The interior of the Methodist church
is now the most pleasing and inviting
audience room in Castleton. The fresco
paper used in its decoration is OF an ele'
CANT and tasteful design, and was fur
nished by Messrs. Tuttle & Co, with
whom, no doubt. you are acquainted. The
paper was laid by Mr.. J. Howard, OF Rut-
land. without blot, blemish or wrinkle,
or any such thing. The outlay OF money |
on this structure has made vast improve
ment outside and in the interior. Public |
worship will be resumed in this house
next Sabbath.
Twenty lovers of music went from
here to Joslin Hall, in Poultney, to W.T.
ness the grand finale of the Normal Mnsic
School, last Friday night. Similar dele
cations were there from Whitehall, Gran
Vile, Rutland, Fairhayen, and Pawlet, to
say nothing of the lesser representatives
from the towns of Hubbardton, Hebron,
Middletown, Wells and Hampton. The
music was charming; the audience were
delighted, as indicated by frequent
rounds of applause. Certain vocallsts IN
this section, and some from the city, won
fresh honors on the occasion.
-"Excelsior" must have been ia a dis
lanidated condition last Tuesday morning,
after reading and measuring our long
"stretch ofladiectives' on him, and the
important question of "cheap notoriety,"
as introduced in the HERALD by him for
discussion q few days since. What a
'muddle" he was in without regard to the
"liouid bliss" he enjoyed for season. 1t
| is wonder that so wise and clear head
as he propels through the world should
become muddled or puddled. We admit
that we are after him, and that the dis
lance between him and us ia not great.
In compliance with written request
signed by numerous citizens of Castleton,

sents. the former of elocution and the lat
ter of music, will doubtless ensure them
an appreciative and paying audience
and one complimentary TO them as artists
of rare ability in elocution and music.

: of Barrows & Graves, has purchased
site near the depot at Hy deville, on whicI
to erect building and machinery for tn
purpose of manufacturing all kinds o

an accession to the business interests

better for Mr. Graves had he located him

words of an every day maxim, Mr.. G
probably understands his own bushes
:. best.
