A CARD.-Wc desire to express our
thanks to our friends in Bridport, Mid
dlebury, Salisbury, Waltham, Vergenncs,
Ferrisburgh and Addison, for their gen.
erous aid to us under the affective provi-
dence by which we were deprived of the
comforts of home through losses by fire.
We have delayed this expression of our
gratitude for reasons which seemed to us
sufficient. c. =. ELMER.

We have to thank the managers of
the Central New Haven Cheese Factory
Company for a generous slice of their
capital cheese, which certainly surpasses
in quality any that we have been accus-
toned to see from private diaries We
hear good accounts of this new factory,
which now uses the milk Of about 325
cows and has the prospect of charging
its operations next season. The maker,
Mr. G. W. King, is from the Central New
York factories and fully understands his
business.

INsTINcT--lt will be remembered tina,
about ono year ago as French's Circus
aud Egyptian Caravan were passing
through the town of Salisbury, the ele,
plant Empress" in crossing Il bridge fcl
through aud was somewhat injured
Since that time new bridge has beer
built over the stream at that point
Thursday when en- route to Brandon
Empress" had reached the bridge, sht
refused to proceed, and all attempts OF
the part of the driver to compel her t,
cross were futile, and it became necessar,
to take her around, some five miles, owe
another bridge, causing so much of de
lay that she reached Brandon barely il
time for the afternoon exhibition.
