Neo England Fair.

The New England Fair held at |
Manchester, n. H.. last week was a
magnificent success. The crowd in |
attendance was enormous, and
there was on exhibition the best
result of New England enterprise
in the line of stock, agriculture,
manufactures and the fine arts.
The display of cattle WAS very ex-
tensive, and some Of the herds
would do credit to the stock breed
ers of any country. There was
any number of fine stock horses on
the ground, and the display OF fine
driving teams both single and
double made one grow faint at the
idea of goinG a-toot any longer.
We are proud to say that Yer
mont stood foremost in the ranks in
her exhibition Of horses, cattle and
sheep, and there is no doubt that
during this fair she has added
largely to her splendid reputation
as a producer of the best stock i'll
New England. Her display OF
sheep was equal to the best and her
, cattle, especially the herds of short
horns, attracted great deal of at.
tention. The weather was delight.

tinlbered with hemlock, occupying an ell

the surface, disappearing in Il manner
similar to a load of dirt when the bot

no apparent cause, but it has certainly
sunk to the depth of about 40 feet, leav.

1t is usual wien such freaks of ma

mediately submerged by volumes OF wa

ena attends. The soil is of a clayey na-
tlre, aud the sides of the cllasaa formed
by the sinking. present smooth and
even appearance, as if huge spade
had been thrust down, and the earth
thrown out.

A wrestling match for $500 side,

A wrestling match for $500 a side,
tho Titusville Herald says, is proposed
between John IL. M'Laughlin, holder of
the wrestling champions belt in this
country and Harrison =. Comstock, a
California man now living in Washing
ton. Comstock is the challenger. No
place OF meeting has yet been deternin-
ed on. j. II. M'Laughliu has gone TO
Albany, N. Y, to settle preliminaries'
He wants the match to coule oft in Ii
tusyille, while Constock prefers Wash
iugton or Alexandria. The match will
probably come off the latter part Of this
month. OF the parties to this gymnas-
tic exhibition the Herald says:-
"Mr. Mclaughlin is familiarly known
here, having given public exhibitions OF
bis skill and powers as a wrestler, in
matches with Homer Lane and James
Dewitt. Mclaughlin is Hercules in
stature and size; he stands 6 feet inch
u his boots, and hls weight is $50, with
a powerful development aud ruddy coun-
tcnauce indicative of perfect ply ysical
bealth. He has followed the trade OF
blacksmith ami marble cutting, and
served during the whole war, going in
as a private and coming out with the
rank Of Major. lie boasts that he never
touchet glass of liquor, nor ooes be
use tobacco iu any torn. When pre-
pariug tor contest he subjects himself
to stlict training. His exercise consists
of a rapid walk of not less than 20 miles
day, in all weatheys, to Improve the
wind aud harden the muscles aud induce
free perspiratioa. His diet consists O:
rare beet or leau mutton, Graham bread,
s1tt boiled eggs, aud beef tea, course
of regimen observed for several success
sive weeks. II also takes a rock salt
bath every morning, which for muscular
development aud action in connection
with the diet aud exercises spoken Of
are. simple as they seem, all-sufhcieut to
fit him fer the most arduous contest,
which sometimes last for several hours.
Mr. Comstock is au expert, is said to be
heavier man than his antagonist, and
the coming match will be awaited with
a good deal Of interest"
The match is to come off at TitusviIle,
Dec, 9th, between M'Laughlin and one
j. j. Benjamin who is backed by Com
stock, square hold, best two in three, for
$500 "a side and the championship of
America. We are thinking of challeng-
ing the winner.
