises in SO large quantity and so many
varieties of fruit, apples, pears, plums.
cherries, grapes, all of which were in full
blossom at the time of our recent visit.
To one in search of good cattle or who
desires the Improvement of his swine, we
would say visit the Otter Greek farm of
]. S. Emery.

Alright After the Presidents first call for
10000 troops, the citizens of Castleton
held meeting in the Brick Church,
in which there was much enthusiasm.
Speeches were made by DR.. Child, p. w.

and others. No one that was at that
meeting will fail to remember of the
delegation that went there from this place,
headed with martial music and banners,
with Manning Ware playing on the snare
drum AT that meeting some 90 put
down their names as willing to enlist for
their country, in day or two Mr.. Noble
from Tinmouth came and enrolled his
name, and the agreement was for officers
though none were elected, Hope, Howe
and Noble. Some one in their ardor
might have written to the New York
Times that they were elected. Itwas seon
found that this body of men would not be
needed for the LIST Regiment as there had
been enough offered of the Independent
Militia of Vermont to fill the Regiment
When the second call came most of these
men came forward with others and formed
what became Company B., I'd Vermont
Regiment, and elected James Hope, Cap.
tain John Howe, LIST Lieutenant; Enoch
E. johnson, I'd Lieutenant. Mr.. Noble
was not think member of Company b

His address was eloquent, classic, chaste

a beautiful tribute to the memory of Du-

the sacrifices of those who fell in defense
of our country in the late war. He spoke
of the eloquent language of the tattered
flags now decorating the walls of our
State capitol and the lessons which all
these evidences of the great price we paid
for the defense of our principles and lib

PoULTNEY.-Some idea of the trade
done at Joslin's store, Poultney, may be
derived from the fact that one day last

as customers. The reason for this i'm

keeps the largest and richest stock of
goods to be found in that vicinity.

Among the stories told Of Gen.
Thomas is one Of an incident which
occurred when he and his chief Of
staff, Gen. Garfield, were inspecting
the fortificatiOns of Chattanooga in
1868. They heard a shout, Hello,
mister! You! l want to speak to
yous" and General Thomas found
that he was the person addressed, by
an uncouth, backwoods, East Ten
nessee soldier. He stopped, and the
dialogue which ensued was as fol,
lows; "Mister, ! want to get o fur
lough,' "On what grounds do you
want to furlough, my man." II
want to 60 home to see my wife. -
How long since you saw your wifeY
Ever since [ enlisted, nigh on to
three months Three months!"
good naturedly; why. my good man,
1 haven't seen my wife for three
years" The East Tenesseean stop
ped whiting for a moment, and
stared incredulously; at length be
said: "Well, you see me and my
wife amt that kind" Even Gen.
Thomas grimness was not proof
against the laughter which he rode
away to conceal, leaving the astonish-
ed soldier without an answer. OF
course, it is General Garfield who
tells the story.

A strange Monster.

A strange monster was captured
recently in the river, opposite Can.
ton, by some fishermen in their seine
while dragging for fish. We know
not what to call it, or what it looks
like, or how to describe it, for it is
unlike any creature Of earth, air OF
water, that we have ever seen. 1t is
not fish, nor is it an alligator OF
crocodile, or turtle, it resembles
the pictures we have often seen in
books, Of the mythyical dragoon. Il
is a hideous-looking and apparently
savage monster-the last Of a past
age. 1t has a huge, Shiny, scaly
body, short, strong legs, and i'm
mense claws, long, serpent-like tail
and sharp teeth set in, like those Of
a saw. 1t chaws up ravenously ev-
erything with which it comes in con
tact, but seems 10th to leave the wat
er even in quest of food, and can only
be seen when drawn out by the chain
with which it is made fast. We
think it to be at least ten feet in
length, and weighs probably five
hundred pounds. When provoked
it makes anoise similar to sea lion.
The parties having it in charge
are having a laSge tub OF tank made
for it, and they intend to take it to
Quincy and st. Louis, for exhibition.
They have refused a thousand dollars
