BAFEE--1hc annual gathering Of the common
schools this year took the form Of basket pic
mic At the suggestion of our worthy Superin-
lendent w \ Boyce' ESD, preparations have
been going on in the various districts for several
weeks TO dine at Wliamstown Springs. The
mineral spring Of Barre was first spoken Of, but
as Mr.. Bruce had not completed his hotel, it was
thought best to wait till the fine new building he
is at work upon is finished, who'd he may be sure
Of plenty Of company.
AZ an carly hour Tuesday Of last week Barre
Common was surrounded by recruits and supplies
from the various parts Of the town, conveyed in
all sorts fvehclcs--irom the elegant coach and
four Of Downing TO the pony wagon, each con-
tanning passengers from thirty.fyc downwards
On tho arrival Of the Montpelier Cornet Band
Superintendent Boyce, assisted by DR.. Jackson
who acted as Marshal Of the day, formed the com
pany into line and began the march
The number Of teams is yariously given at from
100 to 300. An informant in Wliamstown
counted at one point 22O in the procession, and
estimated the struggling ones at as many more.
And this is possible, for there were many along
the route who, seeing the crowd, suspended work,
took up their nags and steadlastly set their faces
towards the music At sight Of such throng,
and SO many bright and beautiful faces, nature
dopuei her hest Auoust suit Of green. and olJ
S,l himself veilel his f,ce No thopgb he cared mo,
TO compete with the Light md purity Of 60 many
bright eyes.
Aitera pleasant ride of two hours, we reached
the Gulf Spring House where our friends Lang
